“Here,” he threw my pants and my panties and closed the door back.
Chapter Forty-Six
Divine
“Yo, Divine, come here!” Glory yelled from the back room.
I grabbed PJ, put him on my hip and walked to the back room. Milo was in the hallway half naked and putting her clothes back on. I just walked around her. When I got into the back room, I saw that there were no covers on the bed, and weed ashes on the floor. This was truly a trap house… click house… whatever you wanna call it.
“What?” I asked as I saw him, Lu Lu, Kipp and Dee Boy loading weapons.
“Dee Boy found Bishop and Malina. You down to ride or nah?” he asked.
“You know I am. Hold on,” I said as I took PJ back into the living room with Neiman and ran back into the room.
“Good, ’cause it’s either now or never. And he with the niggas that he sent to kill Milo, so I’m on they ass too,” Glory said.
“I’m in,” I said as I pulled my nine from the small of my back. Ever since that shit with Dre and Fat Boy, I didn’t leave the house without it.
“It’s more than them niggas in this house, so if they ain’t gone by the time we get there, we have to kill everyone but Malina. You know that, right?” Glory asked.
“Yeah.”
“And you cool with that?” Lu Lu asked.
“Yeah, man.”
“We just gotta ask ’cause ya ass froze up last time,” Kipp joked.
“Nigga, is that nut on the mattress?” I asked as my eyes zoomed in on what looked like cum. It was dripping off the mattress onto the floor.
Kipp laughed. “Yo, Divine. Mind ya business.”
“Overstood,” I said as we all shared a laugh.
“Where y’all going?” Neiman asked with PJ on her hip.
“What the fuck was the point in me bringing him in there with you just for you to bring him back in here?” I asked, immediately getting annoyed with her presence.
She was simply in my way. I just wanted my road dawg back. Malina and I fussed and fought, but that was my nigga, man. I missed her like hell. We just needed to have a long talk. That’s it.
“We found Malina and Bishop,” Glory said.
“Okay, so call the police and send them over there,” she said.
“What? Then Bishop will be in jail, and who’s to say they will convict him?” I asked.
“Let them handle it, Divine.”
“We don’t let the police handle our work. It’s street justice all day, lil’ mama,” Kipp said as he put the choppa on his shoulder and walked out.
“We’ll be in the duck off van outside,” Lu Lu said as he and Dee Boy also walked out.
“Neiman, take PJ and go sit the fuck down. Please,” Glory said. I could tell he was extremely frustrated with her. I was too.
“I’ll take him,” Milo said as she walked in and grabbed PJ.
“If y’all got too much pride to call them, I will,” Neiman said, pulling out her phone.
“Malina will die!” I yelled.
Before I could get to her, Glory had her slammed against the wall. He took her phone and slammed it right next to her head, but he didn’t hit her. It scared the fuck outta me though. Her too, judging by the way she flinched.
“Neiman, this is my very last time asking you to go sit down.”
“Okay… okay,” she said.
I was confused as to why this was new to her or why she acted like it was. She knew we weren’t gonna keep the police in our business. Hell, PJ already had an Amber Alert out on him in Texas, and we had just called in to get that off. They didn’t find him anyway… we did. Fuck did we need them for?
“When Malina gets back, you going back to Dallas. And that’s my word,” I said before I walked out.
When I went outside, Lu Lu blew the horn to an old bust down van that was parked across the street from the trap house. I nodded my head and ran over to hop in the passenger side. Dee Boy and Kipp were in the back. Glory also slid in the back when he came out. Then Neiman came running out.
“Open the door,” she said.
Lu Lu looked back at Glory. “Open it?”
“Neiman, what the fuck?” I asked.
“Ma, take yo damn ass back in the house. Goddamn, you annoying the fuck outta me right now,” Glory said
“Milo said she would watch PJ,” Neiman said.
“Drive off,” I told Lu Lu.
“Just go inside, Neiman. We’ll be right back. I promise,” Lu Lu said as he started the ignition. She began to cry.
