Unbreakable 4

by Tynessa

  “Hello, Shan,” I heard Debbie say, bringing me out my thoughts. I forgot I was even on the phone with her ass.

  “Yeah, I’m still here,” I finally said.

  “Are you going to call Cornell and them or do I need—”

  “I’m not calling nobody!” I cut her off. “I’m not going on a scavenger hunt for his ass. Fuck him! His ass better stay where the fuck he’s at, too. The least he could’ve done was called his fucking wife to let a bitch know he wasn’t coming home,” I roared in anger. I didn’t even know I was crying until my vision became blurry.

  “Well I will call. I’ll call you back to let you know what—”

  “Nah, you don’t even have to call me back. I’m good on that,” I said, cutting her off once again.

  “Shan, don’t do that.”

  “No, Debbie. I’m sick of your son’s bullshit. You would think after all these years the nigga would have grown the fuck up. If I would have known he was going to marry my ass just to fuck over me then trust and believe I would have left his ass at that damn altar,” I fussed. I wasn’t mad at Debbie at all. It was just her son was always on some bullshit. Just when I thought I could trust him again, look at the shit he went and did.

  I heard Debbie take a deep breath then release it. “Alright, Shaniqua. I’ll call you back,” she said sadly. I didn’t know if she was mad that I was insulting her son or because she knew Ronny was on some bullshit again.

  “Yeah,” was all I said, ending the call.

  I went into the kitchen, grabbed five big black trash bags, and headed upstairs.

  “Mothafucker wanna stay out all night like his ass single and shit. If he wanna be in the streets then I’ll pack his shit to make it easy for him. Nigga got me all the way fucked up,” I fussed with every step I made.

  Once I was inside the bedroom I went straight to the dresser and raked all Ronny’s shit into one of the trash bags, from his cologne to all his change he had on there. I then headed to his walk-in closet and began pulling shit from the hangers. I was on a fucking mission. I heard my phone ringing but I wasn’t stopping for shit.

  “Ma, what you doing?” Ray’Shun asked me. I quickly wiped my tears.

  “Nothing. Go back in there and make sure your sisters are still asleep,” I said to him and he did as he was told.

  When I had all the trash bags full of Ronny’s shit I went to our bed and took a seat. Pulling out my cell phone I saw I had four missed calls from an unknown number and five from Debbie. I called Debbie back.

  “What did they say?” I asked before she could even say hello. I just had to know.

  “Ronny is locked up, Shan. He said he been trying to call you.” I could hear the attitude in Debbie’s voice.

  My heart dropped to my stomach. I felt like a total jackass at that very moment. Here I was jumping to conclusions and shit, thinking the worst, and my husband was in jail all alone. I missed his calls because I was packing his shit, ready to put him out.

  “What happened, Debbie?” I finally asked.

  “Driving under the damn influence. Willie said he tried to get him to just stay here last night. You know how hardhead his ass is.” By now I was throwing on some clothes. I had to go get my baby. I shook my head because just a few minutes ago he was every name in the book but now he was back to being my baby.

  “Well I’m about to go get him now. Do he have a bond? Nevermind, I’ll find that out when I get there,” I said, ready to end the call.

  “Willie on the way to get him now. I know you have the kids and all so I just sent him.”

  “Okay, thanks. Lord knows I didn’t want to have to take them to the jail but I would have if I had to,” I said as Niyah came running in the room with Ni-Ni right behind her.

  “Mama, where is Daddy?” Niyah asked as she climbed on the bed. I picked Ni-Ni up and she hugged my neck.

  “He’s at your grandma’s house. He’ll be here soon,” I lied to her. There was no way I was about to tell her where he really was.

  “Willie said he was going to call me when he picks him up. You already know I’m going in his shit. All his ass had to do was stay here last night. Willie said he kept telling his crazy ass to stay,” Debbie fussed. I just laughed.

  “He should have and next time he’ll know,” I said. We talked a little more before ending the call. I had to make my kids breakfast and dress them. Then I was gonna wait for my husband to get home.

