Trusting You

Chapter 3

Narrator P.O.V

The weekend had gone by and everything was going good. Jazzie, Red, and Dee had a good time at the club Saturday; Jaz did hella networking while she was there. Although, Red and Dee wanted to enjoy a work free environment; considering they had to work Monday morning. Jaz couldn't help herself, celebs were in the building; although she was off; connections had to be made.

August on the other hand was working, doing things around Angie's house & others for a few buck. Sunday, he attended church, something he's been doing for 7 months now. Considering his situation, God is all he got. His mind clouded with random thoughts of his family back in NOLA, which now lived in Houston, Texas; but was soon pushed away due to the horrid memory which caused him to move in the first place. 3 years had gon' by and he has yet to contact his mom or sister in law. Missing his nieces dearly one-day he's going to visit or move them to Atlanta, so he hopes.

Monday

6:40 am

For the second time; his phone alarm sounded off:

Don't you open up that window

Don't you let out that antidote

Poppin' pills is all we know

In the hills is all we know (Hollywood!)

Antidote by: Travis Scott, glared lowly through the speaker on August phone. Rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. He finally got out of bed, headed to the bathroom to do his morning hygiene. Getting out of the shower he dried off, putting on boxers' basketball shorts, white t-shirt, and socks. He headed back to his room as he begins digging threw one of the 3 suitcases he had; looking for something to wear.

He finally decided on some blue washed jeans with holes in the knee, a black t-shirt, and black tims. Putting on his shoes, he checked the time on his phone; it read 7:56am. He got up putting his denim blue bucket hat on, ray ban sunglasses , Rolex, and 2 gold chains. Headed out the door of the shelter; he proceeded to call Angie. She offered to drop him off and pick him up.

10 mins later she pulled up; they rode in silence as she drove through downtown Atlanta morning traffic. Stopping at McDonald's, the order some breakfast. About 30 mins later; 8:57 am he texts Jazmine for the code to get into the gated community. 3 mins later she texted him the code; 2 mins later they pulled into her drive way. Putting the car in R she told Aug to called her when he's ready to go and she would be in the area running errands.

August P.O.V

It was 9:03am when I got out the car, as Angie made her way out of the neighborhood; I walked up to the door and rang the door-bell. Moments later she came to the door with a cream velvet robe on and step aside to let me in. As I step in the house; she asked me to remove my shoes off at the door; I did as told and followed her into the living room. She then excused herself, I'm guessing to change in something presentable.

As I sat there waiting, I played a racing game on my phone until I eventually grew bored. My mind traveled back to the day I first laid eyes on her. But my thoughts were quickly interrupted as she cleared her throat to announce, she had entered the room.
