Mfundo POV.
.
My heart has been on some heavy mode since the whole ordeal from Trell's house. I had broken their trust by bringing Shèyaa in his house and threatening their lives. I probably have lost all their respect and their trust which was not my intention. I would never jeopardize their safety like that and I wanted to apologize but I knew he probably was fuming at me so calling him would be a bad idea at this point.

I was sitting by myself in this bedroom,Shèyaa has been on his phone for the whole time we have been here and it seemed like this was something he didn't want me to hear cause he made sure he walked out of the bedroom the moment I got out of the shower so I was here just sitting indian style on this bed as I kept scrolling through nothing on my phone. I was just blank and hurt of what I have just just discovered about the man I was deeply inlove with. He was just like all these rappers out here doing unnecessary shit when they could inspire people to do better. My phone started ringing snapping me out these thoughts that were giving me a headache. I checked to see the caller id and it was my grandma. I took this huge breath and decided to answer. I needed someone that was going to tell me that everything was going to be okay even though nothing was promising at this instant. Everything was going wrong.

"Grandma." I answered softly. "Mfundo, oh my God baby you're okay. Why are you always trying to kill me ngalezinto ozenzayo." I could tell she was worried sick about me but also relieved that I am still alive and breathing. "Grandma I'm sorry." I apologized softly but she started going off on me. "No you're not Mfundo, you keep doing these stupid stuff like you don't know who you are. Now you're out here involved with another rapper who is dangerous, you're out here having sex in public with him. What is wrong with you? Why do you insist on acting like some average person when you know who you are? Who is going to take you serious when you take over the Jones empire. Who will take a girl that has sex tapes with different rappers serious. Yini inkinga yakho." Her words hit me hard and I felt this knot in my throat and my tears filled my eyes instantly.

"Now you're over there being in the same house that had people shooting at it. Lucky for you this time you came out alive but what about next time?" I had no words because she was right so instead of saying anything I just started crying. "Ayi mani crying won't solve anything. What are you even doing in the USA? Who did you even tell you were going there? Uzongisiza ubuye lapho!"

I have never heard my grandma this angry before and that just made me cry even more when I realized how much of a disappointment I was. I just kept making stupid decisions after the other. I was not only putting my life at risk but I was tarnishing my family's name over and over again.

"Tomorrow when I get to the UK your little ass better be there." She hung up on me after that. I still had my phone on my ear as I let my tears gush out. Why was I so bad with choosing partners. Why was I such a dumb decision maker. I should have stayed single and just did as my family expected of me but no here I was involved with a gangster rapper who has just threatened the lives of my friends. I was so disappointed in my myself but mostly disappointed at today's events. I could never catch a break. I was in my little sorrow state when my phone started ringing and when I saw Drew's name flash I quickly answered. It was a good thing he was calling me.

"Hi." I spoke quickly. "Hey, you're good?" He asked and the stupid me nodded. "You're still there?" He asked and that's when I realized I only nodded. "Uhm I'm good. Andrew I'm so sorry about earlier." I sincerely apologized but he chuckled like it wasn't a big deal. "It wasn't your fault ma, I'm just glad you good after that shooting at that nigga place."

"Yeah I'm good and I'm going to just trust that you had nothing to do with it." Right now I was literally just playing myself. Surely that shooting was some sort of  retaliation from them.

"Yeah, I don't play that shit no more. I only had my gun out to protect my friends from your crazy boyfriend."

"You had your gun pointed at me at some point." The urge to roll my eyes was too strong at this point.

"Cause you was protecting him. Were you really finna die for him though?"

"Yah, I was." At that moment I would have done absolutely anything to protect Shèyaa. "Damn. Shit Mfundo that nigga ain't good for you." His tone was flat but I didn't care. He is the one that is not good for me. Has never been good for me.

"And you are?" I asked and deep down I just wondered if there was ever going to be a day where we would wake up and find ourselves completely over each other. Why couldn't we just get over each other.

"I ain't say that but you can do better ma."

"And just like that our call came to an end,bye." I hung up on him after that. I decided to just get under the covers since Shèyaa really wasn't about to get in bed anytime soon.

Drew POV.

"Can you believe that pussy just placed a 100k on Karen's head!" Trell slammed the table. We were in the trap house just smoking some weed. Everybody was hella set on sliding on 21's ugly ass and me I was just sitting quietly listening to them bicker back and forth with each other. They didn't even notice that I had sneaked off to make a call to Mfundo. I was just checking on her. Yes I knew she wasn't hurt so I was just checking on her mental health.

"I'ma put 200k on his girlfriend's head since he wanna play like that!" Trell spoke angrily but I quickly objected. "That shit isn't going to happen. Nobody touching her." I spoke quietly but everybody done heard my ass.

"So what his bitch lives and mine dies?"

"Trell you know Mfundo is like family to us. And stop calling her a bitch." I warned calmly. He wasn't about to pop Mfundo cause of that dumb nigga. "She's not your bitch anymore Shaun!" He yelled but I sat back on my couch and just took this huge breath. I understood why he was so upset but that still didn't he must try to kill my ex who he happens to be close with you.

"But she is your friend so that doesn't count?" I asked but he shook his head. "At this point nah, it don't count for shit!" His emotions were clearly over taking his reasoning capabilities. "Well it matters to me. I'll find a way for that nigga to take the bid off the table but I'ma need you to trust me aight."

"Just 24 hours after that you can place some money on her head." He stood still for moment like he was contemplating what he was finna do from this moment on.

"Fine. Only cause of ya." He agreed after some silence that had taken over this whole place.  I gave him a head nod to show my acknowledgement. "Karen better stay safe or I swear. I will kill her." I nodded and decide to text Mfundo since I know her ass wasn't going to answer my call since she done hung up on me earlier on.

Mfundo Jones: Your ninja out here putting a 100k on Karen's head. You better hold him before shit gets real.

I sent the text before I leaned some more on the couch that I was seated on.
