Toy's Story (25 page)

“
Logic,
I
know
I
hurt
you
and
I'm
sorry.
”
Nakeisha
declared through tears
as
she
tried
to
move
closer
to
him.
“
Please
baby
just
put
the
gun
down.
I'm
home
now.
”

“
Bitch
I
don't
want
you.
Fucking
this
nigga
is
the
best
thing
that
you've
ever
done
for
me.
I
have
a
woman
and
y'all
got
to
take
your
silly
ass
buffoonery
some
fuckin
where
else.
And
don't
even
fuckin
think
about
touching
me, Nakeisha.
”

Needless
to
say
that
was
my
cue
to
reveal
myself.
“
What's
going
on
baby?
”
I
asked
as
I
reached
a
comfortable
perch
on
the
stairs
where
I
could
witness
the
drama
but
avoid
being
shot.
“
I
called
the
police
is
everything
okay?
”

“
No,
everything
is
not
okay.
These
two
silly
ass,
stupid,
broke
Mother
Fuckas
right
here
are
about
to
get
some
hot
shit
in
their
ass
if
they
don't
get
the
fuck
out
of
my
house
and
my
life
in
about
five
seconds.
”
He
snorted
as
he
pointed
his
weapon
at
Nakeisha
and
Mookey.

Nakeisha's
eyes
instantly
locked
on
me
and
she
had
the
audacity
to
get
angry.
“
Who
the
fuck
is
she
and
what
the
fuck
is
she
doing
in
my
house?
”

“
Your
fuckin
house?
Bitch
you
must
have
fell
and
bumped
your
head,
because
you
just
lost
your
fuckin
mind.
Your
ass
barely
spent
the
night
here.
Hoe,
please.
”
Logic
chuckled.
“
I
don't
know
what
the
fuck
I
was
even
thinking
giving
your
skanky
ass
a
key.
Matter
fact...
Put
my
God
damn
keys
over
there
right
the
fuck
now!”

“
Logic
why
can't
we
just
talk...
”

“
Nakeisha,
you're
not
listening
to
me!
Take
your
shit
and
your
broke
ass
man
and
get
the
FUCK
out
of
my
house
before
I
shoot
your
ass.
 
Oh
yeah,
and
don't
forget
to
leave
my
fuckin
keys.
”

As
I
spotted
the
flashing
lights
at
a
distance
and
heard
the
distinct
sound
of
sirens approaching,
I
knew
it
was
time
to
get
the
gun
from
Logic.
The
last
thing
I
needed
was
the
police
to
mistakenly
shoot
him
instead
of
one
of
those
dumb
ass
fools
he
was
threatening
to shoot
.

I
said
not
a
word,
but
simply
walked
up
behind
him
and
hugged
his
waist.
“
Give
me
the
gun
so
I
can
take
it
upstairs
before
the
police
come
in.
Let
them
deal with
this
monkey
shit.
”
I
whispered
in
his
ear.
          

Logic
chuckled.
“
You're
right.
Don't
worry
I
got
it.
”
He
immediately
popped
the
bullet
out
of
the
chamber.
Put
the
safety
on. “You'd better thank her because she just saved your lives.” He said before
taking the gun
to
his
study
where
he
locked
it
in
a
hidden
safe.

While
he
was
gone
I
took
the
liberty
of
introducing
myself
to
the
two
orangutans
that
stood
spellbound
before
me.
“
Hi
I'm
Zatoya
Waters,
Logic's
girlfriend
and
attorney.
The
police
will
be
in
here
any
second
so
listen
to
me.
I
know
you're
here
because
you
don't
have
any
money
or
anywhere
else
to
go.
I
get
that.
So,
take
your
things
and
I'll
put
you
up
at
a
hotel
for
a
few
nights.
Meanwhile
I'll
talk
to
Logic
about
a
fair
settlement
offer
so
you
two
can
go
on
with
your
lives.
Okay?
”

“
Fuck
you
and
fuck
that.
Logic's
my
fuckin
man!
”
Nakeisha
retorted.

“
Fine...
If
that's
how
you
feel.
I'll
let
the
police
haul
your
ghetto
asses
to
jail
for
trespassing?
”

“
We'll
take
your
offer.
”
Mookey
announced.
“
There's
a
Holiday
Inn
a
few
miles
from
here.
We'll
go
there.
”

“
What?
The
Holiday
Inn.
Oh
hell
no! Do you have any clue how much money Logic is worth? Fuck that! He can do a lot better than the fuckin Holiday Inn.
”

“
Nakeisha,
I
can't
scam
Logic.
He's
my
best
friend.
If
we
ask
him
for
money
to
help
us
get
on
our
feet
then
he'll
help.
I'm
not
going
to
fuck
you
behind
his
back
anymore.
So,
yes...
We'll
take
your
offer.
”

“
Smart
man
that
you
have
there
Nakeisha.
So
what
is
it
going
to
be?
”
I
asked
as
I
watched
Logic
heading
back
towards
the
foyer.
