After leaving my bestfriend house, i knew i had to go back home to James. I was not in the mood to talk so when i got home i went straight to the bathroom and took a Shower. It was the best shower i've had in ages. I felt like i have just washed away all my demons and all the dirt and hatred that was with me today. Then it hit me. I need to go back to my old ways.
" Hi..." I whispered staring at james.
" Oh so now you want to talk to me."
" Yeah because i need to tell you something."
"What!?" James started to yell.
" I want back in the game." I couldn't believe i had just said that. " Im going to talk to Buba tomorrow and see if he can have me back on these streets selling again." James just sat there staring at me, then he finally said something.
" Why are you doing this Mae? is it because of me? because i'm not working. Baby im tryin. I'm going to get a job in a couple days i promise you." His eyes started to water up. But i was not in the mood to hear his bull shit.
"James i don't want your money no more. When you get this 'job' you say you are going to get take all the money and get an apartment. okay? Because i'm moving out of here soon and gone to find a new apartment for myself. i'm starting my life over. if you want to be friends we can but if you dont want to be in my Life anymore then fuck it. i don't need this anymore." I never felt so much better in my life.
Of Course james didn't have shit to say and he just sat there and stared at me. i went to my side of the bed and layed down turning off the lights. i was knocked out within five minutes.
(Next morning) I woke up getting ready for my day. All morning i was wondering how i was going to be able to ask Buba go let me sell again. I called Alexxus.
"Hello?"
"Aye girl do buba got to work today?"
" No he off for today. why whats up?"
" I need back in selling and i want to talk to him"
" Alright stop by at like 1 than. He Should be ready by than."
" Iight. Bye." I Hung up.
I Got dressed in some cute classy ass clothes. Some high waisted blue jeans with strips of white in them. A Loose white see thru blouse and i wore gold accessories and heels. My Hair was Slicked back into a side doughnut bun with some gold hoops. Damn i haven't looked this good in forever. As I was just about to leave james walked in from the back porch giving me a smile. He then looked at how i was dressed and tried to come over to me kissing all down my neck. I pushed him back. He took the hint that i was not in the mood to be botherd and walked away.
When i got in my car and started it up it sounded like it needed a tune up. Which means i Need some money. I Rushed over to Alexxus House and by time i got there it was 1:10. I Walked inside and seen Buba.
" Aye wassup Shawdy? how you been" He said in his down south accent.
" Good Buba. But there is some things i need to talk to you about." i Said in my serious voice.
" Alright... talk." He took a sip of his drink. Looked like it was some straight henny with ice.
" Me and james are on the edge right now and he aint making no income so i need to start being back on these streets selling dope."
" Alright." He Took another sip. " But here is what needs to happen, i need 2000 a week and the rest money is yours. I'm gonna start you off with a little amount and the better you get, the more dope i give you and the more money i need. You need to watch out for the north side because thats where johnny stay posted with his boys. You know where to find me when shit pop off. Now come on." He lead me down in the basement. " Here." He gave me a brick of weed with a scale and bag. I already knew how to work a scale. he Then handed me a pound of coke. I Ain't never sold coke before.
" Im Selling This to?" Looking at him wide eyed.
"Yeah, this is what you will be maken most of your money off. Most people buy it from the east side." He was serious. " Here He Said Handing me a gun."
I didn't know how to act so i jumped back looking at him. " I don't know how to shot Buba."
" You dont need to know how to shoot. You just need to know how to scare the fuck out of someone with one." He Laughed.
" Alright... put it on safety." i Gave it back to him. watched him turn safety and put it in my bag.
" Ima have my man Malik show you the spots and he gone be with you when needed in the day. oh and here go your first pay." He handed me $3,000.
I agreed with him thinking about whether i know this Malik or not. He Told me to meet Malik on Tracy st Next to the strip mall.
I got in my car and drove.
