Doto the unforeseen circumstances, the gang had to cut their trip short. After seeing the news and returning calls, they made their way back to the villa to get their things—only to be told that their stuff was already gone. Since they were in the jungle with no service, Dakari called uncle Lewis and informed him on what was going on. He checked them out of the villa and was granted permission to go in their rooms to retrieve their belongs.

Once they were notified about that, they ran back to the truck and Kai sped off towards the private airfield. Do to her speeding, they made it ten minutes. They rushed into the jet and uncle Lewis took off. Both sisters were sitting under each with worry on their mind. Trying to remain positive. They landed in Dallas around four and loaded up in Bari's truck.

After a long quiet ride to the hospital, Bari parked at the door and let the girls out. They ran inside and headed straight towards the front desk.

"Excuse me." Bri called out to the nurse that was sitting behind the desk. Instead of paying attention to Bri, she was too busy on the phone yapping her gums.

Brielle rolled her eyes. "I said excuse me."

The nurse looked up and held her finger up. Kailani blew out a breath and reached across the desk—snatching the phone and hanging it up. "Now that we got your lovely attention, what room is Za'Keria Jones in? Z a apostrophe K e r i a."

The nurse looked taken back but she started typing on the keyboard. She looked back up. "She's in the VIP wing, what's your relation to the patient?"

"We're her sisters."

"Identification please."

Bri huffed and turned to Kailani. "You bring anything in with you?"

Kai shook her head. "No, I left everything in the truck. Stay right here, I'll be right back."

She ran outside and returned two minutes later with both of their wallets along with Cam and Bari following behind her. Kai placed both of their IDs on the desk. The nurse picked them up analyzing them. She hit a few keys causing the visitors passes to print. "The VIP wing is on the 10th floor, please wear these at all times."

Kailani snatched the visitors passes out of her hand and ran towards the elevator. Everybody stepped on. Bri was standing in the corner patting her thigh, watching the numbers of the floors change as the elevator moved. Cameron reached down and grabbed her hand—squeezing it. She looked up and he kissed the side of her face. Jabari was leaned up against the wall with Kai on his front while he was rubbing his hands up and down her thighs. The small gesture of comfort meant a lot to the sisters.

The elevator dinged and they stepped off heading towards the nurses station. Kailani stepped up. "Excuse me, we're looking for Za'Keria Jones."

"Kai!"

Everybody whipped their heads around and saw Ashley standing at the end of the hall with Sorayá in her arm. The girls ran to their mother.

"Mommy! What happened?"

Ashley sighed and shook her head. "Keria told us that she was in the kitchen fixing her something to eat when she heard glass shatter. She said she stopped what she was doing and immediately called us. She took one of yo guns from the drawer and made her way upstairs quietly as possible. She locked herself in her closet. As me and y'all daddy was getting in the car, we heard yelling. Za'Keria! I know you in here baby! I miss you girl, where you at bitch! She started crying once she realized who voice it was."

Bri closed her eyes and shook her head. "What happened after that ma?"

"I had my other phone talking to DPD and Dakari was driving. Jaylen's voice got louder and closer. Keria started crying harder. I'm trying to calm her down and talk to the police. He found her and since she was crying loudly, he pinned pointed her in the closet. I heard him jiggle the door knob and all I could do was close my eyes and pray."

"Mama..." Kailani closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around herself. Jabari pulled her into him and placed his chin on her head—rubbing her arms.

"He said Oh! I found you baby. Come on out so we can be a family. Why you crying? I scared you? I'm sorry baby, but I miss you. Let's be together again. He was just talking crazy. He kicked the door and she screamed. He was just repeatedly kicking it. Keria was screaming for us and it broke my heart because I knew we weren't going to make it. I guess he managed to kick the door open because she let out a loud gut-wrenching scream I felt it in me. Police said they were like thirty minutes out and we was damn near two to three hours out."

