Volume ten

"You so fucking dumb." I told Saymon as he continued looking at me. "Then you just looking at me like you fucking dumb."

"Watch ya mouth." He said.

"No, cause you do dumb shit then-"

"Watch ya mouth." He said slower.

"Stop being so fucking dumb." I mocked his actions making him chuckle. 

"And you mad but it's cool, Imma let you be mad."

"That's fine with me!" I rolled my eyes as he stood up putting on his stuff.

"I'll hit you up later and if you ain't off that bullshit don't even respond, it's no point."

"Whatever."

He closed my door as I laid there still a little upset. We were "arguing" because he still wants to be in the streets knowing he doesn't have to. Both of his jobs pays more than 15 dollars an hour and he still wants to run streets just because he can.

"Did you leave out yet?" I asked Jala.

"Nah, I was waiting on Jae but she just bailed on me talking bout she going with Reem." She rolled her eyes making me chuckle.

"Well you could come get me? Saymon and I just had a argument and he walked out." 

"Girl bye, you know he do not argue with you." She laughed. "He prolly just told ya ass to hit him up when you over ya attitude."

"Shut up." I laughed knowing she was right.

"I already know sis you ain't got to lie to me." She laughed some more. "But I'm leaving out now, stay on FaceTime with me though." 

I nodded as I cleaned up the clothes that was on the floor, I put on my shoes and closed my door not before making sure my window was locked and closed. I walked around the house making sure every window was locked, something Face said I had to do.

"Aye, you got something to drink?" Jala asked making me go in the refrigerator.

"Iced tea, lemon iced tea, cranberry juice, apple, orange soda, grade soda and water." I told her looking at everything grabbing a cranberry juice.

"Lemon iced tea." She said making me grab it along with a two bags of chips, a bunch of  fruit snacks and some cookies.

"Well damn." She said making me laugh. "Come outside."

"Alright." I put everything in my bag grabbing my keys, I locked the door then ran to the car door.

"Thank you." She smiled as I handed her juice, she pulled off real fast making me look at her.

"Okay Roman." I rolled my eyes.

"Roman? Damn you couldn't call me Don, Letty, Brian? Shit even Hobbs but Roman?"

"Cause he always saying something dumb." 

"Baby girl, you can get out." She said sounding like B. Simone. "This is my car, I had to come get you, you can get out."

"Alright." I laughed. 

We were on our way to Dylan court date, it's been a month since she took the charges for them and everyday it's gets more boring. I didn't know how much I would miss her until I was forced to be from around her.

"You spoke to Esme?" Jala asked.

"I think she still ignoring everybody."

"I understand her being mad at them but damn, what the fuck I did?" She asked making me laugh.

"Dylan the other half of her, I think she just hurt and mad." I shrugged. "Most you can do is give her time."

"I understand, a little." 

"So wassup with you and Q?" 

"Girl." She looked at me blankly making me laugh. "We broke up."

"Why?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Cause he was texting some bitch like I been cheated on before, I'm not getting cheated on again."

"You sure it wasn't Ice bitch? A few weeks ago some bitch texted Saymon but it was for Ice, I didn't believe him until Face told me he was telling the truth."

"It wasn't for no motherfucking Ice, that bitch was calling him motherfucking Quade."

"That's Q real name?" I asked shocked as she nodded her head.

"That's how I know he fucking with that bitch, nobody know that fucking boy name."

"Niggas ain't shit." I shook my head.

"But it's cool." She looked at me. "Cause it's plenty of muhfucking fish in the sea and I'm looking for a fucking dolphin."

"Jala!" I laughed loudly knowing she was dead ass serious.

"No cause Quade has Jala fucked up just like Jay had Jala fucked up. I guess I just got a sign that say "she the stupidest bitch there is" or "cheat on this bitch"."

"I don't see it." I egged her on recording her.

"Like am I ugly?" She asked. "Nah I ain't even gon ask that cause I look good as fuck and if you say I don't you a got damn lie."

"Did you say something to him?"

