*Latifah's POV*

Seeing those men at my door raising guns at my family sent chills up my spine. Not only because they tried to hurt my daughter and her girlfriend, but because those men were the same men that framed me 11 years ago causing me to spend time in jail. How did Danielle know them?
I knew that after I got my lick back we weren't safe in that town anymore. It wouldn't ever be good idea for us to stay there, thankfully the two girls didn't really have anyone to say goodbye to. We had to leave.
As I drove to airport Angela had already set us up with her plane, the girls were all cuddled up sleeping and Angela was keeping my company.

"Baby are you okay?" Angela asked while rubbing her fingers over my thigh

I sighed

"Yeah, I'm okay I'm just scared I know I'm supposed to be strong for you guys but those men.." I was defeated I felt like I couldn't protect the people that I love no matter how tough I try to be there will always be danger around

"Those men.. yeah I understand but T you are your own person you're the best wife and mommy we could ever ask for don't be too hard on yourself" she ended with a kiss

"Thanks Ang, but I really want to know, how does Danielle know them? what connections does she have?"

"Hmm.. I don't know baby, but what I do know is that I'm super tired so you're all alone now" she laughed

I smiled, I'm so grateful for her. I think I should tell Taraji how we met the next time she asks.

We reached at the Airport I woke all of them up and I loaded off our bags, and let me tell you it's a shit ton of bags. It's everything that belongs to us. we really didn't have a choice.

"Remind me again why we are leaving?" Taraji said

"Remind me again why you yapping?" I said playfully

Fantasia laughed at her

"Tasia why you laughing? You're supposed to have my back" she whined

"I do have your back! It's just that your parents are hella funny! I don't wanna sell my funny bone!" Fantasia replied

"I know that's right!" I exclaimed

"Can yall stop talking and just get through customs" Angela rolled her eyes

"You so rude imma have to put you in your place when we reach baby" I said in a very seductive way cupping her chin forcing a kiss

"You play too much!" She said in between the kiss

"Y'all gross me out" Taraji walked off

"Fantasia how do you keep up with her? She's so dramatic" I asked

"That's my favorite part about her" she replied while walking off

I was happy for them, they definitely deserve to be together. It was time for us to head out of Chicago, and time for us to move on to LA. We boarded the plane and sat next to each other I'm forever grateful that I have money to afford all of this luxury especially for my family.

"Miss Tifah? I know you said we are family and all but I really don't want to be intruding! I'm fine with booking myself at a hotel until you guys are settled?"

"First of all! Don't call me miss Tifah call me by my name alone boo, and why would we bring you out here to just dump you in a hotel? We are family! You're sticking with us and it will stay that way" I giggled because she was so worried about nothing, it's cute

"Don't be worried baby" Angela added

"Okay so on the subject of bringing us out here.." Taraji started and I just know that she will be asking a lot of questions

"Where are we going? Why are we leaving the city completely? And why is it not safe for us in Chicago!?" She added

"Well for starters. We are going to LA I already have everything there for us. We couldn't stay in Chicago because of those men.." I didn't feel like explaining anything to her it wasn't her business but she was my child

"Okay I'll just lay everything out there. Those men are the men that had me sent to jail 11 years ago they framed me, now I don't know how the hell Danielle knows them but they are dangerous people."

"It's her cusddjrfk.." Fantasia mumbled the last word

"Babe what?"

"It's her cousins.." her head was down

"And you knew? You ain't say anything?" I asked

"I didn't know until now! I swear!" She turned her phone to us. My mouth was left open damn near touching the plane floor.

Danielle was on the news.
