《Music System》Chapter 8
Advertisement
It took a month, but Guy finally had decent change saved up for a car. Around $2,000.
It was after a hard day at work that Guy took the bus back home. Honestly Guy actually had plenty of money saved up to either put a down payment on a good car or straight up by a decentish car. The only reason he hadn't was because he wanted an SUV, but he hadn't found a decent one. He wanted an SUV because they would remind him of his day's in the hood. Most would want to forget, but you can't, so Guy decided screw it. He was going to by a black SUV with black tinted windows with 26 inch rims and a massive sound system. He had his eye on a car selling site, he only need time.
So for now he was taking the bus. He actually already contacted the seller and set up a time to check out the Tahoe on his next day off.
After two extra days of work Guy had another day off, which luckily matched up with his mom.
The mother son duo both woke up around 10 a.m. with Amelia waking up just a few minutes later. When she walked out of her room into the kitchen she saw her son who was wearing a clean wife beater and pajama pants cooking some breakfast for him and Amelia. Amelia was wearing a pink nightdress that Guy had bought her from Queen's Castle. He bought it since he couldn't find the perfect time to give her the necklace he bought her. So he decided to get her some super comfy pajamas and would give her the necklace on her birthday which was nearly half a year away.
" What'cha makin son? "
" Eggs and fried bologna, and some toast if you want some. "
" I can take care of my own toast, you just worry about cooking. "
" A'ight mom. "
After that Amelia pulled out two pieces of wheat bread for Guy and two slices of white bread for her self. She then put her own bread in first, that way Guy's bread would be warmer and toastier when the food was done.
Guy noticed what his mother had done and he grinned like a child. It was small instances of love like that that really made Amelia special. After that Guy focused back onto the eggs. He was making himself some scrambled eggs with a bit of butter and no seasoning. For his mother he used a lot of butter and a bit of salt, pepper, and onion powder, her were also over-easy.
He then moved onto the bologna, he fried his slightly more than he did his mothers since he liked his slightly burnt while she didn't. He then put her food and his food on separate plates picked up both of them and moved to the dining table where Amelia was waiting hungrily.
They then proceeded to eat while Amelia rambled about her work while Guy listened.

" You remember that new's fellow who was hitting on me about a month ago. Well he came by again and specifically asked for me. I tried telling him I was busy with another customer but he waited. It was honestly so annoying, this is the third damn time he has asked for me and I wish he would take the hint. You know? "
" I'm sorry mom, maybe you should give him a chance, he seems pretty nice. "
" You sound like those hussies at work. Always telling me to " give him a chance ". "
Amelia said that with a mocking high pitched tone making Guy chuckle a little.
" Anyway, you haven't met him. He has an underlying arrogance that he tries to hide, but I can tell. "
" Then next time just ask one of the girls to cover for you and tell them to say you went on break or something. "
" Good idea. Anyway are you pumped to maybe be getting your first car? "
" Naw the car doesn't matter, I'm just happy to be spending another day with you. "
" Oh shut up you little lady killer, your lucky you aren't at the salon or the girls would eat you up. Anyway don't try to hide it from your mother, I can tell when you are excited."
" Alright alright maybe a little. "
After that Guy picked up the Styrofoam plates and threw them away and then he started washing the forks. Amelia started to make some coffee for herself, Guy didn't actually like coffee, but he loved herbal tea. Right when Amelia was pouring herself a cup she she slapped Guy on the arm.
" I just remembered, how are we going to get the car back if you buy it? "
" I'm gonna drive. "
" But you don't know how, and you don't have a license. "
Guy then diverted his eyes from her. Amelia seemed surprised and grabbed her son's shoulder's.
" Alright son tell me. I won't be upset, your twenty four so it's not like I can punish you easily anymore. "
" Fine. So you remember Rat right. "
" Yeah. "
" Well you remember when he used to steal his dad's truck? "
Amelia nodded seeming to have already caught on.
" Well he wasn't the only one to take it. Actually I was the first one to steal it. He only started once he took the blame. "
" Son, why did you never tell me? "
" Didn't want to stress you. Anyway, I want to apply for my license once I bought my first car. "
" That works. So is there anything else you want to tell me? "
" Then do you also remember that one month when Ms. Wheely ( Piano Teacher ) gave us a month of free classes when we had a hard time. "
" Yeah, don't tell me you had sex with her. I always thought that whore was a pedo. "

Amelia got herself worked up when she heard what Guy had said. Guy seemed to be surprised by his petite mother who looked ready to throw hands.
