??:??pm

"Man fuck that ho" she say as she throws her phone on the table. Saint had just blew her off again cause he's busy with his girl. She thought of texting Thembe and Lana but decided not to. She wasn't tryna hear all that.

Wiyim's jealousy burned in her chest, eating her from the inside out. Ever since Saint started spending more time with Nia, she felt like she was being pushed to the sidelines. She couldn't stand the thought of him being with anyone else, especially not Nia.

As her jealousy grew , Wiyim began to place her plan in action. She knew she had to get rid of Nia if she wanted to keep Saint all to herself. So she started pulling away from her friends, focusing all her attention on Saint and her plan to sabotage Nia. "Let me go to the trap" she said as she got up to get ready.

She put on a fit and headed out the door. She arrives shortly after and heads towards the back to look for Von and Trell. She finds them on the back porch smoking. "Yo" she shouted out. They both turned to look at her with a mug evident on their faces "man wtf you want now?" Trell asked as he inhaled the smoke.

Wiyim mugged him back before asking "I need a favour." Vin turned around "Does Ja know about this favour?" Wiyim shook her head "No. But he'll thank me in the end. This the type of sick shi he like so I ain't see no problem with it" Von shook his head "Fuck no then. Let Dime handle that shi" "He busy with something worse. C'mon please" she begged.

They huffed and looked at each other before Trell asked what she wanted. She cheesed from ear to ear "Name's Nia. Get some boys to stomp her out, make sure they aim for her face. She gon be down at the bowling on main tomorrow at around 9. Prolly leave around 11. Get to her before she hop into the V."

Trell smacked his teeth "Man you want us to get involved in some petty girl shi? Stomp her yo self." "Ain't that Saint's bitch?" Von asked. Wiyim eagerly nodded "Yh. Taking her down turns Saint weak. Meaning y'all can take over and I'll have my man all to myself."

Von and Trell looked at each other for a min before Von spoke out " I'll get Jaquille and nem on her. They the ones that deal with females round 'ere" Wiyim nodded and run up to the two to hug 'em. "Thanks y'all!" They mug her as they push her back causing her to stumble "Fuck on with that shi." They said in unison.

They turned away from her "Dusty ass ho' " Von mumbled. Wiyim frowned at the phrase and turned to walk away. The frown on her face quickly changed into a smile when she thought about her upgrade from side to main.

Thembe POV
📍Big Pete's Funeral
10:45 am

People from all over the block, dressed in black, crowded all down the street to Big Pete's house on 78th,mourning the loss. I wiped the tears off of my face as I run Lana's back. She been bawling since morning, ion blame her tho she always been a daddy's girl.

I've been trying to get in contact with Wiyim but she ain't answering my calls or texts and I bet she ain't even here. I sigh as I look down at my phone again. I see a notification from Harlem letting me know he and his friends on their way. I smile at my phone, he always been so supportive of me.

I'm dragged outta my thoughts as Lana clutches closer to me. Mama Lucia was upstairs resting after fainting from seeing his photo in the frame. After that heart attack at the shop, doctors told her to take it slow so it was just me, her and a couple of aunties and uncle at the front. They family was never really close to each other cause of greed and land shi so she really only got me to lean on.

My heart ached as I watched them bring out Papa Pete's photograph. Tears streamed down my eyes as I watched them place it on the bed of flowers by the altar. Lana screamed out in pain as she rushed to her papa's picture, It was all we had, the police said they would return the body later today and continue to investigate but I wasn't so sure about that.
