Chapter 124

"So wait, when was the last time you spoke to Nicki?" Tae asked with a frown. Drake looked up from his plate.

"I don't, I haven't spoken to her in months, since last year actually." Drake shrugged his shoulders. There was truly nothing he could do about Nicki and his situation. Tae frowned at him with wide eyes, in disbelief. "She doesn't speak to me for obvious reasons, she choice a side, which is fine with me, she loves him and will stick by his side. That's her man, that's what she chose. I do miss her and I love her very much, I wish her nothing but the best, peace and happiness, but I can't dwell on that, nor will I beg her to say hi to me."

Tae looked sadly at Drake as he turned his head and began eating again. When Drake said things were making him meaner he meant that he was no longer putting his pride aside to make other people happy. Meek attacked him and even though he was close to Nicki, he refused to let Meek continue running his name through the mud. He refused to let the situation go unspoken on his end. Nicki made a decision and she picked to not speak to him anymore.

"I'm at a point in my life now where I'm down to cut ties with anybody and everything that's not useful. If I can't fix the situation or if I don't have control over the situation I will remove myself from the situation. I'm no longer taking care of people. I'm done. People who have grown up with me, walked these very streets with me 15 years ago are now attacking me, trying to benefit from my name or people in my camp. I can't piggyback for people. I won't. If Nicki wants to run around with a nigga like that then that's on her. That's a situation I have no control over, so I cut it loose. No love lost."

The amount of control Drake had on his career had officially reached the status of his mentors. Jay-Z and Kanye. Not only was his popularity on that platform but his power was now up there as well. People moved on his say so, and he dropped people at the snap of the fingers. He saw the benefit of something, if he liked it he acted on it, if not he moved on. He was now that popular and powerful in Pop culture and generations to pass deals up. His conversation with Chubbs helped him realize how high his thrown actually sat.

Tae chewed the inside of her cheek and laid her fork down on her plate. "I'm sorry." She said quietly.

Drake turned his head and looked at her, his thick eyebrows frowned. "Why you apologizing? What are you sorry for?"

"People are treating you this way, attacking you."

Drake shrugged and looked back at his plate. "It comes with the territory. This is just how I'm handling people from now on, but the way people are treating me doesn't justify what I did and how I treated you, do you understand?" He looked back over to her with a very serious face, not a crack of a smile showed, the muscles in his jaw flexed as he chewed his food and swallowed. Tae was silent, very silent as she looked back at him. She nodded her head yes. "Say it."

"Yes." She didn't hesitate.

Tae eyed Drake sexually as she sat next to him in the passenger side her hand rested in his. He kept his eyes on the road, staying focused due to the weather conditions, though it wasn't snowing or blurry, snow and black ice covered parts of the road. He pulled into the underground car lot and stepped out the drivers side, he leaned back in and grabbed the big to go bag that carried leftovers and the food he got for 40. He walked around to the passenger side and opened the door. Tae stood up but didn't move out of the way of the door, she pulled on his thick coat making his body come closer to her.

Drake smiled but frowned at the same time, his lips smashed into hers, she pushed his mouth open with her tongue. "Where is this coming from?" He asked with his eyes closed, it was so cold his breathe could be seen in the air as he spoke. Tae pulled from his mouth and began kissing on his neck. She reached down and rubbed the length of his dick, she looked up at him, watching his mouth slightly open, she then grabbed it.
