“What do you think she hiding?” Quincy asked breaking the silence. “I don’t know.” Mae answered hunching her shoulders. “What makes you think she hiding something?” I asked trying to make sense of everything. “I told her that Q felt a way being at the hospital. She kinda panicked.” Mae replied confused. “You sure?” Ki asked watching her. “Yes I’m sure.” Mae replied annoyed. “What did she say?” I asked breaking the tension. “She asked what he say and what I remembered about your dad.” She said looking to Q. “What’s to remember?” I asked looking between Q and Mae. “I dont know.” Mae said watching Q. “Can we stop for a minute?” Ki asked rubbing her back. “Yes of course.” I said walking behind her to rub her back.“What do you remember about unc?” “Everything I believe.” Q said kicking snow. “Wait was it the hospital you felt weird about or was it where we was in the hospital that made u uncomfortable?” Ki asked feeling her own discomfort. “It’s the ICU part

“I can’t believe she called. It gotta be something really wrong.” I fought with my own thoughts as I got ready for the meeting. “ Keys would never set me up so it gotta be something serious.” I said to myself as I tossed on my black hoody and walked to the car I parked around the corner. “All these years of being alone living in the shadows got me going crazy in talking to myself.” I said to myself as I started the car. “11:33 shit is she coming.” I whispered to myself as I circled around again before parking on the Main Street to walk over. I’m better on my feet better as a shadow. It’s easier to not be seen at night when you flow with the night. “You slipping.” A familiar voice called from behind the field house. “Dia,” I said as I turned to see her and Keys standing in the dark. “What has it been 12 years, and you still look 30.” She said hugging me. “You just gone stand there quiet. You called me remember.” I said looking at Keys look at me with worry written all over her f

“You ready to answer some well over due questions.” I asked opening the door. “Can we come in first.” Ma asked stepping inside the apartment. “Who is he?” I ask pointing to the man wearing all black hood pulled low over his face, bringing back memories of visiting the hospital with Ma. ************************** “Don’t stare Quincy.” Ma said as I sat on the chair next to the hospital bed. “Why you bring him here to see me like this Ree?” The bandage man said turning away from me. “I wanted him to know his father at least once in his life.” Ma said pointing towards me with tears running down her face. “Ree.” The man said wiping her tears away. “Not like this.” “Then when? You and I both know you gone have to go underground, and we probably won’t see you again. The world thinks you’re dead.” Ma said crying harder. ********************** “Ma is it true?” I asked breaking from the memory. “Are you Jackel?” Ki asked walking over to him. “No your uncle Jackel died 7 days

“Are you the only twin in the family?” Ki asked Mack as I got Tez attention and nodded towards the door. “What’s up?” He asked as I closed the door behind us. “How do we know we can trust him? He been dead for what 13 years? Now he just comes back when all of this happening.” I rant as Tez sits on the steps. “Ma dukes and Marie wouldn’t just let anyone in here. And we both know they don’t trust too easy.” He said looking at me curious. “Just seem strange to me.” I said finally sitting on the steps. “Is it strange or just hearing what you heard.” He asked patting my back. “Both.” I said honestly. “Maybe you should hear them out.” He said as the door opened. “Can I holla at you?” Mack asked from the doorway. “You don’t have to like him or the situation, but at least hear him out.” Tez whispered as he stood to walk into the apartment. “What’s up Mack.” I asked sarcastically. “How bout you just call me shadow, Mack died a long time ago.” He said pulling a black from his pocket

“Ok, please calm down, I’ll tell you everything.” Ki said walking back to the couch.” “You gone come have a seat?” She asked reminding me of my mother. “What’s going on?” I asked softening my voice. “On my birthday the Met boys kidnapped Budda and shot up the building. Stacy and Marie were shot a couple of times.” She said looking me dead straight. “Stacy took the worse of it it hit her in the stomach and ruptured her bowels.” Ki said looking at tez. “She had an infection they had to give her a colostomy bag.” He finished. “But because she has HIV she’s still in the hospital because she kinda gave up on her life for a while.” Ki said wiping tears. “But I got her back on track.” She said straightening her posture. “So you both were shot and my baby sister has HIV?” I repeated more of a question. “Yes but.” Marie started before I held my hand up to my lips cutting her off. “And my 15 year old daughter got her back on track.” I said laughing as I watched everyone stare at m
