Remy and Rose' 2: A Hood Love Story

by Mz. Lady P

  Chapter 13- Remy

  We were all packed up and ready for our flight, but before it was time for takeoff I had a pit stop to make. The shit with Ace’s mother didn’t sit too well with me. After all this time she wants to visit with Heaven. This had her son’s name all over it. I got her information from the document that was sent over by the court. I know that I should have probably let Rose` come over but I didn’t want my wife upset about shit. She didn’t want to admit it, but finding out that her mother had reached out really bothered her. Rose` has serious abandonment issues. She has every reason to be upset. If and when she gets in contact with her mother, I plan on speaking with her as well. If she is not trying to be the mother or grandmother that she needs to be, then it’s best she stays away just like she’s been doing. Rose` doesn’t need the added stress.

  I had been sitting inside of Ace’s mother, Linda’s house waiting for her arrival. I knew that her shift at the hospital was over and she should be walking in at any minute. Since her ass was taking all day, I flamed up me a blunt and made me a sandwich.

  “What the hell are you doing in my house?” She came in carrying a lot of bags. I continued to sit in her living room with my feet propped up on the table. I had my glock resting on my lap.

  “It would be in your best interest to come over here and have a seat.” I removed my feet from the off the table and placed my gun on it. Her eyes were wide as saucers when she saw the gun. I saw the fear in her eyes as she slowly walked over and sat down.

  “Please don’t hurt me!”

  “I’m not here to bring you any harm. However, I’m here to give you an offer you can’t refuse.” I threw down the court document and an envelope with fifty thousand dollars inside. I leaned back and flamed up another blunt. I waited for her to look at everything that I had just given her.

  “Look, all I want is to know my granddaughter. I never knew she existed until a couple of months ago. That bitch is trying to take her away from my son. He has a right to be in her life. This money don’t mean shit to me. I would never sell my son out for a measly fifty thousand dollars. I’m good. You can leave my house now the same way you came in. I’ll be sure to let Ace know about this as well.” I laughed at her ass when she said she was going to tell Ace. I exhaled the blunt smoke and stood to my feet. I grabbed the envelope and the court document and stuck them inside my jacket pocket.

  “Is that your final answer?”

  “Yes it’s my final answer.”

  “Wrong motherfucking answer!” Without hesitation I dumped two in her dome and painted the wall behind her red. Old bitch was asking for it. I hoped Ace got the message loud and clear. I had a plane to catch and another bitch to kill.

  Miami Florida

  I was so glad Rose` loved the mansion that I had purchased from one of my business associates, Thug. This house was some shit like lifestyles of the rich and famous. I loved the fact that it was in a private area. We had no neighbors. Besides the fact that Boo, Honey, Neicee, and Peanut lived a couple of miles down from us, everything was by the water. Peace and Serenity. That’s what I wanted for my family. Thug and I had sat down over drinks when we were going over all the paperwork, and discussed family issues. Knowing that this man had lost the love of his life makes me want to hold on to Rose` and go even harder to protect her. Thug is a real thorough ass nigga so I know he’s holding shit down, but the hurt in his eyes was evident. He makes a nigga want to have a house full of kids. It amazes me how he’s raising seven kids and doing a damn good job at it. Tahari would be so proud of him. Those kids love him. I know that Ka’Jaiyah is going to Miss Heaven. They were in the same class until they kicked her little bad butt out. I promised her that she could come for a visit once we settled in. Despite having my own crew, Thug had some of his people in Miami on standby if I needed him. Like I said, he was a real ass nigga and I fucks with him and his people.

  “Baby, this house is absolutely amazing but it’s too much for the three of us.”

  “Nothing is too much for you. You’re a queen and you deserve a castle. Come here and give me a kiss.” Rose` wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me on the lips. I lifted her up and sat her on the countertop in the kitchen. Since she was wearing a short dress I was able to pull her dress up over her waist. I tried to get her panties down but she kept squirming.

  “Remy we can’t. Heaven is upstairs and you know she’ll be coming down here at any minute. It’s cool baby, we have all night. I promise you I’m going to do that dick real dirty tonight.”

