when I finally woke up I walked in the living room Tayshuan was on the couch watching some dumbass movie.

"what are you watching."

"The Color of friendship....its getting to be Jake got me over here crying and shit. " he wiped his eyes and sat back.

I grabed the remote changing the channel to Vh1 ain't that America was on

" Jacob you little Bitch I was watching that nigga !" he yelled

I laughed and walked out the room and into the kitchen jayshuan was sitting there looking lost.

I sat next to him

" Yo, wassup jay. you Ight."

"mom left Jacob. she gone and I don't think she is coming back." His voice started to crack and I could tell he wanted to cry.

he pushed a piece of paper towards me as Tayshuan walked inside the kitchen he stoped when he seen jayshuan start to form tears in his eyes.

Dear Jacob,

baby I love you so very much. you know I do, I'm leaving. I know about Tayshuan. and I have known for about a couple months now. since he won't quite I'm going to have to leave you guys. I can't wake up every morning knowing that somebody could call me and tell me my son has been shot dead in the streets. I don't know when I'm coming back... but when I do. want all three of you to be alive...

I want you and jayshuan to promise me something....

Jacob promise me you and jayshuan will never ever do the same thing Tayshuan is... No selling drugs and no being involved... please I beg of you.

love, Mommy

I looked at Tayshuan... He looked angry his face was red and his jaw was clenched tight as he started making a growling noise.

Jayshuan sat next to me with his head down silently crying

"Tay, what are we go-"

"Shut up jayshuan and stop being a little bitch.

jayshuan looked at him like he was crazy.

"Nigga our mom is gone cause of yo ass and you want me to stop fucking crying ! Fuck you Tayshuan this yo damn fault she gone. You know damn well she didn't want what happend to dad to happen to one of us and you gone join the damn gang anyways ! Tayshuan you don't never think about others only yourself. Nigga you the one being a lil bitch right now not me... You been a bitch for about 4yrs now and now our Mother is gone our Father is dead.... and you you say I'm being a bitch Fuck off somewhere !"

"lil nigga don't disrespect me cause I ain't no bitch nigga you are. I am not selfish so you can gone with all that shit and its not my damn fault moms couldn't handle my life style. Nigga its whatever Not my fault she can't be down for me." he retorted

as he walked out the kitchen

Jay followed him and when I came from out the kitchen they was both outside.

"Where T'f are you going !"

" Away from yo annyoing ass !"

I saw a truck coming down the street... the sane truck from my dream......

"TAYSHUAN THE TRUCK RUUUNN !"

I screamed,grabbing Jayshuan by his arm and running inside the house...

I heard Tayshuan behind us as we went through the back yard Tayshuan grabed a Duffel bag underneath the porch as me and Jay hoped the wall into a side walk still running.... we ran then soon heard gun shots I looked and saw Tayshuan had a 2 matching guns shooting at the car. that came around the corner

I kept running and so did jayshuan... we seen a alley and decided to just hide there we hid behind a garbage can.... it took us 5 minutes to catch his breathe then started gasping for air..... he is having a asthma attack !

Tayshuan came over to was and bent over catching his breathe

"jayshuan is having a asthma attack. "

Tayshuan pulled out his inhaler shaking it and pushing it into jayshuan mouth and pressed the button so he can breathe.... he catches his breathe and we get up and start walking towards the end of the alley as we walk Tayshuan stops in front of a car... he then bangs on window.... the window comes down and you see his friend Davonte

he unlocked the doors and we got inside the car

"they shot at us vonte. They are on to us... we gotta hide the stash."

"that's when least of our problems....they shot Cory, James, and they killed Maya."

jayshuan while facial expersion changed.... so did mine... Maya is vonte lil sister... she was only 4 years old.

" Hell naww we going after them niggas...fuck that sh-"

"Tayshuan I'm done with this life man....they killed my baby sister nigga... that girl was innocent. Tayshuan I'm quitting the gang. and moving as far away from here as I can."

Tayshuan looked at him like he had lost his mind

"You do what you want im still in it....until the day I die."

Devonte stoped the car and pulled up to a hotel... we got out the car and Devonte left not saying Bye or anything.

"Tayshuan you have to quite....your the only one we got left right now....and we just almost lost you..why the hell would you not leave we need yo get outta here Tayshuan...move like Vonte."

Tayshuan looked at me with disgust ...

"Jacob don't start cause if we do leave how are we gonna make it with out us have jobs."

"We can get some nigga...its not difficult !"

"Not when you have a criminal record."

"Think about it Tay."

we checked inside a room and we didn't speak to eachother. just complete silence.