“Oh hell,” I groaned.
“Is she crying?” Kipp laughed.
“My mans, tame ya girl,” Dee Boy said to Glory as he laughed with Kipp.
“Nigga, I know you ain’t talkin’ ’bout tame a bitch? You can never tame ya hoes,” Kipp shot back at Dee Boy.
“Fuck y’all,” Glory said as he slid the back door open and talked to Neiman. “What’s good? The fuck you crying for?” Glory asked.
“What if y’all die? I came in handy last time, remember?” She was now crying like a child.
“You turning me off. And I just want you to know that,” Glory tried to whisper to her but we still heard him. I know they did ’cause Kipp started mocking him.
“Kipp, just chill. She’s really looking out for us,” Lu Lu said, looking at Kipp in the back through the rearview mirror.
“And shut yo ass up too,” Dee Boy said to Lu Lu.
“That’s your problem. You play too much. Why y’all keep this man around anyway?” Lu Lu asked Kipp, referring to Dee Boy.
I turned my attention back to Glory and Neiman. “Can I just sit in the car?” she asked.
Glory took a deep breath and looked around. “Where ya gun at, man?” he asked.
“Right here.” She pulled out her strap too.
Glory let her in the van.
“So you getting soft now?” Dee Boy asked.
“Yo, let me shoot that man,” Lu Lu said as we pulled off.
“This nigga got both his bitches passing blunts and shit,” Dee Boy said.
“You still going home when we get Malina back,” I said.
“Shit, take her ass back now,” Dee Boy said.
“I’ght, chill. You doing too much now,” Kipp said.
“I got something for that nigga though,” Glory said with a sly grin on his face.
Chapter Forty-Seven
Malina
“I don’t give a fuck, Jenson! Mama told me to watch the house while she out of town, and you got bitches in here tied up?” a girl yelled at one of the men.
I saw their faces when I first came in, but now I was in the back room chained to the bed with nothing but a swim suit on. He even let me do my makeup.
“Bitch, shut the fuck up!”
“Whatever, I’m out. I don’t have time for this shit, and I don’t want no parts.”
I heard a door slam.
“Damn, Bishop, this bitch got a fat ass,” Monty said as he came back into the room where I was.
“Nigga, can’t touch her unless you wanna pay. And you gotta strap up,” Bishop said, walking into the room eating ice cream.
“Why I gotta strap up?” Monty asked.
“Nigga…” Bishop gave him a look that said, ‘Do you really want me to say it?’
“How much?” Monty asked.
“Nigga, what the fuck you doing?” Noodle asked as he and Jenson came into the room.
“Shit, we just dry sitting here. I wanted some action,” Monty said.
“I’m waiting on somebody. It’s a surprise for the beautiful Malina,” Bishop said with a hearty laugh as he walked away.
“Come on, nigga. Leave this bitch alone,” Noodle said as he waited for Monty and Jenson to leave. Then he left and shut the door.
I kept wondering what this surprise that Bishop kept speaking of was. This was getting weird. It’s like he was waiting on a storm to brew.
Chapter Forty-Eight
Milo
/> “Where they going?” Pinky asked.
“They found Bishop, Monty, Noodle, Jenson and that Malina girl.”
“Who’s that?” Pinky asked.
“I don’t know.”
“Damn,” she responded as she went into the kitchen.
Today was getting weirder and weirder by the day. I was happy to have PJ again, and he was happy to see me. This kid was just perfect.
“Is it some carrots in there?” I asked Pinky. She didn’t answer. “Pinky!” Still no answer.
I got up to see what was wrong. “Boo!” She said when I turned the corner into the kitchen.
“Don’t play like that,” I said as I grabbed PJ tight.
“Just a joke. Chill. We ’bout to be good. They killing them niggas tonight.”
“I guess you’re right,” I said. But something still didn’t feel right. I felt something in the air that was warning me.
“It ain’t no carrots for lil’ man. We can go get some,” Pinky said.
“But Kipp got drugs in here.”
“What that mean?”
