Jodecy Devry|Tootie.

one month later.

(this chapter very much means a lot to me and is a wholeeeeeee lotta foreshadowing, so pay attention.)

              "NEHEMIAH 8:10 reads, "Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength." I don't think y'all heard me, Nehemiah 8:10 reads, "Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength." Can I get a amen?!"

"Amen!" I said along with the congregation.

"Can I get a amen?!" my Papa, Pastor Joseph, shouted.

"Amen!" we said louder.

"Hebrews 12:11, when you have it say amen." he said and I grabbed my bible, flipping through it until I got to the page.

"Amen!" the congregation shouted. 

"This beautiful morning I would like to talk to you from the subject there's nothing as powerful as a changed mind. I'll say that again, there is nothing as powerful as a changed mind." he said and I nodded. "You can change your friends, you can change your wardrobe, you can change your hair, your address, but if you do not change your mind, the same experience will perpetuate itself over and over again because everything outwardly changed but nothing inwardly changed. There is nothing as powerful as a changed mind."

"Preach pastor!" somebody from the congregation shouted making the rest rise in an uproar.

"Hebrews 12:11, now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby. Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; and make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. Follow peace with all men, and holiness, with no man shall see the Lord: looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any rooted bitterness springing up trouble you, thereby many be defiled; Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears."

"You may be seated in the present of the lord we gon have a lil bible study, is that alright?" he asked as we all sat down. 

"Yes." we said together making him smile.

"That's good, that's good. The writer of Hebrews is telling us that we're being parented, being parented by a God who doesn't believe in time out." he chuckled and so did a few people in the congregation. "There are things that when you are his, that if you do them, there are repercussions..."

"Papa you was preaching today." I said as he scooped rice onto my plate.

"Sure was, had me nearly in tears." Mocha said nodding her head. "Especially when you hit us with that, 2 Corinthians 5:7, for we walk by faith, not by sight. I felt that."

I nodded in agreement. "I liked Isaiah 41:10, So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. That was what I needed to hear."

Mocha and I attended church together every Sunday, most times Pooter would come but he didn't like getting up early. My Papa had been preaching since I was a little girl, I'd always attended church, I became very close with God once my mama died though.

My Papa's sermons would touch on multiple topics, you'd never get bored, it's like whatever you were feeling he'd preach on and that was one of my favorite reasons I'd go to church.

It's always something to preach about.

"Thank y'all, y'all know with this Corona mess folks is going crazy in the congregation, had to bring them back to was really important." he said as I chewed on my chicken. "Make sure y'all clean up the mess in here before y'all go."

I nodded. "What you tryna get into today?"

Mocha shrugged. "I don't know, Pooter mama barbecuing we can go over there."

"Bitch you're eating right now."

"Okay and what about it, Tootie?" she asked as I scooped the last of my rice into my mouth. "You and Meer be fucking?"

"Girl no." I said going to the sink and washing my plate off.

"You lying?"

"No I'm not Mocha." I said starting to clean the kitchen up so that we could go once she finished eating.

"Well why not?"

"Because I just met him a couple months ago and he's not just about to stick his dick in me.." I said looking at her like he was dumb. "I don't even know that man, and he scare me."

"Scare you how?" she asked burping.

"He so damn quiet like whenever I go over to his house and stuff we don't even really be talking he just stare at me, it's not a weird stare but it's like a stare that get my cooter wet." I told her. "But when he do talk, everything he say is just 100 times more sexy."

"Bitch when he gon fly you out? Nigga not even ever here." she said as I finished washing the dishes and she put her plate in the sink.

"Bitch wash that shit." I said rolling my eyes. "I don't need him or any other nigga to fly me out and I have school and a whole business here."

"I'm ready." she said putting her plate in the drying rack, I made sure all my stuff was in my purse before grabbing my keys.

"You ever looked at somebody and knew they had a big dick?" I asked after telling my Papa bye.

"Of course. I look at your best friend everyday." I turned my face up.

"You did too much with that one." I said rolling my window down. It was a nice May day, and extremely humid. "Who all finna be over here?"

"Every damn body, you know how Toya ass be." Mocha said.

"Ameer in Atlanta." I frowned. "He ain't even gon be there."

I plugged my phone up to the aux and turned on one of my favorite songs by him. "I just woke up, had dreams in a wraith still riding around in a polo Tshirt. Shorty look too damn good in the face I'm flipping her around on the bed so I can see her." I rapped as Mocha recorded me.

"Period! Money get tall and these niggas not involved!" she shouted as I danced in my seat.

"Baby I make it look light, believe me. Chain leaking now she wet like a squigi, broke bitches give me heebeegeebees. And they fucking do!"

"What he said Toot?"

"I gotta new bitch she gorgeous!" I shouted my favorite part of the song. "And he do though!"

"When he really do gotta new bitch that's gorgeous." Mocha said as the song changed and I pulled up in front of Pooter's house.

"I feel like that song was made for me." I said, getting out my car and locking the doors. "I really do."

