Rome knocked twice on the door of Safir office door as he peek inside the room. Safir was sitting on his couch on his iPad most likely completely a sketch. He often drew random stencils in between clients to give potential clients references pieces when picking a tattoo.

Safir had a gift to draw, his specialty was portraits. He had been drawling since age 14, he'd make his money at tattoo parties drawing for tattoo artist that couldn't draw for shit.

Safir looked up from his iPad. "Ayo come here real quick. I need a second pair of eyes." he said.

Rome entered the room, making his way towards Safir. When he got close enough Safir handed him the iPad. "I feel like it's messing something." he said.

Rome examined the sketch; from the structure of the tattoo he could tell it was a sleeve piece. "Uhhh make the lion more detailed like you did Tommy piece,"

He held his hand out for the Apple Pencil, Safir handed it to him. Rome made a few minor changes to the sketch that made a big difference. "You fucking with it ?" he asked, turning the iPad around for him to see.

Safir nodded, bringing his hands together to clap. "Definitely, this jawn bouta be fire!"

If Rome could give advice on anything it would be tattoos. Whenever Safir got stuck on a drawling Rome was the person he could count on to help. Rome had more experience than he did so he trusted his judgment before anyone else's.

Rome continued to make his changes to the sketch. "Who this for ?" he asked.

"A regular Frank. Nigga fly in like once a year for tattoo." Safir chuckled to himself.

"Niggas gotta get they yearly fix with Wind Ink." Rome joked. "Ayo you and T decided on the anniversary party?"

"Nope, i ain't have time to think about that shit for real." he answered. "Shit just started to die down. Our family finally getting some peace."

With Monty secret no longer a secret he fell back off his previous plot to end the Diammond family. At the end of the day they were only following orders, his mother was the one to blame. Then there was Nick, nobody saw him as a threat but it was no way he was going to live after doing what he did. If he wanted to stay alive he should've stayed gone.

And lastly Rico dumbass he was no longer an issue for anyone Amir or Alora. He fucked up when he went off script the night of Mecca party. Nick had given him clear instructions to wait for Alora or Nique to be alone when he grabbed them. He knew the way the men of that family got down behind the woman of the family. They wouldn't think twice about putting someone down about Alora or Nique. Rico got cocky which resulted in his death.

For the most part things had been silent for the family. No one was actively targeting them. They were finally able to focus their attention on other things. Safir occasionally thought about Nina and the part she played. She was another person who had fell back from Alora radar.

Safir continued. "I say we give T a budget. Let her come up with something."

"Sounds like a plan," Rome nodded, handing Safir back his iPad. "Check it out now."

He grabbed the iPad with one hand while his fist went in front of his mouth. "Ouuuu, this jawn official. Ima add the lion then send it over to him. Nigga better fuck with it."

Rome chuckled. "I fucks with it so I know he will." Safir held his hand out; Rome extanded his as well doing their handshake. "Thanks Bro."

"Anytime." Rome replied reaching for his backpack.
