  “Now, if you wanna be ignorant you go on ahead, but what you won’t do is bring my son and my grandbabies into it. I will fuck you up.” Ann Barnes said and then stood there waiting on Rose to either say something or do something, but she never did. Ann looked at me and then back at Rose. “I’m taking my babies to get something to eat.”

  “Okay, I’ll be there shortly,” I said with a smile.

  “You are going to sit there and let her disrespect me like that?”

  “Yep! You are nothing to me Rose, you gave me life, and for that I’m grateful. You taught me to never depend on anybody, not even you. I am the woman I am today because of who you failed to be in my life. So for that, I say thank you, but that’s about all you get from me.” I turned to go and find Ma Ann and my babies, and a thought crossed my mind. “If you ever in your life disrespect my babies again, you will regret it.” I smiled, waved, and went to get my babies.

  “I’m so ready to see you tomorrow.” I sang.

  “I can’t wait to see you either, how're my babies?”

  “Kyndon is bad as hell and Kayson is just chill.” I laughed at how different they were to have shared a womb. “They will be excited to see you.”

  “I’m glad this shit is almost over.” He sighed heavily like something was bothering him.

  “What’s up?”

  “Nothing baby.”

  “Don’t lie to me, I know you better than you know yourself, so spill it.”

  “Yameka seems to think that we got this case in the bag, she got some shit that is about to bust the prosecution's case wide open.”

  “That’s a good thing baby.”

  “Only thing is if Perry and Krista testify, it may not be enough.”

  “I’m sure they already got that under control,” I assured him. I don’t know if that’s true or not because Yameka is not allowed to talk to us about the case at all, but I got complete faith in my girl.

  “Yeah you right, hell I hope so. I’m so ready to be back with my family.” He sounded so sad and depressed, and I hated that for him. I hated that my man was hurting and there was nothing I could do about it.

  “I’m ready to get married Kayson,” I said in hopes of picking up his spirits.

  “Me too and as soon as I get out of here, we will.”

  “No, I don’t want to wait, I want to do it now.” I pouted.

  “Jenacia chill with that shit because I am not about to be saying I do over the got damn phone.”

  I laughed because he was right, but I wanted to be Mrs. Barnes period, and I didn’t care how it was done. “But you can get conjugal visits then.” I sang, he sat there for a minute like he was thinking about it.

  “Got damn it Jenacia, don’t fucking do that.” He sounded like he was really struggling with his answer and I thought that this was funny, so I busted out laughed and surprisingly he joined me. “Shit ain’t funny I swear I almost said yeah. You know how much I miss them walls.” I could hear the smile in his voice.

  “Mission accomplished.”

  “The fuck you talking about?”

  “Although I want to be Mrs. Barnes more than anything in this world, so I honestly don’t care how we do it at this point, my main goal with that was to make you smile, and I did.”

  “You get on my damn nerves.” He chuckled again.

  “You love me?”

  “More than you will ever know, thank you for riding shit out with a nigga. For real let’s see how this shit goes with this appeal and then we will talk about that.”

  “Okay, but hey,”

  “Sup boo?”

  “You gotta have faith that this shit gonna work.”

  “I do baby, I do.”

  I didn’t believe him, I could hear the doubt in his tone, and I hated it. I wanted him to believe that everything was gonna be okay, because it was. Something was telling me that my man was gonna be home in my arms in no time.

  “I almost forgot.” I said right before we were about to hang up the phone. “I ran into Rose today.”

  “Oh shit, what happened?”

  “Ma Ann smacked her ass.” I laughed.

  “Ann Barnes always putting her hands on folks.” He laughed too.

  “No she deserved it, she was talking a bunch of shit about you leaving me to raise two bastard babies and all that. After it was all said and done, she was put right in her place. I doubt I hear anything else from her and I would be completely okay with that.”

  “Fuck Rose and I don’t want her ass no where near my boys either.”

  “You don’t even have to worry about it.”

  We talked for a few more minutes before we said our goodbyes. I snuggled in my big ass bed and drifted off to sleep with dreams of seeing my love tomorrow.

  Chapter Seven

  Omari

  Every time I talk to Zemia, I swear the conversation goes even more left than before I called. I hated that I had her feeling like that. A nigga’s heart was hurt that I even put her in that position. I didn’t think she would find out and then a part of me felt like she should understand that I had to do what I had to do to stay good in here and make sure my brothers stayed good too. Shit wasn’t working out like that though.

  I was, and I wasn’t looking forward to today's visit. I really wanted to see her beautiful face and kiss her lips, but I didn’t want to risk Shay doing something else fucking dumb and making shit worse. I hadn’t fucked with her since she did that shit. She threatened me a couple of times, but I hit her with one right back. She forgets that she brings me weed and all kinds of other shit, so if I go down so does she.

  “Barnes, I need to have a word with you.” She came around the corner as soon as I got the thought out of my mind.

  “Shay I ain’t in the mood for your shit, I’m about to visit with my woman, and I don’t need this shit from you.”

