Mama Nina looked down at India. She was still pale in the face. Her condition went from bad to worst in a matter of hours. On top of that the baby, barely making it. It's very small, one pound. She had to be placed inNICU. She's so small. Mama Nina is now waiting on Derrick to show up.

She don't know how he going to take the news about India, he probably will have a fit when he finds about the baby been born early. They had to cut the baby out of India. She was pronounce dead, before the baby was born, but some how, when the baby was out of her. Her eyes opened and closed back. This is not good. No word on her condition yet.

Derrick walked in with his dreads all wild, with a T-Shirt, and basketball shorts, and Nike slides on his feet.

"Well where is Steven?" Mama Nina asked.

"At his house, sleep. When you called I just left. Any news yet?" Derrick asked pulled a Cherry Flavored Kool-Aid pouch out his pocket.

"Umm she had the baby. It was an emergency C-Section, no words on her condition yet." Mama Nina said.

Derrick looked at her, trying to process everything she just said.

"Is the baby alive?" He asked.

"Yes, barely. She's only one pound. It will be a miracle if she makes it." Mama Nina said.

Derrick just turned away from her and back out the hospital, he heard his mother calling after him, but his mind was just on one thing. That is beating the hell out of PeeWee and Sage if he have too.

He pulled up to India step father house and got out the car. He walked straight in the house, since the door always unlock. He checked every room in the house, nobody was there. He then walked to India old room, blood was on her bed. He closed his eyes and reopen them. He looked at the pictures of him and India all over her room wall. One thing about them, they love taking pictures together.

"Derrick!" He heard. Nobody but Steven ass.

"Up here!" Derrick yelled back.

Steven walked in.

"Where is Carmen?" Derrick asked Steven.

"At the house. I know dumb move, but your mom called and told me to come get you before you do something crazy, that will put you jail. You have to be smart with it Derrick. You cant walk up on them, like this. This could get you killed, you have to know what you doing, and this is not it." Steven shook his head.

"Show me how to shoot a gun then." Derrick said to Steven as Steven eyed the blood on the bed.

"Nah my nigga, you won't need a gun. I know you not about to kill no female." Steven looked at Derrick.

"You must not know me very well. My child's life is on the line. My child's mother life. If she don't know make it. What the fuck I'm going to tell her? Or if the baby don't make it, what the fuck I'm going to tell India?" Derrick went to India draw and pulled out a Kool-Aid pouch. Steven shook his head.

"We will worry about that later, right now, we need to think this through. Come on Carmen making Hot Dogs, and chili. After we eat, we can go check on India." Steven said as they walked out India room, and out the house.

"His car not in the yard, and the car he don't drive is in the driveway also." Sage looked. PeeWee just nodded his head. "So what you going to do?" She looked at him.

"Nah you go, I'm staying in the car." PeeWee said, just waiting for her to get out the car, so he get the hell out the city, and leave her ass right there.

"Fine, I'm going in and I'll be right back, with the girl. She look so pitiful it would be easy to take her." Sage chuckled. She got out the car, and used her key she had made a while back. She walked in the house, and the smell of food filled her nose.

Carmen heard the door open and close thinking it was just the boys, she paid it no attention.

"Well well well, if it isn't little Miss homewrecker." Sage walked and said.

Carmen turned around and jumped when she saw Sage smiling at her. Sage took a fry out the pan and ate it.

"What are you doing here?" Carmen asked her.

"You need to get the hell out this house, we can do this the easy way or hard way. Either way, you leaving." Sage told Carmen straight up.

"This not your house to put somebody out of, so I'm staying." Carmen said.

Sage walked up to Carmen, "Are you sure about that?" Sage asked her. Carmen just stared her down. Carmen nodded her head yes. Sage went to grabbed Carmen by her hair, Carmen punch her in her ear.

"Don't touch me!" Carmen yelled. Sage let her go, and walked back on her, Carmen punch her between her eyes. Sage fall.

"Ugh you bitch!" Sage yelled out, as she jumped up off the floor, and tackled Carmen to the ground. They were in the kitchen fighting by the table, and counter, away from the food. Sage gain the top position, Carmen pulled Sage head down to her and started beating her in her head. Sage begin getting weak as Carmen flipped them over and started beating Sage in her face.

"This is for India." She said with each lick.

"What the hell!" Steven and Derrick yelled out as they saw Carmen beating Sage face in, and Sage trying to get her off her.

Steven went to pick Carmen up, off Sage, that gave Sage the opportunity to kick Carmen in the stomach. Sage jumped up quick and ran to Steven and Carmen and started hitting Carmen in the face.

"Oh hell no." Steven yelled out, and let Carmen go, now both Sage and Carmen were fighting, going lick for lick. Carmen grabbed Sage by her head, and sling her on the floor. She took a deep breath, and went after her again. But Steven grabbed her and quickly put her in the room and slam the door shut. Sage sat on the floor, breathing heavily trying to catch her breath.

"Any reason you in my house?" Steven pulled out his gun.

Derrick wanted to take that gun, and kill her his damn self.

"I want you back. I want to reconnect with you. I heard about India." Sage cried.

Derrick and Steven looked at each other and burst out laughing.

"You think we stupid huh? We know you sent threat text her. We know you and PeeWee trying to set me up. Your ass coming to my house, thinking this shit a fucking joke. I'm not a killer, but bitch you pushed me." Steven said, and Derrick turned his lip up.

"Nigga really? Tupac?" Derrick laughed.

"It been catchy though right?" Steven laughed.

"Hell yeah. What we going to do with her?" Derrick asked Steven as Steven walked up on Sage with the gun in his hand.

"Lord I am not a woman beater, but..." He hit her in the temple with the butt of the gun.

"Damn my nigga, you must be taking her to your trap." Derrick asked as stare at Sage on the floor knocked out.

"Fuck no, she going to moms house." Steven said.

"Okay let me go get Car-Men, I should kick your ass." Derrick glared at Steven.

"My bad, shit." Steven said.

Carmen walked back out the room, her face bruised, and a mean mug on her face.

"Mama Lorraine about to beat your ass, Stevie, and I'm going to laugh." Derrick said.

"Wouldn't be the first time." Steven mumbled.
