I'm in Love With a Thug 2


Lady Lissa - 2015
    That night with Lexus was one of the best nights of my entire life. I was gonna look for a place of my own today so we wouldn’t have to keep disrespecting her folks under their roof. I know if I had a daughter I wouldn’t want her disrespecting my house and I would kill the nigga who fucked around with her to make her do that. I called Prince to ask if he knew a good real estate agent and he was happy that I was moving out on my own. He congratulated me for coming as far as I had over the past six months and I was happy that he was proud of me. He did say him and his dad needed to meet with us concerning the Nigerian dealings so I said I was on my way. I showered, got dressed and headed upstairs. I was hoping to see Lexus before I left but after the dick down I gave her last night, it didn’t surprise me that she was still asleep. I did speak to her mom before I left about me possibly moving out and although surprised she said she understood. I made it over to the warehouse at 11 that morning and headed inside. The meeting lasted for about 30 minutes and then I got with Prince so he could give me information on some possible realtors. Big Jim tapped me on the shoulder and said, “My real estate agent Angie is really good. She helped us find the brownstone that we live in now and she is in the process of helping me find an estate property.” “Wow! An estate huh?” I said. “Yea I think it’s time I moved my girls out of that brownstone. I’m hoping to move within the next couple of weeks. I’d offer you the brownstone but I know you aren’t looking for anything that big,” he said. “Naw, it’s just me so something smaller would be better for me,” I said. “Well let me know if you want Angie’s information,” he said. “Aiight, thanks Big Jim,” I said. Big Jim had turned out to be a really cool dude. He was like the father I never had and I was thankful for him and Prince taking me in the way they did. I really felt like part of the family. Hopefully that would weigh in my favor when I told them about my love for Lexus. “Well I gotta go. I got some business to do at the bank and then I’m headed home. I think I might surprise Yvonne and take her out to dinner tonight,” he said as he smiled. “Sounds good Dad, y’all have fun,” Prince said. “See y’all later,” Big Jim said. Big Jim exited the warehouse and soon after we heard gunshots. We grabbed our weapons and headed outside to see what the commotion was about. All we heard when we made it out were tires screeching. When we finally looked around we saw Big Jim lying on the ground covered in blood. He was gagging on his blood as me and Prince went to see if we could help him. Someone must have called 911 because a few minutes later we heard sirens in the distance but by then it was too late. “Aaaarrrrgggghhhhhh!” Prince screamed. “Big Jim! Big Jim!” I cried but he was already dead. The police arrived at the scene but they were cops that did business with Big Jim so they already knew how to handle the scene. Big Jim had several cops, detectives and even a district attorney on his side. The ambulance came and took Big Jim to the hospital even though he was already pronounced dead. The EMT’s said it would be a while before the medical examiner would be able to come and they didn’t want to leave Big Jim just lying on the ground. Everyone in this city had a lot of respect for Big Jim.I was in a fog because I couldn’t believe this had happened. Who would wanna kill Big Jim? He was a businessman but he was smart about how he did business; he didn’t make enemies.