  “Damn I can’t wait!” We both laughed and I let her down off the countertop. I made sure to slap her on that fat ass before she walked away.

  Since things were squared away at the house, I decided to go and meet up with the private investigator that I had hired. Peanut and Boo came along as well. It was a must we get out here and straight to the business at hand.

  “How are y’all feeling about this move?” I asked as we passed a blunt around.

  “I’m loving this shit. It’s a breath of fresh air from Chicago. I’m glad Kim gave in and let Parrish come with us. Neicee has really been a trooper about all of this. I’m not going to lie though, her ass got me scared. I wait until her ass goes to sleep and then I go to sleep. That bitch is crazy.

  “Get yo scary ass out of here nigga!” Boo said and we all started to laugh.

  “Hell yeah. I’m scared. When she was stabbing my ass she looked like that bitch on The Exorcist. I was just waiting for pea soup to fly out of her mouth.”

  “I don’t know why you laughing Boo. Honey gone drive your ass crazy.”

  “Hell yeah. That bitch T-Pained my ass and made me fall in love with a stripper. She gone make me kill her smart-mouthed ass.”

  “Let’s just face it; we got three angry birds on our hands. Put that shit out. Let’s go in here and see what Bruno got for me.” We all exited the car and went inside the office.

  *****

  “Tell me something good Bruno?”

  “Mr. Ramirez, I’m glad you made it out here. I have some very important information for you. Please have a seat.” We all sat down and he slid a manila folder across the table to me. I opened it and there were pictures of Ava with two kids. There was picture after picture of her with these two small children. One looked to be about one or two years old and the other one looked to be smaller. He was being carried. Ava doesn’t have any kids so I didn’t understand whose kids she would have. Both kids had to be kin because they were identical. The more I stared at the picture, the more of a resemblance I saw to me. I passed the pictures to Peanut and Boo.

  “Bruno, please help me to understand how this bitch has two kids that resemble me and I’ve never known her to have kids.”

  “Now that I don’t know. Here is her daily schedule. For months I’ve followed her around and I know her schedule. She rarely has security with her. I’ve watched her with those kids and she is very mean to the smaller of the two. I’ve sat in the park and watched her yell at him because he cries a lot. Instead of her soothing him she allows him to scream until he gets tired. I don’t know what’s going on but if those are your kids, you need to get them out of her clutches. That woman has no maternal instincts whatsoever. Here is the address that I have on her. I have another assignment so I must go, but call me if you need me.

  After leaving Bruno’s office, we all sat around in the conference room at my new headquarters. We were all quiet as we continued to look at the pictures. I stared at the baby in the picture and I didn’t want to even speak on what I was thinking. The shit would be ridiculous and highly unlikely.

  “Are you going to show Rose`?” Peanut asked as he continued to stare at the picture.

  “We’re all thinking the same shit but too afraid to speak on it. I say we go out on a limb and show her. A mother knows their child. If that’s little cuz, he should be with his parents not with that bitch.”

  “You’re right Boo, but how can I show this t
o her? Rose` is going to have a fit. This shit might send her over the edge. She just got back to being herself.”

  “We can’t keep it from her bro. Rose` will never forgive us if we don’t tell her.”

  “I’m not going to keep it from her. We’re in a really good place and she finally trusts me again. This is so fucked up. If that bitch has Remy Jr., who is the dead baby whose DNA matched mine?”

  “Let’s just focus on one thing at a time. Right now our focus is on the two kids the bitch has. I’m about to get up out of here. Neicee blowing my phone up. I’ll get up with you niggas in the morning.”

  “I’m outta here too. I hope Honey is sleep. All she want to do is fuck. My damn dick hurt like a motherfucker.” We all laughed and dapped each other up. I sat in my office a little while longer just thinking and staring at the picture of the little baby boy. After a while, I gathered all of the pictures and put them back inside of the folder. When I made it home, Heaven and Rose` were asleep on the couch. I decided not to wake them up because they looked so peaceful. Instead I went upstairs and took a shower. I just stood under the water letting it fall over my body. The entire time I thought about how I was going to show those pictures to Rose`. After a while, I got out and Rose` was lying in bed sound asleep. I kissed her on the forehead and laid across the bed so that my head was resting on her stomach. Not long after I dosed off. In the middle of the night I woke to Heaven climbing in bed with us.

