chapter seventeen:
CLOSER

———

Later that day.
Jacques.

"I don't even know how it's possible to feel tired after sleeping for twelve hours. I'm losing my mind! College is hard!" We were sitting on the living room, listening to Scarlett venting about the negative things of going to a college.

This made me think about my situation with college. I definitely did the right thing and never attended it in the first place. I'm literally doing what I love, making music, and Kanye with T.I. and his team helps me. I'm living my dream already.

Meetings and late studio sessions are my daily routine, except these past few days. I got some days off and visited Kells, as I should.

Don't get me wrong, I miss my parents, I really do. But they need to understand that I can't be the golden college boy they want me to. I'm a hustler. I want to be my own person and do what makes me happy, which is making music.

They will start talking to me once I start getting my rap money, and that's gonna be okay with me, as long as I reunite with them and make them proud of me again.

But right now my only focus was on music and making money, so I can survive. It was also on my best friends, meaning Kells, Scar and Chase. These three are some real ones. They've helped me with a lot of my shit and I'm grateful to have them in my life. They deserve the world.
"Man, imma take y'all on vacation or buy a house for all of us when me and Chase become huge." I said without thinking. They all looked at me weird but I ignored it.

"Um, that was kind of random." Scar said and I nodded.

"Just wanted to let y'all know. Just to thank you for keeping up with my ass."

"Aw, you don't need to spend money on us, Jack." Kelsey rubbed my ear with her thumb and I rolled my eyes.

"Nah, I'm keeping the promise I made back when we were younger."

When we were twelve years old, I realized that I wanted to make music and take it seriously. I talked to them about it but they laughed at me. I didn't take it personal, they were just playing. So I made a promise to buy a house for all of us when I would make it. I already feel closer to making it, as the days pass.

"You better buy us one in Beverly Hills, then." Scar said and we all laughed.

"Bet." I smirked and dropped the subject.

"Here, take this. It will calm your headache down." Kelsey passed a pill and a glass of water to me and after I swallowed the pill and drank the water, I laid on her bed with my palm on my forehead. It was hurting like a bitch.

"Man, I've never had such bad headache before. I don't know how to feel." I whined and she chuckled before sitting on her knees on the bed, next to me.

"I swear you're so dramatic when it comes to headaches or stomach pain. Fever too." She messed with my braids and I sighed.

"Am not. And keep massaging my head please."
