Love Lockdown
Since that last incident with Trice a couple of weeks ago things with Black and me had been better. I decided that I wasn’t about to let him slip away or waste my time fighting with some chick that he didn’t even want. In all actuality she wasn’t any competition. There wasn’t a chick around as fly as me. Yeah, she had his baby but I had his heart and I wasn’t letting it go no matter how hard I had to fight to keep it. I realized how much his son meant to him and I wasn’t trying to stand in the way of that but I had to get him where I wanted him. When it came to planning, I was the queen. Shit, she could try but I had a defense for every attack in the book. So I sat around thinking of a way that I could grab him hook, line, and sinker. I came up with the answer: having his child. I had never thought of having a child before now but I knew how much that meant to him. I wanted to keep the kind of control that Trice had. Shit, even if we weren’t together he’d still be around. Unlike Trice, I didn’t need him for money, I needed him for power. What we had took both of us to maintain. When Kemp died I was left with properties and numerous businesses, including an auto-body shop, a few corner stores, a barbershop and hair salon. Though I had more than enough money to keep up living the lavish life we were used to, Black needed to be in control. It’s sort of like a boy waiting his whole life to run the family business. Black waited in the wings for the chance to walk in Kemp’s shoes and now that the door was wide open there was no way I could pull him away from it. Honestly, I wasn’t sure that I wanted to. There were some things about the business that I didn’t like—the women, the late nights, and the threats. But just as I hated those things I loved the fact that it made him happy to finally be in charge. He was in his element, no longer having someone telling him what to do and how high to jump. I could never understand how he worked for Kemp as long as he had but I guess his loyalty meant more.
Finally knowing my family was also something that pushed me toward having children because family was more important to me now than ever. Now that I had a family I didn’t want to let go.
I was on birth control for as long as I could remember. When I ended up knocked up as a teen my mom put me on pills. In a way, I was glad because I loved my life too much to have to deal with a child back then. I stopped taking my pills consistently right after the last argument we had about Trice.
