"Aye, shorty lemme get them digits!" I hear as I walked inside the store past some boys. I kept it moving. "Let that go Tino, that's Jacs niece." He says grabbing him. "What that mean?" He asks confused.

Everybody round him started laughing. "Shorty dangerous." He says shaking his head. I heard the boy chuckle. "Shit, I like em feisty." He says. "Nah, I'm not talking bout that type of dangerous." He says. "Shorty a killer, she got more bodies then candy man my nigga." He says.

"She don't look like a killer to me." He says. "Looks can be deceiving." I tell him with a smirk.

"I see." He says pulling out his phone. "So can I get your number?" He asks again. "I don't like little boys, I would fuck up your life keep it pushing baby this not what you want." I tell him picking up some chips and a blue lemonade tropical juice and walked up to the counter. "Now you know I'm not gonna charge you." Ms. Sanchez tells me with her face twisted up. "Come on Mami." I say lowly. She shakes her head and points towards the door.

I dig into my pocket and get out a bundle of money and sit it down on the counter and begin walking off. "Chica if you don't come get this damn money!" She yells.

"No mami, you deserve it." I tell her one last time before walking out of the store. I make my way over to my car and get inside. "What took you so long, it's hot." Paisley says as she hung her head out of the window. I wave her off rolling my eyes. "Man, I don't wanna hear that." I tell her. "Well your gonna, my man is at home waiting to give me all his good loving and you taking your precious time." She says smacking on her gum loudly.

"Girl fuck Chauncey, he can wait." I tell her as I get inside of the car and drive out of the gas station parking lot. "I'm only gonna let you get away with that be your a certified killer and I don't want no smoke." She tells me leaning back in her seat.

I just chuckled and kept my eyes on the road. "My dad said he needs you to come by today said y'all have some business to handle." She tells me as she looks over at me. "What type of business?" I ask her confused.

"You know he doesn't tell me those type of things you will have to just go me see for yourself." She tells me.

I just nodded my head. Probably wants me to off somebody he's too pussy to off hisself. "When are you gonna retire from this bullshit?" Paisley asks me.

"Never." I tell her. She just scoffed. "This shit is gonna be the death of you." She says leaving it at that.

"Then I guess it will be a happy death, I'm doing what I love." I say lowly.

"Yeah whatever, Selena I'm just gonna act like I didn't hear you spit me that bullshit." She says looking out the window.

We were now in her neighborhood. The suburbs where all the rich people lived. People who didn't have to work hard for shit because everything they wanted and needed was handed to them. So it was up to people like me to remind them to not take anything for granted.

"Selena, do you hear me?" She asks loudly as I pulled into her driveway. "No, I did not but it's probably some bullshit about what I choose to do with my life so save it." I tell her.

Then the front door opened and out walked Chauncey and some dude with long hair.

"See he always got that nigga in my house, we can't even fuck cause his ass always here." She says angrily getting out of the car.

"Well, have fun." I tell her backing out of her yard and off to my next destination.

I was on my way downtown where Paisley daddy lived. Old nigga always wanted me to do something. Which I didn't mind as long as the money was good but my uncle Jacs told me to be careful when dealing with him because he was a little shady.

Couple minutes later I was pulling into the driveway of his condo. Parking the car I got out and made my way up the long ass stairs. I knocked on the door and waited for him to unlock it. Couple minutes later he opened the door and invited me in. Once inside I looked around and spotted the boy I saw at the store earlier. "Wassup, ma we meet again?" He says with a smile I just look away an scoff. "What is it that you need?" I ask him.

"I need you to handle somebody who is playing with my money, I don't like to be played with you know." He says angrily. "Then why not handle it yourself?" I ask him. He raised a brow. "Is there something else better you have to do?" He asks me.

"In fact it is, you don't pay me enough to off motherfuckers for you in fact they don't even be that much of a hassle I'm sure your ass could handle it you just don't wanna get your hands dirty." I say.

By now he looked angry but he knew better than to try anything he wasn't stupid he knew what I was capable of. "Whatever, do the job or don't it's up to you." He says. "I know it is, that's why I'm not find somebody else." I tell him walking off to the door.

But I was stopped by his sudden words. "What if I told you I knew who killed your father." He says smoothly.

"Antonio, stop fucking around with me." I say proceeding to open the door.

"I'm not, I have documents and everything." He says causing me to face him. "Why say something now, all these years now you say something why?" I ask him getting irritated.

"I was waiting on the right time, you know?" He asks me.

