[Riley]

I push Diggy away and look at him in disbelief.
"Diggy I'm not about to do this with you. I forgive you and all but I love Michael."

He backs up, "I- I'm sorry Riley. Ashlyn is fuckin with my head. I need to protect my name I have too much to loose. I have to do something about Ashlyn."

He sits back down and face palms.

"...Maybe we should just report her to the police; like we should have did in the beginning."

"No because she'll pull out evidence about what I did two years ago."

"Michael can he-

"No! No, no, no, he'll probably kill me if he ever saw me again."

"I told him the truth. He understands."

"Positive?"

"Yes."

"Alright," he sighs.

I call Michael and tell him everything that's happened.

[Michael]

"I'll ask Jaliyah is she can help us," I say.

"No Michael, I still don't feel right asking her for our help," Riley says.

"I told you Riley she's changed!" I look over at Travis, Khalil, and Steelo eating chips on my couch making a big ass mess.

I roll my eyes and go upstairs.

"Put your feet in my shoes Michael. Me, your girlfriend, asking your baby momma, aka the girl that has tried to kill us both, for help on trying to get rid of someone that she worked with."

"I know it sounds crazy babe but she's changed for real."

"Fine Michael. Ask her," She says and hangs up.

I get a call from Jaliyah.

I answer, "I was just about to call you."

"Come over right now," She says kinda scared.

"What whats wrong?"

"Just come over you'll see."

I face palm, "Alright be there in five," I hang up and go downstairs.

My couch is flipped over on the side and Khalil, Steelo, and Travis are playing dodge ball with Cheetos.

"What the hell!?" I say.

"Look Mike! They got two people on they team and I'm beatin em!" Travis says.

"That's a lie," Steelo says and throws a Cheeto right in Travis' face.

Khalil runs in the kitchen and grabs another bag.

"Y'all dumbasses cleaning this up. I gotta go somewhere.

"You just gone leave us at your house?" Khalil says.

"Y'all wanna leave?" I ask.

"...no," they all three say in unison.

"Okay then. I'll be back," I say and grab my keys and leave.

[Diggy]

I look on the floor and see Trevor's phone blowing up.

"Oh shit," I mumble.

"What?" Riley asks.

"My friend, he left his phone," I say and pick his phone up. "He might be coming back to get it. I don't want him to know your here."

"W-why?"

"Eh I don't know...he might kinda be confused why your here-

The front door opens, "Dig I think I left my pho- Riley?"

"Trevor?" A smile appears on her face.

"Um..did I miss something?" I ask.

They hug. "Oh me and Riley have been texting on Instagram for months now. We just were never able to meet up." Trevor says. He looks back at Riley confused. "What are you found here?"

She looks at me, "Well um-

Trevor cuts her off, "If y'all have anything goin on I won't say nothin that's none of my business-

"What? No, no, no I'm here because he's suppose be helping me with some music stuff," she says.

"Oh snap for real? Well I'm in town for a couple of days maybe I can help too."

"Here's your phone Trevor," I hand it to him.

"Thanks bro. Anyway like I said, if you need help from and actual pro, hit me up."

"Shut yo ass up Trevor and get out my house."

She giggles, "Bye Trevor."

He waves and leaves.

"And that's exactly why I didn't want him to know you were here," I face palm.

She laughs and sits back down. Her phone goes off and she answers.

[Riley]

I walk into Diggys kitchen to get a little more privacy while on the phone.

"Hey babe," I said.

"Hey um come to Jaliyah's house right now you have no choice."

"Why?"

"You'll see. Come. Now."

"Michael why?"

"It's Ashlyn," he says.

"Diggys coming with me."

"What? No I don't want to see that-

"He's coming Michael. Stop holding grudges," I say and hang up.

I go back into Diggys living room and get my purse. He's half sleep on his couch.

I shake him, "Diggy get up. Your coming with me."

He opens his eyes, "Where are we going?"

"Jaliyah's house. It's about Ashlyn."
