"Niqueeee!" Bahja squealed as they both jumped into each others arms for joy.

They sat down with A$ap and discussed what happened. Turns out, Star couldn't handle being with Babydoll but so long. She needed Bahja. They were best friends since birth, and their bond grew so strong, that she risked everything and ran out to find her.

"And I met A$ap at a night club late last night. Like very late. Maybe even around 1." Star explained while cheesing at Bahja.

"Yeah, it was after that crazy ass came and got you." A$ap scoffed while taking a huge bite out of his beef burrito.

Bahja sighed and slapped both of her hands in her lap. "A$ap, I'm so sorry about that. Trust me, it was extremely embarrassing." She apologized while looking the other way.

"I really hope we could start fresh again."

"Oh, sure we can." He smiled as he stood up to throw his plastic plate away in the trash. "But there's one thing."

"What is it?"

He took his gun out slowly from his back pocket and brought it around Bahja's face. "You need to pop that sucka'. Straight in his thick ass skull."

Zonnique jumped. "Wait, who are y'all talking about?!"

Bahja tilted her head up towards A$ap and saw his serious facial expression. Then, she knew exactly who he was referring to.

"Princeton... I have to shoot Princeton."

"Bahja, you can't shoot Princeton! Why would you want to do such a thing?!"

"God DAMNIT, Nique, I didn't say I wanted to do it!" Bahja yelled.

She looked back over at A$ap and shook her head as she begun to tear up. "A$ap, why do you want me to do this?" She asked, as a tear fell onto her top lip.

"You want to play Russian roulette?"

"I do, but-"

"I can already tell in his actions that he is the type of dude who will rat you out. It's illegal to play that here, of course." He rolled his eyes. "They'll rule it as suicide and put our asses in a hospital."

"But... A$ap, I just can't." She sighed, wiping the tears out of her left eye. She slowly took the revolver out of his hand and eyed it.

A$ap watched her as she contemplated on whether to go through or not. A$ap definitely wanted Princeton gone for many, many reasons; but the fact that he wanted to build a relationship with Bahja was the main thing. Star pulled her curly, white hair back behind her ears and watched Bahja also. Being her best friend, she knew there was no way Bahja was going to go along with it. But sometimes, even best friends don't know everything about each other.

The next morning, Star shook shook Bahja out of her sleep on the couch.

"Bahja!" She whispered.

Bahja squeezed her eyes tight and turned the other way, still dreaming.

"Bahja, wake up!"

Bahja finally turned around and squinted her eyes at Star out of annoyance. "What?"

"I need to talk to you. A sister to sister talk." Star sat down beside her as Bahja lifted up. She combed her pink hair down with her hands over her shoulders then groaned.

"What is it?"

"It's about the situation with Princeton. You're not really going to go along with it, are you?"

Bahja looked down at her feet and thought deeply for a little. The thought of shooting Princeton was literally eating her alive, but the thought of quitting Russian roulette and going back to "boring ole' Bahja" wasn't a nice thought either.
