"Aye, come here." A tall man said to Jaylen. Jaylen looked to Andrea before she nodded her head.

Jaylen walked to the Mexican man, he recognized him as the one Andrea was tattooing months ago. He told Jaylen to sit at the poker table as he sat down.

Men that looked a lil like Andrea surrounded him. He bit his lip as they stared him down. A dark skin one chuckled, his smile reaching his eyes, "I'm Leonardo. That's Miguel," He said pointing to the one he recognized, "This is Logan and that's Connor."

"I'm Jaylen." He said shaking Leonardo's hand.

"We're all Andrea's cousins. Mind them, they're a little over protective." He said as Logan looked at him, annoyed.

A petite African American woman walked over to Leonardo. She looked at Jaylen for a little too long before she sat on Leon's lap.

"Jaylen, this my baby, Sahara. Sahara this Jaylen, Andrea's man." He said as Sahara looked over at Jaylen with a hint of lust. No one noticed it but him, he knew he needed to keep away from her.

"Nice to meet you." She said as she extended a hand.

"You too." Jaylen said as he shook her hand as she grasped a little too hard.

He moved his hand quickly. He all ready knew she was gonna be a problem.

"Hello, Mama." Andrea said as she walked in the empty kitchen as her mom washed dishes.

"Who's the kid? You got pregnant and never told anyone? Hiding the child from us?" Her mom asked. Andrea could here the anger in her voice.

"Ma, that's not my child, but he is mine." Andrea said as she took a seat on the stool.

"What?" Her mom asked in confusion.

"He didn't come from my womb but he is my son."

"You adopted?"

"No, Ma. It's Jaylen's son. When his mother didn't want anything to do with her child, I claimed his as mine."

"Andrea Mulan Diez! Are you insane!" She screamed, "Why are you taking care of a stupid thugs child! Why can't the child's mother do it!"

"He's not stupid! He does it so he can put a roof over his child's head just like daddy had too! Wayne's mother doesn't care about him! Why send him somewhere he's not wanted?" Andrea said.

She was finally happy and her mother couldn't be happy for her. She was pissed her mom actually hated Jaylen because he did what he had to to put money in his pocket. Especially since her father was one, one who was very into the streets at that.

"Well your father stopped! Look, this is why I kicked you out! You don't listen, always being so fucking disobedient. All I ask for you is to bring home a decent boy but you come with a thug and his son!" Her mom said as she glanced at the little boy sleeping in Andrea's arms.

"I don't care what you want! I don't care about making you happy, I want what makes me happy! And that thug and his son does! If you don't approve of him, you don't have too. Cause it doesn't matter. You haven't talked to me in years and you don't even care that I'm at least happy and healthy. Just who I bring home. The first question you ask me is not even about how I'm doing! Or do I need anything to help me out! No! It's always pleasing you. I don't care what you want! It's not your fucking life! It's mines!" Andrea said as she blinked back her tears and hugged Wayne tighter, before she whispered, "I'm going. Tell dad I love him. I love you ma."

Jaylen sighed he just wanted to go, Sahara kept trying to make small talk. She was annoying the hell out of a nigga. Women like her are the reason men loose they're perfect woman, cause its always that hoe that doesn't know what bye means.

He finished drinking his soda before Alex called him to follow him to his office.

Jaylen followed behind and sat in the chair when they reached there destination. It was silent and awkward as hell for Jaylen. He looked around not trying to stare in the eyes of Alex.

"Jaylen, lets discuss this thing with Len." Alex said as he sat back in his chair.

"Yes sir."

"I don't really like you much but your with my daughter. She could get hurt if something went wrong. I have a few people that could search for Len for you."

"You serious?" Jaylen asked, he just wanted all this Len shit to be done and over all ready.

"Do you love me daughter?"

"Yes, very much." Jaylen said without hesitation.

"Then I'm serious. Sometime next week come see me." Alex said before they discussed plans of where they would attack and bring Len before they put him six feet under.

That shit was dirty. He was gonna get what he deserved for fucking with him.
