Cairo
"Here's your van back, with four new tires, a full tank of gas, and an oil change.""Here's your van back blah blah blah...just shut the fuck up" I mocked him as I snatched the keys just like he did to me, "big black son of a bitch!... MOVE!! All in the fucking way..."
He stepped aside from my Kia with a smirk on his face nd I wanted to smack that shit off so bad!😠😠
"I hope you ain't thinking you getting anything in return for this" I pointed out
"Did I ASK?" He asked me
"I'm just letting your ugly ass know, you ain't getting my money or anything else" I smiled
"First of all bitch, I NEVER been an ugly mothafucka and you know THAT!! Second don't get me confused with these busted ass niggas out here. You know I never had to do any favors to get pussy. If I wanted your pussy I would have gotten it, capiche?"
"I know what kind of trash ass motherfucker you are! You may got these sluts and skanks out here fooled but I know the real YOU!"
"And what is the REAL ME? The real me that protected you? The real me that was fighting niggas for you? The real me that was hustling at 16 just to buy your ungrateful ass shit because I swore I would take care of you? The real me that had my whole life planned around YOU. You don't know shit about the real me 'Ro" he shook his at me like he was disappointed
"Naw bitch, I'm talking the real YOU that never loved me! You know, that REAL YOU that only did kept me around because of what I can do? You only cared about the fact I could get pregnant. Remember when you said you wanted to be the first nigga in Tarboro that got another nigga knocked up? I remember that very well."
"We were young...hella young. And yeah I can admit that was me in the beginning but that shit changed quick Cairo! You know I loved you, you know I would lay my life down for you. I still would right now. Your ass been gone for over a decade and here I am STILL trying to give you the world!"
"I bet you feel stupid as hell don't ya bitch?!" I was enjoying this shit. Seeing him in his feelings talking about some love he had over a decade ago, like that bullshit matters to me.
"Mom, Rah just fixed your van for FREE?" Kingley walked up looking at the shiny new tires in awe.
"KINGLEY!! KINGLEY!! YOU FORGOT YOUR FOOD SUGA!!"
I looked behind me to see two white women running across the street towards us.
"You ran out so fast! Almost blew my hair straight!" The blonde laughed, then her name came back to my memory. She was holding a bag of food and a 2 liter root beer.
"How much I owe you?" Kingley asked, reaching in his pocket.
"Let's see..." Cotton smiled as she pulled the ticket off the brown paper bag, "Looks like you owe me a big hug Mr Kingley!" She gasped as she ripped the receipt up and opened her arms wide. King latched on to her with no hesitatation. I felt some type of way about it; I want a hug from my little King too😒
