A Hustler's Pride

Part 1

           

He had been in the crack game since he was sixteen and now at thirty two he was the head and tail of an entire operation that ran across the US. He held down 26 states and his brothers Tim and Dre held down the rest. He was sittin amongst his employee's tryin to figure out the weeks plans. Who would be posted where and when to sell, buy, and collect. "Now we've been here long enough. Make sure things go smoothe for me Dre and Tim. And Dre do me a favor and go wake up Giselle for school."

"Ahight."  His daughter's eighteenth birthday was right around the corner and he wanted to take her somewhere nice. He had been thinkin about that as well as the week's plans. His daughter was the only thing he had and he would jeopardize anybody's life to save hers and his. Nobody else mattered but them.

           

Giselle was in her room deep into her sleep underneath her designer bed sheets when Dre came knockin on the door. He opened it slightly and saw that she was still sleepin. He walked in and sat on her bed. "Hey G babygirl it's time to get up." he said shakin her a little until she began to stir.

"Hunh?" She said rubbin her eyes.

"Time for school."

"Ahight." She got up and went in her bathroom to take a shower. Once she was dressed she headed down to the kitchen to get some breakfast. When she didn't see anythin she wanted she went to find her daddy. She found him in the lobby talkin to a tall and handsome young man. The man looked at Giselle and then quickly turned his attention back to his boss who had already warned him about his daughter. "Hey Daddy," she said walkin in to give him a hug.

"Hey baby. What u need?"

"Hey I wanted to go to Chick-fil-a to get somethin to eat."

"Okay." He looked around the room tryin to decide who would take his daughter. He thought about the young man that stood in front of him but he didn't know if he could trust him with his most proud possession. "This is Hova, G. He'll be the one to take u," he said lookin at him dead in his eyes.

"Ahight let me go get my purse," she said runnin back upstairs. Once she was gone Matthew looked at him and spoke very clear.

"Let me tell u somethin young buck. This is my pride and my joy. All these motherf***ers in here know if they even think about crossin that line, they get they ass tore into. And I know u know what line I'm talkin about."

"I got u sir."

"I didn't ask u all that. Watch my baby, man." Matthew handed Hova the keys to his new Benz.

As they drove in silence Giselle couldn't help but to look at him out the corner of her eye. He looked so young and fresh. "So Hova, what's ur real name?" He looked at her and figured she would cause trouble.

"Look i ain't tryna get personal wit u. Ur dad already told me what was up wit u."

"So it gotta get personal cause i wanna know ur name?" She said laughin. He looked at her and saw the dimple that complimented her beautiful smile.

"My name is Hova didn't u hear ur Dad?" She laughed again.

"So I guess ur the rough type hunh? Just tell me ur real name. I won't disrespect it. I just wanna know."

"It's Corey."

"Corey what?"

"Why u askin me all this shit?" He said gettin a little aggravated with her. She continued to smile at his arrogance cause it was makin her real hot and horny.

"I think ur cute; that's why I wanted to know. How old are u?"

"22 and I was born in Brooklyn New York. I lived there most of my life and then i came here to Atlanta to get away from the feds cause they was on my ass. Anythin else?" She laughed again and he was startin to like bein around her but it was installed in him that no one was to touch her. She decided to just leave him alone. After gettin the food, she ate it like she hadn't eaten in days. He watched her from the corner of his eye and laughed inside. Once they got to her school, she gave him a kiss on the cheek and it startled him.

"Give that to my Daddy for me okay? I forgot to give it to him this mornin. Bye," she said gettin out of the car and runnin to a group of girls and guys mixed together. Hova watched her and noticed that she had a nice shape. He woudln't mind diggin in her guts but he reminded himself of the talk he had with Matthew earlier......

"Don't think about doin anything stupid with my daughter. This is my baby. She's the only thing I got left after her mother did what she did," he said holdin a picture up of her when she was only 16.

I drove off and headed back to Matthew's mansion. Lord only knew what would happen to him if he did somethin to his daughter and this car was another story.
