Arely
I watched as Smoke held the phone up to his ear in aggravation while holding his head talking to someone.
He was anxious and worried and I knew it was because I told him what I had done.
It was crazy, because instead of him being happy, he act like he was mad at me.
He wanted to know when and how did I pull it off. He was worried. Probably think police are gonna come after me which they probably will eventually! Fuck me!
"Where you goin?" I heard him say after I walked out of the room.
"Nowhere." I said still walking.
I heard him coming behind me.
"Good, cause you can't just be walkin out round here you prolly ain't even cover yo tracks." He said.
"Well, if the police are looking for me they don't have an address." I say smartly.
"They don't need no fuckin' address you need to lay low or you on yo own Arely I'm for real bro." He said.
"Okay so what am I supposed to do? I can't sit here all day."
"I ain't sayin' you got to, but you can't be checking into no hotels using credit cards and shit." He said.
"Yea you're right." I said folding my arms and leaning back against the cabinets.
"Where the gun at?" He asked me.
"In my purse." I said. Smoke looked at me like I had 2 heads.. he said..."you gotta get rid of dat"
"What? No I just bought it it's mine.."
"You trippin'" he said.
"But why?"
"Was it a revolver?" He asked.
I didn't know much about guns but I knew it wasn't that it was a glock 26.
"No." I said surely.
"If you ain't pick up the casings you gotta get rid of it." He said.
"It's in my purse." I said giving in, going for it.
I got it and passed it over to him while he held a towel.
"Be careful, Don't speak on it to nobody." he said. He wiped it off and took it somewhere.
He came back into the kitchen and he was just staring at me while I ate my pop tarts.
"Why you looking at me like that?" I finally built up the courage to ask.
"Cause, what you do that for, what you got to prove." He asked me.
I pushed the rest of the food out of the way because he had spoiled my appetite with this..
"Nothing I just wanted to do it." I lied.
"So you tryna risk yo life or freedom over some shit I could've handled? It don't make sense Arely, try sum'n else." He said leaning back against the wall like "I got time today" . Smh
"Okay, I did it so I could be part of the gang." I said shrugging. I semi told the truth.
"You in the gang what you think I was lying to you? I can't help that I wanna keep you safe. Maybe if I wasn't fwy I would've care, you'd be on the block slinging for me risking yo life everyday to pay me." He said in the same manner.
"I just feel like I should be there for you, have your back on some ride or die type shit you know." I said.
"Okay, you caught a body so what." He said.
"Yea, and I'll catch another, and another." I said,
He laughed a little..
"We'll talk lata I'm goin'a get Teddy from her mom." He said.
"Well can I roll?" I asked.
He laughed again.
"C'mere." He said.
I got up going toward him where he pulled me in a hug squeezing my behind tight.
"Somebody gone get fucked up behind you." He said putting his arm around me where we got ready to leave.
SMOKE
"See this that shit I be talking bout Smoke!" My bm said.
"How you gone expect me to trust you and you can't even keep it 100 wit me." She said.
We was in the room talkin' business but I had Arely wit me so she was trippin.
"Look, I just came to get my kid and my merchandise, the other shit you talkin ain't got nothing to do wit this." I simply said.
"Oh but you was just hitting me up for some pussy a couple days ago." She said.
"Hell nah, but since you buggin' don't worry bout nun of this shit no moe pack all that shit." I told her.
"Fuck you nigga, you ain't no saint. I can get me a nigga to do the same shit I don't need you, I let you trap my shit while your daughter stay over you don't give af about us noWAY." She said.
She was right. Of course I love my daughter more than anything and anyone, I don't trap here I just stash. Nobody even know about dis spot.
"Yea you right..." I said throwing my duffle bag over my shoulder getting ready to leave. Goofy ass b*
I didn't wanna take long anyway cause Arely was in the car and definitely didn't want her thinking I was fuckin off.
"You fuckin' on a young hoe that's gone get you fucked up, I swear to God I am done with you Smoke!"
She yelled while I was walking out of the apartment .."Why she trippin on you?" Arely said as I was getting back in the car. She had her arms crossed looking upside my head.
I was just thinking damn..
Now who imma get to hold my shit that I could trust..
"Look, I know what I did back when..but I'm done wit dat chick, that was business." I said trying not to cuss in front of Taylor.
"Whatever." She rolled her eyes and started looking the other way out the window.
"Bro, if i wanted to do her I would've left you where you was, and wouldn't"ve been nice enough to tell you I was even coming here, you trippin," I said.
I put the bag in the backseat on the floor and started to drive off.
