Rayvn
"Now I see why you not picking up any weight, you don't got nothing in here to eat".
"Mom can you please get out my refrigerator, I'm going grocery shopping right after I leave work".
"You better before I do".
I was now in my own place away from Drako. He been calling me back to back trying to figure out where I ran off to but I'll be getting my number change.
My mom came by to see my place which she was proud of me. I wasn't fully settle in yet like I should be since I still had to get a few things for my place.
"This is a nice place Rayvn, I'm so proud of you like foreal".
"Thanks mom I'm proud of myself as well, let me get ready for work and we can leave out together. Finish taking a look around" I went towards the back to get dress then head to work.
"What is this? I never seen this before" my mom ask which made me come back in the front to see she was holding a box that was decorated with red roses and a date on it.
"Oh this is nothing" I got it from her before she could open it. I went back in my room to place it in my closet.

"Are you sure you wanna get this done"?
"Yeah Ray I'm ready, I promise I won't chicken out this time".
"Ight Bri don't give me a hard time now".
As I was getting the needle ready I could already tell that Bri was going to back out. I have done a couple of her family members tattoos and she would always tell me that she wanted to get one but knowing Bri she's afraid of needles.
By the time I was about to place the needle to her arm she slid out the chair as she passed out.
It wasn't funny but I couldn't help but to laugh right along with everyone else that was in there. Once she woke up I told her to not even bother to get one at all.
I start cleaning around my area about to go on break when two guys came in walking over to my area.
"Think you can squeeze me and my bro in real quick"? the brown skin guy ask. I couldn't believe that Elijah was here and on top of that he was getting a tattoo.
The son of a preacher?
"Yeah I can get you guys done, so what is that you want"? I start sketching out what the brown skin dude which I found out his name is Sean wanted.
It didn't take long for me to do his. Then I start working on Elijah tattoo, he wanted a rose on the right side of his stomach.
"I wouldn't never known you had a lot of ink on you" I say as I start putting the color in.
All he did was chuckle a little while being glued to the phone.
"Surprised huh? I bet you was saying in your head what the pk doing getting a tattoo" he tried to mock my voice and failed causing me to playfully roll my eyes.
"I guess you can say that but I'm not judging, I feel that tattoos tell a story you know".
"I feel you, each one I have tells a story" all I did was nod my head. I was now finish with his ink and held the mirror so he could see what I have done.
"Yo this is dope thanks for this".
"You're welcome glad you like it and thank you for not giving me a hard time" I glared at Sean who only turn his nose up at me.
"I wasn't even giving you a hard time, I couldn't help that I had to sneeze every ten minutes".
"Yeah whatever you say".
Once they left I was now about to head out so I could do some food shopping and then go home.
Elijah
"I don't know if you paid attention but she was checking you out as she was doing your tattoo".
"What nah, how she was checking me out if she was focusing on working" I look at Sean like he was crazy. Even if she was then oh well I really wasn't paying attention, I was all up in my phone.
"Yeah ight play dumb if you want to man. If I didn't know any better I would say that the two of you have something in common".
"Like what"?
"Shit I don't know probably tattoos cause she got alot of them. I wouldn't be surprised if y'all end up hooking up" he mumble the last part which I heard but ignore it.
I've been texting Erika trying to see where she was at but unfortunately she hasn't got back with me.
"Say before you drop me off back at the crib can you run me by the store real quick"?
"I hope you got gas money why you got me driving you all around the world".
"Man you know I got you EJ".
"Yeah ight".
While I was driving and talking some more with Sean, Erika come texting me saying she was with her mom taking care of business. I didn't even bother to text her back, eventually I deal with her when I have time.
😥 I know it may seem slow and boring but the drama is slowly coming just sit tight.
