I needed to get out of the house. Lisa didn't want me taking Lou anywhere and since I was Lou's walking food source then we couldn't be separated long. He still refused to take a bottle. I had tried pumping and feeding him but it wasn't working. He just wanted me. Which was sweet but his Poopoo was so dang overprotective she got pissy if people came over and wanted to hold him.
I was worried that by the time my six weeks were up and it was okay for us to have sex again she was going to be impossible to live with. I needed to do something to take the edge off or she was going to explode.
The first week staying home was easy. I was tired and Lou didn't sleep a lot at night so I wasn't physically able to go out during the day. I had felt bad about not going to Mr. Kerrington's funeral. Mino was my friend and I hated that he'd lost his father so unexpectedly. Lisa assured me that Mino would be fine after I burst into tears once I heard the news. I didn't know Mr. Kerrington so my only excuse for crying was that I was having hormonal issues called the baby blues. Or at least that is what my doctor told me.
The uncontrollable need to cry went away the day I was able to fasten my pre-baby jeans with no problem. I had gone into Lou's room and rocked him for an hour while he slept which was something his pediatrician had told me not to do. It would spoil him. It was just so hard at times. I wanted to remember these days. He would be running around the house soon enough.
When Lou turned a month old I put my foot down and told Lisa it was time we went somewhere with him. Lisa agreed that she had to get over it and we spent over an hour getting all Lou supplies together just to go eat dinner at the club. By the time we got home I was so tired I figured that maybe it wasn't worth it. We could just stay home until he was weaned. Then at that thought I promptly burst into tears because I was an awful mother.
Lisa took Lou and put him to bed for me while I went to get a shower. I was behind on sleep. I needed to stop nursing Lou at night like his pediatrician suggested but I'd been weak and kept giving in. I had to stop it.
I stepped out of the shower and stood in front of the mirror. My hips were wider now. I was positive they would always be like this. I was wearing all my pre pregnancy clothes but I didn't look like I used to look. My body was a mom body now.
"Damn. I've been trying not to look at you naked because I'm trying real hard not to resort to taking matters into my own hands but fuck... you're gorgeous."
Hearing the desire in her voice did wonders for my self-esteem. I wanted to feel sexy again. I wanted sex again. We had two more weeks until my doctor's appointment. I wasn't sure I could last that long.
I turned around and walked over to Lisa. Sex might be off limits but me making sure my woman was happy wasn't. I leaned up on my tiptoes and pressed my lips to hers and then bit down on her bottom lip. I was tired of being sweet and romantic. I wanted to be bad.
I pulled her shirt off and kissed down her chest smiling to myself as her breath hitched and she grabbed a hold of my hair. I unsnapped her jeans and pushed them down around her ankles along with her boxers. Her erection stood out proudly and my mouth watered. She was so gorgeous. Even this part of her was a turn on. Slipping one hand around the base of her cock I slid the tip into my mouth and pressed it in until the head hit the back of my throat.
"Holy fucking shit, Jennie," Lisa groaned, falling against the doorframe for support. She buried both her hands in my hair and held me there. I pulled back letting her cock spring free of my mouth with a pop and then teased the head with my tongue. Her curses and moans only made me hotter.
"Suck it, please God, baby, suck it deep again," she begged, pushing my head down over her until the head once again slid into my throat. I gagged and enjoyed the groan of pleasure coming from Lisa. She was enjoying hearing me gag. I was turning myself on.
I dropped my hand to slip between my legs and let Lisa control how much of her cock went into my mouth with her grip on my hair. "Fucking hell, are you touching yourself?" she asked, panting as she pulled back out of my mouth.
I stuck my tongue out and let her head slide off it before nodding. Then I opened my mouth wide and stared up at her while she directed it back into my mouth. "I want to play with that pussy," Lisa growled. "Don't come."
I was very close to coming so I wasn't sure I could promise her that. She began moving in and out of my mouth faster. Her breathing quickened and her cursing got worse. I was about to explode.
