//Dre POV//
"Did you take care of who killed Bird?" I ask my Pops as we sat in his office.
"Yeah, I had that handle real fast. But Brandon is in a very special place." He put extra emphasis on the word "very".
"What about who tried to kill us today?" Cameron said sitting on the arm of my chair.
"Y'all said they wanted Steve dead, right?"
"Yeah." We said in unison.
"I only know a few people who would want Steve dead." He dialed a number on his office phone.
"The Sprint server your trying to reach is no longer in service." A recorded voice said.
"Shit now what?" I said.
"Imma send some boys out to see what the streets saying." He said fixing his tie.
"Y'all find them niggas!?" Red said rolling in the office all fast and shit. I laughed to myself.
"No and when we do, you staying here." Pops said.
"Man this shit is embarrassing!" Red yelled.
"It's okay come with me, so I can get you moving." Cameron said pushing him.
"Aye Pops can you send people out to Mia's house?" Red said before he fully left the room.
"Yeah son."
"Red is a character." Pops laughed standing up out his seat.
I just nodded my head because I got a text from Ariyah.
I know we're done, but you officially don't have to worry about me anymore. I'm moving to Texas with my Aunt. All jokes aside, stay out them streets and be careful. REAL SHIT I love you Dre. -Ariyah
I didn't understand why she was moving and they graduation was in a few months . But that's not my business tho, so I ain't even reply.
"Well I'm bout to send some boys out and have them get back to me. We got to find them before they find us." My pops said interrupting my thoughts.
"Yeah alright." I said. Ariyah made me think about Keeda. I shouldn't be worried about her right now, but I just had a funny feeling. I decided to call her just to make sure she's safe.
It rung twice and sent me to voicemail. Then I called back and it did the same thing. I walked next door to where Red and Cameron was.
"Red, Keeda not answering." I said.
He patted his pockets. "Damn I must have dropped my phone back at Cameron's house.."
Keeda was calling back and I put it on speaker.
"Where you at?" I asked.
"She can't come to the phone right now." A raspy white man voice said.
"Yo who the fuck is this?" I demanded.
"DREEE! Come get us! These mothafu-" She yelled in the phone and he cut her off. "She has a smart tongue.. I wonder how smart is she without it." He laughed and hanged up before I could react.
"Shit these mothafuckas got my baby mama!" I shouted trying to call back, but only getting a voicemail.
"She said us." Red said slowly. "Who is us?" He continued.
"Does she has any sisters, parents, children, or close friends?" Cameron asked.
"Mia...." Red said.
