CHAPTER FIVE
"BRUH you deadass cheated, on gawd,'' Double got up from his chair and pulled his pants up ready to throw hands at Stacks.
Saint shook his head as he watched them argue over a game of Uno. 'Childish motherfuckers'
"Ayo I'm out," He reached out to dab them. Double gave him a strange look, "Nigga where you going?"- "Think I don't notice you sneakin' and creepin' round lately?"
"It aint even like that." He lied, but it was like that. The past few weeks he'd been going down to the Salon just to see her but he would never admit it out loud though.
Although he trusted Double, he didn't trust his surroundings, motherfuckers envied him out in these streets and would do anything in their power to hurt him.
"I'm gonna go check up on Kaylon," He shrugged while walking up to his Range Rover. Stacks smacked his lips and nudged Double's shoulder, "Pussy got him lying on Kaylon's name."
Ignoring them, he got into his vehicle and drove off.
When Saint stepped inside the house he was immediately greeted by the scent of his grandmother's cooking.
"Hey ma," He wrapped his arms around his grandmother. She held her chest and put away the knife she was using to chop vegetables.
"Chile, you can't be running up on no old woman like that, I nearly stabbed you," She shook her head then went back to chopping the vegetables.
Saint leaned up against the counter watching her.
"Whachu know bout Curioss Rogers?" Finally breaking the silence, Gema looked at her grandson and cleared her throat.
"Enough to know that she had her share of drug dealers, hood niggas and crazy niggas," She chuckled and shake her head.
"She ain't had her share of Saint," He thought.
"Poor baby went to jail at the age of eighteen," Saint was deep in thoughts.
But he knew his grandmother wasn't lying, after all, she'd been around the block long enough to know everything that goes on. A pin couldn't drop without Gema knowin'.
"What she do?"
Gema turned around and made eye contact with her grandson. "Stabbed a man to death."
"Daddy!" Kaylon came into the kitchen and smiled causing Saint to look away from Gema.
"Hi babygirl, you lost a tooth or sum?" He looked down and grabbed ahold of her chin. "Yessh," She grinned.