  The next morning I woke up to Heaven still in bed asleep with me and Rose` gone. I looked around the big house and she was nowhere to be found. At first I thought that she probably ran an errand but I knew that wasn’t the case. She always woke me up or left a note. I looked on the dresser and realized the folder was gone.

  “Fuck! Fuck!” I kicked the dresser several times which made Heaven stir in her sleep. I was so glad she didn’t wake up. I grabbed my phone and started calling Rose`, but she kept sending me to voicemail. I already knew what time it was. I hit up Peanut and Boo and told them what was up and not to tell Honey and Niecee. I got dressed and strapped up. I didn’t even put Heaven on any clothes. I just grabbed her and rushed out of the house. I kept trying to get in contact with Rose` with no luck. I just prayed that she didn’t do anything that would get her hurt. I rushed out the door to get in my car but Rose`’s car was sitting in the driveway. I took a closer look and she was sitting inside of her car.

  “I’m really tired Daddy!”

  “Go get back in your bed baby. I’ll bring you some cereal in a minute.” I kissed her on the forehead and she went back to her bedroom. I exhaled before I walked over to the driver’s side of Rose` car and opened it. She had the pictures in her lap and she had a blank stare on her face.

  “Come in the house Ma.” I reached in and picked her up. I carried her bridal style into the house and up to our bedroom. I sat her down on the bed and I got down on my knees in front of her.

  “I wanted to go to that address on those documents so bad. However, I didn’t want my emotions to fuck up whatever you have planned. Go get our son and bring him home safe. As far as the bitch Ava goes, you bring her back to me. I want my face to be the last face she sees before I blow her motherfucking brains out.” I stared into my wife’s eyes and I knew she was dead serious. I had to make sure that was our son though.

  “Are you sure that’s him?”

  “A mother knows her child. He has a strawberry shaped birthmark on his lower leg. In the picture I can see the birthmark clear as day. That’s my baby. Please Remy, go get him now!” Rose` started to cry and I pulled her in to my embrace and held her tight.

  “Shhh! Stop crying. I’m going to get him back here safely to you. I need you to calm down. I’m about to roll over there with Peanut and Boo. I won’t be able to answer my phone but please know that everything is cool. I can’t be distracted going in because there is no room for fuck ups. Stay here with Heaven and keep your phone with you at all times. I’m going to lock the house up and turn the alarm on. I don’t know when I’ll be back but trust and believe me I’m not coming back empty handed. Let me hear you tell me that you trust me.”

  “I trust you baby. Now go before I start crying again.” We hugged and kissed each other for a couple of more seconds.

  “I love you Rose`.

  “I love you more Remy.” With that being said, I kissed her one last time and I was out the door, ready to get my motherfucking son back. It sounded so easy but I knew this bitch Ava wasn’t about to make it easy for a nigga.

  Chapter 14- Rose`

  This morning when I woke up, the only thing I had on my mind was doing something nice for Remy. That man has gone above and beyond to show how much he loves me and our daughter. I had planned on cooking a big ass dinner and inviting the family over. I had purchased him a Presidential Rolex to add to his collection. When I got out of bed to use the washroom, I stubbed my toe on the side of the dresser. That made me bump into it and knock the folder onto the floor. As I kneeled down to pick it up, I realized it was a picture of the bitch Ava. Despite me wanting to kill her ass, she looked as if she had just stepped off the runway. I had to give the bitch her props, she was flawless. Since there were more pictures I started to go through all of them.

