Next day
Aaliyah pov
"I did my usual morning routine and I put on my black dress for my brother, Jaden's funeral. After 2 hours went by, me and August left Jaden's funeral and I cried all the way home. I can't believe my brother is really gone.

Aaliyah pov
"I was scrolling on instagram and I heard loud noises coming from outside. Then I kept hearing it and I relized it's the sound of gunshots, the people outside were shooting at eachother. I screamed and made sure my door was locked and I covered myself. Then without warning, people were banging on my door with a gun in their hand saying open the door. I had made sure all of the lights were off before they knocked, to make it seem like no one was home. They kept trying to unlock the door and I tried not to scream. I covered my mouth and silently cried, when was August coming back because I am scared asf?"

August pov
"As soon as I got home, Aaliyah was on the floor in tears, I ran to her to see what was wrong."
"Aaliyah, what happend?" I asked.
"August we got to move outta here soon, I can't take this shooting and danger anymore, it won't be safe for us and our baby." she said crying in my arms.
"Everything will be ok, ok?" I said calmly.
"Ok." she said.
