" YOU CHEATING YO". My little brother shouted as we played 21 at our neighborhood basketball court.
I smacked my teeth and took a step back away from the three point line to shoot. The ball made a swish sound as it went in all net making me cheese extra hard.
" I won boy now pay up". I said holding out my hand
He sighed and slapped a twenty into my palm before retrieving the ball from the ground and started to shoot around.
"Aye yo ma said to have her house cleaned by the time she get off work and it's already seven."
He sighed shooting his last shot before heading towards the front gate. I laughed and grabbed my water bottle and followed him out. I had to run to catch up with his long leg ass.
"Boy slow down, them chores ain't going nowhere." I teased
"Shut up midget."
Ignoring him I pulled put my phone and started checking my messages. I had three missed calls from my best friend so I decided to call him back. The phone rang three times before he answered it.
"Wassup meatball." I said excitedly
"Don't wassup meatball me, what your phone broke yo." He said annoyed
"Nah I been at the court all day with nuzzle." I laughed
"oh well tell yo lil boyfriend to stop blowing my phone up." He snapped
" what he blowing your phone up for."
" looking for you nigga, he thought you was with me."
" alright bro Imma call him." I said
He mumbled an okay before hanging up the phone.
I sighed and pulled the keys out my back pocket to unlock the front door. I made my way to the kitchen and grabbed some chips before going upstairs to my room.
I plopped down on my bed and pulled out my phone to FaceTime my boyfriend. It rang one time before he answered.
"Wassup yo." I said opening my chips
"Why haven't you been answering my calls dee." Dyson said annoyed
"I was busy." I rolled my eyes
"Come see me, im having a kick back tonight at my house." He smiled changing the subject
I cringed at the word babe, I hated pet names they were just so corny and irked my soul.
"I gotta ask my mom first." I mumbled
"You sixteen and you still asking asking your momma can you do shit." He scoffed
"Chill out." I laughed
"I need to see if key gonna go with me first." I continued
"Fuck you asking him for." He said angrily
"You know my mom not gonna let me go unless he come to so chill."
It was obvious that Dyson was jealous of key. He had this idea in his mind that me and key were messing around with each other. I've told him countless times that he has nothing to worry about and that me and key were just bestfriends
"What is he your bodygaurd or something." He snapped me out my thoughts
"Nah man look I ain't tryna argue right now real shit." I hung up the phone
