Ashia's Pov Miami, Florida
Tej called and said he has a big race tonight and invited me to join him. So that's where my sister and I were going.
As I pulled up to Tej's garage, I noticed him talking with Suki. Suki and Tej were my first genuine friends I'd ever had; when I initially moved to America, I was badly teased because of my Trini accent. I introduced them to my siblings, and we've been inseparable since.
I turned off my engine and exited, gazing over to see my sister, Tirana, exiting hers.
"Hey, boo! How are you doing?" Suki asked as she hugged me. Tirana dapped up Tej and then walked over to hug Suki as I hugged Tej.
"Shia, lil sis, how you doing, baby?" He asked, swinging me from side to side.
"I'm good, boo, what's this? I'm hearing that you got a surprise for the racers tonight." I asked, my gaze suspiciously fixed on him.
"That's for me to know and you to, dot dot dot. You racing for me, tonigh?" He asked, cheesing at me.
I shook my head and laughed. "Nah, I just came to chill. I got work tomorrow." I said, drinking my beer.
He rolled his eyes and glanced at Ty, saying, "What about you, big sis? You gon race for me?" He asked her.
She sipped her beer and shook her head, saying, "Hell nah, I don't want to take your money tonight." She said, cackling.
Tej waved us off and proceeded to the other racers.
"crush it,BABY!" I hugged Suki and told her to go ahead so they could get started.
We sat on the hoods of our cars, watching Tej interact with the racers; he seemed upset.
"Aye! Listen up! Of course, some sorry Mfs called out tonight's race, so I had to call someone, but I still need another racer, so y'all better start calling!" Tej yelled while crossing his arms. Tej's money isn't something he plays with.
"Aye! Why don't you fill in, Shia?" Suki said.
I gave her a look, then at Tej, who was pleading with his arms outstretched.
I signed, grinned, and then nodded, telling Tej I'd do it.
"Aye! My number one racer, Shia, is going to race tonight, y'all. And she's taking y'all money, fo sho." Tej yelled, raising my arm, making me playfully shove him.
After getting back into my car and following everyone else, I got out and strolled beside Suki.
I turned around when I heard a commotion of cheering and clapping. A man driving a Skyline got out and stared at me.
As we both stared at each other, I thought, 'Damn, he was fine.'
"Fuck!" Suki signed while plainly showing her defeat.
I asked, "What's wrong?"
"Brian, that boy over there. When I say he's good, Shia, I mean it like he might be your only competition. You know I'm good, yet I'll never be able to beat you. Brian is an absolute natural."
'Oh, he's famous over here, then? How come I've never heard of him?'
"Sup, Suki?" he asked as he glanced between me and Suki.
I didn't find many white boys appealing, but he was unquestionably the best-looking. His eyes were a deep ocean blue; he was the definition of a pretty white boy.
He approached Tej, dapped him up, and they began talking.
"Why don't we kick it a nickel?" he asked as he turned to face Suki once more.
"AY! AY! Nobody said anything about raising the stakes." Julius yelled. This dude has an issue with everything, which makes me roll my eyes.
"Well, in that case, why don't you ask these nice people to move back so you can go home?" Brian said, walking over.
I laughed a little and stared at a furious Julius.
As the crowd began to cheer, Brian's excitement increased. "OK! OK! OK!" They stopped talking when he yelled.
"OK, Julius, are you going to come on or what?" I asked. Nothing against Tej, but I ain't trying to be out all night.
"Aye! Puta, listen, this is not your discussion. He screamed.
I pursed my lips and peered around me to see who the hell he was talking to.
"HEY! WATCH YO MOUTH, BITCH!" Tirana shouted as she got off her car.
I turned back to Julius, glaring, and pointed at him. "Mi dun tell yuh bout dat bitch word kip IT UP an MI A SHOW YUH ONE!" I yelled at him.
He sighed, "OK, 38 large," and gave Tej the cash.
I inhaled deeply as we all lined up and grinned.
"Let's do this, bitches."
-Time Skip-
As the audience applauded for me, I stepped out of the car and grinned. I then turned to face Brian and grinned at him. He was a badass driver; I had to concede that.
Tej offered me ten bands, but I shook my head and spoke in his ear instead. I gave Tej and Suki a hug, then turned to face Brian as he approached us before heading back to my car.
We pulled off the lot and blew our horns, speeding down the street.