"I need to come," she said, pulling out of my mouth and I grabbed the backs of her thighs and held her there inside my mouth. "Jennie, baby, I'm gonna fucking come in your mouth if you don't let me go."
I sucked down hard on her and pumped her in and out of my mouth. I felt her tighten in against my tongue and both of her hands grabbed the back of my head. I heard the roar building inside her just before the first warm burst hit the back of my throat.
"Holy shit, baby. Suck it, take it... yeah, take it... motherfucker that's incredible," she chanted as her body jerked under my hands and mouth.
My thighs were soaked from my excitement. I started to slip a hand down there again when Lisa pulled me off her cock and picked me up and carried me to the bed and threw me down on it. I knew we weren't supposed to have sex yet but right now I didn't really care. I felt healed down there. Nothing felt different.
Lisa pushed my legs apart and then her head lowered and her tongue darted out to lick the wetness on the inside of my legs. I trembled, as she got closer to my heat. "I'm gonna eat this sweet pussy until you're begging me to stop," she threatened just before she slid her tongue between my folds and then flicked her piercing over my clit. I loved the way she did that. It had been awhile. I grabbed at her hair and held her over my clit. She chuckled and the vibration made me cry out in pleasure.
"My greedy little girl," she murmured pressing kisses near my entrance before sliding her tongue inside me and rubbing my clit with the pad of her thumb. My first orgasm hit me hard and I pulled at her hair, which made her growl hungrily and continue to lap at me.
"I want more," she whispered, grinning up at me wickedly. My legs felt like noodles as I let them fall open. "That's it. Open up," she praised me. God, I would do anything this woman wanted.
In my pleased, relaxed state her thumb slid inside of me and out. Then she let it run back until she found another hole. One I wasn't sure I wanted touched.
"Don't tense up. I won't hurt you. Just let me make it feel good," she promised. I relaxed, trusting her as she slid the tip of her thumb inside me while teasing my clit with her tongue. I caught myself pushing back on her thumb trying to get it deeper and Lisa groaned in approval as she kept working her thumb in and out of my ass while she made love to me with her tongue.
There was a new kind of orgasm building. I didn't understand it but it was stronger. I wanted it. "Lisa, I need," I begged, not sure what I needed.
She slipped her thumb back into my wet warmth then slid it backwards again to tuck it into the tight hole that was driving me crazy. "I know what you need, sweet Jennie and I'm gonna give it to you," she said before licking me from my clit back to the small hole she was so intent to play with. Her tongue circled the hole before going back to my clit and pulling it into her mouth while slipping her thumb inside me.
I shot off. Fireworks exploded inside me and I screamed Lisa's name over and over while my body spasmed from the pure pleasure coursing through me. I'd never felt anything like it. There were no words to describe it.
When I finally came back down to earth and managed to open my eyes Lisa was crawling back over my body to lie beside me and pull me against her. "I need to fuck you, Jennie. I need in so damn bad," she whispered.
I wanted her inside me. I just wasn't sure if I wanted her inside me... back there. Her thumb was much smaller than her cock.
"I want in your pussy, baby. Stop worrying over the other. That was just for you. I knew it would feel good," she assured me, then covered us both up with the quilt and I quickly fell asleep against her warm body.
I put Lou down for a nap and decided to take the free time to use the yoga video I'd bought on iTunes. I needed to tighten some things up on my post-baby body. Jisoo had told me to try yoga. Finding time to do yoga was another thing. The last time Lou took a nap and I'd tried to do yoga Lisa had walked in and we'd ended up naked and on the sofa again. We had become pros at oral sex. Not that Lisa needed to get any better but it was safe to say I had learned to give a killer blowjob.
The doorbell rang before the video started so I pressed pause and went to see who it was. Lisa wasn't here so it couldn't be V. They were together. Opening the door I thought as my eyes took in Rosé that maybe I should start looking out the peephole first. My heart rate picked up and I cursed myself because I'd left my phone lying on the floor in the game room. There were no pockets in my yoga pants.
"Is Lisa here?" she snapped. I mentally cringed. Lisa wasn't here and I wasn't sure I should let Rosé inside. But then how could I not let her in? She was Lisa's sister.