" Nonononononononono! Chill mom. I started to sell " drugs " to some rich white kids. Honestly I was cutting up some grass and putting it with a little bit of real pot. That's how I got money to pay for my own classes and some other stuff. "
" Where did you get weed? "
" Rat, who else would sell to your son, you were the most protective parent on the block. Everybody else was to scared to sell to me. Even Rat sold to me only cause I told him I was going to flip it. "
" Is that all? "
Guy meekly nodded his while Amelia shook hers. Honestly she wasn't that angry, she was just surprised that her son had been able hide so much from her. She used to think her innocent little son told her everything from girls he had crushes on to when he would get into trouble. Amelia's favorite part of the day used to be when Guy would tell her all about his day.
She sat down and started thinking about that while Guy brought out his guitar and started to play in the living room while watching television. Amelia just watched him from the dining table while sipping her black coffee.
About an hour after the two ate breakfast they started the hour long drive to the private seller with the Tahoe. They talked and listened to music they entire time talking about work and news and any other type of subject. Guy had already told Amelia about his best friend Luther from the mall. Amelia thought it was kind of odd considering the age difference but forgot about it considering that Luther was so friendly to her son. Amelia told Guy about how she was thinking of going to school to really advance her her skill as a hair designer. She already scouted a training program that would also help her get her licence. Guy also told Amelia about Samantha who was still slightly annoyed thinking the hussy was hitting on her baby boy. But she wasn't as angry once she learned the girl wanted to help Guy fulfill his talent. It was an enjoyable ride for the both of them all the way until the sellers house.
When they got there they met a chubby white guy who was the seller. They walked up and Guy stuck out his hand to shake the seller's hand.
" Hello I am Guy, I'm here to check out the 2002 Tahoe. This is my mom. "
" Hello I am Simon, nice to meet the both of you. The truck is around back if you'll follow me. "
The two followed Simon around the back of his average looking house. He had a couple of trucks and a single car littered about. Only one of the trucks and the car looked like it could actually drive. The Tahoe was in a large shed/ garage that looked nicer than Simon's actual house.
Simon led them to the garage where he opened both of the barn doors. Inside was a shiny black Tahoe with tinted windows so black they were barely legal. It had shiny chrome rims that looked basic but expensive. The interior of the Tahoe was a white and red suede leather. Guy didn't look excited or unexcited, he didn't want Simon to know he could jack up the price. Inside though he was doing a little dance. Amelia like Guy was basically emotionless, but she was also excited, for her son though and not herself.
" Why are you wanting to sell her so cheap. She looks like she's had a lot of work done. "
" Honestly the car was something I bought for my adopted son. He had always liked SUV's so I bought it and did do lot's of work on it. Thanks to some shitty circumstances though he and I have had some differences and well I need some money. So I am selling her for a steal. "
Guy nodded his head before talking again.
" Are you selling the rims as well, oooorrrrr you wanting to keep them. "
" I can sell them. "
" I'll add on another fifty dollars to the original $1,500. "
" Are you kidding, those rim's alone are worth $800, don't even get me started on the leather and paint job. "
" 'Nother $150. "
" Three hundred. "
" Fine, I have cash on me so I can buy now. "
Guy wanted to complete the deal A.S.A.P since he didn't want anybody else coming in to buy the car out from under him. Guy was really lucky to actually be getting such an amazing deal. Honestly the car really could go for another couple grand at least.
" Alright $1,750 right. "
" I thought it was $1,450. "
Both Guy and Simon bantered each other. While Guy discretely pulled out another hundred fifty. He didn't want Simon to see he actually brought out $1,900. He left a hundred in the back, just in case. After that Guy forked out the cash happily when Simon gave him the keys.
" Alright I'm driving the Tahoe back. "
" WHAT?! WHY!? "
" Beecccaaaauuuuussssssseeeeeeee, you don't have any experience driving with tinted windows. Plus you are more likely to be pulled over with windows that dark. "
" ' Huff ' Fine. "
After that the two drove back home, both of them nonchalant. Being nonchalant was the key to not getting arrested.
After that Guy spent a week to get his license. If one of his past lives had been watching they would have been jealous at the speed and efficiency of the the Dmv.
After that Guy loved showing off his ride to his mom and his entire two friends, Luther and Samantha.
