“Where is she?”
“Calm down son. Everything will come to the light in due time. Just know, if you kill me the hood rat will starve to death and die from torture wounds.” My heart dropped and I wanted to shoot this bitch face off her shoulders, but if I wanted to save Roulette, I had to let her leave.
“Stop calling me your son. If you touch her, I will make you suffer in a way that you have never seen.”
“You’re right. I’ll be in touch bastard baby.” We kept our guns pointed at her until she walked out of the door. Just the thought of them torturing her broke me down. Shitz pulled me off my feet forcing me to look at him.
“Ain’t no time for tears bro. Pull it together so we can find your girl. When this is over, we will light that bitch up like bombs over Baghdad.” Knowing he was right, I got my shit together and walked out. She would get hers. First I had to save my shorty.
Chapter Fifteen
ROULETTE
Knowing I was out of time with Capone, I had no idea what I was going to do. He was not going to stay hidden away and there was no way I could tell Vicious what I had done. The shit literally had me sick to my stomach. Throwing up in the toilet, this was the first time I ever felt fear. My crew would look at me as a traitor and there was no way they would allow me to be in charge after this. Even though it was my shit, they wouldn’t allow someone like me to lead them anymore.
How could I have been so stupid? I should have told them what was going on. They didn’t know where I had him hid so it wasn’t like they could do anything. Vicious has been angry before, but this would be the first time he would be disappointed in me. As tears fell down my eyes, I threw up again.
“Okay bitch, I’ve heard enough. That shit ain’t normal. You have been throwing up all morning and I’m taking your ass to the damn doctor. Get your ass up and stop feeling sorry for yourself. After we leave, we will go tell the crew together. I got your back and I won’t allow anyone to do shit. Uncle V may kick you in the pussy, but you will live.” Too sick to argue it, I got up and let her drive me to the doctor.
I was hoping we got there fast because everything about the car ride was making me feel fucked up. Right as I was about to throw up, the car stopped and I jumped out. Breezy would have killed me if I threw up in her shit. By the time we got inside, I could barely walk. Breezy held me up and I was grateful to have a friend like her. The emergency room was empty so it didn’t take long for them to call me in the back.
After explaining everything that has been going on, they drew my blood and did a series of test. I’ve never been this sick in my life. My nerves were shot and I was scared of what it could be. This shit didn’t feel like the flu.
“Bitch what if Capone gave me something? I’m gone kill his bitch ass. How the fuck you got donkey dick with a disease? What am I going to do?”
“Girl, he ain’t gave you shit. Your ass got the flu or something. You gone be okay, I got you bitch. Even if your coochie is burning and itchy.” We both laughed and it was a well needed distraction. Thirty minutes later, they were coming back in the room. Breezy squeezed my hand and we listened.
“Well Mrs. Barnes, we have figured out what was wrong with you. It seems that you have a little baby baking in the oven. Congrats mommy. You’re about three months along. I’ll set you up with a primary if you don’t already have one so we can get you started on prenatal pills. Do you have any questions?” My ass was in shock and I didn’t know what to say.
“No questions doc, thank you.” The doctor walked out and my ass was frozen. “I’m about to be a God mommy. I’m so excited.” I didn’t know how to explain what I was feeling. I was about to be a mommy and I was excited about that, but how could I be Roulette and a mommy? Would Capone be happy about it? Would he be a deadbeat donkey or would he be excited.
“Breezy, what the fuck? This is a lot to take in with all that’s going on. How the fuck am I going to be a mommy and I love toting guns and shit? Then on the other hand, I can’t wait to hold the baby and smell it. Am I losing my mind?”
“Nope, but you about to lose your pussy bone. You have to reveal two things to Uncle V today. Sucks to be you. Now let’s go, we have to get this over with so we can find a reasonable solution.”
“Have you heard from Glitch?”
