Are You Hearing Voices?

P. 43

Jason moved the plate up to Jerry and then he laid his head back down.

"Eat it bro." He said.

Jerry looked at the plate and lifted the bread up off it. He then bit into the sandwich.

"You sure I can have it bro?" He asked as his mouth was full of food.

Jason lifted up his right hand and gave a thumbs up, as a signal for Jerry to proceed.

"If you insist bro!" Jerry said as he took another bite of the sandwich and he began chewing again. Jason then lifted his head up off the table and turned towards Joe.

"Yo bro, is it cool if I go to your room and lay down right quick?"

"Go ahead, but we bouta go up there in a little bit me and Jerry to spark up, you gon join?" Joe asked.

"Idk bruh, that jawn that I sparked with your pops still got me fried. Idk if I'm gon be able to."

"I got that green crack bro." Joe said.

Jason's eyes immediately widened. "I'ma join!" He said.

"Bring that jawn up when you ready." Jason added. There was no way that he was going to pass up on some green crack.

Jason got up off the chair and turned around and began walking. He reached the stairs and began climbing it. As soon as he got up he turned right and entered Joe's room. Not a second after he took his shoes off and dropped down on the bed his phone began ringing. He dug his hand in his pocket and pulled out his Samsung Galaxy Note III. He looked at the screen of the phone as it was ringing, it was Christy calling him.

"Hellooo." Jason picked up on the fourth ring and said.

Christy gave a pause and didn't say nothing for a short while.

"Why do you sound like that?" She finally said and asked.

"Like what?" Jason asked.

"Like that. You're sluring your words. Boy are you drunk?"

Jason didn't answer the question, he gave a long pause instead. "Really bae?"

"What?" Christy asked.

"Are you? Cuz you sound like it."

Jason sighed. "It's against my Religion to consume alcohol. I'm just really high. I'm over at Joe's. I smoked some Jamaican weed with his pops now I'm all the way up there." Jason said.

Christy paused for a little bit. "Omg why are you such a hypocrite?" She asked.

"What are you talking about? How am I a hypocrite?" Jason replied.

"Cuz you gon talk about some 'it's against my Religion to consume alcohol.' then you gon talk about some 'I'm just really high. That's hypocrisy." Christy said.

"I'm not a hypocrite!" Jason said.

"Please elaborate sir."

Jason then adjusted his position on the bed and sat up. He wanted to make sure that he says the right thing to Christy, especially with such a delicate matter at hand. Jason doesn't like to be erroneous when he propagates issues about the Religion of Islam to others, that's why he always made sure to get as much knowledge as he could about the Religion.

"Okay bae listen carefully..." He said.

"There are different severity levels to sins. Drinking alcohol is mentioned in the Qur'an, whereas smoking weed is not. I'm not saying that it's okay to smoke weed, but I'm just saying..."

"You feel me?"

Christy gave another long pause, she didn't know what to say. Even though she wasn't Muslim, she knew that Jason made a clear point and was right.

She then sighed. "Whatever..."
