“Damn, now I need a bigger bottle,” Law Baby said and turned to get whatever bottle she was speaking of.

Murder’s eyes were glued to her ass and legs. He had to catch himself from asking her why the fuck she had that bullshit she called clothes on in the first place. Not one blemish on her legs and her toes were painted just like he liked his lady’s feet. Yeah, she was his boy’s ex and all that, but he was the one who fucked up, not her.

It was time for Murder to try his hand because it had been too long since he had seen her in the first place. He left Pain and Nell standing where they were and followed Law Baby.

“Law Baby, are you good? It’s been a minute since I’ve seen you. You’re looking good,” he told her.

“I know damn well you not shooting your damn shot right now. I was in a whole relationship with your boy. Anyway, you never liked my ass back then, and now all of a sudden you wanna know how I’m fucking doing. Nigga you’re fucking doing the most right now. Move the fuck around,” she told him.

“You got shit twisted right now. I’ll let you be great right now though, shawty,” he told her before walking away.

Lawrynn stood there wondering what the fuck his problem was. Murder had never said anything to her, but now he was shooting his shot? Not only that, he was in a liquor store in front of her ex and his best friend. She shook her head, not even wanting to know what the hell was going on in Murder’s head. She got her bottle and headed back to the cash register.

“Umm, what the hell was that about? Did you see Pain’s face? That nigga was thirty-eight hot with his boy. They gonna fight over your ass when they get back to the barbershop,” Nell said and laughed.

“Pain left out of the blue, and Murder hardly acknowledged my presence. I doubt they’re gonna fight. I do know they won’t be sitting around the table talking about how my pussy feel. Fucking friends is not my MO, and you know that shit,” she told Nell.

“Did you see the way that nigga was looking at you? They won’t be friends for long, bitch. I want all the details too, heffa. Don’t play,” Nell told her as they got in Lawrynn’s car and headed to her house for a night of movies and drinks.

While the girls were both trying to understand what happened, Murder was ignoring the bitching that Pain was doing on the way back to the barbershop.

“What the fuck was that shit? You trying to push up on my girl now, nigga?” Pain asked.

“She’s not ya girl no more, man. You’re fucking her cousin, remember?” Murder said, trying to throw shade at his friend.

Pain stopped in his tracks.

“Let me find out you’ve been wanting her, nigga. All this time you’ve been trying to get at my girl, nigga. Huh? Say something,” Pain fussed.

“I’m not one of those niggas on the street. Watch ya fucking tone with me. I don’t play that disrespectful shit,” Murder said.

“I can’t believe you’re moving like a bitch,” Pain said.

Before the last syllable of the word bitch left Pain’s lips, Murder had him by the throat.

“Oh, you can fuck her cousin and anybody else, but I can’t fuck with her? You can treat her like shit, but I can’t treat her like the queen she is? Is that what the fuck you saying?” Murder roared as his friend was choking and turning blue.

The entire shop had stopped moving. All eyes were on the two men who had grown up together. They had never seen Murder act like this before. Of course, everyone in the shop knew what Murder was capable of but knowing something and seeing it was two different things, especially right now.

Murder didn’t see anyone in the shop but Pain. He wanted to snap his friend’s neck right where they stood.

“I can’t hear you, bitch!” Murder yelled.

“Fuck you,” Pain said.

“That’s what the fuck I thought. You did her wrong as fuck, nigga. Now watch me get her right,” Murder said as he let Pain’s neck go. Pain bent over coughing and trying to catch his breath. “Let me know now if me and her is gonna be a problem for you,” Murder said as he watched his friend struggle to get right.

“It’ll never happen,” Pain finally got out.

“Yeah, okay. All I’m gonna say is this is ya last time to say how you feel. After this, keep the shit to ya self. If you can’t, then say that shit too. You know how I carry my shit. Ain’t no need to act like I won’t murder you about mine,” Murder told him.

“Yours? Nigga, please. She always gonna be mine. I’m the one who broke her in, nigga. She always gonna love me,” Pain said, trying to get under Murder’s skin.

“When you know better, you do better,” Murder told him then left Pain on the floor and went into his office, slamming the door behind.

Chapter 5

Murder didn’t come out of his office until everyone was long gone from the shop. He hated to act like that with his boy, but shit, what was he supposed to do? Not getting at Law Baby was not in the cards. The way Murder saw it, enough time had passed since the breakup. He couldn’t keep trying to spare Pain’s feelings when he saw an actual future with Law Baby.
