Sky and Kadeem : A Hood Love Story

Timeless Love

I worked at the strip club most days but other days i was doing hair out of my home. I started posting my work on social media and gained more followers and clients. While Tyhir was at school I would do hair and make sure the crib was straight but by night i was Cali Breeze the stripper. Kadeem started coming around more and things started to heat up. He was in prison for 2 years for drug sales after being released at 18 for his robbery charge then dipped back off to Chicago to link up with his siblings. He's been out in Chicago since getting out of prison. I still don't know how he found me but i wasn't gonna stress about that.

I was making dinner when Kadeem walked in carrying a brief case and two duffle bags.

"Baby what you got?"

Kadeem sat down at the kitchen table and opened the bags so i could see what was inside. Inside lay a couple bundles of heroin and two bricks. His brief case was full of money with a 9 mm glock strapped to the side of it.

"Listen... I know you been talking about opening your own hair salon since we was kids. Imma do that ...Just lmk that i can trust you to ride?"

"You can trust me. Put that gun up, I don't want Tyhir getting ahold of it."I said kissing him on the cheek. I was nervous but i had to remember i was Jania Flores' daughter. My mother did it all and was one of the most respected queen pins in the area before she passed away. As I was making something to eat , Kadeem crept up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist.It all happened so fast. My silk blouse is on the floor, my skirt is on the floor. Kadeem's eyes are wild and raw with lust. I pull him closer and I can feel his lips press against my chest. I lifted my legs over his shoulder and bit my lip while he slipped on the condom. He's now fully inside of me. I'm so wonderfully full and want to scream but instead I moan.

Are you close?" Kadeem asked.

"Yes, daddy," I moaned in response.

We were both done shortly after, and he pulled me close. We stood there for a moment in silence, gathering ourselves in the aftermath of passion. My hair was disheveled, and I was covered with sweat. Kadeem smiled at me, and I could tell he wanted more. But Tyhir would be getting home soon, so we got into the shower to wash up.

"Round two?" He asked jokingly as the water ran over us.

"No boy!" I chuckled and kissed him. After we dried off, I collapsed onto the bed while Kadeem grabbed his Playstation controller. The air conditioner turned on, giving us some relief from the heat. I closed my eyes for a short nap, feeling completely exhausted but content. I love Kadeem no doubt about it . I respected his grind and knew what came with riding with a bad boy. I just feared for Tyhir's safety the most. I lost my mother and my siblings to the state i couldn't take losing my son.

When i woke up it was night time and Kadeem and Tyhir were sitting at the kitchen table coloring. I laughed and Kadeem turned around and smiled while sticking the middle finger up at me.

"Hood niggas color too!"He laughed. I walked over to him and played with his braids.

"You need to let me braid this shit over here...who been doing your hair?" I scoffed undoing his braids.

"Some girl named Keisha that my homie dates."

"Well Keisha don't know what she's doing. Did Tyhir eat?"

"Yeah baby he ate we grabbed some mcdonalds."Kadeem smiled slapping Tyhir's hand.

"Come on Tyhir its time to get in the tub and ready for bed. Thank you baby."I said kissing Kadeem.

"Yea. Imma be in the room playing the game."Kadeem smiled walking in the room and shutting the door behind him. While i was giving Tyhir a bath my phone began to ring. It was Cynsere.

"Yo bro."I said answering the phone.

"Sky...its about mom."

"Wassup?"

"She's not dead...."Cynsere responded. I dropped the phone and i could here Cynsere still speaking on the other line. I got Tyhir out of the tub feeling woozy. After getting him dressed i placed him in his room. My phone began a couple more times. It was Cynsere again.

"What do you mean she's alive?" I asked him slightly out of breath.

"She's in witness protection...somebody came to see me today and told me."

"I mma call you tomorrow Cynsere i can't talk about this right now." I ran back to the bathroom and began throwing up... What the fuck is going on.
