Daddy Taught Me Better (5 page)

CHAPTER 9 – NIC

I woke up to my house sounding like it was ten kids in my home instead of the three that I knew for a fact were in there. I totally blocked them out and just laid there in my bed thinking about last night events, I felt so bad for Kasey. Lord knows Kasey was stronger than I was because I probably would still be wreaking havoc. That’s what I admired the most about Kasey, her strength. When Jaden was running around here living as if he didn’t have a wife at home you would not have never known. Kasey always wore a smile on her face, dressed to the ten’s, walked and poke with so much confidence all the while holding in so much pain from her husband infidelities.  From the outside looking in you would think Kasey had the perfect life. Making her the envy of the town; this is why so many women pursued Jaden. They were all after the prize, but only if they knew the emotional and mental abuse that Kasey actually suffered by standing by her husband and staying true to her vows. I got up to take care of my hygiene to get my day started with the favorite men in my life. I had just start using these all natural products from Whole Foods for my face and I swear it was giving my skin a glow like I was 6 months pregnant. I threw on my Chanel sweatpants a Chanel wife beater tank top along with my Chanel flip-flops. I headed down the stairs to see what the boys had been getting into since they had been making so much noise they could have woke up the dead. When I made it downstairs, you would think a hurricane had went through my living room and kitchen. There were blankets sprawled around the floor. My decorative pillows from my couch were sprawled out as well. I looked to the left and seen the milk and cereal boxes still on sitting on top of the counters with their dirty dishes in the sink.

“Tim you know damn well I don’t play this shit, why is my house looking like this. Turn off that game, get yawl asses up and get to cleaning.”

“Ma why you yelling at me like that? It was Jaden and Kaden having a pillow fight earlier. I just fixed us breakfast earlier since you was sleep. I thought you would be happy that I babysat them while you were sleeping in.”

“So let me get this right Tim. You are the oldest correct?”

“Yes, ma’am.”

“You know the house rules correct?”

“Yes, ma’am.”

“I don’t play you lounging on my pillows when you sit on my couch so what the hell would make you think it was okay for you to sit here and let the twins have a pillow fight with them? Oh, so you don’t have nothing to say now Tim huh? You also know when you use a dish you clean a dish so it shouldn’t be no damn dishes in my sink. Jaden and Kaden get yawl asses up and get to cleaning up too. Both of you come here enough to know I don’t play this shit either. Yawl little asses tried it today, you don’t do this foolishness at your momma and sure not going to do it here.”

I stood there with my arms folded like a drill sergeant watching as they huffed, puffed and stomped around picking up their mess.

“I advise all three of you to fix those attitudes; if anybody should be pissed in here, it should be me. Disrespecting my damn house like one of you have a dollar to pay towards the rent.”

I retreated to my room to calm my nerves before I hurt one of these damn children this morning knowing my nerves were already bad. I grabbed my cellphone to call Kasey and check on her. As soon as I started to dial the number my phone beeped with an incoming call from Kasey.

“Hey sissy how you feeling today?” I asked her as soon as I answered the phone.

“I’ve had better days, but life must go on. I hate that I had to come out of character, but it is what it is. There is no since in crying over spilled milk.”

“Yeah I hear ya girl. Kasey, you’re a good person and I only want what’s best for you. So if that means leaving Jaden, then I’m with you one hundred percent.”

“I have to think about more than myself. I know he is no good for me; however he is a great dad or so I thought. I was thinking about this all morning too and if he was such a great dad, his ass would not have put me in a predicament where it would appear that it is me that made the choice to break-up our family when in all actuality he left me no choice.”

“So are you still going to leave him? Do you have a plan?”

“Damn Nic one question at a time please, I have no intentions on staying married to that damn dog. He around here was just bare-backing it with every Keisha, Sally, and Mary. You lay down with a dog and you get up with fleas. That shit for the birds. I got two boys that I have to be here. Fucking around with him will have me serving twenty to life and he just not worth it to me.”

“So what’s your next move then sis?”

“Not sure, I’m going to give it some thought and come up with something. I’m sure once we all put our heads together I’ll have a solid plan.”

“Who the hell are we?”

“Oh, girl I forgot to tell you I called my daddy last night and told him everything that has been going on.”

“Girl shut the front door; I know your daddy was pissed. What he said Kasey?”

