Rashid POV
I called Toya at least ten times already. I don't know what the fuck is wrong with her but she's pissing me off. I went to go check on her extra bitchy ass. I have a fuckin headache and I really don't wanna fuss with this girl right now. I was in a rush so we can get back to the streets so I ain't really been in my right mind. I banged on Toya's door, trying to respect her privacy. "I swear she gettin on my damn nerves," I mumbled pulling out my key. I walked inside and it was quiet as hell. "Toya?!"
I went inside her room but she wasn't here. The fuck? Where the hell is she? On the bed was her phone laying on top of a stack of papers.I picked them up. They looked like letters. The very first one was addressed to me.
Dear Rashid,
I just wanna say thank you so much for everything you've done for me. You're truly the best thing that's ever happened to me. I'm sorry we never got to be together before. I love you so much. If you're reading this, I'm gone and you won't ever see me again. The only way that I could get Britt and them back is by giving this psycho what he wanted. He wasn't going to stop until he got what he wanted. I can't live with anymore people getting hurt because of me. Keep everyone safe.
Forever yours,
Toya
I read this letter another three times before punching the nearest wall. "Fuck! Why can't she fuckin listen?" I ran out to my car ready to call everybody. We have to get her before some shit happens. I just got Toya and I'm not losing her. My phone rang before I got a chance to call anybody. It was Xavier. "Aye man we gotta load up-"
"Ra! Britt, Shad and Malik here."
"What?"
"We heard screeching tires and looked outside. They been tied up and sitting outside. They not waking up tho. I think they drugged them."
"Fuck! Why the fuck she did that shit man?!" I didn't mean to yell but this shit was gettin to me.
"We takin them to the hospital now. You wanna meet up with us?"
"I'm on my way."
Toya POV
I woke up to a jerking feeling. I completely forgot what happened and freaked out. Someone touched me and I jumped away trying to figure out what happened. This really really cute guy stood there staring at me. Suddenly everything hit me at once. I started crying.
"Come on," he gripped my arm and pulled me off the plane. I was put in the back of a car. The tears wouldn't stop falling. I kept thinking about everyone that I left behind. I hope they read my letters and won't hate me for what I've done. "Let's go." We pulled up to this huge mansion. I just now noticed the tropical aura of the place. Where the hell am I? I was led inside. "Tell boss we're here." The guy stopped one of the many people walking the grounds.
"Where am I?" he still had a grip on my arm like I'd bolt any minute. Nowhere for me to run and I still have no idea where I am.
"Far from home," was all he said before pulling me into the house.
"Ouch!" he loosened his grip but kept pulling me. He pulled me upstairs and to a huge study. A man turned around and smirked at me. My jaw dropped. I know I'm not seeing this. He's not standing here in front of me. He's not the one that turned my life upside down. But it is. I can't believe this. Why didn't I listen to her?
Shad POV
My head was pounding. I opened my eyes slowly and seen almost everyone in my room. Xavier was holding a crying Britt, Malik had his head down in his hands, and Rashid was staring out a window. "Toya?" I looked around for my sister. How'd I get in here again?
"Shad?!" Britt got up and walked over to me. She's been crying a lot. "Oh honey I'm so sorry."
"What's wrong? Where's Toya?" everyone just stared at me. "Are y'all gon answer my question or stand there lookin at me dumb?"
"She's gone," Rashid said.
"Rashid-"
"No!" he snapped at Britt. "I told her to fuckin trust me and she fuckin didn't. It's her own damn fault. She gave herself to the sick fuck that was after her. If she wasn't so damn stubborn and quick she would be here, now."
"Toya's gone?" I thought that was a dream. Or at least I hoped so. My sister really traded herself in for us? My heart started hurting and my throat tightened. Tears burned the back of my eyes. "She's not gone. She promised she'd always be here for me."
"S-She left this for you." Britt's hand shook as she passed me a piece of paper.
Dear Shad,
I know you'll be mad and hate me for this. I made you so many promises that I had every intention of keeping. I was going to stick by you through everything. I was looking forward to legally kicking your ass and get away with it. I was looking forward in running those little hoes away from you. All that has to be cut short. I gave myself up because I couldn't live with the guilt of me having the power to save you and not using it. You're my heart and I'll always love you baby brother. Remember what I told you about people abandoning you? I hope so. I'm so sorry everyone keeps leaving you. I really wanted to be different and not put you through this. Just remember, I'll always be with you. Do something great.
Love always, your big sister, your best friend
Toya
Tears I tried holding back rolled down my face. The last person I had was now gone. I can't believe Toya is now gone."
Malik POV
Hearing that Toya is gone was probably the worst news I've ever gotten. The one person who showed me real love is gone. All I got to remember her by is this letter.
Dear Malik,
I've always thought of you as my little brother. I'll miss you so much. Stay sweet and watch out for Shad. I love you baby boy. Be good. I'll always be here for you no matter what. Stay out of trouble, stay in school, better yourselves. I'm always in your heart and you'll forever be in mine. Again I love you Malik. Be strong baby boy.
Love always,
Toya
DamnI miss her already. Toya does not deserve anything that was throw her way. Tears rolled down my face. The closest person to a mother, a sister, now gone.
Britt POV
I swear I cannot stop crying. Toya has saved me so many times and I couldn't save her this once. She was so much more than a friend. We've had each other's back since middle school. We've always been by each other. How Can I move on without her? I need her just as much as Shad and Malik.
Dear Britt,
Hey hun!! I already miss you so much. We've had each other's backs for so long. The thought of not having you around kills me. I have to do this. I love you guys too much to let you suffer. Please watch my boys for me. Guide them and be there. Be strong hun I love you. I love all of you. I know what I'm doing.
Your best friend, ROD(ride or die)
Toya
