"A'ight, blood. Bye, Marissa."
She waved at me, then I left. I climbed into my Roll's Royce, but, before I could close the door, I had to peep the drama that had followed me out of the club.
"Yo, what I tell you about acting all crazy like that?" some dude yelled, dragging a girl out of the club by her hair.
"Darius, stop, you're hurting me!"
That voice sounded familiar.
"I'm hurtin' you? You don't think I was hurt when I came out the bathroom and saw you gettin' busy with some with some nigga on the dancefloor?"

"Darius get off of me." She yelled and that's when I saw it was Carmen.
"Ay my man let her go." I said to him.
"Mind your damn buisness." He said looking at me sideways. "Who is this your man? You know to many niggas for me you out here being a hoe huh?"

"I said let her go."
He ignored me and continued yelling at Carmen. I took off my Rolex watch and stuffed it into my pocket before running up to him and punching him in the jaw. I put him in a headlock before he could retaliate.
"Go get in my car, Carmen," I ordered.

She ran to my Rolls Royce and me and him tussled all over the parking lot. He thought he had a grip on me then I bust him in the side of the head and hit him so hard in the nose I could hear it break. He fell back on the ground in agony. I put my watch back on, got in my car and sped off.
"Do you know who that was?" Carmen said.
"No and I don't give a fuck because no man should ever be putting his hands on a female. Don't let him touch you like that again."
"Listen he's a big man around here, you don't know what you're getting in to."

"Naw, he don't know what he's getting into. The next time I see him, I might just bust one in his face. Him and his niggas better be ready when we meet again."
"Look, I don't know how ya'll do it where you're from, but down here, you're supposed to kill someone if you do something like that. Otherwise, they'll kill you when they get the chance. What you did was stupid, and I didn't need your help."
"You didn't need my help?"
"That's right. You ain't no Captain Save A Broad!"

I brought my car to a screetching halt and turned to face Carmen. "So what you're telling me is you like being treated like trash? You think its normal to get beat on and get called a hoe and whatever else? Dude has you're mind fucked. He has you wrapped around his finger and you just can't see that, can you?"

"My relationship is none of your business. He wasn't gonna do anything to me."
"He wasn't gonna... shorty, he was already doing it!

"Whatever can you just drop me off? You know what I'm getting out." She said as she reached for the handle.
I locked the door and kept driving. "Where do you live?" I asked.

When she realized she wasn't getting out of the car, she slumped in her seat and told me her address.
"I'm new here. You have to give me directions."
She instructed me on where to go. I pulled into the parking lot of an apartment complex a few minutes later.

She tried to get out but I locked the door. "Listen, you need to get out of this situation before it gets out of town."
"No you listen...! What's your name?"
"Jody."
"No you listen Jody I'm fine. Just let me be. Now let me out the car." She said as I unlocked the door and watched her walk up the steps to her apartment.

I shook my head as she walked inside. I hated seeing insecure females like her. She was beautiful, and she didn't even realize it. I drove towards my house, where my kids were with Cornell's little cousin. When I went inside, they were all asleep on the pull-out couch. I thought about waking them, but opted against it. I just went upstairs, showered, and went to bed.

"Dang, at least I don't have to worry about getting you any product," Cornell said, looking at all the drugs in my basement.

"Yeah man I told you I came prepared. I ain't about playing games," I said,
"I see, so you go your people?"
"Well I had my connections built before I came so I had some people pushing while I was back in Jersey before I came here."

"Alright... straight. You need to get this stuff out of your house while your sons are here, though. But don't touch it. I can call some dudes to take it to one of my trap houses."
"Bet that up."
"How many people you got selling this stuff?"
"So far, about twenty. Why?"

"Just making sure you don't have to many hands on your product but twenty is a good number."
"Never that man, my people are loyal I only choose the best."
We closed the basement door and came upstairs where my sons were sitting and watching television.

Lil Jody, my four-year-old, looked at me and Cornell. Jordan, who was two, kept his eyes fixed on Spongebob. "Daddy, can we watch something else?" Lil Jody asked. He'd never been into cartoons like Jordan was. He was more into Leverage and Psych. The only cartoons he enjoyed were The Boondocks and Family Guy.
"When this goes off," I replied.

He sucked his teeth and folded his arms.
"Fix your face didn't I say when this goes off?" I said.
"Yes." He replied and unfolded his arms.

Cornell sat next to them on the floor and hugged them. "I'ma get at ya'll later on. I love ya'll. Be good, okay?"
"Okay," they replied.
I gave Cornell dap before escorting him out the door. "Later, man."
"A'ight. One."

Lil Jody's mother was supposed to be calling me to let me know how things were going up in Jersey. I didn't want any bad news either. As soon as I went to make my boys some lunch my phone rang.
"What's good with you?" I said answering.
"Hey Jody." My baby mother said.
"Wassup Meesha what's the status?"
"Everything is good they just pushed in a new shipment and it's all ready put away and ready to be shipped. You will have it on the first for sure."
"Okay when I get it, you will get your twenty g's."
"That's fine so how's my baby?"
"I told you to stop calling that boy a baby."
"Shut up Jody where is my son? Let me talk to him."
"Hold one I'm going to put you on speaker."
"Lil Jody!" She said.
"Hi mommy."
"How you been?"
"I'm good."
"I miss you. What are you doing?"
"Watching TV."
"You're being good right?"
"Mhmmm."
"Okay baby love you."
"Love you too mommy."
I took the phone off speaker and got back on the line. "You cool?"
"Yeah thanks and take good care of him."
"Didn't I tell you I got this before I left?"
"Yeah."
"Okay trust me then."
"Okay Jody...bye."
I hung up the phone and proceeded to cook my boys some lunch. I made them both peanut butter and jelly sandwitches and gave them some chips and fruit punch on the side.
