"And don't expect for me to pay my respects either since you wanna go fed and shit.." He said.

"Hush ya mouth nigga.." She said. "You like the food Duke?" I scooped some more rice and gravy in my mouth, I nodded.

"I wanna see if I like the food.." Cruddy said.

"Oh my god Cruddy. Do you gotta come over here being annoying everytime?" She asked opening the fridge. She grabbed a plate out, unwrapped it, and shoved it in the microwave.

"Thank you my queen.." Cruddy said with a bow, We laughed. This nigga is a clown.

"How's Kataleya? Where is she?" She asked, I shrugged. I didn't know where she was or how she was doing. She ain't been answering my calls or texts all week and then every-time I go to her house nobody answer the door and shit.

"What you mean?"

"I ain't heard from her in like a week.." I replied.

"Me either.." Cruddy said. "That's weird.."

"What you mean?" I asked looking over at him.

"I usually talk to Mama everyday but I ain't heard from her inna minute.." He said with his eyes slightly squinted. "You think she dead?"

I mugged. "Get the fuck away from me.." I said.

"I'm just saying.." He said as Ma put his plate down in front of him. She put the fork down and went back to her cup of coffee, I think she got liquor in it but that's none of my business.

"You need to go check on her.." She said.

"How?" I asked. "Ion even know where she at.."

"You have her mom number. You can get in contact with people you wanna get in contact with.."

"I'm trying. Nobody picking up.." I expressed.

"I'a go over there with you when we leave here.." Cruddy said looking at me, I nodded.

"You coming to dinner Sunday?" Ma asked sitting her mug down, I shrugged lazily before pulling my phone out. I went to my messages to see if I had any from Muga but I had nothing but normal shit.

"Ion know.." I said looking at my phone.

"What you mean youn know?" I huffed and put my phone down before fixing my hat on my head.

"Ion know fahreal. It depends.." I explained.

"Well, come. And bring Kataleya this time.." She said.

I shook my head. She don't know how to take a no and just go on with her day like I said I don't know if I'm coming, leave it right there.

"I'll be here.." Cruddy said looking up from his plate.

"Shut the fuck up nigga.." I said smacking him in the back of the head, he smacked his lips and mugged me as I laughed.

"Ima smack the whole shit out you.." He said.

"Yeah, I hear you.." I replied.

Nigga wasn't gon do shit.

We walked up on the porch and I sighed before knocking on the door, nobody came. I started banging on the door but still nobody answered the door. I knew she was here because her car was outside but nobody answered the door.

"Yo, I'm finna break in her house.." I said looking at Cruddy who was standing next to me eating some chips, he nodded his head. "Give me something to break in with, what the fuck.."
