The Reality of Our Lives

Redhanded

Devon - "Hurk said we need to lay low on hitting licks and shit because they tryna find out who robbed the old man crib."
Jaden- "I heard that the old man in the hospital."
Devon- "Fuck that man but why you ain't tryna re-up ?
Jaden- "I need a break."
Devon-"You need to be tryna get this money you got a lil one on the way."
Jaden- "I know."
*Jaden's thoughts*
I couldn't fuck with Hurk anymore because he's greedy. He used us to get what he wanted. Ain't no future on being a crash dummy. I need money but this ain't the way to go. Terrance was telling me that Hurk do this type of shit all the time. He uses young people to be his crash dummies. Terrance gave me his plug number. I just want to sell drugs from now on. After school i ride with Shanae to see Terrance's plug. We pull up to the address and it's a trailer that looks like a trap house.
Shanae- "Who house is this?"
Jaden-"My homeboy just stay in the car."
Shanae-*kisses Jaden* "I love you don't take forever."
Jaden-"I love you too and I'm not."
*Jaden's thoughts*
I didn't tell Shanae why i really needed to come here. I just told her i needed to stop by my homeboy house. I am really here to get put on by Terrance's plug. It looks like a trap house because it's a lot of dogs chained up in the back. I walk up to the trailer and i instantly smell a strong marijuana odor. I knock on the door and a tall, skinny dude comes to the door with a gun pointed at me.
Palo- "Why the fuck you knocking on my door?"
Jaden-*puts his hands up* "Aye i just came here to talk to Palo."
Palo-*laughs and puts gun down* "What do you want with Palo?"
Jaden-"I want to buy a quack."
Palo-"Nigga you twelve?"
Jaden-"Hell nah Terrance told me to fuck with you. I'm tryna get put on."
Palo- "Come in."
Jaden- *comes in and sees three other guys chilling and getting high*
Palo- "I'm Palo and you young as fuck and i ain't never put no nigga on your age."
Jaden- "I feel you but i can show you I'm on some grown man shit. I got a daughter on the way."
Palo- "Damn homie, is that your baby mama in the car out there?"
Jaden- "Nah."
Palo- *laughs* "Must be yo side bitch."
Jaden-"I was with Hurk."
Everybody in the trailer- *laughs*
Jet- "Man you must be hot then."
Palo-"I cant fuck with you if you're hot. Hurk be sending young niggas on dummy missions."
Jaden- "Nah my name ain't hot. I just got with em' and i peeped his game."
Palo- "Yeah he ain't built right. Imma fuck with you though cause my bro put in a good word for you. If you get caught up you don't know me."
Jaden-"Bet."
Palo-*hands Jaden the drugs in exchange for the money*
Jaden- *gets back into the car with Shanae*
Shanae-*puts her top lip up over her nose* "What's that smell?"
Jaden- *smirks* "It's the the gas."
Shanae- "Unt, Unt not in here bae."
Jaden- "Chill I'm about to drop it off over my homegirl house."
*Jaden's thoughts*
Grace had texted me the other day asking if everything was ok and shit. I figured i could leave my stash at her house because i know i can trust her. Shanae don't know that i fuck with Grace so i ask her to take me to Grace's house. When i get to Grace's house i just tell her to make sure she put it in a safe place for me. Then i get back into the car with Shanae.
Shanae- "So you're a dope boy now?"
Jaden- "I been that you just ain't know."
Shanae- "Mhmm, well you need to be careful out here."
Jaden- "Don't worry about me I'm not these other dudes you be talking to."
Shanae- "What other dudes?"
Jaden- "I don't know you tell me who so they can get slumped. You're mines and i mean that."
Shanae- *Cheeses* "You better not be talking to nobody else."
Jaden- *leans over to kiss Shanae* "Let's go to my crib. Peyton ain't there."
Narrator- Jaden and Shanae goes to the back room at Peyton's house and start having sex. They are so loud in the room that they don't realize that Princess is knocking on the front door. Princess uses the key under the mat to unlock the door. She walks in and hears Jaden and Shanae in the back and opens the door.
Princess- *in shock* "What the fuck?!"
Shanae- *gets off top of Jaden*
Princess- *leaves the room*
Jaden-*heart starts beating fast* "That's Peyton's daughter."
Shanae- "She ain't going to tell on you is she."
Jaden- "Nah but you should go."
*Jaden's thoughts*
I wasn't worried about Princess telling Peyton because she wouldn't do that. I was worried about her telling Chelsea what happened.
Shanae-*starts putting her clothes back on* "Ok i guess I'll text you." *leaves*
Jaden-*puts on his clothes and walks into the living room where Princess is sitting*
Princess- *shakes her head* "You're a whole ass hoe."
Jaden- "Please don't tell Chelsea. Please I'm begging you."
Princess- *gets upset* "No you're sick as hell. Chelsea is pregnant and you're still cheating on her.
If you're going to be do all of that just be by yourself."
Jaden- "Please just don't tell her i don't want to hurt her."
Princess- *looks confused* "You don't want to hurt her? If you didn't want to hurt her you wouldn't be doing the bullshit you're doing right now."
Jaden- "I know but can you at least let me tell her?"
Princess- "If you don't tell her by tomorrow I'm telling her." *rolls her eyes at Jaden*
*Jaden's thoughts*
I know that i am wrong I'm not justifying anything that I'm doing. I know that Princess is definitely going to tell her if i don't. I just don't know how to even tell Chelsea I'm cheating on her. It doesn't even sound like something i can do.
