Running Her Mouth

Chapter 16

Kandii and Nita pulled up in front of Kandii's home.

"Girl that trip was fun right?"   Nita asked.

"I guess so but, now I'm having gamblers remorse."  Kandii rolled her eyes.

"What you mean?" Nita said.

“Devin and I share an emergency credit card.”

"So.

A lot of couples do that Kandii.”

"Yeah but, I spent it all."  Kandii sighed.

She got out of the car, making sure to grab her luggage.

“You don’t get it Nita.

 I was not supposed to use it.

I mean, I gambled my ass off.

Why didn’t you stop me?”

Nita gave her the, are you crazy face.

"Your grown shit.

 I didn’t know I was supposed to baby sit you.”

She thought about it for a second.

"Hold up,

Are you trying to say that you want my share of the air fare and the hotel suite?"

Kandii suddenly stopped on the stairs.

"Did I ask you?"  She said, turning to face Nita.

"Damn bitch,

I'm trying to tell you something!"

"OK and what’s the point then?  Nita sucked her teeth.

I paid for all my own food and for my gambling.”

Kandii sighed and ran her fingers through her hair.

"Nita, I spent 6 grand between the casinos and the activities."

"What the fuck?

"When?"  Nita’s jaw dropped.

Kandii made it to the front door and unlocked it.

She did not know if Devin was home or not.

She stepped back closer to Nita.   Whispering she explained what she did to Nita.

"When you were sleep bitch.

In the a.m.’s I was bored.

Wheel a fortune is my shit OK. 

Every time I won... I wanted to win more."

Nita nodded.

"Yeah, I see what you’re saying.

Look can we go inside though?"

These pumps are killing me.

Kandii looked down at her 6 inch Prada strappy sandals.

"I bet them bitches do hurt."

They shared a laugh and a few more jokes.   They walked into the house and Nita immediately headed for the guest bedroom.

Kandii followed her.

"Girl I still can’t believe that Mamma James gave me a freebee."

She turned to Kandii and high fived her.

"I have one more night of freedom.

 I hope you don’t plan on staying home."

Nita checked the time on her cell, it was only 6pm.

"No but I do plan on taking a nap.  The flight was long."   Kandii yawned.

"Well yea, I'm talking about leaving out at like 11pm.  After we get some rest and shit.

No one goes out early.”

Kandii stifled another yawn.

"Well bitch you know where I'm headed.”

She wiggled her fingers and made her way to her bedroom. 

Once she was gone, Nita locked the door, then grabbed her purse and giggled.

She slowly opened her Gucci handbag.

Pulling out the fat wad of cash, she giggled again.

"I hit big she whispered!"

She was playing on a random slot machine.  When the damn thing started to whoop and holler.  Thinking she broke it, she was about to make a quick getaway, but before she could move her shapely ass off the stool.

Security had walked up on her.

Nervous as hell she awaited the punishment.

Then they shocked they hell out of her by congratulating her!

She had hit the jackpot!

Fifty fucking, thousand dollars!

After she paid Uncle Sam his due, she took 10 grand in cash and had the rest deposited into her account.

Kandii was lucky she loved her.

She planned to give her 5k just to be nice.

She put her money back into her purse and then laid on the bed.

She fell asleep with a big ass smile gracing her face.
