I didnāt know what type of trouble he was in but it must be serious if he was offering to pay my bills let alone for a year. In all of the time Iāve known him he has never offered to do anything more than buy my food or take me out. I called my friend Chanel hoping she could give me some much needed advice.
āYo, Chanel, you wonāt believe what just happened, Raheim just called asking me to go to Jamaicaā
āWHAT! Girl I know your ass said yes right?ā
āYeah Iām goingā she screamed into the receiver making me regret telling her.
āYo I knew his ass couldnāt stay away from you. You two are made for each other. Well, while you out getting your groove back tell that nigga to put a ring on itā In spite of how I felt I couldnāt help but laugh along with her. Chanel was my closest friend and she always knew what to say to either piss me off or make my day. Today was a good day. I wasnāt sure what I needed to do to get my passport but the internet was my first move.

Raheim Starz
Amir wanted to meet at Dennyās said he had something important he wanted to discuss. I knew what his definition of important was either bible study or his mom and the only thing I was willing to hear was how the Lord could save me from this drama. A few heads turned when we
walked in. I noticed how a few of the girls threw glances over in our direction. I wasnāt fazed about any of it at the moment, not until I knew who had it in for me.
āSo whatās up?ā Amir started off like Iām the one who called this meeting.
āYou tell me, give me the short version because I donāt have all dayā I hated being rude but also hated feeling like he was about to set me up.
āI wanted to talk about yourā His sentence was cut off by a cute waitress holding two menus and a smile.
āSorry to interrupt but would you like anything to drink to get you started?ā Her eyes darted back and forth and I knew she was asking herself who looked better. Amir asked for what he always asked for.
āA glass of ice water pleaseā
āJust give me a glass of orange juiceā She sat the menus down and walked in the direction of the kitchen.
āYou know itās no secret that our mom wants to talk to youā
āTell me why I am supposed to care about what she wants again?ā
āRaheim you really need to grow up, she is still your mom whether you like it or not and she at least needs to be given a chanceā Amir stared me down again, which always pissed me off when he talked about Janet.
āIām tired of having this same dumb ass conversation so letās change the subject before it makes
me angryā I felt my blood boiling and I knew I wasnāt going to be able to control my temper.
āCool, but wanted you to know that Iām going up to visit her this Wednesday and if youāre in, you can meet me at the bus station near Frankfordā
I no longer felt hungry.
āListen, cause this is the last time you will hear me say it. I donāt care about Janet, about visiting her sorry ass in prison and she can stay there until the day her ass dies. She has you psyched up believing she killed him for us. She did that shit for her damn self. She couldnāt stand being left behind, thrown away and granted his ass was just as trifling but she made the decision to open her legs and make babies, she wanted to trap his ass and when that shit aināt work she went crazy. I see through her bullshit whether you ever choose to or not.ā I saw the tears building up in the corners of Amirās eyes and I tried not to feel bad. I didnāt want to transfer my anger on to him but he keeps trying to get me to forgive her. As far as Iām concerned Janet Starz is an illusion, an egg donor who no longer exists and the sooner my brother realizes that the happier we both will be.
Amirās fist clinched and before I could do anything he swung at my face landing a strong right hand to my eye. āYo, what the fuck?ā Within moments he was across the table giving me blow after blow. I could no longer see my brother but a man who deserved to get his ass beat. I jumped up from my seat and drove into the side of his head with a punch so hard my knuckles hurt. His knees buckled and he collapsed on the floor. People were screaming and pushing each other out of the
way. The Dennyās manager a short, stocky lady with acne scars started shouting for us to leave. I grabbed Amir by his forearm and dragged him to my rental car.
āGet in, Yo get the fuck in before somebody call the policeā I rushed into the driver side and sped off before one of the nosy people standing in the door got the bright idea to call the cops.