  “You don’t have a fucking choice.” She opened the cell and ushered me out. I walked to the end and into the room that we normally go into. I walked to the other side and sat down in the chair. “You can’t keep ignoring me and expect me to do all of this stuff for you.”

  “What have I ASKED you to do for me?”

  “The phones for your brothers,” she rolled her eyes.

  “No, you offered that, and I took the offer. I never asked you for shit let’s get that clear, and I’m tired of having this conversation with you!” I was already getting aggravated, and I wanted to have a clear head when Zemia came.

  “But you accepted the offer.”

  “Okay, and?”

  “Look Omari, I’m falling for you, and I want to be with you. I think you should think about that.”

  I laughed. “Fuck outta here with that shit Shay; I don’t want you. You think I wanna be with someone whose walls I can’t even feel? That lets me know that yo’ ass gets around.” I shook my head. “You know how many niggas I done seen you bring back here before yo’ ass decided to fall in love with me,” I smirked because she was dumb as hell if she thought anybody would want her.

  “I pushed out four kids I can’t help that,” she rolled her eyes about that first part. “Me bringing other dudes back here ain’t stop you from fucking me.”

  “Pussy is pussy, and yours was convenient, and it made sure that me and my brothers were good. Point blank period. Nothing more or nothing less.”

  “So, you used me?” I started doing the slow clap for her.

  “Now you get it!”

  “What if I could get you out of here?” She looked at me. “Would you want me then?”

  “Nah shorty I don’t need that, I’m about to get up out of here on my own.”

  “You will not win that little appeal your lawyer got you.” She laughed. “You will be right back here digging me out in no time, and then my deal will be off the table.”

  I shrugged. “I guess that will be a chance that I have to take.”

  “I could give you the world.” She looked at me.

  “Why?”

  �
��Why what?”

  “Why would you want to do anything for me if I treat you the way I do. Like I legit hate you and I get mad at myself every time I have to fuck you. I won’t let you kiss me. I don’t even want to look at you when I fuck you. I clearly have no respect for you, so why?”

  “Because I feel so connected to you.”

  I really laughed then. “How? Is it because of who I am?”

  “Of course, everyone knows about the Barnes Brothers, who wouldn’t want to be on their arm.” She looked down. “I know y’all like riders so I wanted to be that for you so we could be together.”

  “What you are doing ain’t riding fool, it’s fucking dick extortion.” I put my fingers in the shape of a gun and put them to my head and pretended like was going to blow my brains out. I swear this bitch was dumb and I was starting to regret this whole thing. I was tired of all of this shit. “Listen it’s never gonna happen. I don’t want anything from you at all. I’m hoping this will be the last time I see you, to be honest.”

  “I can’t believe you are just willing to forget everything I did for you.”

  “Bitch did you not hear anything that we just talked about; you ain’t did shit! Now take me back to my cell it’s almost my visiting time.”

  “You gonna need me again, watch.” She said as she headed to the door.

  “I highly doubt that, crazy bitch.”

  I walked out and headed down to my cell. When I got there, she opened the cell and let me in. She turned to walk away, and I was glad the conversation was over because the shit was starting to get fucking weird. Right when I thought the coast was clear, she came back.

  “You will regret that.” She pointed down where we had just left.

  “You can play with ya life if you want to.” I looked her dead in the eyes. “If you know all about the Barnes Brothers then you know how we get down.”

  She huffed and then turned on her heels to leave. This bitch was about to be a problem that I didn’t need, too bad I couldn’t focus on that right now. I had to figure out a way to get Zemia to forgive me, and I needed to concentrate on getting the fuck out of here. Hopefully, all of this appeal shit will go through, and I won’t even have to worry about her anymore.

  A while later I was called for my visit, when I got out there the only person was there was Mama. I looked around for Zemia, and I didn’t see her. My heart slowly broke into pieces, and my breath got stuck in my throat. There was no way that I could lose her; I needed her. I had already lost Unc, my brother, and we lost our baby. I couldn’t take another loss like that. I didn’t think that I could take that shit at all. I needed to fix this shit, and I was starting by cutting all ties with that bitch Shay, I would apologize to my brothers for the shit we were about to lose.

  “Get yo’ ass over here.” Mama gritted her teeth. “I should slap the shit out of you.” She said as she hit me upside the head.

  “Damn Ma,” I said rubbing my head. “Where Zemia?” I asked and looked at her.

  “She went to the damn bathroom; I wanted to cuss yo’ ass myself before she came back.” She reached over and hit me again. “You gonna lose a good woman, Omari. Why would you jeopardize that?”

  “I needed to make sure that me and my brothers were gonna be okay in here, Ma.”

  “That’s bullshit, and you know it. You can tell yourself that bullshit, but I know better. You thought that you were gonna be in here forever and you needed to get ya little dingaling wet, that’s all it was.” She pointed at me.

  “It wasn’t even like that, Mama.”

  “You telling me that you did all of this for a got damn cell phone?”

