“Bitch tried me, and I showed him.”
“I always watch her when she’s sleep… I sit in her room after she goes to bed and watch her until I’m ready for bed. When she wasn’t fucking with me, I was in there every night.”
“Nigga, you shut the fuck up!” Corleon yelled back. “Nigga, you walked the entire backyard, counting until you counted every paver back there. Yeah, we didn’t know why you were that way until Angelica recognized it, but don’t forget how fucking stressed and anxious you were. Me, Kora, and Jeffie saw that shit.”
“Yeah, I get that… I told you that you need to stop doing other shit and actually do the therapy. Mens, you got shit with you and hold that shit in because you had to. You carry a lot on your back so Kora, Zoya, and Landon don’t ever have to… you the realest nigga, but even the realest nigga need therapy.”
“Once upon a time there was a big bad wolf, and he found out that the other wolves, who he fed real well by the way, were stealing his… chicken. Now Mr. Wolf made sure there was chicken for everybody. He liked extra lemon pepper on his, but other than that every fucking body got chicken… we following.”
“The wolf let some new wolves in based on one of his trusted wolves… he told him shit was cool and then those wolves stole from him. The OG wolf acted like he ain’t know shit while Mr. Wolf had to find out who was responsible. He found the person responsible, and she was fine as shit… fucking beautiful, a motor mouth though, but beautiful… she’s beautiful, right?”
“Fucking wrong… I’m on yo’ asses even more ‘cause let some shit come to me and my baby, and I’m chopping heads off. You remember what happened to that other nigga.”
“You’re fucking sick for killing your family…. A fucking Menace,”
“I want to keep you and what I do separate, baby. This life ain’t for everybody and I don’t want that shit crossing into what we building. I would never keep you in the dark but let me handle this.”
“Because I am in love with you, Maverick. I can’t even think of leaving you, even though that was all I wanted to do when I first met you. The thought of you sitting in that house alone before you met me brings tears to my eyes. You are complicated, and some days I wanna choke you because why can’t you just fucking flush the toilet once… but those are the things that I love. You aren’t weird, baby, you are unique. Different isn’t a flaw, it’s a feature.”
want to hear you hum me to sleep while rubbing my beard every night. You got me fucked up, I can’t even sleep without you next to me now… this started out one way, but I want it to end another way… Stevie, will you spend forever with me… never leave me?”
“I want to make up names with you for the rest of my life. I want to love you and feel the love that you give me, Mitchell. I want to make your smoothies and separate your sauce from your chicken forever.”
“This was supposed to be a business agreement, and we found love with each other. All I want is for you to try, and I don’t need you to be perfect. Just be you, Maverick. I want to know that I matter, because to me you matter. This wasn’t about her. It was about you putting her before my feelings. I’m your wife, so I needed you to see that I can and will walk away from this. Your money, the islands… okay, the islands do mean something. But I will start my life on that island newly divorced.”
“I want you to have all the things that your heart desires and this is one of those things. Stevie, I was put on this earth to make all your dreams come true, and that’s what I plan on doing ‘cause you breathing the same air as me makes my dreams come true.”
