  “I won’t tell him nothing,” she said.

  “Good, now when I feel better we need to go over some things. You cannot be dressing like you do and all of that extra shit you be doing while you are trying to be me. He won’t buy it,” I said.

  “I know that. Now, where are you? I’m going to catch a cab to you. You sound horrible,” she said. I rolled my eyes. She didn’t even have decent transportation.

  “No, I’m fine. I just need to be alone. I’m in so much pain I had to come to the hospital,” I said.

  “What hospital are you at, Tassana? You don’t need to be alone,” Tokyo snapped.

  “The doctor just walked in. Gotta go, bye,” I hung up. Kauzie was getting more money and a bigger house. Nobody deserved that more than me. Tokyo was about to help me get it all and I didn’t have to do shit but sit back and enjoy my time with Tudos.

  Kauzie

  I was chilling in front of No Hands’ crib. I hadn’t been home yet. I had been crashing at my parents’ house for the last few days. Tassana had been blowing my phone up. Not once have I answered her calls or responded to her messages. That sneaky girl was up to something. Now, I’m standing here arguing with Tokyo about stupid shit.

  “Take the whip, Tokyo. You need it. I’m not tripping over it,” I said giving her the keys to my Audi. She pushed it away and I didn’t understand why.

  “I don’t want it!” she yelled storming into No Hands’ crib. I followed behind her. I grabbed her arm to turn her around and she snatched away from me.

  “Yo, what’s going on with you?” I asked her. Her eyes watered then she turned her head to avoid looking at me.

  “It’s like that now between us?” I asked backing up from her.

  “We are just supposed to be friends!” she screamed.

  “It’s too late for that shit, don’t you think? Matter of fact, I’m not your damn friend. We grew up and out of that shit. I’m supposed to be your fucking nigga,” I said grilling her. She shook her head.

  “I’m dating someone. There, I said it. I’m seeing Geechie. I like him so you need to work shit out with Tassana. We cannot do her like this. It’s wrong!” Tokyo screamed.

  “Bitch, no it ain’t. Kauzie, don’t listen to that bitch. That’s that good kush she just smoked. Got her hallucinating talking about you need to work shit out with Tassana,” Kyree said eating a dill pickle out of a Ziploc bag. The pickle was drenched in hot sauce.

  “Oh, and when you started seeing Geechie? That’s community dick boo-boo,” Kyree said to Tokyo while biting into her pickle.

  “Mind your business,” Tokyo snapped at her.

  “Whatever. Fuck, Tassana. Y’all two are so in love it’s almost sad. Everybody can see the shit. This is long overdue,” Kyree said.

  “Don’t say shit about Tassana. Not a fucking word Kyree or I would knock you the hell out,” Tokyo said storming out of the house.

  “Something is wrong with that crazy ass girl and I’m going to figure it out,” Kyree said.

  “Fuck that bitch,” I said.

  “You don’t mean that,” Kyree said. I waved her off. Fuck Tokyo. She wanted a nigga like Geechie to destroy her life again, that’s her business. I couldn’t believe she threw another nigga’s name in my face.

  “Ay, No Hands, where that nigga Geechie be at?” I asked him.

  “He be over on Eastport. But I know sometimes he be down on Robinwood too,” No Hands said.

  “I need whatever Tokyo got in her pussy. Maybe No Hands would be able to keep his dick in his pants,” Kyree said aloud.

  “Kyree, don’t bring that shit over here. I’m not trying to hear your loud mouth ass,” No Hands said to her getting off the step. She took her pickle out of the bag then stuck it in No Hands mouth.

  He tried gripping it to pull it out but his nubs were slipping off the pickle. I yanked it out of his mouth.

  “What you do that for?” I asked Kyree. Something is wrong with that girl. She does crazy shit all of the time.

  No Hands went into the house. He came back out with his prostatic hands on.

  “OH SHIT!” Kyree shouted hopping down the steps. She tried making a run for it until No Hands grabbed her shirt. He slapped her on the back of the head.

