Rhonda Meets Ramie

Scene 40

Ladies night at Busties. One of the hottest nights of week, every week. The woman were fierce as usual. Dressed to impress or dressed to score, it was anybody’s guess. Drinks were half price, lap dance’s were free, and the exotic dancer’s were in full effect. It was a decent money maker night for the club. Yah-Yah always added her special touch. Each week a different theme kept the ladies coming back for more. Tonight’s theme was The Cat Walk. The dancer’s showed up early in their best costumes. It was everything from belly dancer’s, nurses, french maids and even sexy studs in uniform. Ladies night was a signature event and every woman on the south side was out it seemed.
Angie arrived shortly after 9:30. Yah-Yah had already reserved 3 tables for Rhonda’s party. All Angie had to do was tape some streamer’s along the edges of the tables and blow up a few balloons. She made sure everything was just right as she positioned the chairs in front of the stage. They had a perfect view and Yah Yah made sure they would damn near be able to touch the ladies on stage. When all the small details were taken care of of, Angie took a breather in the bathroom. She touched up her make up and made sure her hair was still in place. She made sure to check her gun in the bathroom as well. She decided at the last minute to bring it, just in case.
A few minutes before 10:00 Kay-Kay arrives looking like she just stepped out of a magazine. Angies face lite up as she embraced one of her closest friends.
“Looking good girl!” Angie gushed.
“Well, you know…I do try.”
“I’m loving this new thing your doing with your hair!”
“Yah, well, if I get lucky, I don’t have to worry about fucking it up.”
“OK!”
The two friends shared a few laughs and started ordering drinks from the bar. Shortly after 10:00 four more friends had arrived. Mostly Rhonda’s co-worker’s and another friend from college. Kay-Kay was checking out the scene and giving everyone the once over. It has been weeks since she had been out and she was determined to have one hell of good time tonight.
“So girl…you doing alright, you know with that whole Maxine thing?” Kay asked.
“Girl, I’m alright. Just as long as that bitch know I will blow her fucking knee cap off, we’ll be alright!” Angie was screaming in Kay’s ear over the music.
“It’s good to know you can joke about it!”
“Who said I was joking?” Angie ran her finger’s across her handbag feeling the solid piece inside.
“Yeah, OK Charlie’s Angel. I’m gonna run to the bathroom and check my make-up!”
“I’ll come with you.”
Angie and Kay got up and excused themselves while Rhonda’s co-workers chatted about a little joke they were going to play on her tonight. When they got to the bathroom, they ran into a couple of dancer’s.
“Have Mercy Lord, these women be fine up in here!” Angie said while twirling her neck.
“Talk about a booty call!” Kay smiled devilishly as she touched up the make-up around her eyes.
Back up front Yah Yah was counting in the money and seperating the bigger bills when Maxine stepped up.
“How much?” Maxine said.
“Ten for tonight Sweetness.”
“Alright….” Maxine handed her a twenty and waited for her change.
“So, you here for the party?”
“What party?”
“Over there. Some chick name Rhonda birthday tonight.”
“Nope. Just checking out the scene.” Maxine smiled and took her change. She walked through the door and scanned the room. No one looked familiar so decided to grab a seat in the back.
Ramie arrived at 10:30 with Rhonda’s cake. She was praying that Rhonda was not already there. Her eyes darted back and forth across the smoked filled room. She saw the balloons up front so headed in that direction. Angie and Kay were coming out the bathroom right when Ramie got to the table.

“Hey! Sorry I was running late. “ Ramie reached out and hugged Angie.
“Girl, it’s cool, she not here yet.”
“Oh good!”
“Ramie, this is Kay. I didn’t know you two got the chance to meet yet…”
“Hi, yes I remember you. Good to see you again. Thanks for coming.” Ramie’s smile was warm and welcoming. She felt good to be meeting some of Rhonda’s closest friends.
“And over here we have, Shelly, Stacy, Brooke and Ciara.”
“Hello everyone.” Ramie shook their hands.
“So, where is our little birthday girl?” Kay interjected.
“She’ll be here. She had to stop at her mom’s. You know how that is.” Ramie said.
“O God, have you met Rhonda’s Mom yet? Honey, she is a hoot! Will talk your ear off and have you busting your side!” Angie said.
“I heard about her. But I have not had the chance to meet her yet.” Ramie said.
“Well Honey just wait! She is cool as hell.” Kay said.
“So, um, Ramie…tell us the scoop girl!”
“About?”
“Girl, quit playing! I want to know what’s up with you and my girl!” Angie was busting at the seams to find out the latest.
“O, well, we are doing good.” Ramie was blushing.
“Details! Details!” Angie said.
“Yes…tell us the details….” Kay placed her elbows on the table smiling.
“Well, you know we have been spending quite a bit of time together. I’m so glad we met you know. She is really special.”
“Aww!” Angie and Kay were in unison while they clapped their hands. Ramie was blushing so much she had to get up from the table and get a drink.
“See, I told you she fine girl! Just fine!” Angie snapped her fingers in a ‘Z’ formation.
“Yah, she is a looker alright.” Kay said as she watched Ramie at the bar.
“Uh-Uh, OK, here we go. Now don’t panic.” Angie watched as Treece came in with Kelly.
“What girl? What?”
“There go Treece.” Angie flagged them over to the table.
Kay had to catch herself. It was one thing getting over everything that Treece had done. It was another thing to see her with another woman.
“Who is the Hoochie this time.”
“Girl, some Detective.” Angie whispered.
“Detective? What the hell is she doing with a Detective? Her damn drug dealer ass!” Kay rolled her eyes. She wondered to herself if Treece was still dealing. Treece had always tried to sheild the truth from Kay, but just like with everything else, Kay knew what was up.
“Girl…shhh…I’ll tell you about it later. Just be cool. Be cool.” Angie was tapping Kay under the table.
“Hey!” Angie said. Kay looked at her and wondered why her voice changed suddenly to Valley Girl.
“What’s up Peoples!” Treece grabbed Angie and hugged her tight.
“Girl, you know you look good tonight. Sit down. Sit on down now!” Angie sounded like somebody’s grandmother this time.
“How you doing Kay….?” Treece said.
“Hello.” Kay said. She was keeping all conversations short and sweet.
“Um, everybody, this is Kelly.” Treece put her arm around Kelly and adjusted her collar.”
“It’s so good to meet you.” Angie was beaming.
“Hello.” Kay said. Short and sweet.
“So um, baby you want something from the bar?” Treece whispered to Kelly.
“Make it strong.”
“Be right back.” Treece got up and scanned the room. She did a double take toward the back because she thought she had seen Maxine. When she looked again, she realized she was wrong.

Back up front, Yah-Yah notices that Dana has not arrived. ‘Just like this hefer to be late when we got a full house!’ She walked to the back and asked a few of the dancer’s if they saw Dana and everyone said no. Before she walks back up front Melinda comes out the bathroom wrapped in a towel.
“Have you seen Dana tonight?” Yah-Yah voice was stern.
“No, do I look like her keeper?”
“Look I just asked since you two are so close…” Yah-Yah smirked.
Sheena was in the corner rubbing oil on her legs when she heard that little comment.
“I’m not Dana’s keeper alright. Don’t you got her damn number?”
“Whatever Melinda. Don’t get pissy.”
Yah-Yah walked from the back and went up to the bar to have one of the bartender’s call Dana’s cell.
“Let me know if that Ho picks up!”
Melinda unwrapped her towel and slipped on a black thong. She looked in her purse and grabbed her cell then dialed Dana’s number. There was no answer, so she just left a message.
“So what was that all about?” Sheena asked.
“Excuse me?” Melinda’s eyebrow was raised.
“What the hell was Yah-Yah talking about with Dana?”
“Shit. I don’t know. You know how she is, always frantic and shit.”
“Yah, but she asked you directly. I didn’t know you and Dana were tight like that.” Sheena arms were crossed.
“I didn’t know I was supposed to report to your bitch ass either. Now get the fuck out of my face.” Melinda put her hand up.
“Watch it Ho!”
“No! You watch it! Bitch!” Melinda stood up.
“LADIES! LADIES! What ya’ll about to get into it about Dana for? She done fucked a few people in here. Not just ya’ll.” One of the dancer’s said.
“I just don’t need this bitch in my face asking me a bunch of fucking questions!” Melinda’s neck was going back and forth.
“Whatever bitch!”
“Yah, whatever!”

Eleven fifteen arrives and still no sign of Rhonda. Ramie is now concerned. She figured that Rhonda would be a little late, but not this late. She goes outside and dials her cell. The voicemail picks up so she leaves a short message, then calls the house. Still no answer. Just to make sure, she calls her house to see if Rhonda was there. They had exchanged keys and Rhonda may have stopped by for something since her mother lived up north as well. She didn’t get a answer. She clutched her purse and looked around the parking lot and down the street.
“Hey…anything?” Angie said coming outside.
“Nothing. I hope nothing is wrong.”
“I’m sure she is fine. I’m telling you, she still at her mother’s house.”
“Do you have that number?”
“Yah. But not on me. I got my club purse girl. Don’t worry. She’ll be here.” Angie put her arm around Ramie and walked her back inside. Once Ramie was comfortable, Angie went to bathroom for some tissue. She stopped in her tracks when she saw Maxine standing at the mirror. Before she could turn around to walk out, Maxine had already caught a glimps of her. They were alone.
“Baby….Hey! What you doing here?” Maxine said smiling wide.
“It’s a free country.”
“Well, yes it is. I see there is party tonight. If memory serves me correct, it’s Rhonda’s birthday.”
“Yep.” Angie rolled her eyes as she walked in the stall.
“And I wasn’t invited? Now why is that?” Maxine’s arms were crossed.
“Save it Maxine.” Angie felt her brow start to sweat. She had left her purse at the table.
“Baby…why didn’t you let me in? How could you do that to me? It was so cold that day too. You act as if you don’t even care.”
“Because I don’t.”
“That's a lie!” Maxine snapped and moved closer.
“Look Maxine…I’m only gonna say this shit once, if you come any closer to me, I’m going to break your fucking neck! You hear me?”
“Ha!” Maxine laughed.
“Fucking lunatic bitch!” Angie walked out of the bathroom. She was fuming now. She could deal with the tension between her friends for the night, but Maxine was a whole different story. When she got back to the table, she could not hide her frustration.
“What wrong Ma?” Treece asked.
“Maxine is here!” Angie put her head in her hands.
“Did that Ho say anything to you? Where the fuck she at?” Treece stood up and Kelly pulled her back in her seat.
“Baby please…not tonight” Kelly voice was calm.
“Man, this fucking slut! She better not start no shit tonight I swear I’ll choke that fucking ho!”
Kay-Kay stared at Treece and watched her snap. The one thing that would never change about Treece is that she will always have her friends back. No matter what.
Maxine walked out the bathroom and everyone looked in her direction. Treece put her hand in air in the shape of gun and moved her lips. ‘Rock-a-bye bitch’. Maxine stuck up her middle finger and and blew a kiss at Angie.
“This is so fucking ridiculous!” Kelly was amazed at the display going on at the table.
“That is a mutha fucking Monster. She need to be put out her fucking misery, but I aint trying to mess up my suit.” Treece said as she flicked off some imaginary dirt from her shoulder.

