CHAPTER 3
WHAT'S DONE IN DA DARK
You know the old saying what's done in da dark comes out in the light? Boy those words are so true, I didn't have to leave my house to find out Eddie was cheating on me it fell right in my lap while I was sitting in the crib (lol). Alright now let me get back to the story it's about to get real UGLY....
After hanging up the phone with my aunt I decide to call Eddie I was bored, hungry and horny three things I hated being. “Everything good Ma?” he asked picking up the phone on the second ring “Yea everything fine, where you at?” I asked hearing noise in the background he told me he was at his spot; he asked me if I needed anything. I just told him I was bored Lil Eddie kicked me in my rib while I was talking to Eddie, every little thing that happen while I was pregnant made me scared, being on bed rest is no joke Eddie asked if the chief left;
“Yea she been left Ma was here but she left to, I think she with my father, I'm in the kitchen making me a grill cheese sandwich. So, when I'm going to see you?” I asked I missed my boo and I knew the only reason he stayed away from me because he couldn't deal with my mood swings he so called claimed,
“Maybe tomorrow after I wrap everything up, and get your spoil ass back in bed you know you not supposed to be on your feet,” he said I heard a female voice in the background telling him to hurry up off the phone I jumped off the stool pacing back in forth I asked who he was with He replied that him and Teddy was watching the fight,
“Whatever! Why you have to lie Eddie? You got your bitch up there with you and my dumb ass in here carrying your babies fucking up my teenage life for what? A nigga that don't respect me or spend time with me ever since he knocked me up and put the baddest bitch in Harlem on lock, I should've gotten rid of them when I first found out about them,” I yelled heated
“Bitch don't you ever say you was going to kill my seeds, what bitch I got besides your dumb ass?” he yelled back
“Now I'm a bitch? Thanks for telling me how you feel you nothing ass nigga, I made you that nigga you are today because of my name your punk ass can walk the streets of Harlem think about it nigga. I don't need you! You need me nigga. You can have these fucking kids I don't want them and I don't want you,” I yelled hanging the phone up only for it to ring again I picked the phone up yelling what, Eddie really pissed me off
“Why you hang up bitch? Because you don't want to hear what I'm about to say? Well listen carefully, you didn't make me and these nigga's in Harlem don't put no fear in motherfucking heart let’s get that out the way and I don't need your spoil ass I can have any bitch from the five Boro's but I chose your little stuck up ass and yea you want me cause you wouldn't be acting like this. You’re having your little mood swings so I'm going to let that slick shit about you not wanting my kids slide but let me ask you something why you don't want my kids? Cuz they not that nigga Kevin kids?” he laughed making my blood boil even more if that nigga was in front of me I would've shot him between the eye and went on my merry way.’
“You sound like a real lame, I hate you.” I yelled wiping my tears, if he only knew these babies I was carrying might not be his.
“Yea don't think I don't know you still seeing that nigga that's why your sneaky ass always getting in and out of cabs bye Diva,” he banged the phone in my ear I called back but got sent to voice mail; 'Yea your bitch Asia running her gums, tell that bitch every time I see her it's on and that's word to blood, you crab ass nigga fuck you' I left the message knowing it was going to piss him off when I called him a crab because he Crip and when I said word to blood was what they called disrespect, shit I’m not in no funky ass gang but my family and friends are Barkeem and Kevin Blood and my cousin Mel Crip along with my father and uncle Mel with their old asses I called my father to see where he was at
“What's wrong Princess?” he picked the tone of my voice when I said hello “Me and Eddie had a fight,” I told him, he yelled into the phone asking if Eddie touched me. I calmed him down telling him we only had an argument on the phone, he said I didn’t need to be stressing myself out over small stupid shit I agreed with him. This whole pregnancy has been nothing but stressful, I had to deal with sneaking around behind everybody back just so I could I be with Kevin; I wasn’t going to leave him alone and neither was he going to leave me alone. I told my father I made me a grilled cheese sandwich but I wasn’t hungry no more so I was going to bed,
“Why you didn't call me and tell me you was hungry I would've sent Ma back home,” he said “Nah I'm okay love y'all see y'all when you get here,” I said; “We love you too Princess,” he said we hung the phone. I walked back into my room and sat on the bed thinking about what Eddie said to me before he hung up in my ear, I looked over to my cell phone ringing it brought me outta my funk as I looked at the caller id it was Barkeem I picked up on the third ring.
