The Boondocks: a Huey\Jazmine love story

session xii: Get Away

[song title: The Internet - Get Away]

If money doesn't fall from trees
Maybe we can make believe today
All I need is company
Rest assured - I got it babe

– Syd (of the Internet / ODD FUTURE)

"I wanna get lost with you
Fly with you
Get by with you
And if God allow me to..
I'd die for you
Cause I love you
Jazmine."
///// a few hours earlier.... \\\\\\

I had never felt as suspenseful before as I had today, looking for Jazmine was a hard thing to do.
And even I knew she would never be gone from her home as long. And to think this shit happening on my 17th birthday.*

[brief author's note: in this story Huey shares the same birthday as I do - which is February 15th. Now that we got that out the way - RESUME THE STORY!! 😂😂]

Heading to the playground - I oversaw Jazzy, eyes full of tears, and very disheartened...
What the fuck was going on?
I was beyond confused. 
I wanted to know what was happening to my baby..
The feels right now, driving me crazy.

"Baby you ok?" I ask, when approaching her.
"No...." Jazmine said.
I don't feel she was gonna tell me what was really going on. How was I gonna truly know what was going through her mind?
She'd have to let me know...

"Huey.. my...grandmother.. Just died..
She just passed today..."

Crying her eyes, I feel the same pain... The first time in 12 years..

The pain I felt when I lost my parents back in Chicago... I had no idea Jazzy was going through it...
That's why she ran away,
Didn't say what the hell was going on.
It drove me insane..

"Jazz... I'm so sorry about your loss... I wouldn't have thought you was going through it...
Jazz... I'm so sorry.."

"HOW THE FUCK WOULD YOU KNOW, HUEY??" She suddenly screams at me... Unexpectedly.

Tears of anger are rolling down my face as I begin to tell her my growing pains that's literally tearing me apart.

Stressful as hell. But it comes out.

"You really wanna know?
Do you honestly know what it feels like?
To want to be with your mother and father, together? Living in harmony?
Living like you could have them both together with you?
Living without a care in the goddamn world?
Living with thinking.. Just thinking that you could see your parents together again?
Do you understand?
I said the truth fucking hurts,
And I was right,
But now I realize that even my words can hurts myself and I was being heartless like I could get my revenge on the whole damn world for the bullshit and the facts that a full clip was used to kill my fucking mother and father, in a fucking drive-by,
Having to try to cope with losing my parents and you say I don't know what the fuck you're going through, Jazmine DuBois?
Do you honestly know what  I'm going through?
I have to live with the fact that I can't bring my parents back, from wrongfully being murdered?
How I wanna take my revenge out on this fucked up world?
Do you know?
My vision? My vision of this world?
I could crash your illusions and illustrious fantasy of what you think you know about loss of family?
You may have lost your matriarch but I lost my parents,
And I can't get them back,
Me and my brother Riley gotta deal with our future children asking,
'Daddy, what was Granddad and Grandma like?'
Do you know what the fuck loss is like now?
You got it all, Jazmine.
You have your mother and father, so don't you dare try to say I don't know what this is like, because I do!
Don't you see?
I don't want that to happen to us.
I love you Jazmine.
Do you understand I wanna getaway with you?
I want to live in a future where our kids get to see us together, and to be alive and not die from fucking drive-bys?"

With a deep sigh, I say,

"I wanna get lost with you
Fly with you
Get by with you
And if God allow me to..
I'd die for you
Cause I love you
Jazmine."

Tears roll down both of our faces... And she says, "I love you too, Huey..."
As we kiss, and I say, "Let's go home...."

We went home and next thing I know.. All those stresses we had were gone as we had crazy and wild sex.

//// the morning after \\\\

as we lay together, I found myself singing,

"If money doesn't fall from trees
Baby we can make believe today
All I need is company
Rest assured.. I got it babe.."
