"Just let me hear it Zuri, I never got to hear you sing in person before. Plus everybody else got to hear before me that's not fair." Rollie pouted leaning her head on to my shoulder, I'm currently chilling with Rollie in her room at the Baddies house.
Tommie left two days ago for business and left me here with no way home or money so I just been kicking it with the girls. See when I first met Tommie everything was glitz and glamor, I was young and dumb but what can I say.... I was a broke High school graduate with only a car and a few dollars to my name. Tommie would always buy me things, make sure I was alright even took me in I guess that's where I went wrong.
"Fineee." I jokingly finally give in to her, she claps excitedly passing me the blunt.
"Ok so this is a new song I'm working on right now, right now I'm leaning on calling it "Work Song" for now." I say pulling up the beat that I made on my phone, letting the first few seconds roll in I clear my throat to prepare.
"Mmm, mmm, mmm," I harmonize before going into the first verse, as Rollie sat and listened while watching me intently smiling slightly.
"Boys workin' on empty
Is that the kinda way to face the burnin' heat? I just think about my baby
I'm so full of love, I could barely eat
There's nothin' sweater than my baby
I'd never want once from the cherry tree
'Cause my baby's sweet as can be
She'd give me toothaches just from kissin' me
I sung out in a low mellow tone, tapping my knee and foot to match the beat.
"What?" I ask her when her jaw drops, she smacks me lightly on the shoulder in shock.
"Your voice is amazing Y/N! Why don't you ever drop any of this, people would might really fuck with it." Gia hyped me up me lighting the blunt.
"I don't know G, you know how I feel about fame and shit... my anxiety can't handle that." I lie something I've become familiar with these last few years, something I can do with ease because of circumstances I'm always put in.
"It's cause of Tommie? You let her control your life too much boo." Rollie shakes her head rolling her eyes, out of nowhere my stomach growls loud as fuck.
"When the last time you ate, you been cooped in this room for two days now." She asks looking at me concerned.
"When Tommie left.... She ain't leave me no money so yeah." I finally admit I can't take it anymore I'm starving to death literally, I've only had a few bites of food whenever the girls had some and offered me a bite to try.
"Why would she need to leave you money, I'm confused right now?" She questioned me again.
"S-she controls the money, I can't touch it." I say nervously quickly regretting it, when I notice her face contort in anger.
"I said too much, I-I should g-go." I quickly ran out the room, leaving her alone before she could call for me.
2 days later
"I didn't say anything to her I swear!" I yell back at her frustrated that she won't drop it.
"So why the fuck they in my business, asking me bout shit thats going on under my roof!" Tommie walk closer to me with her face balled up, I could already tell she was drunk as fuck. I could smell the liquor seeping out of her pores.
