Colorado Living

chapter 1: intro to pooh

**Pooh pov**

I was about a week away from turning 10 when I left my island of Hawaii to go to Colorado to be with my mom I only seen once in a picture. From what I heard my dad say to my grandma when they thought i was sleep was that my mom wasn't shit but junkie and a hoe. Now im not too sure what junkie means but ive seen way too much mtv to not know that shes had some experience in the sex department. I hated her already. Its her fault im leaving my friends and my beaches behind. I loved it here. How dare she tell my dad im not his. Ive lived with this man my whole life. I look like him... well I have my days. And Im not dumb I know that this will be my last time here. Hearing him tell me he loved me. Hugging me. Kissing my forehead and tucking me in everynight. Attempting to do my hair then me taking it out and doing it myself. I guess its not easy raising a girl by himself. Especially when shes not even yours.

8 years later

I woke up to sound of my moms voice screaming my name across our two bedroom apartment.
"Pooh if you dont get yo ass up now!! You gunna miss that damn bus!! I dont pay these bills and keep these lights on just for you to fuck around and be nothing in life!!" Man I hated when talked shit this early. I must have truly lost my nerve cyz I decided to comment. " Yeah right you keep that shit on to sit on ass and your dumb avatar game all day and feed your face... your not even paying the bills... your government does.. your just like all these lazy ass black ppl around here. The only difference is at least they sale drugs and make money... your just a bum bitch" I knew that would piss her off so I turned on my speaker and turned it up to the max just to drown as much as voice out as possible while I took care of my hygiene. I quickly put on my polo cargo shorts, my navy and red polo shirt, with my white red and navy jordans. I threw on my silver chain with my diamond earrings to match. I grabbed my phone my coat and housekeys and headed out the door... completely ignoring my mom who still managed to be talking shit that whole time.

As I hopped on the city bus and listened to a few crazy conversations I made an early stop deciding against school today. I made my way down the snow covered street. Passing by a set of townhomes I spotted Kray-z walking out of one our weedmans house. Kray wasnt nobody to fuck with I mean the girls name tells it all. Shes far from sane when shes faded Which was all the time. I met her awhile back when she was kinda close to one of my ex's. We fell off when we broke up then I found out a few months later that she wanted my head cuz her girlfriend who was also my bestfriend had a secret crush on me. I mean it was just as much news to me as it was to her. We finally saw eachother and instead of fighting we talked it out like on some grown shit. And every since we've been tight but every now and then we find ourselves on opposite sides of situations just because we are so different. But thats still my nigga.
She stopped and waited for me to catch up to her. I noticed she was wearing my all black Nike's I left at her house the other night and the rest of outfit followed in all black. She must be planning a lick later on.
"Nigga did you not get my text?" She said staring at my clothes like there was a fire. I shook my head in response as i went to put my headphones in my pocket.
"Well I texted you saying wear all black. We mobbin today with Mk and some niggas. Butthats good enough I guess.. were you actually going to school today?" She finally stopped talking so I could answer her.
"1st of all you got my damn shoes on. 2 goodmorning to you too nigga I slept great howd you sleep? 3 when am I ever actually in school unless its lunch... finally when we smoking that?" We both laughed and started heading towards the YMCA which was only a few minutes away.

When we walked in the whole group was already there playing UNO like we only know how. I went around hugging lesha, terry, and that one chick they always bring around from time to time. Shes never been too important to me but the ladies seem to like her. Then I dapped up my niggas ant,zay, Mk and lilbit. After Zay won kray announced it was blunt time. We all split up between ants car and leshas and met up at the middle school park a few blocks away. While in the car mk and kray told me zay and lilbit the plan tonight.

"Man if y'all talking bout robbing some rich white niggas imma need to be higher than what this gram getting me." I requested with no hesitation. The others agreed and we settled the rest of the concerns over our blunt.

10:45pm
I was getting blown up by my mom and sister all day. I was too high to be fucking with them right now.
We drove up to a house a ways past freddys restaurant up north on the better side of the city. I made a mental note that I should move up here once I get my life together either the right way or this way.
