TASHA'S POV HOUSTON ,TEXAS
HER AUNT'S HOUSE Friday-November.4th, 2022. 11:45pm
I sobbed in my aunts lap as the cops told us that my cousins were dead. I didn't know how to feel. A miscarriage and now death of not one but two of my family members.
"Any suspects?" My aunt asked as she rubbed my back
"We can't really speak on that but there's video evidence that we're working on getting from the owner." The cop said
"Well wtf can you say?! All you did was show up at my door and tell me my sons are dead!" My aunt said holding back her tears
"I'm sorry ma'am..all we could say is that they were murdered around 9:45-10:00. Gang shootout" the cop said
My aunt just took a shaky breath and nodded "thank you officer" she said
"No problem and again we're sorry for your loss maam" the cop says before walking out
"Why oh whyy" I continued to sob out
"It's alright baby..let's get you some water and rest" she said rubbing my back before helping me up to the kitchen

SAINT'S POV HOUSTON ,TEXAS
THE TRAP Saturday-November.5th, 2022. 8:00am
"MAN FUCK!" I yelled out as I looked at the computer
"Kareem James and Gerald Monrell Green" I read
"Tasha people" Yasmine said her breath
"Yea no shit sherlock" I said as I got up
"No need to snap at me. Not our fault that bitch was crazy over you and got her cousins involved. Her damn fault they dead now" Yasmine said
"Look we all know Amir isn't gonna give up that tape easily so we got time to stall" Houston said
"Youn think I could be like it was self-defense?" I asked as I rubbed my face
"You prolly could but who knows" Ray said
I took a deep breath and then let it out. Why when everything was good in my life it started going downhill?
"We go get you through this man but you HAVE to tell Blessing because what if they haul your ass to jail before the baby comes??" Houston said
"You right.." I said softly
"I know so now get your ass home and tell her then handle the consequences of her reaction." Houston said
"Alright lemme go and do this..ima hit y'all up later" I said dapping them up and hugging Yasmine before leaving

I had just gotten home, I walked in and that bih smelt good asf.
"Baby wya?" I asked
"In the kitchen" I heard her call out
I walked in the kitchen and saw her cooking
"Damnnn baby ts smell good" I said walking behind her and smacking her ass
"Thank you" she said smiling
I gave her a quick kiss then hopped on the counter. As she was cooking I just looked at her, getting a little sad as I stared at her. I didn't deserve this girl..not one bit but somehow I still had her.
"What's wrong? Why you looking at me like that?" Blessing asked
"I gotta tell you something mama" I said softly
"What is it?" She asked not looking at me
"You gotta sit down for this" I said as my voice started breaking as tears filled my eyes
Her face immediately fell just automatically something was wrong. She grabbed my hand pulling me off the counter and walked into the living room. Sitting down, I took a deep breath before I started speaking.
"Look mama I just want you to know that I love you and I'm so so sorry.." I said
She was about to speak but I put my hand up.
"The other night when I went get you pickles from the gas station something went down..some dumbass niggas started shooting at me so ofc I shot back. I ended up killing two and turns out they was Tasha people." I said
"So what does this mean?..." she asked softly
"Well I could possibly go to jail but we'll know in due time" I said quickly wiping my tears
"No you can't!.. i need you, WE need you here" Blessing said through tears
"I know I know and ima do my best to beat my case if I got to court" I said sighing
I heard her take a shaky breath before grabbing my hands. She looked at me, giving me a tight lipped smile.
"We'll get through it together." She said
I nodded before breaking down crying. This girl really had my back and I couldn't ask for more.
