60 Minutes
meeting that Claudia just had and the mysterious car that followed her.
    “First things first, can we agree that your ass take a bodyguard with you when you step foot out of this house? I’m pretty sure the piss-on that was following you was probably somebody that was trying to cash in on Samuel’s bounty. I don’t know what I would do if something were to happen to you.” Jani’rah said with sincerity in her voice.
    That made Claudia smile. “Awh the big bad wolf does have a heart. You do love me.” Claudia teased.
    Jani’rah shot her a “whatever bitch” look. “I love you and all, but I said that because I already have problems with Samuel’s ass and I don’t know what I would do if Uncle Patrice comes from Haiti looking for me.” Jani’rah half joked.
    Claudia was the only daughter out of four children, and although Jani’rah’s uncle raised some of the roughest sons in Haiti, his daughter was his prized possession. Before Jani’rah moved Claudia to the states, her uncle made it very clear that his baby return in one piece.
    “You know my father will never hurt you; besides, I ain’t going nowhere,” Claudia said then continued to drink her beverage.
    “Shit, he better not! On a lighter note, when do you think you gonna let your girl in on what we doing? This problem has to go away ASAP because business is slacking; most of the girls are backing out on me due to the disappearance of Tasha.” Jani’rah hated to admit it but Samuel had her girls shook.
    “I’m going to call her tomorrow and swing by her house to let her know the plan. If she agrees then good; but if she doesn’t, I’m going to have to silence her because we don’t need another case on our hands.”
    As the girls were talking, Jani’rah’s phone began to ring.
    “Hello. Hey Hanz. Really? You think we can trust them? All right, I trust your judgment. Around nine is cool. Talk to you then.” Jani’rah ended her phone call with Hanz and saw that Claudia had been anxious to find out what the call was about. “Boy, I hope this works out.” Jani’rah said out loud.
    “Did he find some more bodyguards?” Claudia asked.
    “That he did. He’s bringing them over tonight. He said it’s about five of them, but they are deadly.” Jani’rah said as she got up off of the couch to tell her chef to prepare a meal for her guests.
    BOOM!
    A loud crashing noise came from outside. Claudia quickly jumped up and grabbed her gun. Jani’rah did the same and grabbed her AK47 from under the cushion of the couch. “Stay down and follow me upstairs to my room.” Jani’rah said in a low whisper. As they made their way upstairs, they heard gunfire coming from outside followed by the crashing sounds of her windows in the living room.
    When they got to Jani’rah’s room, Jani’rah hit a button on the wall that made a forty-inch screen come down from her ceiling. The screen showed the events happening outside of her home. They watched as her bodyguards fired back at two masked men. Yeah, it was five against two, but the masked men had hand machine guns and had already taken out two of the guards. Jani’rah thought that they were going to be successful and gain access into her house until the same black Lexus that had followed Claudia home earlier crept up and finished them off, then sped away just as quickly as they came. They watched as the guards walked through the gates, which were now hanging from the hinges due to the bomb that the attackers had used to blow it from its locks. Jani’rah couldn’t take it anymore.
    “Ils viennent a ma masion. Ouais quelqu’unna mourir!” she yelled out in frustration. Claudia knew that her cousin was pissed; because the only time she spoke in French was when she had enough of a situation and was ready to go to war.
    Seeing that the coast was clear, Claudia felt it was time to get Montica in on what they were doing to get things over with ASAP. She knew it was late, but desperate times called for