"Toya ass got the whole damn city out here." Mocha said and I nodded. Everybody knew and loved Ms. Toya, she took care of everybody, that's just how she was.

"Hey Toot, hey Mocha." Pooter auntie, Lauryn, said as I hugged her.

"Hey, I ain't even know you was back in town." I said hugging Pooter's grandma.

Lauryn was the auntie who had no kids and always traveled for months at a time, but when she came back she always had gifts for everybody, she was my favorite auntie from Pooter's family.

"Girl that damn Coronavirus, I had to get the fuck!" she said making me laugh as I continued hugging everybody.

"Alright now, Lauryn, watch that shit." Pooter's grandma, Gertrude, said.

"Sorry mama."

"You still doing nails, Toot?" Jasmine, Pooter's second cousin asked.

Pooter came from a big ass family, Mocha too and I loved it. It was only me and my Papa, they treated me like I was there own, there'd been plenty of times where my Papa and I didn't have it and they'd always made sure we were straight.

I love it here.

"Yeah I am, I gotta Mother's Day special going on as we speak." I told her.

"You got any openings?" I shook my head.

"I'm literally booked up for the next month and a half, I'll see if I can fit you in. Actually I can do them tomorrow, I don't do nails on Monday's but I got you." I said looking down at my hands.

"Aw thank you Toot, I'll text you." I nodded.

"Where Pooter at?" Mocha asked.

"In the backyard." Lauryn said.

"I'm finna go speak to everybody else." I said following Mocha out the kitchen and out the patio door.

"Tootie!" all Pooter's younger cousins shouted running up to me hugging my legs.

"Y'all don't see me?" Mocha asked. "She don't even like y'all."

"Shut up, Mocha. Hey baby's." I hugged them all, they went and hugged around Mocha's legs next.

"Nah get off me." Mocha said as I held onto Mylin, Pooter's eight year old cousin.

"Tootie I miss you." she said as she held onto my hand.

"I miss you, My." I said looking around the backyard for Pooter. I seen him standing with his uncles and I smiled when I seen Ameer standing there with him.

I walked over to them with Mylin still holding on to my hand. "Damn Tootie, that's you?"

You know that uncle that's always drunk and is low key a pervert but nobody says anything because he run the grill and can grill the hell outta some ribs?

That was Pooter's uncle Oscar.

"Hey Oscar." I said gasping as he pulled me into a hug.

"You done grew up girl." he said still hugging me rubbing his hands up and down my back.

"Alright, Unc." Pooter said pulling me back.

"Ion like det." Mocha mumbled.

"Me neither." I said turning to look at Mylin who was talking to Ameer. "I thought you was in Atlanta."

"I got back early this morning, I called you." he said looking away from me and back to Mylin. "My I told you I don't have games on my home."

"I was in church." I told him as Milyn walked away.

"I figured." he finally looked down at me, making complete eye contact with me. "You missed me?"

"A teeny bit." I said as he grabbed me and pulled me into a hug.

"I like your hair." he said touching the curly weave I had sewn in my head.

"Thank you." I grinned still just looking him in the face. "I'd fuck."

"Relax." he chuckled shaking his head.

I would.

"I'm coming over tonight." I told him.

"You have school tomorrow." he said and I shrugged.

"I'm not going."

"Yes, you are." he said grabbing a plastic plate.

"No I'm not. I'm doing nails tomorrow, I went Friday." I said.

"You don't do nails on Mondays." he scooped baked beans onto his plate. "And what do that gotta do with you going to school? This literally ya last month and you finna graduate, go to school."

"I'm doing Jasmine's and if you don't want me to come over just say that." I joked looking at myself through the camera on my phone. "Ooooh you look good in this picture, Ameer."

ameer2x: i made a plan then i executed.

"I was so blowed man." he shook his head. "Aye I'm going to Canada tomorrow, you can come over tonight but I'm probably gon be gone by the time you wake up for school."

"I'm not going to school and how I'm gon lock the door if you leave?" I asked him.

"We'a get you a key or some shit, ion know." he shrugged. "And you going to school, I'm going to call and wake you up."

"And I'm gonna ignore you." he stopped making his plate and looked at me. "What?"

"You being bullied or some shit? I ain't never seen somebody who don't wanna go to school so bad before." I smacked my lips grabbing a bottle of water out the cooler.

"Nigga no, I don't feel like it." I said as he sat at the table in the backyard. I sat in the chair next to him.

"You don't what you gon feel like tomorrow." he said. "Let me see them damn grades."

"Boyyyy." I rolled my eyes getting on Mistar. "You pressed."

"Shut up." he mumbled scooping Mac and cheese in his mouth and snatching my phone from me. "How you gotta B in gym?"

"Shut up nigga, I'm not sweating my hair out for nobody." I said grabbing my phone back. "Can I get some?"

"Man you just stood up there with me the whole time." he said putting his fork to my mouth, I ate the baked beans off and smiled. "Greedy ass."

