Daddy Issues (Urban Book)

Chapter 2

-that Monday-

King POV

I was awaken by my mother banging on my door like she was the 5-0. I finally go up after she threaten me with pouring water on me, time for school. I'm a junior about to graduate next year, can't wait to prove everyone wrong! either way I hopped in the shower, I let the water hit my bruised body, shit still hurts from Friday. I'm glad I'm finally in, this is all I know! I have being in this game for 3 years now so it was time to show love to my fam. I got out the shower and dressed, I rolled my blunt and lit it. I know my moms hates that shit but she never bitches at me she always gives me those side comments. I got up from my morning session and finally headed to school.

I arrived to school and everyone was looking at me probably because of my sore face. I have a black eye and busted lip. As soon I renter the east hallway I got stopped by a few niggas trying to buy some

"After school bro"

I don't bring weed here that shit is stupid since these motherfuckers love bringing the dogs to check a nigga ain't getting caught up. The 2 dudes nodded and I continue to walk when I saw my girl chilling with her friends, I wrapped my hands around her waist and kissed her cheek

"King stop!"

"Whatever's babe"

She smacked her lips and I removed my hands from her waist before she cusses me out

"So king"

She said as she hooked her arm around my arm

"Supp ma?"

"Lena"

She corrected me

"Either way, see you today at tryouts"

And with that she kissed my cheek and walked in class, I walked behind her ready to hear Mr. Brown bitch. I sighed and started to "take notes" I was actually drawing my next tattoo, I was thinking about putting my moms name and face.

"So king what is the answer?"

Mr.Brown asked me making everyone look at me

"Uhh 30?"

Everyone started to laugh, shit I guess I got it wrong

"Really funny Mr. Jackson but we are in history class"

I shrugged it off,

"Do you really want to be a failure in life?"

"Just continue to teach aight?"

He sighed and did as I told him. I looked at Lena and all she did was look at me with disappointed but I shrugged it off

-After School-

Lena POV

I put my books into my ghetto as locker, I say ghetto because it has all types of tagging on it. I can't wait till I get out of Compton High.

I headed into the locker room and put my volleyball clothes. I really hope king shows up, he could be a professional ball player but he's stuck on this gang banging life and I know for a fact it's because he never had a father figure.
I headed to the gym and looked around the basketball team no sign of King, so I just sighed.

"Alright girls stretch!"

I heard my coach say, we all got up and started to stretch for about 20 min as soon as we finish his bitter as made us run 7 laps.

King POV

"Hurry up nigga!"

I said to the guy who was lagging to give me the money. As soon as that 30$ hit my hands I put it in my bag and ran to tryouts I thought I didn't make it but I saw the couch wasn't there so I sighed in relive. I say down by myself and looked for Lena, the volleyball team was running so I was ready to see some ass. I was in deep thought about some naughty shit when the coach started to speak didn't even notice nigga walk in
