The Aftermath

1🥀

April 1996:
Justine

'Awh...Pac you know you didn't have to do this' I said as I sat on the edge of his bed tapping my fingers against the sheets

'Don't say that Justine' he said softly 'I need to help out my best-friend' he smiled

As you can see, me and DeVante have broken of our engagement and Tupac thought it would be a good idea for me to stay round his for a few nights until I can get myself together. I was going to stay round Mary's but I'm not gonna sit through Mary and K-Ci's on and off drama, Tupac and Biggie don't talk no more and I feel like if I crash there with Faith and him, I feel like I'm betraying Pac, Jennifer is of doing her own things, going in and out the country as she starting her music career along side acting and Cliff (Method Man) it would be weird to crash with him because I haven't spoken to him since my Birthday.

'You help me too damn much....you need to look after yourself too' I laughed a bit

'When I see all my peoples happy and shit, that's when I help myself' he said proudly going of heading towards the stairs

'Where you going?' I asked getting up from the bed, following him

'I need to head of to the studio for a bit' he said 'you wanna come with?'

'I'm not sure...I don't wanna distract you or any of the overs if like y'all are really busy' I said with a tone of uncertainty

'Girl I don't want you here by yourself, worrying about shit when no ones here to comfort you' he said walking up to me a little

'...alright...' I finally gave in '....but I wanna change first'

'Why?' He asked confused tilting his head a little 'What you've got on in perfectly fine'

'Yeah but I wanna be comfortable' I whined childishly

'Isn't what you've got on comfortable enough?' He asked again

'Why you gotta have to ask me some many questions?' I squinted both my eyes

'Do what you gotta do...but don't be long or I'm leaving yo' ass' he said walking off

I can't believe this nigga already! Wasn't he just being real cute and nice to me a couple of minutes ago and now his ass wanna switch up on me and start giving me attitude.

........

'Yo, Yo, Yo if it ain't Tupac with this fine young single chocolate sister, Justine' Kadafi said as he took drags from his blunt

This motherfucker is probably high right now.

'Boy....just because I'm single doesn't mean I'm gonna be hoeing about like dem nasty ass hoes y'all be running after' I Shot back later laughing

'Not even a hello, or how you doing?' Kadafi said offended 'you just straight up dissing a brother'

'Uh excuse me' I said in a pitch tone raising my hand against my chest 'weren't you the one that was just labelling me?'

'Ight...Ight you got me there' he laughed going back to smoking his blunt 'You cool Pac?'

'I've been cooler than a motherfucker' he laughed and I looked at him with a little smile

'That's only because he with Justine' Snoop blurted out as Tupac's eyes went wide and I laughed at his reaction

'Boy Why you so quiet now, you were just so happy when you were talking to me about-'

'Alright now we gotta work on some tracks then' Pac interrupted Snoop as he nervously laughed

Reading Tupac's facially expression, he looks like he don't want to be here which made me laugh a little. The way his eyes went wide and his ass kept quiet when Snoop was gonna spill some tea, but his boring ass had to kill the vibe. I wonder is he's hiding something or maybe there's something he doesn't want to tell me as yet?

.....

I watched Tupac's bald headed as bobbing to a track that he just laid down. Motherfucker looked so proud in the the work he was doing. I can't blame him though because he's worked his sweat, tears and soul of this track. I found myself bobbing my head to the beat as I started enjoying the song.

I was so busy enjoying the song that I didn't even realise his gaze was on me as he watched me making a fool of myself, but it was normal because I didn't feel embarrassed.

'You like this?' Pac smiled as he turned down the song a bit

'Yeah, this shit is banging' I complemented him 'what's this song called?'

'Against all odds' he spoke out proudly

I swear all I could do was just sit there and stare at him, still continuing to smile like the idiot I am. I don't know what it was but when he's proud of something that he did, it just makes me me happy to see him happy.

'Why you still smiling at me like that?' Pac asked snapping me out of my thoughts

'Smiling like you like what?' I asked playing dumb

'Girl you know you what you're doing' he laughed

Damn!

.....

'You wanna go and grab some food after this?' He asked as I was getting comfortable on the sofa nearly falling asleep

'Yeah...I don't mind' I said yawning a bit 'where you wanna go?'

'I dunno....what about that Spanish restaurant a couple of minutes away from home' he suggested

'Wait the fast food shop with Tacos and all that?' I asked beginning to become more fascinated

'I think that's it' he said unsure

'Boy How you ain't know of the fast food shop that is a couple of minutes near you?' I asked thinking he don't have any common sense

'Justine you know I'm busy and I ain't got time to be knowing every single fast food shop in California' he said back

'Well you certainly remember every hoe's name you mashed in California' I muttered under my breath

'Watchu say?' He made me jump as he furrowed his brows

'Er....nothing....can we go and get something to eat....I'm like really hungry' I said ignoring the comment I made

'Hmm....Ight' He said back but still looked convinced trying to figure out what I probably said to him
