"How could I ..... Lost in my lack of companionship had me comparing shit. I never peeped things out, but I be staring shit. A lost soul still tryna gain control. Of what lies ahead, I will never know ......"

JACOLBY'S POV-

I walked in the kitchen with my hands in my pocket to get a trash bag. But first I washed off the blood on my hands and on the knife, then wipped the blade across my shirt to dry it off. I got the trash can then continued outside. I pushed peice by peice of his body into the bag then getting the bag into the trunk of the car. As everything was going on, I could hear this poetry in my head, being recieted but it was me. I never know I could do that until tonight.
By the time I went back to the house a gun shot was fired. Everybody ran immediately including Clayko and bae, which to be honest, was the last people I thought I would see. Honestly, I thought one of the them got shot. Clayko hurried and started the car, we already had been under-age driving, plus he had an unlicensed weapon, so we dipped.

"Yo, so who got shot ?" I asked. He was silent , but broke and told us it was Memphis. "And that's not even the part I'm tripping bout, I didn't kill him..... Tyriek did." I could see the hurt in bae's eyes. Not only did she lose a brother, but the other was his murderer.
Clayko phone began to ring." I looked out for you tonight.... You owe me. I knew my brother was crazy, but I didn't expect for it to go this far....", he said. Clayko asked him why he do it. He said," The same reason he was bout to off you. But the difference between me and him is, I see a as a valuable asset. And being imma be on the run for a while, I'm calling shots and making moves directly through you. You and Mak10 work for me now. I'll call you when you need to make the next move, don't forget I'm twenty six and your fifteen ." he hung up. The ride grew more silent. Between bae crying and finding out my "friend" tried to kill me but was killed by his brother, that I'm now working for, everything is throwing me off.
