what you gonna do
G always went to church, even doing dirt he still had faith. His philosophy was We shouldn't be anxious about our bodies, because the soul needs more than food. And the body needs more than just clothes.
He always prayed for his soldiers, none of them have died or been injured but it's better safe than sorry.
This day was different though, G woke up feeling like either him or someone close was in danger. It was Sunday so he was at service when the Bishop approached him "Good morning son"
"Good morning bishop" the two exchanged. The pastor then asked G to come to his office. Once the entered the bishop cut on his hush machine so nobody can hear what's being said.
The bishop started off, Son I can't even begin to remember when I first prayed for your soul but I'll never forget to pray for you everyday. Now son a storms coming your way and it's gonna be worse than the most vicious hurricane tornadoe or any disaster you can think of. God told me to talk to you today and request you don't give a response because son me and him know who you are, what you are, who've you been and who you tryna be. You worry me son, Drizzy does too. But you my son are touched by an angel and no matter what you do God loves you man! I love you the church loved you, G you don't have to hold on to that pain from your father".... G rose up and replied "You don't know bishop, I've killed men to protect this neighborhood to protect to my brothers. I'm not a bad person moe" as he broke into tears "Do killers make it into heaven? Huh? Answer me"! As he screamed the bishop remained calm and replied "Son I have faith that you can change. And I'm sure God understands you was protecting your own people from dying. If it wasn't for you this neighborhood will be messed up! Don't you ever think nobody appreciates the sacrifices you've made. It's takes a strong man to throw away his chances into heaven so the people he loves can live in peace".
The pastor then grabbed G's hands and asked "pray with me"? Through tears G agreed and they began "Heavenly father we come to you at this hour because one of your most strongest and humble souls is in a lot of pain. He's been strong God that you know but he needs to know he is loved and cherished. Please forgive him for the blood we know will come. After every storm there's a sun and every storm runs outta rain. I ask you father to lift this young mans pain. You have chosen him to protect and serve his people and this church Lord he has done that to the fullest extent possible. Only you God can lift him back up he's not a bad person and we are all sinners. Lord I see this is only the beginning for him that doesn't mean pain has to live in him. Forgive him God please". And then G collapse
Onto the floor.
G had fell collapse due to his lack of sleep. He woke up in a hospital and saw Tabby and the bishop was there. When Tabby and him made eye contact he began to cry. "I'm sorry baby" he tried to explain to Tabby but she had told him to rest and it'll be ok. A few hours later he heard Drizzy voice "Wake up nigga, you better wake the fuck up! C'mon G don't leave me like this. I know I fucked up man I know I pushed you too hard I'm sorry". G opened his eyes and couldn't respond he had just found out he damaged his respiratory system and body had shut down. G had reached and grabbed Drizzy by the wrist and forced himself to say "I can't die remember that"? And fell back on the bed breathing hard, he asked "Why you here? I know I got a green light on me by now". Drizzy responded "G I'll never let someone try Nd kill you and not tell you which is why I'm here. We gotta go Draco is about to try and kill you. You gotta get outta town".
G laughed in disbelief and cleared his throat before he replied "Fuck Draco I was never afraid of dying. I was afraid of you being alone in this world. Remember when your mom died? I swore to ride until I died moe. And I plan on fighting this war, I can't let him have control over our neighborhood Drizzy and if I fall you can't either. Promise me you won't ".
Drizzy replied "G I work for the man".... G exploded "So fucking what! You know I'm right nigga, that's why you've been fighting against me. You know just as well as I do we can do better than this. We can take what we got and bounce". Drizzy sighed and said "G it's not that easy for me. And to be honest I'm down with some change". G then asked him "What would your mom say Deandre? You know I'm right man but I'm not running. And you can go back to your life man because me and my troops gonna fight this with or without you. I love you to death but if you against us I can't promise you won't meet your maker as well". Drizzy in shock replied "If it comes down to it G send me to my moms yo". And he left, this is the most pain G has ever experienced. He called for a nurse for more meds to go to sleep.
