Nina rips open the envelope and pulls out the letter written on a yellow piece of paper and began to read…
Dear Nina,
Baby girl if you’re reading this letter, it only means two things, I’m in jail or I’m dead, whichever the case maybe, means I’m not there with you and Sasha to help you two anymore. I want you to know I love you my dear sister very much and I was always proud of you. The way you continued to go to work and school without a drop of energy in your body and refused to quit is amazing and makes me proud to be your brother. Nina I need you to look after Sasha, she’s all you got now, love and take care of her as I took care of you both. Nina I know you’re probably mad at me for not being there, but I want you to know everything I did was not for the money. I wanted to make sure you and Sasha were taken care of. Baby girl everything I did was for the love of my sisters.
Love ya,
Your Big Bro Muscles
Nina broke down and cried hysterically, understanding every word in the letter as deep as it can go and it touched her soul. She knew Muscles never had time for his life after their parents died. Muscles took care of them never living his own life and he would always tell them, everything I do in this world is for the love of my sisters. Nina cried the night away from the loss of her brother and knew things would never be the same.
An Excerpt From
A month flew by and Nina got tired of sitting in the house, the F.B.I. was no help in trying to find Sasha. They were too busy trying to connect Muscles to the Junkyard Crew. They asked Nina a million questions, nothing to do with finding her little sister. They were trying to connect the money she had in her bank account to dirty money, but like Steve said all the money came back clean through the accountant business when the Feds looked into it.
Nina got tired of the Feds and stopped picking up her phone when they called. She left her house and decides to take a look at the properties Muscles had left in her name. This gave her a reason to get out the house. She drove to the condo in Kew Gardens. It was a beautiful Jewish neighborhood. ‘Damn I could see myself living here,’ she said out loud as she got out of her truck and heads toward the one floor condo. ‘Number 290,’ she says as she looks at the paper in her hand while digging in her purse and pulls out the keys, then unlocks the door.
‘Wow! This place is fly,’ Nina said while looking around the lavish condo with a cream leather couch set, along with a 62” flat screen TV. Everything in the condo was luxurious. She walks deeper into the condo with her heels clicking on the cherry wood floor. She went into the master bedroom and looked at the king size bed that was made up in silk sheets. She looks at the pictures on the wall, there were five of them. They were pictures of Muscles, her and Sasha as children at different ages. She quickly walks out the room as pain from missing her brother and sister built back up. She walks pass the second bedroom and it was as if it called to her to open it. Nina opens the bedroom door and jumps back in shock. ‘Awww shit, Muscles what in the fuck were you planning on doing,’ she said out loud to herself as she looked at the arsenal of weapons. There were rifles and machine guns lined up against the wall and floor. There was no furniture in the room, just guns. Some guns Nina knew and other weapons she never seen in her life. She walks over to where there was a stack of hand guns lined up in different sizes, she bends down and picks up the small chrome 32 automatic and puts it in her purse then she leaves the condo and locks it up. ‘I might as well go look at the house in Long Island. The drive will be good for me’, she said to no one in particular and hops in her Range Rover and took off.
A half an hour later she pulls up to a two story house with a garage. It wasn’t better than the house she lived in or the condo, but it was still a come up for a family living in the projects. The neighborhood was quiet and the house was two blocks away from a school, Nina liked that. She opens the door of the house and went inside. The house wasn’t as lavish inside as the condo, but it was nice. It had a 42” TV and a black leather sofa set, but there were boxes all over the place, giving her no room to walk. ‘Shit what the fuck is with all these damn boxes!’ she yelled, ‘I’m not going to be able to look at the rest of this place. I can’t even walk in here.’
She looked at the boxes and became curious, she grabs a box and rips the duct tape off the top of it and looks inside. For the second time for the day, Nina stood there in shock looking at a clear plastic bag full of one brick of compressed weed. She rips open the plastic bag and her nose told her the weed was purple haze. ‘Shit that’s a lot of fucking weed.’ The box alone came up to her knees.
She looked around and wondered if all the boxes were full of weed. She began to rip duct-tape off two boxes to see the same thing, she couldn’t believe it. The house was filled with boxes of weed, more than she had ever seen in her life, more than most hustlers seen in their life. Nina grabs the closest box by the door and carries it out to her truck, then ran back and locked the front door and hops in her truck and pulls off.
She picks up her cellphone and dials a number.
“Hello Nina,” the voice said.
“Amber I need you to come by my place now.”
“Why, is everything ok?” Amber replied.
“Yea, just come, you still have your keys right?”
“Yea why, because you’ll get there before I do, I’ll talk to you then.”
With that said Nina hung up the phone then dials another number.
“What’s good girl, how you holding up?” the voice said.
