“I believe he’s talkin’ to you, Wanda,” Black said. “And he’s right, I really wanna know why you were even havin’ a conversation like that with anybody?”
“People came to me with complaints about the way things were going.” Wanda began.
“Who?” Bobby asked.
“Cynt and Grant.”
“You know damn well that Cynt says what ever you tell her to say and Grant just agrees with what everybody says,” Black said. “So you need to tell me now what complaints did you have with the way Nick was runnin’ things?”
“I think he gave her too much power,” Wanda said and pointed at Rain.
“Me? I know you ain’t tryin’ to make this shit about me.” Rain said.
“I’m not talkin’ to you Ms Robinson,” Black said. “When I wanna hear from you I’ll ask you a question.”
“That means that you shut up,” Bobby added.
“What power did you give her, Nick?” Black asked.
“I let her make the rounds and do collections.”
“Was she effective?” Black asked.
“She was brutal and rude,” Wanda spit out.
Bobby laughed. “She was rude?” But Black wasn’t amused.
“Was she effective?” Black asked again only louder.
“Yes,” Nick said.
“We can go around this point, but the bottom line is, Nick was runnin’ the show, Wanda. If you had a problem with the way he was doin’ the job I gave him, you talk to him. If you can’t get satisfaction you talk to me, you talk to Bobby. Did you do that?” Black asked her.
“No I didn’t, but—,” Wanda began but Black cut her off.
“No, you didn’t. ’Cause you weren’t speakin’ to Nick, you weren’t talkin’ to me. I don’t know why you didn’t talk to Bobby.”
“Bobby was busy,” Wanda said.
“Bobby were you too busy with Pam to talk to Wanda?”
“No. I always got time for Wanda. Besides it would have been a nice change from hearin’ Pam say ‘fuck you Bobby’ all the damn time.”
“What you don’t do is put out a fuckin’ contract on Nick,” Black said.
“I never put a contract on Nick,” Wanda said.
“Yes you did, don’t lie,” Rain said and stood up.
“Ms. Robinson, I’m not gonna tell you again.
If you interrupt me again, Bobby is gonna kill you. Are we clear?”
Rain nodded her head and sat down.
“Now sit down and shut up. Let grown folks talk, little girl,” Bobby said.
“Was Ms. Robinson the target?” Black asked. “Since it was her that you had a problem with, did you send them to kill her and they got Nick instead?”
