" damn it's hot as a bitch" Black rubbing the towel down his face.

He wasn't lying either. It felt like the sun was directly on us.

" yo what's ya plans for the weekend"

" nothing man just chilling" I said closing the hood of the car I was working on.

" oh cool you should come to my party it's gone be lit food,drinks, even weed" black said laughing.

The weed sounded tempting but I know I couldn't do that.

" thanks man but imma have to see"

" why you gone be busy with yo girl" he wiggling his eyebrows.

This fool play all day.

" Nawl man just gotta makesure I ain't got any other events to tend to"

I thought about Nia. Normally I'll probably chill at her spot.

" aight bruh"

" excuse me but are you almost done with my car" this older woman said approaching black.

He had his own car he was working on.

" excuse me miss but it's gone be a sec "

" A sec ? I been waiting for an hour it shouldn't take this long "

I saw his nose flare up. He was getting mad.

" the reason it's taking long is because of this old ass system, you need to buy a new one and then maybe it wont take long"

The lady mouth went open.

Black has no filter on his mouth which half of the reason James be ready to fire him.

" I'm telling James about you just wait right here"

I laughed once she was out of sight.

" you is hell man" I said to him.

" so she gone get mad at me because I'm trying to fix her raggedy mess and it's hot as hell"

" oh God Black what did you tell Ms. Rose"

" her shit is old and she need to have patience" he said working on it.

Like I said the man don't be giving a damn what come out his mouth.

" Black I swear I'm soo close to firing yo ass. These are customers ofcousre you are going to have some complaining deal with it and apologize for it" James said shaking his head.

" I did deal with it, and I'll be damn if I apologize to the old hag"

" boy I sw- .... just finish the car before she reports us again" James said sighing.

" I swear I'm soooo done with this job"

" just finish the car man" I said to him

Me on the other hand. I never had no customer complaint.

******************
" well everything looks fine Mr. Jennings, I'll be getting in touch with you next month" My p.o said to me.

" thanks man" I got up from the seat heading out the office.

I have to meet with him twice a month for the next 10 years.

It sucks but at least I ain't in no jail cell.

I felt my phone ringing to see who it was.

" so chicken or beef ?" She asked me

" chicken but it depends on the meal" I said licking my lips.
