Xavier

I called Sienna earlier to check up on her and the kids. After getting off the phone with Sienna, I held my gun. I was getting tired of playing this game with Meek. Back in the day, Rihmeek and I were associates. He shouldn't even be mad at me since I didn't know she was his baby's mom until after I started feeling her. So I didn't see what was so bad about me giving her the world than rather her stay in a project building with bums on the sidewalks, piss in the hallways, crack heads everywhere. I still didn't see what was wrong with what I was doing. Especially since he was sent away, he slept with the girl I was with and got her pregnant.

Before y'all asses think I did all this to get back at Meek chill that out. The point is, at first, that's how I was feeling, but when I got to know her over time, I couldn't see why she would even wait for a clown like Meek. I couldn't see why someone would just let her leave this way. Especially if he wanted her, he could have given her the money since it's been sitting there for years. Here's my last point since I don't feel like making any anymore. 

Why was he paying for my ex-kid to be taken care of all this time, but never once has he ever mentioned that money to Sienna? The person who needed it most since she was stripping while your other child's mother sitting back spending your money. I just couldn't believe this fool was really trying to kill me and the mother of his child. 

Let's be honest would you kill your friend over someone you are not marrying, your wife, your life partner, or even in likes with?

I kept casing the place out. I was getting paranoid. I smoke so much weed this feeling of paranoia wasn't new to me. I always felt someone was jealous, scheming, and plotting to try and take my life away at any given moment. I heard footsteps I turned around slowly to see who it was. I saw this sexy hourglass figure with a lot of ass when I heard the familiar voice it was Sienna. What are you doing here?

"I came here to figure out who has been stalking our family. Xavier, you know I don't play when it comes to my babies".

Who has been threatening the kids?

"I don't know, trust if I knew, I would have been shot them in the head."

Damn, it was getting too serious. I needed to find the shooter who shot the the kid before they killed Sienna, the kids, and me. D and Black had come in after Sienna. D pulled me over to the side to tell me something. D said, "Guess who got parole today".

Who? This is not the time for some damn riddles.

"meek. His lawyer asked for another trial, saying how they could give him 15 years to life without any witnesses at the scene when the crime was committed. Word on the street is that judge placed him on house arrest to figure out who placed him at the crime. Meek called me talking about coming pick him up since he's out. Meek thinks you're the one that snitched and got him sent away. By snitching, so you could get to Sienna and his kid and wouldn't have to worry about him" he finished while shaking his head. Then looking at me for the next plan.

You have to be kidding me? Never been about that whole going to the police for help with anything and I still won't be about that till the day I die. Neither was my wife. After hearing all this information my skin started to itch for me to go on a rampage looking for meek to end all of this now!

I was ready to settle down with Sienna. I had just finished going through the other spots. I took all the money except for two spots (monster and Keisha). My phone started vibrating I got my phone out to see nothing but pictures of my kids (Josiah , dom & niq niq) . I couldn't keep living this life . Simply for the fact I now becoming what a real man was thanks to Sienna I don't think I would have changed into what a real man is. Which is not running the streets looking for loose women, hustling for a quick couple of dollars here and there; a real man is coming home to the woman I love. A real man isn't having to always look over my shoulder to make sure I don't have any of my enemies surrounding me. The man I am today is a man worth marrying Sienna . I had to make the the right decision by giving her a ring and ensuring she wasn't going anywhere. I didn't want my kids trying to talk to me through some glass at the prison. Or even have to see me in a casket. My life wasn't fair to them. Either way, they lose me in the end. I had so much on my mind I completely forgot what I was doing. Then those fatal words from D came to my mind.

"Chill, Xavier.. all i-I know is that the killer is someone who knows the spots".

Now who else knew the spots well enough to go unnoticed? I sat inside my truck just thinking. Then more of that same conversation came to my mind. "He wasn't trying to hear all that . he told me to call this number and tell them Meek needed to take care of someone that's going to take you out so Shake can take over the business. Red said.". Everything started to make sense. See back in the day meek, Nahiem, red, And I were all friends. Until meek got sent away and he handed everything over to me since I had a legal business just in case the police decided to check me out. See, Red was always loyal to Meek but respected me enough to work for me. Nahiem at first was pissed that I gained the business, not him. It was a fucking setup. Nahiem meekly knew about the money and told Meek I snitched so he could get me killed. While he 

lay low, he would take over and collect the money. He probably didn't plan on Sienna getting pregnant or collecting the money.

The snake was going to take the money and just offer my head as a trade. I had to drive back to Keisha to find Sienna. But first I had to find meek. I called my D to see if he knew where he was.

"Yo meek at the pool hall looking for you. He's trying to bust into the back to get to Sienna". D said.

I started speeding to get to Keisha. Once I got there I had my gun in my hand and started casing the place. I saw D with his rifle pointing toward Nahiem. Why Nahiem? What made you go through all this to get some business??.

"You got too comfortable. You thought you could run everything when I been here longer than you. I got tired of waiting for shit to catch up to you". Said Nahiem

I was so angry my hand was shaking. I was ready to put a bullet right through his head. That's when D, meek, Nahiem, and I fought. D shot Meek in the arm. Nahiem and I started fist-fighting. I elbowed him in his face, then gave his ass that lefty. He got me in the eye—cheap ass shot. I took a pool stick and hit him in his leg, causing it to break in half. Nahiem had managed to kick the back of my knee, sending me to the ground to fight him. We were on the ground trying to reach for one of the guns on the floor. That's when Sienna walk's out of the office, trying to get Nahiem off of me.

All I hear is the gun going off. Everyone stops what they're doing to look at who sent that shot. It turns out it was Melody. She had shot the celing to get everyone's attention. Melody puts the weapon to Sienna's head. Melody says, "I'm sorry Xavier, since you got her pregnant, I'm over you. Look, it's nothing personal it's just business. My new man Nahiem wants me to get rid of her. Now who's the bitch now trick?! She yells as she points her gun at Sienna's head.

"Hell no. You better put your gun down before I end up killing you," Sienna says as she reaches for her gun. That's when Nahiem elbows me in the jaw. I ended up busting my lip, which resulted in my mouth bleeding. Shortly after being elbowed in the mouth, my close friend d and I scrambled to get to our feet to get to where Nahiem, Melody, and Meek were taking Sienna hostage at.

Luckily, I still had connections with people who knew about meek other spots. After making a few calls, I ended up in an dead end. I started to feel frustrated. I can't let my woman go out like this. I need to keep calling people to figure out where they took her. It's been forty-eight hours since I last seen Sienna and the kids. I started to work like an addict needed their fix. Day and night, II worked on a plan to bring down Nahiem and meek. My phone started buzzing in 

my pocket that's when I pulled my phone out of my pocket to see an unknown number calling me. I answered it. It was the stripper from K.O.D named Chardonay or some shit I don't remember her name, but she said she had some info for me, so I was down to ride over to see what she had to tell me.