"No, when I saw the message he was sleep. I went through the thread then walked out his house, blocked him from everything along with his lying ass friends. Knowing he would pop up I told every damn body in my house to say I wasn't there or I didn't wanna be bothered."

"How long has it been since you spoke to him?" 

"Like four days." She shrugged. 

"Well you're going to see him today."

"I know but me and you have plans."

"I get the gist." I chuckled.

We continued talking as she made her way to the courthouse, when we pulled up we had to circle the block a few times. Finally pulling into a park I grabbed my bag filled with my snacks and walked to the entrance with Jala by myself.

"Fancy seeing you here." Jala said as we saw Jae and them making them turn around.

"Bitch-"

"No bitch shut up, we not best friends until further notice." Jala cut her off making me laugh.

I took off every piece of metal and emptied everything before going through the metal detectors. I started putting my stuff back on as I looked at all of them. My eyes focused on Saymon as he was talking to Kee not paying me no mind making me roll my eyes.

"Bubs, you good?" Face asked as I hugged him.

"Yes, what about you?" 

"Yeah, I got this girl to tell you about."

"Girl?" I questioned raising my eyebrow.

"Yeah, I met somebody." He smiled.

"You must like her, you told Es bout her?" 

"She still not talking to me so nah but she know about Es."

"Good don't want another Brenda situation."

"Hell no." He chuckled. "You wanna meet her later? Me, you, Saymon and her could go on a lil double date."

"I'm not really talking to Saymon right now so I don't-"

"What the fuck you do to my sister bitch?" Face shouted making everybody look at him as I rolled my eyes, he was so dramatic.

"Ain't nobody do nothing to that girl." He waved him off.

"He must wanna fight, right?" Face asked Ice.

"Obviously. You hear his tone, right?"

"So I'm not tripping, right?" 

"Hell no, pop em then I'll pop this big ass cop when he try to arrest you."

"Bet."

"Stop, don't even play right now." Reem looked up from his phone. "This should be y'all court date cause y'all wanna be fucking stupid but Dylan took the shit for y'all, stop fucking playing."

"Yo, it's been a month and you still on this." Benji looked at him. "We hear this shit everyday, we get it son damn. You ain't got no kids and I damn sure ain't one so stop acting like you niggas father."

"If ya father-"

"Too far." Q stepped up cutting him off before he finished his sentence.

"If he was what? Finish it." Benji stood over him.

"I'll knock you the fuck out if you don't get from over me."

"Wait hold on, don't hit him while he on me." Jae said trying to push Reem off her lap.

"Y'all niggas tripping." Mickey said.

"Y'all doing too much." Kee jumped in. "Niggas fucked up and Dylan took the fall for it, it ain't shit we could've did to prevent it and it ain't shit we could do now."

"So everybody shut the fuck up." Q added. "Cause none of y'all niggas could beat me."

"I'll have you sent to ya mother in a bag like some oxtails though." Mickey said making us laugh.

"I'll really fuck you up but you know you my brudda." Reem said.

"You know wassup." Benji said sitting back down.

I shook my head they always do this but I guess when you been friends with people this long, y'all can have arguments then play with each other in the same minute.

"Aye stop fucking playing with me." Q told Jala as she was into her phone smiling. He snatched her phone as she started laughing.

"What I look like to you? Oh wait I know." She pulled out the sticky note that said "a dumb bitch" putting it on her face. "Yeah, this the perfect look."

"Best friend!" Jaelyn laughed as I started laughing with her.

"Nah cause I hate niggas. How you a possessive cheater? Fuck type shit is that?"

"You so damn loud." Benji pushed her.

"And you so damn ugly snotty nose ass." She pushed him back.

"Why you doing allat?" Ice asked snatching the post it from her forehead.

"Don't question me, question that bitch Keekee." She said making Q scrunch his eyebrows.

"Damn, she found out bout Keekee?" Ice laughed. "Finally, now come fuck with a real nigga."

"She was just something when you was mad at me or annoyed me." Q said. "I ain't do nothing with that bitch."