"She left with V a couple of hours ago. Something to do with Mino." I was talking too much. That wasn't her business.
"Are you gonna let me in? Or should I come back later?" The disgusted tone of her voice at the idea that I had the power to not let her inside what was now my house was obvious. I didn't want to let her in but then Lisa would want to see her. She'd just mentioned her sister a few nights ago. She was wondering how Rosé was and telling me her mother said she was out of the clinic and doing better.
Going against my better judgment I stepped back to let her inside. "Come on in," I said, hating the idea of being alone with her. My gun was in the car although I really didn't think I'd need that. She wasn't that kind of dangerous... I didn't think.
"So how's it feel being Mrs. Manoban?" she asked. Her tone indicated that she wasn't happy about it and that this was not a friendly question.
"Wonderful. I love your sister," I replied.
"You can't lie to me. I'm not fooled by the innocent look. You got knocked up so you could snag her. She wasn't gonna ignore her kid. You figured that out and used it. I just hope the kid's hers." The hate laced in her words made me wince.
I really wanted to call Lisa and get her home. I didn't want to talk to Rosé. Not if this was going to be a Jennie-bashing conversation.
"I'm sorry you feel that way. When you see Lou you'll see there is no doubt who he belongs too. He is Lisa's mini-me," I was mad at myself for taking her bait and defending myself.
At the mention of Lou I could see Rosé wince. She either hated the idea that we had a child or she hated that it was also my kid and she didn't want to feel connected to it. I wasn't sure. "I'm going to go grab my phone and call Lisa to let her know you're here. Please help yourself to something to drink or eat if you want it. You know where everything is."
I started for the stairs.
"Wait. I don't want to see V. Tell her not to bring V," she said in a tight voice.
"Okay. I will," I replied. I was pretty sure V didn't want to see her either but I wasn't about to let her know I knew all about that. I wasn't touching that issue.
I hurried up the steps and went to get my phone. I would call Lisa then go check on Lou... maybe I could kill all the time alone with her up here hiding. Picking up the phone I dialed Lisa's number.
"Hey baby, everything okay?" she asked when she answered.
"Um... depends on what you consider okay," I said. "Your sister is here."
"Turn around man. I need to go home now," Lisa said to V. "I'm on my way. Is she okay? Is she being nice? Did you let her in?"
"Yes, not really, and yes," I replied.
"She's not being nice. Shit, Jennie. I'm sorry. Why'd you let her in?"
"Well, because Lisa, she's your sister. I wasn't going to refuse to let your family in your house."
Lisa took a deep breath. I knew what that meant. She was frustrated. "Jennie. If I ever hear you call it my house again I am going to go apeshit. That is our house. Our fucking house. If you don't want to let someone in then don't. Call me and they can wait on the damn steps until I can get there. I just want you comfortable in your home."
"Okay. Well, I let her in because you love her and I love you. How's that for a reason?"
Lisa let out a low chuckle. "Rosé is, and will probably forever be, the one person I love who I don't expect you to be nice to. She needs to earn that shit. She hasn't. You blow her off, kick her ass out, whatever you want to. Don't you put up with her mouth spewing bullshit."
I decided I wouldn't tell her about her sister accusation that Lou might not be hers. She'd lose it. "Just hurry," I begged.
"Five minutes away," she promised.
I hung up and slipped the phone into my sports bra before going to check on Lou. Opening the door, I peeked in to find him kicking and gurgling at the sea creatures hanging from the mobile. Smiling, I walked over and his little eyes shifted until they locked on me. He kicked harder at the sight of me and my heart squeezed.
"That was not a very good nap," I told him, leaning over to pick him up. "I didn't even get to do any yoga and mommy's bottom needs some yoga."
His little head tried to burrow in my chest. It wasn't time for him to eat but when he woke up he wanted in my shirt. Just like his Poopoo. Grinning I walked him over to the changing table and put a fresh diaper on him while he fussed. He hated having his diaper changed.
