Chapter 4: We Gonna Do That Gas Thing?
Letty walked into the house, well limped was more like it. She had gotten checked on the ice pretty hard but she shook it off. She went into the kitchen and grabbed the bottle of whiskey taking a shot of it. Angel and Sofi ran upstairs to do god knows what. Jeremiah had gone home to take the girls somewhere and Jack was in his room being Jack. Bobby was sitting in the living room watching you guessed it Hockey. Letty limped into the living room "Do you ever not watch hockey?" She asked sitting in the chair. Bobby flipped her off 'does it matter what I watch?" He asked not taking his eyes off the TV. She sighed laying her head on the back of the chair. Her side was killing her. Bobby would glance over at her every few minutes. He wanted to take her in his arms and just kiss her. As he went to get up his cell phone rang. He answered it "Yeah? Ok when are we supposed to meet him? Ok." He closed the phone looking at Letty. "We have to go meet mom's lawyer. Letty nodded "Ok, I'll stay here with Sofi." Bobby smirked "Alright. I'll see you when we get back." He kissed her fore head and went to get Jack and Angel. Once they left Sofi came downstairs. Letty had turned on UFC and was stretched out on the couch. Sofi saw the bruises on her side "Oh my god. Who did that?" She asked. Let smirked "Bobby and me." Sofi laughed sitting on the chair "So you two made up?" Letty sighed "I have no idea." Sofi nodded watching the TV.
~ At the Lawyer~
"Gentlemen, l am truly sorry about your mother although l only met Evelyn the one time...she made quite an impression. I knows it's difficult to deal with mundane financial matters while your heart still grieves for a loved one." The lawyer said looking at all of them. Jack was looking at paper work "So how much do we get?" He asked which resulted in a hard smack from Bobby.
"This is the contents of your mother's safety-deposit box. I'll leave you to look through it." The lawyer said putting the box in front of Bobby and turning to walk out. Bobby flipped it open handing the birth certificates and adoption papers to them. Angel looked at him "I got any papers in there?" Bobby shook his head no. "You got any papers in there?" He asked watching Bobby shake his head no again. Jack reached in pulling out a ticket stub "Woodstock?" Bobby laughed "You didn't know mom was a hippie?" He looked through seeing a letter addressed to Letty. He picked it up and put it in his pocket. He saw a wad of cash. "Here we go." He said picking it up. He started to count it dividing it up between himself, Angel and Jerry. Jack looked at him "What about me?" He asked holding his hand out. Bobby picked up a pearl necklace and handing it to him "These will look good on you." He said laughing and closing the box. "You're fucking with me" Jack yelled at him. They walked out to Bobby and Jerry's car. "Hey lets go get a drink. I just gotta pick up Letty." Bobby said getting into the car and driving to the house. Letty had already talked to bobby so she was waiting outside for him. She walked over and got into the front seat. Bobby handed her the letter "This was in mom's deposit box." Letty took the letter and nodded. She would read it when she was alone. The pulled up at the bar Angel and Jerry had already arrived. They went in and sat at the bar. "Your attention, please. I wanna make a toast. To Evelyn Mercer. The greatest mother four degenerate bastards ever had." He said as they all raised their shot glass up. Taking the shot Bobby laughed "Johnny pour me and my brothers another shot, and a warm glass of milk for the girl." He said looking at Letty. She smirked "Man I will drink you under the table." Bobby looked at her "We're talking about whiskey here Let not sperm." He took his shot. Letty bit her tongue taking another shot. They had moved to a table and Jack was getting pretty buzzed "Jack drinks Jack, Jack drinks Jack." He was singing. Bobby looked at him "Jack licks ass crack and ball sack" Jack smiled "Jack doesn't lick ass crack and ball sack! Jack likes boobs. Jack gots fans Jack's got lots of fans" They all laughed as Johnny walked over "I'm real sorry about your guy's mom. The neighborhood is really tore up about it. Someone ought to step up to them Gangs." Johnny said looking at Bobby. "What gangs Johnny B?" He asked. Jeremiah sighed "Same old Bobby. Mama always said, 'as bright as Bobby is, he just does not like to think.'' Ain't no good gonna come from this." Letty shook her head "She's the only woman that ever gave a damn, man. The least we can do is go bang on a few doors and see what happens. We owe her that much. Why are you acting like such a bitch, Jerry?" Jerry laughed standing up "So Yall are going to go shoot the town up cause Yall mad?" He asked. Angel looked at him "Why not man?" "Don't call me when y'all get shot up. This is Detroit, in case y'all forgot" Jerry said as he