36.

Ebony

“Ma, look at these.” Jayden held up a pair of blue and white Jordan 12’s. “Can I get these?”

“Don’t you already have those?”

“Nah, I got the red and black ones. Can I get them? Please,”

“Fine, get them I don’t care. One other pair, then go to the back and tell your father to bring his ass on. I’m hungry as hell.” I sat down and watched him look all over the store. I saw a couple of pairs that would be perfect for him but he’s picky as hell so he probably wouldn’t even like them.

I used to love going shopping for Jayden but now the shit irks me. He’s become so picky and Kaylin has his ass spoiled. Try telling him he can’t have something the little nigga acts like it’s the end of the world. It’s fine right now though because all of this was going to be on Kaylin especially since we were in his store. He could foot the bill for Jayden’s sneaker habit since he’s the one that has it all fucked up anyway.

I pulled my phone out and started looking through my text messages when I felt a presence in front of me. “Ebony.” Hearing his voice made me freeze in place. I looked up to see Rio standing there still looking the same as I remember. “Damn, you still looking good baby girl.”

I didn’t even say anything I just stood up and tried to walk past him but he grabbed my arm. “Let my arm go,” I told him without yelling like I really wanted to. The last thing I needed was Jayden hearing me yell and rushing to go get Kaylin from the back.

“Why are you acting funny? I went to jail for you bitch.”

“No you went to jail for your actions, it’s my fault you beat my ass the way you did? No, I don’t think so now let my arm go.” I snatched my arm away from him but he grabbed my hand and looked at my ring.

“Oh so somebody put a ring on it huh? What happened? You back with your bitch ass baby daddy? Nah that’s not it, word is you had him murked.”

“I don’t know what the fuck you talking about but you need to let my hand go and stay away from me!”

“What’s going on?” Hearing Kaylin’s voice behind me made me freeze up almost immediately. I turned to look at him and Jayden who was standing right next to him with his arms folded.

“Is this little Jayden?” Rio reached his hand out for a pound but Jayden just looked at him like he was stupid.

“Ebony,” Kaylin said my name. “Come here.” I went over to where he was and he glanced at me then looked back at Rio. “Who is this?”

“Nobody important, just someone I know from back in the day.”

“So why the fuck was he touching and grabbing on you?”

“It’s nothing Kaylin, let’s just go.”

“She’s right, why don’t y’all just go?” Rio smirked at him.

“Take Jayden to the car Ebony.”

“Bu-“ Before I could say anything else he sent me a glare that shut my ass right up. I grabbed Jayden’s hand and walked out the store. “Why did you go and tell Kaylin anything?”

“That man was grabbing on you and stuff, what was I supposed to do? It was either go get him or hit the nigga myself.” Jayden answered me and I looked at him.

“Watch your mouth, you’re not grown.”

“I never said I was but I see a man grabbing on my mother in a way no other man does and you’re questioning it. Kaylin doesn’t even grab at you like that but it was a problem for me to stop the situation.”

“I’m not saying that Jayden”

“So what are you saying? You think I don’t recognize him ma? I know who Rio is and I remember what he did to you but I’m wrong for going to get dad when he touched you? Alright, I see how it is.” He shook his head then walked ahead of me.

Did my 11 year old just read my ass? That’s exactly what it feels like he just did. I can’t even be mad at him because he’s right. What the fuck? I started to follow him until something told me to turn around and when I did I saw two security guards carrying Rio’s dumb ass out of Kaylin’s store.

The nigga looked like he could barely stand up and had blood on his face. Kaylin came out right behind them with the screw face on. I could tell he was pissed off and I was going to have to deal with this dumb ass attitude of his all damn day.

The whole ride back to the house Kaylin and Jayden both ignored me. Even when we got home they ignored me. They just stayed in that damn game room all day. I even sucked up my pride and tried to get one of them to talk to me and it wasn’t happening.

Jayden being mad really didn’t bother me because he’s going to get over it eventually. The little nigga gotta come ask me for something so he can’t avoid me forever, plus I planned on apologizing anyway. Kaylin’s stubborn ass is something different. That nigga could literally ignore me for a week straight if he really wanted to and I knew he was going to try to.

After hours of them being locked in that damn game room Kaylin finally came out but I know that was only because he was coming with me to Darryl’s birthday party. We were waiting for Brandi to come and drop Angelic off so we could take her and Jayden to Mariah’s house since she and Tristan weren’t going to the party. He banned her ass from going out while pregnant after Nicole acted a fool and wanted to fight Rashad the night we went out together. He says he doesn’t want her caught up in any foolishness which I understand so I’m not even mad at him.

