"I ain't even think you was gone make it" Cel says as we share a brief hug.

"Come on I can't miss this, who cooked though I'm mad hungry" I question rubbing my stomach.

"Ya bestie in there but you better be quick cause niggas is ravenous" He shakes his head inhaling a cloud of smoke.

"Yo when ya vocabulary get so big?" I laugh heading in the direction of the kitchen.

"Yo fuck you!" He laughs behind me.

Walking in the kitchen I spot Star with a cup in her hand and a plate wrapped up in the other, creeping up behind her I cover her eyes with my hands.

"Guess who?" I smile.

"I was literally just going to look for you, here" She lifts the plate up to me and I take it from her hand pulling her in a hug.

"Always putting up a plate for me" I kiss her cheek before letting her go.

"Got to, these niggas don't think about nobody but themselves when food involved" She playfully rolls her eyes and I grab a plastic fork from behind her unwrapping the plate throwing the foil away.

"Yo who told quise to throw a barbecue?" I question taking a bite out of a baby back.

"This nigga swear he in his unc era" She chuckles as I laugh.

"I needed this vibe" I smile looking around the living room, it wasn't nothing but love in here.

It was refreshing after being so deep in my feelings this past month lowkey depressed but keeping it together, I had a deeper appreciation for this environment with my current mental state.

Taking a seat on the sofa I happily indulge in my meal while watching the game of 2k.

In fifteen minutes my plate was clean and I get up to throw it away and get a drink.

"Yo cardi what is you doing?!" Khalil exclaims as I walk past the tv.

"You getting smacked anyway shut up" I wave him off as everybody else laughs and he smacks his lips.

"Nigga I'm only down ten and it's a lot of clock left" He defends as I toss my plate in the trash.

Opening the fridge I grab a corona before going back in the living room.

"Bet 5 bands you don't come back with all that clock" I smirk walking around the tv this time to get back to my seat.

"Easy money" He says determined and I crack my corona open thoroughly entertained by the game now.

"We got a section tonight right?" Star asks quise who nods.

"Yup, this just some chill shit with the family little pregame type vibe but as soon as the sun goes down we outside fasho"