Ashley shook her head and rocked Sorayá in her arms. She looked back up at her other daughters. "I'm guessing she had the gun aimed because he said Oh you gonna shoot me? Our baby won't have a daddy and you won't have a man. I heard her cock it back and a smack. He smacked her and I guess they starting wrestling for the gun because I was hearing stuff break. I heard the gun go off.. then it went off again and again. She shot him twice and her water broke. She's been in labor since she made it. We stopped by the house and once we made it, we had her moved up here since the public know about y'all now."

"Oh my god. Can we see her? Where's daddy?"

"Baby!"

Everybody looked and saw Dakari running out of the room with a big smile on his face. He hugged Bri and Kai tight. "She had him. Being that he's kind of a preemie, they have to stay in the hospital for a while. Baby she was asking for you but since everybody is here, come on."

Everybody followed behind him into the hospital room and Bri gasped. Keria had big hand print across her face and busted lip. Bri shook her head and walked over to her and pushed her hair out of her face causing her eyes to flutter. "Hey baby."

Keria smiled weakly. "Hey. You guys didn't have to cut your trip short."

Kai waved her off. "Please, we can take plenty of trips but we can't get another you."

"Alright mommy, here's your little sunshine." Keria sat up and A nurse walked over—placing her baby boy in her arms. Keria smiled through her tears and stroked his face with her finger.

"It took me a minute to get dilated, but no medicine and only four pushes. Family, meet Zaire Akai Jones. Born July 5th at 4:30pm, weighing 5 pounds and 3 ounces. Meet your tetes and uncles bubba." Keria pulled the blanket from his face and his eyes were open.

"Oh my god. Hey stank." Bri gushed at her nephew.

"Kai are you crying!?" Keria bit her lip to stifle her laugh.

"No. I got something in my eye." Kai turned around facing Jabari, who was shaking his head and laughing.

"I hate to interrupt, but I need to take the little one to run some tests. Once person may come with, but you have to stay in the bed." The nurse stepped over and grabbed Zaire from Keria's arms.

"I'll go." Dakari ripped the blue scrubs off and kissed Keria on her forehead before following behind the nurse.

"Ma." Keria looked over at Ashley who had tears rolling down her face. Kai walked over to the sink and washed her hand before grabbing Sorayá from her mama.

"Come here mama. I'm okay, stop crying please." Keria held her hand out and her mama climbed into the bed with her.

"Damnit Za'Keria! I thought I lost you. Don't ever scare me like that again you hear me!?" Ashley wiped Keria's face and cuffed it.

"I hear you mama. Is he dead, did I kill him?"

Ashley shook her head. "No but he's going to jail for a while. Since we have proof of him harassing you, the threats from social media, and now the breaking and entering. He's downstairs."

Keria shook her head. "I hate it had to get to this point, I really do. But I don't have baby clothes here. Everything is either in Hempstead or Houston."

Bri shook her head. "Yes you do, I got you some stuff at my house but I'm not sure if we can go over there."

"You can, but you can't stay. Your daddy is going to have somebody there first thing in the morning to fix everything." Ashley said as she stroked Keria's hair, who was slowly falling asleep and fighting it.

"Well lets go. I need to shower and get out these clothes. You need anything?"

Ashley shook her head at Bri's questions. "No, just bring her back something to eat."

Bri nodded her head and everybody followed behind her. They made their way to elevator and stepped on. She hit two for the emergency floor. Once the elevator made it down, Bri was the first one to step off. She sprinted off to the right. The other three looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Brielle!" Kai shouted and followed behind her. Bri was peeking in the windows of the doors looking for Jaylen. She stopped at last door and smirked. Looking to her left and right, she twisted the knob and stepped in. She shook her head. Jaylen was handcuffed to the bead with his shoulder and abdomen wrapped.

Bri look behind her. "Somebody be a look out."

"Oh hell nah! You finna kill him? Nope, I'm leaving." Jabari whispered yelled and shook his head. He turned to walk out of the door but Kai pulled him back by his shorts.

"Girl what the hell." He swatted his hands at her.