The whole time we were getting ready he didn’t say shit to me and I wasn’t really shocked by that. Kaylin always does some bullshit like ignoring me when he gets mad. When I was finished getting dressed I looked at him. “So you’re going to ignore me all night or something?”

“What you want me to say Ebony?”

“I’m just Ebony now? It’s not that damn serious Kaylin.”

“Who was that nigga?”

“Nobody, he’s just somebody I know from a long time ago.”

“Why was he grabbing you up and shit? Why did he feel comfortable enough to do that?”

“I don’t know he’s an idiot. Damn, what the fuck you want me to say?”

“Whatever the fuck is the truth. What’s his name?”

“Why does that matter?” Kaylin knew all about who Rio was at least he knew him by name. I told him all about that retarded ass relationship and I know as soon as I say his name I’m getting blacked on. Excuse me but I really don’t feel like dealing with that.

“It matters because I wanna know who the fuck that nigga was. Are you fuckin’ that nigga or something?”

“Hell no! Why would you ask me something like that?”

“It gotta be a reason you’re hiding that shit Eb. Who is he?”

“That was Rio.”

“I know who it was I just wanted to see if you were going to tell me the truth.”

“What do you mean you knew?”

“Jayden told me his name; I’m just trying to figure out why you didn’t tell me you ran into that nigga weeks ago.” I guess he saw the semi-shocked look on my face because he nodded. “Yup he told me that shit too. So you run into your ex and you weren’t going to tell me that? The fuck is wrong with you?”

“Nothing is wrong with me; it wasn’t serious so I didn’t say anything.”

“That nigga went to jail behind beating your ass Ebony but running into him aint serious? What if he tried something?”

“He wasn’t going to touch me.”

“You know that how Eb? He did the shit before, you really on some bullshit.”

“The fuck is you talking about? I didn’t even do shit.”

“That’s my point, you didn’t do shit. You should’ve come to me and told me that you saw that nigga. Today is the second time he ran into you, the fuck do you think would’ve happened if I wasn’t there?”

“I don’t know but it’s not like I knew the nigga was going to pop up on me. Damn, you’re making a big deal out of nothing.”

“That’s what you think? Aight.” He nodded then walked out of our bedroom. I didn’t even bother going after him I just finished getting ready. When Brandi dropped Angelic off we took her and Jayden to Mariah then headed to the party,

The whole drive to the club we didn’t speak. When we got in the club we didn’t speak. He sat with his boys while I saw with my girls and that’s it. We had no communication. In my opinion he was overreacting, the nigga was acting like I cheated on him or something.

“Ebony what’s wrong with you?” Jasmine asked me.

“Kaylin is on some bullshit.” I ran down the whole story of what happened to her and she was shaking her head at me when I was done.

“I told you to tell him but no you didn’t wanna listen to anybody. You had to do whatever you wanted to do anyway.”

“Jas shut up I really don’t feel like hearing that bullshit right now.”

“Well it’s the truth. I get why he’s mad but he’s stretching it right now.” I looked at her confused and she motioned for me to look at him on the other side of the section. There he was sitting with some half naked bitch all up in his face showing all 32 of her teeth.

“What the fuck?” I got up and walked over to where they were. “Excuse you!” I shouted getting ole girl’s attention. I knew his ass saw and heard me but he wanted to be petty and not look at me.

“Do you have a problem?” The girl questioned me.

“I actually do but it’s not with you so if you want to avoid getting your head cracked you need to get up and walk off.” She started to get up but this nigga had the nerve to grab her arm then whispered something in her ear. I don’t know what he said but the bitch sat back like she didn’t just hear what I said. “Kaylin, you are really stretching it.”

“How Eb? I’m just talking ma.” He smirked at me.

“No nigga you’re trying to be funny and it’s going to get you fucked up in a second. Stop fuckin’ playing with me Kaylin!” He laughed then waved me off and that shit instantly made my blood boil so I grabbed a drink that was on the table in front of him and threw that shit in his face before I started raining punches on his ass. He wanted to be childish I was going to whoop his ass like he was one.

I was getting his ass good too when Rashad’s big ass decided to grab me up. I was grateful I didn’t have on a dress or everybody would’ve seen my ass by the way I was kicking my legs trying to get Rashad to let me go. My jeans were saving my life at the moment.

