I was in this bitch mad as hell. I wanted Jamel's fucking head. This man is really out here infected like a motherfucker and fucking with people. He better hope to god I don't see his ass ever again. I may end up killing him. I do not play when it comes to Mo's safety and well-being. I looked up from my clenched fists and at Isaiah. By the time I had got to the club he was already in full out brawl with Jamel. 

"Ain't Jamel supposed to be your partner?" I asked him. "What were y'all fighting over?"

"I was tagged in the post," he mumbled. "Taylor called me crying saying she might have it because her and Jamel were sleeping around together on the low."

I chuckled and shook my head. "Wow. And here I thought for a split second you actually gave a fuck about Mo. Guess I should've known better."

"You don't know shit," he spat. "I tried getting Jamel to back off her. I did what I could do."

"Bullshit! There's a lot you could've fucking did. As her BROTHER you have a fucking obligation to protect her but you rather be a bitch ass nigga."

"What the hell did you expect me to do?! Go up to her and tell her to back off of Jamel?! She wouldn't have listened to and you want to know why? Because she hates me!"

"You don't know shit," I chuckled. I grunted in pain at my aching shoulder. I was able to get medical treatment for it. The bullet went straight through thankfully so I just needed to get stitched up. Thankfully Mo ass didn't get hit. "Anyone who knows the REAL Mo knows damn well she doesn't hate you. She loves you a lot more than you deserve. Ever since she was little and scared of her own damn shadow all she wanted was a big brother to be there and protect her when her father couldn't. She had high hopes that one day y'all could have that type of relationship. She may not say it but she still has hope for a relationship like that."

Isaiah stared at the floor. "Why me? Why does she want me in her life?"

"Y'all really don't know huh?" I leaned back. "They're dead. Mo's parents, both of em died." He looked at me in surprise. "Happened about ten years ago. They were living out in Cali and were planning on bringing Mo over for the summer. He wanted you and Taylor to come too so y'all can bond and mend your relationship as siblings. I guess he was also going to tell you why he left. Mo's mom was pregnant too so they really wanted to be a family again with you guys. They got into a car accident involving a drunk driver."

"H-How did you know?" he croaked. 

"I went to the funeral with Mo and mama told us the truth. Y'all were supposed to be there but ya snake ass mom wasn't having it. Mo didn't get to have y'all dad like y'all did. She was always a secret, hiding in the shadows. She wants to know what he was like as a person and the only person that can tell her that is you. She doesn't have any other family dumb ass. Why else would she want you in her life?"

"Damn," he said while his head dropped in his hands. "I can't believe he's been dead all this time."

"And Mo has been going through that alone. You should've let that petty beef go a long time ago and been a better brother to her."

"This isn't just my fault," he snapped. "What about you Zy? Why the hell didn't you stop her? Everyone, literally everyone, knew how in love you are with Mo. If you had just bucked up and told her how you felt sooner she wouldn't have been entertaining Jamel in the first place."

I glared at him but didn't say anything. He was right after all. If I had been more honest with how I felt we probably wouldn't be in this predicament. Now, I'm probably going to be sent back to jail and I can't afford that. I got a child man. I'm all Cadie's got. I can't leave my little girl man. I just can't.

I really want to take a nap.....

Tell me what you all think. I know it's a really short update. Have no idea how that happened. 😳😳😳
