It had been 2 weeks since Kanari left home to live with Sevyn and Tank. Neither her mother nor Keith tried to reach out to her, which was no surprise. Kanari honestly wanted to keep things that way.

Due to the brothers, she hasn't been down as much. There were no new cuts, and she was slowing down on smoking.

She was still working 2 jobs, her next goal was to finally get herself a brand new, paid off car. Last week, Tank and Sevyn took her to the nearest Toyota dealership, and she instantly fell In love With the '21 Toyota Camry SE.

The car was black with a glossy metallic look to it. There was red brake calipers on all 4 tires, and fresh new rims. The windows also had 15% tint on them, which she loved, she hated riding around in a fishbowl.

From the blind eye, the car looked brand new and fresh out of the factory. It was slightly used and had around 7 thousand miles on it. The salesman threw Kanari a deal, 13,500 with no interest.

Since she had been saving since 16, she already had 10 thousand set to the side just for the car.

Sevyn offered to pay for the remaining balance, but she had already took one too many handouts from him. She felt as if staying in his house without paying any rent was more than enough.

Getting up from the bed in her new room, she walked to the bathroom across the hall. Looking into the mirror, she spoke the positive affirmations that her therapist sent her.

"I am beautiful. I am smart. I am worth it. I will be happy. I am happy. I am confident and always will be. I have faith, and trust in God to guide me to the right path." Taking a deep breath, she looked away from the mirror, and turned on the shower water.

About 15 minutes later, Kanari got out of the shower, beginning to get ready for the day.

Taking care of her basic hygiene needs, she went to go pick out her outfit for the day.

Settling on something basic, she picked out a plain, black, Nike tracksuit. She paired that with some fresh white forces, as well as her black Moose Knuckle coat.

Knocking on Tank's door, she waited for him to respond before opening the door.

"Good mornin' bug!"

"Top of the mornin to ya!" Making the two cringe at the statement she just said.

"You so corny bro. You ready to go?" He asked with a slight smile.

Kanari just nodded her head and followed Tank out to his skyscraper gray 330i BMW (An eighteenth birthday gift from Sevyn). Tank being the courteous man he is, he opened Kanari's door for her. He allowed her to get comfortable before closing the door.

Before his mother passed away, she always taught him and Sevyn to be courteous, have manners, and exceed the bare minimum. Thankfully, both boys held onto her advice as they went through life.

Making his way to the driver's side of his car, he opened the door to wipe the leftover weed crumbs out of his seat.

"Man, I gotta stop rollin' up in hea'. If I ain't findin' weed particles, I'm findin' Dutch wrappers." He said shaking his head.

Kanari nodded her head and agreed with her bestfriend. "I'm sayin tho'! I could've sworn we threw away all those Dutch wrappers. I think Casper innis' bitch smoking and leaving his leftovers behind."
