I felt a tongue drag across my cheek, waking me up.
"Who's that?" I asked, and readjusted her so that she could be comfortable. "Is that Nem?"
She breathed hard against my face and I laid her down beside me.
I took that as a yes.
She whined until I put the blankets over us and pulled her up against my bare chest.
She gurgled and cooed while staring at me with glossed over eyes.
"I'm quite the sight, right?"
Khass came out of the bathroom in a purple towel. "Rakim, we need to be out the door in an hour"
I closed my eyes. "Huh?"
"You, me, and Nemiah. We have a meeting at the club"
/Incase you forgot, Khassidy and Rakim opened a strip club/
"What I gotta go for? The strip club is all you. I invested in you" I said.
She looked around for something to throw at me, and I got out of the bed with Nemiah.
Nem looked at me and made a noise.
"Yeah, my stripper a whole fool out here. What can we do though?"
"Ah"
"That's right. Not a damn thing"
-
I grabbed onto Blue Bonnet Lady's shirt and pulled her up the stairs, through the front door, and into the living room.
I pushed her down infront of Myra and Rich's feet.
"This is your trash"
Nemiah leaned forward on Myra's lap, being nosy.
Rich snatched the cloth bag off of her head.
Nemiah started to cry instantly, and reached for me.
"I brought her ass here because she threatening the mother of my kids with fucking knives and scaring my children. The next time you try to force us together, I promise that all the built up anger that I have towards her is gonna come out, and I'm killing her. She's not welcome around the family that I started. I don't want the abusive bitch around me, and fuck what you gotta say about it"
"Can we atleast-"
"The fuck you want a damn drug addict around my babies for anyways? You don't want her around Raven, do you?" I waited a second. "Alright then"
Nemiah grew frustrated with me because I hadn't left yet, and she hit me in the face with her little hand.
I pretended to bite it and walked out of the living room, up to Raven's room.
"Don't be jealous, she's my sister" I kissed her face.
I knocked on the door and Raven told me to come in.
She was painting her nails at her little tea table.
"Rockyyy!!!" Raven got up and hugged my leg.
I picked her up.
Nemiah turned to me, and gave me a look like I killed her father.
She started full on wailing in my face, and I put Raven down.
"She's jealous of me and other kids" I told Raven.
"I'm not a kid" Raven informed.
"What are you?" I smirked.
"I'm a big kid"
"Uh huh. Prove it"
"I was in my room minding my own business like big kids do"
I laughed at my little sister. "You're an only child. Why are you like this?"
"I'm not an only child, Rocky!"
Nemiah screamed at her.
"You might as well be. I'm not around" I turned my baby towards me and showered her with kisses.
Nem calmed down and poked her lip out.
"My wealthy child is in distress" I said to Nem. "Do you want to go see my stripper?"
I nodded, and she copied me, nodding too.
"Bye Rocky"
"Bye Raven"
-
"Hoodrat, hoodrat. Nigga, Imma hood rat" I loaded bullets.
"What you doing here?" Moonie asked me.
"What you asking me what I'm doing here?"
"I don't know"
"I'm mad at Rich, and I need to do something to piss him off"
"You're going to piss Rich off?"
I turned and looked at him. "YES" I stressed my syllables just like he had done. "He can't kill me because step-mommy dearest loves me too much"
"Well what are you gonna do?"
I stood up and turned the gun towards Moonie, smiling. "Show me the safe"
"Are you serious?"
"No hard feelings. You wouldn't have taken me seriously if I hadn't threatened your life. I'll transfer you some money, and I won't say shit. Now step."
"That's cold, Rakim" Moonie showed me out anyways.
"It's only cold outside"
And on my wrist.
It got quiet once I stepped out behind Moonie.
Some dummy had the nerve to point a gun at me.
Somebody else mumbled for him to put it away.
I already walked up to him. "What?"
He lowered it.
I shot him in the leg to prove a point.
It was an angled shot, so it didn't do much besides graze the fuck out of him.
I cleared my throat, and got up on the coffee table. "INCASE Y'ALL FUCKING BAGGERS FORGOT, THIS SHIT WAS M-I-N-E. I'M HERE TO GET MY SHIT BACK, SO GO AHEAD AND LOAD IT UP AND PUT IT IN THE U-HAUL. AND WHEN YOU SEE THAT NIGGA RICH, TELL HIM THAT RAKIM SAID FUCK HIM AND HIS SHIT"
I stepped down. "And the next person that points a gun at me is getting killed. And if you kill me, then Rich is going to kill you. Somebody better tell these kids not to act out their damn ass. Y'all dirty mothafuckas already digging in them"