“Bitch, he didn’t leave the key to the door and we’re the only ones here,” I said.
“That’s right. Let’s watch TV then, I guess,” she said as she reached for PJ and he went to her.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. “I got it,” Pinky said with PJ still on her hip.
“Who that?” I asked as she peeked out the peep hole.
“A woman. Probably want some work.” She opened the door.
“Malina!” PJ yelled.
“Malina?” Pinky asked, turning to me.
“Pinky, shut the door!” I yelled when I thought about what was going on.
“Shit!” Pinky yelled as she tried to shut the door, but it came flying in, pushing her and PJ to the ground.
I tried to run to the back to grab the strap, but someone pulled me back.
“I thought you’d be happy to see me,” I heard a voice say.
I turned around with my hands up. I shoulda known it wouldn’t be that easy to get him. I knew something was up.
“Bishop.”
Chapter Forty-Nine
Malina
“Nah, Dee Boy in the van with them on the way here. He said Divine brought the bricks to the trap house and they still there,” Bishop said as he and Noodle walked back into the room to grab some guns.
“What that mean?” Noodle asked.
“Nigga, we ’bout to go and get the bricks while they think they ’bout to get us,” Bishop said as he uncuffed me and held onto my hair like a dog so I wouldn’t move.
“Ay, come here!” someone yelled from the living room.
“Don’t move,” Bishop said as he ran into the living room with Noodle close behind.
I had to think fast. I knew Divine would soon be here, so I had to let her know some kinda way. Finally, I found a pen. Then I tore the tag off the mattress and wrote:
Dee Boy set y’all up. Go back to the trap house –Malina
I hurried and balled the paper up in my hand then threw the pen when I heard Bishop coming back.
“Dee Boy said they close, we gotta go,” Bishop said to Noodle as he grabbed me and yanked me out.
I dropped the tag on the floor, praying to God that Divine would read it.
“Get in,” Monty said as we got to Bishop’s rental. He then pushed me in the back seat while Bishop and Noodle hopped in the front. The whole ride to the trap house, Monty had his nasty ass hands in my pussy. I could just spit in his face.
“There it is,” Jenson said as he pointed to a house.
“Yeah, that’s it. Dee Boy said it would be a van outside that Divine had,” Bishop said.
“Well, who car is that?” Noodle asked, pointing at another car.
“That’s Milo’s car. Malina, go knock on the door,” Bishop said.
“No,” I said boldly.
It got quiet, like I was a kid in trouble or some shit. He then reached down, grabbed some alcohol and threw it in my face. “Bitch, go knock on the fucking door ’fo I start cutting and making that shit burn!”
“Let me out,” I said to Monty as I struggled to catch my breath. My eyes were now burning.
When I got to the door, I started to run, but he would shoot me for sure. So, finally, I knocked. I started to speak, but I couldn’t. When PJ called my name, I started to cry because I knew Bishop wouldn’t miss the chance to kill him this time.
“Shut the door!” I heard someone yell, but Bishop and his boys had already grabbed me and kicked the door in.
“I thought you’d be happy to see me,” Bishop said to one girl as she tried to run.
Chapter Fifty
Neiman
“That’s the house right there,” Dee Boy said as he pointed at a corner house.
“Park in the alley,” Glory instructed Lu Lu. Everyone started to check their guns and make sure it was all good. When we got to the back, they wasted no time.
“I got it,” Kipp said as he kicked in the back door. Divine, Glory, Lu Lu and Dee Boy immediately ran inside with their weapons pointed. “Go inside,” Kipp said to me when he saw that I had froze up.
“Okay,” I said as I walked inside, in shock. I was scared as fuck, expecting to hear gun shots in a minute.
“Man, ain’t nobody fucking here!” Glory yelled at Dee Boy.
“I checked the back. Nothing,” Divine said with a disappointed look on her face.
“Man, I swear them niggas was just here,” Dee Boy said.
“Man, let’s go,” Kipp said.
“Hold up,” Divine said.
