I wake up and immediately turn to set my feet onto the floor. I drop my head into my hands rubbing my eyes, loudly groaning since I'm still tired. I got a few runs to do today that I'm somewhat dreading but I can't complain.
This is the life I chose so I got to deal with it. I sat up setting my feet down onto the hardwood floors. I stretched before making my way to the bathroom to get ready for the day. I flicked the bathroom light on, wincing from the brightness. Once my eyes adjusted I stared at my reflection in the mirror.
I looked a fucking mess bro. I was in a plain white T shirt, basketball shorts, and long white socks. My face was hella puffy and my cheeks had lines on them from whatever the fuck.
I look like I slept good. I laughed to myself at the thought. I picked up my tooth brush to begin with brushing my teeth as I got ready for the day I had ahead of me.

"Nah them niggas busted a U-ey on the block when they seen us, man. When I tell you me and Mar was outta there." Jay said causing us all to laugh.
I was currently in the living room with my 2 roommates Jay and Mar. We all been living with each other since we was teenagers, due to us all bonding over the fact that we don't have any family.
But being in the streets and not having any parental figures in your life since such a young age is bound to get you caught up in some not so legal and safe shit. Jay just got out from serving 6 months in county and is currently on probation, and house arrest.
So due to him not being able to leave; me and Mar try to spend as much time as possible at home with him to keep him company. Which usually results in us going down memory lane.
"Nah deadhomies we was out that bitch I'm talm bout digging. Ain't see shit behind us but dust for real." Mar added causing us to all laugh even harder.
"We was jumping over trash cans and gates n shit."
My stomach hurt so bad from laughing causing me to almost drop the blunt that was in my hand on the carpet. It was times like this when I didn't really miss my family too much, because all the family I need is right here. These boys really been here with me through it all.
"Wait where were yall fools even at?" I asked.
"We was at Roscoe's Chicken N Waffles in South Central."
My eyes widened at this and I immediately got mad. "Yall dumb as fuck why was yall in Hoover territory with no protection? Yall could've got fucked up."
"Yeah but we didn't so wah wah." Mar's unserious ass said as he snatched the wood from my fingers.
Mar and Jay both gangbang. Both belong to the grape street crips out here in Compton. I remember the day they got jumped in like it was yesterday. Both of them came home looking like they got ran over by a train talm bout they did it for protection since it's just us.
Now I will say it did help us a lot. They gave us places to stay and food to eat when we didn't have shit, but I still wish that they didn't have to get involved with all that gang related shit. Because one thing about banging, is you in that shit for life. Rarely ever anybody come out alive.
Only reason why I didn't get put on was because one that banging shit is stupid and two, because I'm a female my initiation would've been a lot more complicated than just getting beat up. (iykyk)
