Don't Judge the Thug

Get used to this

After I met my daughter I hung out with her till she went back to sleep. I got back to the hotel around two I'm the a.m and I told Alicia I was coming back tomorrow. I woke up to the smell of food and thought Elle was here for a second.

"The hell is wrong with you mumbling shit in your sleep?" Ju says stuffing food in his mouth. "And why you came in at almost three in the a.m?"

"Damn, I would've thought Elle was here the way you got this shit smelling and you talking to me. You ain't get no jiggas yesterday? You straight?" I laughed

"Shut up nigga. This coming from the nigga who smelling like baby powder, you got some-"

"I saw Alicia."

"Alicia, Alicia? Alicia Carter, Alicia?" He almost choked.

"Yeah nigga," I got upset. "And look what she shows me."

I unlock my phone and go to my pictures pulling up the picture of me and Latrese from last night. I threw my phone and he caught it. He looked at it and his eyes shot open. "She had a baby with your mother?" I busted out laughing. He's a dumb ass. "Nah, why the fuck the baby look like Aunt Lisa and Janaia?"

"That's my daughter," I sigh and lay back in the bed.

"You got a daughter this big and you ain't put a nigga on?" He shot back.

"I just found out you dip shit." I shake my head.

"Ooh, she just told you.. That's fucked up," he shook his head. "But damn no need for a test, you can't deny this if you wanted."

"I know man, but how the hell do I tell Elle? And how the hell do I tell my moms something like that? This shit is crazy man."

"You want some?" Ju offers the weed he was rolling.

"Nah man, I'm going to see my daughter later." Ju laughs.

"You love Alicia?"

"Hell no, I been lost feelings for her," I said straight faced. "Alicia look good still but nah I ain't fucking with her no more. She nothing but a baby moms now."

"So what y'all gonna do? You in Brooklyn and she all the way in LA." Ju says.

"I don't know right now but I'm taking her back with us tonight. I deserve to know my daughter and she deserves to know her pops."

"So what about the game? Alicia gonna be cool with you bringing her around this life?"

"Honestly, I don't care about what Alicia says. That's her mother but at the end of the day I'm the parent that got left outta shit. So I'm taking her to Brooklyn for a while and I'll bring her back whenever. Shit, we just gotta talk."

"I feel you, go talk to her then."

"I'm Bouta head over there now." I say. "Tell Cole, Bugs, and Las we going home tonight."

"Damn, I'm tryna stay away from moody ass Rina." He sucked his teeth.

"Yo get another job. And you got all the get away you need," I say laughing.

"You right, ima do that. But I wanna see my niece."

I nodded and stood up. "I'm getting in the shower. Get ready in YOUR room, and we'll go at twelve."

"Ain't nobody getting comfortable in your room nigga. Stop tryna call me a fish nigga. No Auntie mon fi dem." His moms side is west Indian. He threw a bag of food at me. "The hoe Cole was with yesterday bought some food. Don't worry, I got Bugs to check and see if shit was okay."

When we say Bugs was crazy, we meant it. This nigga could detect poison, or any type of mixed crazy drugs in all types of shit.

I nodded and Ju left. Damn, I really have a daughter. A little me. I hope this don't throw off my relationship with Elle. Cuz I'm a family first man, and I'd hate to have to choose.
