Thug Love 3: Hold You Down

Chapter 3

After putting the triplets to bed I called up Jasmine and asked her to come over. She agreed and I unlocked the door for her. About time she made it over I was in a sports bra and my yoga pants.

"Hey bestfriend" she says cheesing.

I smile at her. "Hey bestfriend to you too" I say. She laughs and we go out to the back yard with our bottle of wine and chocolates.

"What you been up to?" I ask. She sighs then begins.

"Girl the same old...Quad been talking bout moving out of Buckhead and Jared cant stay out of trouble.Those damn bloods been threatning Jared also....What about you girl?" she says says and ask me in one sentence.

I take a sip of my wine and begin

"Those triplets are crazy, Mariah wakes up alot crying out for Kasen. I miss him soo much, His court date next week and if that goes well he will be released in 3 weeks. Im just praying the judge show mercy on him. The drug game good, I made alot of money today but I miss having Hazel,Justin and Kasen around. Tahiem comes over alot..just so im not alone but its not the same, I miss my husband" I say catching my breathe.

Jasmine nods her head. "Baby girl your strong I couldnt do half the stuff you doing....your a true ride or die Kasen gone treat you extra special when he get out just wait on it baby girl" she says smiling.

I take a bite of my chocolate and smile. Its been 3 years since I touched him. I just couldnt wait.

My thoughts were interuppted by a loud cry from the house. I sigh cause I already know who it is.

I make my way upstairs and frown.
Mariah is having one of her melt downs. I try to shush her but it doesnt do anything. Thats when I decide to do the next best thing. I grabbed her out her princess bed and took her into my room. I got Kasen's black beanie out his dresser and gave it to her. She took it from me and started sucking on her finger.

"You okay now?" I ask her.

She takes her thumb out her mouth and replies. "Can I schleep with you tonight?"

I nod and sing to her as she falls back asleep.

When she finally falls asleep I give her a soft kiss on the forehead and make my way downstairs.

Jasmine was still in the recline chair when I came outside. She had finished her wine and was looking off into space.

"Jasmine" I say waving my hands in her face.

She jerked forward and then looked at me.

"Sorry hun I just got to thinking" she said.

"About what?" I ask.

"Its just weird how Jared's attitude towards life has changed....he doesnt wanna do anything but be in the streets...I always argue with him about it" she says.

I shrug. "Send him over tomorrow I will talk to him. Then he can video chat with me and Hazel she hasnt seen my hair yet, I wonder how she will react" I say.

Jasmine looks at me. "to be ya age you look young Dezmond...your daughter might not notice you, why pink?" she says.

I didnt really have an answer. Pink was just a color I liked. Im me doee nobodies changing it.

Me and Jasmine talked for what seemed like hours before I walked her back across the street. We shared a quick hug.

"Bye bestfriend, Dont forget the triplets birthday in 4 weeks" I say.

She says okay and walks in the house. I walk back into my house lock the door and cut on the alarm. I then cut all the lights off and make my way up the stairs and into my room. Mariah is holding on to Kasen's beanie like her life depended on it. I slipped in next to her and closed my eyes letting darkness take over.