I picked him up and kissed his puckered up lips. The tears stopped and he opened his mouth trying to get something to eat again. "Not now mister. You just ate an hour ago," I told him before heading out the door.
I didn't want to take him downstairs. I was afraid of what Rosé would say about him. I didn't think I could deal with it if she was mean to my baby. The front door chimed and I let out a sigh of relief. Lisa was home.
"Poopoo's home," I whispered.
I carried Lou downstairs and listened for Lisa and Rosé's voices. It wasn't hard. She was already raising her voice. Lisa must have come in correcting her for making me feel uncomfortable. I decided against taking Lou into the kitchen to hear his Poopoo yelling at Rosé. We went out the front door. Lou loved going outside and watching the waves. The sea breeze would drown out all Rosé's angry words.
We walked under the house and out toward the beach.
"Jennie, could you bring Lou up here?" Lisa asked me looking down at me from the porch. Apparently, she wanted Lou around Rosé. I understood her wanting her sister to meet her kid but she hated the momma so this might not be wise. I paused and looked down at Lou.
The mommy in me wanted to take him and run back upstairs and lock ourselves safely inside his room. But he was Lisa's child too. I pressed a kiss to his temple. "Poopoo's sister Rosé isn't very nice. You're going to have to learn to overlook her," I whispered in his ear, more for my sake than his since he had no idea what I was saying.
When I reached the top step Lisa was waiting on me. "If you want me to take him and you not go in there I will. But if you want to go in there I swear to you that she will behave or I'll throw her out of this house."
I wasn't about to send my baby to see the big bad wolf and not go with him. If he had to face Rosé so did I. I held him tighter to me and shook my head. "I want to be with him."
Lisa nodded. I could see by the look on her face that she understood. She opened the door for us and stepped back so I could walk inside with Lou.
Rosé was sitting on a barstool with a pissed off snarl on her face. She spun around and her eyes went to Lou. I could see the moment she realized that each small feature was Lisa's. He didn't even have my eyes. He was all Lisa.
"Guess he is yours after all," she said. I stopped and took a step back bumping into Lisa's chest. Her arm came around me and she held me there.
"You wanted to see him. Be careful what you say to his mother. Apologize for that last stupid ass remark or I'm going to walk you to the door."
Rosé's eyes flared with fury and I had a feeling Lisa had just started something we really didn't need in our home. But she took a deep breath and lifted her hate filled eyes to me. "I'm sorry," she snapped. She didn't mean it but the fact Lisa had made her say it was worth it.
"Can I hold him?" Rosé asked, lifting her gaze to Lisa's.
I went stiff as a board. If Lisa told her yes I was making a run for it with Lou. There was only so much she could ask of me.
"Probably not a good idea. With you glaring at his momma like that I don't think she's gonna feel safe handing him over."
Rosé scowled. "He's your kid too."
"He is. But Jennie is his mother. I don't let anything happen that she isn't comfortable with."
"God, Lisa where did your balls go?"
"That's strike two, sis."
Rosé rolled her eyes and stood up from the stool. She looked back at Lou and her eyes softened a little. He was hard not to love. He was as beautiful as his Poopoo. "Mom would love to meet him," Rosé said, pulling her purse strap up on her arm. "You should at least send her a photo."
"Mom didn't give a shit about her own babies, Rosé. You know that. Why would she care about mine?"
Rosé didn't flinch. She only shrugged. "Good point."
Lou started to fuss in my arms. He was trying to get to the goods again. I shifted him in my arms and Lisa reached for him. "Give him to me. He won't be thinking about milk when I've got him."
I handed Lou to her and he instantly calmed down and stared up at Lisa. He was fascinated with his Poopoo.
"You're good with him. I'm not surprised. You've been playing dad for as long as I can remember," Rosé said. It was the first nice thing she'd said since she'd gotten here.
"I'm only good at it because I've watched Jennie. She's taught me everything."
Rosé didn't like that answer and it wasn't true. She'd been a natural from day one. I started to argue when Rosé pushed her stool back scraping it across the floor. "I just wanted to see the kid and let you know I'm doing better. If you want to see me I'm in town for a few days. I'm not up for anymore bonding with your little family here so keep that in mind."
