Bruh Christmas was lit I got hunter a few things and lex a necklace as far as ma I paid a few bills and I got her a new outfit with the help off Linda. She moved out here btws. My birthday is tomorrow and we finna be in the club turnt. My phone buzzed.

Mama-can you come get hunter today
Snupe-yeah I'll be there in a few

I headed to ma's house and the first thing I passed by was E chilling with that old dude from a few months back. I gave E tha head nod and walked on. Tha dude mugged me and I shook my head. By the time I made it home I seen hunter watching spongebob holding tha mini spongebob I gave him. "Hey lil man," I said picking him up. He giggled waving spongebob saying "Snupe." He learned how to say it right last month and ever since he's been calling me that. "Ma!! Where you at??" I shouted. I put Hunter back on tha couch and went to ma's room. She was watching the news... Trayvon Martin case updates!! as it flashed across the screen. "Boy I wouldn't know what to do if I lost you Addarren... my heart goes out to his family," She said while turning off tha tv. "Ma you have to worry about that I'll be fine,"

She looked at me and then went back to doing her hair. "Just promise you'll stay out trouble,"She told me. "I wil-" "I'm serious Addarren." She cut me off. I nodded and went to give her a hug. She hugged me back and I felt tears on my shirt. "It's a cold world out here and I don't want them to take my baby," She sobbed. I held her tight and kissed her forehead. "I'm not going anywhere ma I promise," I said and I meant it too. Never will I let some bs take me from her and Hunter. She let go and got ready to leave for work. "I love you boy," She had a slight smile. " I love you too ma," I replied. She left out tha door leaving me and Hunter. "So what's tha move today hunt," I asked him. He pointed at the cereal saying "food." I was about to go get it for him then my phone rang.

"Hello" I said. "Yo fam we gotta go shoot for never change remember," Nyle said. Shit I forgot about that. "I got hunter Mayne I'm babysitting," I replied back. "Bring lil man he can be in it too," I laughed at the thought of it but I agreed to meet him in 10 minutes. "Ight see you then," I hung up. I looked at Hunter who was already eating the cereal out the box. I smiled and went to join him who wasnt trying to share so I made a sandwhich. After we ate we got dressed and left for tha shoot. I seen c'nyle setting up so I decided to scare him. "BOO!!!" I shouted which made Nyle jump. All I could do was laugh. "Aye Mayne that shit ain't funny!" He shouted but then he ended up laughing too. After everything was set we started shooting at different places. Lex came to watch hunter and brought me some southern classic... Bruh when I tell I tore that chicken up.... mayneeee!!

We finished shooting around  8:30 so I grabbed hunter and headed back to the crib with lex. As we was walking I heard somebody shout my name. "Aye pussy nigga you ain't bout that shit you rap," this person said. I turned to tha nigga from earlier... he was smiling "but you ain't go do shit mayne," I shouted back at him. "Come do something then," raising his shirt to show his heat. "You a bitch nigga come fight with yo hands not a gun I'm bout that shit leggo mayne all day," I said I was pissed and ready to fight. "Snupe stop we got hunter here remember,"

I looked at his face and picked him up then walked off. "Yeah run little nigga," he shouted. We walked in silence till we got home. "What was that about?!?" She asked. I put Hunter to bed in my room then came back and turned on the tv. "Hello Addarren I know you hear me," She yelled. "Aye Mayne keep your voice down hunter trying to sleep." I yelled back softly. "Then answer my question what tha fuck happened snupe why did that man say that who is he?" She asked. "Look don't worry about that alright he one of E's friends," I replied. "E!!! E ass is gonna get you killed or in jail if you keep fucking with him," She said sternly. "Mayne why you keep bringing that shit up it was one time!"I hollered. She stared at me with disbelief... I know what she's talking about when E sent me to jail when I was selling rocks.... he was my big brother growing up cause pops was locked up but I forgave him and moved on but my surroundings thought that was stupid I didn't see how. We just stared for a minute then she left... I could tell she's pissed
