May 1st; Moving Day
"Don't fuck it up." Howard warned me with a brow raised.
"Bruh...what?"
He laughed and sat back in his chair. "I'm just sayin.... I'm doing this out of kindness."
"Nah, you doing this cuz yo ass really can't say no to that girl."
"Shit, you know how to pick em..." he grumbled. "Blew up my phone every day."
"She really can't take not getting her way."
He shook his head and laughed again. "Well, to paperwork is straight man. Worked it out with the judge...and you know yo ass gotta keep up with finding work. Busting the shifts at the auto body ain't gon cut it."
Licking over my lips I nodded. If only his ass knew I wasn't even at that autobody.
"I got it." Standing to my feet, I gave him a nod.
"And don't think cuz you moving, I still ain't watching yo ass...ima be popping up."
"I'll have a glass of scotch ready for you when you do nigga."
He waved me off and I made my exit from his office. Like clock work, as soon as I did...my phone started ringing in my pocket.
I thought it was gon be Sybil but to my surprise, I saw it was Marcus. Sliding to answer, I pressed the phone to my ear.
"Yo."
"Yo. Where the fuck is the packaging tape?"
"Why you asking me when you, Sib and ChiChi over there?"
"These muhfuckas over here hugging and crying. In all real reality, I'm the one making sure everything is getting in the U-Haul trucks. They ain't doing shit."
I laughed as I got in my car. "Tighten up and tell them to get the fuck up. I just came out of my PO office, I'll be there in like 10. Tape should be on the kitchen counter tho. That's where I left it unless Sib used it again."
"She had to cuz that shit MIA. And her ass too busy snot nosing for me to ask her to help me look. But Ight, I'll see you when you get here man."
"Ight."
Ending the call, I dropped my phone in the cup holder before turning over the engine.
Sib and I needed to finish loading everything into the U-haul, well....me and Marcus cuz it don't sound like Sib was gon be doing a damn thing.
Alexis was probably on her was, she was coming up with us. Plan was for me and Sib to be in one of the U-Haul trucks, Alexis would drive my car, ChiChi would drive Sib's and Marcus would follow behind so he could bring Lexi and ChiChi back home afterwards. And the rest of the shit would be brought by a moving company.
