Janelle's POV

Matthew and Janelle are still at Janelle's house and Janelle gets a text from Addison's mom...

Addison was shot in a driveby shooting and she hasn't woke up yet...

"Baby, we have to go to the hospital like right now" Janelle says pacing back and forth.

"Why, what's wrong?" Matthew says with concern

"It's Addison, she was shot in a drive by shooting an- and now she's in the hospital." Janelle starts crying

"Oh shit okay let's go, now."Matthew grabs his keys

Fast forward, Matthew and Janelle are at the hospital and they see Addison's mom.. they see Addison in a hospital bed...

"Thank you guys for coming.." Addison's mom says with a frown and tears falling down her face.

"Of course.." Janelle says while hugging Addy's mom

"How did this happen!?" Matthew says with anger

"She was in her room and when I passed by her room I heard crying.. so I knocked on her door.. to see if she was okay... I should of opened her door... She left the house through her window and she had the keys to the bently and she left... next thing I know I get a call from the police.. saying she was caught up in a driveby and she was shot.." she said while crying even more.

The police are still looking for the alleged shooters in the drive-by..

All of Matthew's emotions are overcome with anger and with a strong need of revenge... He remembers that his big brother has a gun in his bedroom...

"I gotta go" Matthew walks away with rage in his eyes

Matthew's POV

Fast forward, Matthew is at his house and he's in his big brother's room searching for the gun..he finds it...

" Whoever the fuck shot my best friend is gonna pay..." Matthew mumbles to himself.

"Bruh what the fuck are you doing!? Matt, put the gun down bro.."
Says Andrew with caution..(Matthew's big brother)

"My best friend was shot last night... I want to kill the person who did this.." Matthew spat

"Damn bro... She okay right?" Says Andrew

"Yeah she's okay but refuse to let whoever did this get away with this.." Matthew said.

"Little bro.. I think it's time to tell you..." Andrew slowly approaches Matthew and grabs the gun with caution.

"TELL ME WHAT! there's no time for storytelling, Andrew" Matthew is highly upset

"Our family is part of one of the biggest gangs in California, the westside druglords..."Andrew proceeds to show Matthew a tattoo on his arm with the gang label.

"Woah.. so how am I just knowing about this?" Matthew spat

"It wasn't time for you to know bro... you're just a kid.. but now you're mature enough to at least know about it." Andrew explains.

"Oh fuck okay fine lemme join.. please bro I want to find who did this and get my rounds in." Matthew spat with anger.

"Nope.. no absolutely not.. listen I don't want this life for you okay.. once you're a druglord, you're always a druglord the only escape is jail or death and I want neither for you bro.."
"Okay listen I will call up the other druglords I'll see what I can do about this" Andrew explains to Matthew.
