One Night

Jass

"Hey Ash" I said sitting down

"Hey Jass... What's up" he asked

He must've known I came for something. As I seem to always do, but not like that. I never need money or anything of that nature; I always need advice.

"Wassup Jass" he asked again breaking me from my thought

"Oh uhh not much ya know just doing what I do best- teaching dance on weekdays and Zumba on weekends" I chuckled at that last part. "And you"

"I was just chilling till you popped up- what do you need" he asked

"Umm well, I just wanna know what to do- I mean I've know ki for forever and i-"

"Jass I don't mean to be rude but I don't want to hear about this anymore- I a lot going on and this just isn't a priority" he said

"Sorry- uhh how's school-"

"School is school... Like every other day " he walked away, down the hall to his bedroom

I guess I'll just let myself out then. I walked down to my Lyft and hopped in. "Where to" he asked as if he didn't see my destination on his phone

"Royal Cannon, the runners entrance" I said looking out the window

"You don't look too good- you feeling okay" he asked

"Yeah... I'm fantastic" I said with the least amount of joy

"Okay well to Royal Cannon we go" he said pulling off

I laid back in the seat... As if life wasn't already hard it just keeps getting harder. I'm not one to complain and if I have to I'll do it privately but damn.

Kihroa

"I'ma go down to Cypress and see if he down there" Tav said walking to the doorway

"Alright I'ma cool it here till someone come back, just because ya know-"

"Shut yo lazy ass up you know you finna call Jass" James said walking out with Tav

"Man shut up" I said throwing the pillow at the door- missing cause he ran.

I went up to grab the pillow and then went to my bedroom to talk to Jass. She ain't answer after a couple rings, so then I called Kiara.

Kiara: just a headache, my migraines been going crazy so I'ma get my meds recalibrated