Bri shook her head and walked over to the side of the bed. She smacked Jaylen and everybody in the room wince from the impact. Jaylen rose up looking around. He scooted back on the bed when he realized who was in face.

"Surprise muthafucka." Bri grinned. She punched him in face—drowning blood from his nose.

"Oh lord! We're about go to jail." Cameron smacked Jabari upside his head.

"Shut up man." Cameron folded his arms across chest and stood by the door watching Bri.

"You know." Bri spoke. "You're bold, very bold. First you told my sister to get a abortion, choked her in front of our father, denied the baby and then you broke into my house and put yo hands on her AGAIN!"

"Then you had the nerve to call her all types of bitches and hoes on social media when she's been with you forever." Kailani added in. She shook her head and pressed down on his abdomen, where he was shot.

"Fuck!" He cried out.

Brielle gripped his shoulder making the stitches rip open. "Come around my sister again, I'll kill you myself and be glad my daddy didn't come find you."

"Okay y'all that's enough." Cameron spoke up. The girls walked about from the bed and walked out of the room with their men following behind them. They made it back outside and climb into Bari's truck. Kai pulled off and drove into the direction of Bri's office. Thirty minutes later she was pulling down their street. Easing to the driveway. Bri shook her head at the yellow tape that was around the house. Cameron stepped out the truck and tore it down—motioning for Kai to pull on in. She drove down and parked behind her Jeep.

"Me and Bari finna go to his apartment. We'll meet y'all back at the hospital."

Bri nodded her head and grabbed her bags stepping out. Cam grabbed the other ones and they walked towards the front door. He pulled out his keys and unlocked the front door. Bri kicked her shoes off and made her way upstairs. Shaking her head as she made it to the top. Keria's room was first and it was stuff everywhere, the closet door was off the hinges and there was a big stain of blood. She noticed the bullet holes in the wall and shut the door. Walking into her room, she walked over to her dresser and grabbed a ponytail holder—throwing her hair up.

Walking into the bathroom, Bri started the shower and striped from her clothes—throwing them into the basket. She pulled her shower cap on and grabbed two small towels before stepping into the shower. She set the towel on the rack and stood under the shower head—letting the hot water cascade down her body. About a couple minutes later she felt a draft. Meaning the door opened. Cameron stepped in and wrapped his arms around Bri, bringing her body into his body. He placed kisses along her neck. Bri turned and faced him.

"What's on your mind mama?" He wiped the water out of her face.

"Everything that happened today. I know I've said it once, but I'm really sorry pooh." She pouted and cuffed his face rubbing her finger along the cut.

Cameron smiled and leaned into her hand—grabbing it. "You're forgiven. I know it wasn't intentional."

She kissed his lips and turned around grabbing her towel—lathering it up in her African black soap. She cleansed her body, rinses and washed up with her shea butter dove body wash. After doing, she stepped out and let Cam have the shower. Bri pulled her big towel from the hook and wrapped it around her body. Walking over to the sink. She grabbed her toothbrush, wetted it, applied her toothpaste and started brushing her teeth. Once she completed that task, Bri headed into her bedroom and dried off her body. She rubbed her body down in coco butter and applied deodorant. She pulled a pair of seamless underwear on and a sports bra.

Opening up her bottom drawer, she picked up the first thing she saw. A pair of grey leggings and pulled them on. Going over to Cam's side, she took a shirt and pulled it over her head. Cameron walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist and shook his head. "Always stealing my clothes."

Bri waved him off. "What they say? What's mine is yours."

"Yea yea. Move out the way." Cameron bumped her with his hip.

"Just rude." She shook her head and walked into her closet—returning with a black pair of brkenstocks in her hands. She dropped them on floor and sat on the edge of the bed bring her leg up. She twisted her anklet around and removed it—throwing it on the dresser. She pulled her shower cap from her head.

"Baby, where we staying at tonight?" Bri looked at as he was rubbing his body down in shea butter.

"I was going to slide on my parents for the night and let you be with yo family for the time being." He rubbed his face and lips.