“Yeah, his ass was hotter than fish grease. You probably could have fried some chicken on his forehead,” I told Nic as the thought of it had me laughing so hard.

“Huuuunty you know your dad don’t play no games, especially when it comes to you.”

“To be honest, he had every right to be upset because he taught me better than that. Allowing a man to treat me any kind of way, stomping all over my heart and the blatant disrespect I accepted from Jaden. No, ma'am, that was never supposed to be in the cards for me. However I made my bed and it’s time for me to change the sheets and make it back up because I damn sure won’t be lying in it anymore.”

I begin laughing so hard at Kasey crazy ass I started choking. Man, Kasey you be killing me with those damn analogies.

“Girl, I’m so serious right now, I started to call that jackass and start singing “I Bet” by Ciara. I’m going to break that nigga down to his knees and the sad part about it is I don’t even have to try. Jut leaving his ass going to make that nigga have PTSD. Where my bad ass boys at?”

“Yes, they are bad having pillow fights in my living room. Girl all they ass almost got hurt this morning playing with my emotions like that.”

“Please don’t hurt my babies, give them a hug and a kiss for me. I’ll be by there to pick them up around noon tomorrow so we can go to my parents’ house.”

“Okay, I’ll have them ready for you, let me get off this phone and go check on these kids. It was too loud this morning and now it’s too quiet for me. No telling what they have got into now. I’ll call you later and check on you. Get some rest.”

“Alright, sis thanks for everything. We will talk later.”

I peeped in Tim’s room and didn’t see the boys in there so I proceeded down the stairs again to see what they were up to. To my surprise the downstairs was immaculate. They had done a good job cleaning up.

“Hey, mom can we go to the park? I promise I’ll keep an eye on the twins.”

“Please Goddie,” the twins joined in pleading to go to the park.

“Okay yawl can go, take some Gatorade with you because it’s hot out there today. Call me when yawl ready to come home and I’ll come pick all of you up.”

The park was right around the corner so I didn’t have a problem with them going. I was going to get on my couch and snuggle up with my covers and watch the Law & Order SVU marathon. Into my third episode, I heard someone lying on my damn doorbell. All I could think was it better not be one of these damn Jehovah Witness ringing my damn doorbell like they had Jehovah with them. I don’t have anything against Jehovah Witness but they seemed to come at the most inopportune time. I get off my couch and peep through the peephole to see no other than Jaden standing on my doorstep. I stood there and counted to ten just so I can calm myself down. I can’t believe he had the audacity to bring his ass over my house after last night shenanigans. I opened my eyes and couldn’t believe that he was standing there fresh to deaf like he wasn’t about to lose his wife.

“What’s up Nic? I was seeing if you heard from Kasey. I have been trying to call her all morning and her phone going straight to the voicemail. I went by the house and it don’t look like she been home since yesterday.”

“You can’t be serious right now. You got all the nerve in the world. Why would she be there, just because you brought her a house, that doesn’t make it a home? Especially when you got baby mommas popping up leaving babies on doorsteps, you need to get your life.”

“Whatever goes on between me and my wife is none of your damn business. You need to stay in your lane and try to get your baby daddy back so he can tame your ass.”

“It’s none of my business but yet and still you standing on my doorstep asking where your wife at. If you wasn’t so busy weaving in and out of different lanes on the highway, you would know where your wife at. Oh, and, by the way, I don’t need any man to tame me. I do just fine by myself. That way I don’t have to worry about dealing with the B.S. that my friend dealing with now.”

“Yo Nic your mouth real motherfucking reckless that’s why I never liked your ratchet ass. I only put up with your ass all these years because you’re my wife bestie, sissy and that other shit yawl bitches like to call each other.”

“Touché motherfucker, the feeling is mutual. So get the fuck from in front of my door before I put some hot shit in your ass. I’m not your wife, I don’t have no love for your ass so I don’t mind laying your ass down. You better go find somebody to play with because this not what you looking for.”

“Oh, you threatening me Nic?”

“Nawl I don’t make threats. I promise you that and I put that on everything I love. I don’t write checks that I can’t cash. You can take that to the bank. Now get the fuck off my property and tell lil Ms. Jade I said hey.”

