Hard Times Purify

F O U R

Karti ,

Sitting on the back patio , I looked over at Dale , Tate , Gee and Nico . They was engaged in a conversation about some bitches they ran across the other day at the mall or something like that . My mind was focused on one thing and one thing only ; Nico being a snake or not .

That might be my blood but you cant put nothing pass NOBODY !

"What got your balls all stuck together nigga? You over there in deep though?" Gee joked , puffing on his piff .

"Probably thinking about all the chores he got to do before Zih get home." Nico added in, laughing.

I just shook my head , "Nah , I'm just enjoying the fruits of my labor."

"Philosopher ass nigga." Dale chuckled , passing the blunt to Nico .

We sat and chated for about another hour or so . I kept looking over at Nico trying to read his body language . . . I came up with nothing .

*******

Zih ,

"Bye you cows!" I laughed , joking around with the kids

They came up with this crazy idea that today was "animal" day . Im a horse , my dad is a dog , Karen is a pig and their cows .

"Bye pony." Zuri smiled .

I kissed there noses and waved to my dad and Karen and walked out the door . Those kids of mine are indeed something else.

Getting into the Audi Truck Karti just purshaced for me, I dialed up Chelly who quickly got Meagan on the line.

"Its Friday. I dont have any kids, no job to be at tomorrow. I dont got shit to do! So please let me know whats going on?" Chelly yelled through the speaker.

"Well I do have a child, but she has a father. You know Im game. Just let me know. I havent been out in soooooo long." Meagan voiced, dragging the "so"

"My headaches are gone for the weekend and my husband has nothing planned for us, so of course Im down for a few drinks."

"Sweethearts it is. I say lets meet around 10-ish?" Meagan suggested.

"10 it is." I answered.

"Im happy. This is long over due. I havent been out with my favorite girls in about a month." Chelly stressed.

"I agree but Chells, put that fat ass bottom lip back in your mouth. You been at both of our houses maybe 4 times this month alone. You dont miss us that much to be pouting."

I laughed at Meagan. Girl was right though.

"Yeah, whatever trick. Remember that when you dont wanna pay for these damn drinks. Dont turn to me. Look at the other skiezer thats on this phone."

"Nope. Dont look my way. I got two kids!" I joked.

"Evil asses." She laughed.

"Well, Im about to hit the road, so I'll call you ladies back soon." I told them before ending the call and pulling out of my parents driveway.

Upon entering the house, I noticed Karti , Gee , Tate and Nico were here . There cars were outside .

"Fuck all yall!" I heard Gee laughing .

Opening the french door that led tp the patio , I greeted everyone with a Hi .

"Wassup sis ." Dale and Gee replied at the sametime .

"Hey bighead." Tate smiled.

Nico gave me his usual head nod .

Karti pulled me on his lap and kissed my cheek .