  “Bitch, don’t you ever stick nothing like that in my mouth again,” he said pushing her on the ground.

  “Fuck you. I’m sick of you keep hurting me, you lying, no good, handicap bitch,” she cried. I shook my head at them, as I sat on the step and rolled up. A black Grand Marquis drove by with Future’s song Trap Niggas blasting. The car stopped and Dez hopped out of the whip.

  “My fucking nigga,” Dez said walking to the house. I gave him dap then smirked.

  “What you doing over here nigga?” I asked him as Kyree and No Hands tussled in the yard.

  “Shit, I was over the bitch, Koesha’s house down the block. I had to get the fuck up out of there. That bitch was trying to stab me,” he said and I laughed. Dez was a wild lil’ hood nigga. He had his own clique. Everywhere they went they shut it down. They even ran the older niggas out of the hood.

  “What you do nigga?” I asked him lighting the blunt.

  “You know that bitch Kiwanna that lives across the hall from Tokyo? Well anyways, I’ve been smashing her on the late night. Keosha found out about it and all hell broke loose. She was trying to have me like Yung Joc when that broad handcuffed him to the bed,” he said then I chuckled.

  “Why you keep fucking all these broads tho’ my nigga?” I asked him.

  “Why not? I’m only eighteen. Forget these broads out here. They only want a nigga if they think he got some street credit or big pockets. Naw my G, it can’t go like that. I want a broad to feel me for me,” he said.

  Something heavy flew past me knocking the blunt out of my hand.

  “WHAT THE FUCK!” I said standing up. I looked down on the ground and it was one of No Hands’ fake hands.

  “What the fuck is going on? Body parts flying and shit. Nigga, am I that high?” Dez asked me.

  “Naw, No Hands’ hand flew over here,” I said walking towards them. I yanked Kyree off of No Hands. She was swinging wildly on him.

  “Take your ass home,” I told Kyree.

  She gave No Hands the middle finger. “Bitch, you just mad because you can’t do this,” she said giving him another one.

  “That’s exactly why I fuck other bitches, now,” No Hands said out of breath.

  “Good. And that’s why my new nigga can finger me while he eat my pussy, hoe,” Kyree yelled running towards her car because No Hands ran after her.

  “Bitch, you fucking other niggas? I will kill you,” he gritted. Kyree got into her car then peeled off.

  Dez was on the step laughing and choking. He was holding his stomach.

  “Yo, your fucking hand just fell out of the sky like a meteoroid nigga. I didn’t know what the fuck it was. I thought we were being attacked by terrorists,” Dez said wiping tears out of his eyes.

  “You think Kyree fucking with another nigga though?” he asked me. Dez and I fell over laughing.

  “Damn, Kyree got your head gone like that? I could never tell. You stay dogging shorty out,” Dez told No Hands. Dez wasn’t lying about that part. No Hands treated Kyree like shit. He even had a child by another broad that Kyree knew nothing about. Tokyo didn’t even know about No Hands’ kid. I feel bad for him when it hits the fan. I don’t think Kyree was taking that nigga back after that.

  “I would kill her. I swear I would kill her,” No Hands said. My phone rang and it was Mya.

  “What’s up shorty?” I asked her.

  “Nothing, getting ready to go to this party around American Legions. You should stop through. They are having a go-go band playing. Where are you at?” she asked me.

  “I’m out on Parole, over No Hands’ crib. I might slide through,” I told her smirking.

  “Okay boo,” she said hanging up.

  “Tokyo fucking you up,” Dez said.


  “Tokyo is just a homie. I’m not going to keep chasing her. She’s been tripping on me. Yo, I even ate her fucking pussy. I ain’t never put my mouth on twat,” I whispered like we wasn’t the only niggas standing in front of the house.

  “Whattttttttttt? Oh shit, let’s celebrate. Kauzie just became a man. I was wondering how your chin hair got fuller. That’s that good ass pussy juice,” Dez said.