āWhat is wrong with you?ā
āYou keep disrespecting my mom and I swear I will hurt you Raheimā
āOh now Mr. Holy wants to fuck somebody up. Let me explain something to your young ass. Iām not pushing Janet down your throat itās you. I say leave it alone, you still forcing me to swallow it. So how about this, donāt talk to me about her ass again. I donāt care and probably never will and if your dumb-ass gets the bright idea to swing on me again you better make sure you knock me out.ā
Apart of me felt proud of my little brother, this was his first fight and in spite of the blaring pain in the back of my eyelid I thought he did pretty good.
āWhy you aināt never tell me you had a mean right hand?ā
āBecause you never askedā he stared out the window and we rode the rest of the way in silence
Just Getting StartedEveryone in my manās crew sat around my living room table. They were all itching to pay that pretty nigga back.
āListen, I donāt need anyone else to handle this but me. I want to teach him a lesson that he will never forget.ā I looked over at Drake, his face was still wired up and he already lost about ten pounds since the incident.
āYo while you thinking up a strategy that muthafucka is acting like he invincible.ā Ray said angrily.
āI want him to get comfortable so I can attack when he least expect it. I got this.ā Drake started writing on his legal pad. Everybody stopped to watch; whatever Drake said would be how it went down. He flipped the tablet for everyone to see.
Let my baby do it her way, when she needs help
Yāall niggas swoop in and take that nigga out
Everyone nodded in agreement and it was final. They had to give me respect and I was determined to make him pay. I already had him shook and thatās exactly where I wanted him. I knew I needed to move fast before things cooled down. My next move was already in motion and I couldnāt wait to get it started. My girl Pam told me he had a little brother and I already had plans for him. Pam has been attending church for the last two weeks making sure she sat close enough for him to take notice.
āJackie? You sure you got this?ā
āYeah Iām sure; yāall need to stop underestimating me. His ass is already shook and I know where he lay his head at night.ā I didnāt want Ray and his crazy ass friends to handle anything because they were all trigger happy. The last thing I needed was to have a sloppy job land me in prison for murder. I walked everybody to the door so I could take care of my man.

Raheim Starz
I lay in my bed staring up at the ceiling, frustrated that I couldnāt sleep. It was Wednesday and despite how much I wanted to forget about Amir going up to the prison I couldnāt. Though I try to show the world my tough guy demeanor Janet hurt me. Not because she killed my father but because she threw me away like I didnāt mean shit to her. I felt like a pawn in her wicked game and when things didnāt go her way she tossed me to the side with no hesitation. I forced myself to change my thoughts before my attitude changed.
Felicia called earlier to let me know she had submitted her application for her passport. I was happy as hell that I would be out of the country in a few days. A month of relaxation would be enough time to let things blow over. I still didnāt know who the crazy broad in the silver Infinity was but she hasnāt struck again so I guess she was happy with busting out my windows. Not seeing any of my regular girls has put a huge hole in my social life and has my phone blowing up 24/7. I think itās about that time to get a new number anyway. Get a new arsenal of ladies, but this time I would be damn sure to do a pre-screening first. I pulled myself out of bed and took a quick shower. I had some business to take care of with Maya and Alexis before I went off to sunny Jamaica. Janetās letters fell out of the closet when I reached in to get a pair of my Roca Wear jeans. I only read the one letter from Janet but there were two left unopened. I didnāt feel like the drama so I tossed them both back on the top shelf of my closet. Sure they would be there until I had enough courage to open them or throw them in the trash. ******************************************
Janet Starz
I havenāt seen Amir for a few months but I was extremely excited. He told me he was going to ask Raheim to come today and since I didnāt hear anything I assumed he was successful. I shampooed my hair and had Carla braid it into two Indian braids. I tried my best to appear apologetic and vulnerable because I needed Raheim to get sucked into helping me out of this hell hole. My C.O came to the cell to inform me that I had a visitor. I knew she was going to have to handcuff my wrists and ankles before we walked off the block and through the adjacent building into the visiting room. I put my arms out without her asking and for the first time since Iāve been
