"yo baby get it up it's 5:45 you gonna be late for work." Pooh said shaking meek to wake him up out of his sleep. Meek pulled the covers over his head and turned so his back would face her.
"i ain't going."
"what you mean you ain't going?" she said frustrated. They had bills and she was pulling 10hr shifts 4days a week just to pay for the rent alone . North philly might of been hood, but them houses weren't cheap. 1000$ for just a two bedroom, 1 bath home. She was only making 15$ an hour. She needed his help plus , she had recently found out she was pregnant but hadn't shared the news with him yet.
"i said i ain't going .i ain't doing that shit. they wanna pay me 10$ an hour for 8 hrs to lay some damn pipes . i'm better off selling dope off a street corner."
"so that's what you wanna do ? sell drugs ? end up back in jail ? you're pathetic." she said swinging the covers off her and getting out of the bed. "i'm so tired of this shit Rihmeek ! i'm tired of struggling , i wanna better myself . It's been the same shit for the past 3 years. pay check to pay check and this damn rap career you keep claiming you're gonna get. you think cus you win a lil bit of chump change from battling these fools on a street corner you're gonna make it. SIKE! get a real fucking job and let that shit go.! she screamed.
"aight bet. ima remember you said that shit too pooh & when i get rich don't text my phone on no dumb shit cus remember what you said. you neva have faith in me , you want me to be like these niggas and work 9-5 slaving for the white man. ima business man and you kno that."
"a business man ? meek you battle rap n hustle . aint shit business about that." she rolled her eyes . "i'm staying at my moms tonight." she threw him the only key they shared and walked out the bedroom. He shook his head. Looked down at the key and whispered to him self "just watch shorty."
