Nikki pushed away from the table and stood.
“That’s supposed to make me respect her? She still let you in.”
“I’m not askin’ you to respect shit.”
“Then what are you asking me for, Shameek? Understanding? Because I don’t have any. I loved you. I accepted more from you than I should’ve. All this time, I thought I was losing you to the streets, your family, your grief, and your business. The whole time, I was losing you to Kyenna.”
I stood, too.
“Nikki, I’m not finna stand here and let you make this into some competition shit. This shit wit’ me and you been fucked up before Kyenna ever touched me. We kept repeatin’ the same cycle and callin’ it love because neither one of us wanted to let go.”
“You’ve never had a problem before. The truth is you had no problem cumming inside of me, telling me you love me and then going over there to fuck your brother’s wife.”
“Widow,” I corrected.
As soon as the word left my mouth, I regretted it.
“You corrected me fast as fuck.”
“He is dead. She is not cheatin’ on him.”
“No. Just fucking his brother before his grave can get cold.”
“Watch yo’ muthfuckin’ mouth.”
Nikki stopped and so did I.
“Aight. So what we doin’?” I asked, rubbing the back of my neck.
“Excuse me?”
“I’m not gonna keep lyin’ to you. You kno’ now. I care ‘bout Kyenna. I don’t kno’ what the fuck it’s gonna turn into, but I’m not cuttin’ the shit off just to come back here and repeat the same problems me and you been havin’.”
That hurt her. Still dragging the shit out was going to make it worse so I snatched the band-aid off.
“So that’s it?”
“I guess so.”
Nikki wiped her face and went to the counter. She came back with a folder.
“Fuck is that?”
“Since we are playing a dirty game. I think I’ll pay your little bitch a visit and see how she likes what’s inside this folder I found.”
I had no idea what she was talking about. Kyenna and I had a few videos we made, but no one should’ve had access to them.
“Give me the folder.”
She opened it and flipped to a page that made my heart stop.
“You still want to play this game?”
I pulled my gun out and put a bullet between her eyes.