“Nope, fuck him. I just pray I never run into him and that bitch. Don’t worry about me right now, let’s go.” Walking out of the hospital, we got in the car and left. The drive to the warehouse was quiet. For some reason, it seemed like Breezy was speeding like a mother fucker. I wanted her to drive nice and slow, but her wheels was on crackhead time. When the car stopped, it took me forever to get out. “Bitch bring your scary ass on.” Walking as fast as I could, we went in the warehouse. Vicious was beating one of the lil guys from my crew damn near to death. I had no idea what was going on in my shit anymore. I was losing my grip and I didn’t like that feeling.
“Daddy, what are you doing?” When he saw me, his ass ran towards me and hugged me. Now my ass was confused and what I had to tell him was going to be harder than I thought.
“Your team is incompetent as fuck and I’m sick of it. The only reason I didn’t kill his ass is because I didn’t want to argue with you. Where the fuck have you been?” Looking at Breezy, it was now or never.
“Daddy, I have something to tell you.” Before I could say it, Capone walked in the warehouse.
“Vicious we need to talk about Rou…” That’s when he saw me. I was officially fucked. Everyone raised their guns on Capone and I knew I had to do something. Running in front of him, I threw my hands up to stop them.
“Daddy, it’s my fault. That’s what I was about to tell you. I didn’t kill him and he didn’t die. I hid him away because his mama tried to kill him and I needed to find out why.” I hoped that would do the trick, but I was wrong as fuck. My daddy grabbed me by my neck and lifted my ass in the air. He was about to fuck me up, but Breezy started screaming.
“Please don’t, she’s pregnant.” I could have killed the bitch myself. I know she thought she was helping me, but she just made it seemed like I saved his life because I was pregnant.
“Daddy I just found out thirty minutes ago.” Putting me down, I’ve never seen him look so disappointed in my life. My daddy hated me right now and I don’t blame him. I was looking flaw.
“Look, I know everybody is upset and confused right now, but I can clear everything up. I got the answers you were looking for.” He went on to tell us the story that she told him. Everyone was speechless as fuck. “She told me she had you held hostage and that was the only reason I didn’t kill her. Now that I know she doesn’t have her, we can proceed to finding the bitch and kill her. What’s the plan?”
“Now that we know you’re not the enemy, we can go over a plan tomorrow. I guess you and my lying ass daughter can get some privacy. When you’re done here, come to the fucking house and I will deal with you later.” Pissed that he embarrassed me in front of everyone, I decided to piss him off more. Grabbing my gun, I aimed it at the floor.
“I’m sick of you talking to me like I’m a kid. I don’t owe you an explanation and I’m not coming home. Oh, and take this with you.” Pretending I was going to shoot him, I wanted to shoot the ground next to him. Capone decided to grab my arm when I pulled the trigger trying to stop me and made me shoot Vicious in the foot. This nigga was trying to get me killed.
“Mother fucker. You shot me in my fucking foot.” Not wanting to look like a pussy, I acted as if I did it on purpose.
“Yea I shot you. Now what. I bet you shut your ass up next time.”
“Shut your dumb ass up. You did the shit by accident. Get your simple ass over here and carry me all the way to the fucking hospital. If you let me fall, I will kick you in the pussy with my good foot.” Running over to him, I’m glad he knew I didn’t mean it.
“I’m so sorry daddy. I was trying to shoot the ground to scare you. I didn’t mean to do it. I know you’re mad at me, but I
wasn’t trying to keep nothing from you. I just wanted to try and make you proud by doing it on my own.” I tried to use the proud card.
“If your lying ass don’t get me to the hospital I promise you gone need a gurney too. Your ass wasn’t trying to make me proud and how the fuck you was gone scare me shooting off a toe? Let’s go.” Laughing, I looked at Capone motioning for him to come with me. We had a lot to discuss.
Chapter Sixteen
VICIOUS
There wasn’t a word to describe how pissed I was. Kalina had been lying, and then this bitch Rebecca was doing the most. All this time, I thought I had killed Vega. This bitch not only wiped him out, but she wanted to take out the entire operation. Her ass was in charge, but that wasn’t enough. She wanted the streets as well.