“Hi Bar,” I said smiling like he could see me through the phone, I really needed someone to talk too and I knew I couldn’t call Kevin and tell him I was stressed out over what Eddie said to me Because knowing him he would’ve went looking for Eddie so he can beat the living shit out of him.
“What's good baby girl? How you feeling?” he asked sounding so good with his deep voice
“I'm hanging in there, I want to get out this fucking house it's like I'm in jail, I'm sick of looking at these four walls” I laughed
“Get dress I'm on my way” he said hanging up, I got off the bed went inside the bathroom brushed my teeth and washed my face again then went and put on some leg warmers with a sweater dress from Polo that was light purple and gold with my Gold knee high Uggs boots I packed some stuff and sat back on my bed I called Asia phone while I waited for Bar to come get me, I *69 so my number would be blocked I waited for her to answer the phone and she did after the fifth ring
“Who this?” She asked I didn't say anything I wanted to hear if Eddie was around her she said hello again this time Eddie must've grabbed the phone because he started speaking
“Yo who the fuck playing on my girl phone? I'm trying to fuck,” my heart broke in two, there I had all the proof that needed about Eddie fucking Asia. “Thanks for confirming what I already knew” I said hanging up Barkeem rung the bell once, I grabbed my bag my keys and phone then walked out the house. He took my overnight bag from me and we walked to his Red Range Rover that he double parked, he asked me where I wanted to go and I didn’t have a clue all I wanted to do was get out the house and away from everybody for a few days, I told him about the argument me and Eddie had and what I heard over the phone while he drove hitting the highway; I asked where he was taking me seeing as though he took the 59th street bridge going into Queens. Bar let me know he had a lil spot in Queens that nobody knew about that I could stay at without anybody popping up, he also told me he would wait hand and foot for me; it took us two hours to get to his spot which was dead in the hood on the south side of Queens, the apartment was cool. Everything was black and red the red leather sofa sat in the middle of the floor on top of a black mink rug the 50” flat screen T.V sat on the wall with over a thousand DVD's Bose DVD player with surround sound speakers, his kitchen was a little small but was well kept and his room was red and green he had a king size bed with two night stands on each side. I sat down on the bed Bar walked in the room asking me if I was hungry while taking off his sweater an throwing it on the chair that sat on the far corner of his room, I responded with a quick no while removing my Uggs, Bar looked at me and shook his head; “Let that shit go Diva, don’t even think about that shit,” he said walking over to me “It’s hard not to think about that shit Bar this nigga straight played me and with some bitch I called a friend they both sitting there fucking and smiling in my face like shit is peaches n cream,” I said not realizing the tears rolling down my face Bar wiped my face then pulled me to his chest as he sat on the bed.
“I know how you feel but it’s not good for you to be stressed out while you’re pregnant it’s not good for the babies so I’m telling you
to stop thinking about that shit and relax ma,” he said I looked at him and smiled he always had a thing with words even when me and Hershey was young and thought we were grown him and Sha kept it real with us about what these nothing ass niggas wanted from us.
