In Spite of the Bosset Life(40)
“What we watching?” asked Majesty. Ace looked at me because I had the remote. I just smiled. Majesty was so grown.
“What you wanna watch princess?” asked Ace.
“I wann watch Next fix.”
“What?” whispered Ace as he looked at me.
“She said she wants to watch Netflix. Leave my baby alone,” I said, hitting the app button on the remote. I turned on Lilo and Stitch for my baby. I could feel Ace’s eyes on me. I ignored his stares. He started scooting up so his daughter couldn’t see him. He stuck his tongue out and put it in my ear. I bit my lip, so I wouldn’t make a sound. Majesty was between us but was a little lower.
“Ace,” I said in a whisper. I looked at him and he started flickering his tongue. I put my finger in his mouth. He showed me actually what he wanted to do to my kitty.
“Majesty, when this movie go off, you have to go to your room. You can’t sleep in here every night, smoochie. You’re a big girl, remember.” Lately, Majesty was sleeping in our bed every night, which was fine, but that meant Ace and I couldn’t have sex. Ace took my finger out his mouth and winked at me. I was getting wet and I couldn’t wait for the movie to be over. I knew I was about to get my * ate.
“No,” said Majesty with an attitude. I moved my head down to her and looked at her. She just kept looking at the TV.
“What you just say?”
“You know what she said,” said Ace, whispering with his smart mouth. He looked like he wanted to pop Majesty in the mouth.
“Smoochie, you want to go to your room now?” I asked in a threatening tone. She started shaking her head no. “I don’t do sign language and last time I checked, you know how to talk.”
“Ma Ma, I wannn sleep in yo room,” said Majesty, folding her arms.
“No, you’re a big girl. Big girls sleep in their own beds.”
“Can I sleep on the floor then?” I looked at her like ‘what?’
“Majesty, you not sleeping in here,” said Ace, like that was the final say so. Smoochie started crying. I picked her and sat her in my lap.
“Koì, put her down. Nothing’s wrong with that girl,” said Ace, growing frustrated.
“Boo butt, what wrong?” I asked, ignoring my husband.
“My eel hurt mommy,” said Majesty, crying and pulling at her ear. She hugged me tight.
“Koì, she lying. She was just okay. Put her down. You always babying her. Majesty, stop crying before you get a whooping.” I looked at Ace like he was crazy. He wasn’t whooping my child. He caught on and sucked his teeth.
“I don’t wannn no whooping,” said Majesty, crying loud now. I rocked her back and forth, which really made Ace mad. Her cries were loud and made me feel bad.
“Koì, put her down. You got her spoiled rotten.” I put her down because I knew nine times out of ten, Majesty was just trying to sleep in our room.
“Don’t say you gon whoop my child.” Majesty laid her head on my leg, hugging me.
“You can but I can’t? Koì, what eva. Majesty is my daughter too, last time I checked.”
“You not putting yo hands on her. I’m sorry but that’s neva gonna happen,” I said, rubbing my baby’s back. “You a man, which means you got man hands. You not touching her. You betta find some other way to discipline her.” I was too serious. Couldn’t nobody put they hands on that one. No, no, no.
“Yeah okay. Majesty, you better stop all that crying. You too big for all that cry baby shit,” said Ace, getting out the bed. I rolled my eyes and picked Majesty back up.
“Watch yo mouth, Ace.” Majesty was rubbing her eyes crying softly. Ten minutes passed by of Majesty still crying.
“I told you to stop crying,” said Ace, picking Majesty up.
“Ace!”
“Koì, no. You let her do too much.” Majesty started freaking out. Ace had to just let her go. She screamed and stomped the ground hard. She was having her temper tantrum and kicking like crazy.
“Majesty, if you don’t get up right now,” I said, standing with my hand on my hip. “Now Majesty, before you get a smacking!”
“A smacking? Koì, you better get on with that white shit. Go get a belt for her little ass!”
“Majesty, get up!” She started kicking me, saying she wanted to sleep in our room.
“Koì move because you obviously don’t know what the hell you doing.” I was done. Ace acted like he could do better so I took the back seat. Majesty was acting a fool now!
“Get yo little ass over here,” said Ace, trying to catch Majesty. She ran right to me.
“Majesty, I told you to stop. You not a baby! Go to your daddy now!” Majesty stood still, not moving. That was okay because Ace came and picked her up in a quickness.
“You gon start listening when we talk to you! Do you hear me?” yelled Ace. He held her by her arm and pulled her panties down. I turned my head but turned back around to make sure Ace didn’t do too much. I remembered those beatings he put on Kash back in the day. This was not going to be another episode of that bullshit. Ace was gon see me act a damn foo!
“Ma Ma,” said Majesty, crying and reaching for me. I shook my head no. Ace popped that bare booty a good three times and took her to her room. I followed behind.
