twitch. I hadn’t had sex in over a year so I was more than due for some extracurricular activities. Shit, as much time as Chris and I spent together, my pussy hadn’t even gone this crazy around him. There was definitely something special about Mr. Gold Chain but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to find out what it was.
“Bitch, who is them niggas that just walked out here. They look like some work!” Lexis said loudly in my ear, failing at her attempt to whisper.
I shrugged my shoulders. “Man, I don’t even know but they are most definitely them niggas whoever they are,” I said as I stood up so that I could go lay the kids down. “Lex, can you go grab Antonio and Jahlisa so I can lay all of them down for a nap?”
I was ready to mingle and the kids would be cranky as hell if I didn’t put them down now. I walked across the backyard and locked eyes with Mr. Gold Chain as I passed and walked through the glass sliding door. “Damn, that nigga was hella sexy,” I thought to myself. China was in the kitchen filling up a couple of coolers with sodas, beers and wine coolers.
“I’m about to lay the kids down for naps and when I come back, let’s turn this shit up,” I said as I walked to the kids’ room that was downstairs. After putting all three babies down, I put on a movie and turned the volume down low then closed the door slightly. The kids would be sleep for at least two hours.
Lexis and I headed back in the kitchen and helped China restock the coolers. There were about thirty people in the backyard so the party was definitely cranking up. I looked at my phone and I didn’t have any new notifications besides a few Facebook and Instagram likes. I guess Chris changed his mind about coming through. I wasn’t too much worried though because I wasn’t really feeling like having him all up under me, especially with Mr. Gold Chains here now. I planned on having a conversation with him before the night ended.
I grabbed a wine cooler and about three Jell-O shots and took a seat in one of the lawn chairs as China and Lexis took a seat beside me. “So what’s going on with Big Ken and Shae and them?” China asked as she took a sip from the wine cooler she was sipping on.
“Man, I don’t know it’s not looking too good, though. Him, Tommy and Shae were all indicted but Quita just up and disappeared. Nobody knows where she is,” I said, taking a Jell-O shot before I continued.
The last week of June, the Feds kicked in the doors of my uncle’s house and also the doors to the club and had taken him, my Auntie Shae, my cousin Tommy and a few of the girls in the club in custody. Apparently, there was a prostitution ring operating out of the club. An undercover agent was placed in the club and everything was proven through the word of the agent as well as a confidential witness. Now they were sitting in jail looking at anywhere from 10-15 years for human trafficking and a few other charges in regards to prostitution. My uncle was actually looking at 25 or more as the known operator of the ring and also because this wasn’t his first stint in jail.
Any drugs or money had been moved to other locations when we’d first found out that there was an investigation underway and the blocks that my uncle had were still running and were not on the Fed’s scope. On top of school and the baby, I now had the task of checking the blocks every week to make sure that the money was right and keeping tabs on the east and west side crews. I never wanted to be back in the game. I liked going to school and being a mother to my child and I didn’t want anything to threaten my life or freedom. I was between a rock and a hard place because on the flip side, I felt that I owed my uncle my loyalty because he was always there when I needed him and I needed to be there for him while he needed me. There was talk that Quita had probably cut a deal with the Feds so I knew that somebody had to be on top of his street affairs because she
