Acknowledgement

I feel so blessed to be twenty-three years young and able to dive fully into my passion...into my career. I’m steady growing, learning, and reaching for better through it all. I have to give all thanks and praise to the heavenly father because he truly been on my side! I so very thankful for the creativity and strength to get up every day to do something I absolutely LOVE.
To my dear family, I’m blessed to have you alllll. In this industry I witness authors struggle to receive support from their families, and I have to say that is not my testimony. You all have been in deep support from the beginning and I don’t take it for granted.
To my mother, no one will fully grasp the deep connection and bond we have. A picture, a video, or even this acknowledgment could NOT express how much I love you. You are my dawg, my ride or die, my whole heart!! Growing up, I watched you fight to give me everything my heart desire, to growing up and watching you fight against cancer. I remember wanting to swap bodies so you didn’t have to endure no more pain. You are my superhero. You stayed encouraged and you didn’t give up. You told me you would fight the fight, and you did just that! We in this for the long haul and it’s forever fuck cancer!!! #MaMaCoCo
To my bestie boo, Shannon, you been with me since lovejoy days playing tetherball! We came a mighty long way together. Your a mother now, which rightfully made me a God mommy. Arynzi is truly a blessing from God, and she has two bomb ass mothers to call her own! Even though her bad butt likes to bang on my computer when I’m trying to write lol.
To my niece Gabby and nephews Jhordyn and Collin Ace, your aunty loves you dearly. When I’m down, it’s your faces that gets me on track to get back to the grind. No matter the mood I’m in, you three can turn it around. The world is yours if I have a say so in it! S/O to all my babies! Kyn Doll, Tre Tre, Serenity, Ja’Koye, Ja’kyah, Jahlon, Mani, JuJu, Kiah, Trista, Nylah, and Jasheer! #CoCoLoveDaKids xoxo
To my brother, thank you for being a father figure I needed. You have always supported me and done your best when it comes to guiding me. You are more than my brother, you really my twin! Thank you for everything and keeping my best interest at heart! I love you so much and forever my favorite person!
To my cousins that are honestly just like sisters, Shareena, Justina, Brichel, and Kquemura, you all have had my back in the toughest of times in my life. I know I can count on you all when my world gets flipped upside down. You all come through without a doubt in mind! Even my sister Meagen, you are a big sister that I can’t forget. We share no blood, but that alone couldn’t make us any closer.

Previously in Part 1

Within the last month, the pressure was hitting us from everywhere. Keoni was not her usual self. Every day she was consumed with Emil being locked up. Ever since she got her first visit, she stayed her ass at the county. At the least, she was on the phone with Emil. I didn’t want to come off as if I was hating on their relationship, so I handled the business we did have. Keoni was so far gone with Emil getting his charges dropped, she wasn’t thinking about how the men were detrimental to the deals we had made. Even with good product, everyone was starting to be scared to fuck with us. It pissed me off every time they preferred to speak to Shaqir or Emil. Me and Keoni had conducted over half the deals, but they didn’t acknowledge the fact. I was beginning to realize that we either set new deals, or get Shaqir and Emil back before everything begins to crumble under our feet.
“Tiaura did you forget that we shared a cell, together? It’s okay if you caught feelings for Shaqir.” Keoni spoke, as I tossed clothes into a suitcase. We were at my mother’s house and had just finished dinner with her. With all my free time, I had been right here trying to get a plan in motion because Keoni´s head wasn’t together at all. I could say she was doing everything to free her nigga, but everything else was second. I knew she was trying to be there for Emil because he was on the inside having to digest that his brother was not only shot, but also missing.
“It’s nothing but business. Emil is gone fighting a case we don’t know the fate on. We lose Shaqir, we lose money. We´ve come this far, I’m not taking the loss with him right now.” I clarified. Keoni might have been warming to the thought of love, but right now that was the least of my worries. All I wanted to do was get my money and take care of me and my mother. School was even on the back burner but wasn’t off my list. I just wasn’t doing it full time.
“So, you´re saying you´re packing this bag to fly all the way to Miami because you feel money is on the line??” she said with an attitude.
“Damn right.” Using old connections, I found out that Lupe and Celeste transported Shaqir back to Miami. I had been close to a few nurses from us attending the same college before my conviction. It wasn’t nothing them messy hoes wouldn’t tell me. I hadn’t gotten a second of sleep because I just kept thinking of the loss we would take.
“Why are you so calm?” I came right out about it. “I know you were closer to Emil, but that’s his brother. Why isn’t Emil telling you to get on the shit with Shaqir??”
Seeing her body language change, she sat on the bed. That dick was something to this bitch because she has never held out from me. “Emil got a message that Shaqir pulled out with us to work back with El Cartel. He thinks Shaqir made have done the deal with Lupe even though that’s not what we want to believe.”
“That’s bull shit.” I said calling it what I saw it as. “You know like I know what being in a jail cell does to you. Emil is wrong and whoever sent that message. Shaqir would never.” I said not believing that shit for a second. I hated for it to sound like I was defending him because that was the last thing I cared to do.
“I can’t go off of nothing else.” she said, letting me know she was on Emil side.
“You can go off the fact that he
