Chapter 21
When you a bad muthafucka like me, you don’t have any cares.
Yea, Summer busted my shit, but guess what?
Her nigga paid for it. He even put me in a rental car until it was fixed.
What I got to worry about? Now, what was bothering me was Trey.
I was on my way to pick his dumb ass up from jail and take him to my house.
He lost everything fucking with his baby mama.
It took my daddy to talk me into getting him and taking him in.
He had three months to get on his feet and get the hell out of my house.
Now that he was going to be at my house, I couldn’t bring Law over knowing that Trey was fucking his girl.
That was asking for a war that I wasn’t ready to deal with.
I pulled into the parking lot to Trey smiling like he had just did a ten-year bid.
Dumb ass nigga had it good but let a hood thot make him slip up and get her pregnant.
How he let that happen, I have no idea. Lana was fucking so much that she couldn’t keep up with the names of the niggas she was with.
“Pinkie, thank you so much for coming to get me. I owe you big time.”
“Yea, you do and the first thing you need to do is find a damn job.”
“I talked with my supervisor today and they are willing to take me back but I can’t get the pay I was getting. I got to start back over.”
“That’s a start.”
I rode the rest of the way to my house in silence. All I could think about is keeping Trey out of my business and out of my way. I haven’t had a man stay with me in a while and I was enjoying my space.
“You can take the room upstairs down the hall. It has a bathroom in the room. You’re free to anything in the kitchen.”
“Okay.”
“I’m about to head out for a few and then swing by my club; do you need anything?”
“Can you like, get a nigga few things from the store?”
“I got you some things in the drawer to start you out. You can take a hot shower and chill. Maybe tomorrow we can go get you some more stuff but I want my damn money back. Every damn dime.”
“I got you.”
“You better.”
The weather was cloudy so I didn’t put the top back on my car. I was doing my usual which was go get me a plate from Ms. Mae and then go to work. It was payroll time, and I had to handle that before I would pass it off to my club manager to give out.
“Well, aren’t you just as pretty today,” Ms. Mae greeted me. “You getting your usual.”
“Yes ma’am.”
“Law told me what Summer did to your car and I would like to apologize about that. You know she’s pregnant and her hormones are out of control.”
“I’m not worried about her. She got a lot of growing up to do.”
“I love her though, but whatever you and Law got going on is dangerous. I don’t want her to hurt y’all.”
“Who said we had something going on?”
“He hadn’t said anything but I could tell by the way you walk in here.
You come in like you’re looking for him.
You been after him for some time now. But let me say this, he loves Summer no matter how much dick, sucking, and fucking y’all do.
She’s carrying his baby and they been together a long time.
He’s never going to leave her alone, even if he wanted to. ”
“Trust me, I don’t want your son on that level. He nice and all but I’m good in my life.”
“I’ve heard that too. Right before the girl pulled the trigger on my oldest son. I want this to stop before the same thing happens again.”
“Ms. Mae, I love you and you know that, but you don’t have to worry about me. Maybe you should talk to her.” I pointed at Summer walking through the door.
“I see she sucked you in, too,” Summer stated.
Someone came from the back with my food and I got up to leave. Baby girl wanted to argue but I wasn’t in the mood. After what Ms. Mae said, I didn’t want to seem like it was something more than it was between Law and I.
“Summer, can you come help me with something in my office?” Ms. Mae stopped her from following me.
“Hey, Pinkie!” Summer called out. I turned around to see what she wanted. “Count your days bitch.”
