Even though I had all Andre’s money, that nigga was still mad as hell when I told him a much wilder version of what really happened with Dexter and them.

“Mike, I told you specifically that I wanted Dexter alive.”

“I know you did, but they shot first and …”

“I know, I know, what were you supposed to do.” Andre shook his head. “I thought I told you to take Bobby with you.”

“Couldn’t find him or The Kid, so I went alone and took care of your business for you.”

“Get outta here, Mike. Get the fuck outta here,” Andre said, and I got up to leave his office. “You need to get your head together.”

“Yes, sir.”

“No, Mike, I’m serious. You need to get your shit together. I can’t have you kill everybody I send you to collect from. You need to take some time off. Get out of the city for a while. Go to L.A., Miami, Vegas or someplace and don’t come back until you got whatever this shit is you’re going through out of your system.”

Chapter Seven

L.A., Miami, Vegas … shit, I wasn’t feeling going to any of those places. What the fuck was I gonna do in any of those places that I couldn’t do right here in the city.

Fuck that.

I ain’t going no damn where and there damn sure wasn’t shit wrong with me. So I killed a few people. It wasn’t the first time and it wouldn’t be the last. I didn’t like none of them niggas no way.

When I left Andre’s office, I was feeling good. Thinking about what I was gonna do with the time off and more importantly, who I was gonna do.

“I know how we gonna get Andre his money,” Bobby said as soon as I got in the car with him.

“I’m in.”

“Don’t you wanna hear what it is?”

“Yeah, but unless it’s some ridiculously stupid shit …”

“Which you know I ain’t gonna come at you with.”

“Or some insane, risky shit …”

“Which we both know that I am more than capable of,” Bobby said and turned on the avenue.

“You and me both.” We both laughed.

“But it ain’t nothing like that,” Bobby assured.

“Then I’m in.” I paused. “Because I don’t have anything going that we can make a quick thirty G’s on. So let’s hear it.”

“I was at Andre’s spot last night, when Lamar and Marlo came in,” Bobby began.

“What they want?”

“Came to do business.”

“Without Charlie Rock?”

“Told Ricky they were steppin’ it up.”

“With Charlie’s money.” I shook my head. “Nigga’s ain’t shit. I guess they ain’t got Charlie’s blessin’?”

“Oh, hell no. Before he left, Lamar steps to me and says, I know you and Charlie is cool and shit, but you know like, can we keep this between us for a minute.”
