“
You should call a nigga sometime, we can be friends right?” He had guileless smile on his face but he wasn’t fooling me. I knew the type of friend men tried to make of other men’s women and it involved sweaty limbs and rumpled sheets, so he was definitely barking up the wrong tree.
“
Ok.” I delivered my third lie since we started talking and this time it was accompanied by a smile. He nodded and smiled in return, thinking his mission was accomplished.
We
maneuvered through the gyrating bodies on the dance floor and made our way back to our party. As soon as we got there Tyga pulled me onto his lap, wrapping his arms around me and kissed my neck.
“
That took you a minute, what happened did you fall in? I was getting worried you’d miss the countdown.” His tone was light and teasing but I knew it was only a mask for his suspicious nature.
“
I was fixing my hair that you messed up.” I did fix my hair but it only took a second, but I wasn’t going to tell him about my chat with Kit, it would only make him pointlessly mad.
“
How come you came back with Kit?” he whispered in my ear.
“
We ran into each other on my way back,” I said softly.
He gave me another kiss on my neck.
“Remember what I said.” I nodded. “Good.” He really didn’t need to remind me to stay away from Kitsune because as flattered as I was by his attention, I wasn’t about to let anyone put my relationship in jeopardy.
At eleven fifty-nine someone started the countdown to midnight on their IPhone. We all joined in and sang out the last ten seconds. When the clock struck midnight my bay held my face between his hands and gave me a long deep toe curling kiss that made my pussy instantly wet.
“Happy new year Sexy, your nigga loves you.” He had a smile on his sexy lips as he stared into my eyes.
“
Happy new year bay and I love you more.” I pulled him in for a hug and when I looked over his shoulder both Boss and Kitsune were watching us.
Everyone sported a glass of the rose Ace of Spades Delco had popped at midnight and we continued parting the night away.
I looked over at my cousin Daisy laughing and talking with her man and I was very thankful that I still had her by my side. I looked to Keya and promised myself to stay out of her lane because of her deceitful ways. I would also be avoiding both Boss and Kitsune like they had the plague. I thought about Mina and wondered what she was doing at the moment. I had called her earlier but she didn’t answer her phone as usual.
Although a lot of things were messed up in my life, I had some things to be thankful for also and I was happy with that.
Tyga and I didn’t get home until six in the morning. We took a quick shower to wash the smoke and sweat off and crawled into bed. We were out in no time. The ringing of his cell phone woke us hours later.
“
Are you gonna answer that?” I mumbled, pushing on his shoulder.
“
Nah, hopefully it will stop ringing,” he grumbled, pulling a pillow over his head. “I got me a damn head ache.”
But he had no such luck because the phone just kept on ringing until it went to voice mail and then the caller would just call back.
He got out of bed and liberated his phone from the pocket of the jacket he was wearing the night before.
“
What,” he snapped at the caller at the end of the line. “What the fuck, are you sure?” There was a pause that suggested the person on the line was speaking. “I’m on my way.” He had tears in his eyes when he looked over at me.
“
What’s wrong?” I asked worriedly as I hurried from the bed and over to him.
“
Someone shot my pops last night killing him.”
CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE
ANGEL
He was hitting it from behind and I had just had a screaming orgasm squirting my juices all over his dick
when the sound of crying came from the baby monitor sitting on the bedside table.
“
Oh Sexy wait I’m about to come,” Tyga pleaded, because he knew when my baby cried his mommy always ran to him. Plus I had already busted my nut.
“
Hurry up, you know I hate when he has to cry too long.”
“
If you let a nigga enjoy his nut I’ll take care of him for you when I’m done,” he groaned, pounding into me as he held firmly to my hips. I clenched my pussy muscles around his dick and met him stroke for stroke to hurry his orgasm along. It didn’t take him long to explode inside of me, professing the greatness of his pussy because he swore his name was written all over my kitty kat.
“
Damn, I love that your pussy always grips my dick like a vise,” he said as he rolled off me and onto his back, catching his breath.
I propped myself up with my elbows and looked down at him.
“Nigga you better find yourself over to the nursery and take care of your son.” Our son’s screams were still coming from the monitor.
He
kissed the frown on my lips and tweaked my nipple. “Your man got you Sexy stop bitching.” He got out of bed and pulled on some boxers. “Prepare for round two when I get back.” I threw a pillow at him as he retreated from the room which caused him to laugh at me. I lay back in bed smiling.
We were
living in Montville NJ in Tyga’s childhood home. His father left the house to my bay in his will along with a ton of money. He also left him custody of his sixteen year old brother Chance. Chance was sometimes a handful to deal with but we were managing. He wasn’t taking the murder of his father too well. After months of investigation by both the police and Tyga they were no closer to finding out who killed Ricky. Someone broke into the house on New Year’s Eve night and emptied a clip into him. It was very hard on my bay at first, dealing with his grief and also trying to be there for his brother. I tried to give him as much support as possible but it wasn’t until two months ago when our son was born that I saw his spirits improving.
He was such a hands on dad
and he shouldered half the responsibility of caring for little Ricky. I was still in high school when our son was born. Tyga took care of him during the day while I was in school and helped out even when I got home if I needed to study or had extra homework. The experience only strengthened my love for him, because I knew from his actions that he was going to be there for me when I needed him. I graduated high school with a B average and was looking forward to entering nursing school come September.
“
He’s out like a light again,” Tyga announced as he got back in bed. He pulled me closer to him and then rolled on top of me. “Time for round two.” I wasn’t gonna deny my man his pussy so we fucked again this time I was perched on the edge of the bed.
