Jason*
I can't believe I saw those fools the other night. They sitting there like nothing happened. And then Melissa survived all that I did to her and that baby. And he survived too. He does look like me. I should get my son from both of them. He don't deserve to be with Alonzo. He just keep taking everything from me. First he took my girl and now he got my son. This is going to stop. I got a plan in action. I'm going to kill Melissa if it's the last thing I do. And if that son of hers ain't careful I'll kill him too. I got to get in the way of them to get this done. Once I get the area of where they at it's all over for her.

Amira*
I heard Kwan on the phone with his mama. He sounds so sad. I don't know what to do for him. He's never looked or acted this way. My dad has tried all he could but things are getting worse and worse. I don't like this. Mama making this so hard for all of us. Maybe if I call grandma and tell her what mama is doing she can come by and talk to her. Yeah that's what I'm going to do. I called grandma phone and she answered immediately.

"Hey grandma what you doing?" Amira asked.

"Nothing baby. Just watching tv. What's wrong?"

"How did you know something was wrong?"

"Cause I know you. Now tell me what's wrong."

"It's mommy."

"What? Do I need to come?"

"Yes grandma. She's still treating Kwan bad and Mama Melissa."

"Really now?"

"Yes grandma and a lot has happened. That Jason man found us and threaten to hurt them."

"Oh my. Where's your daddy?"

"He's in the bed."

"Did he know you was calling me?"

"No mam."

"Ok I'll call him and tell him I'm making a pop up visit."

"Ok thank you grandma."

"Anything for my grand baby. Now go to bed I love you and will see you in the morning."

"Ok Grandma."

Patrice*
Well I know y'all don't know me so let me explain who I am. I'm Patrice. Jalisha mom. My husband died some years back and I had to raise her by myself. When she moved and got the job at the hospital I was so happy for her. But then she started getting into this thing with Alonzo. I love him to death but I kept telling her she didn't want to get into something like this. He was a married man and she broke their home. Now my baby Amira is calling for help. And I be damned if I will sit back and let her go through this alone. So I'm packing my bags and getting ready to hit the road tonight. Tomorrow is Saturday so traffic is hell. I'm a night rider anyway. Traffic is light and I can move like I want to. I packed all my bags in the car and put gas in the car and hit the highway. I played my music and sung along as I drove. I should make it there in about 7 hours. She will be shocked to see me but this is a must. She know I didn't raise her like this.

Alonzo*
We got up and showered so we can get breakfast started for the kids.

"Good morning baby." I said to Jalisha.

"Good morning."

What's for breakfast?"

"What you want?"

"Well I would love some country ham and eggs grits toast and some orange juice."

"Well if that's what you want that's what I'll make."

I leaned down and kissed her lips.

"Thanks baby."

"You welcome."

Jalisha went to start breakfast and I went to wake the kids. I went to Kwan room first. I opened the door and he was already up and dressed.

"Hey son. How you feeling today?"

"I'm fine dad."

"Cool well hurry up breakfast will be ready soon."

"Ok." Kwan said.

I walked to Amira room and she was fast asleep. I sat next to her on the bed and kissed her all over her face.

"Daddy stop. I'm sleepy." Amira yelled covering her face with her hands.

"What time did you go to bed last night?"

"I don't know about 10."

"And why was you up that time of the morning?"

"Talking to grandma."

"Grandma who?" Alonzo asked puzzled.

"Grandma Patrice."

"You called her last night?"

"Yes sir."

"Why?"

"Cause I told her she need to come see about mama. She was making everyone life miserable and something needs to be done."

"Amira that was not your place to do."

"I know daddy but I was only trying to help Kwan."

"I understand your concern for your brother but you can't go and do things like that."

"Why not daddy? I'm tired of this with mama. She hates us and I'll rather go live with Mama Melissa than you keep dealing with her." Amira said as her eyes got watery.

"Don't say that Amira."

"But it's true daddy. I've never seen Kwan this depressed and I overheard his phone call with his mom last night."

"And what did he say?"

"He said he will rather live with her because he's not wanted here. He feels this is all his fault. And knowing that man still making threats to them has him scared. He don't believe that you can protect him at all. I'm not gonna lie daddy I'm scared too."

"Baby you don't have to be scared. I will protect you and Kwan. Now go downstairs and get ready for breakfast. I'll be right down."

See this is what I'm talking about. My entire family is affected by this. All because Jalisha won't do right. I can't keep taking this kind of pressure. I called my mother and law and she picked right up.

"Hey mama. How are you doing?"

"I'm good son."

"I just had a little talk with Amira and she told me you was coming?"

"Yeah actually I'm pulling up in your driveway as we speak." Patricia said.

I looked out the window and damn she was. I love my mother in law but she is a hand full. Let me prepare my mind for this shit.

Was Amira wrong for calling?

Will she be of help?

What will happen next?