  Ronny

  Walking out the police station, I spotted my OG immediately. He was sitting on the hood of my mom’s car. I smiled because I already knew he was going to get in my shit, all because he tried to talk me out of going home when I dropped him off at the crib.

  “I already know, OG,” I said. He was just shaking his head as I walked up.

  “I told your hothead ass to stay at the crib. Now look at yo’ dumb ass; about to get put out over some bullshit.” I didn’t say anything back. I already knew Shan’s crazy ass was going to be beyond pissed at me. We got in the car and he continued talking.

  “Oh you already know yo’ wife called the house raising all kinda hell,” my dad laughed.

  “I know. I tried to call her right before I called y’all but her ass didn’t answer the phone. I just thought maybe she was still asleep or some shit. She always answer her phone though. Even for numbers she doesn’t know,” I said. I tried to power my phone on. I don’t know why because I knew it was already dead. Guess I was just hoping for a miracle.

  “Nah, I doubt her ass was asleep. She probably was packing your shit,” he said laughing.

  “I’m pretty sure my mom called and told her I was locked up,”

  “You already know she did. You want to use my phone to call her?” he offered but I declined.

  “I’ll just talked to her when I get home,” I said. I told him where to take me to get my car and he did.

  Once I paid to get it out of impound, I offered my dad the money he bailed me out with and he declined. He told me I insulted him by trying to give him the money back. That wasn’t my intention at all. I just didn’t need a mothafucker saying they had to do shit for me. Sometimes people do shit just to throw it back in your face.

  “A’ight, OG, I’ll holla at you later and thanks again,” I said.

  On the way to my house I had to mentally prepare myself for Shan’s ass. I knew my mom had told her about me being in jail but my wife was a damn ticking time bomb. I never knew what to expect from her ass. I loved that shit, though. I grabbed my dick. Just the thought of her sexy ass caused my shit to stand.

  I walked in the house and it was so quiet downstairs that I knew my wife and kids had to be upstairs. Taking the steps two at a time I headed straight to my bedroom.

  “Daddy!” Ni-Ni was the first to spot me, then Niyah. I sat on the bed with them. I could only be gone for a few hours but they’d act like I’d been gone for years. That’s what I loved about my kids…well, my girls. Ray’Shun didn’t care one way or the other. I loved his li’l ass, though.

  I sent Ni-Ni and Niyah to go play. Shit, Daddy wanted to play his damn self. I had to get out the doghouse some kind of way. Walking into the bathroom I just stood there admiring Shan’s body through the glass sliding door. If you didn’t know her you would never guessed she gave birth to three kids. She looked at me with no facial expression. I couldn’t tell if she was mad or not. Nothing was said as I joined her in the shower and began kissing her passionately.

  I pulled back and stared into her light brown eyes. She smiled right before dropping to her knees. I was shocked. I was supposed to be the one trying to get out the doghouse. Maybe she wasn’t mad at a nigga after all.

  “Sssssss,” I hissed like a snake as I grabbed the back of her head. Grabbing a fistful of her wet hair, I began fucking the back of her throat. Right when I felt my nut building up I pulled her up.

  “Fuck, girl,” I said as I picked her up in my arms. I entered her with one thrust and she bit down on my shoulder as I pounded her re
peatedly.

  “Damn, I love your ass,” was all I could say as I felt her pussy muscle tighten around my dick. Her body began to shake in my arms and I knew she was cumming. I released my seeds inside her shortly after.

  After that nut a nigga was ready to go to sleep. I walked back into our bedroom and went straight to the dresser. That’s when I noticed all my shit missing. I shook my head and looked inside my drawers. I still had clothes in there so I put on a pair of boxers followed by some basketball shorts and wife beater.

  Walking around to my side of the bed I saw a few trash bags. Curiosity got the best of me so I looked inside one, then another one. Once I had looked in them all I just shook my head. I didn’t know what I was going to do with Shan’s ass. I went to Ray’Shun’s room where I found her straightening up in there. I told her about that shit. He was at that age where he could clean his own room.

  “What’s up, Ray’Shun?” I spoke to my son.

