Lil Twisted Love

Tired of your bull$hit

Jaden's POV

I woke up by the sound of my alarm clock. I sighed and sat up. 6:00. Great, I thought. I'm up too early. I took a shower, brushed my teeth, fixed my hair, and got dressed. I wore my black and white Nike slides, black Nike elite socks, black and white basketball shorts, and a white t-shirt. I got on my laptop since I had about an hour to kill. I checked my Facebook and I had a new message. It was from twist. Why didn't he just text me? I thought. I opened the message. "Aye bro, I'm real sorry for goin off on ya the other day. Your welcome with the crew anytime. Catch me at school this morning I gotta talk business with you. Aight, seeya bro." I covered my face with my hands for a few seconds trying to think. Business? What kind of business? I said quietly to myself. I already told his ass that I didn't want no part of that gang or the drug deals, I thought. Maybe it's about something else, I thought, reassuring myself. Probably not. I walked downstairs and sat at the table. My little sister was eating her breakfast quietly. I sighed, grabbing an orange. I got up and grabbed my backpack. I told my parents bye and walked out of the door. It was 7:00 and I didn't have to be at school until 8:00. I walked to twist's house as usual. He met me on the sidewalk a few blocks from his house. Aye man, I was on my way to your crib, I said, giving him dap. He laughed and pulled me to the side and started walking the other direction. With his arm around my neck, (no homo) still walking, he put on a serious game face. Where we going? I asked confused. School's the other way I said pointing in the other direction. Yeah, he said, which is why we are going this way. Dude, I can't skip, my parents are already on my case. Dude!, he said mocking me. When did you become such a pussy? He asked me. I rolled my eyes. What business did you want to handle with me? I asked. Oh, I just wanted to tell you that leaving the gang was one of the worst mistakes you could've done. Even worse than hanging around my girl, he said loudly, shoving me. We didn't do nothing, twist, I said. Yeah, sure, he snarled. You treat her like shit anyway, I shot back. He smiled, sarcastically, what did you just say? He asked, raising his voice. Haha nothing that you don't know, I said. I ain't got time for your bullshit, I yelled. I pushed past him, and walked towards the school. I do treat her right, and I know it! He yelled after me. I kept walking, ignoring him. I looked at my watch, 7:30. I kept going until I got to school. I walked in and went to my locker. I got my government stuff and slammed my locker. I was the first person in my class, ms Conningham eyed me suspiciously. You ok, jaden? She asked, concerned. Yeah, I'm good, I replied, checking my watch, again. After a few minutes, people starting piling in. Among those people, was star.

Star's POV

I walked into government and saw jaden. I smiled at him, he smiled back, weakly. You ok? I asked. Yeah, he said. I could tell he was lying. I'm really glad we are friends now, I told him. Yeah me too, he replied. We have all of the same classes, except for twist is in all of them too, except for science. Yeah, I know, he said. Jaden? I asked. Yeah, he said, turning around to face me. What did twist do? It's so obvious he did something to you. Am I that transparent? He asked, innocently. No, I replied, twist called me earlier and told me not to hang around you, and that's why I broke up with him, I said smiling. He looked confused. What? I asked. Nothing, it's just that this morning, he told me to stay away from his girl and that was after you broke up with him, so I think he thinks you two are still a couple, he said. I don't really care anymore, I replied, nonchalantly. Just then class started and I didn't talk to jaden anymore that period. Math class went by extremely fast, twist must've skipped, I thought. He wasn't in 1st period either. But he isn't my problem anymore. As a matter of fact, I think I might be developing a crush on Jaden. O.o

Twist's POV

I decided to skip school today. My dad don't care, he don't care about shit since my mom left. I hate both my parents but I hate my mom the most. She left when I was 12 I still remember her though. I remember her being a hoe, I remember her never being there for me, I remember her leaving for weeks at the time and no one knowing where she would be going, until one day she never came back. It's a shame but I gotta be a man about everything. I have money, I support my father. I know it sounds corny but if it wasn't for my father being so depressed and poor, I would've never become a part of the gang. I founded it actually. I was about 15 and I was in gym with a bunch of my friends. We were talking about people always talking shit and a lot of other stuff we were fed up with. Then I had the idea of creating a pact. It started small with just a few friends but then we starting getting violent. We started a few riots and before we knew it we were dealing drugs. A few years later and now we have a total of 20 members. We call ourselves the triple Ts so basically it's just TTT don't ask why, we just thought it up and made it the official name. Anyway, I was in downtown LA walking towards a gas station. I checked my wallet, I had 45 dollars with me, a 20$ gift card for Walmart, and my drivers license. I walked in observing the place. There was a foreign middle aged guy behind the counter, he was too busy smoking weed to notice me walk in. It was around 12:00 and I hadn't eaten all day. I got some chips and a redbull. I walked up to the counter and shoved my stuff forward towards him. He eyed me, got up from the chair he was sitting in, and rang up my items. $3.50 he said in a weird accent. I pulled out a 5 dollar bill and he handed me my change. I thanked him and was on my way out, when I heard someone yell my name. I turned around and the cashier guy was behind me with a creepy smile on his face. What? I asked. I recognize you from several years ago. What you mean? I asked confused. He laughed slowly, then spoke, "you used to be good friends with Chresanto, my son. He goes by roc now, I believe." Yeah, I said relieved. That kinda changed when my mom left, I said looking down. It's ok, he said with a warm smile in his face. If you see him, tell him I said that I love him and when I find myself again ill be there for him again. What happened? I asked, as if I had known this guy for centuries. I got involved with the wrong people and wrong habits, the next thing I know I was hurting the ones I loved, so I left. I ran away. I never looked back. I just got back in LA last month. I got a job here to support myself. I don't think I'll ever be able to face him again. He teared up as he explained. I felt a little bad for him. I thanked him and headed out the door. I couldn't help thinking that I might be going through the same problem as Roc's dad. I shook the thought away and turned on my game face. I nodded at some women that drove by, and I sat quietly at a bench eating my food. I took off my brown fedora and pulled out a 100.00 bill I had kept in there for emergencies. I ran back to the gas station. Roc's dad looked shocked to see me again. What can I do for you son? He asked smiling. It's not what you can do for me, I said grinning. It's what I'm doing for you, I replied handing him the money. Oh my goodness, twist! He said hugging me (no homo) I laughed and told him to have a good life. I walked back home and went up to my room. I laid back feeling good. I realized that what I had done for Roc's father was also helping roc. I treated roc like shit, I thought. I've been a bitch to him these past few years. But I just paid him back for all of the shit I've put him through. I'm giving him his father. I feel really good about myself. I fell asleep feeling good. When I woke up I noticed it was 4:30. Wow, I thought. I slept a long time. I went downstairs and I nearly died when I saw who was waiting in the living for me. Mom? She started tearing up. She abruptly got up and ran to hug me. I'm so sorry Chris, she said through tears. I was a horrible mother, and if I could take it back I would. I could only stare at her with disbelief. I tried getting words out but the thought of talking to her made me choke. I finally got enough air and courage to say one thing. I love you mom, but get out. I don't want to see you. She nodded her head. Like she understood my angriness. She walked out without saying anything. That's the 3rd time this month, I thought. I sat on the couch where my mother was minutes before. The air smelled like her. It smelled like apples and cinnamon. I held back my tears while a starting working on a new rap.