“Yo Ebony you need to chill sis!” Rashad shouted at me.

“Fuck that and fuck him too!” I snatched away from Rashad and grabbed my stuff from my sister before I left the club. I didn’t say anything to anybody I just left. Thankfully I always put his car keys in my purse whenever we go out, too bad for him I was taking his car and leaving him here. He can get the bitch he was talking to drive his ass somewhere.

***

When I got up the next morning I looked at my phone to see numerous missed calls from my sister, Nicole, my brother and Kaylin. I really wasn’t even trying to hear shit from Kay, he was on my shit list so I called Nicole who picked up on the first ring.

“Damn bitch can I finish dialing first?” I joked when she answered.

“Shut up bitch, are you just now getting up? It’s almost one in the afternoon Eb.”

“I know but nobody was here to bug me so I stayed asleep.”

“Well where the fuck did you go last night?”

“I came home, where else would I go?”

“Did you lock Kay out?”

“No I didn’t lock him out; I had his keys like always and didn’t answer the door when he came home. I don’t care either he was on some bullshit.”

“You know him and your brother damn near fought last night right?”

“The fuck? Why?”

“When you left Darryl came up to where we were asking what was going on, you know since you decided to pop off like we weren’t in a crowded club. You’re on the Shaderoom by the way.”

“How wonderful,” I rolled my eyes.

“Anyway Darryl asked what happened. Jas messy ass told him what it was or at least what she saw. Darryl asked Kay what happened, Kay told him to mind his business it had nothing to do with him and they got to arguing. If Rashad didn’t break it up and make him leave they would’ve been straight boxing.”

I shook my head at that bullshit. I should’ve known Darryl was going to say something and Jas was going to be messy and low key hype it up. “That’s some crazy shit. Did he stay with y’all last night?”

“Nah I think he went to Trey and Jas’ house.”

“How did he end up there?”

“They drove him home after you dipped and it was late so they didn’t want to go and wake up Mariah or Tristan so he just went to their house. That’s what he told Rashad this morning when they spoke.”

“Oh well, I guess I’ll see his ass later or something but I’m not fuckin’ with that nigga right now. He was really doing some bullshit.” Last night still had me super pissed.

I understand he was upset about me not telling him about Rio, I get it but he was taking shit too far. As long as I’ve been with Kaylin I never even let a nigga close to me and this nigga had the fuckin’ nerve and balls to have a bitch in his face with me right there. That’s disrespect on a whole other level and I wasn’t beat for him or that bullshit right now.

“I know he was, but the nigga was drunk and acting stupid.”

“I don’t want to hear that he was drunk bullshit, he’s a grown ass man.”

“Well you do what you feel like you need to do in your situation. I gotta go, Rashad is hungry and he’s rushing me to get dressed so we can go eat.”

“Alright well I’ll talk to you later.” We said our goodbyes or whatever then hung up. After putting my phone down I got up and went in the bathroom so I could shower.

When I got done showering and getting dressed I went downstairs to the living room to see Kaylin and Trigga sitting in the living room. “How’d you get in here?” I asked, getting their attention.

He looked up at me then sighed. “You gave your sister a key for emergencies remember? I took hers. Come here Hersh.”

“Nah I’m good right here.”

“I’m going to give y’all some privacy.” Trigga got up and started to walk out the room but I stopped him.

“Don’t go too far, he might need you to save him from another ass whooping.”

“Nah I think I’m good Eb. I’m going to go see what’s up with Tristan and the fam.” He shook his head at us before leaving. When he was gone I looked at Kaylin with my eyebrow raised.

“Baby I’m sorry, I fucked up last night.” He said making me chuckle.

“No shit Sherlock.”

“I’m trying to apologize Ebony.” He stood up and I saw that he was in the same clothes he was wearing last night.

I knew he was funky and I took all of me not to laugh at him. Kaylin is far from dirty; he’s actually very close to being a neat freak so wearing the same clothes from last night had to be irking his nerves.

“I got drunk and let the liquor get the best of me. I’m sorry aight?” He pulled a jewelry box from his pocket and I could tell from the shape of the box that it was a necklace.

“What is that?”

“Just something to show you I’m sorry,” he opened the box and of course it was a necklace just like I knew it would be. I can’t even front it was nice, it was a gold diamond studded chain that had a diamond E as a pendant. I wanted it because it was so pretty but I wasn’t taking that shit.

