"Yknow yah baby got da sight?" My mama smiled. "It scares her a little but she thinks it normal."

"Bri was right." I mumbled.

"August yah gotta go ta yah family and stop hidden."

"I'm not hidden."

"Yea yah said dat bout dat boy dat bullied yo ass everyday when after school."

"Dat different."

"How so?" She raised an eyebrow curious. Waiting for my response she starred at me patiently. "I'm waitin'."

"Yknow you dead and ain't nothin' changed?" I laughed.

"And it's not. Stop hidden and get back to my beybehs." She kissed my forehead. "I love you beybeh boy."

"Love you too mama." I looked up to her disappearing.

>>>>

"Tired of hidden." I mumbled to myself. "I never ran and damn sho ain't bout to pick today ta start."

"What you doin'? Peep talkin' yah self."

"Boy yo ass bout got lit up." Lowing my gun, I tucked it back in my pants.

"Calm yo ass down." Ant laughed. "You good?"

"Yea I'm straight, ready ta' get dis shit ova' wit."

"Agreed." He nodded.

Walkin' ova ta one of da windows in da room, I looked out of it as silence filled da room.

"Mane ain't shit changed." A nigga chuckled breaking da silence.

"Hell naw." Ant laughed. "Why it always us left?"

"Cause da real man always be da last ones standin'."

"Yea like yah manly ass left me in the third grade? Sure." He chuckled.

"Aye dat damn dog wasn't bout ta demolish my lil'ass." I spoke honestly.

"So nigga yah leave me without sayin' shit?" Ant laughed.

"Hell yah."

"I knew I shoulda stop fuckin' wit yo ass back then." Ant shook his head.

"But look at you now two whole decades later." I laughed.

"You right. You right." He agreed, getting quite. "I'm still mad though."

All a nigga could do was laugh and listen to him bitch.

"Left my ass, I turned around to ask yo ass somethin', all I saw was yah damn dust print." Ant posted as if he was running.

"But bitch did yah die tho?" A nigga was cracking up

"Bitch I almost!!" He threw his hands up.

"Shut up. Shut yo bitch ass up." I waved him off.

>>>>

"Yea baby imma grab it."

"Okay I love you, be safe."

"Love you to mamas." I hung up da phone with Bri.

"Sayin' yah last goodbye to yah wifey smart."

I didn't even have to look up, knowing who it was. Putting my phone on da ground and my piece beside it, I chuckled looking up from underneath my hat.

"Sadly yah didn't get ta say da same ta yah brotha." I smirked. "And you won't be able to, ta yah mama."

"Yknow you a brava nigga? Lookin' death in the face and talkin' shit." Ke' laughed.

"And yknow wad nigga it hurts my soul ta know death, you," I pointed at him, "is a ugly muthafucka'."

"Fuck yo-" A bullet going clean threw his forehead cut him off.

"Bye bye" I smiled, waving as he looked dead at me before hitting da floor.

Ant came out of his position, emptying da clip on him.

"Damn nigga yah couldn't at least let dat nigga finish his sentence."

"Bitch shut up." He chuckled.

"All I got was ah 'fuck yo-'" I acted as if I was bout to hit da ground.

"Nigga getchu gotdamn." Ant chuckled.
