Same day

Fool me one time shame on you

Fool me twice, can't put the blame on you

Fool me three times, fuck the peace signs

Load the chopper, let it rain on you

These niggas don't know who they messing with I have to have a snake in my trap because this isn't the the first time this has happened.

We arrived at the trap to the goons I had stationed outside.

"How in the hell did they get past y'all Debo lookin' asses" Von questioned with a mug. He hated when people played with his money and product just like the rest of us.

"We-, well" one of them stuttered.

"We-, well what! Y'all can't speak now? You know what never mind get everybody in the common area now" I stated walking in.

Everything was in disarray. Product all over the floor , hoes look frightened and shit I don't have time for this.

"Now will someone tell us what happened" I asked while leaning against the desk.

Everyone was silent that you could hear a pen drop. Then one of our workers Ty spoke up.

"Well I was just getting here when I was walking in the two that are usually posted out was not there. I went in I seen the guys they were masked. So I pulled out my piece and started blasting. As they were running they said this is from Red." He explained while asking his head.

"Why wasn't y'all niggas posted?" Cam asked while pulling out his gun swinging it back and forth between the two.

They looked at each other.

"We—-" they were caught off by Cam shooting them both between the eyes.

"Clean this shit up" Cam ordered two of workers as we walked to the office.

We all came in and sat.

"This shit is getting out of hand we really to act like now"Von exclaimed while getting up pacing.

"You right"Cam agreed.

"He is going to be expecting us if we do it right now. So we wait till Friday like we planned." I explained.

"You better be right about this"Von stated.

"My high is completely blown"Cam expressed while sparking a blunt.

"Aye let me hit that"Von replied while hold out his hand.

"Y'all always wanna get high" I laughed.

"And you know this. Now can you explain what's going on with you and my girlfriend"

"What you talkin' bout" I asked with my eyebrow raised.

"You know exactly what I talking about. You and Nana looked pretty comfortable to me all laughs and googly eyes." He questioned.

Ain't no lie she fine asf but I not worried about no girl right now.

"Ain't nothing going on man you tripping."

"No I ain't. But you do you I give you three months."

"Give all the months you want I don't even like that girl"

"It don't seem like it" Cam added.

"Okay whatever but I'm about to head out. What about y'all" Von asked.

Cam and I agreed and we all left and went out separate ways.

"Hey brother" Chloe greeted as I walked in.

"Hey, where momma?" I asked.

"In her room"

I walked to my mom's room and seen she was getting ready.

"Hey momma, where you finna go"

"Hey, if you must know I have a date tonight."she responded while spraying on perfume.

"A date"I asked again just to make sure I heard her.

"Yes a date. I need to get my groove back."

I can't argue with her because she's my mom but I don't like the idea of her dating again.

"How long have you known this man?"

"Not long"

"Just be safe please I don't want to half to beat his ass"

"Aye! Watch yo damn mouth."

"Momma someone knocking at the door"Chloe shouted.

"He's here now be polite." She stated while grabbing her clutch while walking out the room.

When she opened the door a man appeared. Something about him seemed familiar. I don't why but it was something.

"Hi, how are you?" He asked while giving her a hug.

I just stood back with a mug.

"Good and you" my mom replied.

"Fine, this must be your son Dashawn". He said holding his hand out.

"Oh yes, Derrick this is Dashawn and this little munchkin here is Chloe.

"Hi , nice to meet you guys"he greeted.

"Hello"Chloe said shyly.

"What's up"I replied dryly.

After that they left. Chloe has already ate so I put her in the tub. She cleaned herself and got out. Then I put her to bed. I ate some left over spaghetti. Hopped in the shower and went to bed.

Nariya

After the guys left. I left shortly after.

"You know Derrick still haven't came home yet. He said he was working overtime but I just don't know momma"my mom stressed on the phone to my granny as I walked in.

She then looked back when she heard the door close.

"Hey ma , Nariya just walked in. I'll talk to you later. Love you. Bye."

"Hey baby. How was Kiya's"she greeted while giving me a kiss on the cheek then walking into the kitchen.

"It was fine. Dad working overtime tonight" I replied while sitting on the stool.

"Yea. Seems like the new thing."she stated mumbling the last part.

"He's never around anymore"

"I know honey. But he's just working to provide a better life for you" she explained trying to persuade me but was really trying to convince herself.

"Okay. What did you cook tonight" I asked dropping the topic.

"I cooked your favorite" she exclaimed smiling.

"Lasagna! You know I love your lasagna" I expressed while getting a plate.

"I know. Now gone and eat. I'm bout to go take a shower."

After I got my food I found something to watch on Netflix. To keep me occupied.

After I finished eating. I finished homework that's due on Monday and went to sleep.

And that's all for now!

What is your favorite food?
