love for the big girls and they had love for him.
“So tell me something good,” K said when Thumper was gone.
“Check it out fam. It is crazy cash out that muthafucka. I got 9 G’s outside in the car and if I would have sold some weight I would have been done the same day we got there. You sellin O’s here for $750 and they payin $1200 all day long, “said Dark excited about future prospects.
K too was getting excited as he ran numbers through his mental calculator. He had bubbled his paper to just under enough to grab 2 bricks. Then something clicked in K’s mind. In all his stress he had forgotten that he only sent him with a 4 ½ ounces.
“Hold up. You made 9 G’s in 2 days off a big 8?”
“Nah niggah! I made $10,500, kept $500 for the pocket and got an apartment with the other G.”
K smiled as he absorbed this new information with his mental calculator counting up the possibilities. Outside of his local weight customers he only had one spot left pumping slabs . It was still flowing decent, but overall his hustle had taken a significant blow. Always the thinker K switched angles.
“So what’s the weather like out that way? Is the po-po hot or did you maneuver around without problems, “ K instinctively asked, recalling his recent troubles.
“I’m sayin -I seen a few riding but it wasn’t nothing that I couldn’t work around. I’m ready to make moves though, that’s why I grabbed the crib.”
Thumper returned with their drinks and K filled Darkside in on everything that had happened since he left town. The situation with Lonnie and Norma. The living conditions with Reebie which was beginning to be a burden. And last but definitely not least, the situation with the crooked cops Rat and Fat.
“You need to get out of town and lay low for a minute. I’m telling you fam ,that shit is soooo sweet, “ said Dark.
“I’m with you, I just have to handle a few things. When Ya ll tryin to bounce back?”
“Shit- yesterday!”
“I can dig it. But look let’s go grab that paper so I can make a move. I’ll grab the work in the morning and we can roll after I handle some overdue business tomorrow night,” said K with determination in his voice. They toasted drinks to mo money and focused on the near future.
Chapter 10
Mattie wasn’t cool with K going out of town. She had already begun to feel that dependency feeling again on a man, and that she was very uncomfortable with. He had told her that he would be leaving for no more than four days and there would be plenty money in the safe in case of emergency.
“Well dam, can I go with you?” she asked not wanting to be separated from him again.
“Please don’t make this more difficult than it is. You know I just took some losses and I need some getback . Plus I don’t know a lot about the town. If it’s some gunplay, I don’t want to take you into a situation like that.”
This really wasn’t the truth and Mattie could sense it. The truth was that with all the stress that K had been going through and the added stress of Reebie staying with them at the apartment, he needed some time away. He was also going through a mental battle over the rumors of Mattie’s other extra activities while he was locked up. He had come to find out that she had been on some real loose shit. He was really trying to work past the past.
“So you just going to leave me again? Alright that’s cool, “ said Mattie and stormed off to the bedroom with an attitude.
