Love & Basketball [Book 1]

Chapter 2

Cymphonique POV

Nicki and I are goin' to almost every store she can think of to buy me whatever I ask fo'. Fo'real I can go fo' a pair of new J's and a hat and I be good. I don't get down wit' bein' all fashionably drop dead gorgeous bruh. I'm not a barbie doll at all. A tom boy is what you can call me.

I got like endless bags in my hands and then some. Nicki walks me into this story and smiles when she sees these girls. She introduce us and apparently Regina is Lil Wayne daughter, Zonnique is one of the OMG Girlz and T.I's daughter, and Keke Palmer. I stay off to myself 'til Nicki just bring me along inna circle wit' 'em and leave. I just keep quiet while they talk 'bout nothing- nothing I care 'bout.

"So, where you from Cymphonique?" Keke asks.

"New Orleans." I said.

"Ooh that's cool. I've been there before." Keke said.

"I have too; on tour tho'." Zonnique said slick. Ion kno' her and I already don't like this chick.

"Mmm. Really? I never seen you perform." I said back at her and she mugs me.

"Ha-ha! Somebody's a sassy bitch." Regina said at me.

"Yeah, that's coming from a reject." I said.

"Reject," she gasps.

"Who you callin' a reject?" She adds.

"Hmm! Just that shit is true 'bout Hollywood kids. They all dumb as fuck." I said, smirkin'.

Nicki comes back inna store grinnin' all hard and so do they and I just scoff and roll my eyes. Fake bitches, I thought to myself when Nicki calls me over. They tell her that they like me and all that and how they want me to come to their lil' slumber party. Shakin' my head like nah when Nicki just shrug and say that it's a good idea. No, the hell it isn't,  I refuse to.

"Cymphonique, August found somethin' fo' you." Nicki said.

"Ooh, that was quick. I guess." I said, shruggin'.

"Yeah, but you hungry? We can swing by Popeyes to get somethin' before we get back home." Nicki said.

"Yeah I can go fo' that." I said.

We leave out when I hear 'em say bye to us and Nicki waves and I fake like I was 'bout to when I give 'em the finger. I must admit that today was a smooth day, an okay day. I got to see my cousin again and to top it all off I met some divas. I mine as well put a check next to err'thang that I have accomplished. If I have to deal wit' that err'day I swear I'ma leave this place.

I get inna car and Nicki start it up when my favorite song comes on tho', Hold up Wait A Minute (woowoo) by Antonique Smith, like the chorus part. I start hummin' when I just break out singin' 'cause I real live am in love wit' this song. Like her voice is on point... On who she don't look like Faith Evans wit' a combination of Christina Aguilera voice.

I deserve so much more
than what you're giving to me
I don't know how I let my feelings
make a fool out of me
but as I open my eyes
i see thai you must be blind
because somebody else like me
won't be so easy to find

hold up wait a minute (woo woo)
hold up wait a minute (woo woo)
hold up wait a minute (woo woo)
hold up wait a minute (woo woo)
wait a minute (woo woo)
hold up wait a minute now!

"Damn Cymphonique," she pause.

"You sound good. Just in case that whole basketball thing don't work out; try singin'." She said.

"It will." I smirk and lean back in the seat.

Sorry for this crappy chapter I promise I will make it up guys!!

I'm just on some dumb shit right now!!!
