" I'm so sorry." Tears began filling my eyes something that happened whenever I felt myself about to panic or shut down.

" I forgot how much him and Von hate each other, I'll walk you out as soon as they lea—"

" Y'all over there being all secretive and shit, I ain't even see you when I came in." Duck chuckled pulling two guns out the inside of his pants.

" Who yo friend is? You met her at work? She single?" My heart fell flat into my ass the moment he started to walk right behind Lucky with a smirk plastered across his face.

" Don't you have money to count?" I tried changing the subject." Nah." He shook his head turning back around just as his phone started to ring loudly.

" I be back don't go no where I wanna meet yo friend when I come back up front." He pointed at me making me flash a fake smile before standing up after he walked into his room.

" I have to call Von." Lucky said shakily placing her phone against her ear. Just the thought of Von coming to get her made me want to cry only because him and everyone else probably wouldn't want to be around me anymore due to Duck being my brother.

Just by the look on her face I could tell the conversation was intense and that she wanted to say more but at the time she couldn't. Not here with Duck being so close by.

" Can you walk me outside?" Nodding my head I walked closely behind her so if Duck came back out he wouldn't be able to fully see her.

Due to her being a bit shorter than me.

" Say?!" Me and Lucky froze up hearing a click sound go off behind us. Turning around slowly I felt the tears I tried holding in begin to fall the moment I saw him pointing his gun at Lucky.

" Don't hurt her." I shook my head back and forth stepping in front of her.

" Why you got this opp ass bitch in my house Kennedy?!" He questioned angrily now pointing his gun at me.

" I work too much to remember who you hate and who you like Carlton, Lucky's my friend." I tried reasoning with him but all he did was laugh at me.

For years my brother treated me like shit all because of the reputation that he had. And I found that so unfair because as the oldest his goal should have been to protect me at all times. But instead he'd treat me as if I was his enemy.

" Where yo bitch ass boyfriend at?" He looked at Lucky smirking widely knowing he got underneath her skin just by the way she glared at him.

" You must have him mixed up with someone else." She returned the smirk he was giving her which immediately made his facial expression drop.

" He's been trying to get up with you for months, you're the one that's never outside Carlton."

After she said that he fired off a shot towards the roof. Causing me to grab Lucky and run out the front door as more shots began going off.

" SEKANI?!" Von yelled hopping out his car rushing towards her. I stood off to the side while they talked before feeling my stomach drop once Booka came out of the car staring directly at me.

" Booka I—" I opened my mouth to speak but the sound of more shots being released made Lucky pull my arm and push me inside of the car.

" Are you okay?" We asked in unison laughing at each other. After a while silence came over the both of us. Before I broke the ice telling her everything about Duck and how sorry I was for not thinking before inviting her over.

" You almost took a bullet for me Kennedy, Of course I'm not mad at you.. yeah I wish you did think before inviting me over but on the bright said we're both alive and safe." She smiled at me.
