Everything became all distorted and foggy, my breaths begin to go in slow motion. Suddenly i can hear the footsteps outside the room. Suddenly i can hear the chatters outside the room.

Is this what a panic attack feels like? My legs became weak and numb as i stare in the eyes of the person who broke me down. As i stare in the eyes of the person i threw away my life for.

My mom and Trey.

Throughout this fogginess i hear my moms voice. I don't know what she's saying but i hear it, loudly. I see her moving, if she was to attack me i wouldn't be able to do nothing about it.

Embarrassment brushed upon my face. Disappointed brushed upon my face. Anger brushed upon my face. Everything that i pushed down came back.

And at this moment i wanted to run, run away very fast. Run away very far, from everyone and everything. Dad knew, he had to have known the name of the person he was meeting with.

This is a test, he's testing me right now.

My mind suddenly comes back as i hear a unfamiliar voice.

"Are u okay" A lady says approaching me.

I blink to get my control back. I see all eyes on me, from Treys side. I look down to see she has water, she's holding water for me.

"No thank you, i just completely blanked for a second" I say, catching my breath and walking to sit next to Lucas.

I slowly and cautiously look up at Trey, seeing i'm not the only one affected by this meet up right now.

"Nice to see you again" Treys dad says.

"I wish i can say the same" I reply back to him, looking at him.

Lucas lightly chuckles and my dad looks at us with seriousness.

I'm sorry, being with my dad has taught me not to hold my tongue. Or lie about how i'm feeling, so i said what i wanted to say. He should be proud, i'm learning.

My dad clears his throat.

"Well you have my attention what do you need?" My father says.

"In the most non pathetic way, help, we need your help. Your work is amazing, we need the 2 ppl you work with and some equipment." His dad says, strongly.

"And what makes you think i would do that for you?" My dad replies.

I have been looking at my dad and Treys dad back and forth as they talk. Nobody else, i'm ready to go.

"You would be getting 15% of the profit back in return. We would be allies, we can help boost your credits up." Treys dad replies.

My dad chuckles and has a devilish smirk in reply. I knew why, i been at more then enough meetings to know why.

"Lucas" He says, wanting him to take over.

"We don't settle for no less then 35%, why would we settle for 15%?" He asked, cockyish.

"Why not? You see what we can do, the work we can do" Trey replies.

"Actually I don't, according to your graphs yall are actually losing this battle right now" Lucas says.

Lucas can be real, how do i say this, fearless, careless, ruthless.

Trey laughs, his devilish laugh.

"We wasn't prepared and we haven't had time to prepare because our men are dying left and right." Trey replies, honestly and stern like.

"And what makes you think we can help you with that" Lucas replies.

"We don't need you, Lucas, we need the two people Mr. Jones been working with" Treys dad replies, like his patiences is out already.

"See that's the thing" Lucas begins to say.

"We are the 2 people my father has been working with" I say, finishing. Noticing the tension.

"Y'all need the best, we are the best, y'all need money, we have the money, y'all need equipments, we have equipments" I say and the attention goes to me.

"What i'm hearing is a whole lot of "we need", i'm not hearing enough of what we get in return" I say confidently.

I just knew Trey was going to be the one to reply back. Nope, wrong.

"Shut your mouth and sit there quiet, your a little ass girl" The mother of the year says.

"Watch it" My dad replies.

"Or what?" Vea replies.

"We step" Lucas says.

"I don't care" Vea says.

"They do" I say, referring to Trey and his dad.

"I said shut up, you little whore" Vea says.

I sit up, from leaning in my chair.

"Or what? Your going to disown me from the family again? Put your hands on me again? Chose dick over me again? I don't care, i have a family now" I respond back to her.

"Vea, enough" Treys dad says.

"Sanya" My dad says causing me to look at him.

"Turn. It. Off" He says, strictly.

Vea laughs.

"Sanya? You go by that again?" She questions.

I rolled my eyes and surprisingly, i turned it off, enough to tune her out.

"The tension has been rising since you guys stepped foot in the door. It doesn't have to be like this, we can be allies" Treys dad says.

"Control your muppets" Lucas says, causing me to laugh.

"Control your tone and words" Trey replies.

"Or what, what are u going to do Trey?" Lucas ask, pushing it.

"Lucas chill" I whisper.

"He's not going to do nothing" He responds, loud enough for others to hear

"This is very unprofessional" My dad says, sarcastically.

Lucas looks at him for the "permission" look and my dad just nods.

"They're weak, the whole team, the whole gang, the leader, everybody" Lucas continues.

Please just be a test.

"You don't know who you're speaking to" Trey says.

"I do, you don't know who your speaking to." Lucas says.

I peek to see Alex's hand slowly reaching down underneath the table.

"Watch it" Treys dad says.

"Y'all and these damn watch it threats, y'all ain't going to do shit" Lucas says, loudly.

I peek to see Alex beginning to stand. He and I stand at the same time.

He has his gun pointed at Lucas and I have my gun pointing at him.

I see Vea run from the corner of my eye and the people in the other crew standing. Not with weapons, trying to control Alex.

"Drop it Alex" I say.

"Woah, Alex man, chill" Malik says.

"Alex, put the gun down" Trey says, looking as if he wants to aim at him himself.

"We don't need their disrespectful assess, we don't need their money. Y'all are just going to let them sit here and talk to us like this" He says.

