As they stare at the man Harlow compares the difference between his father and him, he couldn't find a difference.
"Hello sir?" Harlow says
The man comes closer to them "man I havent seen people here in forever.."
Harlow continues to stare at the man until McCray elbows him "bro you look like a weirdo.. stop staring.."
Harlow blinks and looks at him "he looks exactly like my father."
McCray nods "I see that but you need to stop staring man" he laughs a little
The man picks the pig up and kisses its forehead "yall want a beer?"
McCray smiles "oh id love-"
Harlow puts his hand over McCrays mouth "no its alright..."
McCray rips his hand off his mouth and cringes "your hand tastes horrible."
Harlow looks at him confused "you tasted my fuckin hand? Now thats weird if you ask me."
McCray rolls his eyes and looks at the man "how long have you been here."
The man looks back at them "to be honest I dont really remember.. maybe a year or so."
Harlow and McCray look at eachother , Harlow sighs "you know what.. we will have a beer with you."
As they walk into the guys house they quickly start scanning the place.
"So what brings yall here?" The man asks
Harlow stares at the man still astonished by his appearance but tries to ignore it.
"We were looking for someone actually." Harlow responds
The man lifts his eyebrow "any luck?"
Harlow looks at McCray "not yet.."
The man sighs "well thats a bummer.. I hope you find him sometime."
McCray laughs making both the man and Harlow look at him.
McCray grabs a little poloroid picture.
"Hey! Don't be snooping around my house!" The man says
McCray looks at him "sorry sir im just curious of the things you have in this town.. as you seem to be here alone.."
The man sighs "well I guess there is nothing to hide so do as you wish then.."
McCray shows Harlow the picture "look at this shit."
Harlow looks at it seeing his father and him when he was younger. He looks at the man almost tearing up. "How do you have this?"
The man shrugs "it was in my wallet."
Harlow looks up at McCray wide eyed then looks back at him. He sighs "are you sure you just found this in your wallet?"
The man squints his eyes thinking "I believe so.."
McCray sighs and sits down leaning towards him.. "well sir... I'm sorry about this.. but we lied to you.."
The man looks at McCray confused "about what?"
McCray smiles "we did find the man." McCray points at him "it was you sir.."
The man looks at him and Harlow confused "why would you lie about that?"
Harlow gets up and starts pacing "cause we weren't sure you were the right guy..."
The man leans back in his seat "why would you be looking for me?"
