"Uh oh!" Mary snickered as she watched a grim faced health department worker leave Anitra’s apartment. "Who is the ratchet girl now?"
"Sup shawty?" Dino demanded once he hung up.
"They done pull the plug on my cuz," he said sadly "I'm finna kill that bitch!"
"Hold up shawty, let's take her somewhere and make her tell us the truth," Dino suggested, just as she came back into view from the store. Rodney agreed by nodding his head but was too distraught to speak. Instead he got into the car to wait.
"Sup Mary? Come hang out I got some weed," Dino offered politely. The AIDS scare in the projects cut the sex traffic down so much the girls hadn’t smoked in days. She entertained the thought of grabbing Sha'Nay-nay but since she had been acting so stank lately she decided to tell her about it when she got home.
"Let's ride!" she cheered jumping in the backseat of the car. "hey Rodney."
Rodney wanted to kill her so bad he couldn't even reply; he could only nod. She jumped in the backseat. They drove over to the east side of town so the impending crime would be handled by another police jurisdiction.
Once they got her into a hotel room, Dino wasted no time getting inside of her. She had to smoke a blunt doggy style while he humped himself to a quick nut. Rodney had initially refused, finally got turned on and pushed inside of her mouth.
After everyone got off a few times they stopped to smoke a blunt. Rodney couldn't wait any longer and punched her so savagely in her temple even Dino said, "Damn!" When she finally woke up she was bound and gagged face down on the bed.
"Who kilt my cousin?" Rodney growled as he lined up his erection with her anus.
"I don't know!" she lied through the gag.
"Wrong answer!" he said and shoved himself into her intestines. He repeated the question several times as he stroked. Stroked and asked, asked and stroked, until she was bloody. Finally, he collapsed on her back as he bust a nut.
After laying there for a few seconds to catch his breath, Rodney wrapped his arm around her neck. A few seconds of pressure later, and she was unconscious; a few seconds after that she was dead.
The men washed up and left leaving her full of the semen that would eventually link them to her murder. Assuming her best friend had to be down with the lick, they set out in search of her next.
CHAPTER 9
When Mary didn't return to the apartment Sha'Nay-nay assumed she got sidetracked by someone’s dick. She pulled her socks and shoes on and went to check the mail herself.
The health department workers were now hip to the aversion tactics the residents played. They adapted and came up with a plan of their own. They began coming out after working hours and surprising the positive residents.
When Sha'Nay-nay saw the distinctive green shirt she almost took off running.
"Excuse me ma'am are you Mary James?” he asked while reading from his clipboard.
"No!" Sha'Nay-nay practically screamed in relief.
"Can I see some ID?" he asked skeptical from experience.
"Mm hm, you sure can," she said proudly producing a driver’s license.
As he inspected it against the names on the clipboard, Sha'Nay-nay realized what that meant for her best friend. Mary must have tested positive. She held her breath until he finally determined she was not on his list and handed back her ID.
"Please tell Miss James we need to speak with her as soon as possible," he said stoically.
Tears begin to trickle down her face as she walked over to the mailbox in search of more good news. There were a few people still thanking God Almighty for the yellow envelope that declared them healthy. She stuck a tiny key in the lock and turned it.
"Bitch you killed me. Me and my baby!" a voice trembled behind her. She turned to see Anitra holding a huge revolver in her tiny hands.
"Huh, girl what are talking about?" she asked, confused by her and the gun’s presence in her life.
"Kendall! I know you were fucking him, that's how we got AIDS bitch! You done gave us AIDS!" she screamed wildly.
"I, I uh…" was all Sha'Nay-nay could utter as her brain scrambled to catch up.
"Bitch you already told me you was fucking him so don't lie now!" she yelled inching closer.
"OK we..." was all she got out before a slug slammed her back into the mailboxes.
Sha'Nay-nay slid slowly down the wall of boxes but had passed away before she reached the bottom. Anitra opened wide and inserted the big barrel into her mouth. A quick tug on the trigger ended her life as well.
The impact of Sha'Nay-nay against the mailboxes caused the door to open. Out fell coupons and advertisements that had collected. With them was the yellow envelope announcing her negative status.
THE END
