  “Damn ho. Do I look like En Vouge to you? You had me holding on forever,”Kali spat.

  “Oh damn, I forgot my bad, that was Bay-Bay.”

  “Oh, so you couldn’t click over to tell me you would at call me back?”

  “No,‘cause he called me from jail,”Quita flatly told her.

  “Oh shit Quita, what he get locked for?” Kali questioned.

  “It was some bullshit, but he’s good though.”

  “What were you doing when I called, you sounded out of breath?” Quita asked trying to take her time telling Kali about the whole Black situation.

  “Oh, I just got off the phone with Black’s wife, and I told the bitch I’m pregnant!” Kali proudly told her.

  “Kali please tell me you didn’t do that.” Quita said.

  “Hells yeah I did…fuck him.” Kali spat.

  “Well what did she say? Quita asked.

  “The bitch broke down on the phone crying and shit. Then she handed the phone to Black and we got into an argument as usual.”

  “What he say?” Quita asked.

  “Of course he denied the baby. He said he was gonna fuck me up, but I’m not scared of his ass nomore!”

  “Hold on Kali. I need to call Lexi on threeway real quick.”

  “What do you need to call her for?” Kali asked.

  “You’ll see hold on.” Quita clicked the line before Kali had a chance to rebut.

  “Hello.” Lexi answered.

  “What up ho?” Quita said.

  “Who dis? Quita?”

  “Damn, you don’t know my voice nomore?” Quita asked her.

  “Yeah girl, my bad what’s up?”

  “Girl, I got some fuck shit to tell you and Kali,” Quita said.

  “Awww shit, what’s going on now?” Lexi asked.

  “Hold on. I got Kali on the other line,” Quita said clicking the line over so that all three of them would be on the phone.

  “Hello, are you there?” Quita asked.

  “Yeah, I’m here,” they said in unison.

  “A’ight, now that I got both y’all on the phone I hope y’all sitting down ‘cause I got some fuck shit to tell y’all,”Quita said.

  “What’s going on Quita?” Kali asked.

  “Well I told you Bay locked up right Kali?”

  “Yeah, you told me,” Kali answered.

  “Oh shit, what happened? Why he in jail?” Lexi asked.

  “He got hit with a failure to appear, so he gotta do like thirty days in county,” Quita told her.

  “Damn that’s fucked up.”Lexi said.

  “Anyway Kali remember when you said Black told you Mookie got merked out?” Quita asked her.

  “Yeah, that’s what he told me.”

  “Well I hate to tell you, but that nigga was lying his ass off ‘cause Mookie is just as alive as we are. The reason they left was because Black’s wife tried to kill herself.” Quita told her.

  “Oh shit!” Kali said stunned.

  “Yeah ,but that’s not it, Sousa is Blacks brother in law.” Quita told them.

  “Oh hell naw! Quita what the fuck you mean?” Lexi asked yelling into the phone.

  “Yo, chill I’m not finished. The whole shit was a fucking set up! Sousa and Black did that shit because some shit ‘bout the Cuban Sousa gets his work from fucked him over.” Quita told them.

  “Quita are you sure Bay-Bay not lying to cover his ass for not calling you?” Kali asked.

  “He’s telling the truth. I never told anybody this because it was told to me in confidence, but Bay-Bay told me some crazy shit. He said when he was twelve his little brother and moms was killed and since he been locked up he said Mookie sent him a kite telling him Black was the trigger man,” She told them.

  Lexi and Kali sat on the phone in shock. Nobody said a word. It was like everything that had gone on was one big ass dream that they couldn’t wake up from.

  “Quita what the fuck! What are we gonna do if them niggas try to come after us. It’s not like they don’t know where we all live,” Kali said.

  “Man I don’t know, but I know you really fucked up by calling that nigga’s wife!” Quita told her.

  “Kali! Oh my god, you called his wife?” Lexi asked.

  “Hell yeah. I’m pregnant and he wouldn’t call me back so fuck ‘em!” Kali said.

  “I thought I was crazy, but you got me beat,” Lexi told her.

  “Look y ’all, we need to take our minds off this crazy ass shit. Y’all wanna go out and get some drinks tonight?” Quita asked them changing the subject.

  “Hell yeah!” Kali and Lexi said.

  “Ya’ll get ready and come over my crib ‘round four so we can finish this discussion and have some drinks before we step out,” Quita told them.

  “That’s good, ‘cause I’m gonna drop Naja off over her grandmother’s for the weekend anyway,” Kali said.

