Jewel I (In the beginning)

Chapter 23

        Ciroc pulled up to Claud's house in Crosland park. Mrs. Tatum was already inside of the house. It was big and white. The door was wide open.

        Ciroc and I got out of the car and started walking towards the house. Some men were moving the furniture out and loading it on a moving truck.

        Mrs. Tatum walked outside. "Any problems finding the house, ladies?"

        "No mam." Ciroc and I said in unison.

        She laughed. "How are you two doing this afternoon?"

        "We're fine." I said while Ciroc put up her thumbs up.

        "Come on. Let me show you the house."

        Ciroc and I nodded our heads and followed behind Mrs.Tatum. She started off showing us the living room, den and kitchen. Then she showed us the bedrooms.

        There were five bedrooms and three bathrooms.  One of the bedrooms was made into a game room.

        we went to the back yard where there was an in ground pool. It looked the same as Clayton's backyard. The grass was cut and the bushes were trimmed neatly. It looked so beautiful.

        After Mrs. Tatum finished showing us around, we went into the kitchen and sat down and talked. Mrs.Tatum ordered us some Pizza Hut pizza.

        Ten minutes later, Devon and Tyson arrived.

        "Wussup my people?" said Devon, walking in with Tyson behind him. He gave his mother a hug and then Ciroc and then me.

        Tyson gave Mrs. Tatum a hug. He waved at me and Ciroc but we didn't wave back. I just rolled my eyes.

        Mrs. Tatum started walking off and talking to Devon. Tyson sat down across from us and grabbed a slice of pizza.

        "That ain't for you.".I snapped.

        Tyson looked at me and waved me off.

        "I know you heard her." Said Ciroc.

        "I know yall better leave me tha hell alone." Said Tyson.

        "Or what?" I said, rolling my neck.

        "why yall playing games. I don't see what ya problem is. Buzz off."

        "So you gone act like that night never happen?" Asked Ciroc.

        "You right. I should be whopping yall ass right now. Look at my fucking head!"

        "We should be finishing up where we left off with you. I thought you was through." I said snaching his pizza.

        "Through?" He said,grabbing another piece of pizza and leaning back in his chair.

        "Yeah through. As in done with. Gone. No more." Said Ciroc.

        "Nawl I'm a warrior. But on some real nigga shit. If yall keep up this attitude and shit, you gone force me to do something I really don't wanna have to do."

        "What you gone do?" I yelled.

        "Ayee wuss going on yall?" asked Renee, walking in the kitchen with Michelle beside her.

        "Oooh nothing we was just having a little conversation."  I said grabbing a soda and walking up to give them a hug.

        Ciroc gave them a hug too. "We need to talk to Yall. Our did you forget Jewel?".said ciroc.