"And Shakim gon be here just because." She chuckled. "So is Haj, Jah, Micah-"

"Ice." Ice added making me laugh.

"How you gon talk to him?" Q asked.

"By doing the same shit you do bitch."

"How?" He repeated throwing her phone to the floor mad hard as I heard the glass crack. I opened my mouth as everybody just looked at the phone on the floor.

"Excuse me? Can I go get my knife out the car?" Jaelyn asked. "This nigga has me and my best friend fucked up. Reem get off me."

"Stop." He told her once she finally pushed him off her. "Strong ass little girl."

"Y'all just don't know how to act in here." Spencer shook her head.

"Court room 12 is now open." The cop said.

Jala picked up her phone and walked ahead of us, I shook my head walking into the court room. There were other cases before Dylan so we were waiting a whole 20 minutes before her case finally got called.

When she walked out she was wearing a grey baggy sweatsuit, her weave was taken out along with her nose ring. She wore her natural hair in a ponytail which looked clean and neat as fuck. I focused my eyes on her face seeing her lip was split, her face was a little swollen. She looked over at all of us, she smiled but stopped.

"She looking for Esme." Kee shook his head as she started looking sad as fuck.

They started reading her charges as she sat down, we all listened closely. The lawyer the boys hired was real expensive and did a damn good job at her job.

"How would you plead?" The judge asked.

"Guilty." Dylan spoke as my heart started beating real loud.

The judge asked a few more questions then looked through some more papers, he looked up and finally spoke. "24 months with time served."

"Damn Dyl." Face mumbled as I leaned on him growing sad.

"I love you Dyl!" Jaelyn yelled as they started walking her back out. 

She glanced back as I saw the tears in her eyes making tears come to my eyes, she mouthed I love y'all then smiled before they walked her out. Saymon came over to me hugging as my tear fell, I quickly wiped it not wanting to cry in front of them.

"This my sister bitch, move." Face pushed him hugging me tighter. "It's okay Bubs, she good."

"This is a win." Her lawyer said. "If she wouldn't have took a plea deal she was looking at 10 years just off the weed."

"We know, thanks Sherry." Reem shook his head.

"Aye I probably need you soon so-"

"You always need me Mickey." She rolled her eyes making us laugh.

"I'm sad now." Jaelyn pouted. "I'm going in the house to cry and post videos of me and Dylan."

"I'm coming over." I told her.

"No, why don't y'all come over?" Spencer asked. "I just know Kee bout to leave and I'll cook."

"It's free food, why wouldn't I?" Jaelyn said as Jala was silent.

"Well then we can all just ride with Jala since I rode with Reem and you rode with Kee."

"I'll see you later." I told Saymon.

"Check ya phone when you get in the car." He spoke making me nod.

"Uh uh, I'm her best friend I automatically get front seat." Jae said making me laugh as I was about to get in the front seat.

"You mad?" Spencer asked Jala, she haven't talked since Q threw her phone.

"I'm mad as hell." Jala spoke.

"Run him over." Jaelyn spoke as they were all standing there by the street.

"Do you wanna be cellmates with Dylan?" Jala asked.

"Switch seats with me."

"Jaelyn, are you dumb?"

"No, switch seats. Now."

Jala looked at her once more but they climbed over each other as Jala was in the passenger seat and Jaelyn was in the driver seat. Jae started adjusting everything then put on her seat belt as I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Pu on y'all seat belts, safety first." She looked back at us as we did as she said.

She pulled off real slow then sped up, Reem was looking at the car so just as the car got close he pulled both Q and Benji. Everybody looked at the car as my mouth went into a O shape, she was really going to hit him.

"You a real lucky ass nigga." Jae yelled out the window.

"Imma fuck you up." Reem told her.

"Mind your business." She told him before pulling off.

I shook my head chuckling as we started talking bout stuff until we got to Spencer house, Kreed was at school so we had he house to ourselves. I sat on the couch as Spencer sat next to me, I texted Saymon then went on Instagram.

"Don't worry, I'll get ya phone fixed for you." Jae told Jala as she kept looking at it.

