"Wassup Amir" I said standing there with my hand in my hoodie pocket holding my gun. I coulda shot his fucking head off right then & there. Amir was or used to be my fucking right hand. & being such we had fucked alotta tha same bitches before. We had even fucked them at tha same time. We tagged team alotta shit out here at one point in time. But when I got with Tash I calmed all that shit down. & he knew I loved her cus I told him that all tha time. But that was my bad for bragging about how good her pussy was to him. How good of a woman she was to & for me. Or so I thought. I just thought he'd have enough respect for me to not wanna see himself. That's bro code. & Tash, I coulda spit in this trifling bitch face. She crossed all types of lines. But I knew something was up. Jus like tha night I came home from work. Bitch hate being cold & she had tha window wide open on tha coldest day of tha year. Who she thought she was fooling? & when I fell asleep I thought I heard her talking to somebody in tha house but I swore I was dreaming. I went through her phone while she was sleep days later but found nothing. I knew I wasn't as crazy as I was starting to seem. That's why I used tha find my iPhone jawn to see where she was when she wasn't answering my calls. & it led me to my right hand man house. Ain't that some shit?
"Nigga fuck you mean "wassup"? That's what I wanna know.. why you out here leaning on my car, posted like a PPA nigga" Amir laughed in my face. He was wreckless, a savage just like I was so I knew how this could turn out. Before I could answer back, Tash walked up looking like she had seen a ghost. "Quan wyd here?" she asked me sounding all dumbfounded. "Bitch tha question is, what you doing here?!" I snapped at her. "As a matter of fact idek wanna know. Jus come get ya shit out my crib!" I snapped as I walked off to my car without giving her a chance to say shit. "Amir imma holla at chu later my nigga!" I said as I got in my wheel. "Yeah I know!" Amir said sarcastically as I pulled off. Speeding to my house idk if I was mad or happy. I was mad at tha fact that I got played. But I was happy cus I found out & now I could go on about my business. Not even paying attn , I was doing 80 in a 65. All I heard was sirens behind me as I came to a stop & I started sweating because I still had my gun in my hoodie pocket. I forgot to tuck tha shit when I got in tha car. Fuck. I came to a stop & was pressed for time before tha cop got out & walked to my car so I stayed in my seat & prayed to God he didn't ask me to get out. A black nigga, speeding in a tinted wheel with all black on, typical criminal stereotype. Surprisingly, tha cop was cool as shit. Just gave me a speeding ticket & told me to slow tha fck down. Whatever I ain't give a fuck I was just glad he ain't search me. & I was glad he was alone. Cops always cool when they alone. It's always tha ones with partners that wanna feel inferior & shit.
I got home & packed some of my own shit before Tash could get there. I knew if I was there at tha same time she was I woulda choked her tf out like Tommy did Holly. So to avoid having a homicide on my hands I grabbed some clothes & left. As I was pulling off I saw her car pulling up & I contemplated getting out to talk to her but decided against it & continued on to my destination.

"Bitxh this nigga was jus standing outside leaning on Amir car!" I told my Bestfriend as I drove to what was about to be my old home. I was hoping this nigga wasn't here I wasn't tryna rumble. I jus wanted to pack my shit & get tf outta there. When I walked inside it was quiet. He wasn't here. Good. I hurried up tha steps & bagged my shit any old kinda way & took tha most important stuff & put it in my car. I was irritated cus this was not how my day was supposed to be going. Like who told this creep ass nigga to stalk me? As I was finishing up,  Amir called me. "You cool? Wya?" He asked me sounding concerned. I told him I was just getting done packing my shit & he told me he had some business to take care of & that he would meet me at his house later, so I decided to go chill at my sister crib until then. I hadn't seen her or my niece & nephew in awhile so I decided to go check up on them to kill time.
