Elevation (Jacob Perez Story)

Chapter 66 | Pool Party

In the evening Jacob stopped by Lucky's house. Lucky's father opened up as they both acknowledged each other with a nod. His father called for Lucky to come down. Lucky rushed down the stairs and told Jacob to follow him up to his room

Lucky was sat on the side of his bed, looking over at Jacob walking backward and forward talking to himself

Lucky: "Yoo! Wassup? [He said high pitched] Tf is up wit you?"

Jacob: "Bro... You told me go see Paris right?!"

Lucky: "Yeah?"

Jacob: "And that's what I did bruh. I went and we talked but now I've come to the conclusion that she doesn't only just like me, she wants me bro. She wants alla this"

Lucky: "Fr?! Newsflash! Bruh... Tf happened?"

Jacob: "We were talking right? I asked her why she didn't tell me about Idris and she just switched on me, like her whole mood. One minute she seemed a little bothered I brought Idris up in the first place next minute she just went a little wild for no reason like she wanted to kiss me. The way she was talking to me, she was holding my hand being all affectionate and mannn I didn't know what to doo, I was trying mannn I was trying to not do anything stupid and then my phone went off, ringing. I was relieved that happened cause then I had a choice to stay or leave and then I told her I had to go attend some business and she just looked so disappointed. I feel kinda bad because maybe she just needed some company but the company I'm willing to be for her she don't want that. She don't want none of that. She want company that will make her feel good, you know what I'm saying bruh!"

Lucky: "Man damnn! Shit I don't know what to say mann I'm speechless"

Jacob: "I'm saying like... I don't know anymore. I just don't know"

Lucky: "Neither do I bruh. I'm sorry I ain't have nun to say but now that you've tried to settle shit between y'all and it ain't worked out. I ain't know what to say from here"

Jacob: "You think bruh?! You think I know... shit I'm the one this happening to... Fuck!"

Lucky: "I don't know mann, I'll say this tho bruh I'll talk to Simone and see what she can do to help"

Jacob: [He screwed up his face in confusion] "Simone? Wha- what Simone got to do with this?"

Lucky: "She knows Paris feeling you. They both girls, they talk and Simone realised on her own"

Jacob: "Damn, so it's been THAT obvious bruh? How you think she gon help?"

Lucky: "Man ion know but I know Simone has had an impact on Paris. Paris has her girls but Simone is different to them friends of Paris's. Simone helps and will give her the right talk. Paris just need a good talking to. Man I know my lady, she know what she doing"

Jacob: "Aight man but I don't know how much longer I got until I say fuck it and just slide out the picture. Cause shit like this, it make me anxious yk"

Lucky: "I feel you bruh. And you've come a long way from those days so don't worry about it. I got your back bro. You got this"

Jacob: "Thank you bro"
