"Tj's" I said. "Then no" he said and I sighed. "Why?" I asked. "Cause that nigga is slow. And he ain't no good. Like no bullshit" he said and I slumped down in my seat. "Yo unc you can drop me off at the crib." James said and my uncle Jawan nodded. "Alright mariah I got a question" he said. "Shoot" she said. "Do Q know you and Dequan together? Do he even know you here" he asked and she cleared her throat. "No." She said. "Damn. Maybe you should go over there. He a be happy to see you. But you stay with yo mom?" He asked. "No, my mom died bout a year ago" she said . "Damn that's why we couldn't get it touch with y'all. So where you staying?" He asked. "I got my own house" she said. "What?" He asked. "I got my own stuff. As far as cars, a house, money. I got it" she said. "Word? What you do Shorty?" He asked while drinking his water . "I slang" she said and uncle jawan choked on his water and J let out a loud cough making me mug him. "Nah" he said and she laughed. "Yeah. Been slangin ever since she died. I ain't have nobody, or nothing so I went out and did somethin about it. Then I met DeQuan , while we was bendin corners together. I ain't know uncle Q was his dad until he told me but he still don't know that My Daddy was Nezz. " she said. "Uncle nezz yo pops!!!!" James yelled lookin back at her. She slowly nodded and his jaw dropped. "Damn sis. You coulda told us" he said. "Damn that's like dequan datin his cousin" James said and uncle Jawan cut him off. "Nah. It ain't. I hate to put it this way but none of us in this car related unless y'all brothers or sisters or y'all one of my kids. Like Christian pops and Ciara pops was close and called eachother brothes and Christian dad called ciara his niece but they wasn't related in no type of form, no type of Way. That's how it is wit us, me and Christian ain't blood related, loyalty make us related. Shit that always been my brotha." My uncle Jawan said and James nodded. "Awl so that's like J and Cali likin eachother" James said. "Man pops I don't like that girl" J said. "Stop flexin kid" James said. J sighed. "Pops I promise you I don't like her. Yeah I like her as a friend, shit I don't even think I like her as a friend nomore. She been in her feelings ever since I told her I don't wanna be with her." He said and I looked at him "it's yo fault. You the one who bein Mr.confused and don't know what you want" I yelled and it got quiet. "Man Chill the fuck out. Nobody likes nobody aight? Damn I ask mariah a simple question and it turn into this. I swear I'm too old for this" my uncle Jawan said. "All I'm sayin is I don't like her so I Wish people a quit sayin that dumb ass shit" j yelled. "It's aight bruh." James said. "Yo pops let me out" j said. "Let me out" he yelled and uncle Jawan laughed. "Jawan velazquez Jr. If you don't sit yo ass down and chillout ima beat yo ass man it ain't that serious. You gone stay in this damn car no matter how much you and Cali hate eachother. Aight? So shut the fuck up" he said. J sighed and ain't say nothin else. My uncle Jawan scares everybody. He's crazy. But I hope j doesn't think he's hurting me by saying he doesn't like me Cause I don't care. He gone be mad when he see me and Tj together though.