  One picture in particular caught my eye. Ava was holding a small child’s hand and carrying a baby on her hip. I stared at the picture for a couple of minutes. I knew from the moment I laid eyes on the smaller little boy, he was my son. A mother knows these things. The birthmark on his leg was confirmation of what I had already known. I wanted to scream out but I covered my mouth and let the tears fall freely. Looking at the other little boy I couldn’t help but to take in his appearance. He was the splitting image of my son. They looked like Remy. My stomach immediately began to ache. I became so nauseous that I had to run into the bathroom and vomit. The thought of that other little boy being my husband’s, made me sick to my stomach. I don’t know how I could deal with Remy having a baby with the bitch Ava. There is definitely a possibility that she could have a baby by him. The baby looks to be about two going on three. Call me petty but I can give less than a fuck if it was before my time. My son is supposed to be his first born son. Any other rug rat is irrelevant.

  I sat on the floor in shock at the realization that this bitch had my son all this time. Here it is we’ve been grieving him and she’s been raising him as her own. Anger set in and I started to get dressed. I threw on an all-black jogging suit and a pair of black leather UGGS. I grabbed the folder and rushed out of the door. When I got inside the car, I found a paper with her address on it and her daily agenda. Another picture of my son smiling brought tears to my eyes. It was then reality set in and I could hear Remy saying that he was going to handle it. Remy had been doing everything in his power to make things right with us. I made a promise to him that I wouldn’t let my emotions get in the way and I would let him handle things. I wanted to rush over to that address and snatch my son and kill her ass. However, I knew I needed to let Remy handle this his way. I didn’t realize I had been sitting in my car in a daze, until Remy came and got me out. No matter what was going on at that moment, our love became stronger than ever before. There was no doubt in my mind that he will bring my baby back safe and sound.

  It had only been a little over two hours since Remy left, but to me it felt like an eternity. I know that he told me to stay in the house with Heaven, but my nerves were too bad and I was starting to have bad thoughts that something was going to go wrong. At first everything was cool and then I started to have a feeling that something was going to go wrong. I needed to get out of the house. I packed us up some clothes and some personal items. I made sure I had my phone and my charger. I couldn’t risk missing Remy’s call. I drove way past the speed limit getting to Honey and Boo’s house. Neicee was already there with the kids. I was glad we were all together while our niggas were out holding court in the streets.

  *****

  “I still can’t believe he’s alive,” Neicee said
as she took a sip from her wine glass. She insists on having a glass of red wine a day. She claims the doctor told her it was okay. I think she just wants to drink. That baby is going to come out crazy just like her.

  “Me either. He’s not going to even know me. He thinks that bitch is his mother.” That was one of those bad thoughts that I was having. My son probably wouldn’t even like me.

  “Don’t worry. A baby knows their mother’s scent. Everything is going to be okay.” Neicee gave me a big hug and it made me more relaxed.

  “This is what I don’t understand. If Remy Jr. is still alive, who is the dead baby that they found?” My hand immediately went to the necklace around my neck. Honey had put some deep shit on my mind that I hadn’t even thought about. Remy’s DNA matched the dead baby, so that could only mean one thing. He had another female pregnant and got the bitch pregnant while we were together. The only question is who did he get pregnant? I couldn’t let that bother me right now. All I want to do is get my son and my husband back home safe and sound. Not to mention Boo and Peanut. They’re the closest thing I have to brothers and I can’t lose them.

  “Oh shit! I think I’m going to be sick.” Honey jumped off the couch and ran full speed ahead to the bathroom. Neicee and I jumped up and ran after her.

  “Are you pregnant bitch?” I asked as I pulled her hair up while she vomited.

  “Yeah, I am.”

  “Boo is going to have a fit,” Neicee said as she turned on the water in the sink and wet a towel for her.

  “Why is he going to have a fit? If anything he’s going to be so happy. Finally, he’ll have a son or daughter like Remy and Peanut.”

  “He doesn’t want any kids right now. I stopped taking my birth control pills so that I could get pregnant.” I couldn’t believe what Honey was saying to me right now. This shit was definitely about hit the fan.

  “So you trapped him?”

  “Trapped is such a harsh word to use.” We all laughed when Honey said that because her ass knew she had trapped Boo.