"Shut up, I wanted some of yours." I rolled my eyes as Mocha came and sat beside me. "Mocha get pregnant."

Her neck snapped over at me as she looked at me with the most confused look on her face making me start laughing. "Bitch relax."

"Seriously." I said yawning. "Out of all of us you gon be the one."

"No I'm not don't say that shit." she said. "Knock on wood bitch."

"Y'all annoying." Ameer mumbled and I threw my middle finger up.

"Can we have a lil secs?" I asked watching Ameer move across his bedroom.

He ignored me I guess, continuing to pack his luggage to get on the plane in the morning. "Ameerrrrr."

"Yes Jodecy?" I stood up from his bed, pulling my panties out my butt. "Don't touch me with that shitty ass hand."

"You stay playing with me." I laughed walking to where he stood. "I never gave you shitty booty."

"You did though, that's what so funny." he said smiling down at me.

"You never answered my question."

"What question?"

"Can we have sex?" I repeated myself. "You can't fold for shit."

"Usually people do it for me but." he shrugged. "And yeah but I gotta finish this first."

"I'll be quicker." I said making him shake his head.

"Nah... you won't." I grabbed my phone propping it up on his dresser going live on Instagram.

"Hey y'all." I waved looking behind me to see if Ameer was in the camera, he was so I moved my phone over some.

jabreasavana: 😍😍😍😍

billionairelaysia: what happened with you and Mario?

kaysspammiana: who is that in the back? 🌚

"Thank y'all for the compliments." I said. "As far as me and my ex's they're no longer my concern and my new nigga dick bigger and his pockets way fatter. Thank you, next."

I laughed hearing Ameer chuckle. I walked away from the phone and over to him, which was out of the cameras view. "Can I get a kiss?"

I stood in front of him, stopping him from packing once again as he stood up straight and grabbed onto my neck firmly. He leaned down and kissed my lips, just how I liked.

Slow and nasty.

Before letting my neck go and going back to packing his suitcase. "Y'all I love it here." I said walking back into the camera. "Finna have a lil secs."

I genuinely did not want anybody to know and Ameer and I, people were bound to find out because he was a big rapper but I'm not saying anything nor posting anything until I feel it's necessary.

What we do is our business.

onlly1moch: bitch you seen me calling you.

tamioma: you still do nails?

"I really didn't Mocha and yes I still do nails." I chuckled. "Everytime I go live y'all ask me, my answer always gonna be yes y'all."

theonlyjada: keep Mario name out your mouth.

reallaylay: i like your hair sis😍😍

"Thank you sweet pea, it's from unicehair and chile ain't nobody thinking about that man. I promise you he's never on my mind." I rolled my eyes clicking her name and blocking her from the live. "Not finna ruin my nice Sunday, went to church today, seen my loved ones, with my sneaky link, try again tomorrow."

"Stop playing with me." Ameer said making me look over at him. "Some damn sneaky link, I ain't no sneaky link."

"Well what you want me to call you sir?" I looked at him like he was dumb.

"Not that shit." he said throwing a shirt at me.

kaysspammiana: but who is it though?

richassyani: he sound fine as fuck🥺🥺🥺

"Girl he is." I nodded in agreement. "Fine as hell."

I smiled hearing his suitcase zip. "Aye y'all I gotta go." I ended the live quick as hell.

"Damn shame." he said. "I'm still not done."

"Your whole damn closet in there, what is it to pack?" I asked climbing in the bed.

"I need the shit I wash my ass with, is that okay?" he asked me walking into the bathroom.

I answered the phone for Mocha. "Wassup sis?"

"Bitch I done called you 12 times." I laughed because I really didn't see her calling me.

"What's so important you keep calling me?" I asked.

"Bitch now tell my why I'm finna go whoop this nigga ass."

"Who Dashawn?" she nodded. "Why?"

"Cause this bitch gon sit right in my face and lie to me, talking about he at his grandma house, bitch your grandma don't live at no damn strip club. Then I call his grandma and this bitch gon say he sleep bitch no he not." she said making me laugh. "You and your grandson some fucking liars."

"Stop calling they lady a bitch Myra." I continued laughing to the point where tears was falling from my eyes.

"No because he not no fucking sleep, nigga at the strip club. I'm finna go up there and I don't give a fuck."

"Don't go up there." I said. "You know that boy love you too much to cheat, probably there because his bum ass friends asked him to come."

"But why lie? Nigga if you at the strip club, okay. I don't care but fuck is you lying for." she said. "Finna go to sleep off this shit."

"Good night Myra, don't act crazy." I said.

"Yeah yeah." she hung up.

She finna fuck Pooter.

I plugged my phone up to my charger grabbing the remote. At this point I'm sleepy.

"You going to bed?" Ameer asked me, slapping my thigh.

"You ready to fuck?" I asked. "Cause if you not, that's exactly where I'm going."

"Shut up and take ya clothes off." he said and I grinned pulling my shirt over my head.

I really do love it here.
