You're not a gang member, you's a tourist- Future
"Make sure you eat all your food DD the bus will be here soon" Aahnsty(honesty) said fixing her little sisters hair. "That looks good" her older brother Aiden said kissing her forehead after finally coming out the basement. "There's some more on the stove" She said as the oldest out of the four came through the door with a bag in his hand. Aahnsty was 16, Destinee was 11, Aiden was 20, and Devan was 29. "The bus is outside Honey" Devan said calling Aahnsty by her nickname. She looked seeing it was Destinees bus and hurriedly rushed to put her on it.
"Did you do that drop on 23rd" Devan said as Carter came in the house sweating bullets. "It's hot as hell out there" he said taking his hoodie off. He took the wad of money out his pocket and tossed it to Devan. "Good looks" he said peeling off 200 dollars from it and giving it to him. "What time you got work" Devan asked Aiden who was chowing down "1 I gotta deliver to jersey" he said drinking some orange juice. "Everything went smooth I put the stuff in your room" Aiden said.
Aahnsty came in the house with the newspaper and everybody stopped talking and looked at her. "You ready" Devan asked fixing a plate of food. "No not yet give me 30 minutes" she said going to tackle the dishes from the night before. She had been so busy with studying for her math exams that she didn't get to do them she simply washed and went to sleep. "Aint them exams today" Aiden asked putting his plate on the counter, "Yes and please scrape your plate Aiden" she stressed as he went back to the basement.
She huffed as her other brother did the same thing going up to his room. As she wiped her hands off she heard a plate being scraped and sat in the water. She turned to see Carter going back downstairs with Aiden and finished washing the dishes.
Aiden sat on the couch in his basement setup watching the boondocks. "Ayo that's my shit Nigga" Carter laughed sitting down. They had been out until late moving work so they both was tired. Carter just preferred to be with his boys than to be alone at home. He lived in a brownstone in Harlem while they lived in a house in Jamaica queens. "Yeah this Shit be funny as hell" Aiden said dozing off to sleep. "Yo ass got the idis" Carter said dozing off himself.
"We finna go, Y'all better answer the phone when I call" Devan said pulling out his phone as he came downstairs. "Ight" they said, and continued to watch Tv. Devan left out the basement seeing Aahnsty at the car waiting. She wore her hair slicked back to the side in a puff with her stud Diamond earrings in her ear. She wore a blue velvet juicy couture tracksuit with some white air forces.
This was Aahnsty's last year of high school since she had taken her junior year the summer of her sophomore year. "Can you write me a note so I can leave early" Today was the last day of exams and she would be done earlier than most. "Yeah give me some paper" his dry voice cracked as they drove through traffic.
"Are you sure you don't wanna go to prom" he said writing the note. She shook her head no "I don't have no friends D there's no point in going" she said as she made sure her hair was slicked down. "You already know Keisha said you could go with her niece and that lil nigga she going with" He said handing her the note. "Keisha niece don't even like me" Aahnsty said rolling her eyes. "Your going to prom, If you don't say yes I'll go with you and be your prom date" he said making her eyes go wide. "Nah I'm cool pimp I'll go you don't have too" she said knowing he was serious because he did it for homecoming.
"You finna be 17 in a few weeks too do you know what you wanna do" she shook her head yes. "I wanna go skating" she said as they pulled up to the school. "Here" he said giving her 40 dollars. "20 for the ticket and 20 for lunch" he said, she kissed his cheek getting out the car. He watched her make it into the school then pulled off going to the grocery store to get some food for the house.
