A Life Of Mistakes

Chapter 2

It was a late Sunday night, me and my homies Quan, and Dee planned on skipping school tomorrow. They were my right hand niggas. We all grew up the same way. We all needed money and we were willing to do whatever it took to get it. We came up with a well thought out plan. We decided that we're going to get on the bus for school, and just go to first period so they don't count us absent for the whole day. We all had TCTA (Tuscaloosa Career & Technology Academy) 2nd and 3rd period. We were going to get on the bus to go to TCTA, but instead of going in the building, we were going to sneak around the corner and go to our trap house down the street.

- The Next Day -

Do ya'll niggas remember the plan? I asked in a aggressive tone.

They both looked at me as if i had them fucked up. They hesitated, but said "yeah" in unison.

Man its 7:45 where the hell is the bus?

Quan looked at me for a second then lit up a Black N Mild. I don't know. God didn't give me any super powers, I can't close my eyes and see exactly were the bus is.

You got a smart ass mouth. Only if you were that smart in school.

Quan looked at me and laughed. Shutup fruity in the booty ass lil boy. Dee managed to stay out of our little play fight. I think he was high off Xanax. He was so relaxed. He barely said a word, I kind of forgot he was here.

It's 8:05! We're already late. Let's just hold off on the plan until tomorrow. That's cool?

Damn man I really need this money, but aight, Quan said in a depressed tone. Dee didn't care he was too geeked to care about anything.

We arrived to school at 8:15. Im sitting in 1st period having a good time. Laughing with all of my friends, and suddenly there was a knock at the door. This fat ass girl named Julie hopped up to get the door like it was for her. It was my homie Jordan.

He walked up to me with with a scared look on his face.

Wassup bro? I said nervously

Wassup. You know the trap house that you, Quan, and Dee were-

I stopped him from speaking. How the hell did you know that?!

They both told me but that's besides the fact, ya'll boys got lucky today. The trap house ya'll were about to go to just got raided by the police about 10 minutes ago.

My heart dropped. Thank god I just avoided a case.

Wellllll not quite, jordan said in a low tone.

What you mean not quite?!! I asked nervously

We'll out of the 3 people that were caught, somebody lied and said you are the drug king on the streets and you supplied them drugs to distribute to the locals.

My eyes turned red immediately. What a bitch move! In my mind all I could think about is payback.

The police are looking for you now, but you know you didn't do it so don't sweat it.

Those words went in one ear and out the other. All I'm thinking about is payback.
