Well since I got sent home I expected when I got there for somebody to be there. I couldn't go to sleep because I had just woke up three hours ago for school. I had nothing to do so now I was about to go play ball. I hadn't played so I was gone do that for the next three days.
Once I got dressed in my basketball attire I got my ball out my closet and left. As I drove to the gym I started to get frustrated for some odd reason. My gut feelings came as I pulled up in the parking lot.
I got out grabbing my ball phone and water. I walked in the empty gym and started my stretching first. Once I got done stretching I started of with free throws. And after that I just practiced on lay ups and threes.
*6:51 pm*
I had been practicing for four hours straight. It was about five more people in here and that was it. I decided that I would take a break. I walked over to my stuff and grabbed my water. My phone was vibrating as me and Pierre picture popped on the screen. I picked up my phone answering.
"Yooo" I answered and he sigh in relief.
"Bro you scared the shit outta me, where you at?" He asked and I pulled the bottle from my lip.
"The gym" i told him and he smacked his teeth.
"Why you punched that girl like that" he asked me and I honestly forgot about her.
"Because she tried me like I'm not bout tha'you feel me" I told him as I sat on the bench.
"Hurd you, You going viral and shit" he said and I shrugged.
"Not my first time" I said as I drunk the rest of my water.
"Aye tho, you with August? His moms is looking for him" he said and I was really confused.
"Well he told me he was going out to eat with them" I said and he sigh.
"Imma call you back" he said hanging up quickly. I looked at my phone.
"Word" I said as I dialed August number. I called and he sent me to voicemail.
Me to August😊: so you forwarding my calls now? -7:00 pm.
I walked back on the floor and finished my basketball practicing. I knew he was lying to me I just didn't wanna believe it at all. My heart did not wanna take the hurt at all. I finished basketball practice early because I wasn't in the mood nomore.
I went straight home I didn't see his car in the driveway. I sigh getting out the car. I wanted to cry that's how bad it was. See this exactly why I hate caring for people. I end up putting to much of my heart and mind into people sum shit always happen. I walked in the house to see Mama T on the couch talking with Tasha.
"Hey y'all" I said closing the door behind me.
"Hey ummm... have by any chance seen August?" She asked me and I shook my head no.
"I got suspended from school, so I haven't spoke to him since earlier" I said and Tasha looked at me with a confused look.
"Lord I hope he ain't out here selling again. I lost one and I ain't trynna lose two" she said and I was confused and I felt bad for her.
"I'm going upstairs to shower" I said as I rushed upstairs. I didn't wanna talk about nothing anymore.
*11:41 pm*
I was now in my bed watching Brotherly Love with KeKe Palmer and Quincy fine ass. I was on the part where she in the bathroom talking to him. I felt that part when she said "don't have me out here looking stupid".
Everybody was sleep and I was the only one up. I couldn't sleep I don't know why but I just couldn't. Once the movie went off I turned the tv of and laid in my bed. I was so close to my eyes closing but guess what? SOMEBODY CALLS ME.
"Fuck yo- Hello" I answered. August took a second before talking.
"You home?" He asked me and I honestly didn't know how to feel bout him at this point.
"No I'm actually leaving for my flight to Jupiter" I told him sarcastically and he giggled.
"Well I just wanna say goodnight sin-" he said and I smacked my teeth.
"Night" I said hanging up the phone. I tossed it somewhere on my bed and rolled over attempting to go to sleep. It took a couple more hours but I eventually went.
*August P.O.V.*
YA BOY GOT SIGNED! I was so excited that I got in the studio right after. I record my verse to I Luv This and they told me that it was gone be a surprise on who would be featured on the song. I had a certain time for my studio which was 12:00 pm to when I wanted to leave.
Earlier I found out Payton punched the shit out of ti. I was scrolling on Instagram as I took a breath and seen it. She had went viral in three hours. I didn't like the fact that she hit Ti. Ti is crazy, I've seen her fight and I know how she get.
I was now at home laying in my bed sleepless. I couldn't sleep. Even though it felt good to accomplish one of my BIGGEST dreams, I didn't feel right lying to nobody. Especially Payton, that made me so mad that I had to lie to her.
"August where you been?" My mom asked and I shrugged.
"Rodney's" I lied and she nodded biting her lip folding her arms.
"August your lying, I called Rodney he was looking for you" she said and I sigh. Shit.
"Ma I'm sorry for lying, I'm just very busy" I told her as I walked towards the stairs.
"August, I just wanna know where you going, I already lost a son and I'm not trying lose another one" she said and when she said that my heart started to ache.
"Your not, so don't think like that. I'm not doing anything illegal" I told her and before she could respond I rushed upstairs closing my door. I plopped down on my bed calling Payton.
"Hello" She said in irritation.
"you home?" I asked her and she smacked her teeth.
"Actually no I'm leaving for my flight to Jupiter" she said smartly and I giggled.
"Well I just wanna say goodnight sin-" she cut me off before I could finish.
"Night" she hung up in my face and once I heard the line beep I tossed my phone in frustration. After about five minutes I called her again but she didn't answer.
"What I do?" I asked myself and I smacked my teeth calling her again. She didn't answer.
