Do it Again

Part 14

-Kerry-

I was sitting at the bar alone doing some paperwork, since the girls went back home to try to squeeze in some more sleep. It was actually a fabulous day outside; suuny, light breeze, warm, blue skies with not a cloud in sight. I stared out the window daydreaming, when Michael flew through the door almost scaring me off my stool.

Michael: Why the FUCK you aint been answerin my calls?!

He was pacing back and forth, kicking stools over and fuming. I grabbed my bag before he could knock my papers everywhere. I just watched him.

Michael: You deaf?? I know you know I been callin you. I been-

He picked up a glass then put it down, then changed his mind and threw it.

Michael: fuckin callin everybody aint nan one of yall mu'fuckas answer the phone. Nah when Mike need yall niggas he on his own right?

He was scaring me and I think I saw tears in his eyes.

Me: Mike sit down, what happened?!

Michael: nah nah fuck that shit you dont give a fuck. Only she give a fuck but they got her man they got her!

He crouched down and put his hands behind his head and screamed. I didn't know what to do. Ask questions, leave, hug him-in all the time I knew him he had never been like this. Once he stopped screaming I crouched down beside him.

Me: W-who they got? who is they?

Michael: Dumb clueless ass bitch they got Tia! Speed and them got her. And unless I got they money by three which obviously i don't have...FUCK!

Me: Look calm yo ass down, you for damn sure are not gonna have the money if you keep flippin the hell out. And you need to watch what you call me 'fore I go upside your head with one of these bottles nigga.

Mike got quiet and I put my hand on his shoulder for support.

Me: How deep you in? Let's talk sensible business.

Mike: iight...in my office

He stood up and straightened out his suit jacket, the nwalked toward his office with me trailing behind him.
