Chapter one: Tired of the Hood

******Hey my readers!!! I just thought I would let y'all know this is my very first book I'm writing on wattpadd. My first few chapters might be short but I promise they will get better. **

Akevia's POV (28 years old)

I was sleeping peacefully in bed, wrapped in my boyfriends' arms until I heard the phone ringing. "Damn".

I wiggled out of Lupe's arms, slid on my pink cheetah print slippers, and headed to the living room to answer the phone.

All the lights were off and it was pitch black. I was feeling around for the light switch. I took a step and tripped up on the corner of my rug, and as I was falling my face met the arm of my sofa. I laid in fetal position on the floor holding my head, wincing in pain.

"Shit!! Whoever this is calling this damn early in the morning bout to get cursed the hell out!!"

"Hello!!"

Hey girl!! what you doing??

(I took the phone from my ear and stared at it like no the fuck this bitch ain't called me at no fucking 6 o'clock in the morning asking me what am I doing!!!!!)

"Bitch what the fuck do you think I'm doing?!?! I got to go to work in a few hours!! I'm tryna get some damn sleep THOT!! Now why the fuck are you calling me Ciara?!

Daaamn, you ain't gotta yell at me like that!! I thought I was yo best friend.

"Well you thought wrong hoe. Now what the hell do you want?"

Why are you acting so mean towards me. I ain't did nothing to yo bipolar ass!!

"Do you really want me to answer that?!"

As a matter of fact I do!

"Well first of all you called me at six in the morning. And second of all, on my way to answer the phone I fell and hit my head. And last but not least, I got a job to go to in a few hours. Unlike yo jobless/homeless ass I got bills to pay and a kid to provide for. That's why I'm being mean towards you!!!"

Well I'm sorry bestie. I didn't mean for you to hit your head.

-_- (this bitch has missed the entire point I was trying to make)

Ughh!! "it's ok Ciara, just don't call the house before 11 o'clock. Now why were you calling anyways?"

O girl let me tell you!! Latrell & Tiesha is throwing this party at club Infiniti tonight and couples get in for free!!

"Aww shit Tiesha is my sister from another mister. Me and her go way back. She was my bodyguard in kindergarten when the big kids used to pick on me. After I get off work me and Lupe might swing by there and chill with you and Tynarrion for a couple hours."

Aight girl. I'll talk to you later. And kiss my goddaughter for me and tell her I love her!!!

"Ok bye girl."

I hung up the phone and made my way back to bed making sure not to trip up on that damn rug.

Lupe was snoring with his mouth wide open. I didn't want to hear all that noise so I stuffed a sock in his mouth. I kissed his forehead and got comfortable then went back to sleep.

Lupe's POV (29 years old)

I felt somebody tapping my head. I opened my eyes and my baby girl Starla was mean mugging me.

"What's wrong Star?"

"You and mommy over slept and now I'm going to be late for school."

I checked my phone and she was right. I woke Akevia up and told her we overslept. She jumped up getting her work shit together. And getting Starla ready for school.

I laid in bed watching them rush, waiting for them to leave. So I could go to work.

Akevia is a pediatrician. Every since we were in high school she would always talk about how much she loved children. She would always tell me she was gonna get her dream job and be a pediatrician. And she did. She accomplished her goal. Me and her started dating in middle school and we never broke up. One day I swear I'm gonna marry that girl. She's the only woman I love and will ever love.

We have a beautiful seven year old name Starla Imani Williams. I love that little girl so much. I don't think I would be able to live life without her. She is the reason I breathe. She's really smart to. She's the top in her class. And she has a smart ass mouth just like her mother. Everytime I turn her down when she asks for something she gives me those puppy dog eyes and try to make me feel bad. So I end up giving in.

I have a job as well but my family doesn't know where I work. And I plan on keeping it that way for as long as I can.

I locked the door as they left in my Camaro. I went upstairs to my bedroom and found me a outfit for the day. I pulled out a pair of jeans, red polo shirt, and a pair of my red, black, and white Jordan's. I looked on the dresser and found a matching SnapBack. Got in the shower and did my normal bathroom routine.

*******12:00 p.m************

I grabbed my keys off the night stand and headed to my black 2014 BMW. I hopped inside and called all the boys to meet me at the warehouse so we can chill, drink, count money, and play some cards.

I pulled up to the trap and walked inside to the back room. I dapped all my crew members. My right hand man was Ricky. He was the brains of the crew. Whenever we were in a tough situation he always had a plan to bring us out of it.

My left hand man was Tynarrion. He was the mover of the group. Whenever we had new connects he would be the person to make the trades. There were a lot of members apart of my crew. We called ourselves the Blood Angels. B.A boys for short. My main friends of the crew are Tynarrion, Tyrus, Chris, Ricky, and Kyle.

*********************

I was getting pissed the fuck off. Ricky was kicking my ass in spades. Shit I'm the type of nigga that doesn't take losing very well. When I lose my mood affects everybody around me. I be cursing people out for no reason, throwing shit, and just acting a damn fool. Call me a sore loser, hell I know I'm one. Shit I'm tired of these hood niggas. Shit I'm tired of the hood all together!! I want to go on vacation or sum. Shit, to get away for a lil while. Just me,my future wifey, and my daughter.
