“You real mouthy tonight. I guess them new niggas done boosted yo head up.”
“Somebody had too. The nigga I was fucking with was too busy creeping behind my back.” Pushing me back Nariah tipped out the living room.
“Just tell me. I promise I won’t be mad.” I said and trailed her down the hall. “If you fucked him, you just did.” I was gone be pissed the fuck off if Nariah let that nigga touch her. On my soul I was gone pissed.
“Julius if I cared anything about you being mad I would do better at hiding shit.” Peeling off her pants she tossed them in the dirty clothes hamper and unlatched her AP. Sitting down at the vanity she placed it in her jewelry box and proceeded to take her earrings off. “I’m single if you haven’t noticed.”
“So, in other words you did fuck him.” I based.
Shooting a dagger right through my heart she hissed. “Yeah, Julius I fucked Flocco and if you hadn’t of interrupted me, I was getting ready to let Dip eat my pussy.” She stared at me through her vanity mirror. “Happy now?”
My heart wanted to believe she was lying but I knew she wasn’t. Nariah knew I was missing a few screws, ain’t no way she would’ve said no shit like that if it wasn’t true. I wanted to wrap my hands around Nariah’s neck. On God I did. But I couldn’t ‘cause that would fuck Juju up. “You a slut ass bitch.” I barked. As mad as I was, I’m surprised spit wasn’t slinging out of my mouth. I had to force my hands in my pocket to keep them from shaking.
“Nigga we one in the same. Difference is I waited until I was single before I did my dirt.”
Mushing her head with my finger I gritted. “Fuck you. On God fuck you!” I had to bite down on my lip to keep from crying. “If you wanted to fuck with a nigga in the industry you should’ve got at that nigga Drake at least you would’ve got a bag or something out of the deal. Ya know–how the rest of these hoes do.”
“And unlike the rest of these hoes I’on need a nigga for a bag. I got my own.” Standing from her chair Nariah looked me up and down before turning to walk away. “I suggest you be gone before I get out of the shower. APD dying for another reason to arrest your ass.”
“Yeah, aight slut!” I bellowed. The way Nariah and I had just talked to each other it was clear it wasn’t meant for us to reconcile. I’m thinking I had me a good girl, whole time Nariah was just like the rest of these sluts out here. I was good off her ass. If it wasn’t ‘bout Juju I ain’t want to parts in it.
Murderous thoughts were running through my head when I left Nariah’s condo, leaving me faced with one of two options. I could go find Flocco and put one in his head or go to the studio and let my frustrations out. Taking the nigga out was what my head said to do but visions of me getting locked up and disappointing Juju flashed through my mind, ultimately making the decision for me.

“Jude!”I shrieked. “Not you cheating.” I giggled.
“What?” He feigned clueless.
“Don’t what me.” Swiping him up from the ground I twirled him around until he begged for me to stop. “Yo lil ass took off before I said go.” I breathed. I placed Jude down on the bench and sat beside him. “You having fun?”
“Yes ma’am.” He nodded and I smiled.
This morning Jude woke me up and asked if I could bring him to Andretti’s. My baby loved going to the arcade. I didn’t have anything to do today so after the two of us had breakfast I called and had the place shut down so we could enjoy the park without having to deal with a bunch of people in our face. To make his day I went ahead and invited both of his grannies. Unbeknownst to me Jude had called and invited his father and his uncles.
Before they even pulled up, I hit Tito up and let him know that it would be in their best interest to keep Julius far, far, far away from me. After the way he showed his ass at my house the other night I didn’t have two words to say to him. So far, they had been doing a good job.
The few times Jude had both of us together Julius would mumble something under his breath. His ass knew not to say the shit out loud, or we would end up turning Andretti’s the fuck out. I had heard through Lox that Tamia wasn’t pregnant. Apparently, she’d gotten her cycle the day after Julius had her pissing on a test. Good for him.
“Can we bowl next?” Jude asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.
“Sure can baby.”
“Yay!” He cheered before hopping down to run off. Taking a minute to check my notifications I blushed at a message from Dip.
Dip: A nigga hard down missing you right now
Me: Is that so?”
Dip: It is… You gon’ come kick it with me later?
Me: Where you gon’ be at?
Dip: Highrise
Me: Yeah… I’ll see if my mama can stay over my house with Jude until I get back.
