'we were just driving back and they pull him over, searched his car and then arrested him' i sighed putting my head into the cushion on the sofa
'i told him to give me all his shit he told me that was everything'
'what did he give you' jada asked
'look in my bag' i shrugged 'i don't know why he carries this shit round'
'he's part of a gang mel what do you expect' dave said
'you gotta get rid of this' her eyes widened as she looked inside my bag
'i'll give it to sav' i replied
'will they not just give him a fine or something' jada asked
'they've wanted him for time, they've actually got something to charge him with now' dave explained
