I stepped outside on the porch to get a breath of fresh air. I literally been in the house since I got here 3 days ago. I don't like to go outside much.

"Aye that boy weird on Vzz." Ace said.

"Oh wassup Tae." He said to me.

"Hey." I replied.

"You been cooped up in grandma crib for a brick finally you wanna step outside." Ace said.

"Well I just came back in town, haven't been here since I was like 13 or 14 so I don't remember half of the people here." I said.

"Well we going out to the club tonight, wanna slide?" Ace asked.

"I don't know." I said.

"Man you need to get out the crib, be active." Ace said.

"I know, I might come." I said.

"Ain't no might you are coming." He said.

"Girl move- Hey Tae." Aubrey said.

"Hey." I said smiling.

"I was telling her about us going out to the club tonight, she said she might come." Ace said trying to sound like me.

"She don't have to come if she don't want to, but please tell me you want to I really wanted to hang out and get to know you more." Aubrey said.

"Okay fine i'll come." I said.

"Wait how are we getting there?" I asked.

"B3." Ace said.

"Well that's how YOUR getting there." Ace said smirking.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.

"Nothing he just stupid." Aubrey said.

"Speaking of B3 there he go right there." Aubrey said.

"Nigga drive like his mind gone bad." Ace said as he pulled up to the parking spot.

"Follow the speed limit sir." Ace said as B3 stepped out the car.

"Fuck up." B3 said.

"Mmcht nigga move around." B3 said.

"Aye, your grandma home?" B3 asked looking at me.

"No, she's at bingo." I said.

"Oh ight." B3 replied.

"Um, sir i'ma grown woman and I don't need your approval for anything." I said.

"Ight, let's see if Pops let you go out with them." B3 said.

"Did you hear the part where I said I was a grown woman or are you hard of hearing?" I said.

"Who you talking to?" B3 said.

"Better go back to being quiet and stuck up before you get put back in your shell." B3 said.

"Why you talking to her like that." Ace said.

"Man shut up you don't even know her." B3 said.

"It doesn't matter you've been mean to the girl since day one cut her some slack." Ace said.

"Nah." B3 said.

"Where you think you going?" He asked completely ignoring my question.

"Out." I said.

"Girl your grandma will kill you if she saw you  wearing them shorts." He said.

"I'm grown." I said.

"Doesn't matter." He said.

"Why don't you want me to go out and have a good time?" I asked.

"I do but I just don't want you going with us." B3 said.

"Ion really do you that much." He added.

"You don't have to." I said.

"Aye Tae you ready to go." Aubrey said looking into my grandma house.

She must of saw the door open.

"Yeah let me grab my purse." I said walking to go get my purse and B3 followed me.

"Um, what you doing?" I asked.

"Gotta take a leak, move around." He said.

Rude.

"Hurry up so I can lock up the house." I said.

"I have a key, don't trip." B3 said.
