I walked down the hall and scratched my stomach as I yawned. I looked at my son, Ivan who was on the couch watching the news.

I squinted my eyes trying to make out what the reporter was saying.

"Aye, cut it up." I told him and he grabbed the remote and cut the volume up.

"We are now on the scene of the mysterious massacre here in Liberty City. Just last night, more than twenty lives were taken here at the Nights Inn motel. Detective Sharon Collins says she is not giving up on this case anytime soon. Here is what one witness, has to say about the horrifying event that recently occurred." The reporter said.

A fragile older looking woman appeared on the screen and began to speak.

"I was minding my own business, getting ready to make some collard greens and next thing you know POW! I heard gunshots so I called the police" the woman explained.

Ivan grew frustrated and cut the TV off. "X needs to learn to stop being so fucking messy when he kills people." He mumbled and I nodded in agreement.

Xavier Falls, how do I go to describe? He's my best friends son, also my sons best friend. I've known that little nigga all his life, and he's never scared and I wasn't worried about him.

"I actually came out here to talk to you." I stated and he turned his full attention to me and nodded. "What the fuck is this shit?!" I snapped holding up a news paper that said two males had robbed a bank only a few blocks from here.

My son shrugged and tried to act like he didn't know what I was talking about but I knew it was him and Xavier who did it.

"You and X are getting to reckless with this shit. If the law came and got you right now I'm not bailing you out, remember that." I said sternly and he scoffed.

"We know what we doing. Plus, its all X's ideas most of the time I just go with his stupid ass because I would feel guilty if he got hurt and I wasnt there to protect him." He said simply and I shrugged taking a seat next to him on the couch and took the remote, flipping through channels.

Loud knocking caused me to shoot up out of my seat quickly and look out the peephole seeing an officer.

"Who that pops?!" Ivan whisper- yelled and I cut my eyes at him.