I watched as she stalked out of the kitchen and down the hall toward the front door without another word. Lisa didn't respond.
"And she's still a bitch," Lisa muttered.
I turned to look up at her and she was frowning. "I'm sorry that she talked to you like that," she said.
"I ignore everything she says. She wants me to be the villain and I'm afraid she always will. It's okay. I didn't marry her," I replied.
Lou heard my voice and he moved his head to look at me before he started crying. He wanted me for my boobs. I smiled and reached out to take him. "I'm going to have to feed him again. He must not have gotten full last time. He's determined to eat again."
Lisa handed him to me. "Lucky little shit."
I kicked her and she laughed that full belly laugh that I loved.
"You hungry?" she asked.
"Yes. Starving. Can you make me a sandwich?" I asked her before walking to the living room to get comfortable in the recliner.
"Anything for you," she replied.
Jisoo was waiting on me at the club for drinks. I had fed Lou and left him with Lisa so that I could go have some girl time. She also wanted me to officially meet Somi. I waved at Jimin as I passed by the kitchen and hurried into the dining room.
Somi and Jisoo were over by the windows that overlooked the gulf. Somi turned and smiled at me when she noticed me approaching. I wasn't sure exactly what happened with the police, I just knew that it had been a very bad misunderstanding The rumor was that Mino threatened the officer who'd arrested her. V said he'd thrown him up against the wall. Reminded me of something Lisa would do.
"About time you got here. I was about to have my second mimosa without you," Jisoo said cheerily.
"Sorry, I had to feed Lou before I left him. He was more hungrier than normal. But you know I can't drink mimosas. I'm nursing. However, I will take a tall glass of orange juice."
"Nursing does not sound fun at all. Except for those amazing knockers you have I see no reason to do it," Jisoo replied.
I chose to ignore her. She wouldn't understand. Instead, I looked over at Somi. "I'm glad we are finally getting to talk," I told her.
"Me too. I'm sorry about the last time we met. I can't imagine what you thought of me after...," she stopped and trailed off.
"I thought that there had been a horrible mistake and while in labor I ordered Lisa to get in touch with Mino and let him know there was an emergency," I assured her.
Somi let out a sigh. "Yeah, it was a crazy day. But thank you. I didn't know until later that you'd gone into labor that day."
Jisoo ordered another mimosa for herself and Somi. I told the new waitress that I just wanted orange juice.
"So, you aren't working for Mino anymore I hear," Jisoo said to Somi.
She frowned and shook her head. "No. He won't let me. He likes to keep me with him most of the time. We're dealing with some things..." she trailed off again. I could tell she didn't want to talk about her personal life and I couldn't blame her. She'd just met us.
"I can't keep you bitches in the kitchen. What am I supposed to do if all my good help keeps hooking up with the rich ass men in this club and leaving me behind?" Jimin said as he pulled out the fourth chair at the table and sat down.
"I still work here," Jisoo reminded him.
"You don't work in the kitchen so you're no help to me. I'm almost scared for Mino to hire any more attractive females. I need someone helping me who doesn't catch these horny ass sexy fuckers' eyes," Jimin hissed then winked at us.
I looked around the table and smiled. A year ago I was lost. I didn't have anyone. Walking into Lisa Manoban's house that night had changed everything. I sat back and listened as Jimin told us about his bad date the night before and how he wanted in Marco's pants. Marco was apparently the new chef. Jisoo agreed that Marco's pants were very fine. I looked across the table at Somi smiling as she listened to them talking and I recognized that look. I think she'd found a home too.
"So, Jennie, how's the sex after marriage and baby? We gotta know, girl. Is Lisa Manoban still smoking up the sheets?" Jimin asked his eyes twinkling with anticipation. He had a serious crush on my wife.
"Not your business, Jimin. You need to move on from your fascination with my woman. It's too late now. I have her," I replied.
"Hell, you're no fun. I just want details. Really descriptive details. What about you Somi? Wanna tell me how the boinking is with Mino? Is he all bossy and shit? That just sounds hot."