A bitch like her wasn’t the street type. How the hell do you run what you don’t know about? See, I knew bitches like her. They were a dime a dozen. Fuck a nigga from the hood and they think they get street cred. Just because you lay with a boss, that doesn’t make you a boss. I was tired of people having that mindset and think they ready to challenge the big dog.
I had mixed feelings about Kalina being pregnant. I’ve always wanted to be a grandfather, but I was just getting used to being out there in the trenches with her. I was looking forward to us being a force together and now I had to relinquish that idea. There was no way I was allowing her to be out there in those streets and she had a baby. It was time for her to let all this shit go. I did it for her, and she was going to do the same. All I had to do was figure out a way to convince her of that.
On top of all that bullshit, she done shot me in my damn foot. I don’t know what it is about that foot, but the shit hurt like a mother fucker. I was being strong, but I had tears in my eyes. A nigga was praying for Jesus to take the wheel. He left that bitch right there, but it didn’t stop me from asking. Now all of our dumb asses are sitting in the emergency room looking stupid. Kalina was constantly staring at me as if she was trying to read me and how I was feeling. Capone was staring at her as if he was trying to understand how it happened. Shit was a mess. They called my name and all of us stood up. Well I tried, but it hurt like hell.
“Look, I know yall here for me and you can come to the back after you’re done talking. Right now, yall got some shit to discuss and my foot ain’t that important.”
“You sure? I don’t want you to be by yourself. Me and Capone can talk later. I want to make sure my daddy good. Anything else really can wait.” Kalina was trying to use me as an excuse to get out of talking to Capone.
“I’m sure. Besides, you’re the one that did it. You think you slick. Your ass done got pregnant and think I can’t kick you in the pussy. I’ll hold this wheel chair and use my other foot. So, it might be safer for you out here.” Thinking it over, she agreed and allowed me in the back. As soon as I was out of ear shot, my ass started begging.
“Excuse me nurse, do you think I can get some pain meds? I’m dying over here.” The nurse laughed and nodded her head.
“You look like a strong man, I’m sure you can take it. Besides, it’s just your foot. It’s not going to kill you, man up.” I almost slapped her ass across the room for that comment. Now my ass had to pretend I was good so she don’t think I was some punk ass nigga.
“If I bent your ass over, I bet you won’t be talking shit.” When she laughed, that gave me the green light to keep fucking with her. It took my mind off the pain.
“What’s your name? I like to know who a person is before I kill them out.”
“Melissa, yours?” Wondering if I should tell her my real name or my street name, I decided on the latter. Either you were going to accept me for who I was, or we could move around and forget we ever met each other. One thing I knew for sure was, there was no more hiding.
“Vicious.” You could tell she had heard about me and in a strange way, that made me feel good about myself.
“Thee Vicious. Like the serial killer?” I couldn’t do shit but laugh at that. I was about to say I wasn’t no damn serial killer, but I guess you can say I was. I have a signature and I stay bodying niggas.
“Yeah that’s me. How the fuck someone like you know about someone like me?” Now it was her turn to laugh.
“Just because I did something with my life, doesn’t mean I didn’t come from the hood. I was born and raised in K Town. Your ass may be tough, but you don’t want to fuck with me.” You could tell she was lying. She didn’t know shit about the hood.
“Okay tough girl, can I take you out when my foot heals?”
“It all depends on what you’re working with when I help you change into your gown.” I damn near choked at how bold she was. I’m glad a nigga wasn’t short in that department. Not even waiting on her help, I stripped out of my clothes and put my gown on. When I laid back in the bed, I made sure my gown stopped above my dick. Her eyes got big and I could tell she was nervous.
“You can put that thing up now.”
“Naw, you do it.” Looking around, she grabbed my dick and released it fast as hell. Pulling my gown down, she was nervous as hell.
