SOUTHSIDE

I have been going to school from my grandma's place due to the fact that lontrell's dad had enough of him coming to the house to search for me.

"Layla that boy outside to you." My grandma called out to me.

I closed my text book and walked out the room my grandpa looked at me in shame. See this is why i be telling lontrell don't come around here. Call me and i'll meet him down the street.

"What i told you?" I asked him walking on the stoney bath into the road where he stood.

"Mayne.you tripping for ma."

He pulled me into him and wrapped his arms around me. I inhaled his smell. Hol- on he smells expensive asf.

"You sniffing me for?"

"You smell different."

"Yeah that dior hit different huh?"

He been showing out lately and i was feeling it. The ashy look wasn't there. My bby was leveling up. He released main slime and everyone was on it. He and 30 did a collab on a fire ass song. It was playing on the radios to.

"You aint all that boy." I played him off and he chuckled.

"I want you to sleep over at 30 and kayla's new house with me. They having a kick back."

"Ok. What to wear?"

"Anything you want mamas."

I watched as he reached into his jean pocket and handed me a rubber band of cash.

"Uh uh trell you don't have to."

"C'mon mamas do ya hair or whatever yall females do with money."

I slyly took it and kissed him.

"Child you better come back in this house and help me cook. Tonguing down that boy in the street. Just like ya mama." My grandma called out to me causing lontrell to double over in laughter.

"Shut up and bye."

"Later mamas."

Getting in the house i helped G-ma cook. Then we ate dinner. I showered and let my grandparents know i was leaving out to go to kayla's.

When i got there trell was on the porch talking to wop. Hella people outside to. The music was loud and lontrell brother was bursting out the most ridiculous dance moves on lawn as people hype him up.

"Here bitch." Bird shoved a cup of liquor in my hand  and i gulped it down. Strong ass henny burning my throat.

"There go ya negro." She pointed to lontrell who was posted up glock in his lap ,looking sexy asl. I wasn't going to knock his vibe so i followed bird over to where tutu and kayla was.

We passed a blunt around and i was fucked up. I aint gon lie everyone was.

"Lontrell? lontrell? Lontrell?" I called out looking around for him.

"He in the back room."

I searched all the backrooms. Then i found him rolling up some blunt. He turnt around to me and stared at me.

"You fucked up."

"And am tryna get fucked.so  Wassup big papa."

"Bold." I giggled sitting behind him.

I picked up his phone going through his IG. A familiar Name caught my eye like i aint no rap genius but i know gucci mane fa sure sure and he hit lontrell up.

"Bby , gucci is hitting you up."

"Mayne shut ya drunk ass up." He replied.

"No forreal real he messaged you like on my mama. see." He walked over took the phone from me and looked.

"Yow this shit legit."

"Am not dumb lontrell." I whispered feeling useless like he don't love me.

"Am i dumb lontrell? ....i don't wanna be dumb. Please don't let me be dumb." I cried.

Then I began to cry again thinking about it all. I already miss him.