I backed away from my door and slammed it in his face. I couldn’t help but to laugh at myself. I needed a drink and I didn’t even feel bad about it because somewhere in the world it’s happy hour right now.  I heard his dumb ass burning rubber out my driveway.

CHAPTER 10 – JADEN

I tried to get some sleep, but I was so restless. I tossed and turned all night thinking about everything that happened yesterday. I didn’t decide to get up out of the bed until my ma came in the room with Jade hanging on her hip telling me that they were headed out to get Jade wardrobe and her other needs  together. I looked at Jade cooing at me looking so beautiful and it made me feel like shit. She was one of the cutest little girls I had ever seen. She was my twin and I been living reckless by denying her and not affording her the same things that I had given to my twin boys. I should have been man enough to love my children equally instead of turning my back on her because she was not conceived between me and my wife and I didn’t want to break up my home.

“Ma let me see her before you go,” I told my mother.

I held my baby in my arms and for the first time, I felt a connection to her. She began to slobber all over my face and stuck her tiny fingers in my mouth. We were enjoying each other until my mother had to speak up and say something.

“Oh, so I see you want to play the family man now. So while you in such the family mood you might as well get up and go find her mother or make things right with your wife. I love my grandbabies and all, but I’m not setup to be no full-time granny. I am going to having my own shit to do and I can’t do that with a baby on my hip all day, every day.” My mother stated.

I kissed Jade on the cheeks and handed her back to my mother.

“Nobody asked you to be a full-time granny, I just asked you to look after her until I get things straightened out with her mother or my wife. Whichever one comes first. You would think you would be happy to help out with your first granddaughter since you don’t do anything for the twins. My boys don’t even have a bond with you. Now that I sit here and think about it, they probably don’t like you anymore than I do. I bet they feel the same way I do. I respect and love you because of your status within our lives and you can cook like no other, but not one of us are stressing if we don’t talk to you from day to day. My boys never ask to call you or to come stay over your house. So why don’t you think of this as a fresh start with your granddaughter so you will have someone to take care of your when you get old and gray.” I chuckled after saying it. I knew that would get her riled up.

“Jaden damn you and your twin boys. I came in this world by myself and will die by myself.”

“I’m just playing ma, you know me and my boys love you, but do you love us.” I chuckled to myself.

“Whatever Jaden, I had you and the boys are a part of you, let me go before I curse you out early this morning and I have to stop and get this child a stroller because I will be damned if I will be walking through the mall holding a baby on my hip while I shop.”

“Alright mom, I’ll call and check on you two later.”

I grabbed my cell phone to see if I had any calls or text messages from Kasey and to my surprise there wasn’t any. I guess she was really pissed with me. I didn’t even bother to call her, I figured I would just go home, get this argument out the way, dick her down real proper and we can get back to our lives. I knew this incident was going to put a dent in my pocket. Whenever I messed up, I always had to splurge on my wife and twins to get that smile back on her face. I went into the restroom to handle my morning hygiene, letting the steaming hot waters beat on my shoulders and back to release some of the pressure I was feeling. Once I got dressed, I was headed to my own house to get my wife in order. I didn’t have my mother’s door key on this key ring so all I could do was set the alarm and lock the bottom lock.  When I pulled up in my driveway, I didn’t see Kasey’s car out-front. She rarely parked in the garage so I figured she must have gone somewhere. I got out my car and let myself into our house. I inspected the house and saw a couple of cups that were still left in the sink and the twins’ rooms nor was our bedroom immaculately cleaned.  I began to feel the heat rising up in my body. She knew better than to stay out all night. I pulled my cellphone out of my pocket and tried to call her phone, it went straight to the voicemail. I grabbed my keys and headed out the door. Kasey was very reserved, so she didn’t talk to many people. It was only two different places she could be and that would be either at her parents’ house or Nic’s bitch ass. I knew she wasn’t at her parents’ house because she never put them in our business. I made my way over to Nic’s house and tried to get some information out of her. As always Nic was on ten threatening a motherfucker and being ratchet. I swear somebody needed to put some dick in her life so she could act right. By the time Nic got done cursing me out, I was at the end of my rope with this bullshit. I sped out of her driveway headed to my next stop which was Keisha’s house. I knew that bitch didn’t have any means to go nowhere or relocate because she didn’t have shit to begin with. I pulled up to her house in the Monroe Heights Projects so I could see what the hell her problem was, leaving  our baby on my doorstep last night. She had her beat-up Toyota Tercel in her driveway so I knew she was home. I got out of my car and began to beat on her door.

