The Life Of A Stripper

chapter 16 - Blast From The Past

"Kelsey." I heard Sade yell.

"Bring yo ass here." He grabbed my arm.

"Let me go." I yanked away.

"So you done with over some bullshit."

"Nigga you is the bullshit." I said walking away.

Getting in the car we were waiting on Jenney since she was talking to Shawn.

"Jenney come on." I yelled on the verge of tears.

Shawn said a few more things to her before she nodded and walked to the car.

As soon as we got in the car I began crying my heart out.

"Its okay." Jenney said getting in the backseat with me.

"I can't believe him." Morgan said.

"I love him." I sobbed. "What am I gonna do ?"

"You have to rid yourself of everything concerning him."

"I'm pregnant." I cried harder.

"I saw that coming." Morgan said.

"You keeping the baby right ?"

My silence answered her question.

I had to rid myself of him like she said and I was starting with his baby.

Jenney Beign.

I laid there on my bed thinking of today events.

How could Kelsey kill that innocent child?

Was Shawn really going to change for me?

My thoughts were interrupted by knocking.

Going to the door I immediately opened thinking it was Shawn.

Opening the door I was met with the man I had been running from for two years. The father of my son.

"Hey baby." He said harshly.

"W-what are you doing here ?" I stuttered.

"You miss me ?" He said forcing his way into the apartment.

"How'd you know I was here ?" I asked nervously.

"You didn't think I wouldn't figure out that you and Quez took my son."

"He's my son."

"You thought you could run from me ?" He chuckled.

"Pedro."

"Yes."

"What do you want with me ?" I questioned.

"Quez owes me a girl." He stated.

"What does that have to do with me ?"

"Quez has always been your partner so you help him."

"I'm done with that life." I mumbled.

"You help him or I take Jayden back."

"You'll never take him."

"I know exactly where he is I could go get him now."

"Who's the girl ?" I mumbled.

"Names Morgan Smith, stripper name Cinnamon."

My heart dropped. "I c-can't."

"Oh you can and you will."

"I paid my debt to you."

"But Quez didn't."

"I don't work with him anymore." I yelled out of frustration.

"Your just a selfish bitch like you've always been."

"I have a son."

"That Quez helped you get back." He snapped.

"Okay, I'll do it.

"I knew you would."

"But after this I'm done." I snapped.

"Your done when I'm done with you." He laughed.

He began walking to the door. As soon as he opened the door there stood Shawn.

"Bye Jen." Pedro said kissing my cheek.

When he got to the elevator he turned and winked at me I sighed.

"So." I said.

"Man I ain't trying to get back with you so you can fuck with other niggas."

"Its not what you think."

"Then why was he here ?"

"I really can't say and its best if you don't know."

"You fuckin' him ?"

"No, he is a dangerous man though."

"Why was he here ?"

"I can't say."

"Say or we're done."

"He's an old friend that's it." I pleaded.

"When you ready to tell the truth hit me up." He said then walked away.

I walked in my apartment and call Quez.

"Pedro just paid me a visit." I said.

"So you in or out."

"We gotta find another way."

"Ain't no way around it."

"I'm in, but we gotta do this right." I sighed.

"You can't hold on to the friendship after this." Quez said.

"I know." I sighed.

"So what's the plan ?"

"I always was the brains behind it all." I laughed.

I couldn't escape my pass so I had to embrace it.