Scene 39

At the last minute, Kay-Kay made up her mind to go the Rhonda's birthday party. In her heart, she had hoped that she would forgive her for the relationship with Treece. Angie was right, they all needed to move on. Rhonda was happy now in her new relationship and Kay was almost certain that she was not holding a grudge. Kay had even forgiven Treece and in her heart, she wished her well. Tonight was about friendship and forgiveness. It was about all of them picking up the pieces and starting over. Kay knew that. She wanted to celebrate, get her dance on and check out all the sexy ladies on stage. Nothing else even matterd at this point. Kay decided she would wear her favorite brown skirt with a matching sweater, and brown boots. She pulled her hair back off her face and smoothed it just so, added some jel and secured it in a tight bun. Her make-up was natural and she accented her look with long dangling earrings and a matching bracelet. She stood back in the mirror and looked at herself up and down. Perfect. She smiled in the mirror and watched her eyes light up. Meanwhile back at Rhonda's, Ramie was busy in the downstairs bathroom wrapping a gift. She had went out the night before and picked up a ½ ca. bracelet. She opened up the box and looked at the piece one more time before she placed it on the paper. Beautiful. Ramie's feelings had grown even more intense. They had been spending all their nights together, falling asleep in each arms then rushing off to work the next day. This was Ramie's life, and she loved it. She was so happy and Rhonda had fulfilled every desire that she had. There love was like no other. Ramie thought to herself the bracelet was not enough so she peeked her head outside the bathroom door and since the coast was clear, she made arrangements at the Rockafellor Plaza Hotel. She reserved the Honeymoon Suite for Saturday and Sunday, then arranged for a limo to pick them up and escort them to and from the Hotel. The last call she made was to Angie. Keeping Rhonda's party on the hush had been a task for allinvolved. Angie was doing a wonderful job with the planning but they all were busting at the seams to spill the news. Ramie confirmed that she would be at Busties by 10:00 and that Rhonda would be there no later than 10:30. She assured Angie that Rhonda still did not suspect a thing, tied up a few loose ends and hung up. After all the plans were in place, she put a small bow on the box and tip toed out the bathroom. She heard Rhonda in the shower so she went upstairs to put the box in her handbag for safe keeping. She then laid her red suit out on the bed and ran her fingers across the fine thread. Tonight was going to be perfect. "Hey Baby…what you doing?" Rhonda said standing there in her towel. "Oo! You scared me girl!" Ramie laughed. "Mmmmhmm…I know you doing something." "No, no, no baby…just getting my cloths together for tonight." "Yah, OK. I hope you not planning no wild party or nothing. I just want to be with you." Rhonda blushed. "Baby, I'm not planning anything. You are one that has the plans." "Yes, well I just have to stop by my mom's. She said she had something for me and I know she will have me there chatting it up for a few hours." Rhonda said as she put her arms around Ramie's waist giving it a tight squeez. "I understand. Just don't be too long, ok Boo?" "I will be there by 10:30 for sure…promise." Rhonda winked. "OK. Well you better get dressed…." Ramie looked deep into Rhonda eyes. "Yes, I better." ****9:00pm Friday Night**** Treece and Kelly were on their way out the door. Treece had to step back and look at herself twice in the mirror. "Damn, I'm fine!" "I swear, you head just swells by the week!" Kelly laughed. "But you gotta admit, I'm fine. Aint I Boo?" Treece ran her hands across her new black suit. Turning her body around looking at her backside in the mirror. "Yes…Baby…you're fine." Kelly said rolling her eyes. Treece did look good in black, Kelly had to admit it to herself. "Baby, you sure you want to go tonight? We can still cancel." "Naw. We going. I want to see Angie and the rest of the crew. If Rhonda and Kay want to act a fool, I'll just walk away." "Okayyy…." Kelly said with a concerned look. "Besides, this give me the chance to show off my Lady. " "Yah, you better let be known. I don't want to have to start no stuff with you tonight." "Whatever." Treece waved her hand. "So Baby, how do I look?" "Like a million fucking bucks girl! Damn! You make me wanna lay you down and sop you up with biscuit!" Treece said, sounding like she was from the deep south. "You play too much!" Kelly smiled. "Naw, straight up Boo. I'm lucky. I'm the luckiest woman in the world." Treece kissed Kelly softly on her cheek. "Ummm, that's more like it." "After you…." Treece held out her arm as Kelly walked out the door.

Scene 38

It had been two weeks since Maxine paid Angie a visit. Far too long in Maxine's eyes. This day she was bound and determined to speak to her and settle their differences. Maxine had given her all the space she needed, now was time to let the past be and move on with their lives, together. It was early Friday morning. The sun was bright and the leaves on the ground blew softly across the yards in Hyde Park. Maxine thought to herself how pretty they were. She missed waking up every morning to the peace and quiet. She had missed Angie. These last few weeks away had taken their toll. Sleeping at her cousin Cassandra's had been a total drag. Maxine felt like she was living with her mother. Her and Cassandra were always fighting and Maxine knew that her cousin would never understand the love she felt for Angie. No one did. It didn't matter though. Maxine was home. She had taken a cab over and once in front of Angie's house the driver helped her with her bags in the trunk. Maxine inhaled the crisp morning air and smiled to herself. Thanking the driver, she picked her two suitcases and walked to the front door. Angie heard knocking at the door so she rolled out of bed, grabbed her robe, then quickly ran the down the stairs. When she looked out the peephole, she couldn't believe it was Maxine. She blinked her eyes a couple of times to focus then she walked to the kictchen calmly and grabbed a small metal box from the drawer. She reached for her keys on the wall and unlocked the box revealing the small handgun inside. Maxine knocked again, this time a little louder then called her name. Angie ignored her while she checked the gun meticulously. Bullets in place. Safety. Hand perfectly positioned. Finger on the trigger. She was ready. Angie walked back to the front door and looked out the peephole without saying a word. Maxine called her name as she knocked again, harder this time. "I know you in there. I see the car." Maxine said as she looked down the street at Angie's burgundy Camry. "What do you want Maxine!" "I'm home baby…let me in." Maxine said smiling. "Go back to where the hell you came from Maxine. You know you don't live here." "Baby please…it's early, I came just in time for breakfast. What we having today? Omelet's? Pancakes?" "Go away Maxine. I will call the police." "Baby…you not gon' call no po-po's, so quit playing. Now we have had our differences, but it's over now. I miss you baby. I got my bags and everything. Come on open the door." Maxine's eyes darted back and forth and she reached down and tried to turn the door knob. She jiggled it hard and fast. "Step away from my door Maxine. It's not happening today." Angie's hands began to sweat as she watched the door knob move back and forth. Maxine had too much nerve for her own good but today, if she had too, Angie was going to end this. "Please baby…I don't want to fight….I didn't come here for all of that. I want us to start over. To talk, you know? Please Angie." Maxine didn't hear a sound. She knocked a couple of times and still, there was no answer. Determined not to give up she decided to walk around to the back to see if Angie was in the kitchen. She left her bags in front and proceeded to walk down the narrow trail to back of the building. She caught a glimps of a nieghbor leaving for work and waved. The man looked right at her and rolled his eyes. She smiled like she belonged and walked up the back steps. Angie was no where to be seen but Maxine knocked anyway. Inside, Angie cocked her head and sighed in disgust. She decided that she would not speak another word. What else needed to be said? Angie knew that if Maxine got in the house, she was going to shoot her. It was just as simple as that. She was within her rights. It would end as quickly as it began. Maxine peered inside the window for any sign of movement. When there was none she calmly walked back to the front of the house to the front door. She tried to see inside the front window but couldn't. She knocked again and called Angie's name, no answer. She picked up a small rock and tossed it at the window, no response. She sat idle and waited for Angie to walk out, she never came. Two hours had passed and Maxine had caught a chill. Her knuckles were a slight red from knocking on the heavy door. Her lips were cracked and her feet were like icesicles. She picked up her suitcases and walked down to the end of the street to the bus stop. A tear fell from her right eye and stained her cheek, but it wasn't over. `It's not over until I say it is.' Angie looked outside the front window and once again watched as Maxine walked down the street. She waited for the bus to come and watched as Maxine got on. When the bus pulled off, Angie put the gun back in the metal box, locked it and placed it carefully back in the drawer. She made a pot of fresh coffee the went back upstairs to find something to wear for Rhonda's birthday party that night.

