Ken's POV

"Ken. Ken!

"Huh, what's up D?"

"Nigga you better pay attention, this a big drop I got you making. You get the coke from Carlos and give him the money and you get out. No casualties this time! Got it?"

"Maan Deon you need to chill out bro this ain't nothing new for me. How many drops I been on? As long as he don't try and play me for a b*tch there won't be no problems, I said.
"Aight but this time you got Ricky coming with you and I want him to see how business is handled. And you know he can't keep his mouth shut for nothing so you gon have to watch him, said Deon"

"How come he coming anyway, you know dad gonna be mad if he finds out we let his precious Ricky come along for a drop. You know he supposed to be the future college boy, I said"

"Yeah but Ricky too soft he needs to start making some real cash, and your going to teach him how, said D"

I laughed and said, "D he's only 14 he'll make plenty of money when he's older"

"Ken I don't care he's coming and yall need to get ready."

"Aight get out my office and send him in then." Deon turns to leave and the Ricky takes his place coming in my office. I don't pay him any attention I just turn and look down onto the empty dance floor through my two way glass.

I own a club as does Deon, it's all apart of the cover as to how we have so much money and can afford what we can. It also serves as a convenient customer base to sell our product to. While my club, named Lux, has the bar and dance floor, Deon owns a strip club called Rain.

Facing Ricky I say, "you ready for this drop kid? Without giving him time to reply I say, "Good, let's go then" Ricky and I hop in my car and head to Carlos's place. "Look man this should take less than five minutes, all you got to do is keep your mouth shut and we'll be in and out"

"Ken man I know what to do I'm not a kid anymore.", he says

I just smirk at him as I get out the car grabbing the 70lb duffle bag full of coke. We head inside and I just have a feeling something is off. I knock on the door to Carlos office and he lets us in.

"If it isn't Kenneth Scott and the 'lil Scott", he says referring to Ricky.

I ignore his greeting trying to get to the business, I toss Carlos the money. "What you got for me?"

"Aww all business I see", says Carlos, "I got your stuff don't worry."
He hands me a duffle bag with my money and I turn to walk away. At this moment Ricky chooses to open his mouth.

"Ken where you going, we haven't even checked the drugs yet! He could be trying to play us. You said he was a greedy and would screw anyone over just get what he wanted. So why aren't we checking this product?", Ricky unsuccessfully whispers.

Carlos looks up and says, "So that's how you Scott's feel about me, well now I don't feel bad about having to prove how ruthless I can be. Carlos whistles and a guy rushes in and shoots Ricky in the back. At this moment I pull out my glock and bury two shots in this guy's head, I turn do the same to Carlos.

Shit this was not supposed to happen. I never enjoy killing someone. I've done it once before when Deon got us in some trouble and it shook me up for weeks. But this time I won't be feeling that guilt. Not since they hurt Ricky.

I hear a gasp, I look down to see Ricky gasping for breath and blood staining his shirt. I say, "Don't worry Rick I'm gonna get you some help." I call and ambulance for Ricky and I call the crew, "Hey Deon some sh*t went down I need you to call the clean up crew and you to come get this coke and money off the scene."

I hear him say "dammit ken" before I hang up.

I look down at Rick and he had passed out, I hear the ambulance come so I carry him downstairs. They rush in asking me all kinds of questions about what happened.

They shouldn't even be trying to asks me questions. "Shut the f*ck up and take care of my brother."

They load him into the ambulance and drive off. I run back inside to get the drugs and money and then I hear D and the boys coming in.

He says, "Alright niggas make it quick with the bodies, because the cops should be here in 5 minutes about the gun shots."

I tell Deon, "C'mon let's head to the hospital to see about Rick" Me and Deon hop in my car and speed to the hospital. We get there and we run rush through the lobby heading towards the front desk.

Out of the corner of my eye I see this fine ass curly haired girl eyeing me, when she sees I caught her looking at me she quickly looks away. I focus my attention back on finding out what's happening to Ricky.

Average's POV
"Cancer!"

"Yes Miss. Jones I'm sorry to inform you that you have Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Fortunately we caught it early and with the proper care you'll be back to a normal health life within a year; ... hopefully."

"No no Dr. Patrice you don't understand, there must be some mistake I was feeling fine until yesterday."

"Average, I understand how difficult this must be, but passing out in the middle of the day is not 'fine'. Not to mention all rashes you have on you, you've probably been having these symptoms for who knows how long and finally decided to come and see me"

I sigh and look over at my mom, who had been crying silently in the corner of Dr. Patrice's office this entire time. "Mom it'll be all right she said we're fortunate to have caught it this early."

"Fortunate! Baby this is all my fault you have been telling me how you have been feeling tired and weak lately. And what have I done nothing, and now your sick, because of my neglect.

Tearfully I look at my mom and say, How could you think this is your fault; it just happened, I say sadly."

"I see this will take some time to process why don't we schedule an appointment a week from now to discuss our plan of treatment, Okay? says Dr. Patrice."

"Sure." My mom agrees, "C'mon Average lets go."

As we walk out of Dr. Patrice's office and through the lobby I see the finest guy rush through with his friends. He had to be at least 6,3 with perfect chocolate skin and a head full of curls. He catches me staring, so I turn quickly to walk catch up with my distraught mother.

First Chapter finished of my first story ever!!! Hope you liked it, feel free to give constructive criticism. 😘👋

Just edited this Chap since this is the one chap I wrote more than a year ago. I made it a little bit more realistic and toned down Ken's character since I had him doing more violence. And some stuff I just forgot what I wrote and needed to fix it. Also the pic up top is Average.7/17/16
