                         TONI

"Zoey " I yelled her name as I walked in the door slamming it behind me . She stood at the top of the step holding her back with one hand and rubbing her belly with the other . "What? " she responded clearly with an attitude . What's up her ass?

Ignoring her attitude I began to state my problem." I slept with her and that wasn't the plan at all I swear ." Zoey rolled her eyes "your about one of the most selfish people I know . You know that ?"

I look down then walk over to the kitchen . "No I'm not done your going to fuck around and get your ass caught up . Like damn Toni " she continued going off on me as she followed me into the kitchen.

"Bagel ? " I asked while bitting into my bagel . Zoey sighed in disbelief then walked over to me . "I'm done talking . When shit hits the fan don't come looking for me to solve them . I'm tired of cleaning the messes you leave behind. " she grabbed my chin forcing me to look at her . Then released it when she was done going off .

"I love you to sis " she yelled as she walked off .

                   DAKOTA

"So what's up with you and ole girl " Justice my bestfriend asked . When she asked me about Toni a big kool aid smile peeped on my face . "Awww shit my boi whipped . So y'all did the nasty yet " she squealed while giving me some dap.

I chuckled "Yep and shorty game was bomb but seriously I think I'm falling for her . She's just ask so mysterious at times ya know . Sometimes I feel like I know everything thing about her then realize its something else to be learned . "

"I feel you if she worth it do what you gotta do bro . Yo who dat pulling up ." She pointed out the window at the black van . I watched closely as a woman got out of the car and walked to my front door . She looked behind her the proceed on dropping an envelope and getting back into the van .

"What the hell ?" I question as I opened the door ,but before I could pick up the letter they drove off . I checked my surroundings once more before picking up the letter . "Who was it ?" Justice asked.

The envelope held five grand with a note . " Some of the most poisonous people come disguised as friends and family. Watch who you surround yourself with , remember darling the devil was once an angel . Just consider this your way to escape ". I read that note to myself and began to try and figure out who wrote it . Friends and family ? 

"Helloooo Kota what was it ?" Justice yelled from the living room . "Ooh yeah my bad bro it was just some Girl Scouts" . She smacked her teeth "you should have got some cookies " justice mumbled something else under her breath .

I ran upstairs and hid the envelope in my shoe . Making sure it was stuffed in there secure I pushed it under my bed . Escape from what though ?

                        Zoey

Walking up to the garage I hear him yelling and fussing. What I can't seem to understand is why they didn't tape his mouth. I roll my eyes as I put in the pin to get into the garage.

"So we ran out of tape ? " I ask while closing the garage . " oh no it's some right here " James said while handing me the tape .

"You dumb piece of shit . I mean to tape his mouth . Idiots I swear " I throw the tape back at him and began to walk over to my dad . Oh let me correct myself "STEP " dad .

My stepdad laughs while shaking his head " look at you knocked up . By who now I'm surprised your able to conceive with the many abortion you had . "

"Look just let me go because you know she will come for you . Matter of fact having me here is playing with fire babydoll. " he says smugly .

"Look here bitch were playing Zoey's game right now . I make the rules and matter of fact life or death is in my hands . No more you choosing the rules and everyone else being pons in this sick game . I suggest you start kissing my ass because you know what they say about pregnancy hormones." I snatch the gun and point it at his head . He begins to plead for his life . I laugh then smirk " Punk ass " .

I put the gun on the ground and kick it over to James . "Now that we understand stand each other " I walked over to him and grabbed his chin so that he was looking me in the eye . "Where is Omar ?" 

He didn't answer my question so I assumed he's deaf . I give James the signal and he shoots his leg . "Awww shit " he yelled  . "Fuckin bitch " he cried out loud .

"Once again where is Omar ? " I roll my eyes at his bitching ass . He hesitated at first but then gave me the info I asked for " Up on the hills next to the red house "

"Thanks pops " I say then walk out  .  "Damn she's fineeeeeee " James admired my figure as I walked out .

A/N : Sooooooo I guess Zoey has some secrets as well ......🤔🤔🤔🤔
