After school, Asia and Zay met near the bus loop. "What's, so important why that this couldn't be done over text?", she questioned him with her arms folded.

"I wanna see if you'd lied to me or not", Zay said with a calm voice.

Zay knew Asia like the back of his hand. Their bond is very strong and he always looked out for her growing up.

"Does he hit you?", he asked.

"No", she responded. "We just got in an argument, he grabbed my arm a little to hard, that's it".

"And you allow that shit?", he asked. "I know better".

"Listen, this shit isn't your business. Nothing is going on that you need to mind, iight?"

"You really gonna come at me like that?", he asked.

Asia sighed. "Zay... listen. I can handle myself, okay. Besides, I don't even think I'm the only one. So I don't even know how long we gonna last"

"Why you say that?"

Asia puts her hands up. "We haven't even had sex yet. 4 or 5 months with no sex?? Shit is too perfect. Then last night he was talking to somebody at 3 in the morning. And no telling what he does while I'm at school." Asia looks down, sad.

"Well... you're smart. You know what you're doing", he said. "You know what choice to make", he says as he put his hand on Asia's shoulder.

"Thanks", she said with a slight smile and looks up at him.

Zay smiles. "Ya know.. I love seeing that. It'd be more beautiful if it wasn't so dull"

Asia smiles bigger, which makes Zay smile and stare.

Suddenly they hear a car horn and they look to see Josh's White Porsche sitting and waiting for Asia. Zay stops smiling and so does Asia. Josh gets out the car and walks up and puts his arm around Asia's waist. "What's up Trey", she said while looking at Zay.

"Bruh you know my fucking name, and that's damn well ain't it", Zay said.

"It's Zay, Josh", Asia said.

Josh acts embarrassed and shakes his head in his hand, "my bad bruh".

"Whatever. Just treat my fucking homegirl right"

"Zay chill. Come on josh.", she said trying to stop the subject.

"Hold up. You can go ahead. I don't wanna interrupt him", Josh said.

Asia walks to the car and get in not wanting or feeling like being in the middle of that conversation. Josh looks at Zay with a mean mug. "You think I don't see the way you look at her?? Seem like you want her to be more than just yo homegirl and I ain't with that shit".

"I mean look at her she's fine as fuck, yea I like her a little bit but I don't doing shit to change out friendship", Zay said honestly.

"Do me a favor bruh, stay away from her.. for your sake", Josh informed.

"My sake? Is that a threat bruh", Zay gets in Josh face. "Cause we can take this shit to the hood"

Asia looks at them through the window.

Josh chuckles. "It's a promise"

"Asia know what you do for a living??", Zay asked.

"Nah", Josh said. "For her safety"

"You might be big around here. You might have the connections and the money. But I ain't scared of you nigga", Zay said.

"That's cute... but you Asia friend. Just don't fuck with me cause I'll do it regardless", he said with a smile and put his hand on zay's shoulder so that Asia would think nothing's wrong. "Y'all can talk, just no contact, please and thank you"
