"Hey Ramee— no Yuno you cannot borrow my car I don't care if you helped me pay for it— it's ya girl April."

Ramee rolled his eyes fondly at his phone. He knew the woman would find it easy meeting new people in the city but he had not expected her to be so busy. She had been in the city for a month and already made more friends than some people had who have been in the city for years.

Her sugar baby grind had been so successful that a lot of people had been paying her bills and buying her meals. He never doubted her charm and ability to get whatever she wanted but he was surprised that even Yuno bought her a Prius.

The rising hacker was well known for rejecting everyone who wanted something romantic from him so it was a surprise hearing that April was successful in getting such a lavish gift for him. Her bubbly nature was infectious and it made a lot of people agreeable to her demands in exchange for her energy to rub off them.

"Can you have one conversation at a time? Jesus April." Ramee cut off her conversation with Yuno. He was not surprised that she had met the Cleanbois golden child and Tony Corleone.

Ramee might have been worried that she would grow closer to CB if she hadn't already expressed her interest in joining CG.

He knew April was already good friends with Randy and Taco and he was aware that she found a parental figure in Mr K and K found a daughter in the young woman. Whenever she had time to spare she spent it at Little Seoul with the rest of gang and the OG's had especially warmed up to her, showering her with money and gifts. She seemed especially fond of Vinny, who painted her new Dilettante pink and customized it with new rims and license plate. Not that it bothered him. He was easily the richest member in the gang and knew he could upstage all of their gifts without blinking an eye.

"What did you want Ramee?" She softly asked him after saying her goodbyes to Yuno.

Ramee called April because he wanted to introduce her to Uchi. He knew the two would get along well because of how similar he thought they were. While Uchi was more likable than he was he still was misunderstood by a lot of the people in the gang. He thought that if he met April the white haired man would also get a piece of her kindness and understanding. He was a stingy person but he wanted to share the kindness she had given him.

Randy disagreed with the sentiment, letting his friend know he thought that him and April were so similar that they were practically the same person. He advised that Ramee stayed being the stingy, selfish person he was when it came to April because he would quickly regret it.

Randy had interacted with the sugar baby occasionally and knew that she could easily fit in wherever she went. He theorized that there must have been some sort of mutual attraction for her to tolerate the moody warlord. He had a feeling that introducing someone as magnetic as her to more people would only backfire on the jealous man.

Randy was the second in command for a reason. He knew that people loved her and her seemingly stereotypical blonde nature. After observing her for a while he knew that April was a lot smarter than she let on and was hoping she would show those parts of herself. He wasn't worried about another Bobby Brown situation because he could tell April was just good. It emanated from her whenever she visited the cubby. She couldn't help but spill the golden residue of kindness and her soft heart whenever the clumsy girl visited.

It also helped that he, K and Garrett had already vetted her. Her file was an extensive and tragic one but it let them know that despite everything she went through, she was still a good person.

Randy shared with Ramee that he knew the vulture just wanted everyone to approve of his new friend so he could feel justified in his feelings towards the redhead.
