be heard down the block. Xavier grabbed Jermaine and helped him out the door. Raymond and Travis followed. They all managed to get in their vehicles and drive off before the first squad car showed up.

"You was worry about me and old Maine go in and get knocked out by dudes," Clipz laughed from the driver's side of the Roadrunner. "Told that nigga about fucking with them hoes. Oooohhh. We should have murdered those niggas!"

"Shut the fuck up!" Jermaine said with his hands over his head. Blood was gushing from the open wound that was above his right eye. Blood was getting into his eye.

Xavier was in the passenger seat looking back at Jermaine.

"Let me see, dog, is it bad?" Xavier asked.

"I can't see shit," Jermaine said.

"Stop whining like a bitch," Clipz remarked. "I told you that nigga wasn't built for this shit. Stick to that credit card scam and boosting cars and shit."

"Yo, shit the fuck up," Xavier said.

Raymond pulled up alongside of them in his jeep and yelled out the window.

"What the fuck you want to do?" Raymond asked.

"We may have to take this nigga to the hospital," Xavier said.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"I got to start reevaluating my life," Wisdom said looking at the passenger seat car window.

"Not this speech again," Jay stated rolling his eyes as he grabbed the steering wheel to make another turn.

"What?" Wisdom said defensively.

"You always giving me that bullshit about you want to change and settle down and shit," Jay informed. "Then guess what you meet another slim goody and it's back to the old you. Look, nigga, you the son of a pimp. Not just a pimp. Thee Pimp. Nicky Barnes even Alpo use to get hoes from his stable. Your pops made a legacy and you trying to stop that."

"Look what it costed him," Wisdom added. "All those hoes and he couldn't keep the one woman that held him down and tried to get him to change."

"You just mad they split up and she lives in Brooklyn now," Jay remarked. "I know you miss them being together. But let's face it Daddy K is always going to be Daddy K."

"That's what my mom always use to say," Wisdom replied looking at his friend then back out the window.

Jay stopped his car in front of Wisdom's apartment building.

"Look, man, whenever you ready to stop with speeches and just happy with what you are and let your boy reek the benefits," Jay said as Wisdom opened the car door to get out. "Holler at me."

Wisdom laughed and shook his head as he got out the vehicle and closed the car door behind him.

Maybe Jay is right, Wisdom thought, maybe I do need to accept the fact I am a son of a pimp. Pimping was in his blood. Like that rapper Biggie Smalls use to say 'I'm a pimp by blood not relations.'

Wisdom entered his apartment and as usually his father wasn't there. Wisdom took his clothes off. He couldn't wait to take a shower and get her latest conquest's stench on him. Like his father always use to say 'ain't nothing that could turn off new pussy quicker than the smell of old pussy." Wisdom laughed. Daddy K always had sayings and observation when it came to the opposite sex. Daddy K was the master of his field and he was a professor in his craft.

Wisdom needed to take another nap after his shower. He really didn't get much sleep last night due to Ebony who keep trying to lay on him after their sex session. Wisdom turned the tabs for the shower and got in. He let the water soothed him as grabbed his wash cloths and began cleaning his body.

He felt nice and refreshed after his shower and donned his bathrobe to hit the bed. He was out cold in a matter of minutes. He was not in a deep sleep for too long before his cell phone rung and woke him up. He answered the mobile groggy.

"Hey, what’s your business?" Wisdom asked not looking at the caller id on the phone.

"Hey, Wisdom," the caller said on the other end. "It's me, Remy. You met me at Speed last night and gave me your number. Did I catch you at a bad time?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, baby girl, I'm in sleep mode," Wisdom informed. "Can I call you later?"

"Sure thing, cutie," Remy replied a little disappointment she couldn't talk to Wisdom right then. "Call me later, you got my number."

Wisdom just clicked the off button on the phone and threw it across the room. He patted his pillow and went back to snooze land.

He woke up an hour to his cellular phone.

"Hello, who is it?" he asked groggy.

"It's your mother," the lady said on the other end.

"Hey, whas good?"

"Nothing, just about to finish this double. I'm tired but I'm hungry," she replied.

"Cool, cool, I'll come by and we can go get something to eat," Wisdom said.

"You don't have to," his mother said.

"No, no, besides I got to get used to seeing my mother in her new habitat," Wisdom said.

