"Did i jack my curls?" He took his phone out and checked

"Code Dread!! On your six!" He whispered yelled.

That could only mean-

"Hey! You guys going to orientation??"

Jasmine..

"My cousin Berto's daughter, Letty? Yeah she said it aint nothing serious, I mean unless you're stupid and can't spell you know?"

The three of them speed up and once I notice I try to catch up

"Hey slow down, I got asthma remember??"

"Sorry Jas private convo, talk later!" Monse grabs the guys and Ruby pulls me along.

Suddenly her footsteps could be hear behind us causing us all to run, Jasmine not too far behind.

I checked behind us once we got far enough . "We're good"

"She's relentless" Jamal joked.

"Good save" Ruby heaved, trying to catch his breath

"You aint safe" Monse brought us back to ground Cesar.

"Your threats arent penetrating, Im not telling you want he said"

I smiled. "So you admit he said something Jay?"  Monse grinned with me once we caught why he said.

"Dude, do you need a muzzle?" The smaller groaned.

"Listen , no offense but Monse.. You're a loose cannon and Y/n you like gasoline. You just add to her flames"

"I don't know if I'm more offended about the fact that you basically called me her accessory or that you just insinuated imma shit starter." I joked as if I was appalled.

"Listen you know it's true"  Jamal laughed

I shrugged "Maybe I like entertainment " I retort.

"Anyways this is for Monse's protection"

"If thats the case why can't I know? Yall protecting her, not me"

"Because You'll tell Monse, and then try to kick someone's ass"

"Fair enough." I  can't do shit about that

"No, not fair enough.. My own protection??" Monse scoffed

"Eat a Dick." She snapped

"Case in point." Ruby stated
"Yall don't even know and Monse is already at Defcon Solange"

I broke out chuckling. That was funny I gotta admit

"And with Y/n in the mix it's a matter of time before we reach Defcon Lefteye"

We continued strolling, catching a guy getting jumped into 19th street

I glanced over before having Jamal put me and Monse in between him and Ruby.

"Don't look" He urged us to keep it pushing and so we did

Once we got passed them we spread out again

"Why would anyone wanna join 19th street? If it were me I'd get jumped into 1st street. only one second of pain" Jamal was freaked and uncomfortable

"Right who needs a lifetime of commitment at our age?" Ruby added

"Agreed" I chimed in.

"Wow you too? Damn a lack of commitment is a noticeable trend in this group" Monse quipped.

"Listen, come at them not me. I'm still out of the loop too--"

Music played, cutting me off as it boomed.

A red '67 impala came into view

Oscar.

"We cant tell you what he said" Ruby had pleasing eyes that we just let it go but Monse wasnt budging.

"Fine, We'll go ask then." She linked arms with me and we made our way to the older Diaz's car.

"Are yall crazy??!" Oscar yelled as we stood in front of the car. We walked to his window.

"Just wanted to tell Cesar I was back" Monse stood awkwardly.

Oscar looked at her. "and Looking like fine ass hyna"

"Underaged hynas, by the way" I add

"Not for some."

I gagged as he spoke "Havent you been to prison already? You know how they get with mfs who go at minors. Watch yourself"

"Its all good Y/n. She just looks different. What is it?"

Monse covered her chest and I was in the right mind to fight a gangbanger. Dumb idea but adrenaline makes you a crazy bitch full of dumb ideas.

"Nah..You got your braces off.." He smiled as he and his friends began to chuckle

I rolled my eyes at him  "Yo get the fuck on." They then drove off.

Ruby wrapped his jacket around Monse shoulders as Jamal gave me his to tie around my waist.

"When did Spooky get out?"

"Six weeks ago" I told her

"Makes sense, Whatever Cesar said, he was trying to impress his bonehead brother. He's terrified of him"

"Along with everyone else" Jamal admitted

I shook my head "I aint everyone." They stared and laughed at me

"Okay fuck yall, just remember I'm the one the kicked asses for all three of yall."

"Just drop it Monse" Ruby droned.

I could tell he was tired of this back and forth

"Do i look like I can drop it?" Obviously being rhetorical

"You do, you just won't" Jamal stated matter of factly.

There was a brief silence until we heard

"TAX TIME BITCHES!"

I turned around, while Ruby curses

"Shit. Latrelle.."