"Alex do you see the gun that i have aimed at you. Your slow, your to busy focused on one person you couldn't see the one watching you the whole time. You need us, I can literally kill you right now." I say over his shit.

But that has caused him to now aim his gun at me.

Lucas stands up with his gun aimed at Alex. He's protective. But now Devonte is aiming his gun at Lucas.

I peek at my dad to see him laid back in his chair. We connect eyes and i beg him with my eyes.

When shit is hot and it's about to go down but he doesn't do some signal we can't back down. But these were the bros and Trey was the love of my life. I don't want to see any of them injured or dead.

He sighs, in a way of defeat.

"Tell your men to lower their weapons and they'll lower theres" My dad offers.

Trey whispers in his dads ears and now his dad doesn't reply.

I peek to look for Vea, i believe she went under the table. Trey is sitting in his chair unfazed and Treys dad honestly looks worried.

Me and Lucas look at eachother, we do this when we're about to do something. How do i say this, evil, dangerous, dope.

We have to wen dad doesn't signal. Out the corner of my eye, i see my dad staring at us.

"No" He says.

Trey looks at me with confusion, there's just so much going on at once.

"Sanya, Lucas" My dad says, by the tone, we knew.

We gave our guns to him and walk out of the room. Yeah, we're kind of, fuck it lets light shit up together. It's not my fault, i'm just a angry person. And everybody's whos been in Lucas life wanted something or fucked him over.

Behind us comes Trey, Vea, Devonte, Malik, Alex and Zion.

"Shit got hot in there, sorry Nya" Alex says, approaching me.

Lucas steps in front of me, like i said protective.

"You aimed a gun at her, something inside of you wanted to kill her or injure her." Lucas says.

He steps closer.

"I don't fuck with that" Lucas continues, dragging me away.

"And it's Sanya" Lucas shouts

We walk away, finding some snacks. Lucas seems innocent and brotherly like material. But when shit goes down, when it's business he's not. He has a "fuck it" mood, like he's untouchable. And so far, he is.

After a good 15 minutes security comes to direct us back to the room. We stand outside the room as my dad and Treys dad exits.

"We settled, Lucas i'm leaving you, Sanya, let's go" My dad says.

"Dad no, you know I don't do a mission without Lucas and Lucas doesn't do a mission without me" I say.

"I'll look after her, don't i always? " Lucas says.

"It's dangerous Sanya" He says, looking like a worried father.

"Me going to the mall is dangerous, do you see whos daughter i am?" I say.

He takes a few seconds.

"Fine, whatever, Aj is going to be mad" He says, walking over to me.

"He'll get over it" I say.

He reaches me, handing me me and Lucas gun.

"Come by the house once you guys got instructions and are settled. Left a car with Wallie downstairs for you guys" My dad says, walking to the elevator.

"Okay" I respond.

I turn around, with the eyes of Trey on me once again.

"Alright, we need to be heading downstairs as well" Treys dad says.

"Let's go little one" Lucas says putting his arm around me, walking us towards the stairs.

We reach the parking lot, seeing everyone waiting. We walk over to Wallie and he hands Lucas the keys.

"Uh uh, you know i'm the better and faster driver, hand me the keys" I say, and he rolls his eyes, throwing me the keys.

"You're going to be following us" Malik says.

I nod, getting into the car.

We arrive at our destination 25 minutes later. We park the car, getting out and walking behind everyone. Lucas has his hand on his gun, just for precaution.

We walk up to what looks like a warehouse. As i'm walking Trey keeps looking back and i keep connecting eyes with him.

"Wats the story there?" Lucas whispers to me.

"Nothing" I say, walking ahead.

We walk into the warehouse and i see a stash of weapons. I'm talking a lot, shit ive seen because i've seen it all. But it was like a lot.

"Sorry to tell y'all this but we plan on hitting a spot now." Treys dad says.

Me and Lucas look at eachother.

"I bet 100 i'll do more damage" Lucas says.

"Higher, 250" I reply.

"Oh ur onnnn" He says, grabbing weapons

"Since when have putting your life at risk been funny or a joke?" Trey says, picking at weapons but directing his question to me.

"Since i've learned that i love the thrill, plus it takes the pain away, momentarily" I say unfazed, grabbing a weapon.

"That's right" Lucas says high fiving me.

Honestly, me and lucas act so childish about it because of my dad. He always says you never know when it can be your last time so make it fun. Not the killing, that's sad, but the moment.

Treys dad clears his throat

"Let's get to work, and Sanya go for a smaller gun." Treys dad says.

I was fiddling with a big ass gun, i don't know what they're called. I just call them by there color and size. And i know one that can do some serious damage.

I stare at him while taking it off safety and cocking it back. I aim at the fake board person, getting a head shot.

Everyone looks at me but Trey, he seems unfazed. But idc it wasn't to impress him or anybody, it was to show that i'm not one to be played with anymore.

"I think she's got it" Lucas says, standing beside me.

"What's the mission?" I ask.

"Clear the place, take the product, the money, the every fucking thing." Treys dad says.

"Children and women?" I ask.

"Untouched" Trey says, finally looking up at me.

I nod.

"Let's roll out" Alex says.

I stay back, i wanted to text my dad. I texted him saying how we're going into a mission and i love him.

I begin to walk out until i feel a arm on me.

"What happened to you?" Trey ask me.

I smirk.

"You baby" I reply, walking out.

As soon as i stopped looking at Trey i took a deep breath in. Poker face Sanya, poker face.
