"LIL I NEED YOUR HELP!" I said busting through the backdoor of his house scaring the shyt out of him, the look on his face was on of pure terror as he took in my appearance; I was covered in dirt and blood, Khalil looked somewhere stuck between scared and nervous.
"Zy what happened?" He asked moving towards me but I quickly crossed the room.
"I don't have time to explain, I cut that damn ankle monitor off and did something....... bad. Look bro I need your help getting out the country once I'm someplace safe I'll call and let you know what happened but right now I really need your help." I said pleading with my eyes. "Please......" I said my voice cracking.
"Okay look we'll call Marcus.... yeah that's what we'll do..... Marcus will handle this." Khalil said panicking.
"DAMMIT KHALIL WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT!!!! I'M NOT GOING BACK TO JAIL!!!!" I said knocking a bunch of stuff off of the counter. "Look if you've every had love for me as a brother then you'll help me do this." I said putting my hand on his shoulder.
"Right...... first thing we need to do is get you cleaned up. You gotta shave that beard and cut your hair too....... I'll call Devin and have him grab some dye and other stuff. Look everything is going to be fine, don't worry about Toussaint and Trinity I'll take care of them until everything cools down a lit......." KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!!!! "Fuck that's probably the police. Look go down to the game room behind the vending machine there's a panic room, the code is Cori's birthday and once locked it can only be opened from the inside trust me I......"
"FREEZE!!!!" Someone shouted from behind him and Khalil quickly put his hands up, I couldn't hold back any longer I started laughing, the look of confusion on Khalil faces was definitely worth being covered in dirt and fake blood. He turned around to find Marcus and Devin standing there trying not to laugh.
"THIS SHYT AIN'T FUNNY!!! YA'LL KNOW I CAN'T BE DEALING WITH THIS KIND OF STRESS!!!" Khalil said pissed. "All ya'll get out my house yeah you too Marcus...... but you're going to clean this shyt up first." Khalil said.
"Come on little bro you know this shyt is funny, you were about to commit several felonies for your big bro and for that I thank you." I said laughing, I could see Khalil calming down a little but he was still pissed.
"So I take it you're free?" Khalil said sitting back down.
"Yeah I just got that damn thing taken off...... and just in case you're still mad it was all Marcus's idea." I said smiling.
"It doesn't matter because I'm going to get all three of y'all back. Now we got a lot to discuss now that you're up and moving." Khalil said quietly.
"Exactly, but first let me get cleaned up." I said walking to the bathroom to get back to my usual sexy self. After an hour in the shower I walked back downstairs where Khalil, Devin and Marcus were sitting around talking. "So first and foremost what are we going to do about Julius, we know he's somewhere in or around Atlanta I just need to get an exact location." I said sitting down.
"Well until we get an exact location there isn't too much we can do but there is something we can deal with....... Iman. Look I tried to be the bigger person and let it go but I can't, Nico is playing a very dangerous game and I just have a feeling Iman is going to try and use Nico." Devin said.
"Then there's Linda........ from what Smoke told me she back in Texas, causing some trouble here and there but nothing really worth mentioning." Khalil said.
"Leave Linda to me..... as for Iman well I can't really do anything because I just got off but I'll be having him watched closely. I still feel the biggest problem is Julius, cut off the head and the body will fall." I said seriously.
"True Julius is the biggest issue right now and I think I have a plan to draw him out, but it requires me to go to Atlanta for a while." Marcus said and I saw Khalil's knuckles turn white. "Look Khalil it's dangerous but I'm willing to try, the only people who will know what's going on is the four of us that way no one can mess up the plan this time." Marcus said referring to Young Mon........ As badly as I wanted to be pissed at him I couldn't because if the shoe was on the other foot everyone would like to think they could remain loyal but you don't really know until you're put in that situation.
"Look we can go over this later...... right now I just wanna go get me some In and Out Burger, pick my sons up from school and do something that doesn't require me to be within 100 feet of my house." I said standing up, just as I was about to leave the kitchen a bunch of voices made their way to us; Saint, Noah and a bunch of their friends came into the kitchen with a very peculiar smell to them......
"Why aren't y'all at school?" Khalil asked.
"We got out early, wassup dad. We'll be downstairs....." Saint said quickly moving to the basement. I'd deal with that later
"Well I guess that puts a hold on my plans, I got a couple hours until Trinity gets out of school so I guess I'll go check and make sure you didn't fuck things up too bad." I said smiling at Khalil.
"Good I'll come with you......." Khalil said kissing Marcus and following me out.
We got to my company and everything was running a lot better than before I left, in just under two months Khalil had completely changed everything for the better, a lesser man would've been jealous but not me all I knew is it was more money in all of our pockets. We got upstairs and sat in my office.
"So you were serious about this whole making movies thing." I said going over some papers. "And you hired Vanessa as you're personal assistant..... good I was tired of all Saint little friends coming over just to stare at her. But look Thanksgivings coming up which mean we have just about two months before the new year, I want that nigga dead before the ball drops......." I said looking into Khalil's eyes.
"Me too...... but we gotta be smarter than last time and I won't hesitate or let anyone stop me." Khalil said quietly.
"You're not a killer Khalil...... and Ramone did what he had to, I...... we would be hypocrites to ever hold protecting his sister against him. Should he have told us? Of course but we also should've known something was up with him other than that Nico shyt... or rather I should've known." I said leaning back..... god I missed this chair. "But there's one more thing I wanna talk to you about, I need you to watch Saint and Trinity for a couple days next week...... now that I'm free there's somewhere I have to go, Ramone has been talking to Yuri and I have a pretty good idea of where he's at."
"No problem..... but you should probably know that as of right now I'm officially resigning as acting CEO, actually I'm thinking about retiring probably take a trip with Noah and Cori, spend some time with Marquise, give Mama Angela a break probably spend her somewhere to relax........ get back to my family, maybe you should consider taking a break as well once all this is over and done with." Khalil said and I laughed him off.
"I just got back from a break I'm ready to work....... but I will take this Friday off to go to one of Saint's games." I said smiling. "When does Gonzo and Legacy get back?" I asked.
"The day after tomorrow, unless Legacy convinces him to stay a little bit longer which is very possible." Khalil said and we spent the next couple hours just talking and planning; I had a list of people and things I needed to deal with; Julius, Linda, Iman, Nico, Saint and his new habit, Yuri....... god this was going to be a very busy week but it was a lot better than sitting in the house doing nothing, I've been doing a lot of sitting around but now it was time to get on the field and personally handle things........................
