Rihanna- Bird- Fenty
"Ayo Bird, nigga where you going man?" There she was again, walking alone clutching her bag tightly to her chest.
I ignore my nigga Tommy as he shouts out at me, I proceeded with following the strange girl as she walked fast.
That has been my new routine for a week, I know it may seem weird but I wanted to make sure she makes it safe, a lot of my niggas in these streets are ruthless. She would be the newest fresh meat
"Why do you keep on following me?" I heard a voice that interrupted my thoughts, the girl was standing in the middle of the streets facing me. But I was still a distance away
"Do you want my purse? I have nothing but stationary in it. Please... I just want to make it home" she said as I got closer to her. I've never been so close to her, I've only seen her from a distance
"Are you new in this neighborhood? Why don't you have someone come fetch you from school?" I asked ignoring her previous statement
The more I made it closer to her, I realized that she was trembling. I took off my jacket and put over her shoulders while she stared at me in silence
"I moved here about two weeks ago" she was staring in my eyes, I didn't like her eyes on mine but I couldn't dare look elsewhere
"How are you liking the hood?" I asked smiling slightly, she looked me weirdly for a while then a little smile appeared on her face. We proceeded with walking
"It's... different from what I'm used to but I guess I can't really judge it until I know all of it" I nodded listening
"And what it is that you're used to? if you don't mind me asking" I said smiling at her, if my niggas saw me like this...
"Houston" she said,
"Oo so you a country girl, oudy girl" I did my impersonation of country people and she broke out the most adorable laughter
"That's NOT how we talk!!" She said laughing, I chuckled softly.
We continued talking while I walked her home, suddenly she stopped and turned to me smiling
"Well this is my stop, thank you for walking me" she said, I stuffed my hands in my pockets looking at her
She took off my jacket and handed it back to me "see you again Texas" I said watching her walking in her building.
