"I can drive today."

"Na, I gotta go meet wit sum people. Ima' be out already."

"Okay, if you say so. Who are you meeting with?"

"Some business people."

"Oh for the club?"

"Na, sum other people. You wit Kelly's class this week?"

"No, I have second graders this week."

"Oh aite. Dat's an hour too?"

"Yeah, since I'm only doing one class. I was thinking about doing stuff like this at my gallery one day."

"What?"

"Have different type of events and things. Let people come in and paint. Just like the paint and sip, but for anybody without the sips. Maybe have art classes. Plus, they can even purchase my artwork." I grabbed my wallet and purse, while Deuce grabbed my paint bag.

"Dat's dope baby. U should really do dat."

"Yeah maybe. Just an idea." I smiled, while closing up the door.

***

"I'a see u later baby. Love u." Deuce kissed my forehead, then my lips.

"Love you."

I got out, walking into the school to check in. After having a chat with the principal, who seemed to flirt with me every time I came, I walked to Kelly's classroom first.

"Hey, K. I'll be down the hall this week."

"Okay boo."

"Hey everyone." I said to her class, and even Tyler waved at me with a smile.

I thought my day was made until I walked into the second-grade class. I came face-to-face with Mango herself.

"Ms. Lyons right? I've already introduced you. They've been waiting for you." The teacher came to me.

"Thanks." I smiled.

"Oh, Ms. Lyons this is Tasha. She's Courtney's aunt. She'll be sitting in with us today. I hope you don't mind." She pointed to the little girl sitting at her desk.

I mind.

"No. That's fine."

I smiled small, and Tasha smirked. After getting the class started with easy stuff, I noticed how Mango kept staring at me.

"You got it Courtney?" I walked over.

"Yes Miss Blue." She smiled.

"Don't talk to her." Mango said smartly.

"Watch it Mango. We don't wanna do this in front of the kids now, would we?" I smiled.

"It's Cherry."

"Oh, well. Sorry I got your stripper name wrong."

"Everything okay?" The teacher came over.

"Yes, everything is fine."

DEUCE

"Thank you for doing business with us. We will speak again soon."

"Yea. Thank u. Preciate it." I shook their hands, and we walked out da café.

"Yo Boon. Wya?" I said into da phone.

"Warehouse. I brought Turf wit me."

"Nigga, y?"

"Ion kno. Dora had went off fa da day, so we came out."

"Boon get off my phone yo."

"Wait, wya?"

"Goin' to get Blue."

"Bring me sum Ore-" I hung up on him.

While waiting for Blue to come out, I stood up against the truck. I saw that hoe Cherry coming' out. She waved at me, and I stuck up my finger. I watched Blue come out, and she scrunched up her face when she saw her looking at me.

"Come on baby. Don't worry bout her." I opened the door for her.

"Her niece was in the class I helped today." She rolled her eyes.

"So she stayed the whole time u was there?"

"Yeah, and she got a staring problem." She mugged.

I just laughed at her.

"Can't help dat u beautiful baby."

She squinted ha eyes at me.

"Wat?"

"You up to something. Where you been, and why you being nice to me?"

"I ain't." I laughed at her.

"Yeah okay. Go get me some food. I need to get more canvas and paint too."

"Wateva' u want baby."

ART STORE - (not important)

"Okay, I need this. This. This. That. That. This is cute."

"Baby, can u hurry' up please?"

"Why are you rushing me?"

"My fault, but u takin' too long. I'm hungry."

"Okay im done, we can go."

"Thank u."

ZEL

"So wat we gone do about u?"

"Ion kno man. I just want my normal life back."

We check'd out everythin' wit Turf, and sure enough they killed Juno and his mom. Felt kind of bad for him cause he still young.

I honestly didn't even kno wat to do with him. I felt like he could stay a few days but then wat? Wat I'm pose to do now?

After sittin and thinkin', I got up and called the one person who would help me out.

"Hello?"

"Hey Ms. Tay- Mema?"

"Zel is that you? Hey son. How are you my baby?" She said excitedly.

"I'm gud. U busy?"

"No, no. Something wrong?"

"No ma'am. I just needed to talk to u bout sum things."

"Okay, shoot."

After explainin' the situation bout Turf, I waited for ha to say sumthin.

"Well son. I think you should help him."

"How can I help him tho?"

"Take him under your wing. Watch out for him. He has something in common with all of you. I don't think it would be that bad."

"So we fight for custody or sum? Can we do dat for 16 year olds?"

"Im not sure. He isn't 18, so probably. Look into it. You might actually help this young boy Zellon. It'll all work out."

"Thanks Mema."

"You're welcome dear. How are you and Millan?"

"We gud." I smiled at the thought of Mil.

"That's good dear. Im gone let you go. Don't forget what we talked about. Love yall."

"Lo-Love you too Mema." I hesitated to say it back. Still new to me.

I hung up the phone wit her, and made my way back to the livin' room.

"Hey baby. Where were you?" Milly asked from the couch.

"On the phone."

"Everythin' aite?" Turf asked.

"Yup. We gone get custody of u."
