Chapter Eighteen

Santana

Once I hung up with Tokyo I went back into the bedroom with Nadia and she burst out laughing.

"Where you at? I been calling you?" she mimicked me.

I grabbed a pillow closest to me and smiled. "You got jokes huh?" I asked and threw the pillow at her, which made her laugh even harder. I stood there admiring her. She was just that hypnotizing. It was another reason why I looked at my daughter and was so happy with what I made. She resembled her mother so much that I knew that Nymeria was going to be having all these little boys around her once she got older. But they had to come through a nigga like me first.

"I mean you were yelling at wifey like you want to know where she at every minute of the day," She said. "She'll come back unless she's cheating on you."

I got in bed to lay next to her. "Which she is," I added.

I had some dirt on Tokyo just like she had a few things about me. I had ears and eyes in the streets so they all knew who she affiliated herself with. I never talked about it because it was a matter of time before her ass was going to get caught red handed.

"And you know how?" she asked.

"She got a place in Aventura with some other person. I mean I already could tell she was fucking around. It's kind of obvious. Plus her ass hasn't been working for three years which she tried covering up horribly. I just let her cover lie after lie."

"Which you do why?"

"'Cause she's too deep in my game to let go. She could go out and fuck the enemy and tell him every damn thing or go to the cops."

She shook her head in disappointment. "You know you can't just hold her prisoner."

"Understood," I said.

"Y'all one lying ass couple."

I looked at her and shook my head. No, her lies and my lies were two totally different things. "The only thing I lied about was you and Nymeria. That's my personal business. I ain't ever cheat on her with any other woman except for you. So what can I say?"

Nadia shrugged.

"And I'm coming to my senses in everything after what happened last night. I got to change."

Just the thought of seeing my dawg Mic and Fredo gone it was really hard to say that I couldn't live everyday like it was my last. Especially after telling Mic's wife that he passed. She was heartbroken. That was the only man she had in her life and now she had to go on without him. Just to see her like that I promised to pay for the funeral, even though we didn't know where both Fredo and Mic's bodies were. It was the fact that she never got to say goodbye. I didn't want that to happen to me. I knew that Nadia was going to be heartbroken that I was gone and it was going to be an even worse experience to have Nymeria grow up without that special man in her life. Then there was the fact that Nadia was pregnant with my second child. I had to straighten up.

"Baby number two got you thinking huh?" she asked.

I cracked a smile. "Baby number two, baby number one, and me trying to be serious with relationships."

"Something that you seem to suck at. You just don't know what you want."

"You are wrong right there. I know what I want. Do you know how hard it is to break up a relationship that has been in the works for seven years?"
