JC It's been a week since Jay's friends and my crew came to help with the renovations. During that whole week, we made progress. We separated into groups and accomplished alot. Jamie and Rio took some of my friends to help with the rebuilding. Kelly and Sierra got together and talk out the plans, Sierra ran into her ex which I just realize who it was. They didn't fight though, they went to work. Finally, Leo was with Jay and some other friends of mines helped with the delivery. It went smoothly.
Jay:(came to Jerza and smiles) we're making progress.
Jerza: that's good. Don't think I forgot you made a mess with the cookies on my bed. (Texting)
Jay:(backs up and laughs a little) I'm sorry about that.
Jerza:(shakes his head) how's the uniform going?
Jay: it..(gco)
??: Jerza Cruze. Wow, this is you now? (Came to them with some other dudes)
Jerza:(watched them and smiles) Lenny, Kingston, Jack and Paige. Wassup. (Daps them)
Lenny: we was hoping you wasn't in jail, until Leo texted us. (Daps him)
Kingston:(daps him) we wasn't sure if it was real or nah. Last time we check you was going jail.
Jay:(watched them then Jerza)
Jerza: you know my dad ain't want my face in the news.
Paige:(watched Jay)
Jack: so this is your punishment nice..you still doing your player ways?
Jerza: hell yeah! Can't deal with loyalty, it ends up the bitch cheating.
Jay:(watched them)*this the longest I've seen him smile*
Jack:(laughs) girls are fools if they believe you gonna fall for them.
Jay:(looks down)
Paige: Jerza who's the chick? Never seen her before. (Watched Jay)
Jerza:(watched Paige then Jay) *Oh damn I forgot* she's not from here, she moved here 5months ago.

All:(watched Jerza)
Jerza:(watched them) she's the one who came up with the renovating idea.
Lenny: Really? What about your fam??
Jerza: well...(rubs his neck)

Jack: she want the guap dude seriously. She's using you.
Jerza: chillax! Let me finish. Anyways, she living with us because her friends kicked her out, she's trying to prove to me that she can do it; be a good employee and all. She damaged herself just to impress me which is crazy and she is literally helping me become a good citizen.
Paige: wow. She smiles alot though.
Jerza: that's a next thing. Leo wanted her close by because she's like Janice.
All:(stays silent and looks down)
Lenny: that's what going on with her then.
Jerza: yeah plus she's not gonna listen to anyone bullshit. If she want to know something she'll ask herself.
Paige: oh.

Jay: you need employees to work with you right?
Jerza: I..(gco)
Jay: don't tell me no 'cause I know you need it! Anyways, your friends can work with you (smiles) you'll have alot of help with them. Since you guys seem very close.

Lenny: you could check but after this.
Jay:(smiles and hugs Jerza) thank you!!!
Jerza:(watched her)
Jay:(gets off) sorry.. (dust him off and ran off)
Paige: I don't think she wants your guap. What did you do to her?
Jerza: the other day I saved her from Snipe's crew.
All:...oh
Lenny: probably that's why.
Jerza: yeah either way, we need this place done so we can have a grand opening.
Paige: Imma go call Dean to see if he wants to help with the cooking.
Jerza: 'ight.

Leo:(sit down) so Jamie wanted to know what you wanted in the front.
Jamie:(watched her)

Jamie: ok cool. (Marks on the wall)
Jay:(smiles and walks off)

Leo:(watched Dean) you helping?
Paige: yup, me too.
Leo: ight.
Jay:(walks around)
JB It was getting there. Everyone here was smiling, it was nice to see positive attitude around here. It was nice but I didn't see Jerza. I looked for him and the back door was open.
Jay:(walks out and sees him) I can't believe you! (Hits the blunt out his hand)
Jerza:(watched her) are you serious?
Jay: cut it out!
Jerza: well how am I suppose to relax?!
Jay: Is there a quiet place we can go to?
Jerza:(eyes wide) wow, I didn't know you was down for that we co..(gco)
Jay:(hits him) not sex!!
Jerza:(rubs his arm) damn, I know a few come on. (Gets in the car)
Jay:(close her nose) you reek.
Jerza: chupzz (spray some cologne)
Jay:(gets in)
Jerza:(drives off)
Jay:(takes her phone and watched the list) ok...while we on the road, can we go shopping? (Watched him)
Jerza: no.
Jay:(puts her phone on her lap and watched him)
Jerza:(continues driving) what you want?
Jay: chicken, brocc..(gco)
Jerza: woah hold it, you making a list?
Jay: yeah I just..(gco)
Jerza: ok we'll do that later. (Stops the car) let's go
Jay:(gets out and looks around) an empty park?
Jerza:(gets out) where we going now. (Puts his hand in his pocket and watched her)
Jay: well ok. (Walks to the grass) come on.
Jerza:(follows her)
Jay:(sits next to a tree) sit.
Jerza:(sits down and watched her)
Jay: close your eyes now and take deep breaths, then exhale.
Jerza: you gonna leave.
Jay: I can't leave. I don't know this place and I...(looks down) don't want to be alone.
Jerza:(watched her)
Jay:(Shakes it off) come on do it! I'll do it with you. (Watched him)
Jerza: fine. (Close his eyes)
Jay: now think on why you chose this place and just listen.
JC I did what she told me to do. I inhaled then exhaled and I heard the trees moving, the swings making that squeaky noise, the pipes from the bathroom dripping, and the round-a-bout making that old rusty noise. I actually felt so relaxed. I felt her head on my shoulder and she hold my hand. Like she really doesn't want to be alone at all. Can't blame her, since my family made me feel like a mistake, the only family I actually had was Leo. He been there for me. He knows how I feel, how I move, we're that tight. Especially with Janice.
Jay:(checks the time and watched him)
Jerza:(smiles a little and lays down)
Jay:(smiles)*progress*
