China

Red and I are in the mall.

He finally got me a new phone since he broke mine and he wanted to stop inside Nike..

"You like these?" Red asks, showing me a pair of colorful Nike's.

"Yeah those are cute" I tell him nodding.

"I'm getting both of us a pair" He tells me causing me to smile.

"Thank you" I hug him.

"Of course" He tells me.

He calls over a Nike employee and gives him our shoe sizes so he can go to the back and get our shoes.

My phone vibrates and I look at it seeing a text from Lola. I kept the same phone number I had before..

Lola🐰💕: Please bring me two cinnamon pretzels from the mall. I will pay you back when you get here.

Me: Girl you good on paying me back. I got you.

Lola🐰💕: Thank you ❤️

I lock my phone and look back up as some thick, light skin, instagram model looking bitch walks in eyeing Red.

"Red?! I thought that was you!" She gasps like she's in shock.

"Oh shit, what's up Kim" Red smiles at her.

Jealousy instantly runs through my body as he smiles at her...

"Long time no see" Kim bites her bottom lip.

"I'm China" I speak introducing myself and ruining their moment.

"Hi. Are you his....daughter?" Kim asks me with a fake smile.

"No, I'm his girlfriend" I answer, giving her a fake smile back.

"Oh.. Okay" She says putting her attention back on Red.

"Well it was good seeing you again Red. Maybe we should get together sometime... for old times sake" Kim tells Red with a smirk.

"Fasho" Red reply's pissing me off.

He watches her walk away as she leaves the store.

"Fasho?" I ask Red

"It was just conversation" He tells me shrugging his shoulders as if it was nothing.

Let that have been the other way around, he probably would've shot the dude...

"Okay" I walk out of the store, Not wanting to argue with him.

"Where you going?!" Red asks yelling after me.

"To the food court to get pretzels for Lola" I tell him not looking back...

"How may I help you?" The Cashier at the pretzel place asks me.

"Can I have three cinnamon pretzels" I tell her, adding one in for myself

"$15.91" She tells me.

I reach into my purse pulling out a twenty dollar bill and handing it to her.

She gives me my change and receipt before walking away to grab the pretzels.

"Hi China" A Jamaican voice says behind me giving me chills.

I turn around seeing Kane with some bags in his hand from shopping..

"Hey" I speak, looking around nervously for Red.

"You look beautiful, as always" Kane compliments me with a smile showing his pretty white teeth.

"Thank you" I reply smiling and looking down.

"Here's your pretzels" The Cashier hands me the pretzels.

"Thank you" I tell her before walking away.

"Wait, are you going to tell me why you deleted me on Instagram?" Kane asks causing me to stop walking and turn back towards him.

Fuck...

"Oh Um.. because I-"

"What's up?" Red asks, walking up with Nike bags in his hand.

I let out a sigh of relief that Red came because I had no idea how to answer Kane's question..

"Nothing just getting the pretzels" I tell Red as him and Kane do this weird stare.

"You ready to go baby?" Red asks putting his arm around my shoulder.

"Baby?..Oh I see, he's your boyfriend?" Kane asks in his Jamaican accent and no lie its kind of sexy..

"Yes I'm her boyfriend" Red says mocking Kane's accent.

"I'm surprised. She could do much better than a soft light skin nigga. ..She needs a real black king.." Kane tells Red while smirking at me.

"She good where she at" Red assures him.

"You haven't seen my cousin Mello around have you Red?" Kane asks Red making me nervous as I remember what Red had told me about killing Kane's cousin.

"Nah, Now that I think about it. I ain't seen that nigga in a minute...You checked the Morgue?" Red asks with a smirk.

Kane chuckles but I don't think he was actually laughing..

"I'll see you later China..You too Red" Kane walks away.

"Let's go" Red tells me.

I follow him out of the mall and into his Mercedes Benz.

"What did Kane say to you before I walked up?" Red asks me as he cranks his car up.

"Nothing much, just that I looked beautiful as always" I quote what Kane had said.

Red scrunches his face up..

"And what did you say?" He asks.

"I said thank you" I tell him honestly.

"Telling niggas thank you and shit" He mumbles but loud enough for me to hear.

"It was just conversation" I say, mocking what he had told me earlier when he was talking to the instagram model in Nike...

"Keep playing with me" He threatens, looking at me then back at the road.

I look away and roll my eyes before leaning back into the seat.

The rest of the ride back to his place was quiet..

"Lola!" I yell as we walk into Reds house.

Lola walks downstairs wearing a tight fit leather black dress and heels..

"Oh shit, where you going?" I ask admiring her outfit.

She does a spin so I can see her outfit better.

"Just out with a play but this one is more of a sugar daddy so he wants to take me out to eat and spend time with me before we do the nasty" Lola tells me.

I laugh at her saying do the nasty.

"Period, you look cute" I hand her the two Pretzels she asked for.

"Thank you. My Uber should be here any second and I'm going to go meet him by the gate" Lola tells me.

She gives me a hug and walks towards the front door.

"Be safe, love you!" I tell her.

"I will, love you too" She leaves.

I'm happy she's looking into other options. I honestly think that the sugar daddy thing will be much better for her oppose to daily tricking. I mean I know it's all the same when it comes down to it but it's a different feel...One guy vs multiple.