Divine shot Dee Boy three times in the head. His body dropped hard. “This nigga set us up,” she said, handing Glory a small piece of paper before she put her hands on her hips and took a deep breath.
“I never liked that nigga no way,” Lu Lu said.
“Me neither,” Glory and Kipp said in unison.
“They at the trap,” Glory said, then we all ran back out to the van.
“Dry ass trip,” Kipp said with an attitude. “Thought I was ’bout to body me a nigga.”
“You will,” Glory assured him.
Chapter Fifty-One
Malina
“Where the bricks at, Milo?” Bishop asked as he mashed her in the face with the butt of the gun again. I cringed as blood shot from her mouth.
“I don’t fucking know, Bishop!” she yelled.
“Pinky?” he asked, looking over at the girl with the pink hair.
“We literally just got here not long ago. I don’t know,” Pinky said.
He had all of us on our knees, preparing to kill us execution style. He even had PJ on the floor. Poor PJ was smiling, thinking we were playing. He had no idea that he was about to die.
“Fuck it, I’ll look in the back,” Noodle said.
After a few moments, he came back with the bag that Chola always sent us back with, so I know he had the bricks in there. I could tell by the stupid ass grin he had on his face.
Bishop was about to speak, but his phone began to ring. He smiled and put it on speaker. The look he gave me let me know that he wanted me to hear what was about to be said.
“I’m a few minutes away,” the voice said on the other end of the line.
“Hurry up, my nigga. It’s time to get this party poppin’,” Bishop said.
“That’s what I wanted to talked to you about,” the voice said.
“What?” Bishop asked with a genuine confused look on his face.
“There’s going to be a party. But you won’t have the pleasure to be a part of it,” the voice said. Jenson, Monty and Noodle moved directly behind Bishop.
“Nigga, stop playing with me.”
The person laughed. “It’s not a game, Bishop. You’re out. You fouled out long ago. We don’t need you anymore.”
“What?” Bishop was now looking out the window.
“He’s here,” Jenson said.
“What’s going on?” Bishop asked his m
en.
“Goodbye, Bishop,” the voice said before disconnecting the line.
“It’s on,” Jenson said as he lifted his gun and shot Bishop in the middle of the head.
“Yo, what the fuck?” Noodle asked.
“You too,” Monty said before shooting Noodle two times in the head.
PJ was now crying. And so was Pinky. I was numb to everything by now. All I could think about was that voice. I’d heard it before, but I couldn’t remember when or where. But it felt like a voice I’d heard long ago.
The ringing of Jenson’s phone disrupted my thoughts.
“It’s done,” Jenson said. He then talked for a few seconds and hung up in a hurry and started grabbing the bags of bricks.
“What he say?” Monty asked.
“Glory and ’em pulling back up, gotta leave out the back. Hurry up!”
“What about them? Wasn’t we supposed to kill them?” Monty asked with a look of frustration.
“Come on, nigga! We ain’t got time!” They grabbed Bishop’s phone and ran out the back door. The second the back door closed, Glory, Divine, Lu Lu and Kipp were bursting through the front door.
“They went out the back,” Pinky said. Glory, Lu Lu and Kipp hurried and ran out the back door with guns in hand.
“Thank you, Lord!” Divine yelled, running over to me and hugging me so tight.
“I thought I would never see you again,” I cried.
I opened my eyes and caught a glimpse from Neiman who was visibly unbothered by my presence. Her arms were folded and all.
“I love you so much,” Divine said.
“I love you too. I’m so sorry.”
“Shhh, it’s okay. Don’t worry,” she said.
“We lost them niggas! Fuck!” I heard Glory yell as he pushed through the back door with Lu Lu and Kipp behind him.
“Is this Bishop and Noodle?” Kipp asked with a look of confusion, causing Glory and Lu Lu to take a deeper look into the dead eyes of the two.
“Yo, what the fu…” Lu Lu couldn’t even finish his sentence.
“Bishop and Noodle were being set up too…” I began to explain everything that went down right before they came.