  “A’ight bet. See y’all later,” Quita said and hung up the phone

  For the first time in a long time Quita got down on her knees and prayed to God.

  Dear God it’s me again. I know it’s been a while since I called on you, but I need you right now. My sister and I have gotten ourselves in a mess. I know we’re not living for you right now, but we really need you to save us from this life that we’ve become so used to. Lord please forgive us.

  Chapter 21

  Quita was at the crib chillin’ trying to come up with a plan to get back at Black for what he had done to her girls and her man. She was sitting there stuck not knowing what to do. She sparked an L to help her think straight, because she did her best thinking when she was high.

  She heard a knock on the door. When she got to the door she looked through the peephole and it was Lexi. Quita quickly unlocked the door and gave Lexi a hug.

  “What up girl?” Quita asked her.

  “Not shit bored as a mufucka, that’s why I’m over her heifer. Why are you looking all sad and shit?” Lexi asked.

  “Girl I just got a bad feeling ‘bout that shit with Black, I wish Kali hadn’t called that nigga’s wife with that pregnancy shit. She said she been receiving mad private calls and they keep telling her they gonna kill her,” Quita said.

  “Damn Quita, that’s some serious shit right there. What is she gonna do?” Lexi asked.

  “I dunno she keep talking ‘bout she think it’s just his wife playing on the phone, so she’s not scared.”

  “I think she’s just in denial that’s all,” Lexi told her.

  “Yeah. I guess so, but she needs to wake the fuck up ‘cause this shit ain’t no fuckin’ joke,” Quita said. She jumped up real fast scaring Lexi half to death.

  “Oh, girl I almost forgot to tell you, I got three round trip tickets to Myrtle Beach for me you and Kali to take us a little trip to clear our heads and come up with a plan to get this nigga back.”

  “Shit. When do we leave is all I wanna know?” Lexi asked hyped.

  “Well we got two days and we’re out, so take care of what business you have here so we can be out. I got us first class tickets,” Quita grinned slyly.

  “That’s cool ‘cause I need a vacaton. Anyway have you talked to your boo lately?” Lexi asked.

  “Yeah he was the one that suggested this trip. For some reason he thinks Black might try some fuck shit, so he want us to get out of dodge for a week or so ‘cause he should be coming home right after.”

  “Do you think Black would try some crazy shit with us?” Lexi asked.

  “I really don’t know what the nigga might try being that he set that whole New York shit up. I just can’t wait until my baby gets home ‘cause he’ll make sure shit is straight,” she said sadly.

  “Quita, I’m so happy that you finally found true love,” Lexi said smiling at her friend.

  “I’m happy too girl, but I can’t count my chickens before they hatch. You know how niggas can be when they get comfortable. Shit, I’m scared of you and J-Roc talking ‘bout marriage and kids. I should be the one con
gratulating you,” Quita said. They both laughed.

  “Let me go get us a drink.” Quita said getting off the couch. When she went into the kitchen she heard another knock on her door.

  “Lex, will you get that for me?”

  “Yeah, I got you!” She opened the door and it was Kali and Naja smiling from ear to ear.

  “Hey girl what’s up with you and little momma,” Lexi greeted her.

  “We’re good. I saw ya car, so I came to see what y’all heifers were doing before I Naja to her grandmothers crib,” Kali said.

  “Oh, that’s what’s up. Quita’s in the kitchen fixing some drinks,” Lexi told her.

  “Yo, is was that Lexi?” Quita yelled from the kitchen.

  “Kali and the baby,” Lexi told her.

  “Hey, y’all I’ll be in there in a sec. Hey do you want a drink Kali?” Quita yelled from the kitchen.

  “You know it. Hook me up,” Kali said.

  Quita came into the living room with their drinks in hand. Lexi was playing with the baby.

  “You’re looking real comfortable over there playing with my niece. You just might be ready to spit on out for Jasen’s ass,” Quita said laughing.

  Lexi looked up and gave Quita the middle finger.

  “Hey sis what’s good?” Quita asked.

  “Girl nothing. I needed to get the fuck out the crib. It’s too nice out to be inside. I’m ‘bout to drop Naja’s ass off,” Kali said.

  “I know that’s right. I got some good news for you,” Quita told her.

  “What kinda good news?” Kali asked.

  “I was just telling Lexi that we gonna have us some real fun, and let our hair down,”

  “Ok what then? Stop beating around the damn bush Quita,” Kali told her.

  Just as Quita was about to tell Kali that she had arranged for them to go down to Myrtle Beach her phone started ringing.

