Maybe I’m the Problem

“Ouch!”

“My bad. Now what was you saying about Law?”

“Girl, I was trying to figure out what was up with y’all. My brother dates Pinkie’s cousin that do hair and he saw them together in her car.”

“Girl, I doubt that it was Law.”

“I’m sure my brother knows what Law looks like. I thought you and Trey was kicking it again?”

She was really fucking trying me at this point. My head was starting to hurt and I still had another hour left with her. While I had her, I was going to get her for information.

“So Pinkie was seen with my nigga.”

“Pretty much, but then I was like, nah because Summer don’t play and Law don’t disrespect her like that.”

“Girl, Law ass ain’t crazy. He probably was handling business. I’m not worried.”

“I wouldn’t be worried either. I mean Pinkie is one of the dopest bitches in the city and all the young girls look up to her. She can have any man she wants; I know damn well she wouldn’t be a side bitch.”

I didn’t say anything else for the remainder of her appointment. Once she was done, I let her out and locked the door. Pinkie was starting to be a problem for me. If Law was really out here riding in her car and being seen with her, he was feeling her. I picked up the phone and dialed his number.

“What’s up baby?” I could hear the sound of a bunch of niggas around him and relaxed. “What’s up?” He asked again.

“Nothing, I was just calling to tell you that I was going to your house.”

“I’ght. Do you have your key?”

“Yea.”

“Okay. Do you need anything else because I’m kinda in the middle of something?”

“Nah, that’s it.”

“Love you.”

“Love you too.” I hung up.

It was nothing for me to go over there. Law had just given me a key since we got back together. The only reason I was going over there was to snoop through his shit. I packed a bag with a few things and headed to Pooler for a few days. I didn’t plan on asking him about anything because everything would come to the light when the time was right but what I was going to do was watch his ass more closely.

21. PINKIE

When you a bad muthafucka like me, you don’t have any cares. Yea, Summer busted my shit, but guess what? Her nigga paid for it. He even put me in a rental car until it was fixed. What I got to worry about? Now, what was bothering me was Trey. I was on my way to pick his dumb ass up from jail and take him to my house. He lost everything fucking with his baby mama.

It took my daddy to talk me into getting him and taking him in. He had three months to get on his feet and get the hell out of my house. Now that he was going to be at my house, I couldn’t bring Law over knowing that Trey was fucking his girl. That was asking for a war that I wasn’t ready to deal with.

I pulled into the parking lot to Trey smiling like he had just did a ten-year bid. Dumb ass nigga had it good but let a hood thot make him slip up and get her pregnant. How he let that happen, I have no idea. Lana was fucking so much that she couldn’t keep up with the names of the niggas she was with.

“Pinkie, thank you so much for coming to get me. I owe you big time.”

“Yea, you do and the first thing you need to do is find a damn job.”

“I talked with my supervisor today and they are willing to take me back but I can’t get the pay I was getting. I got to start back over.”

“That’s a start.”

I rode the rest of the way to my house in silence. All I could think about is keeping Trey out of my business and out of my way. I haven’t had a man stay with me in a while and I was enjoying my space.

“You can take the room upstairs down the hall. It has a bathroom in the room. You’re free to anything in the kitchen.”
