THE BLOCK (Urban Story)

A/N - chapter is super important

2 weeks later 

Dejah kissed Kells on the lips quickly before grabbing her bag and hopping out

"Hold on yall" he yelled through the window

He took 80 dollars out of his pocket, passing Shai and Dejah 40 each "here, just in case y'all get hungry"

They laughed "we're seniors in college dad, not highschool" Shai said

They took the money anyways, knowing how he was "have a good day !!" He yelled as they walked towards the building

They were slightly embarrassed but waved anyways

He sat in the car in deep thought, his sister was really on her way to getting that bachelors degree. Damn, time flew.

...

Chubs walked in to his Afro American studies class sitting in the farthest row back

The professor took attendance before introducing himself and beginning notes

Chubs was actually digging the vibe and feeling of college, he liked knowing he was doing something to better his future.

The professor turned to a new slide before he could finish jotting down the last one

He knew it'd be online so he tried not to stress it

"You don't have to write this slide down, it's the first assignment for the term... A project. I have made partners... I will give you a certain time period and you will present a presentation on what was happening for African Americans at that time"

Class slowly came to an end. His partner was a flamboyant younger black boy named Marcus.

They swapped numbers and emails before class ended

...

Students filled mr.Turner's class, English

Shai was already tired, D was too

They both couldn't sleep the night before

D checked her phone as a text from Kells popped up: "hope your having a wonderful day I love you"

2 seats down another group of girls sat down, Shai quickly recognized the girl from the fair "Diamond"

Diamond waved hey

Shai waved back "how you doing ?"

Diamond rolled her eyes "tired as ever girl"

"Same, we should link sometimes"

Before class Dejah, Shai , and Diamond was laughing it up.. Shai even swapped numbers with her
...

Diamond and Ariana walked through the red hallways making their way to the back of the strip club.

Ariana didn't strip but she always came to the back so it was nothing unusual.

"Ahh ! It's burning" diamond said rolling her eyes

Ari just rolled her eyes back as she curled the last curl and put in place "bitch that ain't nothing but the steam"

Diamond looked in the mirror, she really was looking fine though.

She put on her blue outfit that barely covered anything and her black heels before walking out on stage dancing to Juicy J.

Ariana grabbed her phone the minute she walked out searching for the newly stored numbers and finding dejah's digits.

She opened her phone before placing the number in the box and sending the picture of her in bed with Kells back as he slept "while your in school this is what your nigga does lol babygirl"
...

Frizz watched Diamond dance under the lights before walking over and dancing on his lap, he sipped on a cup of vodka

"I haven't seen you in a week shawty, I been missing that thang" he said refereeing to her kitty

She laughed "oh yeah?"

He nodded "so what about that V.I.P room Huh?"

She whispered in his ear before walking away and returning with the keys.

He knew it was wrong but for him, the pussy felt so right and Shai wasn't giving him nothing right now... What she won't do, someone will

Soon as they walked in the room it was another fuck session like the week before.

...

Dejah and Kells sat on the couch as they heard the door slam while Shai left, she was going over frizz's house for the night.

Dejah was doing homework. Kells was smacking on Cheetos.

"I missed you so much today baby" he said watching her

She was so beautiful to him no matter what she was doing , studying, sleeping, watching tv, cooking, it didn't matter to him.

She closed her binder letting out a relief sigh "I missed you too baby, what did you do ?" she said before pecking him quickly on the lips

He smirked at her "nothing, made money and went and got some food then I came back, showered and waited to go get y'all"

Before she could reply her phone buzzed on the table. She grabbed it figuring it was Shai before opening the unknown numbers text

She jumped up "Forreal Kells? Forreal ! I just asked you what the fuck you did today two seconds ago and you gon lie to my face ?! On some real shit?!"

His faced scrunched up in confusion "what you talking about Dejah ?!"

She shook her head " I knew it! I knew a nigga like you was to good to be true! I knew you weren't shit ! Fuck you"

He stood up "what the fuck are you talking about ?!"

She sighed of frustration and anger "okay so let's play dumb, why you in a bitches bed ?!"

He looked at the picture and then back at her " you were so caught up into trying to prove Ima ain't shit nigga, you didn't even realize that I still had my hair in this picture... How could this be today when I got a fade ? But at least I know what you really think of me now" he shook his head walking out of the living room and into his room, locking the door

Dejah knew she had went about shit wrong, she sat on the couch wanting to cry before turning on the TV.

An expression of shock came over her as she gasped.

"20 year old Chris Dirks was found dead today in his car outside of his job in the parking lot. It is said this is a homicide but there is yet to be any evidence or witness to come forward. It is also said Chris was a well known young man who was everybody's friend. If anybody knows anything please contact local police."
