Saffire Pov
"If you didn't love me then why are you here. Why did you not tell them I know you? Why did you frame Jada?"
"Your my son's mother and he needs one of us and if it's not going to be me then it has to be you."
"What do you mean? You plan to be out of his life? Zander that's fucked up even for you."
"Just suh life go more while. We cyah choose wah go happen."
"Yes you have a choice."
"No I don't. Do you think I want to not be there for both of you?" He yell before walking away.
I watch him walk into the room and put on his clothes to leave out of the house.
"If you walk out that door Zander that's it for me. I have forgiven you for lying about yourself but I won't let you be in and out of our lives."
He looks at me then nod. "I understand."
"You love your son Kyrie so why can't you love Zion? Why are you doing this to us?"
He does not respond. He walks right out the door like I mean nothing to him.
My phone goes off and it's Talia calling me, I hesitate but answer.
"Hey Talia how you feeling?"
"Saffire I need your help. Can you come by please, I'll text you the address."
She ends the call before I can reply but somehow I grab some clothes, my sneaker and my house keys.
I knock on the front door and Talia opens it with a bottle of water in her hand. She looks unkept but not as bad as before.
"Come in Saffire." She says moving to the side so I can enter the house.
"Whose house is this?" I ask walking into the living area. There are furniture and other unopened items all over.
"It's Zues place. Zander wanted to sell it but I asked him to wait until I can get some things." She says taking a seat on a box.
"So why did you call me over here?"
"I want to find the man that killed my man."
"Talia I think you need time to heal.."
"Saffire don't do that. I know my you think my brother is evil but look at this." She hands me a flash drive.
"What should I do with this?"
Talia leans in and whisper in my ears. My eyes shot open and I look down at the flash drive in my hand and back at Talia.
Zander Pov
"Stappa a you incharge now. Me send you a picture of a man, him dangerous so be careful."
"Yes boss."
"Get as much info from him before you kill him and watch you head back."
"Suh Crypto, how u nuh forward a Zues funeral?" DaDa ask on the other end of the call.
"DaDa, check on the FBI agent them. Don't worry about contacting me. I'll contact you and if you get caught don't say a word. I was there."
I disconnect the call and look at my computer screen. Talia and Saffire is sitting on boxes in Zues house talking.
Saffire has a flash drive in her hand and it looks like the drive that has all the information I gathered. I gave that flash drive to Zues months ago to put in my safe so it can't be.
Zues is careless but I believe he did the right thing. Just to be sure I'm going to check the safe later today.
Seeing Talia and Saffire sitting in an almost empty room leaves me thinking.
If it's one thing I know, is that I need to get them as far away from me as possible. I booked a ticket for my mom and the kids to go to universal studios. By that time I should find the man that murdered my father and kill him.
A knock comes on my door and I close the computer screen just as Kyrie walks in with Zion behind him.
"Dad, I'm salty that Zion looks exactly like you. Sometimes I wish things were different."
"Kyrie you a me first yute and that cyah change. Don't you have me last name?"
"Yes but..."
"No buts, me wah you take care a your younger brother.
Zion climbs on my lap and hug me. The hug is warm and instantly my heart breaks at the thought.
"Zander what's this about a plane ticket to America? I'm not leaving you and Talia behind."
"Who says your leaving Talia. Two weeks after you leave with Talia and the kids I'm coming over."
"Why can't you come when we are leaving this weekend?"
"I have to refer my clients to new accountants and then decide if I should sell the company or close it. I have to sort out Zues stuff too so it's a lot."
My mom looks at me for a short while like she is trying to figure me out. She walks out and so does the kids.
Sometimes I wish things were different and everything was fine.
A call comes in on my phone and I'm not familiar with the number. I answer but remain silent on the line.
"I wanted to kill you but your dumb friend took the bullet instead."
"You better pray me dead before you else you go suffer."
"Zander your already a dead man walking. Just a matter of time."
"Me a nuh me father. Him a did coward, me a the real deal."
"Your just a wanna be thug. Tell my daughter I said hello."
"Nigga I killed your daughter months ago." I reply walking around my office.
"Zander, Zander, Zander, your just a child in an adult world."
He ends the call and I throw my phone shattering it against the wall.
This mother fucker knows how to get under someone's skin. How the fuck does he know my identity?
"What was that?" My mom ask looking at me.
"Nothing." I reply running upstairs to my bedroom. As soon as I enter the room I close the door and pull all the curtains. I open the closet and pull out all the racks.
I pull out the board in the back of my closet and take out the documents I hid for emergency.
It won't be long until he tries to get me arrested or killed since he now knows my identity.
"Zander Gallo you are under arrest for the murder of Abby Santos and Ezekiel Cantata. You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law."
I look up and Detective Derby is smiling while another officer read me my rights.
"Who let you in my house?"
" A warrant is out for your arrest. Cooperate please." He says laughing.