Scene 37

After Treece left that morning, Angie made calls to ADT like she promised and scheduled a consultant to stop by within the following day. She felt secure already. However, against her better judgment, she was getting that gun. She couldn't believe that she saw Maxine lurking around this morning. What the hell was doing anyway? And how long had she been on her street? Angie knew she didn't spend the night with anyone because she had no friends in the neighborhood. Whatever fueled Maxine to continue on this ridiculous stalker routine, Angie had enough. It was time she protected herself. After cleaning up the kitchen, she decided to make the calls for Rhonda's birthday. The first person on her list was Kay-Kay. She never missed a party, but Angie had a feeling that this was going to be harder to plan than previous years."Hey Girl, how you doing?" Angie's smile could be heard through the phone."Hey you! I'm hanging in there. What's up?""Well, you know…Rhonda's birthday is coming up…I wanted to plan a night out at Busties. What you think?""Sounds cool. But umm, you know damn well Rhonda don't want to be bothered with me.""Don't say that. She was just mad. I think that all this has blown over.""How you figure?" Kay's eyebrow went up."She all caught up with this new woman ramie. She is not thinking about the past I'm sure.""Well good for her.""You guys need to move on…all of you. Including Treece.""I'm sure she has already moved on." Kay snapped."Kay look, we all gotta be there for each other. We were friends before. I don't see why we cannot try to work this out. Life is too short you know.""I hear you Angie. I will think about it.""Promise?""Yes. When is this little party anyway?""Next weekend. They are doing a special Ladies night on Friday. Bringing in some dancers from DC I hear.""Sounds like fun." Kay said dryly."Well, look you think about it OK. It would mean the world to me if you came.""Alright, I'll talk to you soon."Kay hung up the phone and wondered to herself how she was going to get through the night with Treece all in her face. She was defiantly not ready to deal with seeing her no time soon. Rhonda either for that matter.Angie checked off Kay from her mental list and decided to give Ramie a call on her cell. She knew that Ramie would probably be with Rhonda but all she needed was a few seconds to tell her the plans and confirm her attendance. When she dialed Ramie's number, she got a voice mail so she left a message and told her to give her call. Angie finished the friends list and touched bases with six other friends that they all knew. Smiling to herself, she knew that this was going to be a great night for Rhonda. Just what she needed, a new woman and good friends.Later on that afternoon, Treece returned with good news. Even though she did decide to leave the city for a while, she felt a positive vibe about Kelly. She was smiling."We're going to be in Hoffman Estates.""That's not too far…I can come visit.""You better.""Try and stop me." Angie smiled."So did you call ADT?""Yes. They will be out tomorrow to look at the windows and doors and give me an estimate.""Good. Well, I got something for you." Treece grabbed her duffel bag and pulled out a small handgun wrapped in a towel. It was a silver .22 with a pearl handle."I never thought I would see the day when a gun would be in my house.""I never thought I'd see the day when you would have a fucking nutcase stalking you. As you can see, the day has arrived.""Shut up Treece. You so damn silly!""Honey, let me tell you…this is only a .22, alright. It aint like you can blow this bitch head off but you stop her in her tracks. You feel me?""Yah…I got it."Treece put the gun in Angie's hand and watched her study it closely. If she had her way, she would slice Maxine's throat herself.

Scene 36

After breakfast, Treece called Kelly and asked her to meet her at their usual spot. The Amber Inn, that's were it always down. She had made her choice. Angie watched nevously as she made the call."Are you coming back today?" Angie said."Yes, and I'll bring that piece with me. So you make sure you lock all doors.""I will.""Call ADT too while I'm out and get an estimate. Tell them you need them to come out here ASAP, alright?""I will. Listen, don't you worry about me. You handle this mess. Call me if you need me...."Treece hugged her friend and jumped in the car and speeded off. She was about to find out if Kelly was a woman of her word, or if this was just some ploy. Her hands were wet with sweat on the steering wheel and she kept telling herself over and over...'I'll beat this shit!' When she pulled into the Amber Inn, Kelly was already sitting in car waiting. When she saw Treece pull up, she walked inside and left the room door ajar. One thing that Treece knew about Kelly, she never changed. Treece had to find out for herself if that was a good thing or a bad thing."What's up." Treece said as she walked into the room looking around."Morning." Kelly was dressed in a all black suit with a purple blouse. She unhooked her jacket and took off her gun and badge and laid them on the dresser."How you doing Treece?""I could do better. But let's skip the small talk.""OK...then...have you made you decision?""Has any of the terms changed? I mean Kelly, how am I supposed to know this is all true? How am I supposed to know that you are telling me the truth?""I have no reason to lie to you anymore...I have the evidence right here." Kelly reached under the bed and pulled out a black suitcase with all of Treece's files. She popped it open and pulled out Treece's picture's, and photo's of drug deals that she had done. She laid the tapes on the bed along with a small recording device; then she laid out bag's of coke that she had purchased but never used. Treece picked up the photo's and recalled all the incidence's with the various clients in the pictures. She was still in shock and seeing it right in front of her made her head spin."Damnit...Kelly...""I do have some news for you.""If it's bad, I don't want ot know alright.""Not at all. This is actually good. The Congressman's wife is out of the coma, they expect her to make a full recovery.""Goody for her ass. Fucking dope fiend bitch!""No, goody for you Treece because you won't go down for murder. You need to stop with the tough girl act. This is serious.""Yah, yah. well I guess that is good to hear...so what's next?""Well, if you decide to lay low...all this disappears. Just like I agreed. I will take a leave of absense from the department until this dies down. It may die down quicker than we thought since the woman is better. The Congressman will be off the Chief's ass, and the Chief will be off everyone else's. This doesn't mean that they won't stop trying to find out where this came from, it just means that when I turn in my badge, they won't have the whole department gunning for you. We can hang up North for a little while. I got a place in Hoffman Estates. Two bedroom Condo. You agree to let all this shit go, keep your money, get a real job and change your life. It's that simple.""Fine.""So, your are fine with all of this...?" Kelly felt her heart skip a beat."I want to be there when you get rid of this shit. I want it burned.""Fine. No problem. We can actually take care of it up in Hoffman."Kelly reached out to Treece to rub her back. She breathed a sigh of relief."I do love you Treece.""I know Kelly. I know...."Treece put her head in her hands as Kelly moved closer."It's going to work out you just wait and see." Kelly said and she continued to stroke Treece's back."So, when do we leave?""You can leave tonight. I need a couple of days to tie up loose ends at the department. Is that OK?""Do what gotta do Kel..."Kelly embraced Treece and to her surprise Treece did not pull away. It felt good to hold her and ease her mind about all the madness. Treece felt slightly better as she buried her head in Kelly's chest."I don't want to leave you right now..." Kelly said."What's making you go?""Nothing....""Well then take off your shoes and relax a while...."Treece gave Kelly a half smile as she took off her own shoes. Kelly knew what that look meant and for the first time since they met, she knew that today was the day. She knew that this was the moment she could freely give herself to Treece and not have any lies hanging over her head. Treece had finally knew the truth and she was free to love her with her whole heart. Kelly was not sure if Treece would ever feel the love that Kelly had felt all these months, but she knew that Treece did feel something. Right now that was enough. She unbuttoned her blouse quickly as Treece pushed her back on the bed. She was agressive, domineering, ready to take full control. She unzipped her dress pants and pulled them down over Kelly knees. Kelly didn't resists as she pushed her hips up so the pants would slide off easily. Treece spread her legs and kissed her thighs hungrily. Kelly's scent turned her on as she ran her tongue across her already wet thong. Kelly leaned back deep in the folds of sheets and pinched her nipples. Treece licked her everywhere. Her kisses were passionate and sensual as she trailed her lips along Kelly's smooth body. She payed careful attention as she licked and kissed her everywhere, sometimes going back up and starting again. Kelly's soft moans turned Treece on. She liked the fact that Kelly was totally submissive, her slave and subject. Her fingers trailed her body quickly with just enough roughness on Kelly's weak spots. Riping off the thong, unable to wait, Treece wrapped her lips around Kelly's love zone. Kelly begged and bucked as Treece's tongue darted in and out of her pussy. She screamed her name when Treece slipped her finger's inside, spreaded her open. Kelly's love spilled on the sheets in a mix heat and desire. She grabbed Treece's hair and pleaded for the moment to never end. Her climax exploaded like a bomb on the fourth of July as she sank deep in the sheets. Treece came too at the sight of Kelly's love. She moved her way up and straddled herself across Kelly flicking tongue. Treece held on tight to the bed rails as her body shook and rocked. Up and down, up and down she bounced her hips across Kelly's hungry tongue."Fuck me....ssss....Fuck me....God...fuck me!" Treece cried, holding on for her dear life.

Scene 35

Ramie rolled over and stretched her arm out to touch Rhonda. Realizing she wasn't there she rolled out bed and walked to the top of the stairs.

"Rhonda? Rhonda? Baby you down there?"

Thinking she was just downstairs and couldn't hear, Ramie decided to jump in the shower and get ready for another exciting day with her new love. She walked to the bathroom and discovered a note on the bathroom mirror.

Hello Gorgeous,
I went to the store to get us something special.

I'll be right back.
Love, Rhonda

Ramie smiled and started the shower. Once inside she let the warm water stream down the curves of her body. She was tierd from the night before but she felt revived. No other woman had made her feel the way Rhonda did and she was loving every moment of it. Part of her was afraid to move too fast, but the other part of her longed to be with her everyday. She wasn't sure if Rhonda felt the same way but before this week was over, she was going to find out.

"Hey Lover...."

Ramie peaked from behind the shower curtain, all smiles.

"There you are...I did even know you were gone!"

"I didn't want to wake you...."

"I see..."

"I got us some fresh fruit for breakfast and I'm making memosa's...."

"Oooo...early in the morning huh? I'm game! I'll be out in a second."

"Ok."

Ramie couldn't pinpoint it, but Rhonda had looked strange this morning. Alomost like she had been up all night. Ramie knew they had both had a wild night, but Rhonda was worn loooking. She steped out of the shower and figured it was just her morning look.

Once downstairs Ramie was surprised to find that Rhonda had cleaned up the entire front room and kitchen. She bought fresh flowers and placed them on the kitchen table and some more in front room. She placed elegant dishware on the table and added some crystal glasses that gave a wonderful effect. The napkins were neatly folded and there was a small red velvet box on the middle of one plate.

"What is all this?" Ramie blushed.

"It's breakfast for a Queen...."

Ramie smiled and she had to choke back a tear.

"This is so beautiful...you didn't have to do all this...I just don't know what to say."

"You don't have to say anything...."

Ramie walked up to Rhonda and wrapped her arms around her and held on tight. Rhonda could feel her exhale.

"Can I open it now?"

"Sure..."

Ramie picked up the small box and carefully took the ribbon off. She smiled at how neatly Rhonda had took the time to wrap it. When she pulled the top back her eyes lit up instantly.

"Baby... they are beautiful!"

"Not as beautiful as you...but they'll do."

"O...you! Can you put them on?"

"Sure...here let me..."

Rhonda carefully picked up one the shinny white gold hoops and slowly place it in Ramie's ear. Each hoop had a 1/2ca diamond in the center. They sparkled in the early morning light coming through the windows. Rhonda knew she had made a perfect choice as she carefully put in the other earring.

"There...they are beautiful on you."

Ramie ran to the bathroom and looked in the mirror.

"O God, I love them! I just love them Rhonda!"

Rhonda stepped up behind Ramie in the bathroom and wrapped her arms around her waist and smiled.

"Only the best for my Love...only the best."

Ramie turned around and touched Rhonda's face. Their lips found each other quickly, passionately. Breakfast would have to wait as the two walked from the bathroom and slid down to the floor. Ramie had her answer.