"Okay let me pack a little bag. Can you go in the trunk of my car and grabbed that Gucci bag." Bri hopped off the bed.

"What is it?" Cam pulled on a pair of shorts and a long pair of white Nike socks.

"A diaper bag." She walked into her closet and grabbed her spray ground bookbag— kicking the bin of baby clothes out. She bought her babysister and nephew some stuff just for her house.

"Girl you too rich for me." Cameron shook his head and pulled on a wifebeater.

"Boy bye. We're neck and neck. Bring my phone too when you come back."

"I gotchu baby." He smacked her on her ass and walked outta of the room.

Even though Zaire is a preemie, he's also a average sized newborn. Meaning that he'll be able to fit his clothes. Bri opened the bin and grabbed a pack of diapers, wipes, onesies, bibs, socks and basically anything a newborn baby would need. She grabbed a couple things for Sorayá and threw everything on the bed. She slid the bin back into the closet and walked back out.

"What the hell. Where all this come from?" Cameron dropped the bag on the floor and looked at the stuff on the bed.

"You bought it." Bri pulled the diaper bag from the box and sat it on the bed.

Cameron drew his head back. "Excuse me?"

Bri laughed and removed the paper from the bag. "That one day I went out with Nova and you gave me your card? Yup."

"Big head ass lil girl." He mushed her and laid across the bed.

"Call Kai for me."

Cameron unlocked her phone and called Kai while she packed the diaper bag. She packed the pampers and wipes first. Then she added the clothes and other necessities.

"Hello."

Bri looked up. "Kai! You done left yet?"

"Jabari wait! Shhhit."

Cam and Bri both whipped their heads looking at each other. Bri hopped in the bed. "Kailani!"

"Yyess? Oh my god! Hhhang up, Hang up Bri. Jabari please!" Kailani was on the other end getting her back beat in. Bri hung up the phone and looked at Cameron in shock.

"Did we just really hear that?"

Cameron nodded his head. "I believe so mamas."

Bri shook her head and dialed her mama's number. "Mommy."

"Wassup muffin? Where you at?"

"Still at the house. Y'all still in the same room?"

"No, we just moved into a bigger room because we figured you and Kai wanted to stay over night with her."

Bri nodded her head as if her mama could see her. "Okay I'm about to leave now. I'm stopping at Waffle House because that's Keria's fav, is that fine with y'all or y'all want something different?"

"Hell nah! Get me a patty melt muff!"

Cam busted out laughing. "Pops a trip man."

"I gotchu daddy, what about you mama?"

"Dakari, I swear if you wake these babies, it's gonna be hell to pay and I'll take the all star."

"Oop! Alright, see y'all in a little." Bri hung up and shook her head. She climbed out the bed and packed a outfit and some essentials into her bookbag. She grabbed her mac, glasses and chargers. She grabbed a throw blanket and slipped some fuzzy socks on her feet. Y'all know hospital air be on polar bear pussy!

Cameron grabbed her bags and looked around. "You're forgetting something mamas."

"What?" She looked around the room.

He pointed at her head. "No bonnet and the visitors pass."

Brielle smiled at the small gesture. She walked over to her dresser and grabbed her scarf along with her bonnet plus the pass. Cam hit the lights and they made their way outside. Cameron locked the door and hit the keypad to his Mercedes. He opened Bri door and slid her stuff in the backseat. He walked over to the drivers and slid in—adjusting his seat.

"Oh this muthafucka nice." The interior was peanut butter colored with blue stitching.

"You really outdid yo self mama. C'mere."

Cameron reached up and placed his hand around her neck. He applied pressure and Bri moaned. Cam smirked. He licked his lips and gave Bri a nasty tongue kiss. He sucked on her tongue causing her to moan. He pulled back sucking on her bottom lip. Shaking his head once he saw her hooded eyes. "Nasty ass."

He let her neck go and pressed the start button. He pressed the gas. "Shiddddd!"

Bri laughed and shook her head as he reversed down the driveway. She looked down at her vibrating phone and saw a message from her mama.
