Moonlight In Atlanta

2. M.I.A

Julye

Today was a free day for me which I was thankful. My body was still sore and when I got up this morning I seen that I had got a big cut on my back, Candice and her little minions will get what's coming for them.

Once I was fully dress I made sure I looked decent before walking out the door. I made my way down to the Starbucks to see if Cykeem was working today.

As I walk in, I seen no sign of him but I did see the same guy that I always see.

"Good morning, is Keem in today"?

"Yeah he's in the back, I'll go get him for you".

"No that's alright, I don't want to bother him if he's working. But I would like a coffee cake and a ice coffee".

"Not the usual I see" Cykeem come walking from the back.

"Not feeling it today" I would tell Keem about what happen to me last night. Decide not to cause I hardly ever tell someone about my problems.

"Hold up something must be wrong then, tell big brother Keem all about it" I watch as Keem come from behind the counter to pull me in a tight hug.

He end up hitting that spot where I got that big scratch on my back. "It's nothing Keem, go back to work. I will be over there reading my book enjoying my coffee and cake".

"Wait, I want you to meet a homie of mines".

"Okay".

"You will laugh once I tell you his name".

"Bruh it's not funny" the guy said.

"I'm quite sure it's not that bad like mines".

"Oh trust and believe you two would make a great couple" Cykeem cheesed.

"Just tell me".

"Alright Julye meet August, I already told him about you so yeah".

"Nice, both of our names are after a month".

"Yeah so the two of you can name y'all child September" Cykeem was finding this funny which was kinda. August on the other hand didn't see nothing funny.

"I'm not about to play with you Keem, get to work" I push him away going over to sit down and relax my mind.

Cykeem

"Dude you stay playing" August tells me as we start fixing drinks, It was starting to get pack.

"Chill Aug nothing serious, my girl Julye is a cool girl. As you see she's always have a smile on her face".

"I noticed, what's up with that? I have never seen someone that happy".

"That's Julye" I glance over at her to see she was up in her phone.

"Aye I'm about to go on break" August said pulling off his apron leaving from behind the counter.

"Bring me back a Subway sandwich" I said.

I continue to work and luckily it was going back to slow pace, which was good cause I'm tired.

Julye

I seen that August had left out, I took the opportunity to go after him. Since Keem was acting like he busy, I left out Starbucks looking for August.

"August wait" I caught up with him and we start walking together.

"What's up" he said.

I don't really know what to say, I figure maybe he would be cool like Cykeem.

"Mind if I walk with you to wherever".

"I don't care, I'm heading to Subway to get something eat before getting off my break".

We made it to Subway and it was full line of people. "I know this great spot to get something to eat".

"Like what".

"Hardee's" he look towards back at Subway then towards me.

"Ight let's go".

This should go well.

August

Julye seem cool but talk too much. She hasn't stop talking once we got to Hardee's.

"Tell me about you August, if you don't mind" she said smiling at me. That's another thing, she stay smiling like a crazy person.

"There's nothing much about me, what about you. You seem like you have a great life".

Apparently her smile drop a little once I said that. "I guess I smile alot to keep from hurting".

Now this was getting interesting, wonder what is it she got going on in her life.

Our food was ready, I grab my bag as she got hers. We walk back to the coffee shop to see Cykeem standing in front of the door.

This dude here.

"What happen to Subway, took y'all a long time coming back. I see Hardee's instead of my sandwich".

"Subway was pack so we went to Hardee's, I got your greedy ass something" I sat the bag on the table pulling out his food.

"That's what I'm talking about, let me go wash my hands" Cykeem left to go to the restroom.

"I wonder about him half of the times" Julye chuckle a little.

"It was nice meeting you August, tell Keem I'll talk to him later".

"Nice meeting you to and okay" I watch as she left out. I don't know what it is about her but I can tell she's holding in some things she need to let out.

I grab my food and start eating, my break been over but I still was going to eat before heading back to work.
