47. Payback
It's been three weeks since the gang got arrested on accounts of murder, money laundering, use/sell of drugs, they were denied bail and their hearing was in two days before the judge decided if they have to take them into trial
" I miss you." Paris sighed laying her head down with the phone between her shoulder and ears
" I'ma be out soon. But I'm straight, you heard from my mama and jasmine"
"Jasmine thinks you went to Miami and your mom came over yesterday. King I hate lying to them" Ever since he got arrested he made her promise not to tell his mama nothing so she didn't have to worry about him
" I know baby just give me a little more time" he sighed staring at her
" okay" she nodded Wiping her eyes on the sleeve of her shirt
" Rashad called me yesterday and agreed to take on your case"
King scoffed shaking his head " Nah. I'm straight I don't need him"
Paris head shot up as she stared at him " what? Why?"
" I don't want your brothers near my case, and that's that" he stared back at her but she wasn't backing down from his stares
" They are trying to help you, what's your issue?"
" I don't got no issue just don't want them niggas around me" he said getting Paris mad.
" to be honest it don't matter what you want. my brother is one of the best lawyers in this county and he ain't never lost a case, now Im going to need you to let go what ever problem y'all got against each other or best believe none of y'all niggas Is going to have me in y'all life" Paris told him grabbing her purse over her shoulders getting ready to leave
" are You threatening me?" King asked amused.
Paris shrugged with a serious face " take it as you want, I'm done being in the middle of y'all, shit is irritating and stressing me out." She stood up from the seat and hanged up the phone and left.
King smiled watching her walk away from him something about her attitude was amusing to him.
Later that day Paris went home and took a hot shower to calm down her nerves, she was irritated, she thought that King should be grateful that her brother wanted to help him.
35 Minutes later she got out the shower and slipped on Kings T-shirt that reached her knees and sat down on her couch watching reruns of sponge-bob til she felled asleep
Two hours later her doorbell rung and she got up and went go open it
" Is everything okay?" She asked letting Scarlett in seeing she had two bags in her hands
" yes" she threw a small smile at her and then gave her the plastic bag " but I need your help"
" with what?" Paris Questioned, looking inside the bag of clothes
" bagging a bitch duh" Scarlett told her as she took off her floral shirt and switched into black shirt and black gym shorts
