Remy and Rose': A Hood Love Story

by Mz. Lady P

  The worst of it all was Magdalena telling me that my mother had purposely gave my father excessive amounts of Morphine which killed him. That hurt my heart so bad. My father was a great husband to her selfish ass. In return she slept with the enemy and killed the best father in the world. So, it’s fuck her evil ass. I hope and pray she rots in hell because that’s exactly where she’s going.

  The entire time that I had been in Mexico, I managed to get back in my mother’s good graces. I was able to get codes to some safes that were located in his office. I ran across numerous deeds to homes we had all over the world, not to mention a shitload of bank statements linked to offshore accounts. Looking over my father’s will, I found that he had left everything to me. My mother wasn’t getting shit. That’s why she was against me from the jump. In the event of my untimely death, she would inherit everything. The bitch Ava was in on it too. She managed to get away in the midst of all the chaos. If the bitch knows what’s good for her ass, she will stay as far away from me as possible.

  The last thing I wanted my wife to see was me with the bitch, Ava. I don’t even know what to say to her. I have never questioned her love for me, but her coming here is confirmation of her love for me. As I head over to the safe house where I had my men take care, I can’t help but think about her saying that we had a three-week-old son. I haven’t been gone for nine months so she had to have him early. I had so many questions but was too afraid to ask. The look in her eyes was nothing but pure hatred. I can’t live knowing that she hates me. Rose’ has to understand that everything I did was for us to be able to live comfortably.

  “What’s up Marco? How is she doing in there?” I asked one of my men, who I had bring her here.

  “Mrs. Ramirez is not a happy camper. She’s a feisty one, boss. Forgive me if I’m out of line, but I don’t think you want to go up there right now.” The look on his face let me know that she had given him hell.

  “If I want my wife, I have no other choice but to go up there. Try not to laugh if you hear me begging like Keith Sweat.” We both laughed and I headed into the crib to holler at Rose’.

  I hesitated before placing the key inside the lock. I went inside and Rose’ was asleep on the bed. I really missed her beautiful ass. She was sleeping so peacefully that I didn’t want to wake her. I undressed, showered and lay in bed with her. I hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in months. Lying beside Rose’ was the best feeling on Earth. I just watched her until I drifted off to sleep.

  The next morning I woke up and Rose’ was gone. I packed my shit and took flight back to Chicago. I was so fucking mad at her for leaving, but in my heart I knew that I had no right to be mad.

  Once my plane landed, I headed straight to Madear’s house. I knew that’s where Rose’ would be at. It was early as hell but I didn’t care; I needed to talk to Rose’. I knocked on the door several times before Madear opened it.

  “Look what the wind done blew in. If I had my shotgun I would shoot you in your ass… got my grandbaby crying and shit. I don’t know where you’ve been and I really don’t give a damn. You better get your shit together and make things right with Rose’.”

  “I’m going to do everything in my power to make it up to Rose’. You know I love my wife, Madear. Where is she?”

  “She’s at the hospital with the baby, where you need to be.”

  Madear slammed the door in my face. I couldn’t even be mad at her. Madear don’t play when it comes to her grandkids. I got in contact with Dino and found out that the baby was at Comer Children’s Hospital. After getting the information from the receptionist, I rode the elevator up to the NICU. I never imagined I would be seeing my firstborn son under these conditions. I let out a deep breath before entering the room.

  My anxiety level was at an all-time high. It was sad seeing all the babies with tubes coming from everywhere. The nurse led me to my son’s incubator and I smiled as I approached him. Rose’ wasn’t around so I sat in the chair next to his incubator and just stared at him. He was my twin. I placed my hands inside the holes so that I could touch him. His eyes opened up and he stared straight at me.

  “You mad at Daddy too, huh? I love you son and I’m sorry for not being here. I’m here now and I’m not going anywhere.”

  “Don’t make promises to him that your black ass can’t keep. You need to go ahead on back to Mexico with that bitch Ava. We don’t need your ass here. We’ve been doing fine without you,” Rose’ said from behind me.

