We got dress to make our way to Angie's house for my baby birthday party. Que and I got her so much stuff that we could barely fit it all in the car. I had got calls from a couple people tellin me happy birthday, but the one I wasnt expectin was from Dre. It really shocked me about Dre callin because we havent been talkin like that either.
Shawn: Hello
Dre: Wussup birthday boy?
Shawn: Whats goin on Dre?
Dre: S***t just callin to see what u got up for today?
Shawn: Im goin to Que baby moms house cuz u know today Kiya birthday too.
Dre: So it is true then huh, yall f***kin around?
Shawn: Why does that matter nigga?
Dre: Because its suppose to be us takin pictures, and s***t like that. U was always up under Courtney ass though, then where the f***k Que come from.
Shawn: Nigga u sick, and u wasnt on s***t serious thats why we was always fightin.(i laughed)
Dre: See thats that s***t I be talkin about, and thats the reason we aint together now.
Shawn: And never will be again.
Dre: Yea yea whatever lil nigga.
Shawn: I heard u got a baby on the way anyway.
Dre: Who told u that?
Shawn: Dont worry about it just know I know.
Dre: Well somebody lied to u.
Shawn: Yea ok, but im about to head out i'll talk to u later
Dre: Man whatever, but iight then have fun.
No sooner than I hung up the phone from him it started ringin again, it was my mama. I let the phone ring because I aint feel like dealin wit her bull, not today. When we finally got there it was hella people there. Angie's big brother Donny came out to help us bring in the presents. He was an older guy in his mid 30's, but I didnt really care for him. He was one of those real ghetto ass ignorant niggas that talk to much.
Donny: Whats good yall, happy birthday baby boy.(he said dappin me up)
Shawn: Thanks donny.
Donny: So what yall got up for today?
Shawn: After we leave here I dont know.
Donny: Aw ok, what about u Que what u got planned for ya boy. Yall tryna go to the strip club or something I can get yall in.
Me and Que exchanged a look tryin not to seem so awkward. Donny didnt know I was gay because he was kinda on the homophobic side of the field. This nigga was crazy as hell on top of being big as f***k, and it made him kinda intimidating. I would still bust his ass if he ever tried me though.
Que: Nah dawg we good. My mama prolly got something worked out already so we gone chill wit her later.
Donny: Aw ok well come on in, and fix a plate.
We made our way in the house being greeted by all the family, and Angie's mom. Everybody was out in the back yard dancing, and eatin. Angie saw us and came over to us givin us both hugs in the process. We all sung happy birthday to kiya, and then she opened all of her presents. I dont know why, but I kept feelin like Donny was watchin me. I've never really been around him this long before so I dont know how he normally act, but his ass is creepin me out. I went inside to get me another plate, but most of the food was damn near gone..black folks. Just when I was finishing up my plate I heard the screen door close from behind me. I turned around to see Donny giving me a wierd look as he stepped closer to me.
Donny: Shawn I got a question, and I want u to be honest wit me iight baby boy.
Shawn: Um...ok
Donny: Whats goin on between Que, and my lil sister. He dont really be around like he use to be no more.
Shawn: Well, they not together no more. They actually aint been together in a while, and she told me she datin this new dude.
Donny: Oh, she dont never tell me s***t. So wussup wit u, u got a girl?
Shawn: Yea im in a relationship.
Donny: Thats wussup.
Just when I started to feel like I was being backed into a corner Que walked in to save the day.
Que: Shawn whats takin u so long bo-uh bro
Donny: We just up in here talkin lil nigga get off his d***k.
Que: Chill out Donny.
Donny: So what yall got planned after graduation u know that s***t right around the corner?
Shawn: Well im goin off to college as far away as I can get from here.
Donny: Thats wussup, what about u Que?
Que: I was thinkin about signin up for the navy.
When he said that my head almost did 360 from me lookin at him so fast.
Shawn: WHAT!?(i yelled)
Donny: Nigga he said the navy what u yellin for?
Shawn: When the f***k did u decide this, and why am I just now hearin about it!?(i said still yellin)
Que: I was gone tell u I just didnt know how to.
He looked at me apologetic, but couldnt really express it because of our unwanted audience.
Donny: U aint gotta explain yo self to him nigga u a grown ass man.
Shawn: Donny u need to shut the f***k up!!
Donny: What lil nigga?
Que: Aye chill out dawg.(he said standin between me, and Donny)
Shawn: Que im ready to go my dad said he wanted me to go out to eat wit him later.(i lied tryna get the hell away from Donny)
Que: Iight just let me go say bye to everybody real quick.
He left to go back outside, but Donny stayed behind still watchin me. I dont know what it is, but this dude really makes my f***kin skin crawl. I had dropped my phone under the kitchen table tryna hurry up and finish my food. When I bent down to reach for it I felt Donny lift my shirt up.
Donny: Whats that on yo back?
Shawn: What the hell u doin!?
I jumped up snatchin away from him invadin my space like he was stupid, but his facial expression means he saw my tattoo. I had gotten Que's name in the arch of my back as a suprise to him, but I had forgot I had it until now. Just then Que came back inside the house.
Que: Shawn u ready to go...Whats wrong wit yall?
Donny: Why this nigga got a tramp stamp of yo name on his back, and s***t...Yall gay!?
There was a long silence as he gave us looks filled with disgust, and hate. I knew I aint like this mutha f***ka for a reason.