  “Damn, I swear if it ain’t the door it’s the damn phone! Who in the fuck is this calling now?” Quita said. She was tired of mufuckas blowing her up.

  ‘It’s probably Daskiki’s ass asking for money again, thinking I owe her ass something for staying with her ass!’ Quita thought to herself.

  “Hello. Hello,” she said.

  “You have a collect call…’ Quita held up her finger to signal Lexi and Kali to stop talking.

  “Ssssh this is my baby,” she said walking to her room. Quita quickly pressed the five key to accept the call.

  “Hey Bay what’s up baby?” She asked.

  “You’re what up slim. What you doing?” He asked.

  “Sitting here talking to my sister and my girl Lexi. I miss you so much baby,” Quita said.

  “I miss you too Quita. Did you do what I told you to do?” Bay asked her referring to them taking a trip.

  “Yes baby. I took care of that first thing this morning.” She told him.

  “Good, I see you listened to me,” Bay-Bay said.

  “Did you get the three yards I shot you?” Quita asked him.

  “Oh yeah I got it yesterday. Thanks again baby.”

  “Don’t even trip. I told you I got you as long as you got me if I need you,” Quita told him.

  “I already told you what it is when I get home. Just me and you,” Bay told her.

  “I know that’s why I fucks with you nigga,” Quita said laughing.

  “When y’all rolling out?” Bay asked.

  “We gotta flight leaving out the day after tomorrow at two o’clock baby,” she said.

  “Hopefully by the time y’all touch back down, I should be out. I gotta get off this phone baby,” Bay-Bay told her.

  “Why you gotta go? We ain’t been on here fifteen minutes yet,” Quita whined.

  “I know but they ‘bout to do count and we can’t be on the phone,” he said.

  “A’ight that’s cool. Just call me back.” She pouted.

  “I will baby. I love you.” Bay said to her.

  “I love you too babe.” Quita said hanging up the phone. She went back to the living room to join Kali and Lexi.

  “Damn ho what the fuck was y’all talking ‘bout so important that you had to go to ya bedroom?” Kali asked being a smart ass.

  “They were probably having phone sex and she was back there playing with herself!” Lexi said. Lexi and Kali laughed in unison.

  “You know what fuck both of y’all bitches! We had some important shit to discuss. Ya’ll were talking so I went to my room. Then again maybe I was playing with myself!” Quita said being sarcastic.

  “We’re just playing lil sis, chill,” Kali told her.

  Quita gave her the hand and dismissed her.

  “What was Bay-Bay talking ‘bout?” Kali asked her.

  “He really didn’t say much he was just calling to check on us,” Quita said.

  “Oh, well get back to telling me the good news you said you had to tell me before ya hubby called?” Kali said.

  “You’re just full of jokes today huh? Anyway I was just telling Lexi that I’ve made arrangements for us to go down to Myrtle Beach. Don’t worry though ‘cause everything is paid for,” Quita told her.

  “Oh hell yeah!” Kali said jumping up and down screaming. She was so loud she scared Naja and caused her to cry.

  “Damn, girl calm down and get the baby,” Quita laughed. Lexi picked Naja up and she calmed down.

  “When are we leaving?” Kali asked.

  “Our flight leaves the day after tomorrow at two o’clock,” Quita explained.

  “Damn, Quita that’s short notice. Why didn’t you tell us sooner?” Kali asked.

  “I just made all the arrangements this morning and I didn’t even know myself until Bay-Bay told me the other day. The reason I didn’t say anything is because I wasn’t for sure if I wanted to go,” Quita told her.

  “Well I’m with it. I just gotta call Naja’s grandmother and tell her I need her to baby sit and we can be out,” Kali said.

  “Lexi are you gonna be able to come?” Quita asked.

  “Hell yeah I’m coming. That was a dumb ass question.” Lexi said.

  “Hey Kali have you still been getting those threatening phone calls?” Quita asked. There was a pause before Kali answered.

  “Yeah, I have, but I don’t wanna talk about that right now. I’m having a good time,” Kali said.

  Quita decided to drop it because she knew that Kali was already bothered by what was going on, and she didn’t want to add to her stress. They just kicked it for the rest of the day and then went to the club that night.

  They had to rest the day before their trip because they all had hangovers from all of the Blue Flames they had.

  The day of the trip Quita was up bright and early ready to get the fuck out of town for a while. Most importantly her 18th birthday was the following week, so she was ready to show the Carolinas some West Virginia spice. She took a shower and fixed herself some breakfast. After she got herself together she called Lexi to make sure she was up and getting ready.
