"𝐉𝐀𝐕𝐎𝐍𝐈, my feet are hurtinggg. we been walking around for hours and you only picked up two things!" I complained making a dramatic pout with my mouth.
"Jayda." Javoni replied in a warning tone, granted I was on my sixth complaint in under 4 minutes. But I didn't care, I was ready to go home and lay down.
Smacking my lips and rolling my eyes, I decided to wonder off on my own.
"Ok fine. I'm going to the food court, do you want anything?" I asked with a semi-attitude, cutting her eyes at me she just shook her head slightly and continued swiping through the clothing racks.
I walked off hearing her mumble "brat ass girl" under her breath making me smirk a little.
Opening my phone and getting on tiktok, I turned the volume down and start heading towards the food court.
Truthfully, I didn't even know what I had a taste for I just wanted to sit down and rest my feet in all honesty.
Noticing the change of pattern on the tile I knew I had reached my destination, looking around briefly at all the available spots and tables. I walked to the one smack dead in the middle, it was a weird habit of mine.
Pulling out a chair I sat down and crossed my ankles outwards and continued scrolling the tiktok, casually looking around here and there.
After about twenty minutes of scrolling I texted Javoni and asked her what was taking so long and that I was ready to go to which she replied an eye rolling emoji and a quick "getting ready to pay and then im coming"
Hearting her message, I swiped out of the conversation and closed my phone, standing up, and heading towards Chic-Fil-A. Javoni and I was so excited once we found out they replaced the old Panda Express with this.
"Hi, may I please have two medium strawberry lemonades"
The total was $4.25, but just as i double clicked the side button on my phone a brownskin tatted hand slapped a $20 dollar bill on the counter..
"Keep da change"
Following the hand with my eyes I finally reached the "strangers" face. It was the dude from the party the other night, he had on a plain white wife beater, black jeans and crisp air forces a large chain decorated his neck loosely.
Looking behind him was also the same guy from the kitchen. He had on all black. black shirt, black jacket, black jeans and even black air forces. I can tell this was his usual attire.
I noticed that they would wear chains and watches here and there but never to be flashy, just to simply show they had it.
"Ya welcome' the brownskin male spoke softly breaking me from my slow trance..
"Thank you, what's your cashapp? I'll send it back to you right now." I said pulling my phone back out and going to cashapp.
"Ian got cashapp"
"Zelle?"
"Nope"
"Apple Pay?"
"Nah"
"Chime?"
"Unt unt"
"Pay-
"Look shawty' ian takin ya money so just getcha drinks and think of this as a good deed" he cut me off making me laugh a little..
"Well thank you, Mr.Sir" I replied gently taking the cups of lemonade from his hands.
"Mr.Sir? ian neva heard dat one befo'
"I never got your name after you so rudely walked away from me and my girlfriend at the party the other night. So 'Mr.Sir' it is for now"
Granted. I did know their names well their street names I should say, I just wanted to know if they would tell me them.. Out their own mouths.
Nodding his head he looked towards the lightskin man who gave him a simple nod .. almost like granting him permission.
"I'm Kentrell and dis Hassen"
"Nice to meet you" I replied laughing a little and taking a sip of my drink. Out their corner of my eye I seen Javoni making her way to me with a neutral look on her face, I hated how sometimes I couldn't read her.
"Hey baby" she spoke kissing my lips softly and pulling back. Her small eyes naturally made their way towards my company and stopped.
"Whatcha' yall stalkin us or something?"
"Nah man' we was gettin us some duck noodles and we saw ha over here so we just decided to come say 'wassup' Kentrell explained calmly.
Which was surprising but then again, I didn't know them all that well. Just street whispers.
"Oh.. hi" Javoni spoke timidly causing me to grab her hand reassuringly. I hate that my baby was so shy and reserved but I loved it because that's who she was.
"Anywaysss, Nardo you let Kentrell do all the talking or you use your words like a big boy?" I questioned slightly lifting one of my eyebrows.
"Nah jit, he just the one who won't shut up"
"We was on our way to the studio, yal tryn' slide? No weird sht slime, we ah drive our car and yal ca' drive yours, yal ca' just follow us" Kentrell asked stammering over his words a bit.
I looked at Javoni for an answer, I was down with it and I was intrigued by them and I know she was too.. But we weren't going to go, if she didn't want too.
Softly nodding her head, I looked back at Kentrell and Hassen with a smile..
"Ok, meet us at the front entrance and we ah start trailing' yall from there"
..
back and better than ever, yall keep me motivated w this book please lmfao. excuse any mistakes. love yall <3
