Chapter: 22 Revenge

Paula (Cashes)

"Mommy!" I put the phone up to my ear happy to hear Bria voice.

"Baby!!" I call out laughing as she giggled. "I miss you my little lady bug." I smile. Dewayne chuckled and walked out as he was on the phone with Denise.

She's a nice girl. Through out this week I talked to her and she admitted she liked me.

"I miss you more." She starting to talk more faster now. I suppress a tear and nod.

"I want my baby back." I say to her.

"I want my mommy back." She copy, and I laugh.

"How are you?" I ask sitting down.

"We been havin fun mommy! Nana took us horse riding."

"Oh yeah?"

"Mhm and this man held me while we rode."

"I wish I can be there."

"You can!!" She say out loud "I miss you so much! I'm ready to come back home."

"Soon." She sigh.

"How soon?"

"Soon enough." I smile.

"Okay." She sounded sad. I sigh not knowing what to say. It was silent on the phone for awhile up until Dewayne rushed in the room.

"Fuck! Man fuck!" He look around for his shoes.

"Oooh is that Wayne! Can I talk-"

"Call me later okay baby?"

"But momm-"

"Promise Bria."

"Yes." She say.

"Okay I gotta go! Love you!"

"Love you to." I hung up the phone.

"What happened?" I walk up to Dewayne who was now putting on his hoodie.

"Fuck man!! They shot at Red!" I stood there beginning to panic.

"Is he alright? Oh my god! Please tell me he's okay." I say, he grabbed my shoulders.

"I don't know, but we have to pray." I nod as I put on my jacket and boots.

He grabbed his keys and we rushed out the door. We got in the car quickly and sped off.

The whole drive was quiet. My leg was bouncing and my stomach was churning.

I grew to quickly like this guy. He's like a brother to me and I would be pissed if something would happen to him.

As he parked I got out the car quickly and ran inside. Looking around I notice Natasha, Sean, Chance, and Coco who looked like she was about to cry.

I look to see his baby momma sitting across the room glaring at Coco who was to busy looking out the window.

I rushed in gaining the attention of Sean who stood up and Natasha followed.

"What happen!" Dewayne say before I did.

"Man we was out chillen at my hose, and next thing you know they pulled a fuckin drive by on us! So we ducked and started shootin back, but Red was on the ground holdin the side of his stomach and Chance ran to him but end up gettin shot on the shoulder," he pointed to Chance who had his shoulder wrapped. "And then I ran to him and called the ambulance." Sean looked down.

"Did they say somethin about him?" Dewayne asked.

"Nah not yet man!" Sean slid his hand down his face. "I'm fuckin worried and they takin long as hell."
