twenty-five part two

"Sorry. I didn't know you two were having sex. It's usually louder." Asia mumbled innocently.

Running his hand down his face, he sighed heavily. He was stressing. "What you want?"

"Uncle Ry is here."

Cassius stood up and walked past Asia, leaving the room. Asia stayed in her place for a minute holding eye contact with Mackenzie. Weirded out and confused, Mackenzie mugged the little girl. "What?!" She quizzed in a rude voice, reaching over for the bag of pork skins on the night stand. "Staring n'shit."

"I know you slapped my brother and if my daddy finds out, he's going to slap you." Asia sassed, looking her up and down in disgust.

"I didn't slap your damn brother. Learn how to stop walking in and getting in grown folk's business. I'm fucking Cassius, not you. Get out."

Asia shrilled angrily and stomped out the room. She hurried down the stairs and reached her father who was sitting at the table with Ryan. They looked to be in a deep conversation but she didn't care. She was more important then anything they had to talk about. "Daddy! Daddy!" She tugged at his arm to get his attention. "Mackenzie said rude stuff to me and she slapped Cai. Daddy, she slapped Cai!"

Cassius who wasn't listening to a word she had said, shook her off his arm. "Go to bed Asia! You have school in the morning." He yelled, making Asia's face drop in sadness.

"But daddy-"

"But nothing, move ya' ass." He viciously spat at her, glaring at her in complete annoyance before turning back to his conversation with Ryan. "Anyways nigga what the fuck you mean Darius been starting his own business."

Asia blinked and tears fell unkownigly. She quietly walked back to her bedroom and cried herself to sleep. Mackenzie really was taking her father from her. And if Caius didn't do anything about it tonight, she was.

"Darius tryna start some new crack epidemic. He got some connect or something that can put some new chemicals in the shit make it brand new and better. He finna be getting hella dough."

Cassius shook his head quickly, his fist to his chin and his leg shaking. "Ain't no nigga bout to be bigger than me in my own city, you hear me?" He shouted at Ryan. Ryan raised both hands in innocence. "That's all Darius." Ryan said, a sly smile on his face.

"Man fuck that! I'ma kill his ass. We supposed to grow together, not do this shit on our own! Fuck he thought this was!" Cassius stood up and started to pace the kitchen, his anger getting the best of him. "If it ain't one thing, it's a mother fucking 'nother."

Mackenzie quietly entered, her steps slow and small. She had heard him shout from up the stairs and wanted to check on him. She needed him to be okay when he came back up to give her some dick. "Maurice.... baby, what's wrong?" She stepped closer to him, trying to hug him.

Pushing her roughly, Mackenzie's back hit the refrigerator with a loud impact. Ryan's eyes widened in amusement, he didn't think he was going to get a whole soap opera when he stopped by. "Move back bitch. Go back up stairs like you supposed to. You know better." He shoved his finger in her face, demanding her.

"And what the fuck you looking at?!" Cassius boomed at Ryan. Ryan nor Mackenzie noticed Ryan's eyes lower to her backside but Cassius did. Cassius noticed everything.

"N- Nothing man." Ryan quickly covered himself and stood. He grabbed his hat, sticking it on his head. "I'ma go. See you fam."

Cassius and Mackenzie had started to argue as he let the house feeling accomplished. What nobody knew was that Ryan was the one who was starting his own, making a new for himself in the streets, he was going to become the new king and the heir to his throne was going to be trained as well. No more of these mentally ill niggas running shit. He chuckled and hopped in his car, drifting down the road.
