Her Beef 3: Love & War

Chapter 19

Carlos

I wanted to handle this shit with this nigga Riggz once and for all. I was tired of the power that he had over Shakeya.

I couldn't stand him for what he did to her. Plus the nigga looked like a low budget Nipsy Hussle to me.

I pulled back up on the Ave cause this is where he chilled there he was.

"Why are we here?" Shakeya asked.

You could see she was uncomfortably and that wasn't the woman that I loved.

"You need to handle this once and for all. You won't even come visit your family herd out of fear of running into this dude. I'm right here if you need me." I comforted her.

She got out of the car and I watched every move ready to clap this nigga to sleep if I had too.

Shakeya

Standing here looking at the man that I once loved took me back to a place that I have never revisited.

Riggz was the reason why I dated women for a long period of time. He did something to me that traumatized me for so long.

Before I became the savage beast that you guys know me to be now I was a gently beast.

I would fight if needed, but after that night I became a heartless savage.

Flash Back....

I was home waiting on Riggz to finally show up. He had been gone for a week on a business trip.

While he was gone this girl Amanda showed up on my door step with a two week old baby boy that looked just like my man.

I was pacing back and forth. I drank damn near a whole bottle of Hennessy.

I heard the key in the lock. I heard the lock turn. The door opened and it was like my heart slowed down.

"Key! Baby where you at?" he asked coming through the door.

I was just sitting in the living room trying to talk myself down. I couldn't do it. I was tired of the cheating and lies. I was tired of the bullshit.

He came in the living room and when he saw the look on my face he instantly go defensive.

"What the fuck is wrong wit you?" he asked dropping his bags on the floor.

That mixed with henny sent me into my rant.

"Who the fuck is Amanda Riggz? The bitch showed up here with your fucking son! You let this bitch have your son, but you made me KILL MINES!" I screamed not even realizing I was now in his face.

He just laughed at me. He laughed in my face. I slapped him with all my might.

He spit blood from me busting his lip. He looked at me and that demon I had seen him become so many times appeared.

BOOM! He punched me so hard in the face I saw stars as I hit the floor.

"Bitch are you fucking crazy!" he yelled in my face.

He grabbed me by the hair and dragged me into the bedroom.

I was afraid, but my anger mixed with Hennessy wouldn't let me back down.

I stumbled to get to my feet when he threw me against the bed.

"I am tired of your shit!" I yelled back.

He started rushing towards me, so I jumped across the bed and grabbed the lamp.

I hit him over the head with it. The blood leaked from his head. He looked dazed. He wiped blood from his forehead and licked it off his hand.

Right in that moment I knew I wasn't going to make it out of this room alive.

He pulled out his gun and I dropped to my knees.

"I'm sorry. Please don't kill me." I pleaded with him.

He grabbed me by the hair. "Bitch I am gonna teach you a lesson you will never forget." he said in voice that terrorifed me.

He began to beat me with the handle of his gun. He pistol whooped me. He kicked me in the head, chest, and stomach.

He was beating me so bad I guess at some point I passed out.

Even as I laid there unconscious not moving or fighting back he continued to beat me.

Back to present time...

He left me in that apartment beaten itches away from death. If it hadn't been for Desire finding me I would be dead.

When I woke up I was in the hospital and they told me I had lost my baby.

"Key baby it's good to see you." he said with sacrasm dripping from his voice.

Flash backs of all the beatings he gave me came flooding over me and I snapped.

I pulled out my gun and put two bullets in his head.

I watched his body drop in slow motion and I felt all those years of hurt and fear just left off me.

I got back in the car with the love of my life, the father of my son and we pulled off.

Finally putting that part of my life to rest literally.
