"Gooo get the door like I said Sharee don't play with me!" I yelled from my room.
"Girl shut up!" I heard her out side my door. This little girl really been testing my gansta lately and I ain't having it! Raniece busted in smiling hard. Her stomach look like a little volleyball so cute !
"Girl you look like you got a lil pouch!" I cracked up.
"Shut up!" She sat down on my bed.
"Girl did you wash your ass you know ion like allat." I waved her away.
"Don't ever play with me like that." She started hitting me with a pillow.
"Okaay okay." I laughed.
"Shit I ain't know yal was having a sleep over?" Bucks walked in.
"Boy godamm you ugly." I stood up to dab him up.No wonder his bug mouth ass been ducking ! He know he ugly ass hell.
"Ohh you gone take it straight there." He laughed.
"Nah you family wasp! What's taking you so long to dump Becky?" I laughed jumping straight to the point.
"You told her, her name Becky? Y'all petty." He chuckled.
"You ain't answer my question though." I crossed my legs. Neicey sat back waiting for a answer.
"Because her parents gone do some get out type of shit to me." He laughed. We sat there silently. Neither one of us cracked a smile because he playing and we not.
"Man listen. I already told her everything she just acting like a crazy bitch threatening me,to keep my baby away from me! She due in a couple of months and shit just been rocky lately." He rubbed his forehead aggravated.
"Duh boy! I know you wasn't expecting her to be okay with you fucking another girl and then turning around and getting her pregnant knowing you got a bitch!" I snapped.
"Damn lala." Neicey laughed.
"No offense baby but you know what I'm saying! He acting like a dummy." I shook my head fed up. I got a different type of love for my Bestfriend and I'm not finna sit around and let him play her! Fuck no!
"You right, so what ima do? I gotta be able to see both of my kids at the end of the day."
"I never said anything about taking JR from you!" Niecey stood up heated.
"Girl Jr? You don't even know if it's a boy or not." I busted out laughing.
"It is a boy girl look how far down my stomach sitting." She laughed.
"I can barely tell Neicey." I gave her that now you know face.
"I think we all should sit down and talk. Not you lala but my girls." He folded his arms.
"Your girls? You mean your girl and your ex which is Becky !" I snapped.
"Right." He nodded.
"I don't feel like you want me." Neicey started to cry. Oh lord here we go!
"No no no baby I love you." He kissed her.
"Can y'all go home." I signed.
"No he can go!" Neicey pouted.
"Okay I'll give you yo space but it won't be long!" He walked out.
"That nigga a ass ." I looked over at her.
"Yeah I wish I never got pregnant."she shook her head.
"Don't say that baby! The baby is a blessing ." I rubbed her stomach. Luna came in with reckless loud ass behind her.
"Where Bucks?"
"He has some business to tend to." Reck sat down on my bed.
"Get your stinky ass up!"
"Ight godamn." He got up fast ass hell. He starting to get way too comfortable!
"What yal doing." Luna put her purse down on my sofa then sat on the bed.
"Girl nothing her baby daddy was just over here being a lil hoe." I blurted out.
"Cuz what's the word I been told you I was gone do that to that bitch ass nigga for you." Reckless pulled out his strap.
"Boy put that up lavell and Sharee in there the fuck wrong with you." Luna snapped.
"That's my child's father! I don't need nothing happening to him!" Niecey rolled her eyes.
"Stop trying to protect that nigga! He ain't shit." Reckless shook his head.
"Reck you do too much shut up." I waved him off. Bucks walked in with Quan behind him with a new bitch. Like always. I laughed.
"Quan didn't I tell you the next time I see you I'm beating you." Reck got up.
"Nah bruh not in my nice ass condo!" I stood up!
"Cmon come outside lil bitch ass nigga!" Quan gestured him to come here.
"No!" Luna stood up.
"Sit cho ass down !" Reck yelled at her.
"Chill out yal niggas need to grow the fuck up! Haven't y'all noticed Luna and Neicey pregnant and they wanna hang! Everytime yal niggas see eachother it don't have to always be this godamn." Bucks yelled out.
"Nah fuck that he the reason my daddy dead that nigga need to be in the dirt on some real shit." Reck pulled out his strap.
"Ah ah!" I yelled. My heart started racing. I hate guns! I'm tired of seeing fucked up shit! Guns cause hurt and depression!
"Just fight!" I screamed damn near crying. I looked over at Ranice and Luna. They sat there holding eachother . My hands quivered and my body felt numb. I feel sick in my stomach watching this gun being held up to Quan's face. We might not be the closest but this like a little brother to me! Reck loaded the clip up and aimed the gun. I screamed ducking under the bed with niecey and Luna. This nigga really is crazy ass fuck! I heard the door open then some gun shots. My heart fell out my chest. I stood up looking around.
"Wh-wh."I stuttered to Reckless. He stood over Quan's dead leaking body. Just looking at him.
"You need to go." I shoved him. He snapped into reality then looked back at Luna. She rocked back in fourth staring at Quan's body crying and screaming. Reckless ran out as fast as he could. I ran into the living room to make sure the babies alright. I started screaming when got in the living room. JR's body laid there leaking out. Sharee in a corner shaking and crying. I ran over to her.
"A-are you okay." I held her face up.
She shook her head no and then looked over at JR. I covered her face and carried her out along with lavell who was sitting behind her hiding . Sharee might be young but she is smart! I buckled her into my car and then my put lavell in his car seat.
"Lala!" I heard Thomas behind me.
"I tried to get here a couple minutes before the poilce did, what happened? Who is in that house? Whoever is needs to come out right now you guys need to leave! When they get here they are going to be looking for someone to blame!" Thomas looked at me serious.
"Okay let me go get everybody." I ran in to get everybody hip.
"Aye cmon yal we need to go before the police get here! They gone blame this shit on anybody that's here when they get here cmon." I helped Luna up and bucks helped Neicey up. I sobbed as we walked past JR's body.
"Kentrell gone crash out." Neicey cried when we got outside.
"I know I-I don't know what ima tell him." I cried starting up the car.
"The truth." Bucks gave me a kiss then went to get in his car. I heard sirens and I started up the car immediately. My hands so shaky I can barely control the wheel. Sharee started crying aloud making me weep. JR had so much talent! Now he's gone because of me! It was my house that he was at! What the fuck man. I pulled over on a side street. I saw bucks pull over in my rear view. I looked over at Luna. She cried silently.
"You okay?" I broke the silence. She stared out the window without a word.
"Sharee," I turned to Sharee.
"He my Bestfriend!" She blurted out.
"First granny now him! Why so many people have to die!" She cried.
"It's this city! Once we move everything's gonna be different! I promise." I wiped her tears.
"But I want my JR back." She cried
"Me too."I gave her a hug.
My phone vibrated in my pocket. Kentrell need some answers!
"...."
"Hello."
"Bitch on my son you gone die!" He hung up. I started to cry again. I deserve death! This shit is my fault! I should've never let nobody like reckless around in the first fucking place!
"We gone go to a hotel."
"Who was it kentrell?" Neicey asked.
"Yes." I shook my head in disappointment.
"What he say?" Luna looked over at me dull.
"Ima die." I stared at the road.
"He think that shit was on purpose?" Neicey sat up.
"I don't know I don't care I just gotta get us up out this city real fast." I can't take none of this shit no more! I'm exhausted!
