It feels good to be back in Atlanta, bring back good memories. I'm staying with a friend so I'll be out of sight for a little bit.

"Boy where have you been? I haven't heard from you in a minute got me thinking you was dead somewhere" Mark said handing me a beer.

"Nah I been in Texas just getting away from folks, what's up with you. What girl got you all sprung".

"Don't no girl got me sprung" he chuckled a bit.

I gave him that yeah right look, "ight her name is Jiraya and I met her at this cl-".

"Whoa hold up you said Jiraya"?

"Yeah".

"She's mixed, go with that August dude"?

"Yeah well she's married to him now and have a child by him, what you must know her or something".

"Oh yeah I know her real well" I say looking out in space. "Look thanks man for letting me crash at your place, I'm about to head out for a minute" I say rolling in my wheelchair.

"You want me to take you to wherever you need to go"?

"Nah I got it" I tell him then out the door I went. What a small world, I thought to myself.

Jiraya

"Baby I need to run to the store real quick do you mind going for me" I ask August.

"I would Jay but it gotta head to the studio" he grab his keys gave me a kiss and was out the door.

I put on my flats grab my keys and wallet and was out the door, I just needed to grab a couple of thngs. Sanai was with Tori for the weekend so it was just me and August, Soon as I got to the store I grab a hand basket and start getting stuff.

When I got to the cereal aisle I seen a person in the wheelchair having trouble getting a box of cornflakes that was on the top shelf.

"Here you go sir" I handed him the box, he thank me and look up and smile. My whole body was stiff and frozen I couldn't move or nothing.

"What a surprise to see you again Jay oh and congratulations on your marriage, we'll see how long that last" he said.

I drop the hand basket and walk away, as I was speed walking back to my car my mind was running everywhere. I thought he was dead, none of this was making sense to me I was getting those old feelings back would if he tried to kill me again I need to tell August about this.

August

Once I left the studio I stop by the Papa Murphy's to grab a pizza, Jay might not feel like cooking.

I had already place my order in so all I had to do was pick it up and leave. "I'm here to pick up my order" I tell the girl.

"Name please".

"August Alsina" I tell her, she went to get my food and handed it to me. I paid for it and left, I was driving when I seen a young lady on the side of the road with a flat.

I normally wouldn't stop but this time I did, I pull up behind her and got out to see what was the problem.

"Excuse me Ms. do you need help"?

"What you think" she say looking at me then back at her tire.

I know she's not catching an attitude with me when I'm the one pull over to see if she was straight.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to snap at you like that, I just been having a bad day" she say leaning against her car.

"I understand, do you have a spare"?

"Yes, she open her trunk and showed me. I took it out along with the tools she had.

"Thanks umm"-.

"August" I told her.

"August Alsina? Damn I feel slow I hardly recognize you, I'm a huge fan if you don't mind can I get your autograph" she say while smiling.

"Yeah sure" she handed me a pen but no paper. "Umm where do you want me to sign"?

"Can you sign right here" she point towards her chest, I didn't mind I wasn't going to touch her breast.

"You know what never mind just sign on my hand" she say, I look at her funny then went on and sign it. "Okay there you go-".

"Angel" she say.

"Okay Angel, it was nice meeting you and hopefully you can make it home safe until you get a brand new tire".

"Thank you so much August, I owe you one" she went to reach in her purse until I stop her.

"You don't have to pay me I'm the one who offer to help".

"You sure"?

"Positive, take care" I got in my Range and was on my way to the house, what a day.