Scene 36

After breakfast, Treece called Kelly and asked her to meet her at their usual spot. The Amber Inn, that's were it always down. She had made her choice. Angie watched nevously as she made the call.

"Are you coming back today?" Angie said.

"Yes, and I'll bring that piece with me. So you make sure you lock all doors."

"I will."

"Call ADT too while I'm out and get an estimate. Tell them you need them to come out here ASAP, alright?"

"I will. Listen, don't you worry about me. You handle this mess. Call me if you need me...."

Treece hugged her friend and jumped in the car and speeded off. She was about to find out if Kelly was a woman of her word, or if this was just some ploy. Her hands were wet with sweat on the steering wheel and she kept telling herself over and over...'I'll beat this shit!' When she pulled into the Amber Inn, Kelly was already sitting in car waiting. When she saw Treece pull up, she walked inside and left the room door ajar. One thing that Treece knew about Kelly, she never changed. Treece had to find out for herself if that was a good thing or a bad thing.

"What's up." Treece said as she walked into the room looking around.

"Morning." Kelly was dressed in a all black suit with a purple blouse. She unhooked her jacket and took off her gun and badge and laid them on the dresser.

"How you doing Treece?"

"I could do better. But let's skip the small talk."

"OK...then...have you made you decision?"

"Has any of the terms changed? I mean Kelly, how am I supposed to know this is all true? How am I supposed to know that you are telling me the truth?"

"I have no reason to lie to you anymore...I have the evidence right here." Kelly reached under the bed and pulled out a black suitcase with all of Treece's files. She popped it open and pulled out Treece's picture's, and photo's of drug deals that she had done. She laid the tapes on the bed along with a small recording device; then she laid out bag's of coke that she had purchased but never used. Treece picked up the photo's and recalled all the incidence's with the various clients in the pictures. She was still in shock and seeing it right in front of her made her head spin.

"Damnit...Kelly..."

"I do have some news for you."

"If it's bad, I don't want ot know alright."

"Not at all. This is actually good. The Congressman's wife is out of the coma, they expect her to make a full recovery."

"Goody for her ass. Fucking dope fiend bitch!"

"No, goody for you Treece because you won't go down for murder. You need to stop with the tough girl act. This is serious."

"Yah, yah. well I guess that is good to hear...so what's next?"

"Well, if you decide to lay low...all this disappears. Just like I agreed. I will take a leave of absense from the department until this dies down. It may die down quicker than we thought since the woman is better. The Congressman will be off the Chief's ass, and the Chief will be off everyone else's. This doesn't mean that they won't stop trying to find out where this came from, it just means that when I turn in my badge, they won't have the whole department gunning for you. We can hang up North for a little while. I got a place in Hoffman Estates. Two bedroom Condo. You agree to let all this shit go, keep your money, get a real job and change your life. It's that simple."

"Fine."

"So, your are fine with all of this...?" Kelly felt her heart skip a beat.

"I want to be there when you get rid of this shit. I want it burned."

"Fine. No problem. We can actually take care of it up in Hoffman."

Kelly reached out to Treece to rub her back. She breathed a sigh of relief.

"I do love you Treece."

"I know Kelly. I know...."

Treece put her head in her hands as Kelly moved closer.

"It's going to work out you just wait and see." Kelly said and she continued to stroke Treece's back.

"So, when do we leave?"

"You can leave tonight. I need a couple of days to tie up loose ends at the department. Is that OK?"

"Do what gotta do Kel..."

Kelly embraced Treece and to her surprise Treece did not pull away. It felt good to hold her and ease her mind about all the madness. Treece felt slightly better as she buried her head in Kelly's chest.

"I don't want to leave you right now..." Kelly said.

"What's making you go?"

"Nothing...."

"Well then take off your shoes and relax a while...."

Treece gave Kelly a half smile as she took off her own shoes. Kelly knew what that look meant and for the first time since they met, she knew that today was the day. She knew that this was the moment she could freely give herself to Treece and not have any lies hanging over her head. Treece had finally knew the truth and she was free to love her with her whole heart. Kelly was not sure if Treece would ever feel the love that Kelly had felt all these months, but she knew that Treece did feel something. Right now that was enough.

She unbuttoned her blouse quickly as Treece pushed her back on the bed. She was agressive, domineering, ready to take full control. She unzipped her dress pants and pulled them down over Kelly knees. Kelly didn't resists as she pushed her hips up so the pants would slide off easily. Treece spread her legs and kissed her thighs hungrily. Kelly's scent turned her on as she ran her tongue across her already wet thong. Kelly leaned back deep in the folds of sheets and pinched her nipples. Treece licked her everywhere. Her kisses were passionate and sensual as she trailed her lips along Kelly's smooth body. She payed careful attention as she licked and kissed her everywhere, sometimes going back up and starting again. Kelly's soft moans turned Treece on. She liked the fact that Kelly was totally submissive, her slave and subject. Her fingers trailed her body quickly with just enough roughness on Kelly's weak spots.

Riping off the thong, unable to wait, Treece wrapped her lips around Kelly's love zone. Kelly begged and bucked as Treece's tongue darted in and out of her pussy. She screamed her name when Treece slipped her finger's inside, spreaded her open. Kelly's love spilled on the sheets in a mix heat and desire. She grabbed Treece's hair and pleaded for the moment to never end. Her climax exploaded like a bomb on the fourth of July as she sank deep in the sheets. Treece came too at the sight of Kelly's love. She moved her way up and straddled herself across Kelly flicking tongue. Treece held on tight to the bed rails as her body shook and rocked. Up and down, up and down she bounced her hips across Kelly's hungry tongue.

"Fuck me....ssss....Fuck me....God...fuck me!" Treece cried, holding on for her dear life.

Scene 34

Maxine stepped off the 7:52am bus and walked down to Angie's block. She noticed that Treece's car was there and instantly got a attitude. 'What is that trick bitch doing with my woman this early in the fucking morning?' Her left eye began to twitch as she walked slowly past Angie's apartment. Paying careful attention to keep her cool she tried to see inside but the blinds were closed. She decided to walk around to back of the building so no one would see her and call the cops. Her feet moved swifly down the walkway and along the thin trail to the back of building. Once in the back she darted her eyes back and forth to see if anyone was out taking garbage. The coast was clear so she proceded up the back stairs to listen at Angie's door.

Angie and Treece had came downstairs in the kitchen and Angie was cooking breakfast. 'She cooking breakfast for this bitch? In my house?' Maxine was beside herself but managed to keep her cool by taking deep breaths in and out of her nose. She listened attentively while Angie and Treece laughed and chatted about some of the crazy things they had been through. They talked about how they met and Angie cracked jokes about all the women Treece had beded. Maxine moved closer to the door and sqwatted down low so she could hear the conversation more clearer.

Treece was telling Angie how much she would miss her and how wonderful of a woman she thought she really was. She had assured her that if she ever needed her, she would come running. 'Yes, you come running bitch! Come running so I can cut your mutha fucking ass for pushing up on my woman!' Maxine's hands were shaking. It took everything in her not to bust the door down and wrap her bare hands around Treece's throat. The nerve of this Hefer being here this early in morning. She continued to breath through her nose as she listened to Angie tell Treece how she was going to inquire about a security system.

"I need something in here cuz Maxine had lost her fucking mind."

"You don't need no damn alarm. You need a fucking AK-47 for that ass! Rock-a-bye baby" Treece laughed and she pointed her finger in the air in the shape of a gun.

"Seriously Treece. She is beginning to make me nervous. This last incident was like a fucking war. I can't beleive I got to fight like that in my own damn house."

"I wish I could stay with you...I would protect you."

"Yah...I'm sure Kay and Rhonda would LOVE to hear about that! We got enough problems!" Angie laughed.

"Well Baby, you do what you got to do. Call ADT and lock this mutha fucker up like fort fucking knox. Hell, you need a damn gun in here too. Straight up. Even the dumbest nigga's stop dead in their tracks when a gun is pointed in their face!"

"I don't think it's that serious. "

Treece cocked her head and gave Angie a look like she was crazy.

"O, it's that serious!"

"O stop! Here taste this...my own special recipe." Angie walked over and gave Treece a taste of her famous omlet.

Maxine raised up and took a quick peak inside the window. 'No you didn't! You couldn't boil a fucking egg when I met you!' Maxine ducked back down and pressed her ear to the door.

"Straight up babygirl...I can get you that piece. Just for some extra protection."

"Treece I don't know...let me think about it."

Maxine swung her head around when she heard the Shorty from next door come outside with the trash. It was too late to run so she just sat idle and hoped that the little kid did not see her and say anything. She should have known, he would see her and come running.

"Ms. Maxineeeeee..." The little boy shouted.

Maxine put her finger on her lips to quiet the sqweeling boy. She tried to fan him away but he was already bouncing up the back stairs.

"Ms. Maxine..what cha doingggg?"

'Got Damnit this fucking boy!'

"Hey little Eddie...you be real quiet now...I'm playing hide and seek. I can't get caught." Maxine whispered.

"OOO...OOO....can I play Ms. Maxine...Can I playyy?"

Maxine rolled her eyes. 'Yah, you can play if you shut the fuck up!' Maxine mumbled under her breath.

"Yes, little Eddie....you can play...now run and hide behide the garage over there and count to 20. Can you count to 20?"

"Yesss...I can count to 20 and I know my ABC's and 1-2-3's and my Mama say's I'm a big boy, yes I can count Ms. Maxineeee!" Little Eddie was bouncing around like top, nose just running.

"Shhhh...you got to be quiet boy!" Maxine covered his mouth and pointed to back of the garage. "Now run over there and hide.....don't say a word." Maxine was on edge as Eddie bounced down the stairs.

Maxine watched as the little boy ran behind the garage. When he was out of sight, she tip toed down the back of the stairs. Nervous about being caught, she quickly ran back down the walk way then back on the sidewalk. She quickly ran down the street to the bus stop. She had seen enough. She checked her watch to see when the next bus would be coming. She had a good 5 minutes to wait and ponder what she had just witnessed.

Angie walked to the front room to turn on TV. Before her and Treece sat down, she walked to the window and looked out. She did a double take and pressed her head closer to window as she watched Maxine run down the street to the bus stop.

"Treece..."

"Yah?"

"I think I'll get that gun..."

"Alright. Bet."

