She Fell For A Boss(19)

Train looked pissed just thinking about it, which made Miego laugh.

“You’re together, but you fucking everything moving, and she can't even look at another muthafucker without you trying to jack her ass up.”

“You damn straight. She knew what it was the second she had my son.”

“Your ass needs some damn help, bruh.”

“Nah, nigga. Your ass needs some damn help for starting this shit you ’bout to be stuck in the middle of.”

“Shorty said they’re not together, so it’s all good. That nigga don't own her just because they got a kid, bruh. You know me. It is what it is. He wanna come for me, let him. He just better come correct.”

“I swear your ass ain't been home but a hot ass minute, and you already got me stuck in the middle of some bullshit,” Train said and laughed.

“I ain't asking you for shit.”

“But you know your battles are my battles. Fuck, that shit don’t change, so if you got beef with Black, then I got beef with Black.”

“You know I appreciate that, but I’m also not gon’ ask you to put this shit on you.”

“The fuck, Miego? You ain't gotta ask. I know you heard what the fuck I just said.”

Train held his hand up and Miego met it with his. That was that, whatever happened from here, they were in it together.

“Now start the damn game so I can whoop your ass. I know you think you been running shit since I been gone,” Miego said with a smirk.

“Man, fuck you. It ain't nothing.”

Train started the game again and the two friends settled in, talking trash and just chillin’. Whatever problems were coming would be dealt with, but for now, they were just in the moment.





Chapter Four


“Mommy, I see Daddy!” Rayah yelled from the back seat as she pointed out the window at Black, who was leaning against his truck with a few of his crew.

Yami wished that she could be just as excited as her daughter, but she knew it was about to be some bullshit. It was crazy to her how she was so tough with everyone except Black. Being small all her life had given her a feisty firecracker attitude. She had fought guys and girls damn near three times her size without an ounce of fear in her heart and had come out on the winning side, but with Black, it was different. He broke her down in ways that she didn’t even understand.

“You want me to stay?” Yaz looked at her sister for a brief second before she looked over at Black. He winked at Yaz and she rolled her eyes.

“Nah, I’m good. We’re good right now, and he just wants to see Ray. I’ll call you later when I get back to Mommy’s house.”

Yaz looked at her sister for a second before she nodded. She knew that Yami and Black weren't always fighting, especially when Ray was around, but she also knew that Black was a little bipolar. It didn't take much to set him off.

“I’ight, if that nigga starts tripping, call me, and I’ll come get you.”

Yami laughed at her sister because she knew she was serious. She would fight Black if she had to, and Yami loved her for that.

“Girl, bye.” Yami laughed and got out.

She grabbed her book bag and purse before she opened the door of the back seat to get Rayah out. She held Rayah’s hand as she waved at her sister, who watched the two of them walk over to Black before she pulled away from the curb.

“Daddy, do you have a surprise for me?” Rayah asked, snatching away from Yami and running up to him.

She held her arms up, and like always, he lifted her from the ground and held her against his chest before kissing both of her cheeks. A smile spread across his face as he looked at her.

“Why you always asking me for stuff, shorty?” Black teased his daughter.

“Because that's what I’m supposed to do.” Rayah’s smile matched her father's. In her eyes, her father did no wrong and she loved him with all her heart as a daughter should.

Yami stood watching the two of them and waiting. She didn't speak to or look at any of Black’s crew because she didn't want to give him a reason to flip out on her.

“Yo, we’ll catch up with you in a minute. We’ll let you do the family thing,” Tech said before he lifted his arm and leaned toward Black.

Black did the same and their forearms created a cross in the air as they connected. Lo did the same before Black spoke to them.

“I’ight, just give me a minute and I’ll come check you out.”

“What up, Yami?” Tech looked at her with a grin, but she didn't speak, which made him laugh. He was just fucking with her because he knew she wouldn't speak.

Tech and Lo walked off and Black continued talking to his daughter about nothing important while he walked toward his apartment. He had yet to acknowledge Yami, which had her feeling tense. She knew that he was pissed about something, so she prepared herself for the bullshit. Her only saving grace was that Ray was with her, so she knew he wouldn’t overreact. He never did while Ray was around.
