It's A Thug Thing - Book 2

Chapter 159

Ariel

We've spent the last couple days in Atlanta and leave out tomorrow. Kareem and Messiah have been following Khyree around the past couple of hours.

Meanwhile, Mila, Junior, and I just pulled up to Mia's grandma's house. We get out the car and I knock on the door.

A couple of seconds later she opens the door and lets us in. "Hey kiddos" She says hugging each of us individually.

I look around at the half empty house as we follow her into the kitchen. "What you making?" I ask taking a seat at the island.

She opens the oven and pulls out an apple pie. "Just something simple, I'll probably order take out for tonight since half this stuff is going on the truck in the morning" She says sitting the pie on the counter.

Junior looks at me. "Where's she going?" He asks.

I smile to myself. "I kinda convinced her to move to L.A" I say.

"How?" Mila asks.

I shrug.  "I told her if she found her a house that she liked, I'd pay for all her expenses including the house, and once this one sells, she can keep the money from that" I explain. "Plus she had mentioned she was already thinking about it cause she's tired of being so far from her family" I add.

"Now if you guys don't mind keep this between us and helping me pack up Mia's room" She says. "Rylan and Romeo will be here shortly to help cause they're finishing up their houses too" She adds.

"Wait, all of y'all are moving to LA?" Mila asks.

I nod. "But her uncles aren't selling, they said it's too much work" I say laughing and getting up. "I got Mia's room, y'all can help elsewhere" I add.

"Yeah cause ain't no telling what's in there" Junior says snickering.

I hit him in the back of the head. "Shut up" I mumble walking out and upstairs. My phone rings and I answer it seeing Mia.  "Hey baby" I say looking around her room.

"What you doing in my room?" She asks before smiling.  "Hey cutie" She says.

I sit on her bed and lay back. "I'm bout to take a nap cause I've been up since 6 this morning" I say yawning. "What you doing?" I ask.

She turns the camera and it's my sister and the girls all at some restaurant. "We went and got our nails done now we're eating then we're gonna do a lil shopping then I'm going home and taking a nap" She says. "What time you gone be home tomorrow?" She asks.

I check my calendar to see when the jets supposed to leave. "We leaving out at 11 so we'll probably be there around 12 some our time" I say.

She nods. "Sounds great, I haven't been able to sleep the last few nights and my back hurts" She whines. "Did yall get anything?" She asks.

I nod. "Yeah, from what Kareem told me last night Khyree got plans on coming back to LA in a few days to talk to Amari" I say. 

She makes a face. "I'll punch that nigga in his mouth so quick" She says. "Lemme call you back, my mama calling and she got Ty and King" She adds.

I say okay and she hangs up. Mila walks in and sighs. "I'm ready to go back home" She says plopping on Mia's bed. "This gone take a while ain't it?" She asks looking around at all the boxes propped against the walls.

I nod. "Yeah but I told you I got it unless you just wanna help" I say turning the tv on.

"I wanna help, just let me know what to do" She says getting up.

I look around for a second. "I guess we can start by taking her bed apart, then her vanity, dresser, and work towards the clothes" I say mentally making a plan.
