Episode 8- The Lyon's Roar
"It's not funny."
"Your brother is going get you for that one."
"I personally do not care."
Legend chuckles. "I'm aware you don't care."
"He seriously jacked my budget and tried to blame Hakeem when in fact I know he did it because of earlier." Mercedes points. "And another thing-" Legend stops in mid lift of his drink. "who the hell was he talking to?"
"At the time I would assume you."
Mercedes looks back. "Don't piss me off."
A smile from him as he didn't even need to look to feel her glare on him, he raised his glass back to drink. "I apologize. Continue."
"Now I don't want to."
Legend cut his eye making her roll hers and sit down next to him and rests her arms back on the bar.
"He really hates me for something I had no control over, to this day. Hakeem and Jamal don't even get this much grief."
"They aren't daddy's little girl." Legend made a point.
"Not you to."
"I'm making a point."
"I don't see it."
Legend waved his hand in front of her eyes.
"What. Are you doing?"
"Making sure you not losing vision."
Mercedes grabbed his hand and moved it to his smirk.
"I should have just went back home."
"You would have still seen me."
"So." Mercedes sighs. "What are we going to do about Kirk? You know that Storm not giving you that property."
"Not even on his death bed."
"I can't send Maya in there for more information, her even giving me what she did is a blessing. But I don't want to bring trouble to her doorstep, she's trying to steer clear from that man, and for good reason."
"What reason is that?"
"Nothing of mine to share but think the worst." Mercedes says making him look off with a sigh. "She even thinks he got her mom setup."
