King Pin Wifeys VOL 1

Chapter 37

Jada was surprised to see Lani on her doorstep. She hugged her and gave an air kiss before inviting her in. “What’s going on? Haven’t heard from you in a while.”

“Where do I begin?”

“Begin wherever you wanna. I got time.”

“Black, my ex, got shot a couple of nights ago, and he’s not doing too well.”

Jada said, “Damn, I always liked Black. I thought you were too good for him, but he was a good dude. I hope he’s going to be okay.”

“It’s looking pretty damn bad right now, but if it’s anybody who can pull though, it’s him.”

“My prayers are with him. What else is new?”

“Starr and Trey went to jail yesterday, and they’re still in jail.”

“What? Why?”

“Yeah, I don’t know exactly what happened. I got a call from Starr’s sister, Meeka, asking me what happened? The police raided their house this morning. I don’t know if they got drugs or money or what. Nobody knows anything right now.”

Jada wondered if Shamari knew this. She would have to tell him. The last thing he needed was to get caught up in some more shit. She would tell him when he came back home.

Lani was silent for a moment, and then she said. “I hope everything is okay with Starr.”

Jada didn’t respond. She could care less what happened to Starr, but she knew that Trey was going to help Shamari out, so she hoped it was nothing serious.

Jada led Lani into the kitchen, where they sat at the bar. Jada passed Lani a glass of lemonade and then asked. “So, what do youknow about Black getting shot?”

“What makes you think I know something?”

“Well, Chris got robbed a few weeks ago, and now this.”

Lani said, “You and Starr know me so goddamn well.” She sipped her lemonade then said, “Chris had Black shot.”

“What the fuck?”

“Black started the bullshit.” Lani took a swig and said, “He had Chris robbed.”

“Why?”

Lani shrugged. “Who the fuck knows? This shit is childish to me. You know how niggas can be. I think Black knows Chris has just as much money as he does, and his ego got in the way. He wants to take what Chris has.”

Jada said, “You know damn well all this is about you. Why don’t you just admit it?”

“Maybe it started out about me, but not anymore. They both are so goddamn childish.”

Jada said, “Ain’t nothing childish about gunshots fired and somebody almost getting murdered”

“Black still loves me.”

“I know. What the fuck did you do to that man?”

There was a long pause as Lani thought about Black and the possibility of him dying. There was no way she would be able to forget this if he died. He had to pull through.

“Girl, what are you thinking about?”

“Huh?”

“You just zoned out.”

“Well I was just hoping and wishing Black don’t die.”

“Try praying!”

“Well, that’s another thing. I overheard Nana praying that he pull through. Black can do no wrong in that woman’s eyes.”
