I just left my moms grave and just finished seeing my dad at his nursing home after he was crippled in a accident. So my uncle told me to stay with him in Freeridge.So I said my goodbyes to my homeboys and
I hopped in my all black impala.

As I drive down the street trying to find my cousin Jamals house. As I pull up I see him sitting on the porch waiting for me. I get out of the car
" Hey Jamal u miss me" I screamed.
He runs and hugs me almost knocking me over
" yeah I miss my big cuzzo" He says. We walk in the house to see my uncle and his wife
" Wasssgud unc" I say. He stop what he's doing a hugs me, it feels good to be with him cus he always got me through all this mess. I greet his wife and go get my bags from the car and change.

I changed into a khaki skirt with a riskily cropped wife beater with black af1's and can't forget my black fanny pac that held my red glock my basic everyday fit basically n it looked good in my opinion.

I went to find Jamal who was nowhere to be found I walked down the street to see him talking to a group of kids his age.
"Ayo Jamal why u leave without me I was going to come to I needed to freshen up" They looked at me like I was crazy. There was this short Hispanic boy and this curly haired girl. I asked
" who are they Jamal" the short boy's mouth is still open and d he snapped out of his trance
" oh they are my friends". The curly haired girl said her name was Monse and the the short boy took my hand and kissed it and said he was Ruby. I smiled at him
" hi I am Jamals cousin I just moved here from Compton to finish high school how old are u guys I am 17"
" were all 14" Jamal said. Then Monse kept asking them what some boy named Caesar and what he said and I was confused but after time we started walking again.

As we continue walking I see a red Impala is behind us.Then out of no where Monse jumps in front of the car. The driver shouted
" What is your problem puta" I walk up behind her
" what the fuck she ain't no puta"she ignores the driver. Jamal looks at me as if I have gone crazy and I look back at him. She runs to the passenger side of the door talking to a younger boy. I catch the driver looking at me
" who is this hyna" I respond in fluent Spanish
" Mis  nombres son Maxine, ¿quién me pregunta? He raised his eyebrows looking shocked just like everybody else.
" What I grew up with /around Latinos so I learned and my mom was a afro latina" I stated.
" well I am Spooky u new in the neighborhood" I replied
" yeah". I looked at him and rolled my eyes. I told Monse to come on and we went on our way.

As we walked we decided to go to Ruby's house and they filled me in on the 411 about the gangs and that Cesars brother Spooky was the leaders of one of the gangs which is why he ozzed so much confidence and also was why everybody but me was scared. Me and Jamal needed to head home for dinner and left.

I let my mind wonder to Spooky all night long I don't know why but he's interesting
