Beef, Lies & Crime

The Vision

Zariah's Point of View

When Courtney texted me I knew I had to make up any excuse of why I couldn't be there right away. I had to call Alex and Alexis so that we can set something up or at least try. I called Alexis but she didn't answer so I called Alex and he picked up as soon as I was about to hang up.

"Yoo." He said.
"Cuz meet me at your house now. They want me to come over there so I need a plan."
"Say no more. Imma be there in 5 minutes. Where you at?"
"In front of your house. I called Alexis cause I knocked and nobody answered."
"I'm not sure where the hell she can be. We'll figure it out later. Peace." He said hanging up.

I called Alexis again and again but she still didn't pick up I wondered where the hell she was at. It wasn't like her to not answer her phone. Alex got there right as I hung up again. I called her about 5 times. No answer each time.

"Lets go inside. Remind me to make you a key." He said.
"No problem. Cause I hate standing outside and people watching me." I said annoying people peeping through their curtains.
"They always watching our house even when we aren't here. They my peoples so don't worry."
"Okay." I said with some relief that I was being protected and not stalked.
"So what you wanna do?" He asked as we sat on the couch.
"Maybe lure him out the house."
"Why that way? You can kill him in the house."
"Yea but then Courtney's there too unless I poison him and she doesn't know he's dead until I'm long gone. Cause he always fall asleep when we finish."
"Yea we can do that but its gonna take me some time before I can get the poison so next time you see him things will go in motion."
"Okay. I gotta go. Its been almost 2 hours and I told them I'll be there in 2 hours."
"Okay lil cuz. Be safe. Imma find Alexis."
"Please do and when you do tell her Imma beat her ass for not answering my calls." I said clearly upset with her. He laughed and nodded.

I left and headed to Red's.

Alexis' Point of View

I never answer my phone when I go visit Adonis. I had to show him some respect. So only he had my attention when I was there. My phone kept ringing but I didn't care. All I cared about was talking to my big brother. Red deserves everything that's coming to him honestly. He was a jealous psychopath. I finally looked at my phone walking away from his grave and I had 10 missed calls from Zariah. Just as I was about to call her back Alex was calling.

"Wassup bro."
"Why you not answering your phone? You had Zariah calling me talking about you not answering." He said sounding annoyed. That's how he always get when I don't answer my phone.
"Sorry I was visiting Adonis. You know how that go."
"Okay that makes sense. I should've thought about that. I thought one of these niggas took you."
"Yea right. Im not going down without a fight. Plus, I carry Derrick's gun with me now."
"Smart girl. But Zariah went to see Red. We put a plan in motion but its for the next time she sees him."
"Okay. We'll catch up on that later. I'm heading back to town now."
"Cool. I'm going to sleep. Be safe." He said before hanging up.

Emily's Point of View

I knew my girl would come through for me. She had the key. All I needed was that and I can tell Ashley so we can have a plan. I can't lose my sister because she's associated with Alex. So that gave us easy access. Brianna finally got to my house.

"Wassup babe. I'm glad you did that favor for me." I said to her giving her a kiss.
"Anything for you baby." She said handing me a key. "Now, why did you want it?"
"Cause Red is a threat to Alex which means he's a threat to my sister and I can't have that. She's all I got left."

We lost our parents to a home invasion right before our last year in high school. We were in cheerleading practice when it happened. We came home to see police everywhere in our house. There was blood everywhere in the house. We had to throw the carpet away because it had so much blood in it. Our parents room was the same way they left it. All we did was dust it down and spray my mom's perfume every Sunday.

"I know babe. You have me too."
"Yea but you bi-curious. I know I'm a lesbian. That's why I haven't dated any guys since middle school and that was a dare." I said to her.
"I know babe. But I've been cheating on you and I apologize for it. I've been sleeping with Red and Courtney." She said with sad eyes.
"Listen, you did what you did because you chose to, not because you had to but when you ready to be serious about us then come holla at me." I said clearly upset. I knew in my guts she was fucking them cause who really be over there that much and doesn't.
"I'm sorry. After I put the original key back imma. End it with her." She said trying to make things better.
"It doesn't matter we were supposed to tell each other before we had sex with someone else. No secrets, so nobody could get hurt." I said clearly still upset but trying to think with a leveled head.
"Well, I'm sorry. I gotta go meet Darshel so I'm gonna talk to you later." She said in a sad tone while walking out. I just sighed and asked myself why do I even bother with her sometimes.

Shells' Point of View

I got to the house and Brianna didn't even get there. She's never on time but shit neither am I cause its 8:15. I went to the kitchen to get something to drink and I heard the house door opening. My natural instinct was to grab my gun. It didn't matter if I knew it was my sister. The one day I didn't pull out my gun Reggie almost killed me. Luckily, Alex was coming through to my crib that day or I would've been dead. That's why I owe him so much loyalty. I peeped out the kitchen and seen Reggie. Again this nigga trying to sneak up on me to kill me. He didn't like the fact that me and Alex took Rodney in cause Reggie wasn't gonna make the money anymore. They moms hella sick and had medical bills that needs to be paid but Reggie refuse to let Rodney be down with us. I cocked my gun before he could even turn around.

"Why are you here Reggie?" I asked calmly.
"Where's my brother?" He asked while raising his arms.

Before I could respond Brianna walked in.

Enjoy. Sorry for the delay. My phone wouldn't let me copy and paste had to write it over. New chapter coming soon. 😊