Somi's face turned bright red and she laughed. "I'm not going there with you either, Jimin," she replied.
Jimin stood up and stuck out his bottom lip. "And here I always thought female gossip was naughty and fun. Y'all are boring me to tears." He waved a hand dramatically at us before turning and heading back to the kitchen.
"Now he's gone I'd like to know how sex is with Lisa and Mino," Jisoo said with a smirk
I shook my head and glanced over at the door as V came sauntering in by himself. He looked like he was deep in thought. He hadn't been around lately and I figured it was because he was out of town again. Something looked like it was bothering him. He glanced up and his eyes met mine.
A small smile touched his lips and he winked before walking over and taking a seat at a table by himself.
"V's back in town for the summer. He seems different though," Jisoo said, apparently thinking the same thing I was.
"Yeah, he seems off," I agreed.
"You play with fire and you get burned. Rosé is all kinds of screwed up. She had to fuck with his head. I still can't believe they were messing around though," Jisoo whispered.
"Rosé came by the other day," I said, looking back at Jisoo then Somi. "She still hates me."
Jisoo sniffed. "Who cares? Bitch."
Somi's eyes went wide and I realized we were talking about people she didn't know. It was rude.
"So, Somi, I've been gone and I missed all the action. Tell me how exactly did you meet Mino? By working here?"
Somi shook her head and smirked. "Not exactly. We met back in September... it was... kind of a one-night stand," she said her cheeks turning bright pink.
This was going to be juicier than I thought. "Oh, this sounds fun," I replied and leaned forward to hear the rest of it.
Lou was now taking a bottle. Jisoo's aunt, and my old boss, Darla had agreed to babysit for us so we could go down to the club's bonfire tonight. It was the kick off to the summer season and it was a members' only event. Lisa hadn't wanted to go but Jisoo had called and begged. I felt guilty for not having enough time to spend with her anymore so I'd talked Lisa into it.
Tomorrow was my doctor's appointment and Lisa's patience was very thin. I was expecting her to go with me then attack me in the parking lot. I wouldn't complain but I wasn't going to give her any ideas.
V had called to see if we were going and so had Mino. He'd wanted to see if I would help keep Somi company in case he had to deal with anything during the bonfire. Jisoo was also supposed to be sticking close to her. They'd become friends, which only confirmed my belief that she'd be a good friend. Jisoo was picky.
The fire was larger than any other bonfires on the beach because the city couldn't control what happened on club property the way they could on the public beach. Jisoo had said this party was the 'don't miss' of the season. Which sounded good to me. Lisa and I needed to get out.
"You sure you don't want to go change into something else before we get out of this car?" Lisa asked, looking over at me.
Frowning, I looked down at my new outfit. I'd bought it last week. It was a white linen skirt that hit mid thigh and a pale yellow off the shoulder top that just met the waist of my skirt. It only flashed skin if I raised my arms. "You said that at the house. Do you not like it?" Maybe my body wasn't ready for me to wear something like this yet.
Lisa grabbed my chin and locked her gaze with mine. "You're mouthwatering, Jennie. I don't like knowing that other men are looking at you."
Oh. Well, in that case. "I am sure I don't want to change. I like it when you get all possessive. Turns me on," I told her with a wink and opened my door.
"You're killing me, woman," she said with a slam of her door.
Lisa reached down and took my hand in hers as we walked down to the beach. The sun had already set but the bonfire lit up our path once we got halfway. Jisoo was waving at us and jumping up and down as soon as we stepped into the light.
"Guess she wants us to come over there," Lisa said with an amused tone.
"Good guess," I replied.
Jisoo was already three sheets to the wind when we got over to them. Bobby only rolled his eyes when she staggered over to hug me. She smelled like tequila. "Hey you, you're late!"
"No, they're not. You just started drinking the hard stuff right off the bat and now you're too drunk to know how long we've been here," Bobby piped up from his seat. He also looked a little annoyed with her.
I glanced around for Somi but I didn't see her. "Where's Somi and Mino?" I asked Jisoo who smiled at me like she had no idea who I was talking about.
