Redemption: Chapter 5

~A Few Days Later~
~Trey P.O.V.~

By this point in time, everyone in town knew about Breezy locked up and for what charge. To think these streets of Oakland couldn't ever be quiet was wrong. With "the killer" ,Big Red, on the loose, everyone just stays inside which is terrible for us.

This only makes us stand out even more amongst the community which the opposite of what I especially wanted. I needed to be able to blend in with everyone so I could catch just one slip up on Big Red's end and that's all I need. I've chose to not tell Dad most of what's been going on. I want to handle shit on my own with Ty, August, DeShawn, and Breezy. If we're all gonna be running these gangs soon, we needa learn how this all works.

Luckily for me, I was with DeShawn and we were at the park, yup the same one where I got jumped and cuffed. Why? Ivanna likes duckies and I know she wanted to show Rio the duckies. I couldn't say no to her so now we're here.

"The wedding's goin' to be after Breezy gets out right?" I asked as I fiddled with my phone, by fiddled I mean spinning it around on the picnic table. What sucked the most about being out in public, was the constant feeling of looking over my shoulder. Watching out for FBI, BGM's, or Big Red. Especially since we have the little ones here.

"Yup. Breezy has to be there, he's another brother." He said with a smile. "Crazy at everything that's gone down. I never imagined it would get like this." No one did.

"I'm telling you and they were going after Mom originally. They was pulling that old signature harm the loved ones. However they got Leah instead of Mom, thinking Leah was who Dad was with."

"How you know?"

"August. When he disappeared for that time being, he was legit taken by BGM's. Long story short, WTE was there and they got some answers like that. Why Leah was killed, well now we know." Instead of trying to find Big Red, because we won't, we're gonna lure him. Who do we lure him with? His wife.

"Any other answers?" I shook my head. "So what's the plan now?" He asked quietly. Smart move my nigga.

"His wife. 'Nuff said. I wanna talk to Elia myself by I 'ont know her very well and Yvonne's been M.I.A." I haven't seen her at Romeo's these past few days, which makes me a little worried. She's a huge link and now she's gone.

"Anybody else know Elia?"

"Uncle Varo but I don't wanna get then all too involved. I wanna get this shit done myself." Dad and the Uncles were doing things like this when they were like 12. They had no problems with it, I'm 18 almost 19 and they still don't let me handle shit on my own, that's why I'm doing a lot of things in secrecy.

"You needa tell them-"

"No. I don't want and I don't have to, so I won't." He just shook his head in disbelieve but gave me the 'aight Trey. You do whatever, not like you don't already' look. I get that look a lot, especially from Brie.

"What'll happen if something happens to you but we don't know where you are because you ain't tell us shit of what you're doin'? Then what? It'll be like when you were stabbed. We had no idea where you were, what you were doing, or anything."

"Just let it go. Breezy and I got this, I mean look, Breezy almost had him just the other day. Big Red is running around here like a chicken with it's head cut off and doing bold ass shit." I heard a scream coming from the little ones and I quickly got up and jogged down to where they were.

"Tre-eey." Ivanna cried as she came walking to me. I picked her up and just held her.

"Did you fall?" She nodded. "It's okay." Her cries filling my ears, Rio followed right behind me back up to the picnic table. Climbing up into DeShawn's lap, leaning back against him.
