D'Anthony Carlos has skated through life always being protected. When you're related to the biggest drug cartel in the DMV you gotta be protected. When all of your uncles are the most feared and respected you automatically garner the same attention...

After spending the day working the event for Veterans Day, I retired to my apartment taking a nap. I'm now laying in my bed watching re-runs of Living Single alone. I much rather be laid up getting my booty rubbed, but I'm not. D'Anthony was acting weird when I tried to talk to him at the event in the kitchen. I mean, I know I said I wanted to keep us low in the public, but he acted like he straight up didn't wanna talk to me. Whatever...Sahara texted me asking to come over, so I was waiting for her to get here.
Ten minutes later she walking into my dark apartment because I left the door unlocked for her. "Damn, did you forget to pay your light bill? I've been there before," she says walking across my living room.
"You know I like it dark. Why make my light bill higher than it needs to be? I'm a broke college student," I say as she enters my bedroom flopping onto my bed. "Where you coming from?" I ask looking her up and down at her outfit.
"Went out with a friend," she says vaguely taking her heels off. I hear them thud as they drop to my wooden floors.
"Hm. You've been M.I.A. What's been up with you?" I ask looking at her skeptically.
"Busy with school, Black Student Union and tutoring," she explains.
"Must be since you were tutoring Gideon on a Friday," I say recalling the lie Nubia told to Markel. Of course I was being shady boots because she told Nubia she was going on a date with Gideon and not me. We're supposed to be best friends, practically sisters if I didn't have enough of those already.
"What?" She asks looking confused.
"Isn't that where you were today? That's what Nubia said," I say as fake as possible.
"Oh, yeah. I tutored him earlier today," she blatantly lies as if she knows what I'm talking about.
"Wow, you gonna lie to my face?" I say in shock. "Nubia told me you went on a date with Gideon."
Sahara sighs then she gives in by saying, "Fine! I went on one little meaningless ass date with him. I didn't wanna tell you because I knew you would talk me out of it."
"Ya damn right I would! But you already went now, so all I can do is scold you like a child. Why would you do that?"
"Because...I got some free food. It was good as hell too. I had these good ass wings and-" Sahara goes on trying to change the subject but, I cut her off.
