“Nah, I’m the same age as you. I just don’t look old because I ain’t juggling two households, bitch ass nigga.”
Deshay snatched me away before he could say anything to me.
“Jahmir,” she said, taking my glass away from me.
“I’m not drunk.”
“This is business. You can’t speak to him like that,” Deshay fussed.
“Fuck him.” I looked over and mugged his ass.
“Oohhh, that’s her. She’s the one who had you sick.”
“Deshay, mind your business.” I left her standing there.
After the ribbon cutting, I was ready to go. They still were doing speeches, so I told Deshay to stay while I went to the car because my chest had started hurting. I had been in the car for ten minutes before a tap on the window startled me. I hit the unlock once I noticed it was Tatiyonna.
“Why didn’t you tell me you knew my husband?” She asked before her ass could hit the seat.
Her Versace Goddess hit my nose before I could respond.
“Didn’t know it was important to tell you. Y’all look happy. I didn’t want to disturb that,” I told her.
“Did you know him when you approached me?”
“Fuck no!”
“Are you fucking Deshay?”
I laughed because how the fuck was she in here questioning me like I was the married one. Her freshly waxed eyebrows were raised as she waited for an answer. Unlike her, I was truthful.
“We fuck occasionally. Nothing deep between us,” I replied.
“Wow! You knew I would be here, and you brought your fuck buddy. This is crazy.” She reached for the door, but I stopped her.
“Tatiyonna, there you go. Wanting to argue. What did you follow me to my car for? Does your nigga know where you at?” I licked my lips.
“I need to know that you didn’t do this to get back at him for his snide remarks. Since you say every time you encounter each other, he has something smart to say.”
I started letting my seat back. “Come have a seat on my face and we can talk.”
“Jah, I didn’t come in here for that.”
“What did you follow me for then? You miss this dick, because I know you don’t miss me.”
“I do...”
“You do what?”
“Did you fuck her today?” She flipped the question.
“If anyone knows me, it should be you. If I were satisfied, I wouldn’t be in here trying to please you. I don’t get down like that. Now, if you don’t give me what my body is yearning for, I’ll have to settle. And I ain’t in the mood to settle.”
“I need to get back, Jah.”
“What? You fucking that nigga again?”
“No, not exactly.”
