~Jayceon POV

"Can I talk to you outside." I said to Kierra. We had finished up our meeting. "Something wrong?" She asked. "You didn't tell me you was in the this type of business." I said. "Neither did you but I'm not complaining." She said laughing. "Plus, you thought I was affording that house off a babysitting check?"

"Yeah you right." I said laughing a little. "But you don't really see females doing this type of stuff. And you don't look like the type to do something like this."

"Looks can be deceiving." She shrugged. Not gone lie, this shit kind of made me like her more. "So what exactly do you do?" I asked. "I'm a hitman." She said. "Damn. Alright badass." I said making her laugh. "So you're a hitman and a babysitter?"

"It's not the best combo. But I love kids and it makes me happy. They're my weakness." She said. "The more you know." I said laughing a little. "So what? This changes how you look at me or something?"

"Hell nah. Just not everyday you see a female with that profession."

~Ashanti POV

"DeShaun baby please wake up!" I said shaking his body. I pulled out my phone calling for help. "911 what is your emergency."

"Please send an ambulance to 730 Harbor Drive. My boyfriend overdosed."

"Okay ma'am the EMT is on its way."

"How far are you guys?"

"They'll be there in a few minutes. Is your boyfriend breathing?" She asked.

"No he's not."

"Turn him on his side, the EMT is almost there."

I could hear the sirens in the distance.

I was in the waiting room pacing back and forth waiting for the doctor. I walked up to the front desk. "Is there any word on DeShaun Richardson?" I asked. "Ma'am this is your fifth time coming up here in the last two minutes. I'll let you know when I hear something." She said.

"Excuse me miss." I turned around seeing DeShaun's doctor. "Please tell me he's okay." I said walking up to him. "He's fine. He consumed a large amount of Oxycodone with Alcohol which caused the overdose. Do you live with Mr. Richardson?" He asked. "No why?"

"His blood pressure was extremely high and it may be due to previous events and stress. He's also very sleep deprived. Sometimes people lead to overdose if they are struggling emotionally or mentally. Have you seen any signs of depression in Mr. Richardson?" He asked.

"No but I mean I guess I wasn't really looking for anything like that." I said getting worried a little. "Okay miss. Well you can see him now." He said. I followed him to DeShaun's room and walked in. I walked in seeing him staring at the ceiling. "Hey." I said sitting on the corner of his bed.

"DeShaun are you okay? Like mentally?" I asked. "I'm fine." He simply said. "You swallowed an entire bottle of Oxycodone. I'm glad I came when I did." I said. "Surprised you even decided to stop by. You know since I was practically sexually harassing your best friend so she could have a place to stay."

"DeShaun I'm so sorry for believing her bullshit. I should've known you weren't that type of person." I said. "Well clearly you didn't. Why the fuck would I even do some goofy ass shit like that." He scoffed. "I know. But she's gone, I kicked her out. Aaliyah came by and talked some sense into her." I said. There was silence.

"DeShaun were you trying to kill yourself?" I asked. "I was just stressed alright. I don't want to talk about it no more." He said. "Okay."

"And can you please keep this between us. I don't want anybody else finding out about this."

"Why not?" I asked raising a brow. "So people can think I'm fucking crazy, I'm good off that. Just promise me you won't talk about this."

"Fine." I sighed. "As long as you promise to never do anything like this again."

"You keep your promise and I'll keep mine."

~Morgan POV

I was scrolling through my phone looking for a job. Jayceon told me he wasn't giving me anymore money and this five hundred thousand wasn't going to last me the rest of my life. I seen a job for a position at a hair salon. I clicked on it to look into the details. I was interrupted by my doorbell ringing. I walked up opening the door.

"May I help you?" I said seeing a girl. "Are you Morgan?" She asked. "Um yes. Who are you?" I was confused on who she was, nobody knows my address right now.

"I'm Asia. You knew my brother." She said making me raise a brow. "Who's your brother?"

"Josiah."

~Landon POV

I was laying on the couch smoking a blunt. "Hey baby." Iyanna said walking in. I didn't say anything. "I said, Hey baby." She repeated herself. "I heard you the first time." I said blowing the smoke from my blunt."We doing the silent treatment?" She asked. I said nothing. "Are you seriously going to act this childish right now?" She scoffed. "What was childish is you letting that fuck nigga in my goddamn house." I said sitting up looking her. "Landon this is my house too."

"Alright well let me go find shawty I fucked in Vegas and bring her to the crib. You down with that?" I asked sarcastically. "Landon you act like we were doing something." She said rolling her eyes. "I don't know what the fuck y'all were doing while I was gone. Maybe y'all been fucking and that baby not even mine." I said.

"You are not about to speak on my like I'm some hoe. I did absolutely nothing with that man. I simply tried to help him and give him a place to lay his head at night. What the hell is so wrong with that?"

"Do you not fucking hear yourself right now. You sound fucking stupid. This aint not fucking homeless shelter." I scoffed. "The first time you got caught you said you cheated because I wasn't there for you. Ever since then I been by your side through everything. I was there for you when we lost our daughter. I was there for you all them nights you cried yourself to sleep. I missed out on important jobs to sit here and be with yo ass. AND YOU DO THIS SHIT!" I yelled.

"Landon I'm sorry." She said. "And you really wanted to question my fucking loyalty to you." I said shaking my head. My phone starting ringing. It was an unknown caller.

"Hello." I said answering.

"This is a collect call from the Women's Detention Center. To accept the call please press 9." I pressed nine.

"Landon?" A female voice said on the other end.

"Who's this?"

"It's Rebecca."