  “Don’t do that Rose’.” I knew she was mad, but all that language and disrespect wasn’t even necessary.

  “Don’t do what, tell the truth? I’m so over this shit with you. Could you please do me and my son a favor? Leave and never come back.”

  “Excuse me. I think you all should step out. We don’t want to make the baby upset. I’ll take good care of your son. Go home and get some rest, Mrs. Ramirez. You’ve been here around the clock,” the nurse said as she started checking the baby’s vitals.

  I took another look at my son and stepped out in the hallway, waiting for Rose’ to come out. I knew she was mad at me, but she had me and life fucked up if she thought the shit she said out her mouth was cool.

  “Your still here?” Rose’ said as she tried to walk past me but I grabbed her.

  “Stop with all the fucking disrespect. I know you’re mad right now but you need to calm down. Let’s go home and talk about this shit Rose’. How the fuck can I make things right if you won’t let me?

  “In case you didn’t get the fucking memo, I don’t have a house to go to. Your dead ass mother put me and my daughter out of our home.”

  “We have a new home. I had it built from the ground up for us. Let’s go pick up Heaven and go home. Please give me a chance to explain myself.” She reluctantly let me hold her hand and we walked out of the hospital together.

  Chapter 29- Rose’

  As I rode in the car with Remy, I couldn’t even look at him. If I did I would burst into tears. I was all cried out. It was crazy how this man was my husband, my better half, the father of my child but he felt like a stranger to me. I don’t know who this man sitting next to me is.

  I stared out of the window until we made it to Madear’s house. Heaven came running outside full speed ahead. She was so happy to see Remy. I didn’t even exist to her once she saw him.

  “Heyyy! Daddy I missed you so much. Where have you been?” Heaven asked as she got in the car with us. She hugged Remy’s neck from the back and kissed him on his jaw.

  “I had to take a vacation baby girl. I missed you too.” He hugged and kissed her cheeks. It was good seeing them together. All she does is asks about him; seeing them together warmed my heart.

  “Hey Heaven, Mommy don’t get no love?”

  “Sorry Mommy.” She kissed me on the jaw and put her seatbelt on. We continued to drive for another hour. I don’t know where the hell we were. There was nothing but roads and trees. When we finally stopped, we came to a huge gate. I watched as Remy used his fingerprint to gain access. The huge gate opened up and we drove up to the front of the house. It was amazing.

  The exterior of the home had all white and gold trimmings, all around it. The yard was beautifully manicured. It looked like something out of Home and Garden magazine.

  “Welcome home. Do you like it?” Remy asked as we got out of the car.

  “I love it, Daddy. I’m so happy you brought us a new house. The mean lady made us leave our other house. Then we had to go live with my Daddy Ace. He hit Mommy and Ms. Diamond all the time.”

  Leave it to my daughter to run off at the mouth. With the birth of my son and catching Remy in Mexico with Ava, I had put the ordeal with Ace behind me. I kept my eyes glued to the floor because I was too scared to look up. The hairs on the back of my neck were standing up out of the fear of how Remy would look at me.

  “Go upstairs and find your room Heaven. I’m sure your daddy made it really beautiful for you.”

  “What
the fuck is she talking about?” Remy said as he walked towards me and pushed me into the wall. Tears fell down my face as I thought about all that I had been through.

  “While you were away taking care of business, my daughter and I were being held captive in Ace and Diamond’s house. He had me in the basement for like three months. He knew I was pregnant and he still raped me every day. Honey and Neicee found out where I was and when I went to the hospital, I had to give birth to my son at six months.

  You have no idea what I’ve been through since you’ve been gone. How could you just up and leave us like that? You broke your promise, Remy. You told me everything would be okay and I was safe with you. You lied to me! You lied to me! I hate you so much.” I was crying and hitting him all over. I didn’t care where the punches landed. I was so fucking mad at him. I hit him until I got tired of swinging. I just fell to the floor and cried. He lifted me up and carried me upstairs to our bedroom.