  “Nigga you bluffing, you didn’t eat the box,” No Hands said to me.

  “I did nigga. That shit was sweet too,” I smirked. I talked to them for a little bit then left to go home. I called Jessup up to tell him meet me at the party. I needed to take a shower and get dressed. I smelled like paint and other chemicals from when I was at work hours ago.

  I pulled up and Tassana’s car was in the driveway. I wasn’t for her shit today. I hope she said nothing to me. When I walked into the crib, the TV was on in the living room. It’s nine at night and it’s a Friday. I was surprised Tassana was not out hanging with Kai.

  “Hey, how are you?” she asked me with her arms crossed.

  “I’m good and yourself?” I asked her walking up the stairs to my bedroom. She followed behind me. I knew it was getting ready to be some shit.

  “What you want, Tassana?” I asked taking my shirt off. She rubbed her hand down my back then massaged my shoulders. It felt good I will admit.

  “Why are you so tense?” she asked me.

  “Working and this situation I’m in got me beat,” I said walking away from her.

  “What situation?” she asked me.

  “I’m in love with Tokyo, but you are still here,” I said to her then she gave me a smirk.

  “I know you are, but I’m working on finding a place now. I hope she makes you very happy, but then again, doesn’t she mess with Geechie? She told me all about their little date. So, Kauzie, how are you fitting into her life? You are not a drug dealer. That’s something Tokyo adores. So you telling me you are in love with her doesn’t mean shit to me. I actually don’t care anymore. I hope you have fun tonight. I’m about to catch up on ‘Power’,” she said switching out of the room.

  “That ass still phat though,” I said chuckling.

  “Fuck you, Kauzie!” she shouted.

  “I would but my dick can’t get hard,” I said taking off my clothes.

  After I got out of the shower, I got dressed. I wore a True Religion t-shirt with True Religion jeans. On my feet were a pair of white and gray Nike Huarache’s.

  I grabbed my wallet, cell phone and truck keys off of the bed. I headed back down the stairs. Tassana was drinking wine and watching TV.

  “Bring your sexy ass over here and give me a kiss,” she said walking towards me. She played with my dog tags as she looked me in the eyes.

  “Naw girl, you wild. I might be home later. Lock the door,” I said walking towards it.

  “OK, cool. Send me a text if you stay out. I should be going to bed shortly,” she said walking back to the couch.

  “What’s up with you, Tassana?” I asked her.

  “Nothing, we are not together. We are just roommates. I get it now, Kauzie. I won’t bug you. Just give me a few months until I start working and saving my money up, so I can move. I’m sleeping in the other bedroom from now on. That way you won’t feel the need to stay out all of the time,” she said.

  “Okay bet. When am I going to meet your nigga?” I asked her.

  “There is nobody else,” she spat.

  “This is why we didn’t work, Tassana. You lie too much. Then you are sneaky. You are up to something. But whatever it is I hope you leave Tokyo out of it. I’m serious too,” I said to her. She waved me off as I walked out of the house.

  When I pulled up to American Legions, it was jam-packed. No Hands said he rode with Dez. When I got out of the truck, No Hands and Dez were standing on the side of the building smoking.

  “Y’all niggas are about to get locked up,” I said.

  “Whatever nigga. We got bail money.” Dez said laughing.

  “Heeyyyyyy Kauzie,” Aries spoke to me. Mya followed up behind her. Aries and Mya were cousins but they looked like they could pass for sisters.

  Mya gave me a hug then kissed my face.

  “You staying with me tonight?” she asked me. I heard Lil’ Webbie’s song Gimme That playing loudly. I turned around and it was Tokyo, Kyree and Kyree’s little ratchet sister, Shimmy getting out of Kyree’s car. Tokyo was ready to make me put my hands on her.