“I’ll give you my number when you get back from x-rays. Someone should be coming to get you shortly.” As she walked out of the room, I admired her ass. It wasn’t too big and not too small. Shit was just right and I couldn’t wait to get up in those guts. Now that I had nobody to talk to, it seem like my pain came back. That shit hit me so hard, I could feel it in my dick. Since I didn’t want her to think I was a bitch, my ass suffered for it. As she said, someone came in and took me to x-rays and by the time I came back to my room, I was in so much pain, I didn’t give a fuck who knew it. A nigga was pushing the shit out of that button.
“Somebody better come in here and bring me some pain meds before I blow this shit up. My damn foot hurt shit. Where the fuck is the damn doctor? Can yall hear me in here? Fuck are yall doing?”
“The entire hospital hears your sissy ass. I know Vicious not in here crying over a lil shot to his foot. I should have recorded this for the next time he tries to take over my camp.” Kalina and Capone walked in catching me in a weak moment.
“Fuck you. I didn’t say shit when you was trying to slip and slide because your ass was hurting. What happened to your ass again? Her and Capone damn near choked and I knew exactly what happened. “Yall some nasty ass bitches. Get the fuck out of my room.” They laughed as if I was playing, but I should have shut the fuck up. Nobody wanted to know that shit. My crew walked in and even though I was happy, I didn’t want them to see me weak. Until I noticed that E Way had a limp, everybody knew Grew had a shaky hand, so I didn’t feel so bad.
“Bae we gone start calling they ass the handicap hitters. They old ass don’t stand a chance out there in these streets.” We all laughed and it was good having my family together. Grew walked up to Capone and reached out his hand.
“What’s up, I’m Kalina’s uncle Grew. How you doing youngblood?”
“NOOOO.” Everyone yelled out at the same time and Grew got mad as hell.
“I will bet you ten racks that nigga got piss on his hand. Don’t do it Capone.” Looking from me to Kalina, he realized we were serious and dropped his hand.
“Fuck yall.” We all bust out laughing again and I noticed the pain was gone again. My family was taking my mind off of the shit and I was grateful to them. A nigga needed it to, because that pain was about to take me out. Melissa walked in and I immediately started smiling.
“You missed me already huh?”
“Naw, the entire floor heard you crying and begged me to come give you some meds.” If I didn’t want her so bad, I would have been like fuck her. She embarrassed the shit out of me.
“Say it ain’t so V.” E Way was laughing a lil too hard for me.
“I bet I could still fuck your mama.”
“I bet you can too. She Senile with no teeth and got chin hair. She been waiting on a sucker like you to prove a point.” We all shared another laugh, but this time Meli
ssa joined in. For some reason, the shit just felt right.
Chapter Seventeen
BREEZY
Everybody was happy and finding their true love, but my ass was trying to figure out where the fuck my nigga was. I still can’t believe this is what my life had become. It’s been a couple of weeks and I hadn’t heard from Glitch. Nigga didn’t even attempt to come back for the rest of his clothes.
I even found out I was pregnant, but I kept the shit to myself. In another day, this would have been ideal. Me and my best friend having a baby at the same time, that shit would have been lit as fuck. Now, my ass was sitting here crying trying to figure out how got I here. We had our future planned and now I didn’t know if I still wanted to be here. It had to be a better life than this. I was starting to think if I wanted a better life, I needed to leave this place.
I know that my best friend would be disappointed and upset, but this was a decision I needed to make for me. My father was gone, Glitch disappeared and I don’t want to look like the depressed friend jealous of everyone else that is doing great. I was extremely happy for everyone, and I needed them to know that. Sitting around being depressed would only make them feel I wasn’t. We were about to have a meeting and I knew they were going to be upset, but on today, I would be telling everyone that I was out of here.
Grabbing my purse, I jumped in my car and headed towards the warehouse. The tears filled my eyes and it’s as if I was engulfed in pain. The world was closing in on me and I couldn’t catch my breath. Pulling over on the side of the road, I broke down. Nothing good ever happened to me and I just didn’t understand. All my life I lived my life how I wanted to. The rebellion towards my father gave me the edge to live life freely.
