I scrunch up my face. " Keem, shut up. Before I pop out with a new boo" I giggle.

I walk outside his office and see Hakeem outside chopping it up with some dudes. I walk out the studio and tell him "I'm ready to go."
"Ok, go wait in the car ill be there in a minute." he says back.
I walk to Hakeems car and hop in the passenger seat. I get on my phone and post a video of me on snapchat. Hakeem opens the door and gets into car. "How was ya lil interview?"
"It was fine."
"You hungry?"
"Yea, I want some Pasta House."
"Aight".
He pulls off and drives to Pasta House.

After getting our food, Hakeem pulls up to the house. We walk in, and he goes to his room while I go to mine. I get out my plate of food and eat. When I was done eating, I watched some tv and took a nap. I awake to my phone buzzing. I look at the time 8:42 PM. I check my notification and see a text from Roddy.

I put my phone back on the charger and set my alarm for work in the morning. I watch a couple episodes of "On My Block" before I dose off.
