The Game: Blood, Sweat, & Tears

Tables Turned

Ace

"She had a another nigga in my house!" I said pacing back and forth in Pepper's living room. "A old ass nigga at that!" I said as my fist balled up. 

Pepper just sat on the couch sipping her tea.

"All this time I thought she was being faithful to a nigga." I said as thoughts ran through my head.

Pepper still didn't say anything. She just continued to sip her tea.

"Are you even listening to me Pep?"

"Yea." She said.

"Then why you ain't saying shit!"

She sighed. "Because I knew."

"So you knew she was cheating on me the whole time while I was in jail and you didn't even bother to tell me!"

"Ace it wasn't that serious."

"Fuck you mean it wasn't that serious!"

Pepper couldn't even her words out.

Abby came down the steps with red eyes indicating that I woke her up with all my yelling.

"Ace?" She said shocked to see me.

"Did you know?" I asked Abby.

"Know what-"

"DID YOU KNOW LAUREN WAS CHEATING ON ME!?"

Abby sighed. "Yea."

"Fuck both of y'all." I said and started walking to her front door.

"Daddy?" I heard.

I turned and saw Lexi standing the top of the stairs.

"DAD!" She yelled then ran down the steps over to me, almost knocking me down.

"Oh my gosh I can't believe your here." Lexi hugged me hard. "I missed you so much."

I hugged her back. "I missed you too."

"Can we go home now?" She looked up at me.

I sighed. I really wasn't trying to go back home right now. I didn't even want to look at Lauren.

"Please dad?"

"Yea. Go tell your brother to come on."

"Yay. Okay." She said and ran back up the steps.

"I'm sorry Ace." Pepper said.

"Whatever man. Your fake as hell for this shit. And you are too." I looked at Abby.

A couple of minutes later Luke and Lexi came back downstairs.

"Wassup dad." Luke said giving me a manly hug.

"Hey son."

We walked outside and got into the car. I started driving back home.