  “What’s up, Pops? I need a new pair of shoes.” My eyes went straight to his closet that was wide open. Clothes and shoes were scattered everywhere.

  “Look at all them shoes in there. What’s wrong with them?” I wanted to know. Shit, I’d just bought his little ass a pair two days ago. I guess it was my fault for spoiling him. Nothing was off limits for my family.

  “Yeah, but they be getting dirty in school and you said girls don’t like when boys wear dirty shoes,” he said. I couldn’t do shit but laugh. Shan looked at me then shook her head.

  “A’ight, we can go to the mall and when we get back you cleaning your damn closet. Look at all this shit on the floor, Ray’Shun.”

  “I know. I was just getting onto him about that,” said Shan. She told the girls to go put on their shoes then turned to face me. “We need some new shoes, too. Guys don’t like females with dirty shoes either,” Shan’s petty ass said sarcastically.

  We went back to our room to get dressed. As soon as we step foot in there I asked, “So you was just gonna give up on me like that, Shan?” Her ass knew exactly what I was talking about because her eyes went straight to the bags. Then she bit her bottom lip to keep from laughing.

  “Man, that shit ain’t funny, Shaniqua,” I said.

  “I mean, I thought the old Ronny had come back out. Yo’ ass would’ve been nutting up too if it was the other way around. I mean, you could’ve called me or something,” she said.

  “My damn phone was dead,” I replied.

  “Well I didn’t know that. I’m so sorry and I shouldn’t have jumped to conclusions but you have to understand, Ronny. I mean, look at all the times we’ve been down that same road.”

  “I do understand, Shan, but if you was gonna hold that shit over my head then you shouldn’t have married me. When I said those vows I meant every word. We’re in this shit forever and I wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize our marriage,” I said truthfully. Shit, I even kicked it with Strawberry before we left the club and fucking her never crossed my mind once.

  Chapter 9

  3 months later

  Star

  Theodore and I had been kicking it strong for the past three months. A month ago I let him meet CJ. I was kind of skeptical about that. Other than Cornell, the only men my son ever was around were family. I didn’t know what to expect but surprisingly, he fell in love with Theodore. Cornell hadn’t met him yet and the only thing he asked is that I didn’t leave Theodore around CJ without supervision. I wasn’t that stupid. I would never do no shit like that.

  “So are you nervous?” I asked Theodore as we pulled up to Shan and Ronny’s crib. It was thanksgiving and the whole family was there. It would be their first time meeting him.

  “Nah, I’m good,” he smiled. Shit, I was. I mean, everybody loved Cornell so I was pretty sure they would give him a hard time. Especially my mom because she didn’t like anyone.

  We got out the car and walked up to the house. CJ was in between the two of us but he was holding Theodore’s hand.

  “This a big ass house. Shit’s nice as hell,” he complimented their house. I give credit when credit is due and it was a bad ass house.

  “Yes, it is. You should see the inside,” I said. My sister had excellent taste.

  “Hey Star-Boo,” Shan said when she opened the door. She hugged me then looked Theodore up and down before smiling. “And you must be Theodore. It’s so nice to finally meet you,” she said, hugging him. She winked at me and gave me two thumbs up. I couldn’t help but blush. I knew my boo was the shit.

  I mean, don’t get me wrong, Cornell looked good as fuck, hands down, but Theodore definitely gave him a run for his money. Shan moved aside to let us in and it was like all eyes were on us.

  “Y’all, this is Star’s new boo, Theodore. This is my husband, Ronny,” Shan introduced him to everyone. When she got to Cornell she paused. “And this Nell,” she simply said.

  I was pretty sure he knew it was my baby daddy being that CJ ran right to him screaming Daddy. Cornell just hit him with a head nod and said “Sup.” I saw a woman standing next to him. We made eye contact but neither one of us said anything.

  “Oh yeah, Star, this is Tykise. Tykise, this is my baby mama, Star,” Cornell introduced us. I smiled.

  “Hello. Nice to meet you,” I said.

  “Nice to meet you, too,” she said a little dryly. When Kandice finally noticed me she ran to me. I kissed her cheeks then spoke to my nieces and nephew.

