cheated not once. Not even a little bit, and trust me, it wasn't like he couldn't.
Females were on Hayes 24/7. He had the good guy vibe and females loved that shit. It was something about a faithful man that had females trying to fuck him on the regular. I always thought it was the idea of getting him to break, but Keys said it was just the fact that he was what they wanted for themselves. Crazy shit was if he fucked them, then he wasn't faithful anymore, right?
“Yo, Hayes, where you at, nigga?”
I used my key to get in and walked though his house looking for him. I found his ass sitting in his daughter’s room on her little ass bed looking lost as a muthfucker.
“I miss them, Yetti. This shit is all fucked up,” was the first thing he said when he saw me.
“You tried to call her today?”
“Yeah, she still won't answer. Shit’s pissing me off. I want to see my daughter, and Rah needs to bring her as home so that we can talk about this shit.”
“She will, Hayes. She just needs a minute.”
“Fuck a minute. We’re supposed to be in this shit together. That’s how we work. When we have issues, we work that shit out together. I know this don't have nothing to do with Rah, but everything to do with her trifling ass sister being in her head talking shit about me. How the fuck she gon’ listen to a bitter ass bitch that hates on me cause I won't fuck her?”
I laughed because my brother was mad as fuck, but I felt this pain. Rah’s sister was trifling as fuck. She tried to suck Hayes’ dick the day that Rah was in labor with Zora. When he wouldn't, she lied and told Rah that he was the one trying to make that shit happen. She was fucked in the head and obsessed with Hayes. In fact, when Hayes met Rah, it was only because her sister was trying to get with him, but the second he laid eyes on Rah, it was a wrap.
“Why the fuck y'all sitting in here?” Keys leaned against the doorframe with his arms folded looking at us. I could see the stressed look in his face after he noticed how Hayes was doing.
“Cause I miss my got damn daughter.”
“So what you wanna do, Hayes? We can go get her if you want, but then what? You gotta have your got damn head right so she’ll wanna stay.”
Keys looked at me and I could tell we were on the same page. If we really wanted to roll up in Jaryah’s spot we could, but I needed Hayes to be sure.
“My head ain't gon’ be right until I get them home, so let's go do that shit.” He stood and pushed past Keys, moving through his house.
I ran both my hands over my head and then down my face. “You put this shit in motion, so let's go.”
Keys was next to move, and I was right behind him.
About thirty minutes later, we pulled up at Jaryah’s house and the truck that Hayes bought for Rah’s birthday was in the driveway along with her sister’s broke down Altima. We were in my shit with Keys up front and Hayes in the back, so he jumped out and was moving to the door with the quickness.
“Shit, let's go. This nigga’s on one,” Keys said, pulling the door to follow Hayes who was beating on the door already.
“Fuck you want?” she asked when she pulled the door open and glared at the three of us. “She doesn't want to talk to you.”
“Get the fuck outta my way or I’ll knock your ass out. I’m not in the mood to be playing with your dumb ass today.”
“I wish you would. I’ll call the damn cops on you if you lay one finger on me.
“Daddy, I wanna go home,” I heard my niece say from behind the door.
Jaryah reached back and then I heard Zora cry.
Hayes lost it. “Did you just put your hands on my daughter? Fuck wrong with you?” He pushed the door open, damn near knocking Jaryah down and scooped Zora up in his arms.
I pulled my gun and aimed it at Jaryah’s head because she had her phone in her hand like she was about to make a call. “Don’t be stupid. This shit can go all kind of wrong and it ain’t about you. Mind your business and let
