clothing and hair.â Hell, he got ithonest. Kevin did the same thing but when you pointed that out to him, well now; that was just crazy talk. God forbid anyone think he was gay. If and when Donnell decided that he would bring someone home, she just hoped it would be before whomever got pregnant.
She continued to her bedroom and called Dee. After three rings, Dee finally picked up.
âHey hussy, whatâs shaking?â
âNuttin but my ass,â Dee replied
âNo really, what are you doing?â
âNothing, chilling. Waiting for my man to come on over and scratch my itch.â
âOh, back to men this week?â
âBitch, please. Ainât nothing like a good sized man.â
âUnlessâ¦.?â
âItâs a good licking woman.â
âEww, you are so damn nasty!â Cheryl laughed.
âGirl, please, donât get all stuck up. I forgot. You donât know what you are missing. Besides that fine ass man of yours scratches and licks whatever you want.â
âGirl, please. First of all, I ainât missing nothing and secondly, he ainât licking or scratching nothing here but his own itchy ass.â
âWhat! Are you telling me that Kevin ainât licking your lollipop? Please if that were my man, that nigga wouldnât get up until he had eaten all what was on his damn plate.â
âTsk, please. If he wanted to, I wouldnât let him.â
âYou crazy as hell!â
âPlease, believe me when I tell you, I ainât interested in his mouth being nowhere near that. Hell, especially since I donât know where his damn mouth has been.â
âGirl, you ought to quit.â
âIâm serious, that nigga is probably eating somewhere else, so let him have it. Iâd probably not like it anyway.â
âAll the reason you need to make him eat until he gets tiredâ
âPlease, heâd probably eat so fast heâd give himself indigestion, and then get mad if I said I was still hungry.â
âSo?â Dee said.
âWhat do you mean, so? Iâd rather not deal with the hassleâ Cheryl said as she stretched out on her queen-sized bed and drew the burgundy and gold pillow under her head.
âYou are crazier than shit. Ainât no way that nigga would be selfish and not let me get mine.
âWell, thatâs you.â
âYou are crazy. If I donât get mine, I am letting a nigga know.â
âAnd what good does that do?â
âThat puts a nigga on notice, that he better finish the job or I will call somebody that can.â
âYou will not,â she laughed.
âWho, you must be tripping. I know I put it on him and he better damn straight put it on me or Iâm gonna have to talk about his ass or get Karletta to finish the job.â
âYou are a mess,â Cheryl said, laughing.
âYou damn right, but a satisfied one. Now what the hell did you want?â
âNothing really, I just wanted to talk to your crazy ass.â
Dee commented on how crazy Cheryl was for not having her toes curled and instantly Cheryl was in a bad mood.
âI gotta go.â
âGirl, get a damn grip. Now you wanna get off the phone. Look is Kevin going out of town soon?â she asked.
âYeah, why would you ask?â
âJust taking a stab in the dark because you always get like this when he does. So how long will he be gone this time?â
âFour days I think, Thursday through Sunday.â She said as she pulled the phone away from her ear to see who was calling. She hit the ignore button and continued listening to Dee.
âOh, oh. Party time.â
âNaw, not for me, I wonât have a babysitter for the kids.âCheryl said.
âGirl, no you didnât just play the kid card. Donnell is what, 16, 17 years old and little Miss Kayla is 12 years old. They arenât babies anymore. I am sure they can be without mommy for a couple
