âIâm about to pull out you need a ride somewhere?â I was trying hard not to be rude but if he wanted to sit and talk about his mom I wasnât in the mood.
âIâm going to see her next Wednesdayâ I froze what the hell was he trying to pull?
âOk thatâs coolâ
âI told her your coming tooâ I flipped, this little nigga came to test me.
âAmir, get the fuck out right now. Iâm not going nowhere and Iâm not sending her shit. Get your dumb ass out of my houseâ He wasnât budging which meant he was set on getting his ass beat. He stood up from the couch and reached into his back pocket pulling out three envelopes and dropped them on the coffee table.
âIâm praying for you Rah, Iâm praying God will soften your heartâ He was laying it on thick but I didnât feel like feeling guilty.
âDonât waste your time but pray that God will keep me off your ass, now get the hell outâ I wanted to throw those letters out with him but I swear I wanted to know what they said more.
Right then I hated Amir for coming here and for telling her that I was coming to see her.
I forced myself to walk into the bathroom to take a quick shower. Just like clockwork my phone started ringing and if I didnât answer on the first try she would be acting crazy.
âBaby?â I could hear her talking but my mind was still on Amir and those letters.
âYeah, who dis?â
âYou donât know me now?â She sounded like she wanted to play but I wasnât in the mood.
âLook donât call here with the fucking games, who the fuck is this?â See this is where my old man went wrong and it cost him his life. He needed to know when to be smooth and when to put a broad in check.
âSheila, whatâs your problem?â She sounded more hurt than angry.
âAww baby Iâm sorry. My brother just gave me bad news you forgive me?â I tried to sound as sincere as I could and it worked.
âI forgive you, you ready to see me?â She sounded excited so I knew something good was coming.
âIâm always ready to see youâ
âGood meet me at my house in about an hourâ she hung up before I could respond but Iâm on it. In the shower I tried to wash away my brotherâs words but I couldnât, I couldnât stop thinking about the letters on my coffee table. Why did he choose today to drop some ole crazy shit on me? I quickly threw on my clothes before grabbing the letters and stuffing them in my back pocket. I convinced myself that they really didnât matter.
******************
Five hours and a new pair of Sean John sunglasses, fresh pair of white Jordanâs and my new Michael Jordan throwback jersey later I felt like a million bucks. Sheila held out on her gift giving until after she laid it on me, black stilettos and all. I kissed her on the forehead before promising to call later tonight. I liked Sheila but she reminded me of a puppy always looking for approval and as jacked up as I am I couldnât see myself completely ruining her life too. The bulge of the letters forced me to remember what I really didnât care to that my egg donor was trying to reach out. I drove around looking for a place to park until I found a quiet spot at Fairmount Park. It was nothing but a grassy area. There were no benches or picnic tables so I sat in my car and pulled out the first envelope. It had my name on it but Amirâs address.
Dear Raheim,
I know this letter is about 15 years to late but Iâm sorry.
Sorry that I was caught up in my world, that I wasnât
strong enough for you and your brother. Iâm not gonna
ask you to forgive me, not even forget but just hear my side.
As much as I wanted to be pissed, to feed her trifling ass letters to the birds I kept reading. She went on to explain how my pops promised to take care of us. That he said he was coming to take me and Amir shopping and when he didnât show up she was so pissed that he kept promising us shit that when she saw my face and couldnât stop seeing his she was scared she might hurt me. That was the day she kicked me out. She wanted me back but Aunt Sadie wasnât tryna hear that shit and the night she shot him was right after he promised to take me to church.
When she called my auntâs house and my aunt Sadie said he never came home that was the last straw. She took her fatherâs shotgun out of his gun case and went looking for him. When she saw his silver Volvo parked in front of her rivalâs house the same Volvo that she co-signed for she shot the door down. They had the music so loud they didnât hear it. When she kicked the bedroom door in all she could see was the Italian broad riding him into the sunset. She said that didnât make her pull the trigger. It was after my pops spotted her and started laughing like he knew she was a punk. That set her off before she knew it her finger pressed the trigger and the impact blasted his chest wide open. The Italian broad was all out of laughs by then. She started scrambling to get away. My mom didnât want to kill her just make her pay so she blew both her legs off leaving her in a wheelchair for life. I didnât want to cry but the tears slid down my face involuntarily. I never thought to look at things through my momâs eyes. My father was an ass but it still didnât change what happened there was plenty of single momâs in the world that didnât kill their baby daddies but then again there were a lot that had. I decided I had enough emotion for the day so I put the letters away and sat for a while. I would never understand that kind of love that would make a man and woman go that crazy. I knew one thing was for sure I would never be like either of them. I was satisfied being in love with myself.
