Lamar POV :

I was woken up by the sound of One call away ringer, ringing from under my pillow. Slowly I got up and pulled the phone from underneath and answered it leaning back down closing my eyes back. "Hello?" I whispered into the phone still half asleep.

"You sleep?" Nhazir asked I turned over in my bed clearing my throat trying to sound half awake.

"No I was, what's up?

"Look, baby I'm sorry aight" he apologized

"What you sorry for?"

"I'm sorry for leaving you at the movies like that for Cass earlier. I know I should have taken you home first but I promise that's the last time I leave you like that again for work." I sighed a little and stuck the phone in the crook of my neck as I got up and walked into the bathroom through the other door to my other room and sat on the couch in there.

"Look Nhazir, please don't make promises you don't know if you can keep".

"No Lamar I'm serious. Next time Cass asks I'll just say I can't right now."

"Can you really do that? Don't he like run you?" I said and he smacked his lips

"Cass doesn't run shit. He just on me hard cos I get the best jobs done for him."

"Oh."I mumbled yawning slightly "But listen can I come over so we can talk about this?" he asked I thought about it for a minute I wanted to protest but at the same time I wanted to see him,

"Aiight yeah. Come" I replied

"Aiight imma be there in about 10minutes. You want anything?

"Erm, yeah a pink Lemonade." I said with a smile in my voice. He chuckled a little a "aright" he said before hanging up the phone.

I pulled myself up from the chair and quickly ran into the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. Once that's was done I walked into my closet and pulled on one of Nhazir' hoodies that I stole from his house and fixed my mohawk , grabbed my phones and walked downstairs to tell my dad Chris was on his way, When I got downstairs I knocked on my dad's office door but there's no answer

"DAD?!" I yelled walking down the hallway to the foyer. And peaking out the window to see if his car parked in the driveway and it is which is weird. If he aint home why the hell is his car still parked. I sighed loudly and pulled my phone out of my pocket and dialed my dad's number pulling the phone up to my head. Finally after calling for a second time he answered on the last ring

"Dad, where are you?" I asked annoyed. He's always leaving the house without saying anything. Since we've moved here I can literally count on one hand the amount of times my dad has been here. And we've been here almost 2 months now.

"MarMar, I'm just on a dinner date with a few co-workers from work. I'll be home before midnight" he replied, clearing his throat slightly. I listened closely to what's going on in the background but heard no noise in the back which is weird. If he's at a restaurant I would at least be able to hear the commotion behind right?

"Mhmm." I mumbled unconvinced he cleared his throat once again. "Well can you come home earlier? Because Nhazir wants to come over"

"Erm, n-no I can't leave early Mar , this is an important date, but tell Nhazir he can come over"

"Ight thanks" I mumbled going to hang up the phone. "LAMAR," he called out before I can end the call,

"yes dad?"

"Makes sure you two stay DOWN stairs. And no funny business, do you hear me?" he warned sternly.

"Yes dad." I mumbled blankly hanging up the phone before he could say anything else . I walked into the kitchen to find something to eat. I settled for a bowl of Captain Crunch. And about 10 minutes later the door rang, I hopped off the stool and walked over to the door looking out the peephole then unlocked the door to see Nhazir standing there with his head down, and my pink lemonade in his hand he looked up and smiled a little before he handed me my drink, I moved to the side to let him in and smiled at him thankfully before shutting the door behind him. "Hey." I mumbled locking the door
