Page 26 of Maybe I’m the Problem

“And what I used to do? Curve they ass. I never disrespected you once. I matured and took our relationship serious. I fucked up the first few months and got that shit together. Every time you go on a damn rampage, it’s because of your insecurities and shit. As your nigga, I made sure I told you how beautiful you are, took care of you, and made sure that, even though we argued in private, in public we were on point. You got some shit to deal with bruh.”

I came and sat back next to him and just thought about what he said. Law moved closer to me and brought me in so my head was resting on his chest.

“Look, you know me better than anyone and vice versa. We done what we done to each other but the fact still remains we got a baby on the way. We can continue to act like we don’t care about one another or we can forgive and move the hell on. What I don’t want to deal with is your insecurities because I give you no reason to feel that way.”

“Law, look at you.” I held my head up. “You fine as hell. What woman wouldn’t want you? I don’t want to battle with a bitch about you, so whatever you got going on with that girl needs to end.”

“I ain’t got nothing going on.”

I wanted to believe him but whores like Pinkie don’t just come around and not get what they want. Law had some of the best dick there was and I was going to kill him if he put his mouth on her. Just thinking about him having sex with her boiled my blood.

“So you not fucking with Pinkie anymore?” I eyed him.

“Nah.”

“Oh, ‘cause I don’t give pussy to niggas that fuck with other hoes.”

Law laughed before kissing my lips. And just that simple, I stripped out of my shit and rode my man into a coma. If he was getting some from Pinkie, she wasn’t doing it right. Law was snoring so loud that I recorded him. I had to turn the sound off to post the video. Yep, I was back, and the bitches needed to know that I was locking shit down.

I was giving Law something he always wanted. Between him and his mama, I didn’t have to worry about anything. Nobody could take what we had, even if they tried. No amount of sex could snatch Law’s heart. He wrapped his arm around me and pulled me into him like I was going to run away.

“I love you.”

“I love you too.”

“What we got ain’t perfect but we’ll get the shit right before my baby gets here.”

Just hearing that promise put me at ease. I didn’t seem to care about him and Pinkie anymore or any other woman who thought she could have him. My body relaxed, and I went to sleep in my baby arms.

19. PINKIE

Law was acting a little funny with me but it was only because his girl was back in his life. Was I worried? Hell nah! I was a different bitch and worrying about a nigga at this point of my life was dumb as hell. Fuck I look like stressing over a nigga that I could get dick from when I called?

Hitting the lock on my keys and heading into the salon my cousin worked at, I was caught off guard by someone calling my name. I looked around everywhere but didn’t see anyone so I walked inside and went straight to her chair. My hair needed washing and a new lace front laid. The door chimed, and everyone’s attention went to the door. Summer looked around before she locked eyes with me.

“Girl, here comes her dumb ass.”

“Well, I got my curlers hot for that hoe if she tries some dumb shit.”

“Chile, I’m not about to fight about no dick. Who does that?” I told her as Summer stopped right in front of my chair with her hands on her hips.

“This is a private workstation. You can wait in the sitting area,” my cousin told her.

Summer mugged the hell out of my cousin before she turned her attention back to me. Now my cousin wasn’t a fighter and neither was I really but I think we both could take Summer if we had to.

“You grilling me, so what’s the issue?” I asked her.

“The only thing I want from you is to keep your old pussy off my nigga. I’m back now, and I would hate to beat your muthafuckin’ ass.”

“Lil’ girl.” I laughed before I said something to hurt her feelings. “Are you checking me or you just saying? Either way, I don’t give a fuck.”

“I’m coming to you woman to woman.”

“Well, I don’t do woman to woman. Have you spoke to your nigga about me? Clearly, you barking up the wrong tree, and now if you can move your young ass out the way, I need to go to the shampoo bowl.”

“This is my only time I’m going to talk to you because the next time ain’t going to be good.”

“Okay, annnnd what you saying? That dick good ain’t it? I know.” I grinned at her to piss her off.