“Thanks Bar, you always know what to say,” I said kissing his cheek “That’s all I get a kiss on cheek, damn Diva I’m hurt.” he joked backing up from me I stood up from the bed and walked up to him wrapping my arms around his neck I kissed his lips then slid my tongue inside his mouth after two minutes I pulled away my pussy was dripping and I knew if I kept up with the kiss I would’ve been naked getting my back dug out; I smirked while telling him that was all he was getting. It’s not like I don’t know how Barkeem sex game is we did the do more than once but I wasn’t going to disrespect Eddie or Kevin like that and fuck another nigga while I was carrying their babies shit that’s how I got in this mess and didn’t know who my kids father is. Barkeem walked out the room smiling and closing the door leaving me with my thoughts I removed my clothes and threw on one of Bar’s t-shirts and climb on the bed I thought about what Hershey might do when she found out about Eddie and Asia Betraying me, I knew she was going to hit the fucking roof, I picked up my phone and hit two her phone rang once before going to voicemail I hung up and called again still no answer so I sent a text,
Me: Bitch why u not answering your jack, I could be dying and your ass wouldn’t even know two seconds past and my phone rung.
“Hello”
“Bitch what happen? You alright?” she fired questions at me
“Hoe calm down and breathe, catch your breath,” I laughed holding my stomach and flicking the channels on the TV,
“Bitch I was fucking and I heard the phone ring but I was about to cum when your ass called back then I got the text so I knew something had to happen,” she laughed
“TMI bitch I don’t need to know you was Cumming when I was calling your ass, but I could let you know I’m good and the babies,” I said shaking my head at my crazy best friend she asked what happen for me to call her back to back then text her, I heard her light her blunt I told her Eddie and Asia were fucking She laughed telling me how I’ve been saying that shit for months now. I was quiet on the other line and she picked up on it, she stopped laughing so I can tell her the whole run down and she was livid; “Oh hell no that bitch going to get fucked up that’s some grimy shit and Eddie that nigga is on my shit list word to blood, Teddy you knew your nasty ass brother was cheating on my girl with that trash bucket Asia?” Hershey tune my ass out and was going ham on Teddy I was cracking up listening to them, they been together for five months and he treated her like a queen anything she needed or didn’t need that nigga made sure she had it he just brought her a white Mercedes CE 500,
“Hersh leave him alone he got to respect the code so it’s understandable that is his brother, but I’m going to let you get back to fucking you better whip it on that nigga he might buy you a Range next,” I joked laughing even harder
“Whatever bitch I’ll talk to you later love you” I felt both babies kicking me that was their way of telling me they were hungry,
“Love you too, night.” I said hanging up I knew she would upset at me when she learn I wasn’t home and I wouldn’t be for two weeks, I turned my phone off so I wouldn’t be bothered for the two weeks I was hiding out.
I looked at the cable box and seen Barkeem was gone out the room for an hour so I got up and open the door
“Bar,” I called out to him he answered back and walked over to me I asked him what he was doing
“Business baby girl I had to cut and weight some shit before tomorrow and I didn’t want to do that shit around you so I came into the kitchen, you thirsty?” he asked
“Yea you got any juice?” I asked going back into the room, Bar came in the room with an apple juice then he went into the bathroom and took a shower by the time he came out I was already sleep I felt when he got in the bed and wrapped his arms around me. Week one was good me and Bar stayed up all night and slept most of the day between him making runs and picking up money I knew my voicemail was looking crazy a whole week and nobody could find me and I wasn’t worrying about calling anybody I was relaxing just like the doctor ordered. Bar did everything Eddie didn’t do or wouldn’t do he rubbed my feet and my back and helped me wash and he made sure I took my prenatal meds. We both took turns cooking and had a ball playing that damn Wii and PlayStation 3 I kept busting his and every nigga online ass on Call of Duty, Week two I started missing my father, Mary and most of all Hershey I knew she was worried about me and the babies and I knew she was going to be pissed off with both me and Barkeem for not telling her what was up;
“Baby girl your pops put a $50,000 reward on your head,” Barkeem said coming into the apartment
“What?” I asked putting the bowel of strawberries down on the coffee table
“Yup he put $50,000 just for info on your whereabouts and $100,000 for anybody to bring him to you or you to him,” he told me sitting down on the sofa next to me then grabbing my foot, he begin rubbing my feet.
