A Hustler's Pride

Part 8

           

Hova backed us as Giselle jumped down from the sink. "What are ya'll doin Giselle?"

"Please don't tell my Daddy," Giselle said tryin to plead with Michelle. Michelle sighed and looked around the corner to see if Matthew was comin.

"U guys know if Matthew catches ya'll he'll kill u and Giselle it'll be def over for u, baby."

"But...I can't stop lovin somebody because my Dad is over protective."

"Giselle we can talk later but I want ya'll to please keep that shit on the low because I don't want Matthew actin any more crazy than he already is." She walked out and Hova looked at Giselle smilin.

Everybody packed their stuff and got ready to leave. There had to be one van alone to get all Giselle's things.

           

When Giselle came down her father was waitin just for her. "Look when we get back home, ur mama is gone be comin around a lot more. She says that she misses bein a part of ur life."

"Daddy-" She began to whine but he cut her off wit his finger.

"No,no. That's all," he said walkin away from her and gettin in the car.

When they arrived back in the states Giselle went straight up to her room to lay down. Her mother knocked on the door but Giselle didn't answer. She knocked again and Giselle went into the bathroom and locked the door. She heard her bedroom door open and she flipped out. She snatched her bathroom door open and saw her mother sittin there like a ghost. "Why are u up here? Why are u here period?"

"G-"

"Only my Daddy calls me that. I'on know u like that so I would appreciate it if u called me by the name that u gave me." Giselle stood with her arms folded and waited on her mother to say somethin smart so that she could charge her.

"Look Giselle I am still ur mother. I just wanna talk to u."

"What does u bein the one that birthed me have to do with anythin? U aren't my mother. These hoes my Daddy been bringin in here have been more motherly than u. What made u decided to come back? U heard about the new business deal my Daddy made and u comin back to get a piece of the rock- i mean pie?" Tina stood up and couldn't believe how her daughter was bein so evil towards her.

"I really do love u Giselle and I'm sorry that I've hurt u all this time but it's only so long that I'll let u keep disrespectin me."

"What are u gonna do about me disrespectin u? Are u gonna hit me? My Daddy already slapped me across the face for yo ass so u should be proud that ur back to ruinin my life."

"I DIDN'T RUIN UR LIFE!!!" Tina said with tears in her eyes.

"Yes u did! U think u can show up almost 12 years after u disappeared and think I'm not gonna say nothin about the shit? Ur sadly mistaken. Me and my Daddy don't need u. He got enough hoes in his life." Tina had had about enough. She charged Giselle and pushed her to the ground. Giselle springed back up and began punchin and hittin her mom while she tried to block. " I HATE U B8TCH! HOW DARE U! HOW DARE U!" Matthew along with Hova and two members of the security team came up to see what the commotion was about. They pulled the two women apart and Giselle was still cryin and cussin. "F8CK U! I HATE U B8TCH! U AIN'T SHIT TO ME! LET ME GO!" She said snatchin away from the seurity and runnin down the steps.

"WTF did u do, Tina!" Matthew said leavin the room to run after Giselle. She was already out the door. "Giselle!" Matthew caught up wit her and stopped her. she was so upset. Deep inside she loved her mother and she wanted to build a relationship with her but she had a grudge against her that she couldn't let go.

"I hate her," she whined as her Daddy tried to calm her down. She cried into his chest. "Why is she tryna hurt me?"

"Baby what happened?"

"She hit me!"

"Why!?" This angered Matthew. "Did u hit her first?"

"No! She pushed me to the ground and I jumped up and hit her ass. She can't be touchin me like that."

"Okay," MAtthew said wipin her tears. "Let's go handle this." They walked back into the house to find Tina sittin on the livin room couch. She jumped up to apologize.

"Giselle babygirl I am so sorry that I've hurt u. Please forgive me."

"Tina u have no right comin in my house and destroyin what I built here. I won't let u do this again. This is over right here and now. Giselle doesn't wanna talk to u and u need to understand that and u have no right to be puttin ur hands on my daughter."

"That's my daughter too Matthew!"

"Since when."

"I gave life to her. I almost died on that table because of her."

"And so what? U didn't. U gave life to her but I'm raisin her."

"And u ain't doin a good job. Look at how she dresses and curses. She ain't nothin but a ghetto hoodrat."

"What!" Giselle said lookin at her and then to her Dad.

"And that's exactly what i mean Tina. U need to raise up outta my house before i do somethin stupid. I ain't time to be goin to jail over u no more. That chapter is over with. I'm takin care of MY daughter somethin u've never done. That's all u can say is that u gave birth. What else u done? Shit, that's what. Now get the f8ck outta my house." Tina looked at Matthew and felt so angry that they wouldn't even give her a chance to explain herself for the past she lived. She nodded her head and walked out of the door with her head down. She looked at Giselle once more before she left and blew a kiss to her.

"I still love u Giselle."

Durin the next few weeks, Giselle and Hova began to get real close. Half the time she spent woke was bein with Hova. They would go out places while Giselle told her Dad that she was hangin out wit Kelis who didn't even have a clue that her and Hova were together. While they were hangin out and havin fun a member of the security team named Trey had been on to them. He once saw them kissin while they were out gettin ice cream. He hadn't said anythin to anybody but he thought about how since Hova had been workin for Matthew he was gettin all the attention and makin much more dough than he was and he didn't think there was a reason that Hova was better than him. He decided to just confront Hova and ask him about it but when he didn't get the answer he wanted he just told Matthew. "What makes u come and tell me this info?"

"Sir I didn't think that it would be right for me to come in ur house knowin that I knew vital information and I didn't tell u." Matthew looked into the man's eyes and doubted that what he was sayin was true.

"Okay well....if u can get me some proof then maybe we can talk about it."

"Sir I have proof."

"Okay," Matthew said laughin as Trey pulled out the pics that he had.

"I took these while we was on the trip and this one was from the other day." Matthew said at the pics in disbelief.

           

Matthew placed the pics back down on the table and got up to think about what he could do for this man comin in his house lyin to his face about messin around wit his daughter. "Okay. Okay. I can't believe he had to balls and audacity to lie to my face. But it's ahight. This motherfucka wanna play tough, then let's play."
