" You Down or what ? "
The words stunned the shit out of me .
I exhaled and thought about this .
Rocko was a problem , but if I lost baby girl I could never forgive myself .
" Come on Dev , I need you . We brothers man . "
I thought long and hard .
Leak sighed . " Look give me until tomorrow night , okay ? "
He nodded . " Okaay . "
He dapped me up and head out the door .
" Think about this Dev , For real don't let me down . "He said walking out .
He left the house and I shut the door .
I can't let him down we blood , but shit Dyamon Wifey !

The Next Day
• Von's POV •
Dev texted me this morning saying he wanted to take me somewhere at noon so I got up and got dressed .
I been down and out since the whole Devin thing brought back so many family memories .
I wonder how my moms doing .
After KP died she blamed me and kicked me out .
People tell me they see her from time to time but I just end the conversation .
I already knew Devin was taking me to see my mother , because well Ramon can't shut his mouth .
I already knew how this was going to go , she hated me and wanted nothing to do with me so this would be quick .
I showered and threw on a outfit .
Red polo shirt , cargos , Tims , gold chain and my Rolex .
Hey , this my moms I got to look a little decent .
I texted the boys to let them know I was on my way to the trap .
~
After leaving the trap me and Dev headed " out " as he called it .
We'd been driving for awhile and to kill time I text my old chick Nicole .
I was so into my phone I didn't realize we were here .
" Von get out . "
I looked up to see big beautiful White House kind of like my own .
I changed my mind , we ain't at my moms we somewhere else .
Or are we ?
Damn if so moms living this good .
~
Me and Dev made our way to the door and knocked .
A familiar face I craved to see again opened the door , my mother .
She flashed her killer smile and wrapped her arms around me .
Ooh now I know something up .
I embraced her back and spoke . " Hey ma , how you doing ? "
She let me go and began to shed tears .
" My baby's home , my baby's home . "
She kissed all over my face .
I laughed . " Maa come on now . "
" Ooh boy stop all that whining it's been years I missed my angel . Come on in . "
I entered the house and she thanked Devin who headed to the car .
" Dev , where you going ? " I asked .
He chuckled . " I'm gonna wait in the car , take your time . "
I nodded and my mom shut the door .
She lead me to the living room and sat down .
" How's my boy been ? "
" Good , living you know . "
She smiled .
" You and KP look more alike by day. " she said smiling holding back her tears .
I cleared my throat .
" Baby I missed you and you look decent . "
I laughed . " Yea , I know how you feel about how a man should look . "
She was now letting the tears fall .
" Man . Oh Lawd , Man Devon . "
I laughed . Moms hated the idea of use growing up .
I looked at the clock on her wall .
-| 5:34|-
She noticed my gaze and sighed .
" Well I know I can't keep you long but I wanted to give you this . "
She handed me and piece of paper with some numbers and a address .
" What's this ? "
" It's where I buried KP . "
The room went silent .
I looked into my mothers eyes and seen more hurt than I ever have .
I went and sat beside her and held her tight .
She cried and cried on my shoulder like no other .
I kissed her forehead .
She patted my arm for me to release her .
I wiped her eyes . " Okaay baby get gone it's getting dark . " She said getting up to lead me to the door .
I followed . " Okaay moms love you . " I said stepping out the door .
She grabbed me pulling me back . " Come visit me you hear ? "
I chuckled . " Yes ma'am . "
She kissed my cheek . " Alright love you . "
• Devin's POV •
Von finally came from out his moms place and hopped in the car .
He looked a lot better than he did earlier .
He handed me a piece of paper and said go .
I already knew we were going to KP's grave .
Me and the guys been before but we never told Von because it would have hurt little bro to bad .
See KP was a big brother to all of us .
He got us in the game and anything else we asked for .
He took us to party's , showed us how to get girls . Shit we all lost or virginity to his girlfriend .
KP was like a father to all of us and when he died we all was hurt but not as much as Von .
My nigga was depressed .
" You think she forgives me ? " Von asked breaking the silence .
" Well do you think she would have invited you today if she didn't ? "
He shrugged . " I don't know , do you think KP forgives me and knows I'm sorry ? "
I left the question unanswered .
" Well we're here go ask him . " I said pointing out the window .
Von hopped out the car and head for the tombstone marked with KP's name .
KP Johnson beloved son , brother and grandchild .
Von dropped to his knees on front of the stone .
I left him and sat on a near by bench .
" He big bro . " Von started touching the stone . " I miss you , I wish I didn't leave that night . "
He started to choke up from all the tears he was trying to hold back .
" KP , I hope you forgive me ! I fucked up I left you ! I left you for dead meat K ! " Von screamed letting loss all his tears .
This was one of the threw times I've ever seen Von like this .
" KP , you remember when we was kids and you always said never trust a soul not even family ? Well I felt like you didn't trust me that night K ! I could have help ! No one ever wants to open the door to opps ( police ) and they say your brother was beaten to dead and shot four time in the head ! K why didn't you let me stay ? I could have help ! " Von voice got louder and louder and he was now standing a kick the tombstone .
" I could have help K , I could have done something . It should be me six feet under and you crying your eyes out . You scared that one day you gonna wake up and everybody will see you as a failure. It should be you taking pills on the daily to deal with all this pain. It should be you momma hates because it was you K ! You didn't let me help and I could have help . It should have been you getting thrown out at 14 , it should have been you KP . It should be you out here slanging to provide for yourself . It should be you KP . "
" It should have been you . " He repeated over and over again breaking down piece by piece in front of the stone .
He cleared his throat and stood .
" I know no matter what I say could being you back , but I know one thing . I can't hurt no more KP . I can't I got to live my life now . I love you and I hope you do sincerely forgive me K . " He said before placing a gold ring on top of the stone .
He looked my way and head for the car .

We hopped in a silence felled the air .
Von was resting on the window , crying his heart out with no tomorrow .
I pulled up to his house and without a word he hopped out .

• Ramon's POV •
After the whole Devin thing died down we all went back to our regular ways . Wake Up , Eat , Start Slanging , Meeting , Start Slanging , Sleep and Repeat .
The guys haven't been the same lately but I got better things to force on .
See I got in the game to provide for my family .
Yep family , I got a girl and a baby on the way and the only thing I know is the streets . & Thats all I need in life .
Me , My Family & My Hustle .
• Devin's POV •
On my way how Leak called for me answer about the Dyamon thing .
" Sup little bro ? "
" Nothing , on my way to the crib . "
" Coo coo so you thought about that answer . "
And without second guessing I said " I'm in . Me , You & Dy Sunday Night . "
He chuckled in happiness .
" Look I promise this won't be no mistake Dev . "
" Yea whatever . "
