“You been holding shit down?”

“What you think?” Noble snorted, looking at Tuck.

He managed to come see Tuck when time permitted it. They rarely talked over the phone since he wasn’t a phone person.

He laughed. “You still a snooty bitch, huh?”

Noble chuckled and shook his head. “No, I’m a free bitch unlike you, nigga.”

“Damn.” Tuck chortled hard. “You ain’t have to kill me like that.”

“Then stop playing with me.”

“Naw for real, what’s been up? Shit been smooth?”

Nodding, Noble replied, “Yeah everything on the business side been good. My personal shit done got chaotic.”

Tuck’s thin brows rumpled. “Like what?”

Noble ran his hand down his face, contemplating if he wanted to confide in Tuck. Normally, he kept his business to himself but at this point, he could use some sound reasoning.

“A’ight so, I fucked around and fell for somebody who I wasn’t supposed to fuck with.”

“Who? Daysha?”

Noble scowled right away. “Man, hell no.”

“My bad. I thought y’all got back together.”

“That shit ain’t never happening.”

Noble was so disgusted with the way Daysha had showed her ass at the restaurant that the thought of them reconciling made him sick.

“A’ight so, who is it, nigga?”

Noble licked his lips before looking Tuck square in the eyes. “It’s Jovanis’ wife.”

Tuck’s brows rose as his eyes bucked from the sockets. “Nigga what? You pulled Irish’s bad ass?”

Bobbing his head, Noble confirmed, “Yeah.”

“Oooh wee. I can’t tell you how many times I envisioned fucking her red-headed ass from the back. I know that pussy hittin’.”

Noble cut his eyes at his cousin. “Aye, nigga, chill out.”

Laughing, Tuck covered his mouth with his fist. “Aw, I know yo’ tender ass don’t call yourself being sweet on her.”

“Cuz, I’m more than sweet on her. I want her for real and don’t give a fuck about her being married.”

“Word?” Tuck was so enthralled in Noble’s secret that his eyes glowed.

“Yeah, and it’s fucking me up because I know I’m going to bring drama to TLM.”

Tuck nodded. “Yeah, this gon’ get ugly ‘cause Jovanis love her ass. You might start a war.”

“And the crazy thing about it is that I’m ready for it. I respect his stance to go against me but I’m not about to stop fucking with her.”

“So, you in love?” Tuck grinned.