"I saw them a little bit ago but Mino had to deal with some of the staff smoking pot. Not sure what happened to Somi," Bobby said.
Crap. We were supposed to be watching out for her. "I might need to go look for her," I whispered to Lisa.
"I'll go with you. Not sure I want you walking around alone," she said.
"No. Just sit and visit with Bobby. Get a drink. I'm just going to make one big sweep of the area and come back. You don't have to come with me."
Lisa frowned and I pushed her toward the free chair beside Bobby. "Go," I ordered and looked back at Jisoo. "I'm gonna go find Somi," I told her.
"Me too! I wanna go too!" Jisoo said, raising her hand like she was in school.
"Nope. Your drunk ass is staying right here," Bobby replied.
Jisoo stuck out her bottom lip and plopped down on Bobby's lap. "You're no fun," she whined.
I didn't wait on her to ask again. I turned and made my way down closer to the fire. I saw several familiar faces. I got a hug from Jimin and met his date for the night but I still didn't see Somi. I circled around and headed up to the outer reaches of the bonfire light to see if she was hiding in the darkness. I didn't see anyone.
I started to turn around and head back to Lisa when I heard a high pitched voice screeching. It wasn't a frightened voice, more like one that was upset about something. I took a step closer to the parking lot and heard another voice, definitely female and very southern trying to calm the other voice down. I glanced back in the direction I'd left Lisa but she didn't see me.
I headed back to the parking lot following the voices. The closer I got I could make out more words. There wasn't anyone in the parking lot so where were they? I walked over to where we had parked our car and stopped.
"No, please. Just, talk to Mino. I didn't do anything. I swear. Don't, oh god." The softer voice was scared.
"I'm done talking to Mino. You took what was mine. He chose you. Fine. He can have your skanky crazy ass. But first you're gonna fucking pay for taking what was mine." A loud slap and a cry of pain followed her words. "Hurts, don't it, bitch? You're a psycho. Why Mino thinks you can make him happy I don't know. He'll learn. He will fucking learn to screw with me," the angry female said again and another cry of pain came from who I now knew was Somi. I had no idea who the other woman was but she was hurting Somi. I thought about going to get Lisa but then she could have seriously hurt her by then.
I didn't need Lisa. I wasn't sure who the psycho was but I could handle her. I reached into my purse and pulled out my key and quietly unlocked the door. Slipping my hand under the seat, I pulled out my gun and made sure the clip was empty then checked the safety.
I didn't intend to shoot anyone. No need for it to be loaded. I just needed to scare the bully off and then call Mino. Hopefully, she hadn't hurt Somi too bad. Another cry from Somi made me move faster. I followed the voices around a building.
I saw the other woman first. She was holding Somi by the hair of her head and calling her crazy again. She was real hung up on the fact she thought Somi was crazy. This bitch was pissing me off.
I held the gun and pointed it at the woman before letting her know she had company.
"Let her go," I said and watched as the woman spun around still holding Somi's hair.. Somi let out another sob.
"What the fuck?" the woman said, looking at me like I was the one who was crazy.
"Let go of her hair and step away from her," I said, loud and clear so she didn't misunderstand.
She laughed. "That's not even real. I'm not an idiot. Go mind your own fucking business and stop playing Charlie's Angels."
I flicked the safety off and cocked the gun. "Listen, bitch. If I wanted to I could pierce both your ears from here and not mess your fucking hair up. Go ahead, test me." I kept my voice even and cold. I wanted her to believe me because I really didn't want to have to shoot at her to prove my point.
Her eyes went wide and she dropped Somi's hair. From the corner of my eye, I watched Somi quickly move away.
"Do you have any idea who I am? I could end you. Your ass is going to sit in jail for a very long time for this," she snarled, although I could hear the fear in her voice.
"We're in the dark and there are three of us. You don't have a scratch on you. Somi's bleeding and bruised and it is our word against yours. I don't care who you are. This doesn't look good for you."
