"Uht uht nah! Nigga my house back that way." Melanie said looking up from her phone.

"I know just chill, I gotta grab sumn real quick." Vonte replied as he pulled up to one of Spazz traps.

Vonte turned off the car. "Stay right hea I'll be back aight." Vonte told her making her wave him off and look back down at her phone.

She started texting Maddie.

If I don't make it home Vonte kidnapped me bitch 😭 I think I'm at one of my uncle spots.
Delivered.

Vonte jumped back in the car with a big duffel bag throwing it behind him, and pulling off in the wrong direction again.

"Okay if you tryna kidnap me just say that so I can whoop yo ass." Melanie furrowed her eyebrows.

"Girl what?" Vonte frowned never taking his eyes off the road.

"I'm just saying you going the wrong way again nigga." Melanie mugged.

Ignoring her statement, Vonte kept driving until they got back to their hood pulling up to a house on 38th street.

"You hungry jit?" Vonte asked parallel parking the car.

"Yea I guess." Melanie grumbled.

"Girl stop mugging, but aight when I come from outta here, we gone go get sum food." Vonte said quickly reaching back to grab the duffel and going in the house.

"I wonder who live here" Melanie thought out loud taking in her surroundings.

10 minutes had passed and then Vonte appeared locking the door in a completely different outfit than he went in with. He jogged down the porch steps checking his surroundings then hopping back in the car.

"That's what took you so long cause you went and changed." Melanie mugged.

"Huh roll this up" Vonte dug in his middle console retrieving some weed and blunts tossing it in Melanie's lap, ignoring her previous statement.

Melanie rolled her eyes and started breaking down the weed. The sounds of Yungeen Ace played at a steady volume in the car as they cruised down the street.

Melanie reached to turn down the radio cause she was again curious on where they were going, Nyny asked the nigga to drop her off not take her on a cross country adventure.

"Where we going at nah?"

"You ask too many questions jit, I told you we finna get some food." Vonte replied turning the radio back up.

Melanie frowned at his attitude, focusing her attention back on rolling the blunt. Once they stopped a red light, she rolled down her window dumping the guts of the backwoods out.

Vonte watched her out the corner of his eye as she quickly rolled two blunts. Watching her lick the last backwood to seal it did sumn to him. He unintentionally licked his lips but quickly put his focus back on the road before he crashed his whip.

"You so weird stop watching me." Melanie stated as she grabbed the lighter roasting the blunt to make sure it was sealed.

"Ain't nobody watching you, just fye dat bitch up." Vonte retorted.

"Yea whatever, it isn't polite to stare." Melanie joked as she lit the blunt taking a long pull.

She hit it twice more before passing it to Vonte and lighting the other one.