"Ain't no damn right time to tell somebody information about their fathers killer, you know that's bullshit you trying to use this as bait and I'm not falling for it go fuck yourself." I say.

I open the door and close it behind me. I then make my way down the long ass stairs. I unlocked my car and get inside. Can't believe that nigga just threw that in my face like it was cool.

Could of took his life right then and there but I knew Paisley would never forgive me if I did.

My phone then started ringing causing me to retrieve it from my pocket. "Speak." I say lowly as I answered the call.

"Listen little girl, you gone stop greeting me like that when you answer my calls fuck wrong with you?" My uncle Jacs says on the other end.

"Shit, my bad unc I ain't even know that was you." I tell him. He just chuckled. "Anyway, I got some entail on them niggas downtown that work for Antonio." He says.

"Alright, here I come now." I tell him before hanging up the phone.

"So you mean to tell me he had them niggas kill my daddy?" I ask confused.

"Didn't even think the bitch was capable of that." I say lowly.

"Yeah, but I'm gone handle that." He tells me. "I know that you and his daughter are friends and that would just complicate things so I want you to set this one out." He tells me sternly.

"Alright, just to let you know when you called me I was leaving his house he told me he needed me to off somebody and on top that tried to bride me and said he had info on my daddy when he had something to do with it." I tell him shaking my head.

"That nigga really is shady." I say. "Told you, but hey don't worry I'm gone handle that go home and get some rest." He tell me.

I nod my head and get up from my seat and make my way to the door. "Be careful, you are America's most wanted." He tells me with a chuckle.

"Fasho, you know I keep it on me." I tell him flashing my piece.

"Mami, I told you I'm good you don't gotta worry bout me." I say lowly as she caressed my face.

"Señorita, you have gotta let this go someday, I can't lose you to the streets like I lost you father I refuse." She tells me lowly. I could tell she was about to cry so I wrapped my arms around her to console her.

I was use to her and everybody else telling me that eventually this would all catch up to me but I refused to just give it all up. Especially when this is all my daddy asked of me.

"Chica, I know this is what your papi wanted but you have to put you and your well being first." She says.

I knew she was right but I wasn't ready to give it all up yet. I just nodded my head and held her. Once she had stopped sobbing I had kissed her cheek and made my way to my room up the stairs.

I had my own house but she wanted me to stay here her for the night. Which I didn't mind I hardly got a chance to spend time with her because of my busy schedule.

Once up the stairs I'm greeted by tiny feet running into my direction. "Mommy!" He yells excitedly.

I scoop him into my arms and kiss his cheeks. "Hello, my baby." I say lowly as his cheeks turn red.

I walk into my bedroom and shut the door behind me. "Wanna watch a movie with mommy?" I ask as him as I sit him on his feet.

He shrieks. "Yes, can we watch home alone please?" He asks. I nod my head and pick up the remote and type it in. He runs over to the bed and struggles to climb it. I chuckle and help him up the huge bed.

"So you telling me, my dad is the one who had your dad killed?" Paisley asks me dumbfounded. "Yes, and something tells me you knew." I say shaking my head.

"I did, but I couldn't betray my father and tell you that information." She tells me. "Yah, whatever." I tell her. "Just don't be surprised when he ends up dead." I tell her shrugging carelessly.

Her eyes went wide. "You wouldn't ." She says. "A father for a father right?" I ask with a chuckle.

"It's just that your father got a chance to watch you grow, but mines?" I ask lowly. "He didn't, he was taken right from under my nose because of jealously." I tell her.

"But don't worry, it won't be me who does the good deed." I tell her with a smirk.

"You think too highly of your dad when he has been deceiving you too." I tell her. "What do you think happened to your mother?" I ask her.

"He said you did that." She says looking up at me. "Now why would I kill your mother sweetie?" I ask her.

"Because...I don't know that's what he told me." She says.

"Well your father would tell you anything to save his own ass." I tell her getting up from the table.

"Just watch yourself, your father can't be trusted he has kept so many secrets from you and has told you so many lies and you believed them." I tell her shaking my head.

"They will soon be unleashed." I say as I open the door.

I looked back at her and smiled. "You have no clue about all the damage your father has done, but don't worry I won't tell I will leave that up to him." I say before leaving out of her house.

Shots then ranged out inside of her house. "Hate I had to kill my own friend, but it's the way things had to be." I say as I stopped my movement and looked back towards the house.

Something tells me she was gonna go and run her mouth and I couldn't have that.