  After dinner, Ronny took Theodore out back with him and the guys. I was glad that he wasn’t being shady towards him because of Cornell. His girl, friend, or whatever she might have been to him stayed inside with us.

  “Girl, Theodore is cute,” Shan said to me then looked over her shoulders for Ronny. We all laughed.

  “Yeah, he is sexy, though. Where you meet him at?” Brooke asked me.

  “I met him at a gas station. He’s very sweet, too,” I said. I was blushing so hard my cheeks were starting to burn.

  “Yeah, he seems like a good guy,” said Shan.

  “And I’m guessing he makes you happy, too. All that damn cheesing yo’ ass doing over there,” said Brooke. Everybody burst out laughing, including Tykise. She seemed like a bitch at first but she was slowly coming around.

  “So Tykise, how long have you and Nell been together?” Brooke asked.

  “Well we haven’t made it official yet but he and I have been talking for about two months now,” she answered.

  “Oh, okay. So what is your intention with him? Nell is very special to me. He’s like my little brother. His heart has been broken too many times and he needs a good woman,” said Shan.

  “He deserves a good woman!” Brooke cosigned. I felt like shit as they were talking. It broke my heart just knowing I was the cause of his heart being broken.

  “Well I like Nell and if he decides to take it there with me then I would be more than happy. Neither one of us is trying to jump right into a relationship. We’re taking it slow, you know, just getting to know one another right now. I can see that he’s a good man; that’s why when he’s ready or decides he wants to settle down with me I will be the best woman I can to him.”

  We all just sat there staring at Tykise, smiling. I think we all were pleased with her answer. If anyone deserved happiness, it was definitely Cornell.

  “That was sweet, Tykise. I just hope you live up to your words, doll,” Shan said to her.

  We all sat around talking and laughing until it was time to go. I truly enjoyed myself and was happy the family finally met Theodore. They even liked him and I was beyond ecstatic about that.

  Bino

  I’d just walked into the house, but I could hear Brooke upstairs arguing on the phone. I walked up there and stood on the side of the wall, eavesdropping. I just had to see who the fuck had her that upset.

  “Well mothafucker do what you gotta do. I don’t give a fuck!” I heard Brooke say. I didn’t know what the person on the other end said.

  “You got me fucked up! If you want to se
e them then you can easily come down here. I’m not about to fly my kids up there unsupervised just ‘cause you want me to.” That let me know it was her bitch ass ex-husband. “Hell fuckin’ no! You know I can’t come up there, Bo. Bino is not going for that. Plus, why would I fly them out there when you can easily come down here?” she said.

  “You don’t love me, Bo. If you did you wouldn’t have did the shit you did to fuck up our marriage,” she said calmly. I heard her giggle then say, “I’m about to hang up because I don’t wanna hear that bullshit you spitting…. A’ight, bye.”

  I wasn’t upset that she was talking to him because I knew she had to have some type of dealings with him. I mean, he was the father of her kids. But it sounded like that fuck nigga was trying to get his claws back in her ass. I knew one thing, if that nigga came down here on that bullshit I was fucking his ass up. I took it easy on him at her folks’ house but his ass was getting the business next time. I walked in the room, startling her.

  “Hey, baby. When you get here?” she asked me, nervously.

  “Long enough to hear you giggling and shit with that nigga,” I said.

  “Bino, it’s not like that. He wants me to fly the kids out for Christmas. I don’t want to do that. They’re too young to fly alone,” she said defensively.

  “So what, he coming out here? I asked.

  “I really don’t know. I’m not flying them out there by themselves, though. I know that much.” I just nodded my head up and down.

  I undressed and laid down on the bed with my son. Shan’s mother had the other kids so the house was quiet. I just wanted to get a little rest. Brooke climbed on the bed with me and Brandon. I wasted no time pulling her into my arms. Bo’s ass had another think coming if he thought I wasn’t going to put up a fight for mines. If he thought for one second it would be an easy task to take what’s mine, his ass had another think coming. The sound of my phone ringing brought me out of my thoughts.

  “Yo?” I answered.
