PROJECT GIRL

thirty-two

SEMAJPOV:
Checking the time on my phone I seen that it was going on 2:30 in the morning. I had been at the office since I left the house. I've been using all my connections to find this bitch. I couldn't wrap my mind around Marco being so careless.

Speaking of the devil himself. In walked in Marco. He was indeed my cousin but it was bad blood between us still for years now. For him to really let something like this happen it makes me really feel some type of way.

"Yo cuzzo we need to talk." Marco said taking a seat in front of my desk.
"Unless you got a location for La La  or you already found and killed that bitch then we ain't got shit to talk about." I replied looking back down at papers on my desk.
"Cuzzo thats how you really coming?"
"You fucked me over once and I let you live You then wanted to help save Nana and whatever and now you put our lives right back at risk. You damn right thats how I'm coming."
"That's the problem you only care about you. Like you so fucking perfect like you don't make mistakes. You know damn well if Manaic would of did the same things  I did it would be different."
"You damn right I don't know if you did this on purpose or not. I don't trust shit. I don't trust you either. Maniac never once crossed me or lied to me or hid things from or anything. He was the one who kept it real from the start."
"I guess whatever." Marco clearly was catching an attitude.

"You switched up. Ty switched up. Baby switched up. I had all y'all backs I made sure that when I ate y'all had a plate made too. I made sure every last one of  y'all never had to struggle but what do y'all do. Y'all turn on me. This is what you get when you bite the hand that fed you. Now with that being said either go find or kill La La. Or you can do nothing and leave me the hell alone." Once I said that Marco had nothing to no longer say. He walked out of my office without nothing more to say.

Once I was done working at the office I drove home. I just felt like I had bunch of stuff on my mind. When I got in the house it was 5:00 in the morning. I walked in my bedroom to see Nana laying in the bed sleep.

I went to shower. Once I was done I went to join her in bed. The next morning I woke up to the smell of Nana's cooking. It was good to have her back home.

I walked downstairs Nana was fully dressed and her hair was in a neat bun.
"Good morning baby." Nana placed a kiss on my lips.
"Good monring I see you out the bed early." I took a seat at the table.
"Yeah I told Tanya I would go with her to the mall. So I'm going to pick her up from the doctors then we're gonna have a day together." She brought over our plates and then took a seat.
"That's good I don't want you trying to rush back to how things were before."
"Baby I can't sit around her and be sad all day I need to get out and get my mind off things."
"Baby I hear you just don't try and over do stuff."
"Alright Father." Nana kissed me on the lips before she left out.
I deeply felt hurt that we lost the baby. Trying to hold it together for Nana it's been harder for me
I knew that baby meant a lot to me and Nana and for Ty and That rat ass bitch to take that opportunity from us. I knew that I had to find her and make her pay for the shit she is putting my family through. I wiped my tears off my face then got up to go get myself dressed and ready.

Before going to handle business I went to my mothers house to pay my son a visit. With everything going on at home I left my mother to watch Prince for me. I loved my son and since shit was getting way to deep with this Ty shit I've been keeping him far enough away from me to keep him alive. I wasn't and still is unsure of how long it's gonna take for things to clear up but I knew it was to happen soon.

When I got there I seen Prince playing with his toys it made me hurt even more. I love my son and I only wanted to work to make sure he never had to struggle like I did. Knowing I was missing time with him to deal with the streets made me realize I had to quit putting my life on line and put my kids first. I lost one child to the streets I'll be damn if I lose another one.
"Hey Semaj." My mom said giving me a kiss on the cheek.
"Hey mom." I replied less happy. I watched Prince play with his toys having a ball.
"Baby he is fine he knows your busy and he knows you love him that's why he's here and not with you."
"Mom I never meant to hurt my family I just wanted to get money and never have to worry."
"Baby I know. It's the price you pay when you decide to do things like that."
"Mom I swear I never meant to bring Nana so much hurt I could tell she hurting but there is nothing I can do I just have to let her heal. And it makes it no better that it was her friend that was plotting against her and I have to find her before someone else gets hurts."

