Instead of going home or to the shop as soon as I was finished I decided to pop up on my brother who had been in his own world lately. I hated when he got like that, but I couldn’t blame him because I had been the same. It was something about the pace of life that had no way of driving you in a different direction than that of what you planned.

I stared at the clock in front of me with precision waiting impatiently for that little hand to finally rest on the twelve. I had a long ass day ahead of me today, but the moment Surah called asking me to stop at Walgreens on the way home this morning everything dispersed. Nothing mattered but what she asked me to pick up. Nothing mattered but her. Even though she was getting on my fucking nerves being indecisive and shit the only thing that mattered to me at this moment was her and the possibility of her carrying my seed. I was working off about an hour and a half of sleep because I fell asleep for a few hours at the warehouse after my distribution meeting. Other than that, when she called me earlier I was on my way home to get a few hours before I met up with Kasey earlier. Teddy had me about to fie on his ass because he was acting like it was fucking hard to find one person. He did this shit all the time for me, so the fact that he was acting incapable now was irritating as fuck.
“The fuck you looking slow for?” I looked away from the clock for less than a millisecond at Surah.
“Because this is a lot, asshole.” She was nervous and I sensed that. Shit, I was too. Out of all the bitches I ran through over theyears I’ve never found myself in this space right here. Never had a female tell me she was possibly carrying my kid. Then again I’ve never gone raw with a female both physically and mentally. I never loved a broad, but Surah was different. I was in love with this broad, so no matter the situation everything about us was raw.
“How? Didn’t you say you wanted that infant scare sex? Here it is.”
“But…” her sentence trailed off when her phone rang alerting her and I that the timer that she set was over.
“Stop asking for shit that you want.”
“Fuck you, Namari.” She stood from the island and walked toward the washroom.
“You did and that’s how we got here. Shit I should’ve bought a few extra of those, because on my mama we’re gonna find ourselves watching time a lot if yeen pregnant now.” I expected her to give me some snarky ass response, but she didn’t. She was quiet which prompted me to finally get up and go to her.
When I turned the corner into the washroom she was just standing there looking at the tests on the counter. “What do they say?”
“I’m not pregnant.”
“Okay that’s a good thing, right? Why are you standing over there looking depressed and shit?” Now she had me confused. First she was mad that she might’ve been. Now she was mad that she wasn’t. I swear women had a way of sending a nigga to the nut house.
“I don’t know I jus?—”
“You wanna make a baby, Surah? We can make one right fucking here.” I was willing to do and or say whatever to get that sad ass expression off her face. I hated to see anything on her face other than that big toothy ass smile.
“No, I just thought I was and kind of felt it.”
“Do you want a baby right now?” I wasn’t trying to hear anything of what had her frowning. I wanted to rectify the situation because I didn’t need any more problems.
She turned around and looked at me for a moment, before shaking her head no. “We have our whole lives for that. Right now things are hectic and you’re in the streets more than I’d like. When we settle down, yes we can have a baby.”
I chuckled. See this was that shit. “Exactly, so when the time comes don’t get all depressed when I give you triplets in one whop.”
“Boy.”
“What? I’m shooting for the moon, fuck the stars.” I turned and left the washroom headed for my bedroom. Now that shit was over I needed to be getting that sleep before Kasey found his way to my line.
“Where are you going?” I heard her following me. That was a dumb ass question considering the fact that I was walking toward the bedroom.
“To sleep, now don’t come on here fucking with me unless you plan on using your soup coolers to help me get to a cloud.”By the time I reached the bedroom she was laughing in tow knowing damn well I was serious. Apparently she knew that too, because I was seconds into my sleep when I felt her small hands gripping the hem of my sweats. I didn’t bother opening my eyes to look at her, because I just knew she was finna get me right.
I mugged Teddy as he tapped away at his computer trying to get me the information that I’ve needed for the last two weeks now. It that two weeks it has taken everting in me not to hit that niggaRequ’s hangout with the hottest of shit. The thing is I was trying to stay patient like I asked Knoxx to be. I needed to cut the head off the whole fucking snake and leave no residue.
“Nigga loosen ya’ jaws. You know he’s good at what he does.” Kasey interrupted my thoughts.
I chuckled. “Nigga why are you all in my fucking face? Why don’t you pay attention to the fact that your fucking phone won’t stop ringing.”
“That’s because the hos love me and it’s almost tax season.”
“Tax seaso— never mind. I’ma let you keep that to yourself.”
He chuckled. “Lemme ask you something?”
I nodded my head for him to continue.
