Quan Tae POV:
I'm Quan Tae & I'm 19 years of age. I'm a Crip and I like to gangbang and start riots. I don't like people who talk sh*t. I'm mean and don't get along with people unless they're on my level. I like being in charge and I don't take no for an answer. I live in Memphis, Tennessee. My family and I are originally from Chicago. My daddy died in prison and my mama is a single parent raising my little brother Quin and I. My little brother is 10 years of age and I'm very protective over him. I don't want him to end up like me but if he does it is what it is. I dropped out of highschool a couple years ago. I slang dope and rob people. I don't regret anything I did or I'm doing. Everybody has a different way to live and everyone has to find some type of way to stay alive. I've never been caught up in anything except fighting. To be honest, I've never killed anyone. Everyone thinks I have. I've been in many fights though. I've never been able to keep my cool. People just get on my nerves. I'm not scared of anyone. Everyone just likes to do that talking sh*t and don't throw any hands. I put my words to actions. People are always bucking and I'm just trying to show how I'm feeling. I'm hard-headed and I don't listen to anyone. No one bosses me around. No one tells me what to do. That's why I had to quit school. I actually learned basic skills in school but everybody thinks I'm slow. I've never been in love. I don't even know what that feels like. I like all genders. I mainly pertain to girls though. No one knows about me being slick gay. It'll ruin my entire reputation that I've built. I don't trust anyone. It is hard as hell to gain my trust. I don't like people at all and it just makes my trust issues worse. I couldn't even trust my dad. He was a snake and all that mess. That's why he's dead and I ain't. All that sneak-dissing he been doing all his life. Shit ain't right. To me, money isn't shit. I got it all day. I chase it all day. I'm the breadwinner in the family. My mother isn't proud of what I do but she respects my everyday hustle. I could die at any moment and everything in my mother's life will go to shit. Momma don't work. She's disabled and can't take care of herself. She can't function properly and I have to help her any way possible. My brother is going to grow up to be successful the right way. I don't want him on the streets. I want to move us out of the hood and take us to better places. I can't let my momma and bro down. I live for my family. I've been hurt so many times it's made me so heartless and cold. It's made me the way I am. I can't help that I'm mean as hell. I can't change that. I won't change for anyone. No one is as important as my family to me. People use to make fun of me in school because I'm short but I never really took it to the heart. I just showed them I was little and could work my hands. No one ever messed with me until I got to bucking with folks. I fight dirty. I'll grab a n*gga by his throat, choke his a*s, slang him on the ground, and stomp his face and throat in. I can't talk sh*t out. When I think about things that make me angry it just makes me stop what I'm doing and proceed to beat a n*gga a*s. I like to throw sh*t, bust out windows, punch holes in walls, break sh*t and some more. My dad had real bad anger issues too but worse than me. He killed people. I ain't never did that. He killed his two brothers and use to abuse us. I'm really glad he's gone. He use to abuse and take advantage of my momma because she's got a mental disability. She's slow. Like really slow. She can't walk and stays in bed all the time. My brother isn't slow. He's really smart. I'm not going to let him drop out. He is going to stay in school and grow up to be better than me. I'm going to be the father he never had. I'm going to show him the things dad never showed me. I'm soft as hell when it comes to my family because I love them a lot. I have a small list of friends I consider as family. Its only about four n*ggas. My twin friends Detavis and Artavis, my n*gga Deion, and my other n*gga Janius. I've known all of them since preschool. All of them gangbangers except Janius. He's a college boy. He's also the oldest. He's a college football player headed towards the NFL. He doesn't like to break the rules but he likes to have fun. He's a total player. He gets all the girls. He's the h*e magnet. B*tches always cling to him. He's in a serious relationship with a girl named Taylor from our old high school. Detavis and Artavis have been slanging dope since the 5th grade. They're loud and like to f*ck sh*t up. They like loud music and throwing sex parties. They ain't never going to settle down. They both got baby mamas' and two kids each. Reggie is silent but deadly. He's scary like Fredo Santana. He doesn't play around like me but he is way worse. He's worse than my dad was. He's a killer and always ready to bust a cap in a n*gga. He doesn't talk much but when he does it's serious. He's the one that taught me how to slang sh*t and rob n*ggas.
