Good O'l Ghetto - Episode 3

I can get past this, I thought to myself. I walked slowly past Jaden telling him give me a few I'll be right with him. He nodded and I picked up speed in my walking. When I got to Deja, I hugged her gently, took her by the hand and went to the opposite side of the club. Once we got there, I turned to look at her gorgeous green eyes and said, "Don't take this the wrong way mami, but um of all days to hit up Hot Cocoa, what made you come here today?"

She caressed the back of my hand, moved closer to me and said, "I missed you and I wanted to see what was always so special about Club Hot Cocoa." I gave a half smile and said, "The club be thumping, aside from that, I just like to have a get away spot ya know. I mean I love you and all mami, you know that but we can't be up under each other 24/7. Your outlet is shopping and mine is dancing outside of my job that is.”
“Yea, I know that Diva, I get the feeling it’s something you don’t want me to see.” She said looking around.
“Are you serious? So, like I thought you are here to see if I’m messing around. Have I ever betrayed your trust?” I asked looking in her eyes.
“No, you haven’t...” I cut her off.
“Then what the hell is this? You wanna stay to have fun then do that but don’t come up in the spot I go to for an outlet against my hectic days to spy on me. You wanna know something, you already know to just ask.”
“I just wanted to see what the fuss was about.” She said looking away. I looked at her, I already know what she was trying to do, she play this game enough for me to know but tonight I’m on a mission so I’m not about to fall into her game.
“Bae, meet me at home. I’ll be there in about an hour.” She looked at me, rolled her eyes, looked around.
“Yea, ight ma.” I reached in to give her a kiss, she turned and walked away, while my lips puckered up to the air. I shook my head. I knew she was upset but I wasn’t playing her game. If you can trust me at the strip club then trust me when I’m out to chill shit.

I stood back and watched her leave the club, then walked to the front of the club and watched her get in her Cherry red Sonata and drive off. Cocoa was looking at me like I was crazy. “Everything aight?” She asked.
“Yep everything is all good.” I laughed and walked back over to Jaden. He sat in the back with two drinks on the table, one for him and one for me. I sat down next to him and crossed my legs. I looked at the drinks and then him.

“Is one of those mine?” I asked.
“Yea, I saw you sipping on a Apple Martini so I ordered you one.”
“Now, I’m sure you know I’m not drinking that. No offense to you or anything but I don’t drink anything I didn’t see come my way from people I do not know. Sorry you spent your money but I’ll order another.”
“Yea, you right, my fault. Go head order another its on me.” I ordered my drink while we sat back and chatted it up.

“So, tell me why are you single Ms. Diva?” Jaden asked me flashy that signature smile of his. I laughed.
“Who said I was?”
“Well, you are here with me right?”
“And? Like I told you, from what I hear you are not single, maybe I’m like you.” He laughed, and nodded.
“Like me huh?”
“Ya damn right. Let’s be real shall we? You may not be claiming no chicks but I’m willing to put money on the fact that chicks is claiming you so who are we kidding? You say you are single but the chicks you sexing down each night gon tell it otherwise.” I said with a smile, picked up my Tequila sunrise and took a sip.
“Damn ma, it’s like that?:”
“I’m not your typical female, Jay R. So you’re regular lines, and game tactics ain’t gon work on me.” I laughed with a bit of cockiness. I know he running his regular run of the mill games but I need to let this dude know, I’m no regular chick. Let’s not get it twisted lawd, he can get it but that shit ain’t gon be easy. This pretty boy need to go hard or go home either way, I got a chick looking like a bag of money at home waiting on me.
“I already told you ma, I don’t run game. I don’t need to. I see what I want and I like and I go for it. Some call it the gift of gab, I call it a simple conversation. I’m tryna get to know Divaria.” He smiled. I laughed. He’s good I’ll give it to him. It’s time for me to cut this short, leave this dude wondering. One thing he ain’t gon like is thinking there is one that got away, so I’m going to do just that.
“Look Jay I gotta run, hope you have a great night. I’ll catch you again sometime.” I said as I stood up and walked over to my girls, saying my good nights to them and heading home to give my girl the business, cause Jaden got me all hot and bothered.

While in my Pearly pink colored Fiat 500 heading over the Brooklyn Bridge I dialed Deja on speaker phone. She let the phone ring 4 times before she picked it up which meant she was mad. I laughed to myself because the shit is so sexy to me plus she is not gon be mad for long.
“Yea?” She answered.
“Yea? What the hell? That’s the greeting I get?”
“Yes Diva?”
“Oh now I’m Diva? Aight I got you. Are you home?” I asked
“Yep.”
“Aight I’m on my way.”
“Oh you done shaking your ass? Now you got time?”
“Come’on mami don’t act like that.”
“You made me leave the club so you must be hiding something.”
“First off, I didn’t make you leave shit. I told you if you gon stay to have fun then do that but not to be spying on me especially when I ain’t never give you a reason to think I was doing anything.”
“Whatever Diva.”
“You tripping hard, I ain’t gotta come your way I can take my caramel ass home and get in my own damn bed.” Now it wasn’t sexy anymore, now it was just pissing me off. Granted I was tryna get the hook up with Jaden but I didn’t do anything. I’ve never cheated on Deja and she knows that shit, now she on some insecure shit and I’m really not in the mood for it because she is about to blow my buzz.
“Aight Diva do what you please, don't even know why you still got that other apartment anyway when you call my place home.” She said dryly.
“Fine by me and I got it for times like this when you straight tripping.” I hung up and changed my route. I was taking my ass home, don’t have time for foolishness. Soon as I parked my car in front of my house my cell rung, I looked at the caller ID but did not recognize the telephone number. Normally I do not answer calls I don’t know but this one had me curious. I pressed answer on my IPhone and said, “Hello?”
“What was it you were saying about my game?” The familiar voice on the other end of the phone said with a chuckle.