Scene 33

Treece had a hard time sleeping the night before. In her head she had visions of herself locked behind bars for several years with no contact with her friends and family. Detecive Vaughn had scared the shit out of her and Treece knew she had a small window of time to decide what she wanted to do with herself. Leave town or face jail. That was the question. She decided to confide in Angie. No matter what, she knew that she could trust her. Angie had been a good friend and Treece knew that she would be there for her. She decided to check to see if Angie was awake and let it all out.

She saw Angie's light on in the room and softly tapped on her door.

"Knock, Knock."

"Who there?" Angie giggled.

"The Boogyman."

"Oooo...Mr. Boogyman, please don't come into my room. Don't take my goodies Mr. Boogyman. I'm just a helpless damsel." Angie laughed.

Treece smiled to herself. Relieved that Angie was awake.

"Good Morning..." Treece peaked her head in.

"Hey come on in girlfriend....why the long face?"

"I gotta talk to someone."

"I'm all ears." Angie put down her Essence magazine and gave Treece her undivided attention.

"I'm in trouble Angie...a lot of trouble...."

"What do you mean? "

"Well, you know about my 'dealings'...well...my um, other job...right?"

"O shit! What happened Tony Soprano?" Angie's eyebrow went up.

"I see you got jokes early in the morning. Well, anyway, this chick I been messing around with...well she is a cop and..."

"Wait a minute. What do you mean, this chick you been messing around with? I didn't know you were talking to anyone."

"Well, we kinda just fuck buddies, nothing really to tell." Angie rolled her eyes.

"Go on..." Angie said.

"Well, she is a cop and she met me by chance. Well, I guess it was her assignment so she says to run into me and get close and shit. She got all kinds of evidence on me. My prints and dealings with various clients, all that shit. She is supposed to turn me in."

"Mutha fuck Treece! Why in the hell did she target you in the first place?"

"I sold some shit to some bitch that was a Congressman's wife. Turns out, she some fucking dope head that OD'ed and now she in the hospital in a coma. Damn near dead. The fucking man is out to get me cuz of it...." Treece's hands were shaking.

"Omg...Omg! I don't beleive this. How in the hell could you get yourself mixed up in this shit Treece?"

"I know. I know. Trust me, I think this shit is wrap for me. I can't even do this shit anymore."

"So, there's more?"

"Well, she all in love with me and she told me she would toss the evidence if I make her mine. I know Angie...don't even say it! Please don't even say it. Cuz trust me, I'm not trying to settle down with nobody."

"That is not what I was thinking....I was thinking you must be one hell of a damn lover for this bitch to give up her damn job and risk it all for you. Shit! What you got in those jeans girl?"

Treece tried to see the humor but her smile quickly faded.

"What am I gonna do Angie? I can't go out like this?"

"Come here Boo..." Angie reached out and wrapped Treece in her arms.

"I'm gonna go down. I'm gonna go down hard for this." Treece began to cry. It was the first time Angie had ever seen her so vunerable. Treece had always been hard. Strong mind. Strong will. The fucking hustler out of all of them. When some ill shit was happening, everyone knew to call Treece to clean it up. Nobody fucked with her and nobody crossed her. Angie hated the fact that her good friend was selling drugs. Even in the beginning when Treece was just slinging small dime bags, Angie tried to get her to let it go. Treece was caught up. She loved the game and she loved the money. The street life kept calling her and soon she rose up to be a damn drug lord. She loved the attention and the women flocked to her constantly. Treece had even talked about some of the women who didn't even use drugs would buy small bags just to get next to her. She was a charmer. She knew how to get these women to drop the cash and the panties. She had clients all over the city. Now she was a scared rabbit. Angie couldn't figure out if she was really scared of jail or just scared of leaving the lifestyle she had come to love.

"Do you trust her Treece...?"

"Yeah...well I guess....I really don't know."

"She could be lying to you....did you think about that?"

"Well, yah but Angie, don't you think if she wanted to bring me in that tough she would have been done it? She could have done it yesterday. Hell, she could have done it 2 fucking months ago!"

"I see."

"I think I'm going to go ahead and roll out though."

"Where though? You can't spend your life on the run...where are you gonna go?"

"Maybe up North or something. Out of the city....she suggested that we both lay low for a while until this shit blows over. Then she told me that they really don't even know who they hell they are looking for because she got all the proof."

"Hmp!" Angie shruged her shoulders.

"What?"

"She is a slick one.... that's what."

"I know...."

"So, you leave what, in a week or so and you miss out on a few things...you know Rhonda's birthday is coming up. This year I was planning a little party at Busties."

"Yah, well Rhonda don't want me there."

"I think Rhonda is going to forgive you and move on. If she already hasn't...."

"What makes you so sure?"

"She seeing someone else now."

"Well good for her....I hope she will be happy." Treece sad coldly.

"Now, now...don't be like that. You know she can't hold a grudge for too long."

"You seem to forget that she had me by my throat not too long ago. I keep telling you just like I told Kay, she crazy! Then Kay aint gonna wanna see me either. I done fucked up with them both." Treece hung her head.

"A party is just what we ALL need. Look, you do what you need to do and handle this business. Don't you worry about those two, I got this. Whatever you do, you let me know where you are. You call me, text me whatever. I don't want to be worried about you....you hear me?"

"yah...yah..."

"Don't you 'yah, yah' me..." Angie smiled and kissed Treece on the forehead. She loved her friend dearly and would just about anything to protect her.

"Did I tell you thanks for letting me hang out here?" Treece said.

"Anytime Boo."

Treece hung on to Angie like it was last time she would ever see her.

Scene 32

It was well into the night before Rhonda and Ramie fell asleep. They'd been making love off and on throughout the evening, then made brownies together and watched part of a scary movie before finally turning in. They had been sleeping for a couple of hours before Rhonda got up around 10:00 to clean up the kitchen. She looked over at Ramie who was sleeping peacefully and stroked her hair. Rhonda smiled to herself and couldn't beleive she had been so lucky to meet Ramie. Already she felt a connection and she vowed to herself to never let her go.

Once downstairs she gathered up all the dishes and rinsed them off for the dishwasher. She wiped down the couter tops, stove, fridge and then the kitchen table. She lightly dusted some furniture in the living room and windexed her glass coffee table and picked up the DVD's and placed them neatly back in their place. When everything was back in order she went to bathroom and popped a Tylenol for a slight headache she felt coming on then sat on the couch and pondered about her life. She was happy. She felt revived since meeting Ramie. It was that change she had been waiting for. She was even thinking to herself that she may be able to forgive Treece for all the pain she'd caused. For the first time, Rhonda felt at peace.

***Later that night @ Busties****

"You're late." Yah-Yah was standing at the door when Dana arrived. She hated when the girls were not on time but since Dana was new, she hadn't been completely "trained" like the others.

"Sorry about that, a little car trouble."

"Don't let it happen again."

"I won't. So am I up next?"

"No. You missed your spot. So now you have to wait a little bit. There is 4 girls a head of you, but this may work out because there is a bachelor party going on later. It will kick off about 1:00. Be ready for that."

"Fine."

Dana walked to the back to her locker to get her things ready. She figured that since she was doing a party she would do something special for the boys. 'I'll come out in all white' she mumbled to herself.

"O hello. I didn't know anyone was back here."

Dana turned around and stared at one the finest women she had seen in the joint. This chick was even finer than Yah-Yah.

"It's just little ol' me, no problem. I'm Dana."

"Yes, I know. I've seen you on stage. It's quite a treat."

"I didn't know I had a fan."

"Yes...I've been wanting to meet you."

"Really? What took you so long....um...what is your name again?"

"Melinda. I guess I was just waiting for the right moment...."

"I see." Dana said.

"So...you going on next?"

"Actually, um, no. I don't have to go on til a little after 1:00 or so. I was a little late tonight."

"For that bachelor party?"

"Yes."

"Me too."

Dana looked Melinda up and down. 'Damn, I could hit that', she thought to herself.

"O, so you were a little late too tonight?"

"Not really. I only work here like one day a week. It's all I can stomach with these nigga's. So I told Yah-Yah I would do this party because she is like 3 girls down tonight."

"I see."

"So...um, since we got a few hours...how about we blow this joint."

"What you got in mind?" Dana felt her nipples harden.

"Well, I live about 2 blocks away. How about a drink at my place?"

"I thought you would never ask..."

Dana grabbed her jacket and watched Melinda walk to her locker. All she could think about was getting in between her thighs. She thought to herself that she shouldn't be so bad, but sometimes, you just gotta do what you gotta do. After all, Melinda was a fan. She didn't want to disappoint.

The two walked to the front of the club and each got a dirty look from Yah-Yah.

"Just keep walking. " Melinda said.

Once outside they hopped in Melinda's car and peeled off. Melinda looked in the rearview mirror and smirked at Yah-Yah standing in the door outside the club.

"I swear, that bitch acts like she owns us."

"I know, right? I thought it was just me that was thinking that ."

"Naw, that Ho got a problem."

"Maybe she needs a good tongue lashing to settle her ass down."

The two laughed together as they drove off into the night.

They arrived at Melinda's in less than seven minutes. They both got out of the car quickly and Dana follwed Melinda into her building to the elevator. Patiently waiting while the elevator seemed to take forever to get the 17th floor, Melinda looked at Dana and admired her curves. She imagined how Dana would taste and she knew she would stop at nothing getting a piece of that ass.
Finally at the 17th Floor Melinda stepped off the elevator first with Dana quickly in tow. They both almost skipped to the appartment at the end of the long corridor.

"Can I just tell you..." Dana said.

"Shhh...don't say anything."

"Melinda opened the door and threw her keys on the table and kicked off her shoes. She began to unbutton her shirt to reveal a black satin push-up bra. Dana shut the door behide her and locked it and began to take off her coat.

"Damn." she moaned.

"Ummm." Melinda was hot. She began to feel the moistness in her thong.

Dana pulled her shirt over her head and unhooked her jeans. Melinda watched as Dana's thighs jiggled with every move.

Melinda walked to her bedroom in her thong without saying a word. Dana eagerly follwed her, turned on by this new trick. She liked her style. No conversation. Just get to it.

Melinda got on the bed on all fours and motioned for Dana to come to her. Dana obeyed and climbed in the bed and began to kiss Melinda's firm body. She ran her tongue across her back, down her spine and across her ass. She quickly pulled Melinda's thong to the side and ran her tongue down the crack of her ass.

"That's it baby...take that shit...mmmm....."

