No. 99 (Joey Bada$$)

64• Cipher

She pointed to a rat in the corner and I stood on the couch.

"Hell no!!" I shook my head as more rats came from a cage in the pantry. "Joey do you have pet rats!?"

"No the fuck I don't!!" He grabbed gloves and put all of them in a cage and threw them out the window.

"The how the he-" CJ got interrupted.

"WHO THE FUCK PUT RATS IN HERE!?" He yelled.

Everyone looked at Joey like he was crazy.

"Nothing. Don't nobody know shit!" He slammed his hand on the counter startling all of us. "How? Who?"

"I don't anyone of us would do some triflin' shit like that?" Aliyah said as she stepped off the couch and stood next to Joey.

His phone got a notification. "Threw rats out the window? Bad idea, Jo-Vaughn." He pursed his lips and turned his phone completely off.

Aliyah received a notification too, she read "Sorry, did I scare you all? Here, take your electricity back."

Everything turned back on.

"Don't text back." Laila said. "I know a guy in The Bronx near Jerome avenue that can probably help up out."

"Help us how? Find the stalker?" Pow asked as he took a sip of water.

"He's a computer geek. Issa." She said

"Issa live in the Bronx? You told me he lived down in Charlotte." Aliyah said

"He was just staying for a couple of months. I did tell you that he lived on Jerome."

"Then lets go then." Kwon exclaimed.

"Not so fast. We have to take a car, the train will be too open and train 4 is probably already in the Bronx, its past 6:00 p.m, its 6:26. It'll be another hour and a half waiting for it." CJ said

"Kwon's car isn't big enough for all of us anyway." I said

"I can call Nyck. He'll let us use his car and his mom's." CJ pulled his phone out "Three cars will carry 15 people."

"We probably only need two cars." I counted how many we were. "There are 10 of us. Me, Liyah, Laila, Dessy, Kirk, CJ, Indihoe I mean Indigo, Joey, Kwon, and Pow."

"Only problem is that I don't know how to get to the Bronx..." Laila said

"I do. I've been back and forth there so many times over the years I know it like my name." I bragged

"Oh really? You know your way, country gal?" Kwon said. "I don't think anyone of us know how to get there by car, we used to metro."

"Then why do you have a car?" I made a confused face.

"Just in case the train fucks up or something."

"Sure whatever, I'll drive Kwon's car and Aliyah can drive Nyck's." I said "We the only three with a drivers license."
