MX
Mike, meet Sam
Sam has a happy smile on his face, with two guards behind him.
SAM
I have heard so much about you.
I am going to make you a star.
I even saw you fight that
Friday night.
MIKE
I know you.
SAM
Even better.
The two guards brings out their gun pointing it at Mx and MIKE
SAM
Then you know what I want.
MX
What the hell is happening?
SAM
Where is she?
MIKE
I don’t know what you are talking
About.
One of the guards gets closer to him with the gun, mike immediately grabs his wrist up, twist the gun down breaking his finger from the trigger takes the gun. He knocks the guard out with a punch and points it back at Sam, but the other guard is already holding MX with a gun behind his head.
SAMs
Beautiful triangle, you kill me
you and your brother dies.
MX
(Panicking)
Mike, I have a freaking gun on my head.
MIKE
Oh really, I did not know, thanks for
Pointing that out.
MX
Drop the gun Mike.
MIKE
Why don’t you tell the person with a
Gun on your head to drop his gun.
Mx looks at the guard, his face is not exactly pleasing, with a big mole on his lips.
MX
(Irritated)
How do you kiss?
The guard groans at him.
MX
Mike, I don’t think he likes me.
SAM
You shut up.
The guard squeezing his throat
MX
(Struggling to talk)
Wait before I do that, can you
Tell him to take it easy with me.
(hitting the guards hand to
release his throats)
Hey nigga I can’t breathe
He releases him a little.
MX
Thank you.
MIKE
What do you want?
SAM
I already mentioned it. Where
Is she?
BASKET BALL COURT, DAY
Anjola and Bunmi sitting watching, Ben and his friends play basketball.
Ben throws the ball at Bunmi she catches it surprised, confused at what to do next.
BENJAMIN
Come on, make a basket.
BUNMI
I don’t think I can.
ANJOLA
You never know till you try.
BUNMI
(She throws the ball back at him)
I am honestly not in the mood to play.
BENJAMIN
Okay, he continues with his friends.
ANJOLA
You don’t have to let it eat
You up.
BUNMI
She rejected me again Anjola,
I feel like a rag.
ANJOLA
You must be the prettiest rag ever.
BUNMI
Stop it.
ANJOLA
That Margaret woman,
You are seeing her today?
BUNMI
Yeah.
ANJOLA
Why did you call her?
BUNMI
I don’t know, she is the first
Woman that has ever shown interest
In me, like a mother.
ANJOLA
You know I am here for you right.
BUNMI
(being sarcastic)
You owe me your life.
ANJOLA
(smiling)
Yeah I do. Where are you going
To from here?
BUNMI
The club.
ANJOLA
I have never been there.
BUNMI
Not my fault.
Anjola runs off to the court, takes the ball from one of the players, they start complaining, and she shoots and makes a basket.
ANJOLA
Don’t test me guys.
Bunmi just laughs a little as they both share a cheesy smile
CLUB, OFFICE, DAY
They still have the guns on their faces, only this time Sam is taking a drink sitting.
SAM
This is exhausting.
MIKE
I really cannot help you.
SAM
I know you are Margaret’s brother.
MIKE

SAM
So your family is bunch of
Sick people?
MX
Tell me about it.
SAM
Shut up. I think we need to get
A little serious here, shoot him in
The leg.
MX
ME or him?
SAM
You.
MX
Oh shit please, I am the innocent
One here.
MIKE
If you shoot him, I would
Shoot you.
SAM

The door gently cracks open, there attention shifts to the door, Bunmi’s voice is heard behind the door
BUNMI
Hey Harry, give me a minute….
MIKE
(To himself)
Oh shit.
