She Fell For A Boss(10)

He chuckled to himself as he got out of his whip and walked up the steps to his mother’s building. He decided to chill for a minute before going inside because he wasn't ready to have that have you figured out your life conversation with his mother. It was a daily thing, and he knew it was all from love, but the shit irked him. Talking about it wasn't going to change shit. He just had to make some moves which involved some illegal shit, and he couldn't tell Ginette that. Once he got his money right, he would be out. For now, he just had to do whatever necessary.

Miego leaned back on the concrete stairs, looking up and down the block, not really paying attention to anything in particular. He was aware of his surroundings out of habit, and he still had a few enemies out there. Miego didn't always do shit the right way, so there were a few people who wouldn't mind taking him out. Most of them were too scary and weak to try it, but there was always the possibility.

Not long after he was situated, his phone started ringing. He almost ignored it, but he knew Kia was persistent as hell. If he didn't answer her call and shut her down, she would keep calling.

“What?”

“So you call yourself mad?” Kia snapped, which made him chuckle.

He had been sending her calls to voicemail since he left her spot, which he knew as pissing her off. She’d always had access to him, so she wasn't used to him putting her off.

“The fuck I need to be mad for, Kia? You ain't my damn girl, so your opinions don't matter to me.

“Oh, so, I’m not your girl?”

“Hell no. My girl wouldn't be offering up head for weed. The fuck you think this is?”

“Who told you that? I know Train’s lying ass didn't—”

“Yo, before you even fix your mouth to say some ignorant shit, just cancel that. That’s my peoples and he ain't got no reason to lie to me, Kia, but your ass does.”

Miego looked up while he waited for Kia to respond and a smirk spread across his face as he noticed shorty from his brother’s game heading his way. She had a little girl on her hip who was damn near half her size because she was so damn short. She was laughing and talking to the little girl, so she hadn't paid him any mind until Miego whistled to get her attention. Of course, she rolled her eyes and frowned at him.

“Train is lying, and it's fucked up that you’ll take his word over mine after all this time.” Kia's voice irritated him, and he wasn't about to go back and forth with her, so he decided to end the call.

“I don't have time for this bullshit, Kia, but I need to holla at somebody real quick, so I’ll hit you back.”

Yami was now right in front of him, about to pass by. Miego stood and jogged down the stairs then stepped in front of her.

“You just gon’ ignore me like that, damn?” Miego said with a grin. He held his phone at his side with Kia still on it.

“Am I walking on four legs?”

Miego looked at Yami in confusion. “Nah.”

“Then why the hell are you whistling at me like I’m a dog or something?”

Miego rubbed his chin and bit his bottom lip to hide the smirk that was trying to surface. The fact that she was trying to check his behavior had him smiling inside.

“My bad, shorty, no disrespect, I promise. I just wanted to get your attention.”

“Next time, try saying hello, or excuse me.” She rolled her eyes again and tried to step around him, but with every move she made, Miego matched it.

“Umm, will you please move? I have somewhere to be, and you’re being rude to...” Yami tilted her head to read the name of the caller on Miego's phone. “…rude to Nakia.”

Miego couldn't help but smile as he lifted his phone to his face. “Kia, I have to go. My future wife said that I was being rude to you.”

Kia yelled something, but Miego ignored her and ended the call.

“Is that better?” Miego asked.

Now it was Yami’s turn to laugh. “You might want to call her back because if you’re tripping with her, thinking that you might have something with me, then you just messed up a good thing for no reason. I’m not your future anything.”

“Who said it was a good thing?” Miego asked.

“Honestly, I don't know what it was and I don't care. Just don't end it because you think you have a chance with me. I’m not looking for anything with anybody.”

“So, you don't have a man then?”

“That's really none of your business, is it?” She looked up at Miego with her eyes narrowed.

“If you have a man, just say so, and I’ll let you go. It's that simple.”

Miego lied, he didn't care who her man was or if she even had one. It was temporary in his mind because he was feeling her.
