Official Girl 3 (3 page)

Six damn months later and my sister still laying in that damn hospital bed. Mykell hired a damn private investigator to find out where his hoe ass baby mama and that bitch ass nigga
are. Lakey, Howie, Corey and Jason damn near moved up here. They’ve been here ever since I called them. I knew I had some real niggas on my team. We’re all at Mykell’s house just chilling and talking shit. 

“Man, I’ll be happy when Lani have my daughter. Her and them damn weird food cravings she be having starting to get crazy
,” I said. 

“Her ass always been a weird eater
,” Mack laughed. 

“Hell yea, she wouldn’t eat macaroni unless it had pickles in it when we were little.”
 

“What the fuck?” Jason laughed.
 

“That’s nothing, she be eating pickles dipped in ice cream and shit.” I shook my head.
 

‘I’m happy Neicey never had no weird cravings, her ass was just evil.” Mykell laughed.
 

“I want me some bad ass lil kids running around one day
,” Mack said out of nowhere. 

“What about Tasha? Y’all been hanging pretty tough for the past four months
,” I inquired. 

“Yea but I gotta
feel her out some more. I be trynna get Lani to meet her and get her opinion but after that shit Kell pulled, she ain’t going,” he said referring to Lisa. 

“Don’t blame that on me.”
 

“It is your fault, you had that girl thinking she was yo girl and she meant something to you.” Mack laughed.
 

“I’m happy I don’t have any baby mama drama
,” Lakey said. 

“Shut up,” Corey said hitting his brother on the back of the head. “You and Mack the only two niggas here that ain’t got no kids.”
 

“I ain’t in no rush.”
  

“Being a father is one of the most beautiful things in this world. I wake up every morning, look at MJ and Mell and
am proud that I’m a father. Even though that damn Romell got his mama attitude.” Everyone laughed. 

The laughter came to an end when Mykell’s phone
rang. “It’s the PI.” 

“Hello?”
 

He looked at all of us then smiled.
 

“Okay
me and my brothers are on the way now.” He hung up and jumped off the couch. “Let’s go y’all. He said he got something we might want to hear.” 

                                                                      *    *    * 

It took us about 30 minutes to get to
his office. I was sitting on pins wondering what information he had for us.  

“Welcome gentlemen
,” he greeted us. 

“What you got for us?” Mykell asked getting straight to the point.
 

“I found both of them. I called in a favor from a friend of
mine out in Cali and he tracked your man down. Also I found your Ms. Olivia Moss but I took me some pictures just to make sure it was her,” he said sliding Mykell an envelope. 

Mykell opened the envelope and looked through the pictures. “What the fuck!” he suddenly said. That got everyone’s attention.
 

“Ain’t this about a bitch?” I said out loud.
 

“What man?” Mack asked me.
 

“When was this picture taken?” I held up the picture so the PI could see.
 

“Yesterday.”
 

“Okay, thank you,” I said going into my pocket and taking out some money
, paying for his services. 

“Come on y’all
,” I said getting up. 

“Man what you see in them pictures?” Corey asked me.
 

“We’ll talk when we get back to the house.”
 

When we got back to the house, everyone was anxious to hear what I seen in the pictures.
 

“Okay, I know Mack knows but I’m not sure about the rest of y’all,” I took a deep breath. “Before me and Reneice got together, she was messing with a nigga named Quamir. I guess you can say I snatched
her and when me and Neicey started going strong, it’s like this nigga fell off the face of the earth. Or so I thought.” 

“So what that nigga go to do with this?” Lakey asked.
 

“Don’t tell me his ass was working with Olivia too?” Mack said.
 

“Well I guess I don’t have to tell you, you just hit it dead on
,” I confirmed handing him the pictures. 

“So one of them muthafuckas must be the one who raped Ladybug
,” Mone said. 

“I’m on the same page as yo
u Mone. My bets are on Q but I still feel some type of way about that nigga Kamil,” I agreed.

“Let me see
them pictures so I can see what this nigga look like,” Corey said. 

“Me too, Ladybug never said nothing bout this Q nigga to me.”
 

“Word?” Mack asked shocked.
 

“Hell naw! And I know about every nigga she’s ever dealt with, even when she tried to keep it a secret
, but this Q is a mystery to me.” 

“Well I wanna stake
out and watch where these dumb muthafuckas be at. See what else I can find out before we make our move.” 

Everyone
agreed. This shit was getting even crazier. This nigga that I was supposed to be cool with did some foul shit to my girl, but for what though? 

“Mone, bring me some chocolate syrup. Please.”
  

I was having another weird ass craving. We’re supposed to be on our way to the hospital to see Neicey but I keep having the urge to pee every five minutes.
 

“You and these craving are driving me crazy. I’ll be happy when you go back to eating normal.”
 

I wanted to reply with a real smart ass comment but I couldn’t, I was stuck.
It couldn’t be.
 

“What’s wrong baby?” he asked concerned.
 

I looked down and he must have followed my eyes and seen the big wet spot.
 

“Oh shit! It’s time!” he yelled.
 

“Call the doctor while I change my clothes. Luckily I’m not in any pain right now
,” I said walking into the closet to find some sweat pants to change into. 

