'I know I promised I'd stay out of trouble, but they were gonna give Johnny the chair! You know that I couldn't let that happen. I'd kill his ass before I'd ever let the government get the chance!'
King laughed on the other end of the phone.
'Looks like you have yourself all figured out. But I know the Saints are starting up again. And I know I can't stop you from helping. So all I'm going to say is be careful, be smart, and most importantly know when enough is enough. Don't lose yourself trying to be the best. Have some Respect, get some Respect. But also know when it's time to walk away. You're a female leader, so people are gonna underestimate your abilities....'
I smiled.
'But I know that would be the worst mistake they'd ever make. I mean, I raised you to be strong, and your nothing less than that. So do your thing, I'm not happy that your back in the gang life, but I know what it means to be loyal to your people. So if you ever need me, you know I only a call away. I have to go, I love you baby.'
'I love you too King. I'll call soon so you know I'm alright.'
We hung up, and walked into the hideout, and it still looked like a shithole after a whole day! Maybe it's too much to ask for them to clean it in 24 hours ;). I'm heading to the bar when I see Carlos talking to the boss.
Me: What's up guys?
Boss: Apparently Maero wants us to meet him in the Caverns to discuss a partnership.
I rolled my eyes.
Me: Trust me guys, this is a waste of time. He'll start off sounding convincing. But in the end, he'll try and offer us some bullshit like 20% or something. I say don't even give him the time of day.
Carlos: He sounded pretty serious on the phone.
I shook my head. And the boss thought for a minute.
Boss: Listen, I don't know a lot about Maero....
Me: But I do! And he's a selfish, narcissistic, jackass and the Saints shouldn't have anything to do with him, or his gang.
Boss: I think we should at least go and give him a chance.
Carlos: Let do it then. You should come too Nene.
Me: Oh trust me I'm coming. So when shit hits the fan like I know it will, I can be the first to say 'I told you so!'
******************************
We're currently moving through the caverns looking for Maero.
Me: You know, it's sad that the caverns look better than our hideout at the moment.
They laughed. Then we see Maero sitting on a bench waiting.
Maero: I'm slightly surprised you shown up.
Boss: Where's your crew?
Maero: Don't need them.
Boss: Really?
He points his gun at him.
Boss: I could kill you right now!
Maero: You won't.
Me: Trust me, if he won't, I will!
Maero: Ariann. I didn't see you there. Finally decide to give daddy a chance?
He smirked, and I rolled my eyes.
Me: You could never have me!
Maero: Sure about that?
