RJs POV
*1 month later*
"No, let's walk. To get some exercise. Plus, it's not far and it's perfect weather" Raven said.
"Ok! Daddy you wanna play basketball when we get there?" Ky asked.
I nodded "fashoo lil man. Ima get changed real quick tho." I said.
I jogged up to my room and changed into a white T-Shirt, army cargo shorts, white nike elite socks and my white roshe runs. I put on my gold chain and gold studs.
"You ready?" Raven asked.
"Y-Yeah, I needa get somethin real quick tho" I lied pretending to look for something.
She nodded and walked out the room.
Once she was gone I kneeled down beside the bed.
"I know I haven't been praying like I'm supposed to but Im gon start now. Lord, I'm sorry for all I've done. I gonna do better for my family and become a better father for my kids and soon to be husband for Raven. I stopped messing in the streets so please, just protect my family for me. I just got them back and I never wanna loose them again. I really don't know how to pray but I swear I'm gon start going to church. Just please protect my family" I prayed.
Just as I stood up Raven walked back into the room.
"You found what you were looking for?" She asked.
"Uh, y-yeah. Let's go" I said.
We walked down the stairs where ky and the twins sat, watching tv.
"Wait I needa get my gun" I said.
I know i just said Ima start doing better but I can't risk it. Someone could try and shoot us, especially since we walking.
Before I could even walk up the stairs Raven grabbed my hand.
"You don't need it" she said."Wh-"
"Rj" Raven warned "what did you tell me a month ago?" She asked
I sighed "that I was done messing in the streets and Ima do better than before" I mumbled.
"Exactly. So there's no reason to bring it"
I sighed "Ight"
We put jameel and ja'kori in their stroller and I grabbed kyree's hand and headed out.
--------------------
We walked to the park in the perfect weather. I wasnt too hot or cold.
I squinted my eyes. Can't be, can't fuckin be.
A rival drug gang. I killed a few of them niggas before. I shoulda brought my fuckin gun.
"Fuck" I mumbled.
They were in a car and we were fuckin walkin.
Niggas bet not try shit.
They slowly started driving towards us.
I stopped Raven and ky.
Once they started speeding to us i quickly turned the stroller behind the bush, facing the other way and pushed ky and Raven to the floor and covered them with myself.
"Keep your heads down!!" I yelled.
bullets flew through the air.
"Fuck!" I yelled.
One of the bullets flew right next to my arm.
Raven and ky screamed and the babies cried there little eyes out.