When I got there, I called her to tell to open tha door but she ain't answer. I knew she was home because I saw her car. I got out & knocked on tha door still, no answer. I heard my niece & nephew running around inside so I knocked again & my nephew answered. "Heyyyy auntie Tash!" he said as he let me in & hugged me. "Hey big boy what y'all doing in here making all this noise. Where ya mom?" I asked as I took my coat off & looked around. I loved my sister but I hated her living conditions. Her house was always a mess. On top of tha kids toys being scattered throughout tha living room, trash lined tha floor from tha front door to tha dining room. It didn't help tht she had tan carpet cus it was filthy as fuck. Tha couches were black but you could see tha dirt embezzled in it. Pictures crooked on tha wall & tha 19 inch tv she had in tha living room sat on top of a ice cooler. I was so irritated. I never understood why she was content with living like this cus we never grew up like that. "She upstairs with my daddy" my nephew said smiling. I loved my nephew. He was so cute. Lightskin with curly hair & poppy eyes. His skin was so dirty it looked like he hadn't taken a bath in weeks. My niece walked over to me sucking her thumb. "Hey aunty baby" I said as I picked her up. She was dirty too & her pamper was damn near touching tha floor. I started to get annoyed. Putting my niece down, I walked up tha steps to find my sister. Her room door was closed but I could hear arguing coming from inside so I listened before I knocked. "Raheem I just told you I don't have $300 for you my fucking rent & shit is due! My kids need shit & you over here asking me for money instead of offering like what kinda shit is that!" I instantly rolled my eyes. Raheem was her bum ass boyfriend/babyfather that she had been with for years that used her. I couldn't stand him & he couldn't stand me & I ain't care. We argued everytime I saw him cus I spoke up for my sister so many times when she was scared to. I knocked on tha door & then opened it. It smelled like funky sex & cigarettes & I almost threw up. When my sister saw me her eyes lit up. "Tassshhhh!!!!" She screamed jumping up to hug me. I hugged her back as we began to talk. "Omg I'm so happy to see you I missed you where you been!?" She asked me. We were talking for about 5 minutes & Raheem was standing there bricking me. If looks could kill I woulda been dead. "Tf is you looking at me for? Can I help you?" I said to him rolling my eyes. I get irritated when ppl stare at me period. Esp ppl I don't like. "Bitch , this my house I stare at what tha fck I wanna stare at!" he said to me all hostile. I laughed. "From what I just heard before I walked in here ya broke ass ain't got no money to pay a bill in here so this being ya house sound a little far fetched!". My sister got wide eyed & his face balled up as he brushed past me to get out tha room door. "Fck you bitch!" he said as he stormed down tha steps & out tha front door.

"I couldn't believe that nigga had tha audacity to pop up at my crib & be leaning on my shit" I thought to myself as I dropped Tash off to her car. I kissed her & told her I would see her later. I went to get some weed & backwoods then I went back to my crib to take a shower. I rolled up & smoked before I got in tha shower & as I'm washing, I'm just thinking of how salty Quan musta felt that I had took his bitch. I ain't care tho. Quan was my boy & all but over tha years he had become a weirdo ass nigga & I ain't feel his ghost. Him jus popping up at my crib was a no no & then tha way he approached me had me heated. That nigga knew I had a temper. He shuda came to me man to man if he wanted to know if I was fucking his bitch & I woulda told him what it was. But fuck tht nigga. Talking bout he was gon holla at me later like that was supposed to be a threat. Knowing damn well he ain't catch as much wreck as I did. I laughed as I got outta tha shower & got dressed.
When I got back in my car I called to check on Tash & she told me she was going to her sisters until I got done what I had to do. I made my rounds collecting money from niggas that owed me, went to get some food & then decided to go see my family. I had a little brother & a little sister. Twins. They were 17. They lived on tha other side of town with my mom & I nvr saw them that much cus I nvr felt like driving over there but I wasn't doing shit so I said fuck it. It took me about a half hour-45 minutes to get to my mom crib & when I got there & got out, all tha lil neighborhood niggas greeted me. They loved me around there. I sat outside talkin to them before I walked in my mom house. I loved going there when I did go there. Her house always had a welcoming feeling. & being as tho I was her oldest son she always welcomed me. I walked in her kitchen where she was preparing dinner. "Omg look what tha wind blew in!" She said kissing me on tha cheek. To what honor do I owe seeing my handsome son" my mom said blushing. "I missed you mom" I said as I kissed her on tha cheek & sat down at tha table. We talked & caught up as she cooked dinner. She musta knew I was coming cus she was making my fav meal. Beef short ribs, baked mac & cheese, rice & biscuits. When she got done cooking my little brother came walking in tha house. "Wassup lil nigga" I said as he walked in tha kitchen. "Lil? I ain't Lil nomore" he said laughing & he really wasn't. He was almost taller than me. Had more facial hair than me too. Voice was deep as shit. Damn I felt old. "Yeah he ain't Lil nomore but if he have another one of them little girls in my house imma beat his ass like he is!" My mom said & I bust out laughing. I remembered those days back when I was 17. "Where Taylor?" I asked referring to my little sister. I wanted to see her before I left. "Who knows. Prolly somewhere with her boyfriend like she always is" my mom said sucking her teeth. "Boyfriend? What boyfriend?" I said through bites of my food jumping into big brother mode. My mom ignored me so I ain't press tha issue. I ain't care that she had a boyfriend. I rather her have one than to be a whore. My phone started ringing & it was Tash. I was assuming she was ready to go in tha house so I put my dishes in tha sink, said my goodbyes to my mom & made my way to tha front door dropping $500 on tha coffee table on tha way out. She hated when I did tht.
I got in my car was tryna mentally prepare myself for tha ride home. I was tired & I had tha itis. A car pulled up in front of my mom door & stopped. My windows tinted so you couldn't see in my car but I could see in his. Kissing Taylor before she got out, I became furious as I watched her go in tha house. This nigga Quan was fckn with my little sister!
