Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The mallI watched the clock tick for the last 5 minutes of my shift. I was ready to get the fuck ASAP.
Soon as 9:00 hit i clocked out grabbing my bag and my check.I quickly rushed to the atm to deposit my check so i could grab something to eat on the walk home.
Yep the buses stop running to my neighborhood at 6:45 so I'm stuck walking home every night.
One i was done i walked out the door of the mall. It was darker then usual since the clocks changed. I sighed.
I looked around the parking lot noticing Meek.
He was leaned up against the hood of his car parked right outside the door like he was waiting for someone.
"How was work shawt?" He asked me
I just looked at him blankly.
I shrugged eventually causing him to smirk.
"Imma get you ta talk to me one day but come on" He said motioning for me to get in his car... again.I shook my head no quickly.
He smirked again as he stepped closer to me.
"Until you speak you gone do why i say ma so get in the car."Idk what it is but hearing him call me ma did some thanggggs to me. Meek is the only boy I've really payed any attention to. I seen him grow up on the corner basically. He was from my block so i knew of him sadly he didn't know of me until today.
I felt my feet leading me to the car. I sighed lowkey because like why the fuck this nigga being so nice?
I ain't no charity case.He shut my door getting in on his side.
"How was work mamas?" He asked like i was gonna respond.
I just shrugged while looking out the window."You hungry?" He asked
I turned my head to him quickly nodding i was fucking starving.
He smirked "aight you wanna go sit down or fast food."I thought for a second before holding up two fingers meaning fast food.
He nodded "Aight well only McDonald's and Wendy's is open one of them coo?" He asked
I nodded getting more comfortable in his seats. His car was nice and it had pretty stars on the roof. I stared up at them watching them change colors.
"You neva see that befo?" He asked me
I shook my head still looking up at the stars.
He smirked "You gone be seeing it a lot more na"I stared at him with a questioning face but he never looked my way to see. He wanted me to talk so bad he tempting my ass too but i ain't falling for it.
