Before planting crops during the summer time it's important to prepare the soil— so Troy was keeping busy around his grandparents farm, normally they'd wait until late June to plant, but this year they were doing things a little different,
While he was applying organic matter to the ground, and ridding any visible weeds; He was accompanied by Alonzo who was getting details of the aftermath from the trail ride, "So when he got there what'd he say? Was he mad?"
"For the most part he was still feeling some type of way, and I said my peace or whatever because I really fuck with dude— East is like a brother and always showed me respect, and by him coming from a different kind of background, the shit we think is funny or cool ain't viewed the same way for him," Troy used the bottom of his shirt tail to wipe sweat from his face "He eventually accepted my apology though after punching me in my mouth,"
Alonzo slowly adjusted his posture while giving Troy an under eye expression,
Troy flipped his lip inside out showing Alonzo the bruise from the night before which he soon laughed about, but Alonzo didn't find anything humorous about it, "Hell nah TD, the fuck he hit you for? Did you square back up with him?"
"Nah I just let the nigga get his lick back," Troy shrugged seeming unbothered "Can't say I wasn't at fault for making him fall off a horse, I done fell off horses many of times and that shit does hurt so I felt the punch was fair,"
Alonzo scoffed and folded his arms, "You a better man than me, so where's he now?"
"The gym, he's real in tune with self care, health, spirituality and all that shit— East would probably pray in the middle of traffic,"
"Nothing wrong with that," he sighed "I don't know maybe I have been being an ass to him for no reason..."
"You gotta get to know him for real Zo, but honestly your attitude towards him ain't been too crazy— especially when it comes down to Trinity, they been hanging out alot lately and you haven't really cut up about it, why?"
