Thugging With My Thuggette

TWMT 38

"You got some fuckin' nerve!" I said walking into my moms room.

"What, I had nothing to do with that!" She said.

"Save it bitch." I said.

"Look, I know it didn't look right but they came in here looking for your ass I didn't know what time you were coming." She said. Which she didn't, I never gave her a time.

"Fuck!" I said sitting down beside the bed. I was feeling sick all of a sudden, really sick.

"I gotta go." I said.

"You just got here." She said.

"I know but I gotta go." I said getting up to leave the room.

I got in the car and drove back to Smoke.

I ran straight to the bathroom throwing up. I was so sick to my stomach for some reason.

"Damn again, some's gotta be wrong." Smoke said standing in the doorway kinda scaring me.

"...no I'm fine." I said reaching for the towel he was handing me.

"Where you been?" He asked.

"I just, went to chill with Daisy for a minute." I lied.

"Yea, I see you called you was aite ?" He asked.

Lie
Lie
Lie

I kept thinking to myself. If I was going to be going to jail soon I need to tell him but fuck it..

"Yeah, was just seeing if y'all was awake." I said.

"Oh okay, clean that nasty shit up and come lay wit me." He said making me smile.

I felt so dead inside, all of this was about to be gone I had to tell Smoke, I just had to.

"What you crying for?" He asked me making me snap from my thoughts realizing that I was in fact crying.

"Because, they came at me, I'm going to jail." I cried.

"What?" He said scrunching up his face.

"The cops Smoke, they say they have my fingerprints on the car." I said.

"See, why would you..." he stopped and sighed heavy.

"Arely you fucked up bro. Clean yourself up man, can't believe this shit." He said walking off.

He went to packing the small stuff we did have with us and getting Teddy together.

I thought I was about to be on my own.

We got in the car and sat in silence.

"Look I'm on yo side baby, I can't hide you from this shit but I can try." He said looking over at me.

I was about to cry again.

"You gotta cut that crying shit out ma cause whatever's bout to happen, you gotta be down for whatever." He said.

I nodded.

"Where're we going?" I asked.

"Shit idk, but moms out of the hospital so tomorrow we leaving town."

I nodded again.

I wanted to say goodbye to my mom but if it meant my freedom..

"I'm taking you and Teddy to Ryder crib, she said it's cool." He said.

"Okay." I said and it was silent the rest of the way.

We kissed and he left..of course he told me not to say anything to anybody.

"Bitch why is you throwing up you must be pregnant." Ryder asked me as I was leaning over her bathroom toilet.

"What hell no." I say gagging some more at the thought of me even being pregnant that shit look like it hurts !

"Here, take this." She said holding a pregnancy test box at me.

"No for what?" I asked.

"Just take it, shouldn't you want to know." She asked me.

"What for." I said.

"Girl we both know you and Smoke been having unprotected sex what else could it be?"

"How could you know if I'm having unprotected sex with him."

"Chile please you're too sprung, and you spreading, I mean baby girl got hips for days." She said.

"Okay...." I said, "I'm busted." I said.

"Been busted, all's I'm saying is if so, you should know." She shrugged.

"I ain't pregnant Ryder, just....give it here, I'll take it some other time but not now."! I gave in.

"Aye, I been there done that okay, but what's up wit ya'll and this Atlanta move though cause Kane is tryna drag me alone. I love Chicago this is home, I mean aside from the robbing and killing."

"I just figure hey, what do I have to lose?" I said.

"True." She said.

"But I don't wanna leave my girls." I say.

"See bitch I knew you loved me." Ryder said hugging me.

I started laughing.

I didn't know what Smoke was out doing but I sure had wished he was here. I felt more secure even though I knew he couldn't stop the police if he wanted. Honestly I felt I had everything under control. Whose to say I just was riding with him before he was killed all they have is prints, no gun, no other type of evidence.

SMOKE

I sat outside the hospital waiting for them to discharge my mother. I was leaning against my car smoking a black n mild.

"You know it's no smoking on hospital primacies." I heard somebody say.

I turned around exhaling all the smoke.

"Yeah, what's up detective." I said peeping it was the same ole broke ass detective that's been working most of these murders round here.

"Nun much, what about you what you been up to?" He said leaning back on my shit and folding his arms on some chill shit.

I laughed a lil

"Nun, workin'." I said.

"Yeah I know that much, hard head always been bout that paper huh." He laughed back.

"Mind if I hit?" He asked for the black n mild.

"Nah I gotta cold." I said clearing my thoat and spitting.

Fuck this pig ass nigga, won't get no DNA from me.

"It's all good, ion smoke anyway Smoke." He said.

"So hows ya girlfriend? You must like'em young." He said.

I knew this nigga was just tryna make me turn up...

"You know I spoke with her the other day and umm,, I gotta say, you really should tell shorty keep her mouth shut." He said.

"Fuck is you talm bout.." I said.

"Nun, it's cool, I'll see you soon." He said walking off.
