Run Ins

August

I hit the snooze button on my phone. 10 mins later it went off again.

"Lani turn dat shit off....." I closed my eyes. Forgettin' dat I had ta work.

"Aug get up.....you got work today." She said yawning.

"Damn I forgot." I quickly got up and took a quick shower. Put on my work uniform and kissed Lani befa' heading downstai's.

"Hey uncle going to work ?"

"Yup I gotta grab some breakfast real fast. "

"I'm cookin' "

"What you got ?"

"Toast eggs and sausage sandwich you want it ?" She said wrapping it in a paper towel.

"Thanks woe unk gotta go gimmie kiss"

With that bein' said and done I left. I got to work 15 minutes early so that I can meet up with my manager and talk to him about that weird ass nigga that came in yesterday and just left. Shit seemed fishy as fuck and he wanted us to report shit like that. When I walked in the devil himself was standing right thea' looking at phones.

"Wass good? You straight?"

"Yeah, I was in a rush yesterday but I'm good now. You gone help me?"

"I got like fifteen minutes until I clock in"

"Aight I'll wait"

"James is available right now if you need help."

"I said I'll wait" He laughed.

I fake giggled and walked away. Was this nigga gay? What the fuck.

"Hey Tommy, what's goin' on?"

"Nothing much. You need something?"

"I just came in here to tell you about that man thea' that came here yesterday and was acting real weird. On some funny stuff. He didn't even get a phone, he's back today though and he's asking for me. Keep an eye out on him, he don't seem right."

"I feel you. I'll keep a lookout"

"I'll go see what's up with him right now."

"Alright, come back after he's gone"

I walked outside of his office and went straight to this nigga. He stared at me the entire time. He gotta be gay. Shits weird as hell.

"What's up with you? You still tryna get a phone?"

"Yeah but I need something else too."

"Look man, I hate to break it to you but I'm not interested. Like forreal."

"What are you talking about"

"Nothing. Go on"

"I'm lowkey looking for a job but I'm fresh out. You think you can put me on? I really ain't tryna get back to slangin' on these streets and I need a fresh start. Help a nigga out"

"You serious?"

"As a heart attack."

"Good. Cause I thought you was a lil fruity. Had me feeling weird as a bitch. I think we still hiring though, you can still apply. I'll go tell my manager. We can set up this phone for you right now though."