“They said to bring you in when your contractions are five minutes apart.”
 

“Why are you so calm? You act like you’ve done this before
,” I said with a questioning look. 

He laughed. “Chill, I was only eight years old when I seen Ladybug born
, so I know what to expect.” 

“Well . . . AHHHH!” I held my stomach and leant over in pain.
 

“Yo ass having contractions now huh?” Ramone laughed like this shit was funny.

“We are NEVER having sex ever again.” 

“Whatever man. Imma grab the bag so we can be ready to go.”
 

Twenty minutes later I was laying in the hospital bed feeling like my insides were about to fall out.
 

“I can’t do this shit. This look worse than it did the first time I seen it happen
,” Ramone said looking like he was about to pass out. 

“Nigga please! You did this shit so you better suck it the fuck up and stay yo black ass right here
,” I said through gritted teeth. 

“Okay, Ms. Jones. You are fully dilated so now it’s time to push.”
 

I did three big pushes
but it seemed like she didn’t want to come out. “Somebody get this baby out of me!” I yelled out in pain. This shit was the worst pain ever.

“Alright
, I see the head. One more big push for me.”

I pushed one more time and it felt like this little girl had ripped me a new asshole.
I was overjoyed when I heard my baby cry, it was like music to my ears. I thought I was done but they told me I had to push the afterbirth out. Ramone followed the nurses when they took our daughter to be cleaned off. I was feeling tired as hell.

“Who knew I could create something so beautiful
?” Ramone beamed like a proud father when he walked back over to me, kissing me on the forehead.

“She is
beautiful. Welcome to the world Ranyla Love Peake,” I said to my baby when they put her on my chest. 

“Is she alright doc? Why she look like that?” Ramone asked sounding worried.

“She’s just tired. Having a baby can be very tiresome and her body went through some traumatic pain but I can assure you that she is alright.”

Everyone walked into the room with all types of balloons and teddy bears.
 

“I need for y’all to stop making me a grandpa, I’m too young for all this
,” my daddy joked. 

“Who you telling
? I have more grandkids than I do gray hairs,” Poppa Mone laughed. 

“Well at least we have another girl in the family. We men were starting to take over
,” Mack said looking at Ranyla. 

“I’m a proud uncle, I have me a little girl to spoil. She kind of looks like Neicey.” Mykell chimed in.
 

“Sorry to interrupt this happy moment,” Neicey’s doctor said walking into the room and I
feared the worst. “I just wanted to inform you all that Ms. Peake is woke,” he said smiling. 

“Oh
my gosh! I have to go see her. I need to take Ranyla to go see her auntie,” I said trying to get out the bed even though I was tired as hell. 

“Whoa little lady, you stay right there in that bed. We’ll all go see her but you need to be in a
wheelchair,” my daddy said. 

“Well
, tell them to get the chair ready so we can go!” I fussed. 

I knew my sister wouldn’t let me down. She came back the day her niece was born, just like I asked her
to. 

I opened my eyes and it took me some time to realize where I was. I don’t even know how I got to the hospital. I tried to pull that damn tub
e out of my mouth but it wouldn’t budge. I pressed the button to call the nurse and she came in to see me. She was happy to see that I was woke and wasted no time calling the doctor. When they removed the tube a whole lot of gook came up with it but the doctor told me that was normal. 

“H-h-
h-h-” I tired talking but nothing was coming out like I wanted it to plus my throat was sore as hell. 

“
Shhh. Don’t try to talk sweetie,” the doctor said. “Give your throat a rest and I’ll answer any question you want me to when you feel better. Let me call your family.” 

“You were quite the trooper though,” a nurse said.

I felt a pain in my chest on the left side. I put my hand up there and I felt a bandage.

“No worries sweetie, that’s where you go shot. I already changed your bandage, if you take care of it right, it will heal right,” the nurse said.

I just nodded my head since I couldn’t talk.

“Ma! You’re up!” MJ yelled running in the room right to my bed. 

I kissed him all over his face.
 

I smiled so hard when I
saw the rest of my family enter the room. Lani was wheeled in by Ramon and she had a baby wrapped up in her arms. I couldn’t wait to see her. 

“L-l-l” I tried to talk again
, but all I heard was a weird noise.

“She’s cute, huh?” MJ asked. 

I shook my head yes. She’s actually beautiful, she looks just like Ramone. She has his color and everything. They did real good with her.

“I’m so happy you came back Neicey. You just don’t know. I got two blessings in one day,” she said placing my niece in my arms. “She looks just like Mone.” 

Ramone was at the foot of the bed smiling
proudly. 

I looked up when I
saw my dad walk in the room with Romell on his hip. I felt tears falling from my eyes when I saw how big my Fat Man has gotten.
I wonder if he remembers me.
 

“Mama!” he reached for me.
 

I smiled happy that he remembered who I was.
 As I looked around, I was happy to see all the people I loved. I don’t know how long I’ve been here, but I’m so happy to be back.

Snook been home f
rom the hospital about two months now. We’ve been keeping in touch since she’s been out. She called me up and said she had something important that she wanted to holla at me about.
