"Girl, I'm telling you he's over there right now with that a bitch" Sapphire, her cousin, instigated, jumping up and down in her stool, looking down at her phone.

"How do you know that?" Egypt asked, curious. She knew her man couldn't be that stupid to really be out in the open with another female. 

"The bitch posted a picture of them on Facebook." Sapphire answered, reaching over the marble kitchen island as she pushed the screen of her phone in front of Egypt face.

Egypt squinted her eyes as she looked over the photo to see a smiling busted down light skinned chick, that had on a white wife beater that her pierced nipples were peeking through, and the left side of a man face hugging her from behind.

Instantly, she recognized the man holding the female was her Taz. The scar on his cheek that he got in a fight a few years ago gave him away.

"The bitch uploaded the picture up a few minutes ago." Sapphire added, pulling the phone away from out of Egypt face.

Egypt shook her head, sighing as she looked around the kitchen in their new five bedroom, three and a half bathroom, and pool home.

She should really call it her home because she was the one that mostly slept in the house. It seem like Taz forgot where his home was.

"So, what you wanna do?" Sapphire questioned, raising her eyebrow. She been itching for a good fight, she did fell a little bad that she had to put her on game because how her cousin was.

Egypt was a small woman, standing at only five foot three, with clear dark chocolate skin, built like a Victoria Secret's model, with no ass or breasts, but a really pretty face.

Egypt wasn't really a confrontational type of person, she was quiet and mostly kept to herself. She had  fought most of her battles growing up because kids knew she was an easy target.

Sapphire felt Taz got over on her cousin more because of her silent and passive ways.

"I'll just wait for him to come home," Egypt said, not really wanting to go to the projects.

"You need to go over there not to only beat her ass, but his too!" Sapphire exclaimed, then added. "This nigga out here got you looking stupid."

Egypt tried to ignore the truth in Sapphire words, on one too many occasions to count she got numerous phone calls to her phone saying how they was messing with her man.

But like any guy, Taz denied everything. 

All Egypt can blame her acceptance of the bullshit that came with being his girl Is love-love made even the smartest people do and accept the craziest things.

"Let's go!" Egypt said, knowing if she didn't do anything, she will never live down this moment by her cousin.

"Yeah, that what I'm taking about!" Sapphire encouraged, grabbing her purse before following her out the door.

They hopped into Egypt's new bright pink Jeep Wrangler, Taz copped for her randomly, she never asked him for the jeep.

Egypt pulled out the driveway, before speeding towards the projects.

Egypt slowly creeped towards the front of the projects to see girls dancing to music someone was blasting out their car, guys gambling, and little kids playing double dutch.

"There that nigga go!" Sapphire pointed him out, leaning against his new Benz, boo'ed up with the chick they saw on Facebook.

"Girl, hurry up and park the car!" Sapphire said, anxious as she quickly wiped on some Vaseline on her face that she always carried around.
