Lanae
Jordan's apartment

"Mamas what's wrong?". Jordan asked me as I walked in the door. I couldn't hold it, I just broke down into his arms. I was literally sobbing.

"Talk to me babygirl, what's up?".

"Chrissy is gone". I said in between tears. Jordan grabbed my face so I could look directly at him. I knew I had to get myself together so I could explain everything to him.

"Baby what do you mean?"

"Chrissy parents were killed by the mafia and in order to live Chrissy agreed to becoming the boss's personal servant for a year, she just left, you can't tell anybody Jordan. Promise me"

"I promise, you got my word... what about the baby?"

"I don't know, I don't know anything but what I just told you.... but right now I feel like I'm about to throw up". I rushed to the bathroom before I threw up all over this mans apartment. I kneeled over the toilet and preceded to empty my insides.

"You Ite?" Jordan asked after kneeling beside me and rubbing my back.

"I starting not to feel good". I said before puking again.

"You're probably over whelmed with the shit with Chrissy, and plus you just got off work. You just need a shower and to lay down. You finished?". I waited before I nodded my head.

"Come here". Jordan helped me up off the floor and took my clothes off for me, wrapped me in a towel, while he ran a bath. He put some oils and bubble soap in there. Once I stepped, I immediately felt like I was in heaven. The water was the perfect temperature. Once I made myself comfortable, I looked at Jordan who was sitting on the edge of the tub.

"You don't wanna join?"

"Naw that's all you baby" . I was really spoiled but I'm not gone complain about it though. I laid my head back while Jordan rolled a blunt. We started talking about how our day went and etc etc. Until there was a banging on the front door.

"Wha da fuck?" Jordan said as he got up to see who it was leaving me in the bathroom. With a few seconds, he came back and pulled up the bathroom floor board to stash his drugs, and a couple of guns.

"Mama look, 12 is at the door"

"What the fuck, fr?"

"Where's ya gun?"

"In my purse, it's registered I'm not worried" . I hopped out the tub wrapping a towel around me and followed Jordan to the door. He hesitated before opening the door.

"Jordan Moss?"

"Yeah?"

"There's a warrant out for your arrest for the kidnapping and murder of Marcellus Callahan. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say or do can and will be held against you in the court of law. You have the right to an attorney and one can be appointed to you" . Tears were running down my face as I watched them put Jordan in cuffs. I was scared as shit but I knew that I was gone get my baby out one way or another.

"Babygirl, listen to me... call Quan and Benny ite ?"

"Nae, are you hearing me ma?"

"Mamas, ima be alright" ... I could hear his words but it'slike they werent responding with my brain. The officers were now taking him out the apartment and then everything went black.

Jordan

I'm sitting in the interrogation room because they trying to say I had something to do with Marco. Even though I did, they didn't have to evidence to prove it. I wasn't no dummy and my clean up crew was way better than that to fuck up. After they spent about a hour and half trying to crack me out of a confession, they finally gave up. The only thing they could get out of me is 'I want my lawyer'. I was ready to get up out of here because I needed to get to Nae. When they were walking me out in handcuffs, I don't know what happened but I remember hearing one of the offices calling for a medic. Suddenly, I could hear my lawyer demanding to see her client. I had one of the best lawyers in the city, so I knew I was about to get up out of here.

"I thought we was staying out of trouble?". She spoke when she walked into the room.

"I didn't do shit"

"It's seems like you're telling the truth, they don't have any solid evidence against you beside the fact that you and Marcellus had confrontations in the past ... the murder weapon doesn't have your prints on it nor is it registered in your name ... also I'm going to file a complaint for them badgering you without your lawyer present even though you requested... they only picked you up because you were an easy target"

"Bet, when can I get up outta hea?"

"In a rush to get to the girl who the ambulance picked up from the your place?"

"Where is she?"

"Hospital, who is she?"

"Stacy, I'm not doing this with you ite? We're done." Stacy closed her notebook, and stood from the table while motioning the guard to let her out. After about five more minutes went by and I was finally released. Once I got my belongings, Benny was outside waiting on me.

"Take me to the crib to get my car, "

"Gotchu boss"

The Hospital

"Can you tell me what room Lanae Givens is in?"

"Are you family?"

"Yes ma'am, boyfriend"

"Here's a visitors pass and the room number is on the bottom, go to the door so I can buzz you in". I followed directions as she told me and made my way to my baby. Once I got in the room, she was curled up in the bed with her back towards the door so she didn't know I had come in. I slowly eased my way to her and gently placed my head on her back.

"Hey mamas." She quickly turned around and grabbed me pulling me into a hug.

"Jordan... omg are you okay? What happened?"

"I'm fine babygirl, they just wanted to mess with me... they ain't got no evidence to charge me so I'm good... don't worry about me ... what happened? You okay? ". She pulled away from me and slid over on the bed motioning for me to lay with her. I laid down beside her and wrapped my arms around her.

"Well I fainted when they carried you out, doctor said it was because I've just been emotional stress a lot lately. Which is very much true but I'm okay now. They just have me under observation because my blood pressure was extremely high when I came in"

"I told you baby, I'm glad your okay though and I'm very sorry you had to see that"

"No no, it's okay... but there's something else I need to tell you"

"What is it ma?"

"I'm pregnant Jordan". I was silent for a minute because I was trying to take in what she was telling me.

"I have a little me in there?" I said smiling looked down at her stomach.

"You're going to be a daddy baby"

"I gotchu mama, I promise... we're going to figure this out together". I gave Nae a passionate kiss and I just laid beside her until her blood pressure dropped and she was discharged. She was placed on bed rest and blood pressure medicine to regulate her blood pressure for the next few days. She was given an appointment for an OBGYN in the next week to see if she needed to stay on her medication or not. After we got home, we took a shower together and laid in the bed for majority of the night talking about our future.

Sorry for the mistakes 😬
