up.
“Can’t call it” Terrell said returning the gesture.
“They took ya order yet?” Renz asked as he took a sip of his drink, and hung up on the person he was on the phone with, without so much as a fuck you.
“Nigga you know damn well they aint take no order, since we always order the same shit” Terrell said. Renz didn’t say a word, instead he looked over the menu as if he wasn’t about to get what he always got.
“Hey fellas, what can I get for you both?” the young waitress asked, she was the daughter of the owner and was there working on her summer break from school.
“What’s up Kerry, imma have my usual” Terrell said not wasting anytime on letting her know what he wanted
“Ah shit, umm let me just get what I normally get too” Renz said closing the menu. Kerry didn’t say anything instead she just smirked because the last two times she had been there to take there order Renz did the exact same thing.
“Fuck you waste her time for, when you knew damn well you won’t gonna get nothing different” Terrell asked as he leaned back in the booth.
“Let’s get down to business, I got this freak to meet” He said ignoring Terrell’s question, and Terrell didn’t respond instead he nodded his head towards him, as if to say ‘go ahead’. “So the last time two times I picked up from the store, it’s been short, the first time it was 10k, and the second time it was 15k. Now I can’t get why the fuck we falling so short because it damn sure aint from sales, so the only thing I can think of is, is someone sticking their hand where it don’t belong.” Renz said.
Terrell didn’t say a word instead he set up in the booth as his jaw began to twitch which was a sure indication he was pissed. ‘Who the fuck would be brave enough to steal from me, and why when we all getting fucking money, I make sure everybody well taking care and there fucking families.’ Terrell thought as his jaw continued to twitch.
“So how you want to handle this shit?” Renz asked when there food was placed down in front of them. Terrell didn’t know if Renz had continued talking because he had zoned out when he heard someone was stealing from him. “Rell you hear me?” Renz asked while he shoved a fork full of collard greens in his mouth.
“Uh yea I hear you” Terrell said while digging his pocket, he had seriously took a blow from the news that had just been dropped, he just couldn’t figure out why someone would want to take from him. “I’m out yo, imma get up with ya later” Terrell continued as he threw a $100.00 bill on top of his untouched food; even though he and Renz never had to pay for their food, they still always left money. He walked out the restaurant without saying another word, he had to find the thief and quick because who knows how much they had taken from him, and if not caught they would hit again, and again.
Renz didn’t move, he knew not to, because he knew once his best friend got like this, it was best to just let him be so he continued to eat, and he would just wait for Terrell to call him.
Chapter 4
Phoenix had been at Geno’s house since he had picked her up three days ago, and if she was honest with herself she was ready to go home. Within those last few days, Geno had shown her at least 3 different sides to him and she didn’t like neither one of them. Not only that, Geno had different women in and out of his house, and it wasn’t that Phoenix cared because they were not together but she actually hated how he treated them, and they did nothing.
“Phoenix you ready sweets?” Geno asked in his normal personality that Phoenix was used to.
“Yes I am” Phoenix said happy this was coming to an end. ‘And once you drop me off, you don’t have to ever worry about me anymore’ Phoenix thought to herself as her and Geno headed out the door. After about a thirty minute ride, they pulled in front of Phoenix’s apartment complex, and she was going to climb out