  “I’m so sorry baby. I never meant for any of this to happen. I had to go back to Mexico and off them motherfuckers who crossed my father. If I didn’t I wouldn’t be standing here with you now. All that shit with Ava was a fucking set-up for me to take back what the fuck they stole from my father. Everything I did was for us. I’m sorry that I wasn’t here to protect you and Heaven. Rose’, you have to know that I would never put my family in harm’s way. I love you, Rose’. Please forgive me for not being here when you needed me.” Remy was kissing me all over my face and wiping my tears away.

  “I missed you so fucking much,” Remy said as he laid me down on the bed. He pulled my shoes off and began tugging at my pants. At first I was hesitant but I had yearned for my husband for months, and finally he was here with me. I needed to feel him, and right now he felt good as fuck. I kissed him on his lips long and hard. He slipped his tongue in my mouth and he tasted so sweet.

  Once my pants and panties were off, Remy went straight in for the kill. He was pounding my pussy with so much force I swear I could feel his ass damn near in my chest. I wrapped my legs around his waist and grabbed his ass to bring him in closer to me.

  “Please Remy. Don’t ever leave me again,” I kept saying over and over again. At the same time I was cumming all over him.

  “I’ll never leave you again baby.” As the words left Remy’s mouth he came and we both became as one we just laid there and held on to each other. I gently tugged on his dreads. I inhaled deeply and his cologne mixed with the smell of his hair oil had me wet as hell. I felt his dick come back to life inside of me and we went back at it like wild animals. After twenty minutes of doing every position possible, I was stuck. As I lay on Remy’s chest, I thought about our marriage and if we were going to make it.

  “Thank you Rose’.” Remy sat up and stared me directly in the eyes.

  “Thank you for what?”

  “For giving me my first born son. That shit means the world to me, ma.”

  I blushed as he kissed me on the lips. I missed this man so much and at this very moment, the only thing that mattered was us and our kids. I had finally found my happy. Even though there had been hurdles and obstacles standing in our way, I had to forgive Remy for leaving me alone. In my heart I knew he meant well, even if I didn’t agree with him fucking the crazy bitch Ava. Remy belonged to me and all I wanted was for us to be happy, have a house full of kids, and grow old together. I deserved happiness and I was going to die getting it.

  The next morning we dropped Heaven off to Madear’s and went to the hospital. They had been calling me all morning telling me I needed to get there immediately. When we made it to the hospital, the administrator and some police officers were waiting for us. We were escorted into a private area.

  “Can somebody please tell us what the fuck is going on with our son?” Remy said as he stood up and knocked the chair over he was sitting in.

  “We’re sorry to inform you, but your son was kidnapped during the night. We’re doing everything possible to find him,” the hospital administrator said. I lost all of my senses hearing that my son was gone.

  “What the fuck you mean he was kidnapped?” Remy said as he hit the hospital administrator. The police jumped in and he started to fight them and that made them angrier. They tussled and fought with Remy as they tried to put him in handcuffs.

  “Please stop fighting, Remy! Please don’t arrest him!” I cried and pleaded with the police officers.

  “I’m sorry ma’am, but he assaulted a police officer.” They finally got the handcuffs on him and escorted him out.

  “Don’t cry Rose’, we’re going to find him,” he yelled over his shoulder. I laid my head down on the desk and cried harder than I ever have in my life. The very moment I thought I had found my happiness, it was ripped away from me in the blink of an eye. All I could think about was who had my son and why did they kidnap him?

  *****

  It had been a month since our son had been kidnapped. There had been no clues as to where he was or who could have taken him. I just knew someone was going to call with a ransom demand or some shit, but we got nothing. The person who took our son was a woman but we couldn’t see her face clearly on the videotape from the hospital, because she had a hat covering her face. She was dressed in scrubs and had on a badge. That’s how she was able to get in and kidnap our son.

