“Okay.” Trinity nodded, as she grabbed her Louie wallet off the island. “Keep it that way. I’m ‘bout to run to HEB. Keep an eye on your sisters and brothers, Sin J.”
He nodded. “I gotchu.”
Trinity switched off to the garage.
As soon as we could hear the sound of the garage opening, Yatti shoved Sin J.
He lifted his hands in surrender. “Yo, chill.”
“No, cause you’re playing with me,” she gritted, while gripping his shirt.
“Yoooo,” Sin chuckled, as he backed up. “You wildin’ right now.”
“Yeah, you’re tripping,” I spoke up.
She rolled her eyes. “Girl, boo. We aint gon look over the fact that you tried to throw me under the bus. It just didn’t go how you thought, because I aint ashamed of nothing.”
“Well, you should be ashamed of being so fucking thirsty,” I spat, while placing the rattail comb on the glass table Serenity was seated at. Quite frankly, I was ready to box it out with the bitch.
“Nah, you’re the thirsty one. Standing there dick-riding some other bitch. Talking about how his girlfriend loves to fight.”
“Yo, Yatti, chill out—”
“No, fuck that,” I seethed. “Girl, you’re clearly just running your dick suckers. Cause I was clearly talking aboutmyself.”
“Yourself?” She frowned in confusion. “Wait.You’rehis girlfriend?”
I pursed my lips. “Duh.”
She glanced at Sin. “Is she serious?”
“Yea,” he admitted.
“Oh.” She lifted her hands. “Oops. My bad, then. I guess that I wasn’t reading the room.”
“Nah, you wasn’t,” I chided, still feeling a way. Especially because at the end of the night I still had to go home, and she would still be under the same roof with him.
“Look, whatever…cuz. Trinity has been going on and on about us hanging out, and I aint trying to have no bad blood between us. You seem cool, and I don’t want this to be a issue, or whatever.”
I shrugged, as I picked the comb up. “It’ll only be an issue if you make it one.”
“Okay. Then we’re good,” she claimed, before sauntering back into the living room area.
Sin loudly exhaled. “Yo, that shit was crazy.”
“Yeah, it was,” I scoffed, as I leaned Serenity’s head sideways to braid her hair. “And it’s funny how you never mentioned that they were staying here.”
He approached me, and hovered over us. “What are you saying, right now, ma? My step moms is literally your cousin. She talks to your moms pretty much every day. We literally live in the same gated community. There was no secret. It wasn’timportant enough to mention and I just assumed that you’d already heard.”
“Yeah, whatever.” I rolled my eyes.
“So, you mad?” He furrowed his thick brows.
I sighed, while elbowing him. “Can you back up some?”
“No.”
Sucking my teeth, I focused on braiding Serenity’s hair.
