Chapter 21

Tyrese -

"I'm sorry about the other day when T went off on you she crazy," I chuckled as I cut into my steak. After we closed the book deal, I caught up with Norma and we went out to Outback for lunch. I was beginning to like Norma, she a cool person to talk to. "It's okay I understand, I'm the same way when it comes to my husband," Norma said as she ate some of her salad.

"Yeah, so Are you excited about your new venture with Kanye's company," I asked as I sipped my wine. "Yeah, I'm thinking about going into modeling though," she said. "Word I think you would be great in that," I said. "Awe thanks Tyrese, so why did you really give up your music? Because your black rose album was amazing," she said.

"Thanks, and I gave it up because T got pregnant with the twins, I kinda didn't wanna be on tour and all that while she was pregnant, so I also had an some stuff going on with Rev Run, we writing a part two to our book, on top of that I got my black rose book, and then the tv show on own net work, so it's not like I'm leaving or nothing just doing here and there's I still wanna work cause the minute I quit the media gone swear I'm eating off Taraji," I said.

"Yeah they don't play, they make their stories quick," she said. "Ikr," I replied. After we finished eating we walked and laughed and talked. I liked Norma's vibe. She's really nice, I don't know Taraji be tripping. Once we were finished me and Norma went our separate ways. When I got home T was laying in bed with the twins eating cheese and crackers. "Hey baby," I said as I kissed her forehead and took a piece of cheese. "Hey boo, how was your day?" She asked. "It was good," I said as I started taking off my clothes. "What you do today?" She asked. "We finally closed the book deal, not my book but Me and Rev Run, then I went to lunch," I said.

"With who?" She snapped. "Norma," I replied. "Tyrese why the fuck you going with out with that bitch?" She said as she jumped up. "Why you going out with Adam?" I asked. "I didn't go out with Adam, he tagged along for your information Tyrese, I don't get you you didn't want me hanging with Hill and now I don't want you hanging with Norma and you still wanna fuck with her really?"

"Baby please don't start I'm not in the fucking mood man," I said as I plopped down in the bed. I grabbed Shayla off her lap. "Whatever you say Tyrese," she mumbled. "Why yo mama tripping princess huh?" Taraji smacked my ass in the head. "Man keep yo hands to yo self!" I yelled back. "Whatever Tyrese,"

"Give me my son," I said as I reached for Marcel. She placed him in my arms I kissed his forehead. I played with the twins until they both drifted off to sleep. I placed them in their bassinets, and then i drifted off to sleep.

Taraji -

I didn't fucking trust that Norma bitch, I knew she was up to something, I could feel it. I hated the fact that Tyrese didn't see the game she was running. I hoped like hell he wasn't trying to get back at me, even though I felt like he was. I got up and walked over to the dresser and grabbed his phone. To my surprise he had a password. Tyrese never put a password on his phone. I tried to guess and each password I put in was wrong. Tired of guessing I put his phone back down and got back in bed. I looked over at Tyrese and sighed. I loved this man so much, but I was starting to have trust issues.

*******

The next morning when I woke up, I took a shower, and then I gave the twins their baths. I changed their diapers, and then went to fix their bottles. I had chief to go home today, because I felt like cooking. I decided to make some cheesy grits, sausage, and eggs for breakfast.

I fed the twins, and burped them both. The I fixed my plate and set them up in their swing in the living room. I grabbed the remote and turned to Law and Order SUV since nothing else was on. I grabbed my phone and smiled and the morning text that Adam sent me. I didn't bother to text back. I didn't want to get caught up in anything, especially if I was going to accuse Tyrese of the same thing. Just as I got done eating Ty came down stairs dressed in some jeans and a hoodie. "Hey," he said dryly. "Hey I thought you didn't have to go no where today?" I asked. "Yeah something came up," he said as he grabbed his suit case.

"Norma?" I asked. I turned around looked at me and shook his head. He walked into the kitchen and I followed him. "You ain't answer me Tyrese," I said as I walked to the stove with him. I folded my arms and looked up at him. He didn't budge. "So you ignoring me?" I asked. "Yeah man cause you tripping, ain't shit going on with me and her, she married, " I said. "And your in a relationship," I said. "Am I?" He asked. "Wow Tyrese, you know what, no your not," I said as I walked back into the living room. I plopped down on the couch and sent Adam a text. Shit just like Vivica Fox, two can play that game.
