"Ole dude don't like me." Kentrell said over the phone.

"Who?" I pressed the phone harder into my hear waiting on him to answer.

"Boomer." He said after a while.

"And why you say that?" I walked into the kitchen and went straight towards the pantry to grab some snacks.

" Earlier today Three told me that Boomer told him he don't want me hangin' with dem' no more and he said sum' about me being weird. That shit gettin' old." He sounded like he was sad but he quickly covered it up.

"Dont worry about them. You still have me, Kd, Ben, and Three." I said trying to cheer him up while I grabbed two pop tarts off the bottom shelf.

"They gone change too. Just wait a couple more days." He mumbled.

"But I can promise you I won't change." I said seriously.

Kentrell wasn't lying when he said they were going to change. Joe came up to me with the rest of the group and told me I had a choice to hang with them or stay with Kentrell 'wEiRd AsS'. I don't know why everyone called him weird. Shit is mad childish. I don't see anything wrong with him in my eyes. But anyways it's just me and Kentrell and sometimes Kendell thuggin' it out by ourselves.

Everytime we walk down the school halls everyone would give us disgusted looks or even throw paper balls at our head. I almost had to beat up a bitch for giving me a paper cut. I don't know how Kentrell always keep his cool. He's so humble all the damn time.

"What you wanna eat dummy?" Kentrell pulled up to Burger King.

"Nigga I said I wanted IHOP. Where'd you get Burger King outta IHOP?" I reached over and slapped his head.

"Do you have some IHOP money?" He rolled his eyes at me.

"Duh." I showed him my wallet full of money.

"Shidd. Then let's go." He zoomed out of Burger King.

"Don't wreck my Truck." I held on to my seat belt as he drove pass several cars.

"Mhmm." He reached over to turn up the radio while continuing to drive with one hand on the steering wheel. In my feelings by Drake came on, I automatically started to dance in my seat

"KeKe do you love me? Are you riding, say you'll never ever leave-." I sung as twerked in my seat.

"Let me change this cause you doing too much." He changed the radio station. Boo'd Up came on making him smirk.

"Now I'll never get over you till I find-" I rolled my eyes and turned the radio off.

"What'chu do that fore'?" He mugged me.

"That shit is getting over played and it's started to get on my nerves."

"You a hater." He tried to turn the radio back on but I slapped his hand.

"I don't care." I shrugged my shoulders and hopped out the car as he parked in front of IHOP or IHOb. I don't even know anymore.

We sat down by the nearest window and waited for the waitress to come back as we looked through the menus.

"That's Ben and nem'?" Kentrell mumbled looking behind me . The first thing I saw was Joe boo'd up up with Jania.

"That's one ugly ass couple." Kentrell laughed showing his diamond teeth.

"You ain't lying." I continued to stare at them until the waitress came back.

"What y'all want to eat?" She said smacking loudly on her gum. I looked at Kentrell then back at the waitress. This nigga done took us to the Ghetto IHOP.

^^I'm just making up shit now🤷🏽‍♀️💀

"Um can I have a medium-well burger topped with bacon, hashed browns, and a fried egg and a side of hotcakes." I told her nicely. She nodded and turned her head at Kentrell.

"I want the same thing as her." He mumbled. She wrote down something on her notepad before walking away.

"Why you bring us here?" I hit his shoulder.

"What'chu talm' bout? You said you wanted to come here." He rubbed his shoulder and started playing with the salt.

"Don't even worry about it." I leaned back in my seat.

"If it isn't these two lame ass hoes." I looked up to see Jania smirking at me with Joe and Boomer standing behind her.

"Move around." I ignored what she said and looked out the window. I wasn't trying to start nothing in public.

"You heard ha'. Move around." Kentrell said as they just stood there looking dumb.

"You here this nigga? No he tryna act bold all of a sudden." Joe laughed with Jania while Boomer stared in shock exactly like me.

"Nah I think he right. let's go." Boomer tried to walk away but Joe grabbed him back.

"You scared of this pussy nigga?" Joe pointed at Kentrell.

I saw Kentrell nose flare and his chest started to heave up and down.

In a blink of an eye Kentrell was on top of Joe sending hard blows to his face. I tried to pull him back but Jania yanked me by my hair.

I fell on the floor hard giving her a full advantage to beat the fuck outta me. She got on top of me and started sending baby hits to my face and stomach.

I flipped us over so I was now on top of her and started banging her head against the ground.

"Stop them!" I heard someone yell.

I felt someone tried to lift me up so I swung at whoever was trying to grab me and continued to bang this bum ass bitch head until she her shit was leaking.

"That's enough. Chill out guh'." Someone picked me up. I turned my head only to see Kentrell with busted lip.

"We gotta go. Twelve on tha' way." He ran outside to the Truck and threw me in the passenger side  before hopping in himself and drove off.

I didn't say nothing the whole ride until we made it to my house.

I got out and stomped all the way to my room.

"You aight?" I heard him ask behind me but I ignored him and ran my fingers through my sore scalp.

"I know you not mad." He turned me around so that I was facing him.

"Get out my face." I pushed him out the way and grabbed my clothes so I can take a bath.