“I’m good, but Luscious I need you to come to my place now, don’t ask any questions just please come,”
“Alright Nina, I’m on my way, one,” Luscious replied and hung up the phone.
Nina hops out her truck and grabs the box. Amber’s Chrysler 300z was parked in front of her house so Nina knew she was already inside. She found Amber on the couch staring at a picture of Muscles in her hand.
“I don’t know why you moved out Amber, this is just as much your house as it is mines. That’s the way Muscles wanted it.”
Amber looked up and wipes the tears from her eyes, “I know girl, but there’s too many memories here, that’s all, but we are always sisters,” Amber responded.
Nina puts down the box and gives Amber a hug.
“I miss you.”
“I miss you too,” Nina said.
The last time Nina saw Amber was at Muscles funeral. The doorbell rings making the women break their embrace. Nina went to the door and opens it for Luscious who was wearing a red, skin tight Prada dress.
“Girl you’re still a freak,” Nina said while hugging her.
“Please girl, don’t hate on me because I’m sexy,” Luscious said playfully, “Just because Buffie the Body and Bria got y’all dark and lovely sisters popping doesn’t mean we red bone women won’t make a comeback,” Luscious said causing them all to laugh.
Luscious heard Amber laughing and walks over and hugs her, “Hey girl I didn’t know you were here,” Luscious had found a new respect for the white women, for the way she handled herself that night, “Damn Amber, I knew you were thick and that’s why Muscles loved your ass, but girl you got thicker,” Luscious said while picking at Amber’s butt.
“Stop,” Amber said while laughing.
“Okay Nina, why you called us over here in such a rush?” Luscious asked.
Nina moved the box by the door dragging it closer to them and opens it, Luscious and Amber looks inside the box, “Damn! Shit!” they replied.
“That’s a lot of fucking weed,” Amber said.
“Where you get that?” Luscious asks.
“It was in one of the properties Muscles left me.”
Luscious mind raced as she realizes where the weed came from.
“Yo that’s the weed from the night of the big jux, Nina do you know how much weed you’re sitting on in that property?”
“I don’t know, it was just a lot of boxes everywhere, I couldn’t even walk around in the house, there was no room to,”
Nina replied.
Luscious took a deep breath, “Nina you’re sitting on over 110, 000 pounds of purple haze weed, that’s worth millions in the streets, I mean millions!”
All the women stood there in shock.
“Luscious that’s not all of what I found. Muscles had a condo he left me with a room full of guns.”
Luscious smiles as she thought of the house in Bayswater with all the guns in the room. It was the first time she’d ever seen anything like it.
“Listen I know that the two of you aren’t hurting for money. Luscious I know you made a lot of money with my brother and that’s not counting the money we took from Essence place.”
All three of their minds flashed back to that night they killed Essence and Bulltec and took $900,000 and split it.
“Nina, Muscles left me 2 million and a letter. I got a call from an accountant named Steve and he gave me the things Muscles told him to leave me,” Amber replied.
Nina did the math in her head and knew Muscles left her, Sasha and Amber all the money he made from the big jux. She remembered him keeping 6 million for himself, I guess that much.
“Amber, Muscles loved you and never would’ve left you hurting and he loved you Luscious, and made sure you were well taken care of too, you were his childhood sweetheart.”
A tear ran down Luscious’ face, because what Nina said was true. She loved Muscles and he loved her, but their relationship as lovers wasn’t as deep as their friendship. They weren’t meant to be lovers, but just friends.
Amber looked at Luscious with rage, she didn’t know she used to fuck her man, but as she watched the tears fall down Luscious cheeks she realize that every one of them loved him and was hurting, because he was gone.
“I called the two of you over here for your help.”
“Anything, how can we help you?” Luscious and Amber said simultaneously.
“I want to finish what my brother started. I want to flood the streets with weed and I need you, Luscious, to help me. I want to find my sister, the F.B.I. can care less for a sixteen year old black girl with Aids, and last I want to kill Pistol and anybody in his crew for the revenge of my brother. Amber with you being a lawyer, I believe you can help me find Pistol faster. I’m going to do this with y’all or without y’all help, I already made up my mind. So are you with me or not!” Nina yelled while looking Amber and Luscious in the eyes.
“I’m with you,” Amber said without hesitating.
“Me too,” Luscious replied.
The three women hugged.
“Oh yea, one more thing,” Amber said, “I’m three months pregnant.”
“Bitch, I knew your ass was too fat for a white girl,” Luscious said while picking at Amber’s butt again.
They all bust out laughing.
“I’m going to be an auntie, I’m going to be an auntie,” Nina said in a teasing tone.
“With us three, there’s nowhere Pistol can hide,” Nina said in a serious tone!