"Baby you have to relax and focus on. your family and not the streets Nana needs your undivided attention. She needs to know your here for her and that she can cry to you and for you to hold her. You can't do that if your dead or in jail so your gonna have to choose whether you are gonna continue to be in the streets or are you going to be there for your family." My mother was getting to me. She was actually helping me realize my problems.
"Mom I hear. You and I know I have to get it together."
"I want you to be better than your father and I want Prince to see his dad more."
"I got you mom."
"I know."

After talking with my mom for a bit I made my way to handle some business for the club. After things were handled I went to pick up a few things from the mall for Nana. It had been a minute since I splurged on my baby girl. She always goes to buy herself things when she feels like it but I haven't personally went out to take the time to think about the things that she wanted.
I went Victoria secrets , Gucci, and I stopped in this jewelry spot to get a chain custom made for Baby girl. I spent crazy money on it but I knew she would be happy so I wasn't worried.
After the jewelry spot I went to footlocker to cash out on some kicks for my baby girl. I also saw a couple of sneakers that I found dope and I bought them for myself.
After the mall I went home when I got there I saw that Nana still wasn't home so I hurried inside to work on cooking dinner for the night. I knew Nana always prepared the meals for the house but I wanted to make her feel special.
I began to work on dinner so I went for one of Nana's favorite meals from me which was my shrimp alfredo. Nana loved when I made it she would say "It was like having bomb high sex with me." Whenever she would eat it. 

Once I was just finishing up dinner Nana came walking in the house. She had a big smile on her face. She was clearly happy that I was doing this little  sweet gesture for her.
"Baby what's all this?" Nana said kissing me on the lips.
"I went out today to do something for you. I haven't did anything for you in a while."
"Baby you know I love you and this stuff don't mean shit. I'm not after this stuff I'm after your heart and time."
"I know but I wanted to do this for you so just enjoy it."
"Alright then."
"Actually you can go wash your hands so we can eat dinner."
"Awww my baby made me dinner I'm so blessed to have you here." Nana kissed me before going to wash her hands.
When she came back I had the whole table already set and I sat our plates down and waited for her take her seat so I could push her seat in and then take a seat.
"Baby this is so good." Nana said letting out a slight moan.
"Is it that good?"
"Baby yes its so good."
"How was your day?"
"It was good. I finally got out the house and I'm ready to get back on my shit. I can't sit around and feel bad for myself."
"Baby I don't want you to rush yourself."
"I'm not stop saying that I'm just trying a different way to get through this shit."
"Baby I'm here and I'm hurting just like you but my main focus is on making sure you and Prince are good."
"That's why I appreciate you."
"I love you baby girl."
"I love you too Daddy." She kissed me and I met her half way.
I knew it was up to me to get that bitch before she caused anymore hurt to my family. Just then my phone started ringing it was Danny. I answered and heard her screaming and everyone screaming in the phone.
"Yo!" I shouted standing up. Trying piece together what she was saying but I couldn't she kept stopping to cry and scream. Something was wrong. "Danny what happen?"
"They shot Issac!" Danny began to cry loudly. I dropped my phone and froze. I could talk or move. My brain had went dead. I know she didn't just say my brother is shot. Why him ?why now? Was he gonna be alright? Should I be worried? Those questions came to me but I couldn't even find answers and I was so stuck I couldn't move right away.
"Baby is everything okay?" Nana stood up and held my hands as she looked at me in my face which had told her that something was absolutely wrong.
"It's Isaac... he was shot." I broke down and cried in her arms. Nana just held me and I could hear her crying too.
"Baby we need to go see if he is already."
"I can't go."
"You need to look at me." She lifted my head then we made eye contact."You and I are going together. Issac is strong and he will be good. Let's go your mother needs you too. I'll go with you baby." She stood me up then we grabbed her keys. Nana decided to take her car and she would drive.
