Ty's P.O.V

"Pass the ball!" My teammate jayceon shouted but I kept dribbling.

"Ty, pass the ball!" My homie Derek shouted.

Someone else yelled about them being open but I ignored them crossing my opponent up making him fall back going up for the lay up. The whistle sounded off as I came down.

"Ty what the hell was that?" My coach Mr. Hayes asked hands on his hips. I ain't gon lie he looked pissed.

"I was playing ball coach." I answered simply.

"That's not apart of the play nor the ball we play here Ty!" He stated.

"Man.." I said clicking my teeth squeezing the ball.

"Look I get you're star player but act like it."

"What you mean Coach?? I put up 40 points a night on my own." The moment I said that my teammates shook their heads.

"All I'm hearing is I when there's definitely not one In team."

"But there's a me in that bitch." I said making some of my teammates laugh but still shake their heads.

"Look do you think Kobe and Jordan did it on their own?"

"Man...." I said knowing where this was going.

"Nope Kobe had shaq, Jordan had pippen." My coach stated.

"Lebron had Dwight." Derek jumped in scratching his head.

"Now he got unibrow." My teammate Leroy jumped in making us laugh.

"Curry got a whole team." Jayceon threw in as well.

We all started to mumble stuff and make jokes.

"With that being said, you can't do it on your own, lean on your team sometimes." Coach said.

"Because all we're doing is helping your conceited ass look better." Derek mushed my head.

"Man watch out." I shoved back laughing.

"Aight let's run it back." Coach blew the whistle and we reraned the play.

*Later That day*

"Aight bruh I'll catch you later." I said to some of my teammates as I walked of the campus leaving practice.

"Aye ty." I heard a car approach me as well.

"Aye wassup C!" I shouted as I admired his I8 and just thought to myself how I wanted to grow up to be like him.

"What you up to jit?" He asked

"Just leaving practice. What you doing here?" I finally asked due to curiosity.

"The boss sent me." He said with a smirk.

"My sister?" I asked with a chuckle.

"Yeah... yo sister. Yeah she sent me to come scoop your knuckle head ass up." He said returning the small laugh.

"Aight." I walked around the car swinging my bag in first before I sat down.

"You fucking my sister?" I arched my eyebrow looking at him.

"Nahhhh jit. As fine as she is don't matter how many times I tried she always turn a nigga down saying 'noooo C, I ain't got time, it wouldn't work." He said imitating my sister voice and we both laughed.

"Yeah that sounds just like Addy. Ain't got time for shit but running the world." I shook my head.

"It's like this tho my nigga, if it's not me some nigga gon make her pipe down." C said and I agreed.

It took about another 15 minutes before we pulled up to the crib and I thanked him before getting out walking into the house.

"Addy!" I shouted throughout the house and didn't get a response.

I just go upstairs to my room. Taking off my shoes I close the door behind me. This is normal. Eveytime I come home Addy never here, she's always out running shit. Ever since mom passed it's been like this, but Addy says it's how she provides a way and afford all the luxury that I do have. My dad, well he was never around so I didn't expect anything different when mom passed.

I play ball at Palm beach Atlantic University. I hated it there not gon lie. It's a private school, Christian school at that, if it wasn't for the basketball team I would of been jumped ship. Plus private schools aren't that innocent like most people assume.

My phone vibrate a couple of times and look at it to see it's a few text messages.

I started responding to the messages, texting my sister back first.

From: Big sis 😈🔫

I love going to the trap so I never have a problem. I instantly get off my bed and put my shoes back on. I then got another text message.

From: P.O.T🤤🔐

To: P.O.T🤤🔐

With that being said I put my phone in my pocket and head downstairs.

Addy's P.O.V

"Aye listen up!" I shouted getting everybody to shut up.

"Wassgud shordy?" Chase asked.

"My brother gon be running shit while I'm gone. Everything goes through him and only him. Don't call me with the fuck shit because I'ma say ask Ty. If I find out anyone of you getting out of line with my brother that ass is mine when I get back. Give him respect and Ty don't do no dumb shit you know I wouldn't do." Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Just one question tho?" Joie asked.

"Wassup?"

"Do it have to be him?" She said and everybody laughed. "Like can it be C or something." She finished.

"Listen C going with me ya know that's like my right hand." I explained briefly and I started to get these weird looks from everybody.

"Mmmmm ok girl." Joie commented sipping her tea.

I noticed C staring at me giving me those googly eyes that he always do. Listen, C is not a bad guy at all hint to why he's my right hand. I trust him and he loyal. He's not bad looking either, but it's just my life don't allow room for no dude. Gotta stay focused on the money.

Everybody started to go into their own convos for plans for the upcoming weeks. C walked over to me with that goofy ass smile.

"I am?" He asked with a smirk.

"You are what?"

"Your right hand?"

"Ain't that what I said."

"Why won't you let me both you already know I won't ever do you wrong." He sympathized and he was right.

"Yeah i know, but my life..."

"Don't allow room for no dude or maybe just me it's cool I get it. But I will never stop trying." He looked into my eyes sincerely so I know he meant what he was saying.

"Don't let me turn you soft." I joked shoving his shoulder.

"Ha never that." He walked passed me bumping my shoulder right before slapping my ass. I turned around instantly looking at him walk backwards as he bit his lip and turned around to walk straight out.

"What we gon do with him." Haze asked from behind me and I just shook my head.
