Third person POV-flashback 16 years ago Miami
      Karla was up in a a roof singing. She was sitting between to walls. She was wearing really saggy clothes her sweater was bigger than her. She always wore her hoodie up to cover her face, due to the fact she hated people seeing her with glasses. Up in the roof she would have her cassette player and headphones in so she could compose her beloved songs. Every few seconds she would sing a few lyrics she came up with and pause to come up with more. After that she began to jot down the lyrics into her journal.
Karla's POV-still flashback 16 years ago
As I was writing lyrics in my journal I heard my father's voice say "Karla where are you?"
And my mother replied "leave her alone she is doing homework up in the roof probably."
       I heard my fathers voice say to someone "Get out of here right now!
       And that despicable voice said "I only receive orders Alejandro, if you guys don't want to listen I can just tell the bosses that you don't want to pay up your monthly fee. It's for your protection, this street has a lot of insecurities you know.
      My fathers voice said "well you can tell your bosses I'm done the with abuse you give us. And tell your boss we won't give him a penny.
      He replied back " Alejandro, are you really trying to stand up to us?
       Then my mother spoke up "He told you to leave us alone.
       As I was in the other room watching everything unfold I saw him try to hit my mother as I saw him do this I launched forward towards him telling him "to stop. And never lay a finger on her ever again."
       I heard my mother call my name. And that hated man said "Alejandro that daughter of yours
should be teach some discipline and maybe give her some spanks. So she could learn how to respect a real man."
       At this I commend back saying " A real man is someone who respects woman and that you don't do. So get the hell out of here now."
      He pointed at my dad and said "You fucked up big time Alejandro."
      All my dad said was "Fine."
As the man left I ask my dad what was going on but all he replied was nothing. But my mom said "Get out of here and go do some homework instead hon."

Zayn's POV 16years algo-Miami
     I sat inside my car with my bestfriend Lauren, I was giving her an idea on a beat I had for the end of one of my songs. As she was done listening the beat I was jamming to Dominic ( the guy that was at Karla's parents place) one of my uncle manny's people came up to my car and told me and Lauren we had to help them and be the lookout for one of the missions they had. Whenever we collaborated with them we were always the lookout in case anything went wrong. This time we're going to be the lookout in case the man that they were going to steal the merchandise from was coming to the place. As Dominic left I told Lauren "that guy has me sick and tired, he thinks he is my uncle's second hand."
   Lauren replied "you know what this whole situation has me tired. I don't like doing anything involved with your uncles deals. Theses things aren't supposed to be for us, we are musicians dude.Theses things are dangerous one day we are going to get in a huge problem and people are getting hurt."
     I told her "no ones hurting them, they are hurting my uncle."
      She said " it's always the same story don't be stupid dude."
      I said "you do realize we need the money, and what are you going to feed your siblings this week?" Lauren just gave me a I know stare and and sighed towards the sky frustrated about her life.