“Why the hell you banging on my door like that,” Keisha asked as she opened the door.

I walked straight passed Keisha, bumping her as I walked in the house.

“What the hell were you thinking leaving my daughter on my fucking doorstep last night?” I asked her staring her down with the look of death.

“Don’t come over here acting like the big bad wolf, what you going to huff puff and blow my house down?”

“Nawl I’m not the big bad wolf but I have every mind to choke your ass out. You were out of line coming to my house in the first place. You know my wife is off limits, what the fuck was going through your rabbit ass mind when you thought it was okay to confront my wife and then leave Jade on the doorstep.”

“If your wife is so off limits, then you need to stay out the next bitch pussy. You really thought I was going to let you just come to my house when you wanted, jump up and down in my pussy, drop your seeds in every hole that I have on my body, make a baby and say fuck me. You got me fucked up. All I asked you for was a decent ride and some child support.”

“I don’t even know if that’s my baby and you think you suppose to get the things my wife gets. Fuck outta here with all that. You were driving that raggedy ass hooptie when I met you and you going to continue to drive it.”

“Yeah right you know that Jade is your baby, if Jade, not yours Jaden then where she at now huh? Why you never met me at the DNA place? Can’t be that you are scared of needles because they swab you ass now. You don’t even have to answer me; I already know the answer to it. You knew Jade was your baby, but you didn’t want to upset your happy little home. You thought it was going to be okay to just leave us in the blind, but I got news for you. If I’m unhappy, your wife going to be unhappy, you’re going to be unhappy; all of us just going to be some unhappy motherfuckers round here. So I guess you got some choices to make.”

“Keisha you a special kind of stupid, you know that? Nobody plays their trump card at the beginning of the game unless they trump tight. All you had on me is that we had a baby. You played yourself with playing it on your first hand. Now my wife knows and there is nothing else you can tell her. Then you leave Jade on my doorstep making you an unfit mother. At least, that is the way the courts will see it. So as I see it I’m running this show now. You are going to keep driving that raggedy ass car. I’ll take care of my daughter myself and since you caused me so much frustration in these last twenty-four hours the only thing you can do for me now is suck my dick. You down to give a nigga some sloppy-top.”

“Jaden get the hell out of my house I wouldn’t suck your dick with a sick bitch mouth.”

“That’s what your mouth saying, but you know you want to, that’s why you pulled that stunt last night so you could get me over here and taste this dick.”

I sat down on the couch and began to unbuckle my pants, I lifted my bottom from up from the couch a little bit so I can pull my pants down some and spring my dick from my boxers shorts.  I summoned Keisha to get over to me and give me what I wanted. I have some pent up frustration in me that I had to let loose. Keisha came over to the couch and got on her knees and begins to kiss the tip of my dick.

“Keisha I didn’t ask you to make love to my dick. I need you to suck it and suck it good. Give me some of that famous sloppy top you known for.”

As soon as I said that Keisha spit on the head of my dick and began to suck on my mushroom head. Keisha had both hands wrapped around my dick twisting each hand in different circular directions. Keisha head game was A1 and there was no denying that. I couldn’t help myself when I let out a moan and proceeded to grab her head to fuck her face. Keisha took one of her hands off of my dick and began to play with my balls. While she played with my ball, she was tightening her mouth around my dick. Keisha’s head game was better than her pussy. Then in a swift move, Keisha pushed my balls alongside my dick and begins to suck on the both of them at the same time.  I tried to hold my nut back but it was no use. My toes begin to curl up on their own and a quiver ran through my body. I pulled my dick out of her mouth and begin to squirt all over her face and hair. I looked down at Keisha and she had a scowl on my face.

“Why the fuck you nut all over my face and hair Jaden,” Keisha yelled at me.

“Bitch get up and get me a wet warm rag, so I can clean myself up. After the shit, you pulled you not even worthy enough to taste my seeds.”

Keisha stomped to the bathroom and came back with a wet wash cloth. She attempted to clean me up but I didn’t even want her touching me anymore. I cleaned myself off, stood up to fix my clothes and proceeded out the door. Just as I was walking out, I turned around to Keisha and told her I’ll let her know when she can see Jade.
