If you need a refresher reread the two chapters prior to this. Also this is kind of the short chapter but it is very important!!

Jamal POV

"Did y'all hear?" I ask bursting into my fathers office. Becky told me to wait outside because my moms in here but I couldn't.

"Hear what?" My dad snaps leaning back off my mom who is propped up on his desk. I don't wanna know what they were doing.

"Anika" I say pacing.

"Yeah she's getting out so what" my mom interjects while buttoning her top back up.

"So what? That woman tried to kill you, kidnapped dad, and ruined our lives at one point. You're not in the slightest bit worried ?" I question.

"No" both my parents say in unison.

"What!? what if she comes after you guys again, but this time she succeeds?" I ask plopping down on my dads plush sofa.

"Mal she's not that stupid, she knows that if she comes around us she'll be violating probation and they'll send her ass back to prison. Trust me that's the last thing boo boo kitty's bougiee self wants to do" my mom jokes while fixing her hair in the mirror.

"I guess but just watch out guys, don't put anything past her" I warn. For some reason I've got a really bad feeling about this.

"We know son, don't worry okay" my dad assures "how's your album coming?" He adds sitting down in his chair.

"I finished like half of it but I'm kind of stuck on this song" I admit.

"Maybe you need a change in scenery" my mom suggests.

"Yeah whenever I get writer's block I go do something fun and change up where I'm writing.. most of the time that helps me write my best songs" my dad adds.

"Alright, I'm gonna try that" I say turning to leave.

"Hey son" my dad calls making me turn around.

"Yeah?" I ask confused.

"Bust in my office again and see what happens" my dad threatens making me, my mom and Becky laugh.

"Man whatever " I chuckle walking down the hall towards the elevator. As the floors tick by I can't help but wonder what I could do right now that would be really fun. Skye has interviews all day, Xavier is with Skye's mom, Hakeem and Andre are both busy so it's just me.

As I reach the ground floor my phone begins to ring.

"Hello" I say as I step off the elevator.

"Hey Jamal it's Bryson" stopping dead in my tracks I remove my phone from my ear then look down at the number.

"Oh, Bryson, hi" I nervously say stepping out of sight.

"I haven't stopped thinking about seeing you in the coffee shop the other day.. and I was wondering if you'd like to hang out, as friends of course" he quickly says.

"Oh um well" I stutter looking for an excuse  but I'm unable to find one "sure, I'll meet you back at the coffee shop and we can decide from there?" I suggest walking back to the hallway.

"Sure, yeah I'll see you in 20" he happily says before throwing me a 'bye' and hanging up. Taking a deep breath I walk towards the car garage, this should be interesting.

Carla POV

As the taxi comes to a halt outside the tall gates of the women's correctional facility Anika is being held at I can't help but feel uneasy. Leaning up against the car I look towards the gates then back down at my watch.. five more minutes.
