Romeo Must Die Page #3

Get a good shoulder turn

so the wrist breaks naturally.

Make sure you keep your eyes on the ball.

This shaft, l don't like it.

It ain't working for me.

Save the excuses.

With all respect to your shop owners,

without the deeds, there's no land deal.

Without the land deal, there's no presentation.

Without the presentation, there's no...

- What's the popular term these days?

- Cheddar.

That's right. No cheddar.

Do l make myself clear?

If I say l'll deliver, l'll deliver.

Hey, hey, hey, now.

Sorry I'm late.

Girl, knowing the way you shop,

I'd say you're early.

- Oh, really? got some hot stuff.

- Yes.

Good. Work it out!

Your brother's in the back.

It looks good.

That guy that got whacked?

- You mean Ch'u's boy?

Yeah, yeah.

He called me. Ain't that some sh*t?

Same night he got killed, Pop.

Jesus Christ.

What'd he want, Colin?

I don't know. Oh, look, man.

Let me holler back at you later.

Colin, you be in my office in one hour.

Okay.

I asked you not to do business here.

- Hi, sis. Nice to see you too.

- mean it, Colin. Come on.

This is my place, okay?

I got kids hanging here all the time.

- Lf this is what you're about-

- Don't start the speech, all right?

For once, let's not go there.

I was on the phone, talking to Pop.

Hey, look, come on. He's a businessman.

I work for this businessman.

- Fine.

- Stop tripping over this sh*t.

Colin. Colin, wait. Wait.

Look. L'm sorry.

I just worry about you.

That's all.

Yeah, l know.

And I love you too, Trish.

But you ain't gotta worry about me.

I'm fine.

Serpentine Fire.

Hello?

I'm talking way back. Way back.

Right there, player.

What's good?

Try the parking lot.

I'm just trying to do my job, Trish.

Just like Mo.

He told me the sh*t you pulled.

Plain stupid is what it was.

Things are gonna get tense now that

that Chinese dude got popped.

Was that one of your jobs too?

No, that shoddy work's not my style.

I'm sorry. Poor baby!

Have l got you all wrong?

You don't have a clue to what l'm about.

Why don't you tell me?

For starters, get past the facade.

You got some serious facade going on.

Well, so do you. So does everybody.

And this Miss l-Don't-Need-Nobody

isn't you. Not the real you.

- You saving yourself for Kobe Bryant?

- Ls that what you think l'm doing?

I think you need to consider

the possibility that you've met him.

You're an errand boy for my father.

You're nothing.

Fair enough.

But there comes a time when a man

has to strike out on his own.

Stake his own claim.

How could I have missed it?

I think I'm hopelessly in love

with you.

Make fun all you like. Sooner or later,

this man's gonna be way too much for you.