“I bet the whole Harlem is looking for me with their thirsty asses,” I stated picking my bowel back up, Bar started laughing. As we sat there talking Bar phone rang he looked at the screen and put his phone down on the coffee table Bar told me Hershey said when she found me she was going to collect her bread then fuck me up, we shared a laugh. I told him I bet her crazy ass did say some slick shit like that, but I was ready to go home and face the music; the next day Bar drove me back to Harlem, I left everything I had brought to his crib there. We just gotten off the FDR on 125th street cause we had to stop in Brooklyn before we made our way to Harlem when I spotted Asia and Star getting out a cab on 125th and Lexington Barkeem was sitting at a red light so I jumped outta the car like I wasn’t big ass a fucking house and walked up to them I was about to go HAM;
“Omg Diva where have you been? Everybody was worried about you we thought you was kidnapped,” Asia said I grilled her up and down, Star seen the look in my eyes and moved back she knew how I got down
“Well as you can see I wasn’t kidnapped but I know you steaming inside because I’m back and you can’t clam my spot you nasty sneaky backstabbing bitch,” I said before she can say anything I swung punching her in the face her nose started leaking like a pipe broke I didn’t give her a chance to try to fight me back I kept swinging and landing punch after punch until she couldn’t take it no more and fell to the ground and I began kicking her,
“Stay the fuck away from my baby’s father, I swear the next time I see you it’s going to be on. I’m going to tear you a new asshole every time you cross my path you nasty slut,” I said about to kick her again when I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around me and lift me in the air
“Ma calm your ass down, what the fuck is wrong with you fighting while you carrying my seeds,” I heard Kevin say Bar helped Asia off the ground while onlookers stood there with their camera phones out I knew that fight was going to be on world star and YouTube, Kevin walked me to his Range and open my door before going to the other side. Kevin told Barkeem he was going to holla at him later to rap about some shit. Bar walked to my side of the car and leaned inside the window
“Yea make sure you take her crazy ass home before she hurt herself and them babies, Baby girl you wild as hell make sure she don’t do no more mission impossible shit like jumping outta fucking cars,” Bar said laughing and walking back to his car. Kevin got inside the Range and drove off without as much as looking at me
“Kevin I’m sorry for putting myself and the babies in danger,” I said breaking the tension in the car, he didn’t say anything I sigh
“Kevin,” I called out to him putting my hand on top of his, he didn’t move my hand he kept driving I could see he was battling with his anger;
“Diva what made you do some dumb shit like that and where the fuck you been for two weeks?” he exploded I only seen this side of him once and I didn’t wa
nt to see it right now, I pulled my hand back and started crying uncontrollable I told him everything that went down with Eddie starting with the phone calls and me calling Asia phone and Eddie confirming what I knew that they was fucking behind my back Kevin looked at me with a cold stare;
“I don’t give a flying fuck what that nigga did, you don’t have no fucking reason running off for two weeks and fighting while you carrying my seeds,” he said pulling up in front of my house, I looked at my house then back to Kevin as he took his phone out and called somebody then hung up. Next thing I know both my uncle and father came running out the front door. My father was the first to reach the Range he open the door and picked me up; I wrapped my arms around my daddy neck and started crying
“Diva what’s wrong? Are you hurt?” my father asked looking me over he seen the blood on my hands and shirt
“What happen to you Princess?” my father damn near yelled, Kevin told them that it wasn’t my blood o he told them he found me on 125th fighting Asia while walking behind us into the house.
“Thank god you alright princess, you had us so worried.” Mary said running to my father
“I’m sorry ma I won’t do that again,” I told her hugging her once my father put me down
“You make me want to whoop your ass, disappearing and shit,” my uncle said hugging me tight like I was going vanish; I looked at everybody that I loved and I felt like a fool for making them worry about me, after explaining everything that went down I told them I wanted to lay down my body was hurting something bad.
“Thank you Kevin I owe you nigga,” my father said shaking Hands with Kevin
“Nah Mel you don’t owe me shit that’s my job, to make sure the family is straight. Diva don’t do that shit again and I mean it you got to think about your babies,” he said looking into my eyes, I walked to him and hugged him