The next day G was discharged from the ER. Tabby had to roll him to the car and he rose up to enter the passenger seat. First time he did was go for his weed, Tabby asked him "how do you feel"? As G rolled a jay the size of his finger he replied "like shit. Take me home love". The couple rode not saying a word, Tabby knew G was in a bad place right now. So she played music from artist she knew he liked. As they pulled up to their home tabby said G you know you still got me right? You got me, our home and soon we'll have our child. At that moment everything in G's world came to a stop.
Let's hop to the other side of the field for now. Draco was pissed off when he heard the news about G coming gone from the hospital. "This motherfucker just can't die" he slurred drunkenly. As he drank shot after shot he made the worse mistake in the world and said "The Diablo must die". Drizzy cut in saying "Hold on boss"... He was cut off by a gun being pointed in his face by Draco "You with him or me pretty boy" he asked. Drizzy had a decision to make his best friend or his boss. This was the cost of the life they lived, but he known G sense a kid but the gun don't even get to one and he about was about to be done and he couldn't run. So he shook the hand of his boss and the gun was removed from his face.
Draco laughed as if he knew Drizzy would agree.
Drizzy left the club in a heated rage, talking to his self in the mirror. "They not gonna kill G. They won't". He repeated as he speeded to one of his stash spots only G and him knew. He unlocked the garage door and started to load artillery into the trunk of his car. After the trunk was full he called G thank God he answered
"Yo speak " G said
"Yo G we need to meet man they bout to try and kill you man" Drizzy blurted.
"Hold on. WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT" G screamed into the phone.
"Draco was talking drunk man. I don't know how serious he is man but he put a gun in my face and made me pledge loyalty man" Drizzy began to cry.
The phone was silent until
G asked "Where you at"?
Drizzy responded 1225 uk back of southwest ".
G arrived at the trap house 6 hours later, gun visible in his holster. Drizzy led him into the house right where the shit started. G immediately drew his gun as the door close and asked "Why shouldn't I kill you right now"?
Drizzy responded "I'm the only one of them that can get this close, I don't wanna kill you just make sure you war ready". G was confused so he lowered his gun and said "Nigga I run the troops, I'm he war general around this bitch. Or have you forgotten that"? Drizzy began to explain "He wants you dead bruh. C'mon you been the one killing every enemy he had. You're like fucking Luca Brasi". G snickered and asked "So what you like John Gotti?" He laughed. "But for real though son what the fuck you want? I kill Draco you take all that money and either take off or take over? So what do you want because I know you ain't come back to the gutters to tell me some shit I already know ". As the two stood there in silence Drizzy spoke " Its 180 million and about 20,000 keys stashed in the basement of his house". G replied "Damn but that nigga squad got guns galore and more". Yeah but it's a party this weekend if we snatch him we can take the house and kill him" Drizzy finished.
See G ain't trust this shit not one bit, he called Esco as soon as he left the trap.
"What's going on my guy"?
"It's on this weekend two birds one stone".
"Ight say no more see you at the spot tonight".
G hung up and proceeded to drive home in more pain than ever. He knew it'll come to this one day. It's just he always pictured Drizzy on his side.
Drizzy reported straight to Draco. As he entered the club and approached the table. Draco said "I thought you'll run you got more balls than I thought". Drizzy replied "Fuck you I told him what you wanted him to know". Draco stood up and began to clap saying "Eh pretty boy grown up he completed his first mission without his big bad ass Diablo. Now you must kill him". Drizzy was lost for words for about 30 seconds before he asked "Me kill G"? Draco replied "Si my son Si. One single shot to the heart of diablo".
Shit crazy right? When you tryna be a boss you gotta do what you don't wanna do man, but damn. These dudes grew up together, thick and thin. And now the shit is thicker than it ever been, and the loyalty is thin. Where will this end?
