August Perspective

Should I do it

Yess

Maybe I shouldn't

Noooo

"Boy,Whatchu' out he a' doin'?"My mama voice called.I was pacing the floor with my hand behind my back.I shook my head stroking my goatee.

"Nun' ma."I stood still lookin' at da' landscape of 'da backyard.I'a could sense ha' comin' up from behind me,but I didn't pay it no mind.

"Pasta' Carmichael told me 'bout 'da solo you and Biggems gotta' do."She told me.

I smiled at da' fact she'a still called blessing Biggems.She'a gave ha' da' name a long time ago,and she'a ain't changing it.When Blessing used to come over to my house,my momma neva' remembered her name so she call her either beauty or biggems.
Biggems just so'a happened to stick.

"Yeah,I'm looking forward ta' singing with ha' like old times."

"Me too y'all use ta wear da' hell outta' dem' Damn songs.Make me wan' catch da holy ghost.Woo."She said smiling and rocking.I looked at ha'weirdly.I'a understand how she'a been tryna' stop cussin' since she got saved again,but it seem like it 'den gotten worsa'.I just laughed at her.

"Okay ma,I got a question doe'." I'a said putting my arm around her shoulda' blade.We slowly proceeded into the house.

"Wazzam'."

"Whatchu' know about Blessing Fiance?"She'a looked at me wid' curiosity.

"He'a a nice wholesome young man.He'a got his head on'a straight. He got'a good aim inna' life.Why you'a ask?"She explained.I shrugged my shoulders.I sat down at the island While momma watched me'a intently.

"Aug,you betta keep da' drama away from you.Blessing is happy.Just cause you want ha' back don't mean fa' you'a to go aroun' fuckin' shit up na'."She said getting out a pot.

"Ma,what is ya' talm bout I-"

She held her hand up.I sighed knowing I'a ain't finna' win'a dis' one 'hea.I sat back waitin' on ha' response.She sat out the seasoning for the chicken she was 'bout ta' make.

"August listen ta' ya' mama nah'.Ya' young folks think Dat just cuz im'a all old I don't know nun'.August don't chu' go meedlin'.I nodded getting up.

"I'a know momma,I'a gotta' get going.I'a be back for dinna' doe'."I'a kissed her cheek and grabbed my keys to leave.

I backed out da' driveway headed over to see my nieces real quick.I hadn't seen dem' three since'a last weekend when I'a took Kay to get some Uggs cuz' its getting cold.When I'a got to 'der house I saw the door swing open.

"UNCLE AUG!".'dey all screamed.I smiled as the three of them came to hug me.Dis' is proll' da' only reason I'a come home,miss em' like crazy.

"Hey my baybehs."I'a said bending down to hug em.

"We missed ya' uncle Aug."Chay blurted.
