“This shit is crazy.”
Kyenna didn’t agree, but I knew she would come when I pulled up. We grabbed her door handle at the same time.
“Move yo’ hand,” I warned her, and she instantly moved it. I opened the car door and let her climb in. “I’ll see you in an hour. Don’t have me out there waitin’ either. We both kno’ I’ll come in.”
An hour exactly, I was pulling up to Kyenna’s front door in a pair of grey jogging pants and a tank top. I sent her a text, and she popped out the door in a pair of jeans and a shirt. I laughed inside because she really went out of her way to change into some fucking jeans like them bitches couldn’t come off.
“Do not drive fast on this thing,” she said.
I hit the gas, making her head jerk just for the fuck of it. I made sure to stop at her security guard and give that nigga some cash. It was important to keep their pockets laid because they knew what the fuck was going on, and I needed them to keep the shit quiet. I parked the golf cart in the garage and closed the door. I opened the door and let her go in first. The last time she was here, she had stopped by with Rah, and that was over two years ago.
“I had lunch with Jaharee a few days ago,” she said before I could ask her ass if she was thirsty.
“And? Y’all do that shit all the time.”
“She noticed you watching me and Lloyd at the event. She also noticed the two of us disappeared around the same time. Thankfully, she assumed you pulled me aside because you were being overbearing about Lloyd again, and I let her believe it.”
“She say anything else?”
“No, but that isn’t even the part that has me pissed.”
“Speak on it,” I told her, leaning against the wall. We hadn't even made it all the way in the damn house.
“She told me Nikki was looking for you while we were gone. Then she told me when you finally came back in the ballroom, you were holding hands with Nikki,” she said, crossing her arms.
“This what you mad ‘bout?” I laughed. “Man, I’m thinkin’ you trippin’ on some shit I did that was bad.”
“Oh, so I’m being dramatic? You the same nigga that be acting a damn fool when Lloyd in my face. You pulled my ass in a private room and kissed me. Then you take your ass back in that ballroom with that girl like y’all the happiest damn couple.”
“Ky–”
She stopped me.
“Then you bring your ass to my house, that I shared with your brother like a fucking possessed person, because I won’t let you in. You force your way in and then eat my pussy like it was the best thing you ever had. You see my issue with you ?”
All I could do was stare at her because I often wondered if this was the feistiness that my brother loved so much. He always talked about how Kyenna would check his ass at any moment.
“I didn’t go back in that ballroom pretending shit. She caught a glimpse of yo’ ass leavin’, and I had to distract her fuckin’ ass before it became somethin’ more.”
“You can’t demand honesty from me, and Lloyd and you move however you want. You were just at the girl’s house, and yet here you are in my damn face. You admitted that you’re bothered when Lloyd is around me. Meanwhile, you have a woman calling you, fucking you, telling you she loves you, and you telling her you love her back.”
“I do love Nikki.”
Kyenna shook her head and laughed. “Then why the fuck are you hounding me, Meek? When I can go do me with Lloyd.”
“Kyenna, you tryin’ to piss me the fuck off?”
She shrugged, and it was something about that that made me back her ass into a wall.
“If you love a woman, this is not what you do to her. Or is that what you tell her to get her off your back?”
I didn’t answer fast enough.
“That’s all I needed to know.” She pushed me to put some space in between us.
“Nah, don’t do that. I been wit’ Nikki for years, so the love is there. That doesn’t mean that what’s happenin’ wit’ us ain’t real.”
“I’m not interested in being the other woman, Meek. I’m muthafuckin’ Kyenna King. The fuck I look like being your side bitch. I know how it feels to be sitting at home while a man you love is somewhere doing something he has no business doing. I will never knowingly put another woman in that position. I don’t give a fuck how attracted I am to you.”