  “Ma, me sleeping with her not only got us a phone to be able to talk to y’all; it guaranteed we stayed out of the bullshit in here. She kept us out of solitary . We got food, weed, shoes and whatever else we needed to survive in here. Y’all just don’t know how bad it gets in here so the easier you can make it for yourself the better, and that’s all I was trying to do. In hindsight I should have gone about it another way. When she offered, I just did it. The only thing I heard was that me and my brothers would be good.” I put my head down because I knew I had fucked up, but I really wasn’t doing this for pleasure, it was all for us.

  “That don’t make it right,” Zemia said walking up on the end of the conversation.

  I jumped up and hugged her like my life depended on it. I could hear Shay on her bullshit about the no touching shit, but I ignored her. I grabbed Zemia’s face and kissed her with so much passion, it drained me.

  “Baby listen, I’m so sorry for how I went about that. My mind wasn’t clear at all. I really fucked up, but I swear it didn’t mean shit. I was literally only doing this for me and my brothers. I swear to you.”

  “You still cheated on me; the reason behind it doesn’t matter. What matters is that you broke my trust. How in the hell do you expect me to be at home knowing you here with her?” She pointed to Shay who was looking dead in our direction.

  “I give you my word.”

  “You gave me your word before, and you lied, so that don’t mean shit to me.”

  “I will spend the rest of my life making this up to you.”

  “I think we should take a little break. I will be here for you through this trial, but as far as us being together I don’t think we should. That way I don’t get hurt in all this.” She moved her hands in the space that she had created in between us.

  “No, I’m not okay with that. I’ve lost too much already I can’t lose you, baby.” My ass was begging. I was damn near in tears. “Just give me time to fix it. This is my last day here, and I already told her to stay the fuck away from me which is why she over there in her got damn feelings. I won’t see her anymore after today.”

  She didn’t say anything she just sat down beside Ma, and I felt defeated. I sat on the other side of the table, and we all made small talk for the rest of the visit. I needed to find a way to fix this and fast, I couldn’t lose my girl. I wouldn’t make it out here without her. Just thinking about that, I knew exactly what I needed to do.

  Chapter Eight

  Unc

  “Yes Ray, take it there, baby.” Sharon moaned as I had her bent over the sofa with one of her legs on the arm. “You’re gonna make me cum, baby.”

  “Bring that shit on,” I said through gritted teeth. We had been going at it for the last 20 minutes, and I was trying to hold on with all my might, but the way she was throwing her round ass back, had me struggling. “Damn I’ma nut with you.” I moaned out.

  Spreading her ass cheeks to give me more room to go deeper was all I needed to get me over the edge. I take it it helped her too, because after the second stroke her walls strangled my dick and I unloaded right into her center.

  We both collapsed on the couch and I closed my eyes because I don’t think I’ve ever been this happy and content with one woman before. She completed me, and it was weird, but I liked it. I looked over at her, and she was about to knock out, so I shook her leg.

  “Get yo’ ass up; you gotta go to work.”

  “Whyyyyyy, you shouldn’t have done that,” she whined, and I laughed. I told her ass that if she kept strutting around like that naked, I was gonna bend her over the couch. She thought it was cute to put on a little show, so I ended the encore with a bang.

  “I told yo’ ass.”

  “You don’t play fair.” She rolled her eyes and tried to get up, but her legs wobbled. I laughed and helped her stand straight up. “Gosh I can’t walk, and somebody’s phone has been ringing off the hook.”

  “Shit!” I yelled out because I forgot that Tate was supposed to meet up with me today so we could meet with the P.I. I scooped her up and carried her to the room right as my phone started to go off again. “Yo,” I said lowering her down to the ground. I slapped her ass as she struggled to the bathroom.

  “Man, I’m out here and I don’t see you.”

  “My bad Tate, give me ten minutes, and I’ll be on my way.”
<
br />   “I should kick yo’ ass man, hurry up.”

  I hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to join Sharon in the shower. She gave me a look as soon as I walked in; I laughed and assured her that I was not fucking with her because I had business to take care of.

  We needed to get a handle on where Krista and Perry were; they would be the only hold up in the boys getting out. The evidence is bogus, and we even got the tapes that Perry was on seem doctored enough to prove reasonable doubt, thanks to Sharon. The only thing was the witnesses. Yameka could easily discredit them, but it would be easier to make them disappear. That was plan A, and if we needed to do some discrediting, we had what we needed to do that too.

  Once I got dressed and left the house, I headed in the direction to meet Tate. I knew he was gonna cuss my ass out when I got there. I pulled up at the spot that we had been meeting up in and parked my car and hopped in his.

  “’Bout got damn time, Ray.”

  “My bad, I lost track of time,” I smiled thinking about the little moment that I had with Sharon.

  “You been fucking and here I am getting cussed out because I don’t spend enough time with my wife.” He mugged me, and I laughed.

  “Man chill, when all this is over we taking them on a nice vacation, and everyone will be all smiles.”

  “Whatever, where the hell is this P.I.?”

  “Let me call him real quick.” I dialed Chris to see where he was. “Aye Chris where you at?”

  “I’m pulling in; I think I might have something for you about this case.” I could hear the smile in his voice. He knew when he brought me good shit then he would get a bonus. I fucks with Chris because he knew how to handle situations like this, and he didn’t ask questions.
