Silas Jones| Sy
Miami, FL

"we've been hit" she said as she stopped at a red light

"okay...? you couldn't take care of it" I asked and finished texting truth while smiling at the phone

She shook her head and sighed

"there's a lot of shit you need to learn Silas if you gon be takin over ghost's spot and two, how you think ghost gon react when he finds out you fuckin another nigga in his bed" she asked and the car filled with tension

I put my phone up and my smile faded. "im not fuckin anyone in his bed" I lied and she clicked her teeth

"ain't no use in lyin Silas, if I could smell ass on you and see how messed up you looked. Imagine what ghost would see and smell" she looked at me and I bit my lip

Fuck..she was right

"like I said..im not fuckin anyone" I lied again

"whatever helps you sleep at night- just don't break ghost's heart, we here" she said and parked the car

I got out and walked into the warehouse with her

"i can't stay long, just listen to whatever Jermaine and DD tell ya'" she said and put her hands in her pockets

She walked ahead, her posture indicating a sense of calmness and authority

I took a deep breath and followed closely, the sound of machinery got louder and the smell of metal and plastic filtered in

There were men postered on walls and some walking around, i felt out of place- how could Amir do some shit like this without getting nervous???

Jermaine and DD were in the middle of the room standing over a table filled with dope, guns and stacks of cash and cards

"Bout time yall showed up" Jermaine muttered and gestured for me to come closer. "you know what happened" he asked and I looked at Brooklyn but she nodded for me to speak

"we got hit" I said, sounding unsure

"not only did we get hit but they knew exactly our location and what time we were gon be there getting the shit. you gon have to fix this shit Silas cause we all know ghost ain't here to fix it" Jermaine said and DD grunted in response

What the hell was i supposed to do?

I looked at Brooklyn but she was looking at her phone

I sighed

"you think it was one of ours" i asked and Jermaine and DD gave each other a look

"don't know but we do know one thing, this shit needs to be handled...and fast. if you takin over ghost spot then you need to act like a boss and do yo shit like one, it ain't nothin to kick yo ass out" he said and they walked away, leaving me at the table

"my times ran out- you ready to go" she asked and i nodded

She dropped me off back at Amir's and i went in and sighed, kicking off my shoes

His job was troublesome and I didn't have the brains like him

Let alone the confidence

I knew who hit it but I couldn't exactly tell them I was working with the police

I didn't have a choice...well, I did but if I stopped now then they'd know and God knows what'll happen to me then

My phone buzzed on the coffee table and I picked it up

Shit. Truth.

I thought

Truth: had a good time. text me when you get the chance

I was about to text back when I remembered what Brooklyn said

Did I love truth? Sure, but as a friend

Amir deserved my loyalty

Oh God, what am I talking about now?

I groaned , this was so irritating
