Z for Zeke

Zeke's P.O.V

Aye wassup. I'm Z. Short for Zeke. I'm 19, 6'5, dark-skinned, curly high top fade. You know, Afro curly with my hair tapered around the bottom. The thot cut😏. Perfectly white teeth and braces, and I'm covered in tattoos. I was born here and have one older brother, and one younger brother. Well had on older brother. When I was 13, my older brother was shot in the middle of the head. I sat there and watch the bullet break through the front if his forehead and gush out the back of his skull. And from that day on, I found out who I was.

A killer.

I told myself I'll get revenge on the mother fucker who killed my big brother. So I became a cold blooded killer, hit man, a thug. Of course I had to make my money, selling drugs. I stay in school though, ain't nothing stopping me from that, plus the kids in school love weed.

Me- Hey lil mama.

Kai- Um excuse me?

Me- I said Hey lil mama

Kai- You talking to me??

Me- Girl yes. I'm making eye contact with you aren't I? Now what's your name beautiful?

She starts to walk away, damn her ass fat as hell. Shawty got back. So I follow her

Kai- It's Kai. And you?

Me- It's Z. Where you from? I never seen you around here before.

Kai- I'm from Detroit. And I just moved here today.

Me- Oh yeah? You like it so far?

Kai- Yeah, it's beautiful. I love it. Everything is going as planned.

Me- well is it cool if I get to know you a little more? I can show you around and shit.

Kai- Yeah sure. I don't mind.

We went to the food court to go sit down. She gave me her phone to put my number in it, and went to go order herself some food. I put my number in and I just started looking through her phone. I saw her with this guy. Almost all of her pictures were with him. Then I saw a picture with 2 boys in it and realized it was twins.

Kai- What are you doing??

Me- My bad, I was looking through your pictures.

Kai- Can I look through yours!?

Me- Hell nah!

Kai- Okay so don't go through my shit nigga!

Me- Damn ma, you look sexy as hell when you're mad.

Her phone starts to ring. It says twins.

Kai- Hey Mark, Charlie. Wassup?

Mark- You ain't never call back, we got worried.

Kai- My bad, I didn't even get settled in. They bought me a new car and gave me my credit card and told me to go buy some new clothes because school starts next week.

Charlie- Oh yeahhh. That's dope baby girl.

Baby girl? I wonder if that's her boyfriend.

Me- that's yo nigga?

Kai- Well how blunt are you?

Me- I'm just asking.

Mark- Who is that??

I get up and walk away. I'm not about to be fucking with a bitch and she got a whole ass nigga.

Kai- Yall imma have to call yall when I get home. Bye. Love yall.
*click*

She grabbed up all of her bags and ran up to me.

Kai- What's your problem?

Me- I'm not about to be fucking with a bitch who got a whole ass nigga.

She stopped dead in her tracks. Did I just call her a bitch? I really ain't mean to say that shit. But she wasted my time. She could have said she had a nigga from the start.

Kai- Bitch!? Oh so I'm a bitch now?  Bet it the fuck up. And that's not even my nigga, they're my bestfriends, fuck boy. But I don't need to explain my life story to no bitch ass nigga.

Bestfriends? Fuck my life, I fucked up this time.
She started to walk away. I'll just call her later.

Kai's P.O.V

Wow, I'm a bitch now. I walked to my car and put my bags in the back seat. When I got inside the car, I called the twins and connected them to my speaker so I  didn't have to hold the phone. I told them everything that happened today. It was a long day. I was exhausted.
I pulled up to the house, grabbed my bags and went straight to my room.

Mom- KAI, CAN YOU GET DOWN HERE PLEASE!?

Me- I'm coming!!!!

I run downstairs, the dining table was set. I don't know why she's doing all of this. We aren't going to be this big happy family that she keeps dreaming of. She can keep dreaming if that's the case.

Me- What's this?

Mom- Well we're going to eat as a family.

Me- We aren't a family.

Mom- Just sit down and eat with us Katara. I'm tired of your spoiled ass being disrespectful! He's doing all of this for you and you're still being a grown ass BRAT! Now sit the FUCK DOWN and eat with the FUCKING FAMILY!!!

I looked at her like she was crazy. Like um excuse me? So for me not to talk to her like a bitch on the street I just turned around and went to my room and slammed my door and locked it. She's acting so different. But im not tripping. School starts next week, they both work all day. I can chill.

I laid in my giant bed, thinking. I couldn't sleep. Then my phone rang and it was Z. I answered...

Z- Hey lil mama. I just wanted to apologize for calling you out your name. I just thought you were trying to play me. I didn't know he was your bestfr-

Me- Look, it's whatever. I'm not tripping.

Z- So can we start over?

Me- Yeah, we can do that.

Z- Alright man.

And we talked all night. He told me about his life and the shit he been through. How he treat his little brother like a prince. From what he's told me, he's actually a cool person. So I'll warm up to the kid.
