BLOOD BABY

Chapter 8.5

I have to admit that I never thought this day would have come. The secret that I have been holding on to.... I never thought it wouldn't be exposed.

Truth is that big Haitian Jack was never dead. He actually financed our whole operation and I wasnt man enough to tell Jalil because blood was a greedy muthafucka and he didn't understand the concept of getting money. I tried to teach his ass all of the tricks of the game, but he was focused more on the flashy part of it.

Jack you wrong for this!! I said sternly and calmly. I, of all of all people, know blood got a bad temper.

Jalil was angry. He started shaking.

Blood, you played me?? He was fucked up inside I could see it. I could see the wrath in his face.

Before I could answer he rushed me. Blood caught me with a vicious one to the face. I fought back, but blood was tagging me. I felt blood on my tongue. I knew he was serious then.

Imma kill you blood he said in between punches. 

BOOM. BOOM.

ReeBee fired 2 shots in the air. 

That's fuckboy shit. Yall Betta stop before I bust a cap in y'all asses. She said.

Bravo. Bravo. Bravo... Big Haitian Jack said sarcastically between claps. 

I came here for one reason and that's to make sure that I get my empire back in its entirety.  yall young bloods gotta give me what I came for. Or I'll make sure my daughter bust a cap in both of y'all asses. Now  y'all seem to have me fucked up with some other nigga if y'all think it ain't gonna happen today. 

Nahh blood . You ain't getting shit. I helped build this shit. I made it what it is today. Jalil wasn't backing down. 

As far as I'm concerned all​ of y'all can suck my dick. Yall some pussies. He yelled.

He turned and looked at me.

And you... Blood I can't believe this shit. All you talk about is loyalty. What makes you difference on lil Haitian Jack bitchass?? Huh?? Blood I should kill you.

Come on b. You know you ain't built like that. I mean I saw you do yo shit, but you can't kill me blood. You ain't got it in you. I said not sure if that would push blood over the edge.

Give him the gun ReeBee. Big Haitian Jack pulled out a 357 revolver out his waistband and pointed it at Jalil to make sure Jalil wouldn't try no fuck shit. But the whole time I'm in disbelief. I don't think he'll do it, but blood had murder in his eyes.

ReeBee tossed the gun to him. I watched him slowly lift it to my eye level. 

Blood in, Blood out. He said .. 

BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!!

I threw my hands up to try and block the bullets, but shit truthfully I don't know what the fuck that was going to accomplish. I heard 3 shots and I thought I was dead. But he only shot the wall behind me.

Blood, I can't do it. Blood I hate you, but I can't do it. COME ON Thomas.... BLOOD WE BEEN IN THIS GAME SINCE KIDS BLOOD. WHYYYY??? He looked like he wanted to cry. 

See me and him always talked about betrayal. We spoke of it as treason. We killed all unloyal niggas and bitches. And each time in the back of my mind I knew that my day was coming. 

Well, blood I need to tell you one more thing.... I said.

What the fuck Now blood. ?? He looked like he wanted to yell out FUCK MY LIFE ..

I'm Janelle's... I paused. I thought like do I really wanna tell dis nigga . But with the gun in his hand I had no choice. Blood was a loose canon I'm sure I needed to try anything so blood wouldn't kill me. I figure he couldn't kill family!!

.... Baby's daddy!!! 

Nahhh. Nahhh. Nahhh. You ain't... No... Fuck you.... Blood ...

He started grinding his teeth. It was eating him alive. He started pacing. 

So, blood you mean to tell me that you was fucking my lil CUZZO behind my back. ?? Blood WHAT?? IS THAT WHAT YOU TEELING ME. ??

He walked up on me and pressed he pistol barrel against my jaw.

You deserve to die blood. You lucky I don't blow yo fucking brains out.. ohhh I swear to god blood....

I couldn't do shit. I felt guilty as fuck.

Up until this point Big Haitian Jack never took his 357 off Jalil. I guess since I was confessing shit he felt like he had to let the cat out of the bag as well.

He started laughing.

Blood where my popcorn.?? This shit is funny. You know, as a matter of fact, blood toss the pistol back to ReeBee. 

Jalil looked as if he didn't Want to but looking down the barrel of that Big ass gun Jack had, shit he gave it back.

Young blood , imma tell you right now, that ain't yo baby. Big Haitian Jack looked at me then laughed at me.

I'm standing here confused as shit. 

What the fuck you mean blood. ??

I started to run up on him. I had to stop though because he cocked the hammer back. 

WHAT THE FUCK YOU MEAN??

See it's a long story, but to make it short. I have another secret ... Yall ready for this one?? 

Daddy what are you talking about, ReeBee was just as puzzled as we were. 

You see daughter. Have you ever wondered who your mother was?? 

Big Haitian Jack was comical in his approach to all of this. 

Who's my mother?? ReeBee questioned. 

You ready for this b?? Big Haitian Jack really played this like a game.

Your mother is Dr. Draper.!!!

See Janice Draper was my beautiful side piece back in the day so you know Big Haitian Jack was known for laying down this Creole pipe something proper.!!! I called in a few favors .... 

We all paused for a second. Jalils phone interrupted us.

It was Haitian Jack !!!
