Omniscient POV

It's been a month since A'Lyric found out about Braydon's suicide and confession. She hasn't been able to trust nobody but her momma, her sister, and her child.

A'Lyric felt like everybody was against her because the boy she's been dating for 2 years betrayed her trust. If he was this close to her, Jay was near. A'Lyric knew the best way to keep her and her son out of harm's way, was to stay in the house.

A'Lyric started taking online classes and pulled Malik from his daycare once again. She knew this was the only way to keep them both safe.

"A'Lyric, this is my friend Maloni I was telling you about. Maloni, my twin sister A'Lyric." Harmony introduces the two. Little did she know, she was only being set up to do this.

Maloni had befriended Harmony a month ago thinking she was A'Lyric. This wasn't the plan but it wasn't far from it. Maloni's been taking her time to finally win Harmony over. Today, which was Tuesday, Maloni agreed to go to Harmony's house to study.

"Awwn. He's so adorable. How old is he?" Maloni gawked over a handsome Malik, as he slept on Lyric's lap.

"Harm, I keep tellin' you to stop introducing me to ya friends. Just cuz' they yo friends, don't mean I wanna meet them."

A'Lyric wasn't always like this. She was the more pleasant sister until her rape occurred. Then her filter just slowly but surely started disappearing.

Maloni scuffed as Harmony led them to her room. "Don't mind her she's been going through a lot lately."

Harmony was actually going through a lot too. But she made new friends to keep from confronting her pain. She'd lost her boyfriend Justin. But the pain wasn't as bad because they'd only dated 3 days before he died. But it was still so tragic.

Harmony was also very close to Braydon and his suicide left her shaken. She still hasn't opened the letter he left her. School just hadn't been the same without the two. Nobody really talks about their deaths, or them at all for that matter.

Harmony was so into her thoughts, that she didn't hear Maloni. "Harm? Did you hear me? I'm going to the baffroom."

Maloni walked back to the living room instead. She pulled out her phone and snapped a picture of A'Lyric and Malik. They were asleep, cuddling as if protecting each other.

Maloni sent the picture to Jayceon as she walked to the bathroom. This is gonna be a piece of cake. Maloni thought to herself as she washed her hands.

Jayceon received the picture across town. He was currently at Walmart purchasing a bunch of little boy's clothes, toys, and shoes.

He looks just like me man. I can't wait to hold hm.

Jayceon didn't have time to argue with Maloni. He wanted to hurry and get his plan on the go. He has already purchased a day bed for Malik. "I think that's enough for now." Jayceon sighed rubbing his face.

Tomorrow is the day Maloni kidnap the baby. A'Lyric asked Harmony to babysit while she went to a doctor's appointment. Harmony shared this information with Maloni and she decided it was time to start the plan.

*************************

Five doors down from where Harmony and Maloni were studying, a hooded figure stood on his porch. He had been watching the twins for the past two weeks.

He knew they weren't safe. He didn't want to scare them by telling them anything. He honestly didn't know what exactly to tell them. So all he did was watch them from a distance, especially Malik.

*************************

Back inside of Harmony's room, Maloni and Harmony screamed the lyrics of Betrayed by Lil Boosie. "No need for friends, fuck friends, friends turn into bustas!"

The music was cut off. "Yet you're still making new friends," A'Lyric said holding a crying Malik. "Y'all done ruined his nap. Have you seen his teddy?"

Harmony huffed and looked around her room. "No I aint seen it and it aint in here. Get out my room."

Maloni observes the sisters' attitudes towards each other. Meanwhile, the teddy bear was already in her book bag. "Well, that was a lit study group. I'll be over tomorrow at noon." Maloni confirmed and packed up her books and headed home.

The hooded figured man noticed Maloni by face and scooted to where she couldn't see him. "What was she doing in there?" He thought as she continued passed his house, not even looking up.

Maloni had made it home to find it full of toys and clothes. She was starting to think kidnapping a child was a little extreme. But when she saw the big smile plastered on Jayceon's face, she knew she was bettering her family.
"You like all this bae?," Jayceon asked motioning over the items that filled the living room.

Maloni was nervous about becoming a mother of his child. She wanted to be a mother but not this way. But if taking this baby away from his mother was gonna save her relationship, she'd do it three times.

Jayceon, on the other hand, was ecstatic. He couldn't believe that in less than 24 hours, he'd have his son for the very first time. He knew that he could provide for a kid, maybe even 10. His drug money ran as long as the Mississippi River and he was slowly getting out of the game.

Maloni and Jayceon waited on Kalilah to get home and filled her in on their plan. Kalilah didn't say much of how she felt about it to them but she wasn't feeling it. She was gonna put a stop to it before it got too far. Little did Kalilah know, the plan was already set and someone else was plotting to make it different.

Tomorrow will be the day that a lot of lives will change. Good, bad, crazy or filthy rich. But to Baby Malik it would be new. A new life, a new mom and a daddy he's never met. Malik is only four years old so he won't understand much... Or so everyone thinks.
