2 - My High
Rage"She really as crazy as they say she is?" Reign laughed loudly. I nodded yes without hesitation. "I'm serious Reign, she crazy. Showing up here demanding I drive her around like I work for Uber. Then she had me stood outside Rico's door like some postman." I told her.
"He let yall in?" I gave her a blank 'really?' look "What you think?" She shrugged. "He called me the other day. Sent me some money." I scoffed "I don't get it. He cuts everybody off, everybody, yet you here being sent money for nothing. Real fucking princess."
"It's not my fault I'm everyone's favourite. You seen the car dad got for my birthday." Reign bragged happily. An instant frown appeared on my face "He got you a car?" Reign nodded and unlocked her phone showing me the picture of her stood beside her brand new blue Lambo.
"Why you get it in blue? That shits ugly and fuck dad he ain't get me shit." The only thing I got from my dad for my 18th birthday last month was a call telling me when the next shipment of product was coming through and that I better not be late to collect.
Reign rolled her eyes at me calling her car ugly "Maybe he forgot it was your birthday."
"Forgot? We have the same birthday Rei!" How could someone have twins and forget their birthday. It's literally two in one, all he had to do was remember one date for the both of us. "Ion know." She shrugged. "Perks of being the one and only baby girl I guess. Anyway what else you know about Peaches?" Reign asked leaning closer into the screen of her iPad, making sure she didn't miss anything I said.
"Get your big ass head out my face! And Peaches mad tatted."
"For real?" Reign asked with a wide smile on her face. Reign was the artistic one in the family she could draw anything you asked her to and it would look like a picture. Back in high school she taught herself how to tattoo her art and was now my one and only personal tattoo artist but she didn't work for free, that money had to be right every time.
"Yeah she got everybody name on her arm, some random scriptures and check this. She got dads whole entire face on her leg." I described trying to remember what I had seen. "You lying!" She gasped dramatically. "I'm dead serious."
"She must've really loved him." I shrugged, I honestly didn't think my dad even still fucked with Peaches, she'd been gone so long and he'd had at least 20 women in the time she was locked up. Even had us calling his ex Stacey Ma at one point. "Heavy on the loved, past tense, the crazy bitch fucking shot him last Tuesday."
"WHAT?!" Reign yelled and I almost dropped my phone at how loud she was. "Yo Rage I really hate you. When I call to hear an update on family gossip this is the shit I wanna hear. Details please!"
I laughed and shook my head at her "I don't really know what happened. Rome said they were arguing he grabbed her and she shot his leg. I guess it's safe to say she don't like to be grabbed-" I paused when I saw Peaches name flash across my phone screen "Ah shit Rei she calling me."
"Answer! And then call me later and tell me what she said. Bye love you. Muah." She quickly hung up., allowing me to answer the call.
"Peaches." I answered dryly. "Boy you don't see I've been calling you." She'd been calling me all morning but I dud the feel like hearing her voice so I ignored it each time my phone rang. "I was busy."
"Yeah whatever. I'm having a family dinner at Ricky's tonight. I want you to come, it's at 7 don't be late." Here she goes demanding shit again like she knew me. "I got shit to do Peaches."
"Don't be late." She repeated and hung up before I could say anything else.
