I rubbed the top of my head in annoyance as I pulled into the gas station and parked. Today is not my day. Everybody been getting on my damn nerves since I woke up. First, one of the lil young niggas I had working for me sold to an undercover cop and got arrested. So now I had to deal with that situation. Then Rita weird ass was blowing up my phone sending me off the wall messages. I'm just not in the mood today. I need a blunt.
"Wassup youngin." Kev, the owner, greets me once I enter. He's watched me and Christian grow up. In a way he's like our fake grandfather.
"Wassup old man." I nod before grabbing my usual snacks and a pack of woods. I pay then return to my car to pump the gas. As I'm doing so, I get a call from a random number. I don't really answer unknown numbers but it could've been about the kid in jail so I picked up.
"Yo."
"Aye Chris, this Metro."
"Oh wassup bro?" I speak back into the receiver, a lil confused as to why he's hitting me. I haven't talked to bro in a few weeks since Nay and I went to the studio. I honestly forgot all about it. I've had more important shit to worry about.
"Bruh, I got some good news. I sent your track to my homeboy Mustard who works with a lot of famous artist and Lil Wayne wants to be on your Loyal record. That shit crazy ain't it!?"
"You forreal?" I felt like he was playing me. Lil Wayne wanna hop on my song? Lil Ole me? I wasn't even taking the singing shit seriously.
"Deadass! He said you're talented and it's a dope song. You need to slide thru the Stu tonight so we can all talk business. This a big deal my dog. If the song takes off you finna be rich my guy!"
"For sure. I got some business to handle but I'll slide by in a hour."
"Bet."
The call ended and I slide into the drivers side of my car. I quickly went to my contacts and clicked on Anayla's name, hoping she picks up. I had to share with her what I'd just found out but of course her ass didn't answer. I figured she's at work or practice.... or probably just ignoring me as usual. Baby can hold a grudge. I know what I did was fucked up but sheesh, thought we'd bounce back by now. But she's been out here running around with her new friend.
I drove around, making a few drops then stopped by my house to change before I went to the studio. When I walked in, Ne was cooking and it instantly made my stomach growl. Metro could wait.
"Hey sis."
"Hey lightbright, where ya been?" Jhene asks, giving me a quick side hug.
"Working, what you making?" I ask while leaning over to look inside the pan on the stove. Shrimp Alfredo, mmm mmm mm.
