Chapter 10

Stacy

I didn’t know what had gotten into Kaylin, but I was tired of playing with him. I wasn’t about to be his little play toy anymore. I was ’bout to look out for me and Kaylin Jr. Fuck running behind a nigga. Sad thing was I done played the back end to Mimi for too damn long and, now that she was dead, I still found myself doing the same thing. I couldn’t compete with a dead person, and I wasn’t trying to. I was done with that shit. I was about to get it how I lived.

I couldn’t lie. I was hurt when he said that he didn’t want a family with me. It crushed my heart. Hell, why not have a family with me? I’d been the side bitch for so long, and now that the main bitch wasn’t here anymore, he still wanted me to be the side bitch? Hell, it didn’t work like that no more. I didn’t think so. I had something for his ass this time. I would not be assed out and looking sad as hell this time.

I decided to go ahead and call up Mister. Since he wanted Mimi and couldn’t get her, I decided to give him Kaylin. After all, he didn’t want me. Why not let this nigga suffer for putting me through all of that bullshit? He didn’t give a fuck about my feelings, so why should I have given a fuck about his ass? The only ones I felt sorry for were the kids, because after tomorrow they were going to be both motherless and fatherless.

The plan was for me to find out where he would be laying his head, give it about a week or two, then rob and kill him. Did I feel bad for what I was about to do? Hell no. I thought this was long overdue. I was tired of letting Kaylin think he could just play with me. Enough was enough. I was done being his dummy. I wouldn’t continue to play a fool no more.

After I got off the phone with Mister, I went to grab the kids’ bags so that we could head out. I was walking along, bringing the bags to the car, when Kaylin grabbed and kissed me. To say I was surprised would be an understatement. This dude had just said he didn’t want a family with me, and now he was kissing all on me and shit. How was I supposed to take this?

I wanted to just grab him and kiss him back, but when I started to, he had done pulled away. I stood there feeling stuck. I had done already made a deal with Mister, but now Kaylin was here, doing the most. I didn’t know if I should go on with the plan or just call the whole thing off.

I picked up the bags and put them in the car. Pulling out my phone, I stood there like a deer in headlights. I wanted to call this thing off, but I had already made the deal no more than five minutes ago. I couldn’t just close this shit.

I entered Mister’s number in the dial pad but, when I went to call him, Kaylin came walking out the door with the kids. I didn’t want him to hear my call, so I decided to wait. I’ll just tell him that we had a change of plans, I thought as Kaylin beeped the horn. I placed my phone inside my pocket, got in the car, and mentally prepared myself for whatever tomorrow may bring. I just hoped like hell that nothing would go wrong.
