The Streets Call / URBAN FICTION

Suprise

Walking away from my locker I walked over to my bestfriend Toni. "Hey girla." I said with a big smile on her face but only to see her turn around with her eyes bloodshot red. "Ni what's wrong?" I asked wiping every tear that fell from her face. It was obvious something wrong had happened so I took her by her arm and dragged her into the restroom. Entering the stall I dropped everything from my hands placing both hands on either sides of her face. "Now talk to me Toni whats wrong?" "Ch-ch- hop br-broke-" I stopped her mid sentence noticing the answer to the question I had previously asked. "Okay okay , calm down and actually answer and tell me the whole situation so I can understand." I said rubbing her shoulders trying to calm her down and help the control of her breathing. "He broke up with me because he said an uptown girl like me would stop his focus of what's really important to him." After she said that I just pulled her into a hug.  There was nothing I could say or do to chop to make him change his mind. Sometimes when us uptown girls messed around with downtown niggas we either ended up pregnant and alone or just heartbroken. Even though Uptown people were way different from downtown niggas in New Orleans everyone still thought the same. The only things that were different between us were our house sizes. Uptown girls were known for giving it up fast especially when it came to Downtown niggas. Me on the other hand didn't have sex on my mind 24/7 and that was the difference between me and Toni. I searched threw my makeup bag for a couple of wipes and helped Toni clean herself up before leaving the girls restroom.

"You wanna know why they call me chop baby?" He asked some girl while she bit her lip nodding her head. "Because when I let this thing off yo body gone ring." They stood there a few more minutes communicating before chop and the girl exchanged numbers and she walked off. "Chop bro that shit was corny as hell and Toni gone kick yo ass if she find out." I said shaking my head. "Zay I dropped her ass anyway I don't give a fuck about what she know." "You gotta be the most dumbest muufucka I know." Ryan barged in. "She was holding a nigga back from what was important. I dont need her ass questioning me every five minutes wondering where I'm going , who I'm going with, when ima be back, shit just too much. "Never seen a nigga so sprung over a girl and drop her ass when she start caring more." Zay said. "You fucked up. I'll do anything to get a down ass girl like toni." Ryan said throwing his bag over his shoulder. "Anyway yall heard about ole girl party popping off in Uptown?" "Yeah ryan thats all everyone been talking about. We should slide through tonight see whats going down."Chop agreed.

"Bitch we going to Jessica party tonight and you not going to worry about chop or the bitch he with or none of that." I told Toni as I turned down the radio continuing to drive home. "Jackie I really don't want to go.  Let's just stay in tonight and watch movies please." Toni begged in a whining voice. But I wasn't hearing it I said we were going and I meant it. As I pulled up to my house I parked my car in the garage and we both walked through the back door. Throwing our bags on the floor as we entered my bedroom I went into my walk in closet taking everything off the racks and every shoe I could find and throwing it all on my bed. "Okay girl its 4:19 and we got until 9:00 to be ready and out." I said looking through everything tossing clothes back and fourth meanwhile she planted her head face first into a pillow not even listening to me. I shrugged it off and went into the bathroom removing my warm clothing.  Since it was the middle of February I had to find something warm to wear but kind of revealing. I turn on the shower water placing myself into the steaming shower. In the middle of my shower I heard my bathroom door opening.  I peeked around the curtain seeing Toni with her phone in her hand and chop's name popping up across the screen. "Bitch you better not!" I yelled trying to grip the phone but she quickly backed away from me reaching out. "But what if somethings wrong?  What if he needs me? What if-" "What if nothing he hasn't been there for you in a while. Why be there for him?" I asked grabbing my towel stepping out of the shower and motioning her to get in. Walking into my bedroom I let down my curly hair having my curly bangs fall over my face. I put on my brown lace up body suit and my ripped black jeans,  with my brown fringe boots and a mahogany cardigan. Spraying on perfume I waited texting on my phone until Toni was ready and heading out. Looking at the time as we got into the car it was only 8:10. "Jackie can we please stop by chops place before the party I really wanted to hear what he had to say." "I swear I give you the most reasonable and most understanding advice and you still want to talk to this nigga. But yeah we can stop past you got 20 minutes to hear whatever bullshit he gotta say then we out." "Alright.  It probably won't take that long anyway." Pulling up to chops mother house I seen a couple boys standing outside.  Most of which kept looking into my car trying to figure out who I was. "Bitch I change my mind yo ass got 5 minutes and make it quick. As soon as she got out I instantly locked every door in the car. I didn't want to admit it but I hated this side of town and was even scared to be in this part. Continuously looking at the clock 5 minutes turned in to 10 , 10 minutes turned into 15 which soon turned into 20. I was getting extremely impatient and was hesitant about getting out the car or not. Then an hour had passed by and it was already 9:11. I took the key out of the Ignition slamming my door forcefully and locking it afterwards. A couple boys yelled ayo ma as I walked up to the house knocking on the door repeatedly before a short darkskinned boy opened the door.  Noticing his tattoo on his left arm and a scar right above his eyebrow I knew exactly who he was. Ryan. "so yo ass just gone stare at me or you gone let me know what the hell you want?" Brushing past him I entered the smoke filled home walking into the back where the living room was I seen three other niggas and one that automatically caught my attention. He was at least 6'4 with Carmel brown skin, a low cut, and brown eyes. When he smiled I noticed he had bottom fronts and deep dimples but then his face dropped when he turned in my direction noticing me staring. "Um where's Toni?" I asked in a nervous but aggitated tone. Before anyone could answer I heard a loud thump and screams coming from upstairs without thinking twice I ran in the direction of toni's voice. "YOU A WHOLE BITCH YO GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME!" I barged in the room noticing Toni fully clothed from the waist down but nothing but bra on from the waist up. He had her pinned against the wall and without actually thinking about what was going on I immediately hopped on chop back sending blows to his head and Toni following up. I was pulled off of chop by one of his friends and so was Toni. "TONI YOU GONE REGRET THAT SHIT YO! YOU NEED ME!" "fuck you and all that bullshit you talking about yo. Me and my baby gone be good without you." Just then I turned to Toni who looked at chop who looked up at me and both of his friends turned their heads the other way trying to avoid seeing her shirtless. "Yo what?" Chop asked as he stood up trying to get Toni's attention but she grabbed away continuing to put on her shirt. I just stood their looking confused as ever. "Toni ? TONI?" he yelled once again but still no response. She continued to grab all of her belongings and grabbed my arm pulling me the house along with her.
