Reina's Intrest

Chapter One: "Your name is Santa"

"I've just unloaded my last box, i'm going to start unpacking everything. I'll call you later amor" I say ending the call to my best friend Kayla. I lock my new apartment door behind me, throwing my keys on the kitchen island. I open one of the brown moving boxes and see a photo of me and my little brother Archie. I kiss the photo and put it on the side. The next two hours i spend unpacking my stuff before i'm interrupted by my stomach rumbling. i grab my phone checking the time, shocked to see it's already hit 9:45pm. I order myself some Chinese, run myself a bath, and play some throwback Beyonce. As i get out the bath i hear a knock at my apartment door, i throw on my dressing gown and unlock the door. As i reach out for the bag, the man holding the carrier bag scans my body up and down leaving him with a confused look. He passes me the back, adjusts his leather jacket before walking away.

I decide to ignore his weirdness as i'm far to hungry to care, grab myself a plate and a fork ready to dish out my food. As i look through the bag, i take out the containers and my heart stops when i see what is in front of me. 6 containers all containing drugs, I'm pulled out of my thoughts when i hear an unfamiliar ringtone. I see light shining through the bad, i scurry through through the bag and see a burner phone. As it continues to ring, i swallow the lump in my throat before making the regrettable decision of answer it. I wait until the person on the other line speaks first. "Pleasure doing business with you, yours sincerely" A masculine voice says. "Uh i ordered a Chinese" I stupidly say, smacking myself on the head afterwards. Suddenly he silences himself. "Who the fuck is this?" He shouts aggressively. "Who the fuck are you?" I shout back in the same tone, surprising myself. "I wasn't expecting to have-" I say before i get cut off. "Don't finish that sentence, give me your name and address now. This is me asking nicely" He says. "And why shouldn't i go to the police right now?" I say. "Because you've touched the drugs, your part of the hit list for them now. And no, there's no evidence of me getting caught. I got the surveillance turned off before one of my men came in" He says. "Shit" I mumble under my breath. "Just tell me your name and I'll come and get my stuff. What's your address girl" He says.

"That's not my name. My name is Nova" I say correcting him. "I couldn't give a shit if you told me your name is Santa" He says ignorantly. "Fuck you" I say before ending the call on him.