"Will you need to start seeing me more often," she said with a smile. "I miss my whizzie."

"Stop calling me that," Wisdom laughed. "Anyway I'll be over there to pick you up."

"Ok, I know a great spot we can go to," his mother smiled.

 

 

 

Wisdom was sitting in the waiting room of Woodhull Hospital where his mother was now working. A group of guys came in looking like they had been an altercation. Wisdom could tell they were trouble the way they walked in like they owned the place. They flopped down on the chairs making all sorts of noise. Wisdom quickly ignored them and focused on the young lady who was also in the waiting area with a little boy next to her drawing in a coloring book. The woman was looking in Wisdom's direction as well.

Wisdom didn't even know one of the hoods that were sitting down was looking at the same thing he was looking at until the ruffian got up and said something.

"Yo, why you staring at me?" the baldheaded thug yelled at Wisdom's direction.

The thug's entourage started looking at Wisdom as well.

"I'm talking to you," the guy said pointing at Wisdom. "You got a problem?"

"Nah, man, I was just chilling," Wisdom said. "I'm not trying to start nothing."

"You just did," the thug said. "You know who I am?"

"A very large man," Wisdom replied and the lady chuckled.

"You think I'm a joke? You think I'm funny?" the whole entourage stood up.

"Is there a problem here?" a security guard asked coming out of nowhere.

"No, officer," the gang leader said. "We just waiting.'

The gang sat back down and didn't say another word. Wisdom's mother came out from the back room putting on her coat.

"You ready?" she asked Wisdom.

Wisdom nodded as another woman came out of the same back room as his mother did and went over to the lady with the boy.

Wisdom looked back at the thugs and notice they were still staring. Wisdom simply brushed it off his shoulders and headed out the hospital with his mother.

The female that was in the waiting room ran out behind him and slipped a piece of paper in his hand.

"I like the way you handled that," she said.

"Wait until you see me handle other stuff," Wisdom remarked.

"I can't wait," she winked and walked back in the hospital.

 

 

"My dude getting out the game," Xavier said to Raymond and Travis as he got into Travis' jeep.

"Word," Raymond said.

"Yeah, talk to him after he got out the hospital," Xavier said. "The cut over his eye all stitched up. He don't like how things went down. I mean he lucky it won't down like that better than Clipz coming up shooting up the place but still..."

"You wasn't built for this," Travis said. "He a pretty boy nigga. Pretty boy niggas need to be in the cut."

Xavier shook his head.

"I guess so," Xavier said.

"Anyway we need to get that shit out of our head and get ready to party with some bitches," Travis said.

"What's the words on those GMG boys?" Xavier asked.

"You heard what I said," Travis reiterated. "Time to leave the shit alone and go fuck with some bitches."

"Yeah if you say so," Raymond said. "You know your boy Clipz hooked up with Tony Childs. They running town looking for those cats. Clipz ain't happy unless he laying some slugs in something."

"Fuck Clipz," Travis said.

"Yo, we need to..." Xavier's word stopped short when he saw a familiar face walk out a convenient store. "Stop the car! Stop the car!"

Travis didn't know what was going on but he pressed his foot on the brakes. The vehicle came to a screechy halt. Xavier jumped out the jeep.

"Remember me, Mister Comedian," Xavier said walking up to Wisdom.

"Yeah," Wisdom stopped in his tracks. 'What the fuck..."

Xavier didn't even give Wisdom a chance to respond, he just swung on him. Wisdom took the punch dead on but didn't fall. Wisdom just came back with a left hook that connected with Xavier's jaw. Raymond and Travis both got out of the vehicle as they watched their friend tussle with the guy they met at the hospital three days ago. Raymond eventually got Xavier off of Wisdom and Travis came in between them.

"What the fuck, man?" Travis asked.

Xavier was breathing hard while Raymond subdued him.

"Get off me! “Xavier said flailing his arms and Raymond let him go.

Wisdom stepped back holding his bloody nose.

"What the fuck was that all about?" Wisdom asked. "I don't even know you."

"You don't have to know me," Xavier said. "Just know I'm not the one to be laughed at."

"All that to prove a point," Wisdom said. 'You could have just texted that."

Travis laughed so did Raymond. Xavier looked then starting laughing too.
