Desperado

four.

Donny

I walked into the store and flipped the sign to open. It was supposed to be me this shift, but I'm sure Uncle Pierre would eventually turn up and decide to come in anyways. I rang about two to three customers up and handed out a few coupons. I hear the bell attached to the door ring once again and I begin to say the usual. 

"Hello! Welcome to-" I stop in my tracks as I see Derrick and an unfamiliar face walk into the store. Rolling my eyes, I continue stocking and checking inventory. I see the girl walking with him holding onto his neck and giving him soft passionate kisses on his neck. I saw he had his name tag and uniform on, so I did what I felt was necessary. 

"Here. You can close too." I throw him the keys and clipboard and head back into the break room, grabbing all my belongings. I stuck my phone into my backpack and strapped it onto me. He gave me a confused look and I shrugged it off while pushing open the door and heading to my car. I hear footsteps running up behind me but I continue walking, feeling a bit upset. "Donny, what's up man? Why you acting like somebody killed your fucking puppy?!" I looked at him and shrugged, sticking a wooden toothpick into my mouth. 

"I know damn well your fruity ass not mad over my girl right? What we had was what I like to call an 'experiment'. We both tried it, we know what it's like and now we can act like it never happened." He hung his head in my car as I began to crank up.

"So I guess all that let go talk was bullshit.. Man listen, I shoved away my masculinity and defied my own beliefs because the shit you said sounded so real. You still a rival to my men and you deadass tried to kill me in my own living room. I don't know if this is some type of ploy to seduce me into getting stock or what.." I put my head into my hand and rubbed my forehead for a while.

He looked around and got into my passenger seat disregarding the fact that no one was inside the store. I see him making a quick call to Uncle Pierre about covering his shift and then set his phone aside. My patience was running thin as I saw the lady he was with tapping her foot waiting for him to return. He began to explain how he didn't feel as if the words meant anything and how he simply saw it as being nice and showing hospitality. 

"No offense but maybe you should go check on your lady friend. I'm glad that you didn't feel anything.. Maybe this happened so I could assure myself that I don't have any sexual attractions towards men. I'm glad." I stared at him as he kept an emotionless face. He nods and pulls on one of his braids. "So I'll catch you around?" He flashes a toothy smile and I nod back, grinning slightly. 

"You know.. let's hang out today. Uncle Pierre is covering my shift and my girl probably gonna call her homegirls or something. Let me go tell her I'm gone." He hops out the car and slams the door making me cringe. I watch as he walks in and kisses her goodbye, just as Uncle Pierre walks in sporting a new black fedora. They shake hands and he walks back to the car.

"Where we going cupcake?" The nickname catches my attention and I look over at him furrowing my brows. "Call me that again and I'll have your body laid out in front of this fucking store." He chuckles and lets his seat back making him practically lay down. Well damn... just make yourself at home why don't you. He lays back and pulls out his phone going on Instagram. I see him scroll down his feed and I see a topless model.... Big boobs ?!....... Chile anyways SO !

I let out a small chuckle and proceed to back out of the parking lot. "Okay you never told me where we were going.." I say slamming on brakes. He drops his phone and gives me a death stare. "Nigga.. your crib I guess." I shrug and begin driving back to my place. I'm more than sure Tahya would be there and Aoki. After about five minutes of driving, he gets bored and turns on my radio without permission.

I mean, where the fuck should I really even start?

He starts rapping heavily to 'Money in the Grave' by Drake and Rick Ross. I slowly bop my head as he recites every lyric. He's spitting fast and Rick Ross' part comes on. I quickly switch to my aux and put on a song that I knew would attack him.

Lookin Ass by Nicki Minaj began playing and he turned his head, screaming because I turned off his song.

"Look at y'all bitch ass niggas, stop lying on ya dick ass niggas.." I listen to the song and look at Derrick with a serious face. He looked around and started rubbing his temple.

"I ain't gotta check for y'all, but if imma check for y'all, I'ma need a check from y'all niggas.. I don't want sex give a fuck about your ex, I don't even want a text from y'all niggas.." I flicked my tongue and laughed a bit. He moved uncomfortably in his seat and coughed a bit. "Damn Donny, I didn't know you was coming like that..." I begin to smile and laugh a little bit at the compliment.

"Damn you're coming as a fucking bottom. Jesus how did nobody know you weren't gay.. Damn you're soft as hell.." My smile turned into a frown and I begin to get a lil upset. "Yeah fun's over..." I turn the radio off and pull into the driveway sighing. He punches me in the ribs to lighten up the mood but I still wasn't budging. 

Before I unlock the doors, I give him a quick speech on my house rules and how my sister and girlfriend would be home so he would have to tread lightly. He nods and before I get out, he grabs my face and plants a wet kiss onto my forehead. "Homies for life nigga." I wipe his nasty ass slob off my forehead and get out the car.

Unlocking the door, I see Aoki standing in the door frame. "What's up sis.. This is my friend Derrick. Derrick this is my sister Aoki." She smiles and gives him a quick handshake. "Tahya this is-" I'm cut off by Derrick yelling her name.

"TAHYA ?! IS THAT YOU? IT'S BEEN SO LONG!" They run up on each other and she jumps into his arms, hugging him.

Wait a minute... How the fuck do they know each other...
