May POV:

"Don't replace me while you in New York, I don't wanna have to beat them lil girls up"

"Now you know I will never replace you ma, why you doing all that."

"mhm anyway stop being caked up with me and go kill them niggas on from the stage bye"

"bye ma!"

The boys were in New York for rolling loud. They've been gone for a week cause they had other shows to do before rolling loud actually started though. Stoke always facetime me when he gets the chance just check on me and occasionally cake up with me and it is cute. That's my nigga so of course, I'm going to think it's cute. I have been doing shows and here and there and making some bread for performing in high-class places. I have been helping Giveon with his writing and it has come a long way. We only meet up in public places because I really don't want Stokeley to assume anything with his still insecure brain. Ayana and I went to the gym this morning and after that, I went home, took a shower, and I have been writing since. I had a to of happy inspiration around. I took a break and went to grab some chic-fil-a, when I got back home I sat down and watched tv while I ate. I was about to drift off when my phone began to ring and it was Gabe.

"Gabe?"

"May!"

"What happened is Stoke alright?"

"Yes, he's fine. How fast can you get to New York?"

"What Gabe?"

"I just sent you a plane ticket for a 5 day trip to New York"

"For what though?"

"You'll see when you get here. I didn't tell Stoke you coming I want to surprise him. The real surprise is for you so get your ass up here sis. Escape that home for a while."

"Gabe what the hell"

"See you soon!"

"Ga-" and before I could get my sentence out he was off the phone. Two seconds later I received a text and it was my ticket and hotel info and my flight was in 3 hours. I swear when I see Gabe I am going to kill him, the flight was out of Miami, and I live in Broward. I get up as fast as the notification came packed some clothes a few jackets and a pair of slides and sneakers. I go freshen up one more time and throw on a simple fit with some sneakers and then I was out the door.

In N.Y.C

When I landed I walked out and I see a man next to a black Cadillac truck. I walk up to him and he uses a picture to properly identify me. Then he opens the door for me and takes my bags I get in the car and then he gets in soon after. The driver explains we are going to the hotel and then we have to head to the radio studio. I was in shock and I told Gabe and that he needs to call me and tell me what I am doing in New York. After dropping off my stuff at the hotel we made our way to the radio studio.

"So you like driving in the crowded streets of New York?"

"Only when I am behind the wheel ma'am"

"Ma'am? Please call me May"

"Okay Ms. May"

"You don't need the 'Ms' in front"

"Sorry, I have to speak to you a certain way, I like to keep things strictly professional. Especially since we aren't friends"

"I see I can respect that. May I at least know your name?"

"My name is Trente, you may call me Trente if you'd like"

"Well Trente it's nice meeting you and thank you for driving me around while I am here"

"My pleasure ma'am" he say's as right as we roll in front of the studio. Trente stops the car and looks opens the door for me. He say's he'll be back to get me after. I am surprised he knows my own schedule. As I walk in I see Gabe and Druski.

Druski: "So this is the one?"

Gabe: "This is the one Dru man. She is perfect and she not slow like that other bird neck girl"

"Now hold up because I don't even know why I am here. Like how the hell.."

Gabe: "I am trying to make your dreams come true so let me do that, for my little sister alright?"

Druski: "Hi I am druski2funny on social media, you  can call me Dru. We needed a third interviewer for rolling loud, just simple interviews have your own questions and questions off the cards type of thing and Gabe said you would be a natural. You look good for the part but do you have a name?  May won't work."

"A name? Uhm yeah I have a name."

Druski: "Well don't tell me I want it to be a surprise for everyone when  we start doing the interviews tomorrow. You will be covering plenty of the Florida rappers mainly because it is easier to interview people you can relate to on your first run."

"Gabe... I am still going to kill you. I left some good clothes and shoes because you rushed me! You didn't even tell me this was why I am here.... *screams* IM GONNA BE DOING INTERVIEWS FOR ROLLING LOUD!!!!"

Gabe: "Damn calm down, save some of those screams for the show please. Also Jarad is coming through tonight. We are also going out to get you prepared for this shit."

"Did you tell Ski yet, or am I still I surprise?"

Gabe: "You will see him tomorrow, unless he facetimes you at an untimely hour"

Druski: "While you figure that out, here's 4k in advance for your services with us. Use that to buy the missing clothes and to do that other girly shit yall do."

"Thank you so much for the opportunity"

Gabe and I walk out of the studio and we get in the car with Trente, Gabe calls him TJ, and we headed to some shops. We went out to eat and Gabe just gave me the run down on how to do these interviews. After all of the run around for tomorrow afternoon we headed back to the hotel. I told Trente goodnight, thank you, and that I would see him tomorrow and he said it back. Gabe and I walk into the hotel and went separate ways. When I got into my hotel room I put all the clothes down and tried to put together and outfit for tomorrow. I checked my phone and for notifications but nothing. I just assumed the guys were probably busy getting ready for tomorrow or something so I just took a shower, brushed my teeth and wrapped up my hair. I got into the hotel bed and watched tv until I slowly dozed off but as soon as I was about to fall asleep I get a facetime call and it is Stokeley.

"Hey mama's what you doing?" he said definitely awake in his room.

"I'm about to fall asleep babes, what you doing" I said placing my phone on the opposite side of me and getting comfortable in the bed.

"Nothing just watching tv, wish I was next to you though"

"You are such the cornball"

"Lol you sound tired as hell though. You better not have been fucking no nigga's while I'm away because I will kill them"

"Stokeley shut up and let me sleep. Stay on the phone though."

"Ight, good night ma"

"Night pa" I said and then drifted right off the sleep.
