Karma 3

Jania

I woke up to the sound birds chirping and the house was unusually quiet. I looked around . Dre was gone and my body was hurting from us fucking and fighting. I took a shower then headed downstairs to get dressed. Something just doesn't feel right. I can't put my finger on it. As I was walking to the living room then front door was kicked in/ I dropped my cup and looked out to the hall. The SWAT team rush in and had dogs with them .
"Let go of me." I yelled
"Are you Jania Maldonado?" A officer asked.
"Yes. Let me call my husband ." He said
"Not right now ma'am you gotta come with me." I was handcuffed and led out to a car and then to the police station. They left me in the i terrogatin room by myself. I paced around the room wondering where the fuck Dre was at. A police officer walked in and sat a folder down on the table.
" I got you on drug distribution , possession of a fire arm without a license , wire fraud and so much more ma'am you are looking at 10 years." She said
"I want to speak to my husband." I said.
The police officer rolled her eyes and left out the room . She bought me a phone back in and then left the room again.
"Dre where are you ?" I said when he answered.
"I'm on my way home from picking the kids up where are you?"
"Don't go home. They raised the crib I'm at the precinct."
"I'll be there in 20 minutes." Dre said hanging up. I called our lawyer and within 20 minutes Dre and my lawyer walked in.
"You okay baby ? Are you hurt?" Dre asked walking over to me and hugging me.
The police officer walked back in . You could tell she was annoyed at the sight of my lawyer.
"You have no case against my client. We are leaving ."My lawyer said.
"We found a pound of marijuana in her bedroom closet. A witness statement from someone that works with her stating she sells drugs."
"Some witnesses are unreliable . Give her a fine for the marijuana and she's out of here while you build your case." My lawyer smiled. The cop rolled her eyes before she left out of the room.
"Y'all better think of something ..FAST depending on who the witness is you are looking at a lengthy sentence." She said
"We gonna figure out who it is . Believe that ." Dre said . I signed my paperwork and paid the fine then left with Dre. We went back home and I was expecting it to be trashed but our maid cleaned up .
"Have you talked to Cynsere ?" I asked Dre.
"Nah I've tried calling him a few days ago and it went straight to voicemail."
"Tomorrow I'm riding around there . That boy better not be in no bullshit ." I said yawning.
"Get some sleep babe we gonna figure this shit out later." Dre said kissing my forehead . I laid down on the couch and took a nap. A couple hours later Classyc and Storm were back and playing in the living room loudly. I could hear Sky yelling at them. I woke up out of my sleep and rubbed my eyes .
"What they arguing about? Hey Storm ! Put that shoe down now!" I yelled
Classyc walked over to the couch and sat down sucking on his thumb
"Storm took his toy truck." Sky sighed looking up from her book.
"Take your brother and sister outside to play for a little while I smoke. & tell Georgiana that we want tacos for dinner." I said to Sky.
Sky got up and went to the maid first before taking the kids outside. I took my weed from out under the couch and began rolling a blunt . I was surprised the shit was still there . They ain't look hard enough. I had it taped to the couch. I laughed to myself and turned the tv on. I got the kids in the tub after dinner and went to take a long bath. I was stressing and I still wanna know who ratted on me and why?

After putting the kids on the bus Dre and I drove over to the warehouse. My barbers and beauticians were staring at me funny.
"Wassup? Y'all still want a place to work out of or do I need to put up for rent signs?" Dre said.
" my fault mr Maldonado. We are looking because some dude came up in here looking for y'all yesterday." One of the barbers named Melvin said.
"What man? What he look like?"
"Idk his name. Puerto Rican bul, tall with long hair asked for y'all." He said
"For now on if they aren't customers or the boys don't let nobody in here . Imma have a security door in here soon and imma give employees only the code. Do not give nobody outside or here the code." Dre said before we got on the elevator . I rubbed my forehead and breathed in and out . I was stressing and needed a get away. When we got to the second floor Flock and the boys were seated at a table counting money and bagging up.
"We need to talk." Flock said to us.
"Let's go in here." Dre said leading the way to the office. We closed the door behind us and sat down. I could feel that more bad news was coming and I got an instant headache.
"Wassup Flock."
"Listen... Aaliyah snitched."
"Naw! You playing flick." Dre laughed. The muscles in Flocks face flexed and I felt uncomfortable.
"You not playing damn ! Where that bitch at ?!" I yelled.
"She ran. Me and Timmy rolled up to her crib when we found out . Was gone take her out ourselves but there was a for sale sign in front of her pops crib and no cars." Flock said
"You know where Dashon at?"
"He not with her they stopped fucking weeks ago."
"Better find her before me." Dre said through gritted teeth/
"Nah this one is for me... this is personal." I said taking a blunt of of my purse and lighting it. I was putting a plan together. I stayed quiet the remainder of the day. My thoughts were racing but I didn't want to be bothered. I stayed in my room and listened to music.

"You okay?"Dre asked me.

"Yeah I guess."I said, shrugging. Dre gave me a kiss on the forehead and grabbed his car keys.

"Where are you going?"

"Flock and I got some business to take care of. I love you, I will be back."He said, kissing me and walking out. Sky came in a couple minutes later and handed me a picture that Storm made.

"Thank you baby. How was school today?"I asked her.

"It was cool. I ain't do too much."

Sky. I know you are getting older and you are starting to experiment in different ways. I want you to be YOU..don't try to rush to do whatever it is your friends are doing." I said.

"If you are talking about sex ma . I'm a virgin....i haven't even kissed a boy yet."She said. I hugged her and gave her a kiss on the forehead. I prayed that she didn't rush herself. I wanted her to be everything that i wasn't growing up.
