Zoee

Selling dope aint for me. I barely sold the half of merch that Jermaine gave me. I had two hundred dollars right now and that wasn't going to do nothing but tease my mom with one session of treatment. I needed to sell the rest or get money another way. I stood on the corner waiting for a customer when I seen a suspicious car driving around. At that point I knew something was up so when they turned the corner I took the last few tubes and threw them into the drain that was on the side of the curb. When I seen the car come back I already knew what was about to go down.

"Get on the ground now" A tall skinny white man with dirty blonde hair said

I did as I was told not wanting no problems.

"So what you doing out here hoeing or sellin huh" He said as he placed the cuffs around my hands and stood me up. "Did you hear me"

"Yeah I just chose not to answer"

He laughed a little "Oh so we got a smart ass on our hands. Look if I ask you a question you have to answer so what's the answer"

"I don't have to answer without a lawyer"

He nodded "Seems like you know your law"

"Rich lets just pat her down and take her to the station we don't having time to be dealing with little girls" A short black man said

They patted me down but found nothing. All they found was the money so they said that they had to take me to the station because of the amount of cash I had on me. I don't know if they really had to do that or if they were just being ass holes but whatever it was I was just ready for this to be all over.

"Please state your full name and just the letter of your middle name" The women at the front desk said.

I sighed "Zoee J Williams"

"Okay have you ever been to jail in any other city"

"Now"

"Have you ever been to jail in this city"

"No"

She sighed and popped her gum "What are you in here for"

"I don't know I didn't do anything but they told me I had to much cash on me so I guess that's why" This was a waste of my time honestly

She typed the last word and got up "I need everything to be put in this bag and then given back to me then you go to that women over there and she will place you in a holding cell"

I did as she told and went over to the women. She put me in a cell by myself and told me that I would have two free calls but after that I had to pay for them. I had two people in mind Jermaine and my mom. I didn't want to call my mom and I didn't want to call Jermaine and make him think that I actually needed him for help again. So there was only one last person.

"Hey King it's Zoee I hate to call you like this but I need your help I'm in here but I have no way home so I was wondering if you could drive me home if it's not a problem..Okay thanks so much"

That was settled. I didn't have a bond because I didn't do anything and they can't prove that I was selling or anything so they couldn't charge me for anything.

The women opened up the cell "Your free to go"

"Thanks"

"Your things are at the front desk"

I picked my things up and signed a paper saying that I was realesed and was free to go. I was so embarrassed walking out of there.

"I am so sorry to call you this late" I said to King honestly meaning it

He smiled and shook his head "It's nothing I told you that I always have time for cuties"

I smiled and got into the car "I promise I didn't do anything so if your thinking that I'm a bad person and stuff I promise I'm not"

"You ain't gotta explain anything to me I didn't ask and none of my business"

I nodded "Okay"

"So where am I taking you"

"Huh the same place you dropped me off at when we were walking"

He nodded his head "The ghetto here we come"

"What's that supposed to mean"

He stopped at a red light "Nothing it was just a joke"

"Well it would be nice if you didn't make anymore like that"

He began to drive again "Okay sorry if I offended you"

"You don't have to apologize just don't say anything like that anymore"

The rest of the ride was silent and awkward I wasn't really feelin him at this point. That joke made it seem like he thought he was better than me or something.

He stopped in front of my house "Alright here we are"

I turned to open the door "Thanks"

He grabbed my arm preventing me from getting out "What's up with you why you start acting like this"

"It's nothing I'm just tired"

He let my arm go "Alright call me soon and not while your in jail"

I fake smiled and shut the door. Walking into the house I turned on the lights and found Jermaine sleeping on my couch. I really hope that he just got locked out of his house.

I finally updated! Don't know but my writers block suddenly left and I just started writing/typing. It's not the best but hopefully I can keep this up and make the chapters more interesting.

Why do you think Jermaine is sleeping on the couch.?

Do you think Zoee overreacted about the ghetto joke.?