My phone started to ring. The number on the caller ID said it was my old Tuesday Kelly. I didnât come to see her yesterday or for the last few weeks before that and sheâs been blowing my phone up ever since. I answered on the fourth ring.
âYeah?â
âRaheim?â She sounded shocked that I answered.
âYessss, whoâs this?â I knew that would piss her off.
âItâs Kelly why you didnât come over yesterday?â She was suppressing her irritation.
âBecause I was busy, why you miss me?
âYou know I doâ her voice softened a bit.
âOh ok why you calling me anyway? You told me not to come back remember?â
âRaheim stop playingâ
âThatâs just it baby girl. Iâm not playing. You have too many damn mood swings and I donât have time for that shit. Why you not at work anyway?â
âBecause I wanted to make up from last weekâ
âSo you call out of work?â That alone was enough for a cut. I didnât roll with slackers you were either up on your game or you werenât. That reminded me of todayâs engagement in Atlantic City. I had two of the finest chicâs working on my business.
âKelly Iâm gonna put it to you like this. I liked you, a lot but I donât think I can provide you with what youâre looking forâ
âDonât try to feed me with the bullshit Raheim. You probably fuckin somebody right now. One of these days your damn dick gonna fall off.â I couldnât help but laugh. I swear the redbones are the craziest.
âTime is money so laterâ
âWaitâ she screamed before I could flip my phone shut.
âI donât care what you say youâre mine. I love you boo and Iâm sorry for acting a little off but I have a lot of shit going on right now. Stuff you donât even know about. Let me prove it to you just come over and Iâll do it to you better than anybody else. You know you want itâ
âIâm gonna pass. Take care of yourself Kellyâ I flipped my phone shut Iâm convinced that her ass is bipolar. I would need to run home for a quick shower and change of clothes. I had to meet up with Alexis and Maya at the Trump Taj Mahal by 10pm. These broads were the best in the business. I met Maya first about two years ago when I was on one of my regular trips to AC. It was cold as hell and I was donning my waist length black and white Chinchilla jacket, True Religion jeans and my new black leather timberlands. I had just come in and sat at the bar when I was approached by Maya a tall, curly head slender honey. She wasnât my initial type but she had on a slinky black dress with 4 inch heels so I made an exception. She stroked my jacket a few times and I knew she was gaming when she started whispering that sexy shit in my ear. I stood up and walked away, I never let any broad think I was pressed save that for the tricks or the bum dudes. Like I expected she was walking behind me.
âOh, Iâm sorry that wasnât an invitation.â I left her standing there speechless. She spotted me again at the high roller machines and outright asked.
âAre you gay?â It was hard not to laugh. It was so easy to knock a woman off her square.
âNo, Iâm just not into prostitutesâ âI knew my words would sting and I intended for them to. After several minutes of silence she started to cry not actual boo hooing but a few tears.
âYouâre an assholeâ
âActually Iâm not, what I said was true Iâm not into prostitutes and I know a woman as fine as you donât need to be hustling these streets.â
âWho are you Jesusâ side kick?â She snapped back with a donât judge me stare.
âNo far from it. All Iâm saying is that while youâre out here taking the streets money is being lost.â
âI donât want a pimp. The only person getting paid from my pussy is meâ I didnât want to tell her that what she was getting was far less than what was taken from her.
âFair enough but Iâm not a pimp just a dude who gone take you upscale.â That was the beginning of a beautiful working relationship. I turned her on to my corporate connects who was willing to pay $5,000 a week to see her pretty ass. These dudes werenât bum dudes either Iâm talking suckas who made six figure incomes and rode around in Ferrariâs and Rolls Royceâs. Took vacations