She moved back away from me some more while keeping her eyes on my gun. "My daddy will hear about this. He'll believe me," she said with a shaky voice.
"Good. Mino will hear about it too and he'll sure as hell believe me."
The woman let out a hard angry laugh and shook her head. "My daddy can buy this town. You have fucked with the wrong woman."
"Really? Bring it on 'cause right now you're looking at a woman with a loaded gun who can hit a moving target. So please... bring. It. On."
Somi was curled up with her arms wrapped around her knees as she sat silently watching us.
"Who are you?" the woman asked, for the first time taking me seriously.
"Jennie Manoban," I replied.
"Shit. Lisa Manoban has married a hick with a gun. I find this hard to believe," she spat.
"I'd believe her. She's holding the fucking gun," Lisa's voice came from behind me.
The woman's eyes went wide. "Are you kidding me? This town is insane. All of you."
"You were the one beating up an innocent woman over a man in the dark," I reminded her. "You're the one who looks insane here."
The woman held up her hands. "Fine. I'm over this. I'm done," she yelled and walked up to the parking lot. I lowered the gun and put the safety back on before handing it to Lisa then running over to Somi. Her big blue eyes were wide with disbelief.
"Did you really just hold a gun on her?" she asked with awe in her voice.
"She was putting a beating on you," I reminded her. She buried her face in her hands and let out a shaky laugh. "Ohmygod. She's crazy. I swear I was beginning to think she was going to beat me until I was unconscious. I kept thinking I was going to zone out and then she'd really hurt me." She glanced up at me. "Thank you."
I held my hand out to her. "Can you stand up? Or do you want to sit here while I call Mino?" She slipped her hand in mine.
"I want to stand. I need to stand up," she said.
I pulled her up. "You got a phone?"
She nodded and pulled one out of her pocket. I waited while she dialed Mino.
"Hey."
"Actually, no not really. I had an incident with Angelina."
"No... no... she's gone. Uh, Jennie showed up and... uh scared her off."
"Jennie is still here and so is her wife."
"Behind the parking attendant building."
"Okay. I love you too."
She hung up and looked up at me through thick eyelashes. "He's on his way."
"Good. We'll wait with you." I opened my purse and pulled out a wet wipe. I was a mommy now so I had those on me at all times. "You want to clean the blood off your lip before he gets here and goes after Angelina?"
Somi nodded and took the wipe from me. "Thanks."
I turned around to look at Lisa who was watching me closely but not speaking.
Two headlights came barreling up the road and slammed on their brakes just beside where we were standing. Mino jumped out of the truck and came running down to where I stood with Somi.
"Dammit!" he roared pulling her into his arms. "God, baby I am so sorry. She's gonna pay for this," he assured her as his hands ran over her checking to make sure she was okay.
"It's okay. I think Jennie scared her," Somi said against his chest. Mino looked back at me and frowned.
"What did Jennie do?" Mino asked.
"She pointed a gun at her and threatened to pierce her ears," Somi said.
Mino cocked an eyebrow. "So, Alabama pulled her gun out again? Thanks, Jennie," he said before kissing Somi's head and whispering into her hair words that were not meant for anyone else.
"I'm glad I found them. You need to do something about that woman; she's a crazy bitch," I said before turning to walk back to Lisa. She slipped her hand around my waist and held me against her.
"Thank you," Somi called out.
"You're welcome," I replied then Lisa and I turned to head back toward the parking lot.
"I'm not gonna be able to wait until tomorrow. You fucked that up when I came around the corner and you were standing there like a badass holding a gun on Angelina. I think I may have come in my damn jeans when you told her you could pierce her ears from there. I'm fucking that sweet little badass pussy tonight."
I tried to bite my lip to keep from laughing but I couldn't.
Lisa grinned. "Glad you agree there's no more waiting. I'm ready to get lost up in my heaven again."
I stopped walking and stood on my tiptoes to kiss her cheek. "I love you, Lisa Manoban."
"Good 'cause I'm not ever letting your sexy ass get too far away from me again."
"How far is too far?" I asked
"It's all too far. I want you right here beside me... forever."
THE END