“That’s nice Kay.”

“That’s all you gotta say? It’s nice?”

“What more do you want me to say? Oh wait let me guess, you wanted me to see that necklace and everything you did is supposed to be just fine and dandy?” I sat down on the couch and looked at him. “It’s not that easy.”

“Ebony I’m saying sorry.”

“You’re saying sorry but do you even know what you’re sorry for? You don’t because if you did you wouldn’t have gone to go buy a fuckin’ necklace as an apology. You would’ve just said it, meant it and been done. I know you, this is a I don’t really care about what I did but I want you to stop being mad at me gift and I’m not taking it!”

“Ebony you’re over reacting on all of this shit.”

“I’m not though.”

“You are!”

“No the fuck I’m not. So, because I didn’t tell you about a nigga who’s crazy as fuck and doesn’t have shit to lose you get to do some bullshit? Rio will do anything and not care about the consequences because he doesn’t have shit. I don’t want you doing something that could fuck up or make you lose your life. I was doing what I thought was best and in return I get a club full of people seeing my nigga disrespecting me to my muthafuckin’ face but I’m overreacting?” I looked at Kaylin like he was fuckin’ stupid.

He really had me fucked up right now. I don’t like arguing with Kaylin because it’s a headache that I don’t feel like dealing with but he had me so pissed off right now. Coming in here with some jewelry and a fake ass apology like that was supposed to make shit right. I was over the bullshit for real and he was going to hear every bit of my mouth today.

Kaylin

Looking out the window of my car I couldn’t help but run down the argument Ebony and I had. Usually when we fight I’m able to brush that shit off once I cool down because I’m going to be honest, we fight a lot. A whole lot so I’m used to going through the motions. When you have a woman who has no problem speaking her mind you go through that type of shit all the time. I couldn’t do that now though, the shit we said to each other kept playing back in my mind. I couldn’t even figure out why, it’s not like it’s the first time she threatened to leave. I guess this is just the first time I felt like she was dead ass serious about it.

“Yo you are the most selfish nigga I’ve ever met in my fuckin’ life dawg.” Ebony said while she was sitting on the couch rubbing her hands together like she was in deep thought about what just came out her mouth. “All you care about is yourself, and how the fuck you feel.”

I sat down on the opposite couch looking at her like the fool she apparently was. “I’m selfish Eb? I’m taking care of you and your son like he’s my own kid but I’m selfish? The fuck type of shit is that?”

“You take care of us, alright and so what Kaylin? You think that gives you the right to do whatever the fuck you want any way you want to? I appreciate what you do for me and Jayden but let’s not act like you didn’t make it this way.”

“I did make it this way because I care about you. I love your ass but for whatever reason you just wanna keep doing stupid shit!”

“I didn’t tell you about Rio, you’re right that was stupid. I fucked up, I should’ve told you but that doesn’t mean you get to disrespect me and act like it’s not a big deal. You walk your ass in this house with some bullshit necklace like I’m going to see the fuckin’ diamonds on it and forget the shit you have and still are putting me through!”

“What am I putting you through!? You living the life most bitches would kill for. I come home to you every night, I take care of you, and I’m here with you! I’m doing all of this for you, for my kids, for us and you want to act like everything I do is so fucked up when you’re the one not being real!”

“You love me Kaylin? You care about me and my son? If you do why did you do what you did? You treated me like shit last night. You embarrassed the fuck out of me like I’m just some average bitch off the street and not the woman you’re planning to spend the rest of your life with.”

“You’re the one that was lying to me about that nigga, the fuck you mean. I had to find out about that nigga because of Jayden, not because you told me what was up. If the roles were reversed and I did that shit to you what would you say Ebony? Let’s be real right now, what would you do?”

“You’re supposed to trust me. You’re supposed to know that I’m not a grimy ass bitch. I don’t move like that. If I didn’t say anything it’s for a reason it’s not because I was trying to be sneaky.”

“I can’t fuckin’ tell, you lied to me. Had me looking like I don’t know what the fuck is going on with my fuckin’ woman. You’re damn near my wife but I don’t know about niggas from your past is popping up on you? Are you fuckin’ stupid?”

“Like you said, I’m damn near your wife so trust me enough to know that I’m not going to disrespect you. I didn’t want drama between you and that crazy ass nigga. I didn’t want you getting caught up in the bullshit from my past. You already got rid of Quan because of me I didn’t want you doing that again and possibly getting caught.”

