Narrator- "Brandon is texting Jada about meeting up with her.
Brandon- "Will you come to the bowling alley with me? You can bring your friends if you don't want to come alone."
Jada- "Sure that sounds okay."
Narrator- Brandon and Jada meet up at the bowling alley. Jada brings along one of her friends to come.
*Brandon's thoughts*
She came in the bowling alley looking so good. She's off top one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen. Part of me feels a bit bad about coming here with her because Princess would be upset. I didn't come here to get with Jada but only to gain information.
Jada- "Hey Brandon, this is my friend Allie and Allie this is Brandon."
Allie- *waves and smiles at Brandon* "Hi"
Brandon- "Hey, i hope y'all are ready to lose.
Jada- *looks confused* "Were is your friend?"
Brandon- "What friend?"
Jada- "I thought you were bringing a friend."
Brandon- "My friends are too busy and don't have time for me that's why i been tryna hang out with y'all."
Jada- "Oh so I'm the friend you hang out with when all of your other friends not around?"
Brandon- "It doesn't have to be like that though."
Jada-*cheeses* "Sure."
Narrator- "Allie, Brandon, and Jada all start bowling until the food is ready and they all sit down at the table.
Brandon- "Jada your hair is so long you must got Indian in your family?"
Allie- "I told her that." *laughs*
Jada- "No, my dad is Peurto Rican."
Brandon-*smiles* "Oh really? Are you the only child?"
Jada- "No i have a little brother and other siblings that i don't really know on my dad's side."
Brandon- *smiles hard* "Oh wow, you know how many you haven't met?"
Jada-*looks at Brandon sideways* "I don't know i haven't met them. What about you?"
Brandon- "I just have one sister and you already met her."
Allie- "Well y'all didn't ask me but i have an older brother and sister."
Jada- "Brandon what sports do you play?"
Brandon- "I play basketball."
Jada- "You need to invite us to one of your games."
Brandon- "For show."
Allie- *smirks* "Y'all would look so cute together."
Brandon- *smiles* "She has a boyfriend."
Jada- "He has a girlfriend."
Allie- "I'm just saying that you guys look like y'all have some chemistry."
Brandon- *looks at Jada and smiles* "Do we have chemistry?"
Jada- *looks nervous* "Don't listen to her. Anyways it's getting late and i do have a curfew. Brandon, we'll see you later."
Allie- "Jada you can at least give him a hug."
Jada-*looks nervous and just smiles at Brandon and leaves*
*Brandon's thoughts*
I wasn't trying to date Jada because there's a good chance that she is Jaden's sister. Then i also have a girlfriend. I just think she's very beautiful and i like her personality. I didn't think Allie would just put us on the spot like that. Jaden's dad is also Puerto rican so there's a good chance she could be his sister. I still don't want to tell Jaden until i know for sure.
Narrator- Jaden is at Palo's trap house outside on the porch on the phone with Shanae. A suspicious white crown vic pulls up with dark tints. The window rolls down and A gun is being pulled out. Jaden drops the phone and runs into the house. Shots begins to ring out hitting the trailer. Jaden hits the floor and starts crawling to the back room. Palo and his boys hear the noise and pulls out their guns trying to shoot back at the car. The car pulls off as soon as Palo and his boys make it outside.
Jaden- *panicking and breathing heavily on the floor* "What the fuck?!"
Palo- *runs back into the house to see if Jaden is ok* "Bro did you get hit? You good bro? Let me see!"
Jaden- "I didn't get shot."*starts to relax a little*
Palo- "Man what the fuck? I'm gone kill that bitch ass nigga. Hoe ass nigga think shit sweet. I'm gone put a price on his fucking head."
Jaden- "It was Hurk boys."
Palo- "I already know who it is. Lil bro you need to keep your heat on you because shit is about to get real."
*Jaden's thoughts*
I didn't know that it was going to go this far. All i wanted to do is make money to take care of my baby. I didn't expect to be shot at and for people to be envious of me. It really struck a nerve in me that Devon would go against me. Realizing that today could have been my last day has me feeling some type of way. I can't let these motherfuckers kill me, i have a baby to take care of. I never want to take a life but I'd rather see the enemy family cry instead of mine. I go back outside to get my phone but as soon as i can grab it Shanae pulls up.
Shanae- *runs to Jaden* "Oh my God! Are you ok? I thought you were hurt! Jaden you need to go home."
Jaden- "Shanae get back into the car and go home!"
Shanae- "Jaden, I'm not about to let you get hurt. What the hell happened?!"
Jaden- "I'll explain to you later just go home. It's not safe for you to be here right now. If something happens to you i wouldn't know how to carry on with my life. Go home, i got me!"
Shanae- *starts crying* "Bae come home with me."
Jaden- *pulls Shanae to the driver side and kisses her* "Go home and I'll call you later on."
Shanae-*gets into the car and leaves*
Jaden- "So what's the plan? We riding on them or what?"
Palo- "Sit your young ass down man. You don't need to get yourself in this shit. Im gone handle this. In the meantime just keep your strap on you."
Jaden- "I don't care about being young. He sending folks to get me killed so why not ride on him?"
Palo- *laughs* "Welcome to the street life."