Dana wet her fingers and began to run them across Melinda's clit. She felt her body shiver and watched her juices form on her pussy lips. Dana took a moment to admire Melinda's body. Carmel complexion, firm, thin waist, hips that wouldn't quit and the roundest ass anyone would ever want to see.

"Ummm..I want it all.." Melinda moaned.

Dana gently spreaded Melinda's ass cheeks and licked her up and down. She moved her tongue fast then slow, fast then slow. Melinda was in sheer bliss as she bounced her ass back and forth across Dana's quick tongue.

"Oooo...ummm...mmm....ssss...yes....suck that...suck it..."

Dana didn't miss a beat as she continued to give Melinda the tongue lashing that she was begging for. Melinda screamed in extasy as she exploaded on Dana's flicking tongue.

"I got something for you Dana."

"What that?"

Melinda crawled over to her nightstand and pulled out her small bag of tricks. Dana eyes widend.

"What's in there?" Dana asked.

"Shhhh..." Melinda covered Dana's mouth with her's and kissed her passionatly.

"I want you on top of me..."

Dana obeyed and quickly straddled Melinda's face. Melinda took Dana's pulsing pussy lips in her mouth and proceded to give her what she was anticipating. Dana's nipples hardend and her back arched as she slipped into extasy. She came hard and fast and cried Melinda's name outloud. Melinda ran her tongue across her clit and watched her from below.

"Turn around..." Melinda said.

Out of breath but still wanting more Dana obeyed. She turned around and positioned herself right in front of Melinda's face. Melinda spread her legs and commanded Dana to suck her. Dana obeyed and tried to focus as Melinda played with her ass with her fingers. Dana felt herself open up as Melinda slid her wet finger's inside of her ass. She plunged in deeply and watched as Dana squirmed under her complete control.

"Yes...yes...give it to me..." Dana moaned.

Melinda pulled out a short jelly vibe and licked it with her tongue first then ran it along Dana's hot pussy then slipped it into her ass. Dana's began to bounce her ass in sheer delite. Melinda teased her more with her tongue as she playfully licked her clit and slid the vibe in and out. Dana exploaded in extasy and and tried to sit up only to be pushed back down on all fours. Melinda continued to fuck her slow as she sucked her clit. She got off on watching Dana squirm and moan and decided to give her more. She reached over and pulled out a 10 inch dildo and wet it wit her tongue.

"Can I fuck this pussy...hmmm...can I fuck this pussy Dana?"

Dana was in a zone and could only moan as Melinda slide the dildo in her pussy slowly.

"Oooo...baby...." Melinda smiled to herself as she watched Dana take it all.

"Fuck Me. Fuck me." Dana cried as she hungrily took the dildo and the jelly vide inside her.

After their midnight get-a-way, Dana and Melinda drove back to Busties to get ready for the Bachlor party. When they arrived Yah- Yah was on stage giving the room full of men her usual opening act. She glanced down at Melinda and rolled her eyes as she watched them both smile and wave from the crowd.

Once back by the locker's they gathered their outfits for the nights performance.

"This would have been a perfect night if we didn't have to go out here." Melinda said.

"We must do it again sometime."

"Yes. We must."

Dana went out on stage first and did a masturbation scene on 'Prince's Darling Nikki' She was at her absolute sexiest that night. The men were throwing money left and right and a few broke the rules just to touch her. She crawled across the stage and flirted endlessly with the boys as Yah-Yah watched with her arms crossed by the bar.

Around 4am when the club was winding down, Dana began to pack her things to head home. She was exhausted but easily made 500.00 that night. There was a note from Melinda in her locker with her phone number. Dana smirked to herself as she thought that this had to be the best job she ever had. Pussy and money, what could be sweeter. She got in car and locked the doors. She decided to rest her eyes before she pulled off.

When she woke up, it was 7am.

Scene 31

Rhonda was in a deep sleep when she was awakend by the telephone in her ear.

"Good Morning Sleepy Head..."

"Good Morning Gorgeous...."

"I hope I didn't call too early...."

"Not at all...how are you doing?" Rhonda sat up in the bed and ran her fingers thru her hair.

"I will be doing much better when I see you...." Ramie smile into the phone.

"Well, I couldn't agree more. So what's the plan for today? I'm game for anything."

"Anything? Watch what you say...."

"I know exactly what I'm saying...." Rhonda smiled as she ran her hands across her chest.

"I like the way you think Rhonda...."

"And I love the way you smell...I can still smell you in my head you know."

"OOO...don't you start with me this early in the day." Ramie was blushing like crazy.

"So, tell me you are already dressed and on your way."

"I'm already dressed and on my way."

"No. Seriously. Are you dressed?"

"Seriously. I'm in the car on the drive. I'll be there in 10 minutes."

"OMG! Well, let me get up. O, you are sooo sneaky! I'm going to get you for this! Trying to catch me off guard." Rhonda laughed into the phone.

"You better hurry up, I may be there in five minutes."

"Bye you!"

"Bye you...."

Ramie continued speeding down the outer drive as she headed for Rhonda's exit. She was so excited to see her this morning, she couldn't sleep. She'd been up since 7 that morning and managed to pay a few bills, make a some calls and move around some appointments for the week, all before nine am. All she wanted to do was wrap Rhonda in her arms. She didn't care about the site-seeing or any of the plans they made for the week. It was all about them and their moments. Ramie feelings ran deep. She didn't have a problem admitting it to herself or to Rhonda.
She parked the car in front of Rhonda's home and took a deep breath and smiled to herself. She didn't know how she got to be so lucky but she was savering every moment. She stepped out of the car and walked up to the front door and rang the bell. Her heart was beating a mile a minute and even though it was only a few moments, it felt like a lifetime before she saw Rhonda's face.

"Well...hello." Rhonda was standing there. Bright beautiful brown eyes, smooth skin that looked as soft as silk, and a body that wouldn't quit.

"Hi...."

"Well don't just stand there. Come in!"

"It is chilly today....."

"Hmmm...I know...." Rhonda heart skipped a beat. She knew she was attracted to Ramie, but today seemed different.

"I hope you didn't mind me showing up so soon..."

"Not at all. I'm glad you came early. Saves me the trouble of waiting for you and being overly anxious."

"You get that too huh?"

"God! Yes!" Rhonda smiled. "Here, let me take your coat."

"Thank you."

Rhonda stepped behide Ramie and slipped her out of her wool jacket. Ramie was wearing Perry Ellis 360 and smelling sexy as hell. Rhonda resisted the urge to kiss her on her neck.

"Make yourself at home...."

"Thank you..."

"Would you like something to drink?"

"Well..I'm alright for the moment."

Ramie looked deep into Rhonda eyes. She loved the way her eye lashes curled innocently and the way she would look at her. It was sweet, romantic and devilish all at the same time.

"God, I missed you Rhonda...."

"I missed you too...so much. I feel like I have not seen you. Silly huh?"

"We can be silly together then." Ramie smiled.

"I hope today lasts a little bit longer than yesterday."

"I hope today never ends." Ramie spoke softly as she stepped closer to Rhonda. She touched her hand first, then trailed her fingers along Rhonda's robe. She touched her chest and her neck, then ran her hand along the side of her face. Rhonda pulled Ramie to her and touched the soft skin on her face. Ramie kissed her hand and closed and eyes and sighed to herself. Rhonda pulled her closer and placed her head on her chest. Ramie moaned softly as she slipped into Rhonda arms. This was right where she wanted to be.

"Ramie..."

"Yes Baby..."

"Promise me that you won't leave"

Ramie looked into Rhonda eyes and before she could form a single sound, Rhonda coverd her mouth with a kiss. Ramie floated. She wrapped her arms around Rhonda's waist and pulled her as close as she could get her. Their kiss was passionate. They both longed for each other and their desire ran deep.

"I won't leave..." Ramie said.

"It's just me and you."

"Always."

Rhonda pulled Ramie tighter to her body. She could smell her hair, her skin, her cloths. She could feel how much Ramie truly did adore her and she knew that it was the type of feeling she hadn't experienced with Treece. She knew Ramie wanted her and she wanted Ramie. Every piece of her body ached for this woman. Her lips were soft and her kisses were gentle. They both were in the midst of a dance. The music was a song only they could hear.

"Where have you been all this time?" Ramie asked.

"Waiting on you to come into my life."

Ramie touched Rhonda's body everywhere. She was fascinated. Turned on. Caught up and swept off her feet.

"I need to be next to you..."

"I'm not going anywhere Ramie..."

"It's too soon for all of this." Ramie shyly pulled away.

"No, it's not too soon for us."

Rhonda took Ramie by the hand and led her to the stairs. Ramie stopped her tracks.

"Rhonda are you sure?"

"I've never been so sure about anything in my life."

Ramie took a deep breath.

"But Ramie, if you want to wait, I'm OK with that. I don't want to rush you."

"No...no...I'm not rushed."

Rhonda proceded to walk up the stairs and Ramie followed her. Once inside the bedroom Ramie looked around. Instantly she felt safe, secure and at home.

"Are you alright?" Rhonda said.

"Yes. What about you?"

"I will be much better with you in my arms."

Ramie walked over to Rhonda and the two embraced. Rhonda kissed her neck and rubbed her hands along her back. Their lips met and they kissed each other like they had been kissing for a lifetime. Ramie reached down and pulled her sweater over of head. Rhonda's eyes were beaming with excitement and she was instantly turned on at the site of Ramie's smooth skin. She had on a pastel pink bra and her jeans were fitted just right around her hips. Rhonda untied her robe and let it open on it's on while Ramie unzipped her boots and kicked them across the room. She quickly unhooked her belt and unzipped her jeans and pulled them down over her hips.

"My God...Ramie..." Rhonda admired Ramie's sensous curves. She was thck in all the right places.

Ramie looked at Rhonda's dark smooth skin under her robe. She was turned on by Rhonda's hard nipples and her shaven pussy.

"What is it?"

"you look...so..."

"Good?"

"Yes....but better than good."

"Great?" Ramie said jokingly.

"I had fantazized about your body....it didn't compare to seeing you like this."

Ramie stepped up to Rhonda and slipped her completely out of her robe. She kissed her chest and ran her lips across her nipples. Her hands trailed her hips and tickled her stomach. Rhonda was shaking but loving every second. She led Ramie to the bed and pulled her on top of her. Ramie didn't miss a beat as she quickly straddled her legs across Rhonda's body. Their lips locked as Rhonda quickly unhooked Ramie's bra.

