***
The morning after the night before - Huey enters the Freeman Home, exhausted and tired.
Granddad sits on the couch, watching Netflix.
***

"Hey, Granddad." I said.
"Huey, where the hell you been?" Granddad said.
"Tom's."
"What you been doing over there for?"
"I was with Jazmine."
Granddad had a sensible feeling on what I clearly did with Jazmine. He could tell by the smiling, relieved look on my face.
"Boy... I'm proud of you."
It was clear that Granddad was surprised and relieved that I clearly had sex.
"I was starting to think you were gay, little nigga. You just like your granddad, out there getting them cutie pies."
"I guess you can say that.. Granddad, I've gotta get some sleep. I'm exhausted, and I feel I should get some rest."
"Ok, boy. I'm glad you followed my advice about sex. I'm glad I told you about when you were 14. But you clearly didn't give no damn, but you remember the shit I told you."
As I walk up to my room, which was the guest room, that Tom had stayed in when Sarah kicked him out from time to time, especially when Usher was fucking with Sarah.
I told him, "It could be worse. It could have been Omarion."
But anyways it was good that I now had my own room. It was decorated with my Malcolm X & Martin Luther King Jr. posters, and many pro-black posters.

I felt a knock on my door.
"Huey! Wake up sex-having nigga!" Riley shouted as he was at my door.
"Riley! Shut the fuck up, and let that nigga sleep! You still ain't getting it on with a cutie pie, little nigga, now leave him alone!" Granddad said.

It felt weird.
Granddad backing me up.
This was gonna be the talk of the school if Riley ran his mouth.
Huey Freeman: revolutionary domestic terrorist, believing hope was irrational, fighting against the government that suppresses the population with lies on Illuminati bullshit, had a girlfriend.
This changed everything. 

I went to my room, music blasting through my headphones. It was Joey Bada$$'s song Save the Children from his album B4.DA.$$.

*B4.DA.$$ is a 2015 album by rapper Joey Bada$$, who was born on January 20, 1995, and is part of the rap group known as Pro Era (also known as Progressive Era). He released two mixtape within 2012 and 2013 known as 1999 and Summer Knights. Also in 2012, Bada$$ released an collaboration album with Pro Era known as P.E.E.P: The aPROcalypse.

3 hours later...
====/ ====
I awoke to my phone ringing.
It was Caesar.

"What's up, Caesar?" I said as I rose up in my bed.
"Huey, what you up to man?"
"Not much. Just woke up."
"Ok, wanna hang out at my house?"
"Sure. But I gotta freshen up."
I still had that love smell from the night before at Jazmine's.

Then I headed down, letting Mike know I was on my way.
Riley was heading my way.
"What's up nigga? Feeling like the man? All cause you got some pussy? I was thinking you was hella gay."
"Whatever, Riley. I'm bout to split. Granddad, I'm heading to Caesar's."
"Ok Huey, make sure you got your iPhone with you."

*Riley's POV

So as Huey left out the house, Ed and Rummy came through.
"Aye, what's up Ed? What's up Rummy?"
"Shit ain't a damn thing." Ed said.
"Let's go on the road, Riley. We got some catching up to do, lil nigga." Rummy said.
"Ed. Go get the car."
Ed was distracted on that fucking iPhone, FaceTiming some bitch.
"Will you put that motherfucking phone down for one minute, motherfucker?"
Rummy said.

I agreed. Ed was fucking around. I was trying to go on the road and fuck with some people. Gangsta style.

So as we go on the road, we run into Cindy McPhearson.
"Young Reezy!" Cindy said.
"What's up with you Cindy?"
"Shit ain't nothin' but G Love."
She was the whitest gangsta girl I knew.
But I felt like I could fuck with her cause she was like a trap queen racking up the bands.

*Trap Queen is a song by Rapper Fetty Wap, and was released in 2014. But got really recognized in 2015, becoming a smash hit on the radio. Guaranteed that Fetty makes nothing but straight bangers every time lol.

It seemed that I had that Thuggin' Love for her. But not in the way Gangstalicious was. I still can't believe he and that other nigga was kissing on the lips. I was lost for words. That was very not gangsta at all. But he bitch-made. Just like Thugnificent. Nigga was bankrupt like a motherfucker but he made a living in UPS.
Them two niggas ain't shit. Not anymore.
Oh well.

// Transition occurs - to catch up with Caesar and Huey. //

*Huey's POV

Me and Caesar had played on his PlayStation 4. The game we played was Mortal Kombat X.
"Damn Huey, you suck at this."
"I don't play video games at all, Caesar."
"Then what do you do?"
"I stay outside, and think of the harmony and peace of the great outdoors."
"That sounds fun."
I stayed at Mike's house for a while, and we not only played the game, but talked about the music that makes the most sense and how it leaves an impact on people, The current debate within congress, and how Obama is doing as the President.
As I left Caesar's, I ran into Jazz.

"Hey beautiful Afro boy."
Beautiful Afro boy? That was something weird. I'm not for this lovey-dubby shit.
But if she insisted, I was just gonna play along.
"Hey Jazmine."
"What are you up to?"
"Nothing much. About to head home. It's been a long day. Want to come with?"
"I guess."
So we walked home.
Together.
However we didn't get into sexual acts this time.

Maybe this is love. Maybe I'm just experiencing it wrong.

Whatever. Last night's trying to affect me but I'm keeping it in the back of my mind.

* Well damn. Huey is trying to really forget about the night before. But he won't stay this way forever. Hell, he'll eventually change his attitude. You never know.
Stay tuned for Chapter 4.
