IN TOO DEEP [SEQUEL]

Two

*********

I cruised through the city, getting a feel of my new home town. Peaches had been blowing my phone but I ignored all of her calls, sending ha' to voicemail. I was downtown at tha' strip, parked on the curb, watching people and how they moved.

I got out and walked towards a sub shop as two little boys ran from a woman on the side walk.

"Wow lil man, whea' you going?" I grabbed one of them.

The woman was far behind and was jogging towards them with her hands full. She dropped bags and struggled ta' gather them as I focused my attention back on the kids.

"What y'all running from?" I asked the boy on the side walk with the blue shirt.

"My mama." Blue shirt said.

"What's ya' name." I asked him.

"Koby."

I looked at the boy in my arms and saw that he was the boy in the picture.

"Amir?" I asked him.

He stared at me tryna figure out whea' he knew me from. I slowly put him down as he brushed his clothes off as if he had dirt on his self.

"Whatchu' know my name fa'?" Amir asked.

"I'm a friend of your mama's." I chuckled.

"Oh...whea' you get that watch from?"

"I bought it. You like my watch?"

"Yeh, my mama gon' buy me that kinda watch and some shades cause she rich. She bought me a PlayStation." Amir bragged, poking his chest out proudly.

"A PlayStation? Wow she must be rich then lil man. I'ca play wid' your PlayStation?" I asked.

"Fa' a nickle." He looked at me seriously.

"Aite, I'ca do that." I laughed."Well hea' come yo mama Koby and she don't look too happy." I pointed ta' ha'.

"Man, now we can't go get ice cream." Koby folded his arms.

"Who? I'ca ask my mama fa' some ice cream." Amir bragged.

They both walked off as I turned to go in he opposite direction. They reminded me so much of me and Cash when we was youngin's and I couldn't help but smile at their innocence.

My phone vibrated and I saw that it was a text from Peaches. I let ha' know I was on my way back then headed back ta' my car.

Natasha

"Thank you for letting me stay here. It should take me a couple of weeks to find a place then I should be out." Sky said.

"Stop. You already know how we rock."

"If I asked you to help me do something, would you do it?"

"Of course."

"I want her dead." She mumbled.

"What?" I asked. I wanted to make sure I heard her clearly.

"I want her dead. I have his phone records and she's slowly taking him away from me. Natasha I can't loose him, he's all I have."

"Sky! You can't go-..." I paused lowering my voice. " You just can't go killing people off!"

"He said he loved her! What am I gonna do? She's pregnant."

I stood up, pacing around the living room. I was pissed. Cash looked me directly in my face and lied.

"He said it wasn't that serious!" I panicked.

"I just don't know how much more I can take." She sobbed.

I sat back down beside her then stared at the picture of Rome and Amir that sat on the small glass table nearby.

"Sky, I love you, I do. But I'm done with that life. I have a son now."

She wiped her nose with a kleenex then sat in silence for a few minutes.

"It's just my hormones talking."

"Maybe it is." I nudged her jokingly. " Promise me this is our last conversation about Cash for a few days so you can get some rest and I'll take you shopping? Deal?"

"Bish whet? Deal!" She smiled widely.

"That's my girl." I smiled back.

Again, this is a sequel but it's a whole new book. I know y'all not use to my chapters being this calm/chill but just give me some time to let things fall into place.

Peaches?
