I got released from the hospital a couple days later and I just been layin on my couch lookin miserable as fuck. sittin around ain't my thing, I like to move around and as much as I appreciate jamere and Jacari, I just feel like I should be able to handle my own business. But I can't right now, so they got it for me. I heard a knock at the door and I sighed. I lifted myself up and grabbed the crutches I had and went over to the door. "Who is it" I asked and they stayed quiet. I smacked my lips and opened the door and I seen Chris. A smile came upon my face and he laughed. "Whaaaaat" I held out and he laughed. "What's up my man" he said and I dapped him up as I kept the smile on my face. "Shit" I said. "Wassup Ashlon" I said. "What's the deal Seaton" she said. "What y'all doing here" I asked as I moved back so they could walk in. "Came to see my boy" he said. They followed me to the living room and I moved the crutches and lowered myself down on the couch and they sat down too. "Long time no fuckin see" I said. "Word." He said. "How you doin" I asked. "I'm Ight. I just started this lil restaurant business back home in cali, that's holdin up real well" he said and I smirked and nodded. "That's wassup man." I said. "How you been though bro" he asked. "Man" I said as I shook my head. His face went soft and he nodded. "Soon as I heard the news man I ain't even believe it. Caught the first flight to cali and seen it wit my own eyes and I automatically told myself I shoulda never even let you move back here. But I had some business to handle so I had to head back home inplus the feeling of me bein here wasn't right. I came here to tell you to just, move back to cali bro." He said as we held eye contact. Jessica and the kid can move back too. It just ain't safe here nomore. These young niggas heads is fucked up, they out here pulling triggers just cause they bored. I heard two weeks ago Spud got killed by Joe and Joe only 18, spud 40 you heard. The Jakes out here Killin young and old black men just cause they got a badge and a gun. You was down when this shit was on the news but up in springfield they killed a group of black teenage boys just cause they was walkin down the street, according to them muhfuckas they was lookin suspicious. It's just too much goin on man, I refuse to let that be you. It's so much hate here man, I'm telling you. That's one of the reasons why I had to get up outta here. I was too young for my wife to be buryin me. When you got shit to lose man you move a lot different." He said. Ashlon grabbed his hand and I looked away and nodded. I scratched the side of my head and thought about it. I was doin good in cali and it's more money there. But it ain't even just about the money, it's for my own well being. My son got killed out here you know what I mean, I got another son on the way. And these bullets don't got no name, they don't give a fuck who they hit obviously cause koby not here. Chris was right, maybe I did needa move me and Jessica back. It's for the better. And when I go this time, I'm stayin. Ain't shit here for me and I learned that the hard way. "Ima do it" I said in a low voice. I looked at him and he nodded. "We just want you to be safe Seaton." Ashlon said. I nodded and Chris did too. "That's all" he said in a low voice. "Got you" I said. I put my head back and stared at the ceiling. I ain't know how the fuck I was gone break the news to everybody but I was gone have to do somethin quick, because next week we out.
