SOUTHSIDE

39

Today I decided to leave the house after the whole club incident. Polo was coming to get me to take me god knows where.

"Dad am heading out now."

"Be safe."

"I will. Love you."

"Love you to."

I got out the door closing it,polo was outside in a big ass SUV. A guy hopped out opening the back seat door for me.

"Thank you sir." I hopped in and polo snickered.

"What?"

"You so mannerly bruh."

"I was raised right so yes. Now where are we going?"

"The aquarium and some other place. Leia idea."

"Where is leia?"

"My mom's bringing her."

I looked down at my ripped knee jeans and air force 1's. Pulling my moncler jacket up. I was dressed appropriately. Good.

We rode in silence until we pulled up to the aquarium. Polo hopped out opening my side for me helping me out.

"Thank you."

We walked up front,polo ahead of me with his big ass bodyguard. We stopped and I saw leia smiling at me,i returned the smile.

"Who is this?" The lady asked polo smirking at me.

"Ma this is my homie layla layla this is my mother."

"Hello miss." I greeted her

"Stacia. Where you from darling?"

"Memphis."

"How old are you?"

"18 about to be 19."

"Oh your a baby. High school ?"

"College m'am."

"Oh really? What's your major?"

"Medical studies and Emergency responses."

"I like you." She smiled broadly as polo rolled his eyes.

"C'mon lay am ready to get my shark pop." Leia told me pulling me inside.

I followed her peeking back a little stacia and polo was talking then she pushed him inside.

"I want all the candy."

"Uh uh. Do you want to get diabetes and go blind or lose your feet?" I asked her as we stood at the fish shaped candy stand.

"Eww no."

"Ok so one candy."

I got her a big whale shaped candy and an inflatable shark.

"I'll cash app you yo money back." Polo told me as we went up on the escalator.

"No need to. We cool."

"Bet bet."

The rest of the viewing we looked around at the fished. Took pictures, goofing around saying what fish looked like who.

"Ok leia that's it what's next?" I asked

"Ice cream then the park."

"Yo i want some popeyes so you gon have to wait. Am hungry as fuck." Polo stretched his arms as i hit him.

"No cursing infront of leia."

"Mayne am a grown nigga fuck-"

"I *smack* told *smack* stop *smack*."
I hit up him constantly.

Thats when we began play fighting outside and leia was helping me tag team his skinny ass.

"YALL AINT SHIT." He ran away laughing.

We then got to the drive thru at popeyes ordering our food. We ate in the car while watching love and basketball. Leia was out clean in the middle.

"She out. So we gon take her to the park or nah??"

"Nah."

We jus sat back in silence. Finishing the movie.

"WAKEY WAKEY WAKEY WAKEY SLEEPIES."  Leia high pitched voice said  nudging me.

"LEIA GO BACK TO SLEEP." Polo shouted pushing his hand down into his pants.

"Driver. Please drive us to the closest park." Leia said.

The guy looked at me for approval and I nodded. We drove to the park polo was still out so we went in the park with out him.

"Lay. You have a boyfriend?" Leia asked

"Nope. Do you?"

"Yes." She answered leaving me shocked and all. Like girl your to young to have a man.

"His name is Giovanni. He's in my class."

"Does he know you're his girlfriend?"

"Well durr he asked me at recess last week."

"Is he cute?"

"Yes. I ain't want no ugly dude.

I was fighting my laughter so bad on this bench. When I was her age all i wanted to do was play with my barbies and watch cartoons. She got a whole man. Wow.

It began to get chilly and we walked back to the suv. Polo was up on his phone.

"Yall aint shit."

"We tried to wake you up but you didn't want to. Now hush."

We got to my house. I hugged both of them bye and then hopped out.

Walking to the door,i saw lontrell trackhawk in the driveway.

"Who the fuck dropping you off in an suv?"

"Mind yo business. Don't you have kianti to talk to."

"We talked about this your my only bitch now. Now who that mfucker dropping you off?"

"Polo. Now what." I folded my arm staring as he walked out the jeep.

As he was about to make grips for my neck,i pushed his hand away.

"Don't fuck me up now layla. You feeling that nigga or something?"

"He my friend."

"Am yo nigga. Am supposed to be yo only male friend."

"Used to be my nigga. Now you out here with hoes testing me and shit."

"Mayne. I already showed shawty Wassup."

"Oh really? Lemme see yo phone then?"

"Fuck out of here." He said.

"See. Now move from infront of me and let me be."

"Mayne can i come in. Spen da night off am to tired to drive back."

"You just want me to cuddle you. Big ass baby." I chuckled and he smacked his lips. Then he swopped me up taking me inside.

We got down to our underwear and then under the cover. Off to sleep.
