Can't Run Game

Chapter 4

~ Amir

Lisa wanted me to hang with her, Alex and Hakeem but I told her I'll meet up with them later, I got shit to do and money is calling my name. "Amir come on." My dad yelled, I rushed down the stairs and got in his black Range Rover. "You ready to make this deal with the Cubans baby girl?"

"Born ready." He smiled and we drove far out to make this deal with the Cubans, they loved my dad product they wanted us to make at least 50pounds and ship it to them but my dad said they had to meet in person. When we pulled up I wasn't nervous at all I been making deals with niggas since I was ten.

We walked into this run down building and was lead to a big ass conference room, my dad sat down and I sat next to him then the man we were going to make the deal with turned around to face us, he looked about my dad age.

"Let's get straight to business while don't we, 50p for 50g." The man more stated than asked.

"Deal." I said, the man looked at me and my father. "Deal?" The man asked. I threw him the product and he threw my dad the money then we left. When we got in the car my dad told me how smart I was for making a good deal. When we made it home I went walking down to Lisa house, she was on the porch with Alex and Hakeem so I went to sit next to Hakeem.

I put my headphones in and then I felt a tap on my arm so I took them back out, I looked over and noticed Alex and Lisa was gone, them bitches know what they doing. "Can't speak?" Hakeem asked me. "Mouth work both ways." I said being a smart ass.

He chuckled and started back talking to me again, "Why you so mean girl?"

"I'm not mean, I just don't like you." I said rolling my eyes.

"What have I done to you."

"Nothing, I just don't rock with people." I said.

"Rock with me than." He said grabbing my hand I looked at him like he was crazy then snatched my hand away from him, I got up and went in the house. I didn't see Lisa or Alex so I decide to get some water and JJ was in there with his silly ass.

"Hey girl friend." He said hugging me I love JJ he is so fun to be around.

"Boy I am not your girlfriend." I said with a smile on my face. "At least not yet." He said walking out of the kitchen while Hakeem was walking in the kitchen, I swear if this boy don't leave me alone I'm going to kill him.

I was about to walk out the kitchen until he grabbed my arm. "What the fuck?" I said getting mad now.

"Damn ma, I just wanna talk for a few seconds, is that okay with you?" I looked at him and thought about it why not give him a chance. I walked further into the kitchen and he followed right behind me.

"So wassup, what's so important?" I asked with a lot of sass.

"Damn I just wanna get to know you that's it." He said I rolled my eyes and he chuckled. "What you doing tomorrow ma?"

"My name is Amir and minding my own business."

"You gotta smart ass mouth." He laughed.

"Who gone do something about it?" I asked about to walk away. He grabbed my arm and said "Can I take you somewhere tomorrow?" I started thinking why not get away from this hood life for a minute.

I gave Hakeem my number and went home, I started watching Why Did I Get Married 2 before dozzing off to sleep.
