MALANI P.O.V.

You leaving? I asked Harlem as he was putting his jacket on and I was coming from upstairs.

Yeah I gotta go handle somethin!
My phone started ringing and we both leaned over to look at it. It was that dude Duke calling me. "Second time he called you, might wanna handle that!" He smirked.

I don't want him.

Could have fooled me.....the way he had you smiling the other day.

You jealous?

Can't no nigga ever make me jealous of something I had before. He a good dude you might like him. He laughed picking his keys and phone up, grabbing his gun putting it on his waist.

Oh so I can go on a date? With him...

Malani your single do you! You been made it clear we aren't going to be together.

Okay, don't be tryna shoot at us if you see us out.

I wouldn't even crash out like that. You good dude! Enjoy the rest ya day shorty. He laughed and walked away from me. I followed him to the door. "And you thought I didn't give a fuck about what you said the other day, but in reality you ain't give a fuck about what I said the other day." He said turning around to face me before opening the door. He smiled and walked out.

I do care! I yelled after him. He nodded his head and kept walking to his car. I rolled my eyes and went over to my ringing phone. "Hello?" I answered.

Damnnnn lul baby thought you gave me the wrong number or something for a second.

No sorry I was just a little busyy! I laughed.

Oh ight, I can call you back lata.

No it's cool, I can talk now. What's up with you?

Shit I was tryna see if you wanted to slide through, we having a lil kick back at the trap. And I wanted to see if you wanted to chill on me?

Mmm I don't know I'm not really the type to be all out in the scene.

Oh you lowkey!

Yeah something like that....

Damn okay, okay, shiddd I'd like to be low key with chu. He laughed.

I mean that can happen maybe. What time ya kick back start? I'll slide through for a bit.

Like round 9. Call me when you get here.

Okay I will!

Ight lul baby. He smiled hard through the phone before hanging up.

I wasn't the type to really pop out, especially now that I'm grown and I just been low key. The less people know that I'm alive the better. But tonight I wanted to see how far I could push Harlem since he doesn't care if I go out with Duke. I know he lying. And 9 times out of 10 he's going to be there. Probably where he went anyways.

I went upstairs to my room and fumbled around my closet for something to wear. I wanted to look sexy as fuck but like not to much cause it was the hood kick back. And if anything popped off I wanted to be able to get outta there. So I just grabbed my black long sleeve body suit, a black vest, a pair of high Nike socks, and my panda dunks. Simple but cute.

I went to go jump in the shower letting my hair get wet again so my curls could look alive again. I washed my hair before getting out.

I put some deep curling cream in my hair and pinned it  after fusing it to keep the length long and super curly. My curls fell just under my shoulders perfectly. I laid my edges and started on my make up. A simple everyday glam will do it tonight.

I got dress and grabbed my wallet and phone. By the time I was done getting myself together It was almost 10. I got in my car and made my way into the hood and to the address he gave me. It wasn't nothing but a bunch of niggas there drinking, gambling, smoking, a bunch of bitches. It was a a mess. I didn't see Harlems car or anything out here.

I called Duke and told him I was outside. I didn't plan to stay long. Just show my face and get up outta here. It was too much for me. Duke came walking down the stairs and I got out the car to meet him. I hit the lock button on my doors before embracing him in a hug. He smelt so good.

How you doing beautiful.

I'm good how are you? I smiled.

Shit I'm straight now that you in my presence.

Awww you cute! You want a drink or something?

Nah I'm okay, is Harlem here?

Who?

I mean Scar? He here?

Nah he really don't pop out over here too much unless he doing a drop or some shit. You was with him the other day what yall like cool or something? I know you couldn't have been fuckin on him cause he let me holla at you in his face.

Mmmm we real close, what he say?

He didn't! Should I ask?

I mean it's up to you! I laughed.

Nah ima keep it playa, aye doe come on in. You lookin all cute an shit! He smiled grabbing my hand. He lead me into the house. Nothing but weed met me at the door right along with loud music. Bitches was walking around naked, doing coke, drinking, more gambling. It was just wild in here. Duke lead me to the kitchen and I seen Gionni which was Harlems best friend and he looked at me weird.

Yo I know you not with this nigga! Gionni laughed jumping off the counter giving me a side hug.

Why you know something I don't G? I laughed.

Back off my soon to be wifey! Duke laughed wrapping his arm around my neck holding a shot in his other hand.

She most definitely is spoken for!

I'm most definitely am single! I laughed stopping Gionni.

You and I both know how that nigga get. He said pulling his glasses down smirking before laughing looking up. "There he go right there!" He said making me turn around. Harlem was walking towards the kitchen with an annoyed look on his face.

He looked at me then at Duke and laughed a bit. "Yo meet me in my office!" He said to Gionni.

Her too? He asked grabbing me.

Harlem looked at me than at Duke. "Nah she can stay with her nigga!" He said before walking away.

Want a shot? Duke asked opening a new bottle.

Sure....
I agreed to the shit cause I seen it come out a brand new bottle. We took two shots of Henny and I was feeling it a bit. That shit burned putting some hair on my chest. We were having a good time though. Taking shots and laughing with girls and guys in the kitchen.

I seen some girl all over Harlem. She was beautiful too. She was flirting hard. He looked like he was into her. Once he flashed those dimples it was over. I saw them walk outside together and now I realize my plan back fired on me. I was salty a bit.