The next morning I was standing by the kitchen counter making our son a bottle when my bay came home from the gym sweaty and wearing a look of contentment.
“Who’s daddy’s big boy?” He made kissy faces at our son who was lying in his rocker on the kitchen counter. Ricky smiled up at his daddy with dribble running down the side of his mouth. He was the cutest baby in the world and looked just like his dad. They both had the same dark coffee complexion, hazel eyes and nose. They even had the same mole on their right ass cheek. My baby was like a miniature of his father. “My son needs a little brother or sister to play with. When’re you going to give me another baby?”
I chuckled as I passed him the baby bottle so he could feed our son.
“I just gave birth to that one only two and a half months ago. Don’t you think it’s a bit premature expecting another one? Plus I’m not having another baby until I get married.” I placed bacon on the heated skillet and cracked eggs into a bowl for whisking.
“
So you’re telling me not having a piece of paper and a ring prevents you from living your life?” His voice sounded curious.
“
I’m saying that you could leave my ass anytime you want and then I would be left with two babies and no means to care for them. You know I’m starting nursing school in September. How can I manage school, Ricky, plus another pregnancy?” I threw the eggs in another pan and scrambled them.
“
Sexy, I already told you I ain’t ever leaving you,” he assured me, using a corner of the baby’s blanket to wipe his drool. It wasn’t that I didn’t believe him, it was more that people never knew how they were gonna feel in the future.
Of course he felt like he couldn
’t live without me now, but sometimes feelings changed. I didn’t want to end up with two babies and no job. That’s why I was going to school, so I had a career to take care of myself and my son if god forbid things ended with Tyga. If we were married, then half of everything he owned would automatically become mine and I would be able to care for my children even if we parted ways, so I wasn’t having another baby unless I got that ring.
“
Bay, I’m not even going to argue with you about this. No ring, no baby, end of discussion.” I was fixing plates with scrambled eggs, bacon and toast when his brother walked in putting a hold on our discussion. Chance was like clockwork, he knew exactly when to show up for breakfast.
“
Something smells great,” Chance praised, as he grabbed the orange juice from the fridge and drank directly from the carton.
“
Seriously Chance, that’s disgusting,” I proclaimed, swiping the juice from his hand and filling a glass for Tyga. I placed a full plate and the glass before my bay.
“
Thanks Sexy.” Tyga smacked me on the ass.
“
I ain’t got any cooties or anything.” Chance chuckled, taking a seat at the counter. I placed a plate of breakfast before him also. “How is my little nigga today?” he inquired of Ricky, who gave him a smile showing nothing but gums.
I got myself some pineapple juice and my plate and took a seat at the counter also. I pulled my baby
’s rocker closer to me, popped his pacifier in his mouth and kissed him on his bald head.
“
What did you get into last night?” Tyga asked Chance.
“
Don’t remember,” he mumbled in reply. Odds were he spent the night up in Harlem running the streets with the fools he’d been hanging with lately getting into trouble.
“
I know for a fact you were up to no good last night because Delco saw you and your boys riding around in a BMW that ya’ll probably jacked off the streets. You won’t stop until you get your damn self arrested.”
“
Can a nigga please enjoy his breakfast and not get reamed on?” Chance grumbled.
“
Can you drop me off at the shop later bay? I need to get my hair done,” I interrupted their argument because I knew it was just gonna escalate with no resolution. Chance did whatever he wanted no matter how many times Tyga argued with him about his behavior.
It was kinda like my relationship with Mina. She was still acting like a party girl and refused to attend rehab. She was even still messing with Boss although he was messing with Keya
. People never listened unless they really wanted to.
“
Who’s gonna watch the baby while you get your hair done? I got a meeting later so I can’t watch him.” He was peeved at me for disturbing his conversation.
“
I’ll watch him,” Chance offered.
Ther
e was no way in hell I would leave my baby with his irresponsible ass. “I think I’ll pass on that one.”
“
See, ya’ll don’t give me any props,” he complained.
I rolled my eyes at him.
“I’ll take him to the shop with me.” It was the first time I was taking him there and I knew everyone would just love him. “So am I getting the ride?”
Tyga nodded yes.
Later that day, I was sitting in Theresa
’s chair while Nancy, who was between clients, fussed over Ricky. Daisy was in the style chair beside me getting some curls in her weave.
“
I just can’t get over how much this boy looks like his daddy,” Nancy said for what seemed like the hundredth time. “You’re daddy’s boy aren’t you?” she tickled his sides causing him to smile and squirm.
“
How come you don’t look like you just had a baby? Your body looks the way it did before you got pregnant.” Theresa asked me. She was using the curling iron to add huge loose curls to my hair.
“
Because I’ve been going to the gym; I wasn’t about to let my figure go to waste,” I boasted jokingly. Daisy and I joined a gym in Harlem and have been attending religiously. My girl lost fifteen pounds since she started and I lost my baby weight and got my twenty-four inch waistline back. I didn’t get any stretch marks from my pregnancy, so I knew I would be banging in a swimsuit this summer.
“
Your shit is always on point,” Nancy commented. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen you slip in your appearance.”
“
That’s because I got you bitches hooking me up all the time,” I told them truthfully.
“
I’ll take my props for that one,” my stylist joked, popping her collar. “On another note though, did we tell ya’ll the latest yet?” I’d been waiting since I stepped into their shop for them to drop some gossip on me. Every time I stopped by there was something new, so I knew this time wouldn’t be any different.
