Vea's POV

          The sun was  out shining and as always, children were outside in their front yards  and sidewalks playing games like mat ball, four square, or playing tag.  Other residents stood aside looking after the kids or were just sitting  outside enjoying the weather on their stairs.         

Preciosa looked down at  her lap and as fidgeting with the strands of her hair. She looked over  at me was I was pulling hit from the clip. I needed this Mary Jane. "So,  how have things been going lately? How's the baby?" Preciosa asked me.  She peeked over at my stomach then looked at me.

"Tss, shit been going  downhill lately to be honest with you, Preci." I blew the smoke out and  shook my head. "My baby is doing good, no complications. I've been  stressed lately so I need to chill out with that. Me and Dajon had a big  fight all over some bullshit news Myah told him."

"What happened? They still fuck with each other?" She furrowed her eyebrows.

"Girl I don't know but  the bitch is pregnant by him." I said and passed the clip to her. "Then I  got Isla to deal with cause her and my brother broke up. She's been in  my bed crying all day ever since Uni left from here. I feel so bad.."

Preciosa took a hit from  the clip before blowing the smoke out slowly from her nose. "Guess  we're all going through relationship problems. At the end of the yea  too, isn't that something?"

"Yeah." I mumbled. "You know me and Camberly ain't friends anymore?"

"She told me. I just  paid her no mind cause she was on some weird shit that I wasn't fucking  with either. She kept yelling at me and all this weird shit saying I was  supposed to be her friend like girl....I knew Vea for a while now. I  met her through Shyliek. She got furious at that and just stored away  from me. I wasn't about to chase her or kiss her ass though, bye bitch.  Hate females like that." She shook her head as she remembered her last  encounter with Camberly.

"I was abut to kill that  bitch, honestly. She had the nerve to come at my mother like girl you  really got a death wish you must want to come true. Fuck her though, ole  fake ass bitch. That's why 3Gunna and his crazy ass ex back together.  She the baby momma and all so it was bound to happen." I shrugged my  shoulders and took my phone out to start scrolling. Preciosa was good  company.

"Fuck her. It can just  be me, you, and Isla as a trio. Three is enough anyway." She chuckled  and passed me the clip again. After doing O's with the smoke she spoke  up again. "I need to find a job or something. Baby sitting ain't really  cutting it no more."

"I heard Price Chopper is hiring. Maybe check that place out." I looked at her.

"Price Chopper?"  Preciosa asked with her face squinted up, "Bitch I don't wanna bag no  types of food. Especially cold ass freezer food? Nah. I'll work  somewhere like Walmart or even Family Dollar. Shit, I'll take  Stewart's." She sniffled and wiped her nose.

"Mad fast food places is  hiring. Mad food courts in the mall is hiring too, you better hop up on  that girl." I laughed and blew the smoke out. The clip started  unraveling a little so I started fixing it.

"Hm, maybe. Though I heard FantaLust is lookin for some girls."

"FantaLust?" I looked at  Preciosa like she was crazy, "Giiirl, hell nah. You don't need to be  out there shaking ya ass and showing your goodies to those ugly ass men  over there." I heard all about that night club and shit was always going  down in that shady ass place.

She scoffed and rolled  her eyes. "I'm not that dumb, I wouldn't apply for a stripping position.  I was thinking about being a server or a bartender. Trellis would kill  me if I even stepped out the house in short clothing."