  With Remy Jr. being gone, there was a strain in my marriage. I couldn’t remember the last time I had spent time with Remy. He had been out in the streets along with Boo and Peanut, wreaking havoc trying to find out information about who took our son. Honey and Neicee were also doing what they could do to find him. My father and Madear took Heaven to keep her safe. As for me, I’ve been sitting around sulking. Not to mention drinking like a damn fish. Pineapple Ciroc had become my best friend, in addition Xanax. It was the only thing that numbed me from all the pain I was experiencing and what I had been through in my life. Remy didn’t want to believe that Ava could have something to do with the disappearance of our son, but I knew this had that bitch name all over it. Only jealous women would do some shit like this. After what Remy did to her, I wouldn’t be surprised if she did this crazy shit. Remy felt like Ace had something to do with it but I don’t think that. If he wanted to harm the baby, he would have made me have a miscarriage when he was holding me hostage.

  To be on the safe side, I was making a trip to the county jail. I didn’t tell anybody because I knew they would think I was out of my mind. I actually was out of my mind. My son being gone was taking a toll on me. I was slowly but surely losing my mind.

  “What are you doing here Rose’?” Ace said into the phone. I thought he would be looking all rough but he was looking the total opposite. Usually niggas be stressing but he looked like he wasn’t worried about shit. That was Ace for you. Crazy motherfucker didn’t have a care in the world.

  “Did you have something to do with the kidnapping of my son?” Tears were rolling down my face as I sobbed.

  “Of course not Rose’. I have no reason to kidnap your son. In case you forgot I’ve been in here. Plus, I’ve caused you and my daughter enough pain. I’m sorry for everything I ever did to you. I know it’s too late for me to make things right. I plead guilty and I was sentenced to ten years in prison. I get shipped out tomorrow. I know you view me as a monster and you have every right to think that. I just couldn’t deal with the fact that you were with someone else. I hope you find your son safe and unharmed.

  Hopefully, when I get out I can build a relationship with my daughter if she doesn’t hate me my guts. No matter what, it’s my blood running through her veins. Again, I’m sorry for everything. Kiss my daughter for me. Goodbye Rose’.”

  Ace hung up the phone and walked away. I wasn’t expecting that at all. Despite Ace being apologetic, the devil lives inside of him and that would never go away. Ace needs professional help. I hope he gets that while he’s away. As far as him building a relationship with Heaven, that will never happen. Remy has officially adopted her and changed her last name t
o Ramirez.

  I believed Ace when he said he had nothing to do with the kidnapping. That only left Ava. That bitch had a motive, and all evidence in my book led to her. When I arrived home there was a package on our doorstep addressed to Remy. As I walked inside the house, the loud smell of Kush invaded my nostrils.

  “Hey Husband.” I tried to kiss him but he pushed me away from him.

  “Where the fuck have you been at?” He drank straight from the Hennessy bottle.

  “I had to go out and handle some things.” I spoke nervously because Remy was seething with anger.

  “So you gone sit and lie in my motherfucking face like I’m some bitch ass nigga? You must’ve liked for that nigga to hold you hostage and rape your ass. Is that what made you go and see that nigga?” Remy yanked me by the collar of my shirt and slammed me into the wall.

  “I only went to see him to ask if he took our son. He doesn’t know anything. I needed to talk to him personally, Remy.”

  “You were supposed to check with me before you decided to go and do some shit like that. I’m handling this shit my own way.”

  “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you Remy. I needed to know. Please find my baby. I’m going to die without him.” We stood in the middle of our living room crying our eyes out and holding each other. Remy wasn’t the type to cry, but I could tell this shit was hurting him as much as it was hurting me.

  “I promise I’m going to find him. Please have faith in your man.” Remy kissed me over and over again. After we gathered ourselves, I remembered the package that was addressed to him.

  “This came for you.” I handed it to him and I watched him open it. It was a DVD with the words “Watch Me” written across it. We both looked at each other before he put inside the DVD player.