  Tokyo had on some black shorts with blue sandals that strapped all the way up her leg. She had on a blue shirt that made her breast almost pop out. Her silver earrings were almost the size of hula-hoops. Her long pointy nails could be spotted a mile away. She got closer to us and I could see the blue eye shadow and blue glitter lipstick on her face. She puffed on her blunt out in the open, then passed it to Shimmy. When she got to me, she blew the smoke in my face.

  “Damn, Tokyo, you looking tooooo thick in them shorts. I’m not your man, but I’m ready to make you go home,” Dez said laughing.

  “Shut that shit up nigga. What are you doing out here anyway? You are not old enough to get in,” Tokyo said with her hands on her hips.

  “I’m grown shorty. When you going to let me hit that Shimmy?” Dez asked feeling up her skirt. Shimmy licked her lips.

  “When you stop fucking Keosha’s dirty ass, I might let you scratch and sniff,” she said pushing Dez out of her way.

  “You can’t speak, Shimmy?” No Hands asked her. She gave him the finger. Shimmy didn’t like No Hands because of the way he does Kyree.

  “Get your ass back here, Shimmy. Let me holla at you,” Dez said following behind her.

  “What’s this, Kauzie?” Tokyo asked.

  “A party, what the fuck does it look like?” I asked her. Mya stood closer to me mean mugging Tokyo. Tokyo raised her eyebrow then looked at Kyree smiling.

  “Oh, bitch, you lightweight,” Tokyo said to Mya. She and Kyree walked off laughing.

  “Let me holla at you, Kyree,” No Hands said to her.

  “Get the fuck away from me hoe,” she said as she disappeared into the building. No Hands looked hurt.

  “Don’t worry about it boo,” Aries said to No Hands. He was messing with her too, but Aries didn’t run off with her mouth. That was how I met Mya, through Aries, and sometimes we four would link up.

  After I walked in, I ditched Mya. She was all up on me like I was her nigga. She even went as far as trying to kiss me. Tokyo was in the crowd dancing and I could tell by her body movements, she was tipsy. I stood back and watched her as I sipped my double shot of Henny straight.

  Tokyo

  “Why is Kauzie looking at you like that?” Shimmy asked me. That’s why I didn’t hang with too many females because that was all they did was talk. I came here to party and to get a few things off of my mind. Now, Kyree and her little sister kept asking me questions about Kauzie. I know he was in his feelings about earlier, but I couldn’t control that. The more he got pissed off at me, the easier it would be for him to let me go. She leaves in one week. One week from now my life would never be the same. I was going to officially lose him.

  “Hey pretty gyal,” Jessup said hugging me. I hugged him back then kissed his cheek.

  “What are you doing here?” I asked him.

  “I came to party with my niggas,” he said smiling.

  “Be careful in here now. It’s a lot of thirsty ass hoes in here. I know how you do when you get drunk,” I said laughing. He chuckled then looked at Kauzie.

  “What’s up between y’all now? Y’all have more problems than a married couple. Y’all need counseling,” Jessup said.

  “That’s our problem. We have married couple problems when we are just friends,” I said sipping my Gin straight.

  “Get me Bodied,” came on. Kyree and Shimmy went crazy. I felt sorry for Kyree. She cried her heart out earlier before we came to the party. No Hands was my best friend and I know he does Kyree wrong, but I c
ouldn’t tell her that. I hated the way he did Kyree. When I fussed at him about it, he told me to mind my business. I hope she does move on.

  “Let me go holla at him. I see you later,” Jessup said hugging me again.

  “Girrlllllll, Jessup is fine. Lawd, I heard he got a big dick too,” Kyree said swaying her hips.

  “That’s too close to home, Kyree. Your butt will get killed. No Hands will put them fake hands on and kill your ass with them. He might shoot you too,” I said. Shimmy was eyeing Dez and I shook my head.

  “Shimmy, what are you looking at Dez for? He is only eighteen,” I said to her.

  “So, I’m nineteen. That lil’ nigga is fine. And I heard he’s slinging some heavy dick,” Shimmy said. Kyree popped her on the back of the head.
