Tokyo

“What’s wrong?” Glory asked as I laid back down. “My cousins. They mad ’cause I ain’t been there watching Tori. Hell, she’s grown. “What did Tori want when she called?” he asked, rubbing my belly. “Talking about did I order pizza because the pizza man there.” “And what did you say?” “Why?” I asked. “What did you say?” he asked again. “I hung up in that hoe face. She play too much. Know damn well I didn’t order no pizza.” “Put some clothes on,” he said as he threw me my jeans and put his shirt back on. “What? Why?” I asked. “If you didn’t order pizza, then that means somebody just gave her a reason to open the

door, Tokyo. Damn. Don’t be so stupid. Hurry up,” he said, grabbing his keys. “They coulda had the wrong door,” I said as we rushed to his jeep. But not before he grabbed his piece. “Don’t be so naïve.” He started the ignition and sped right off. “So who do you think ordered it?” I asked. “Whoever blew her car up, Tolyo.” “But why send a pizza man.” “Because would you answer the door for a random man, and your son was just kidnapped?” “No.” “But would you answer it for a pizza man?” “Yes,” I responded. “Harmless… right?” he asked. “Shit.” “See why everyone is mad?” he asked calmly, but drove like a maniac to get to our place. “Yes, but they didn’t have to be so rude,”

I said, referring to Malina and Divine. “They must know something that you don’t. How did they sound?” He asked. “Like they were in a rush.” “Yeah, they done figured it out too.” “Oh my God. Tori. I’m so sorry,” is all I could say to myself. Thanks to me, my sister was probably dead. I started to panic and hyperventilate. “Whats wrong?” he asked. “My sister is dead.” “She ain't dead, love. Don’t think like that. I’ma make sure she good. Feel me?” “Okay.” “Just sit back and be cool. I got it.” “But what if he already got her?” My mind kept thinking of the worst. First Zion, now her? What was going on with our lives? When we finally got to our place, Glory told me to wait in the car as he went up. I said, cool. I didn’t have any guns anyway. I kept looking at my window to watch for any clues.

Then I saw Glory go in. The door was already unlocked because all he did was push it open and that’s when I heard shots fired. I ran up the stairs and into the apartment. I couldn’t see anything at first until the smoke cleared. “Oh shit.”
