It was about 8:50 almost going on 9 when we finally pulled up next to Cheetahs. I knew exactly what I was looking for a black on black range rover with costumed made rims with spikes on them.
"You see him yet Shonda?" I asked
"Naw maybe he's parked in the back by the dumpsters" she said
So we made our way to the back and what'll you know he's parked back there with fogged up windows. I parked my car a couple feet away from him and flashed my headlights about three times to let him know it was us then finally two minutes later he finally rolls down his window and signaled us to come. Now pause I know what you're thinking "why is she getting in her Exes car while her boyfriend is layed up in the hospital?" I know Erik has something important to tell me containing to the incident with my brother and boyfriend and I'm ready to hear his half of the story. And trust me I'm not trying to get caught running to Eriks car at 9pm it's bad enough he's my ex that was dealing drugs with my current boyfriend but it'll be a motherfucka if someone from the hood seen me jump in his whip the streets talk, alot.
Anyway.
Me and Shonda hurried to car and i stopped running when I heard a loud scream, Shonda had already shut her door but I stayed out for a few seconds not to be nosey but because the scream that belonged to that girl sound too familiar.
"Aahhhh I'm sorry I'm sorry I promise I'll get your money back!!!" She screamed.
PUNCH SLAP SLAP!
"Bitch where the fuck is money from last night at that private party?!"
"I had to buy my son his meds and pay the rent I'm sorry!" She yelled again
"I don't give a fuck that lil motherfucka should've died months ago around here tryna help him I want my fuckin money!!" Her pimp yelled.
"Ok ok I'll get it back by tonight" she yelled limping inside the club
I could tell she was a stripper by the way she was dressed walking inside the club but I still couldn't get over her scream it was like I personally knew the girl but I couldn't see her face cause her back was faced towards me
"What the fuck you lookin at bitch!" He yelled looking straight at me.
I hurried and got in the car cause I didn't want anymore trouble to happen and as I'm sitting down Erik jumps out the car and lifts up his shirt to the pimp.
"Aye playa you betta watch who the fuck you talkin to like that dawg" he yelled showing off his pistol and gettin back in the car.
"Erik If you did all that cause he said that to me why you ain't do that when he was beating up on that young girl?" I asked
"Cause she dealing with him not you , she had chance like everybody else she chose to go down that road, that's the stripper life down here" he answered
"Ok whatever, what's up what you want?"
"Dang chill with the attitude , I need to talk to you about your brother and Jason" he said
"What about them? Cause right about now I'm wondering why the fuck you the only one not laying up in the hospital bed and it was the three of y'all"
"I know I know let me explain"
"Why should I? I shouldn't even be sitting here in your car talking to you for all I know you probably the one who set that up!" I shouted as I opened the door to leave
"You should let me explain cause I know who did it and they set it all up to put the blame on me"
I stopped and looked back at him, "what?" I said putting my one leg back in the car.
"I think I know who did cause it all made sense at the end" he said lookin like he was about to tear up
"What? So you know exactly who did it?" I asked
"Not exactly, but when we were up In west palm I hit up my cousin bird bout some money she was supposed to give to me to flip and the car was about to break down so I stopped by the nearest gas station to fill it up and I told her that she might as well meet me there before I leave and next thing you know an all black car pulls up and starts spraying up the car while Jason and Terehl were in there"
"So this bird person must've been wanted a hit out on y'all if she went through all that to kill y'all especially you being her cousin" I said
"I don't know but I gotta get to the bottom of this ASAP cause if I don't my ass lookin at 15 to life"
"So if this person is after you why would they come after Jason and my brother?" I asked
"That's the thing I'm assuming she's after Jason and she's not by herself"
"So what you saying?" I asked staring dead at him
"Her and Jason had a lil thang going on cause I used to see her at the trap house everyday until he completely cut her off" he said
"Your cousin and Jason?"
"Yea this was before y'all started messing with each other"
"Umm" I said not knowing he knew
"Yea I know I peeped game on y'all " he said laughing
"Ok ok so what happened?" I asked curiously
"I don't too much know the whole story but I heard she was stealing nickel bags and coke from them when she used to hang around the trap all day, Jason found out and threatened that if she ever came back he'll get rid of her"
"Ok that's it he cut her off cause she was stealing is totally irrelevant due to the fact that she tried to kill y'all"
"She was crazy over she stalked the man every night after he closed up the trap house which is why he had to move to a different condo even I don't know where it is, the bitch left crazy ass voicemails and text messages in his phone saying how he'll never move on and the next chick he tries to get with she'll kill her " he said
"Well how do you know all of that?"
"He told us duhh, but he just doesn't know she's my cousin" he said rubbing his chin
"this is why I told you not to go straight home she's my cousin I've seen what she can do and I'm pretty sure right about now she knows you're dealing with Jason and she might be after you"
While Erik was talking I couldn't help but think, 'why does he care so much? It isn't like him usually he's the jealous type and would try to cock block any other relationship I had goin on but this time he's trying to help me out .'
"Why do you care so much?" I asked cutting him off
"Cause the bitch tried to kill me and paybacks a motherfucka, so consider us the motherfuckas" he said looking at both me and Shonda
"trust me sometimes family ain't everything"
"So what now how you gone handle this?" I asked
"Don't worry ima have something planned out we just gotta take out the bigger person though"
"And who is that?"
"Jeff"