“You still should’ve said something Ebony. What the fuck was I supposed to do? Not be mad that you didn’t say shit? What was I supposed to think?”

“Not that I was trying to be sneaky or something. Now you’re questioning my loyalty? You think I would cheat on you or something? Do you even want to marry me Kaylin? You put this ring on my finger for what? Is it because you really want to be with me forever or was it just a shut up and do what I want ring?”

“Don’t ask me some bullshit like that; you know damn well why I gave it to you.”

“I don’t think I do, I thought I did but if this is what spending the rest of my life with you will be like I’m not so sure if I even want it anymore.”

“What are you saying?”

“I’m saying I’m done with bullshit, that’s what I’m saying. This ring doesn’t mean shit; I should’ve seen it when you first put it on my finger. You don’t want me as your wife. You just wanted me to be open to having your baby. You can scrap that shit now because I’m done.” She shook her head at me then walked out the living room. “I’ll be out by tonight don’t even worry about it.” I didn’t even say anything. There was no point, it wasn’t going to do shit but start the whole damn argument over. I grabbed another pair of my keys off the mantle and left.

“Aye bruh we’re here, you want me to come in?” Trigga asked me out of my thoughts.

“Yeah come in, if she starts again it’s going to take all of me not to touch her so make sure I don’t do some stupid shit.” We both got out the car and walked up to the house. I was about to pull my keys out while I twisted the door knob but it was already unlocked. “The fuck?”

“What happened?”

“The door is unlocked; she doesn’t keep this door unlocked.” Ebony has always been on some paranoid shit because she thinks this house is too big to leave anything open. She doesn’t even function right if the shit is unlocked.

“Maybe she didn’t lock it and left?”

“Then her car wouldn’t be in the garage, let me go check and see if it’s in there. Go see if she in the living room or upstairs.” We both walked in the house and he went where I told him to go while I walked down the hall to the garage door. Opening the door I walked down the three steps that were right behind the door after turning the light on.

Her car was sitting right in its usual spot so I put my hand on the hood and it was cold so that meant she hasn’t went anywhere. I was just about to shrug my shoulders and say fuck it, maybe I’m over thinking shit when I heard Trigga shouting my name.

I left the garage then ran upstairs. When I walked in my bedroom I was about to ask what the fuck he wanted until I saw Ebony sitting on the floor with her knees up to her chest and her head resting on her arms. Confused I bent down to her level.

“Hersh, what’s wrong with you? Why are you crying?” She didn’t say anything she just shook her head. “I’m sorry about earlier aight, let’s talk about it so we can squash this shit.” Again she didn’t say anything and this time I was getting irritated but I kept my cool. “Look at me baby,” I used both hands to lift her head and when I got a good look at her face I immediately got mad.

Her lip was busted and one of her eyes looked like it was going to swell shut pretty soon. “Who did that to your face?”

“H-he came here,”

“Who came here, that punk ass nigga from yesterday?” I asked and she nodded her head. “What the fuck happened?”

“He rang the doorbell so I went over and opened it. When I saw it was him I tried to close the door but I couldn’t. We ended up getting in a fight. The only reason he left was because I was able to run up here and get your gun from the closet.” She cried. “Kay, he took my phone so I couldn’t call you and I was here by myself. I didn’t know what else to do.” I pulled her up to her feet then wrapped my arms around her.

“I’m sorry baby. I’m not leaving again aight. I’m going to handle this shit, don’t worry about it.”

“No, he’s crazy Kaylin he’ll really try to hurt you.”

“I don’t give a fuck about that nigga being crazy Ebony, look at your face. Come on, put your shoes on.”

“Where are we going?”

“You’re going your sister’s house, I’m about to go do something real quick.”

“No Kaylin!” I ignored her looking at Trigga.

“Take her to Jaz then hit me up aight.”

“Kaylin don’t go and do something stupid please,” Ebony begged while holding my shirt extra tight. I know she was only trying to stop me because she didn’t want me getting hurt but I didn’t feel like hearing that shit right now.

“Go get in the car, Trigga take her.” I told him. He came over to the side of the room she was on and grabbed her arm gently.

“Come on Eb,”

“I don’t want him doing something stupid!” She shouted as he pulled her out the room.

I went to my closet to get my strap. I really didn’t want to resort back to this street shit, I’m supposed to be done with it but that nigga put his hand on my wife and I can’t let that shit slide. I’ll die before that nigga thinks it’s ever okay to touch what’s mine.