"Kane knows" Red talks on the phone, Bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Because I just saw the nigga at the mall and he asked me have I seen Mello" Red says still talking on the phone.

I can't hear the other person so I have no idea who he's talking to..

"Alright bet, let everyone know to be on high alert while we come up with a plan. Don't go nowhere lacking" Red hangs up the phone.

"Shit about to get serious. I'm not letting you go anywhere without a guard" Red tells me.

"A guard?" I ask confused.

"Yes, I'll have one or two niggas from my gang watching over you at all times when I'm not around. Me and my men are preparing for war baby so I'll have to spend a lot more time away at the trap" Red tells me as he texts on his phone with a serious expression on his face.

I nod.

Red

"We have to get these niggas before they get us" Brent tells me while we sit in my office smoking a backwood at the trap.

"Exactly and I'm going to personally kill Kane myself" I tell Brent.

"What did he say to you at the mall?" Brent asks me.

"He was all up in China face at first. When I walked up he asked me if I had seen Mello, I said no then I asked that pussy nigga if he checked the morgue but listen to this..Before he walked off he said see you later China.. you too Red" I tell Brent

"Nigga must don't know when he see you again, he gone see Mello too" Brent chuckles.

"No cap. I got Lamar and Big A watching over China when I'm not around. Now that Kane knows China my girl she might be a target too" I tell Brent as my phone vibrates.

I check my phone, reading a text..

"I just got word from one of our sources that Kane taking a trip to Miami this weekend for his Uncles funeral.." I tell Brent with a smirk..

"So let's catch the nigga at the grave yard" Brent says, already knowing what I was thinking.

Catching Kane by surprise as he leaves the burial is a good idea since he won't be expecting us all the way in Miami..

"Looks like we taking a trip to Florida for a few days" Brent pronounces Florida as Flawda while rubbing his hands together like bird man..

China

"Can I come?" I ask Red as he packs his suitcase for Miami.

"I don't want you getting hurt if anything goes wrong"

"But Red-" I start to say and he cuts me off.

"No" He says sternly causing me to pout.

I look at him with sadness.

"Go pack your suitcase and hurry up" He rubs his face like he's aggravated but I don't care since I got my way..

I told Red I was from Florida but I never said which part..

Miami is my home town..I haven't been back since my mom kicked me out two years ago.

"The guards will be here to look after Lola right?" I ask Red as I pack my suitcase

"Yes. Lamar will stay here and watch Lola. I'm gone bring Big A with us to keep an eye on you in Miami" He tells me.

I smile.

....

We get out of the Uber at the airport to catch our flight to Miami, It's six in the morning.

We walk into the airport and I instantly spot Brent and some pretty hispanic girl with Honey colored hair..

"She wouldn't let me leave her" Brent tells Red, pointing at the Hispanic girl.

"China wouldn't let me leave her either. She started pouting and shit" Red tells Brent.

"All she did was pout. I damn near got my teeth knocked out" Brent says causing me to laugh.

"Hey Friend" Brent gives me a hug

"Hey friend" I giggle as Red gives us a jealous look of suspicion.

"Hi I'm Sofia, Brent's girlfriend" Sofia holds her hand out for me to shake.

She looks no older than twenty three or twenty four..I honestly didn't even know Brent had a girlfriend.

"I'm China, Reds Girlfriend" I tell her, shaking her hand.

"Nice to meet you" She smiles.

"You too" I tell her.

"Flight AA two zero nine, now boarding to Miami" A voice says over the intercom.

"That's us" Red looks at our ticket.

We all grab our suitcases and head to our flight.

....

Brent

"I love it here" Sofia squeals as we walk around south beach with Red and China.

China doesn't seem too impressed..

We're here on business but since our ladies are with us we decided to have a little fun too.

"God damn" I say to myself as a thick fine bitch walks by wearing a bikini.

"God damn what?" Sofia ask slapping me on the back of my head.

China laughs.

"Don't get abusive in Miami, your ass gone be locked up in jail somewhere unfamiliar" I tease Sofia while rubbing the back of my head where she hit me.

My phone vibrates with a text from Georgia boy.

"Everybody else just landing" I tell Red while reading Georgia Boy's text.

"Alright, we gone meet them at the hotel" Red tells me.

I nod.

"Time to go back to the room ladies. Both of y'all gone be in one room until we get back and big A will guard y'all" Red tells China and Sofia.

They both nod.

China

"How long have you known Brent?" I ask Sofia as we sit in the room bored.

We're inside of Her and Brent's room with Big A.

"Four years going on five" Sofia tells me.

"Wow I've only known Red for about four or five months" I giggle at the comparison.

"Time doesn't matter, he loves you. I've known Red just as long as I've known Brent and I've never seen him with anyone..Like in an actual relationship at least" Sofia tells me causing me to smile.

"Well that's good to hear" I feel special.

"How old are you?" She asks me.

"I'm nineteen and you?" I ask her.

"I'm twenty three" She tells me.

I knew it !

"Cool" I nod.

"You want to smoke?" She asks, going to her suitcase.

"Yeah but Red didn't want to risk anything going bad at the airport so he said he would get us some weed here" I tell her.

"Oh no, Brent and I still snuck some with us" She says in her Hispanic accent.

She sounds like Sofia Vergara.

I laugh.

"Well I'm glad y'all did" I tell her as she starts to roll the weed she got from her suitcase.