walked out of the bar. Bobby turned to Johnny "So tell me what you heard." They listened to Johnny tell them what he heard. Now they were in the parking lot of an old factory where a gang party was going on. Bobby had popped the trunk. Bobby looked at Angel "You got a burner?" He was holding up his gun. Angel shook his head" I flew in." Bobby sighed handing it over "Be careful with my baby." He told him as he handed Letty the shotgun. She smiled as he gave it to her. Angel looked at him "You got ammo?" Bobby rolled his eyes "It's loaded. Here Jack carry the gas can." He handed it to him. Jack grabbed it and looked at him "We gonna do that gas thing?" That was jack stating the obvious. "Yeah we're gonna do the gas thing. The only other thing people are afraid of next to being burned alive is being eaten alive." Letty told him. Bobby went to close the trunk before Jack stopped him "Wait what I get?" Bobby looked at him "Oh you're coming too? Here poke em with this sweetheart" He said handing Jack a crow bar. Letty laughed walking up to the building. Bobby looked at her before he yelled out "FIVE 0 I WANNA SEE YOU'RE HANDS!" He walked in Let right behind him. They got to the room where the guy they were looking for was at. Bobby walked over making him sit down before he poured the gas on him. He took the lit cigarette from Jack. "Know you're not gonna tell me what l wanna know, so l'm gonna light your little bitch ass on fire. Then l'm gonna watch you run around here like a chicken with his head cut off, lighting all your little friends on fire ls that what you want? Which one of your boys shot up the liquor store on the Street? The police got witnesses, bra." He said. Letty was holding the shotgun up to him. Bobby looked at him "This is the talking part." The guy who couldn't have been older than 20 looked at him "Man, that shit was counterfeit as a motherfucker, 't nobody playing no basketball when that shit went down, okay? Why you think cops ain't arrest nobody?" Angel walked over "How do you know if you weren't there?" The kid looked at him "Because, bitch, police said those people wasn't killed till 11 so they turn the court lights out at 10!" Bobby looked at his watch before grabbing the guy. Letty was behind Bobby. They got to the courts at 10:02. "Man these fucking lights are still on" Bobby said looking at him. Angel was talking to the dude. "Man let's pop this mother fucker." Bobby said cocking his gun. "Bobby takes it easy" Jack whispered. Bobby shook him off grabbing the guy and dragging him backwards. "Hey man there gonna shut off. Look!" he yelled making Letty turn the lights were shutting off. "You're lucky, Get the fuck outta here." She said to him. He kept running his mouth "You talk too much." Angel said before punching him in the jaw. They rode home in silence. Angel and Sofi ran upstairs and Jack looked at Bobby. "It was a questionable kill Jack." Bobby told his as he took his jacket off. Letty walked up to Bobby's room. She noticed her bag was sitting in the corner so she changed before sitting down to read the letter Evelyn had wrote her. Her hands shook as she opened the letter.
Dear Letty,
I know if you're reading this then something has happened to me. I wish I could have seen you again and maybe I have. I am so sorry for what happened between you and Bobby. I wish I could tell you everything will be ok. I hope you have a good life. The life I know you deserve. Don't ever let anyone tell you that you are not worth anything. I know you have had a hard time with your life but you will be able to make the best of it like you always do. Please don't blame bobby for making you leave. He didn't want you to have to wait for him while he was away. That boy loves you more then you will ever know. When he came back home he would just sit outside and look for you. Hopping you would forgive him. I can only hope someday you two will get past your problems and just love each other. I love you like you are my daughter. So if I am gone, please don't be sad. Smile remember all the good times we shared. Watch out for Bobby, You know he needs someone to love him and keep him out of trouble. I remember watching you and him and watching the love between you too grow. I love you Letty
Evelyn.
Letty looked up and she was crying. She missed Miss Evelyn way too much. She got up opening the door to see Bobby sitting on his mom's bed. She wiped her eyes and walked over to him. He had tears running down his eyes. She wrapped her arms around him and cried. She cried for Miss Evelyn and for her and Bobby. She pulled his arm and took him into his bedroom. She closed the door and lay on the bed with him. Once she was in his arms she let out a loud sob. He rubbed her side and kissed her head, but didn't say anything. He knew she needed to cry. She fell asleep on him, clinging to him. He kissed her forehead before whispering "I love you Letty."
