“I… yeah… she’s… we grew up together,” he sputters, eyes wide with fear, limbs trembling.
Fucking piece of trash, acting like a big man with my girl and sneaking back into the night to fucking cause her trouble. Fucking wish murder was legal in the state of California.
I dig the tips of my fingers into his shoulder at a pressure point I know will make him feel like his insides are getting flooded with boiling water. And the fucking moron fucking yells his lungs out.
I stop the fucking torture just long enough to coldly stare at Johnson incredulously blink tears down his pretty boy face.
“Jasmine is my woman, kid.”
“Yes, sir. I’m so fucking sorry. I will…”
“Shhh,” I hush him again, applying just enough force to remind him of the type of pain I can inflict. And the rat fucking whimpers. Another press of my fingers, just a smudge harder. “That window needs boarding. Your ass needs to get down on your knees and a beg for my girl’s forgiveness. And you will never try anything like that shit you pulled last night with any woman ever again.”
“Yes, siiirrrr,” he wails when I pressure a different point.
I let him fall of the wall into a pitiful pile at my feet, sobbing into his folded arms, pathetic little piece of shit who thinks he’s a big man harassing women. I’ll fucking teach you.

JASMINE
I startle awake when I hear loud banging noises. I sit up, looking around an unfamiliar room. When I see the tangled sheets and clothes thrown on the floor, everything comes back! Jake! Jake!! Jake!!! Jake!!!! My heart and body chant his name in unison and without even thinking I jump off the bed, only using a sheet to haphazardly cover up. But when I fling the door open, it’s not Jake who’s standing there in all his glory. It’s my dad… and he looks fucking livid!

“Daddy, I promise I can explain!”
His eyes grow wide. “You can fucking explain why I found you naked at my best friend’s house?”
“Childhood best friend,” I chance, which gets me another scathing look.
“Jazzy,” my dad warns. “I’m this fucking close to losing it. What the fuck are you doing here?!”
But before I can reply- I’m not even sure what, anyway- the door slams open behind my dad. And Jake fucking O’Malley appears in all his splendor. Fucking tall, broad, and larger than life itself.
“Kareem, brother. I’m sorry you had to find out this way.”
My dad swiftly turns around.
“What the fuck?”
Guess he wasn’t expecting a reunion with his old buddy… Jake’s eyes fall on me and I feel my toes curl. My dad gave me time to go change, but Jake is fucking eating me up like he’s ready to fucking throw me over his shoulder and stride into the fucking bedroom. Fuck!
My dad’s bulging eyes go from Jake to me with incredulity. Like his brain can’t fathom what seems to be happening.
“You’re fucking shitting me? Right, O’Malley?”
“Afraid not, brother.”
Jake walks to me and fucking drapes a casual arm over my shoulders, making my own eyes bug out. Fuck…
The way my father’s face constricts reminds me that time he found my sister and i high off our asses when we were in high school.
“Jake,” my dad growls.
“You gonna be a fucking hypocrite? Like I wasn’t there when you claimed Jess?”
“It’s not the same fucking thing,” my dad grits out.