"God, you feel so good...mmmm"

"Rhonda....I want you so bad right now...I just want you so bad...." Ramie whispered softly.

They made love well into the afternoon. Just when one thought it was over, the other begged for more. They cried together and held each other then cried some more. They spoke of love and happiness and feelings that would never end. They talked of their future and shared their fears. They told each other secrets and created a few of their own. They held each other tight, neither one of them wanting to let go.

"Well! I'm starving! How about you?"

"I could eat whole chicken!" Ramie laughed.

"Well, let's raid the kitchen and see what's for dinner."

"Ok...I'm going to jump in the shower first if you don't mind."

"Go right ahead. I will see what I can whip up, then I'll join you."

Rhonda grabbed her robe then went to the closet to grab Ramie something to put on.

"Here you go...this is one of my favorite's."

"It's beautiful! I love the color." Ramie said as she held up the pretty pink chemise.

"I figured you would. There are some extra towels in the linen closet and there is plenty of shower jels and bubble baths, so take your pick."

"Hurry back."

"I will."

While Ramie was in the shower, Rhonda grabbed some vegetables from the fridge along with some angel hair pasta. She was already thawing out some chicken breast so she placed those in the sink. She grabbed her cutting knives and placed everything neatly on the counter. Before going back upstairs she placed her favorite dishes on the table along with some wine glasses and two candles. 'Perfect' she said aloud.

Ramie was humming in the shower when Rhonda stepped in.

"Would you like for me to wash your back?"

"I would love it."

Ramie passed Rhonda her loofah and smiled to herself while Rhonda enjoyed the view.

Scene 30

The next morning, Treece checked in on Angie, left her note, then headed out to meet the Client. She stopped off at Starbucks for coffee and the morning paper, then headed out to the Amber Inn. She still could not figure out what the Cleint was so serious about over the phone, all she knew was that whatever it was, she would handle it fast so she could find her a more permanent spot to live. When she pulled up at the hotel, the Client was already there. She saw Treece pull up so she turned off the ignition and stepped out of the car. Treece parked and watched the Client walk into one of the rooms leaving the door ajar behide her. Trrece looked around the parking lot suspicious as always before she got out the car. All seemed undisturbed so she made her way to the room.

The Client was standing next to the dresser with her arms crossed with a worried look on her face.

"What's up? You look like someone died." Trece said.

"Sit down Treece."

"What is this all about?"

"Please, just sit down."

The Client's brow was glistening with perspiration. She hadn't slept the night before and she was having difficulty keeping any food down. She was worried about the outcome of this situation with Treece. She still hadn't made her mind up whether to just arrest Treece or make her see that all the evidence she had against could be thrown in the wind. Things were never simple.

"What is this all about?" Treece sat on the bed with a concerned look.

"Treece, I really don't know where to begin...."

"How about at the beginning."

"I really don't know what the beginning is anymore. All I know is that I care deeply for you."

"And I care about you too."

"you do?""

"Of course....I mean, I like to think that we have established some sort of friendship Rita."

"My name is not Rita...."

"What? Girl, quit playing. Why you got my all up in here acting all serious and shit. You just wanted to see right? Come on over here...I'm here now..."

"Treece, please listen to me...my name is not Rita..."

"OK...role playing...I can dig it...What is your name then?"

"I'm Det. Kelly Vaughn from the Chicago Police Dept."

"OOOO...I like this shit. You here to arrest me Officer?" Treece said playfully.

"Treece! Listen to me Damnit! I'm not here playing any games with you. I'm Detective Kelly Vaughn from the Chicago Police Department. Here is my badge." Kelly threw the badge across the bed at Treece. Treece picked up the badge and her eyes widend.

"What the fuck is this all about Rita or Kelly or whoever the fuck you are!"

"Treece, please listen to me...."

Treece stood up and walked to window and peered outside.

"There is no one here and no one is coming. It's just you and me." Kelly spoke in calm, even tones as she took her gun off and laid it across the dresser. Treece watched her every move, uncertain where the moment was heading.

"Yah, you and me...what the fuck is this about?"

"Treece, like I said, I don't know where to begin. I'm sorry that it even come to this. You have to understand that I'm not out to hurt you. I really do care about you and I'm concerned about what could happen to you. If I had known that I would fall so deeply for you, this assignment wouldn't have never gone as far as it did."

"Assignment? What the fuck are you talking about Detective?" Treece said with a smirk.

"My assignment for the past 2 months was to track your moves and gather evidence of your money dealings and drug trafficking."

Treece gasped.

"Apparently a couple of months ago, you had sold some coke to a Congressman's wife and she over dosed. She had been a coma ever since and now is on life support. The Congressman has many connections and is gunning for whoever sold her the coke. I got assigned to the case."

"Ooooo...fuck this shit man! Fuck this shit!" Treece put her hands on head and began walking back and forth. Her head was spinning.

"Treece when I met you, I thought you were a arrogant, pompus bitch and I couldn't wait for the case to be over. My assignment was to get close to you. Be your woman even. But as you know, I only got so close because you were involved with Kay. At any rate, I was able to gather a substantial amount of evidence on you. I have photo's, taped conversations, your fingerprints, everything. The DA is going to have a field day with you. Basically you are going to go down. And if this Congreeman's wife dies...well Treece...that's murder."

"You mean to tell me all this fucking time...you come to me like you were a fucking client and you setting me up for the okie doke? You mutha fucking slut!" Treece could barely hear anything Kelly had to say, her mind was going a mile a minute.

"Treece...listen, I deserve whatever you may feel but I'm not done. There is more."

"More? More? What the hell else could you possibly say to make this any worse than it already is!"

"Treece, I love you."

"WHAT!"

"I love you Treece. Did you hear me...I love you." Kelly stepped up to Treece and tried to touch her and Treece backed away.

"How the fuck...?" Treece had tears in her eyes.

"Treece please listen to me....we have spent so much time together...and I couldn't help myself. It just happend. All the nights in this hotel making love until the sun came up, it was heaven. I just fell for you. I was even a little obsessed with you, jealous because you always went home to Kay. I was struggling with turning you in or letting this evidence majically disappear. I know you thought I was crazy at times. I had to put up a front to keep my cover. Deep down, I cared so much for you and I wanted to save you from all of this. I would be willing to risk my job, my career if you would just..."

"Just what?"

"Let me love you....God! I cannot believe what I am saying. I know your a big time womanizer. I know about all the women that you have fucked in the last two months. I know it all. I cannot believe I love someone like you Treece, but I do. It's real. I know you hate me now....I just messed this all up..."

"I don't hate you Kelly....I just want to slap the fuck out of you! I don't understand how you could do all these things with me for all this time. What the hell do you want me to say? You here to take me in now right? But you want me to know you love me? You me to let you love me? I'll be behide bars but as long as I got your love...what? I'll be alright? Girl, this aint no damn Harlequin romance novel! You said it yourself...I'm going down!"

Kelly was desperate.

"It doesn't have to be this way Treece. We could go away. We could leave right now and never look back. This evidence can be destroyed. If it is, they have nothing. Before I got the case, they had nothing. I would swear my life on it. I'm the one holding the keys on this one baby. You just say the word and we can be out of the city by tonight."

"Girl, you buggin! Then I'll have a fucking warrent. I'm not living my life on the run for no piece of pussy. Now you have spent all this time with me, you know I'm not about to go out like that."

"They have nothing on you Treece. They don't even know who the hell you are. I'm supposed to turn in my reports in a couple of days."

"They know my name."

"Nooo...they don't." Kelly was risking it all at this point. Telling Treece the entire truth was one thing. But exposing the details of her case would blow this thing sky high.

"I lied about that to the Chief. I've been protecting you Treece, all this time. The Chief thinks your name is Nena. Nena Jackson. "

Treece paced back and forced. She couldn't trust Kelly and she probaly never would. Leaving out of town with her wouldn't make no difference.

"I need to think Kelly...this is all a bit much for me to take in right now."

"This cannot wait Treece. I need to know how you feel about me."

"Basically what you telling me is that if I run away with you, you would toss this evidence. If I don't, you hand me over to rot in jail, did I understand that correctly?"

"You make it sound so harsh...."

"No, you make it sound like a fucking ultimatum. You can't make me love you Kelly. I mean damn, don't get me wrong, I have always felt something for you. Since the beginning, but you know me...I'm not no settle down down type."

"Not even with me...huh?"

"Kelly, damn girl....you got me going in circles. You can't just lay this shit on me and expect to ride out in the fucking sunset with you. It aint that easy."

Treece was right and Kelly knew that. She also knew that if she didn't hand in her report by Friday, they were bringing in another detective on the case. Treece would pay the price.

"Treece, I got until Friday to turn in my evidence. I stalled the Chief until then, after that someone else will be on your tail. Probaly more than one person. You are going down sooner or later. Your options are limited. After Friday I can't do anything for you to help you. Hell I may not even have a badge by then."

"You risking all of this for me?"

"I love you...I want to be with you."

Treece was in shock. Most cats that go down for shit like this never see the light of day. She actually had an option of freeing herself and starting over. She could leave the game and never look back. Kelly was fine as hell too. She was alot of fun and wouldn't be so bad being with her. But Treece still didn't trust her. Couldn't trust her.

"I all fucked up right now Girl. You know that shit right?"

"I understand. My choices are limited too Treece."

"Where are we supposed to go? Out of the country or some shit?"

"No, we stay here. Just out the area. I need to be seen in order not to raise suspicion."

Treece sighed heavily.

"Listen, let this life go. I'm sure you got enough money to survive for a while. Go on with your life and leave all this shit behind you. Behind us. Like I said, they looking for a Nena Jackson. They have no pictures, they have nothing on you. You will be fine. Please let me do this for you...."

Kelly sat on the bed and put her head in her hands. She couldn't fight the tears any longer. Treece walked over and stroked her head.

"I just want to help you Treece...."

"I know..."

Kelly looked up at Treece and pleaded with her eyes as she continued to stroke her hair.

"Please let me...."

Treece pulled Kelly up close to her face and looked into her eyes.

"You can make this go away?"

"Yes...I can make it all go away Treece....all of it."

Kelly touched Treece's face and ran her finger's across her lips. She leaned in close and kissed the woman that she had adored so much.

