We spent the next fourhours formulating a plan to take Andre down. Tech brought some of his equipment with him to keep an eye on the asshole. I didn’t want him getting away before I had a chance to bury his ass. Andre might’ve been hiding out in Oak Cliff with the South Dallas Boys thinking we couldn’t get near him, but we had an ace in the hole, Janae.

She grew up in the area, and still kept in contact with family and old friends. One friend in particular, just happened to be the leader of the South Dallas Boys by the name of Trappa. At first Mike protested, not wanting her to get involved, but after I explained to him that this may be our only chance of getting close to Andre without going in guns a blazing, he finally relented.

Janae made the call, putting it on speaker when Trappa answered.

“What’s up, Nae-Nae? You must be in some kind of trouble if you’re calling me,” Trappa greeted.

Nae-Nae? We all looked at each other hearing the nickname, but no one looked as puzzled as Mike, who was staring at Janae, raising his eyebrow. Janae waved him off as she began to speak.

“Hey to you too Trappa, and yeah something like that,” Janae responded.

“Well, you know I always got your back, even though you left the hood and married that white boy, but it’s all good. So, what’s the problem?”

The white boy statement must’ve hit a nerve with Mike, because he looked like he was about to blow a fuse as his face turned red and he balled his hands into fists at his side. Hell, I think I might’ve seen small whiffs of smoke coming from his ears.

“Trappa, do you know Andre Varner,” Janae asked.

“Yeah, yeah I know him. He’s in town for business. We have a meeting setup for later tonight.”

“No, he’s not. Andre is here to try and kidnap one of my close friend’s little sister. She found out that he was molesting the little girl, just like he did to her when she was younger, so my friend took her sister and ran. Now, she and her husband have custody of the child and Andre is here with his wife to try and take her,” Janae informed.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. Nae-Nae, are you sure about this? I’ve known Andre for a long time, and if what you say is true, that’s a complete violation. You know what me and my siblings went through with my pops.”

“I swear it’s true, you know I wouldn’t lie to you about some shit like that. His wife showed up at the girl’s school today, starting mess. Trappa, these people are going to bring some shit to your doorsteps that you don’t want. Have you ever heard of the Kourakos Greek Mafia family?”

Trappa was quiet for a moment, then replied, “That’s those crazy white boys who took out the Italians. Yeah, I’ve heard of them with their ruthless ass. I heard one of them is clinically insane. What do they have to do with this?”

Everyone looked at me as I grinned with pride.

“They are, but never call them white boys, ever, and the one you think is insane, is the little girl's brother-in-law,” Janae said.

“No shit?! Oh, hell naw. You know me and my crew stand tall against any family, gang, or faction we think is a threat against us. I have no beef with the Greek’s but...,” Trappa blurted. “I am not trying to have those kinds of problems.”

“And you won’t, if you just let me know what time and where your meeting is going to be tonight,” Janae explained.

“Nae-Nae, I’m not trying to be in the middle of their shit.”

“Trappa, if you do this, then the Greeks will look at it as a sign of respect. They have no qualms with you and your people, they only want Andre. They are the type of people who stick to themselves and don’t bother anybody unless they fuck with them first. You never know, doing this might open up the door to doing business with them in the future,” she pushed.

Trappa thought it over, then came back with, “Alright, alright. It’s going to be at the old Boys and Girls Club building off of Jefferson at ten. Do you remember the one?”

“Yep, I really appreciate this,” Janae thanked.

“No prob, just make sure they are here on time. I don’t want to be in Andre’s nasty ass presence any longer than I have to be. I should knock his ass myself, but I’ll save it for the Greek’s. I’ll let my people know not to fuck with them when they get there.”

“Cool, thanks again Trappa,” Janae said before she ended the call.

“What the hell is this Nae-Nae shit,” was the first thing out of Mike’s mouth.

Janae rolled her eyes, then replied, “It’s a nickname I’ve had since I was a little girl. Only the people in the old neighborhood still call me that.”

“Well, I don’t like the way he was saying it. Did the two of you used to have something going on back in the day. Matter of fact, why do you have his number in your phone,” Mike questioned, as Janae stood from her seat in front of him.

“No, we didn’t and I still have the number’s of my loyal friends from the old neighborhood. Trapp just happens to be one. His dad was just like Andre, except he used to beat Trappa and molest his little sisters. I was close to the older sister and would let her and the younger one hide out at my house when their dad was in one of his moods. Trappa always looked out for me after that.” She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek, calming him down.
