Boo'd Up (Kendrick Lamar love story)

I Gotchu Sis!

It was 3am and I was still wide awake.

I finished my schoolwork awhile ago but I just can't sleep for the life of me so I kinda just been watching TV, munching on Oreos and milk, while looking for a place for Kendrick and I to move into.

Valentine's Day was a few days ago. It was amazing! Kendrick is super excited about the baby, he was ready tell his mama. I had to stop him. I'm not out of the danger zone just yet. I had to explain the importance of waiting to tell everyone, including our moms. He was bummed but he understood.

The rest of the night was us talking about the baby, what we were possibly having, and mostly, about finding a place together.

I thought it was reasonable to just find a 3 bedroom apartment but he thinks we should find a 2 story penthouse. I guess it's better than him saying he wants a mansion. That just would've been unrealistic.

Speaking of Kendrick, I can hear his snoring all the way down here. It's a rare occasion that he sleeps at the TDE house these days. If we're both in town, he's sleeping at my place.

But that's what I'm doing now since I can't sleep. Penthouses are so expensive here, it's stupid but again, could be worse.

I was still scrolling when I got a text from Kayla, Kendrick's sister.

'Hey, please tell me you're awake.'

Odd. I look at the time, it's 3:13. What is she doing awake? I text back.

'I'm usually not but why are YOU awake? Don't you have school tomorrow?'

She didn't respond for all of 15 minutes and I was starting to get worried. I was about to call her when she called me.

"Hey, are you ok?," I answered the phone.

"Kay, please come get me! I don't know where I am and I'm so scared! I can't call mama or daddy! Please, come get me!"

I answered the phone to a very distressed preteen and my concern went straight through the roof.

"Woah! What do you mean you don't know where you are? What happened and why aren't you at home?," I questioned, quickly closing my laptop.

"I'm so stupid!," she said as she started breaking down.

"Kayla, you are not stupid. Please, calm down. Just try and describe where you are. I'm gonna come get you," I tried to say calmly.

"Kay, I genuinely don't know! All I know is that I'm in Glendale somewhere. It's so dark out here and I'm scared!"

I tried to think of how I was going to find her. This girl is 30 minutes away from her house. I have so many questions. Then I remembered she just got an iPhone. I remembered setting the Find My iPhone on there myself. I put her on speaker while I tried to track her location.

"Kayla, I need you to calm down and listen. I'm gonna come get you. Try and stay put, alright? You're gonna ok."

As my phone was busy tracking her phone, I went and put on my slides that I left my the door of the garage and grabbed my car keys. But then I remembered, Kendrick parked behind me.

Damn. And his keys are upstairs too. Fuck it, I grabbed mama's car keys instead.

As I was trying to talk her down, I managed to get her location. Luckily, she's not far from my house but she's quite a bit ways from home. What was this girl doing?

Once I was in the area, I realized she wasn't wrong about the darkness. This girl was literally stranded on highway with no street lights. Jeez. I've never been on these parts, I don't think.