"Aw, I wished I had a best friend." Spencer chuckled.

"Right, a real loyal one." I added.

"So why don't y'all be best friends?" Jaelyn asked.

"Might as well be, y'all close and always around each other." Jala added.

"Best friend?" Spencer asked.

"Best friends." I smiled latching my pinky finger onto hers.

"Ya old friend still be talking bout you?" Jala asked.

"I don't know, I blocked her once she kept commenting on the pictures I put up of me and Saymon."

"You know them petty videos that's been going around on Instagram and Twitter? Make one." Jaelyn chuckled.

"No." I shook my head. "Imma just be feeding into her and egging her on."

"So? She on Instagram fake putting ya business out there so why don't you be petty too?"

"She still on Instagram going on? It's been like three months now, she's in a whole relationship." I rolled my eyes. "What it say?" 

"This was three day ago." Spencer read. "This bitch "stole" my boyfriend but he still stalking my Instagram and wondering what I'm doing. Your bitch don't throw it back like me, she don't hold it down like me and she damn sure don't look better than me. I mean I should've known the bitch pussy was ass when the nigga Quayel fucked then left her alone, same with Nate. She a pass around, Saymon just wanna come back so bad and Imma let him just so he can eat my pussy."

"Girl." I said then busted out laughing. "She's a whole liar. I was in a relationship with Quayel but he didn't know how to be faithful so I left and I never fucked Nate. Ain't no nigga gon ever leave me high and dry."

"Do it, do it, do it." Spencer, Jala and Jaelyn chanted making me laugh. I downloaded the app doing it.

"I'm doing it." I chuckled.

"Imma fuck you up." 

"For why?" I asked Face as we sat down at Applebees.

"That stupid ass video you put on Instagram."

"Oh well, she keep slandering my name so why not play into her game?"

"Because you better than that." Saymon answered.

"I know I am but I wanted to be petty with her." I shrugged. "She have people coming up to me everyday or I'm getting talked about everyday because of all the lies she spreading. I get it, I was wrong but she's in a whole relationship now and still throwing shots so why not have people laughing at her for a few?"

"I mean I don't give a fuck about what happened to the bitch and I'll knock her out myself so I'll let you handle it however you want to."

"Thank you, now I'm Sanaa." I smiled at Face friend.

"I'm Elle." She smiled. "You're so pretty."

"Thank you, so are you."

"Aight, compliment me." Face said making me laugh.

"Where y'all meet at?" Saymon asked.

"He works at Footlocker so I came in with my friends-"

"You know when you fucking with a bitch and find out she the ugliest?" Face asked. "She was the finest out the group."

"You so annoying." I laughed.

"Anyways." She chuckled rolling her eyes. "We walked in and they needed his help. After he went in the back they all talking bout he cute but I'm too busy, I found something I liked but they was too high he comes behind me to reach for the shoe and then he started flirting. I got an actual look at his face then started flirting back and shit."

"Aw, a footlocker love story." Saymon chuckled.

"So how long ago was that?" I asked.

"A month ago." She smiled. 

"Word." Face chuckled. "We been cooling and shit for a whole month, you know she ain't let me fuck yet?" 

"Face." I shook my head as they started laughing. "You too outspoken."

"He is." She chuckled.

"Do you work? Go to school? Any kids?" 

"I have no kids but you could say I do cause I basically raised my little brothers and sisters. I do work at the post office and Journeys, I'm also in school to be a patient technician."

"Wow." I nodded my head impressed. 

"Hopefully now you could finally stay the fuck away from me and mine." Saymon said making Face smile drop.

"Yours? Bitch she mine for life. Ain't no replacing me, ever."

"Okurr." 

"So I'm replaceable? Wow. Okay."

"What? I'm not saying that." I laughed.

"Yes she is cause I'm forever, han han han." Face stuck his tongue out.

"You gon be highly upset when y'all not gon share the same last name anymore."

"Shut the fuck up." 

"They do this often?" Elle asked.

"All the time." I rolled my eyes.

"Oh God."

"I'm ready to order." Saymon said waving down a waiter.