Scene 29

Angie watched the officer's leave and once they were down the street, she turned around and looked at her front room. It had been completely destroyed. She walked to the bathroom and in the medicine cabinet, she pulled out some peroxide to nurse the bruise on her face. She added a small bandage to a cut on her brow, then went to the kitchen to pour herself a drink. Once back in the living room, she flopped on the couch and picked up a magazine. As she tried to read, her peripheral vision would not let her escape the events that had occurred. She tossed the magazine across the room, curled her legs up against her chest, and cried. An hour passed as she lay still on the couch, contemplating her next move. A loud knock at the door startled her as she turned her head and wondered if it was Maxine again.

"Angie? You in there? It's me.""
Treece?"
"Yes! Open up girl!"

Angie got up off the couch then walked to the door and slowly turnedthe lock.
"What the hell happened!" Treece was in shock at the site ofAngie's bruised face.
"O…it was just a little fight…"
"A little…what the hell is going on in here…omg! What thehell….girl, your house is….Angie….my God…."
Angie burst into tears and fell in Treece's arms.
"She came here…she left this note…and she said she loved me…shelied, she lied to me and she hit me…she hit me so many times, why she doing this to me…."

Treece could barely make out what Angie wassaying to her.
"Where is she at now? That fucking bitch! I'll kill her ass! I'm sick of this bullshit!"
"I don't know. She left before the cops got here."

Treece held Angie in her arms until she stopped crying. She stroked her hair and kept reassuring her that everything was going to bealright. Once Angie's cry's had subsided, Treece started to get up off the couch to get her some water.

"Where you going…don't leave…" Angie's hands were shaking.
"I'm not going anywhere. I'm here as long as you need me to be."Angie sighed in relief.

"Treece, what made you come over here anyway?"
"Well, you know Kay kicked me out. So…um…"
"Yah, well, I'm not getting in the middle of that mess. You can hang out here for a few days….I really need the company you know…"
"At this point, I don't think you could throw me out if you tried."Treece said as she passed some water to Angie.

"I would like to ring Maxine's neck. This shit has gone too damn far. Look at this mess! Broken glass everywhere, shit turned over…damn!"
"I tried to beat that bitch ass!"
"And did you?"
"I got a few licks in here and there. But you know, Maxine has tobe stopped."
"What the police say?"
"Nothing. I told them the noise wasn't coming from here."
"What do you mean? Why didn't you tell them that bitch was here."
"I don't know Treece. Trying to help her ass again, I guess. But it just don't work anymore. I'm done. I wanted out, and I got out."
"That ho will be back."
"And I will be waiting for her ass next time."
"you better be."

Angie went to bed and Treece stayed downstairs straightening up thefront room. It was the least she could do since Angie had decidedto let her stay for a few days. She knew she had to come up with aplan to try and find herself somewhere more permanent to stay andshe decided to grab a paper in the morning and just get her owncrib. At least having her own apartment would solve part of herproblems. As she sat down on the couch she checked her cell phone.She had a voice mail from the Client. She debated on whether or notto call so late, but it seemed important.

"Hey what's up?"
"Hi, I'm glad you called."
"Is there a problem Ms. Lady?"
"We need to talk Treece."
"What about?"
"Well, I need to see you. It's important."
"Sounds serious. Can it wait?"
"Umm, no."
"I just got settled in."
"Where are you anyway? I thought you were staying at the hotel withme?"
"I gotta find my own crib girl. I can't be chillin in a hotel likethat. I appreciate the offer though…."
"I see."
"Look, can this wait; I'm a little worn out and I helping out afriend right now."
"Treece, look…I have to tell you something and I need to explain some things to you. I would prefer that this didn't wait, but it'syour choice."
"Alright, look, first thing in the morning…meet me at the spot."
"Fine."
"Have a good night baby…whatever it is; it's going to be alright."

Treece hung up and wondered what has gotten the client in such a tizzy.

Scene 28

****Meanwhile back at Angie's****

Angie has just got in from hanging out and clearing her head. Eventhough she was so excited for Rhonda, she still had own issues todeal with when it came to Maxine. She knew deep down that Maxinewas not going to just let all of this ride, even with a restrainingorder in tact. She had considered taking a short to stay with afriend out of town until everything blew over when she pulled up infront of her building. She stepped out of her car and walked up tothe front door to grab her mail. As she grabbed a few bills out ofthe box and some garbage advertisements, she noticed a plainenvelope with no stamp and her first name typed on the front. Sheflipped the envelope on the back and stared for a few secondswondering who had slipped something in her box.Once inside her place, she picked up the envelope and ripped it open.

Angie,
I know you just don't want to hear anything I have to say, but Ihave been doing some thinking. I can't take back what happenedbetween us but I can say that I am sorry. I'm sorry for the way Ihurt you. I'm sorry for the way I humiliated you and I'm sorry Iturned out to be the disappointment you think that I am. I got someproblems, I admit that. But I'm nothing without you and I justdon't feel that I can go on without you in my life. I neverexpected any of this to happen and I regret it all. Leaving me inthat jail cell put some things on my mind and I'm willing to change,if you just take me back. I need someone that I can depend on and Iknow in my heart I can only depend on you. You have been what isconstant and good in my life and I know I have fucked this all upwith us but if you could just trust me one more time, I promise Iwon't let you down. I still love you Angie and I know that I alwayswill. Would you please think about it? Think about us. Our life.Our plans. I'll get a job and it will be better baby. You willsee. This is just some rough times right now but we can make itbaby, we can make it. I love you baby.

Ride or Die
Maxine

Tears were in Angie's eyes as she read that letter. She clutchedthe paper tight against her chest and struggled with giving heranother chance. She loved Maxine. She had always loved her and itwas killing her to be alone. Angie had always believed in her heartthat Maxine's problems had gotten the better of her. She knew thatMaxine loved her despite all of her short comings. Life had dealtMaxine a rough hand and she had been struggling for months. Angiebelieved it was stress and always gave her the benefit of thedoubt. As she began to read the letter again, she was interruptedby a soft knocking at the door.

"What are you doing here?"
"I just needed to make sure you got my letter…can we talk?"
"I don't think this is a good idea Maxine…you shouldn't be here."
"Please…don't be like this…I just want to talk…."Maxine stepped forward into the door not paying attention toanything Angie had to say.

"Angie, I can't do this. I cannot be without you. Please don'tmake me go through this alone. I still love you, and I know youlove me."

"Of course I love you Maxine. But I just can't live like this anymore."
"Don't you know that I love you?"
"If you loved me so much, then why did you do what you did? If youloved me, then why would you crank call my house? Why would you do anything of the things that you did Maxine?"

"I can' explain it. I just want you all to myself. You know how it is."
"No I don't. I've never been this way with anyone."Maxine stepped in closer.

"Maxine look, I didn't invite you in. I really think you should leave. I appreciate your letter, but I just need some space. I need some time."
"I can't even come in my house? What is this all about?"
"This is my house Maxine, and right now, I just cannot do this with you. Please. I do not want to fight with you tonight."
"Angie, I came here because I needed you to know that I loved you.Why are you doing all of this to me!" Maxine's eyes started to twitch.
"I'm not doing anything to you, you did all of this….I just cannot go back. Not right now. Please Maxine, just go."
Maxine pushed past Angie and walked to middle of the living room. Angie let out a heavy sigh.

"I'm not going anywhere until you accept my apology!"
"Fine, I accept it. Now please, I'm tierd."
"I bet you are. Where have you been? I waited for 3 hours for you get here and read that letter."
"I don't have to answer to you Maxine….."
Maxine stepped up in Angie's face and looked deep into her eyes.
"What the fuck is that supposed to mean? We are still together!The quicker you understand that, the better this will be for both ofus."
"See Maxine, this is why I cannot do this with you. You are alwaystrying to control me. I'm not your child. And you know whatMaxine, before you came busting in here, I was this close to tryingto make things right with you, but you have not changed. This was all a bunch of bullshit!"

Angie took the letter and ripped it in half.
"What are you doing?"
"I want you out of my house, now!"
"I'm not going anywhere….."
"Fine, I'm calling the police."Angie walked over to phone and Maxine quickly followed her closely. Angie could have sworn she could hear Maxine's heavy breathing onher back as she picked up the phone.
"Put that mutha fucking phone down!" Maxine snatched the phone fromAngie and yanked the cord from the wall. She pulled the cord so hard that everything on the end table came crashing down on the floor.
"O that's it! Get the fuck out of my house now!"
"I aint going no damn where!" Maxine yelled. Angie headed for the door, determined to get out of the house and scream for a neighbor. Before she could get back to the front thedoor Maxine had her by the back of the head.
"Bring your mutha fucking ass back here bitch!" Maxine pulled Angie from the door and tossed her on the couch like a rag doll.
"Now listen here…I'm not about to play these games with your ass tonight. I didn't come here for all of that. Why do you have tomake me crazy like this? Why do you gotta fuck everything up!" Maxine's voice was shaking and she climbed on top of Angie'sstruggling body.

"Get off of me Maxine! Get off!"Maxine slapped Angie's face so hard her head flew the side.
"I'm tierd of this shit! You always make me crazy! Damn you! Why do you make me crazy like this!"
"Fuck you bitch!" Angie pushed Maxine with everything she had and got from underneath her. She got up off the couch with her fist balled up at her side.
"You wanna fight Maxine? Cuz I'm not taking no more ass-whoopin's from you…bring it on bitch!"
Maxine lunged at Angie and the two fell hard on the floor. Angie began to scream and the more she screamed the harder Maxine hit her in the face.
"I will break your fucking neck!"
They tussled on the floor kicking and screaming and knocking everything that wasn't nailed down one the floor.
"I hate you Maxine! I hate you! You don't deserve shit but whatever the hell you get!"Maxine sucker punched Angie in the gut.
"You can't hurt me Maxine, so hit me again…go ahead, hit me some more. It's not gonna make me love you. It's over. It's been over. It's no going back, to hell with you."

Angie struggled to say every word and she slowly climbed to herfeet. She caught a glimpse of her face in a mirror and was stunned that this was actually her life. Battered and bruised. Maxine gotup off the floor and spit on the carpet as she looked at Angie likea mad woman.
"It aint over…." Maxine said.
"Get the fuck out."Maxine walked to the door and as quickly as she appeared she was gone. Angie looked out of her window and watched a squad car pull up in front of her building. Once again the neighbor's had heard commotion and called the authorities.

"Maaam. Anyone in there?"
"Yes, officer. I'm fine."
"We got a report that there was a disturbance."
"Not here sir….I just got in."
"You sure you're alright maam?"

"Yes, I'm fine."
