My mom was cooking baked chicken, stuffed potatoes and greens. I loved when she
made food like this. She knew that was my favorite. I was upstairs when I heard my mom asking
for me to come downstair. I was upstairs on face-time with my best friend. She starting talking
about that light-skin boy she was flirting with today at school. You know us girls, always down
for a little tea. When I came downstairs to see what she wanted my mom asked me to go to the
store on the corner because she needed butter for the potatoes. Dam I honestly didn't feel like
walking no where. I was in leggings and a tank top with pink slides on. Those were my
comfortable outfit, something I always put on when I get home from school and just be chilling
with my best friend.
Mom: "Kia we need butter baby, please go to the store"
Kia: "all right i'll go"
I only went because I got the type of mom that give you money for the items she need and
she give you money for you to get something. It's like she pay you, to go to the store. So I went
upstairs and got my headphones and head to the store. I stayed on the phone with my best
friend on the phone the whole way there. I didn't want to just be walking down the street bored
because sometimes that can be awkward. As always it's thugs in front of the store doing
nothing like they always do. I hate walking pass they ass every time I want something from the
store. Like dam, you not the security guard, so take your ass home. That shit is annoying having
to ask them to move. But I notice it was one that I never seen before and he stood out. I mean in
a good way. I couldn't help but notice his sexy ass. I was whispering on face-time with my best
friend about him. I turned the camera around to show her his face and this bitch phone went
died. While I was waiting behind this older lady to buy her beer, I will look at him when he not
looking at me, but when he look at me, thats when I turn my head. You know what I mean ladies.
I gave him a smile as I walked out the store, he smiled back. I notice his white teeth and waves
before anything. When I start walking back to the house , he followed. I looked back to get
another look at him but he was right there so I stop walking. At first I was think; this dude better
not try to kidnap me. But I stopped to hear him talk. He was a smooth talker and easy on the
eyes. He seem like the type to have hella girlfriends in different places. He walked on the side of
me asking me hella questions I didn't want to answer to but it's was okay because he sexy. He
was 24 but I didn't mind because he was the same height as me and looked like a high school
student. I told him I was 17, he didn't give a dam about me being 17. Dude nowadays date any
pretty female they can get their hands on , and I was okay with his age so it all worked out. I gave
him my number and he gave me his number.
When I got to the house he called me, and we started talking about each other past.
James wasn't just anybody, he was 5'8 like me, chocolate smooth skin, light brown eyes and he
must had money because he was driving a car worth 50,000. I guess selling dope was something
that worked well for him. Not all niggas I know, that drive nice cars like him and sell weed at the
same time. He was on the phone with me the whole night, telling me about his lifestyle. We will
talk on the phone all day, everyday. He told me how he have a job but sell weed as a side hustle,
which is something I understand because you can't never have enough money in America. When
I went to school I'll be texting him in every class. Telling him all about Mr. Ay fat ass and how I
cant stand his class. After school I'll call him and talk my whole walk home while i'm also
walking home with my best friend. It start getting to the point where my best friend was getting
mad that I spent all my time on the phone and not talking to her. I didn't want her to feel like i'm
putting a nigga before her because that wasn't my intentions. I start think she was getting
jealous for a little because she use to me being the lonely one, but now that I finally start talking
to someone, she want to start acting funny. By acting funny, she will not speak to me when i get
on the phone with James. Me and James only been talking on the phone for 1 month and my
best friend don't like him. She don't like the idea of me talking to him without nobody know
about him. I told her about him but I didn't tell her about his crazy thug lifestyle because it
wasn't her business. He told me to keep us a secret and don't let anyone know about us talking
because he can get in trouble. I knew he could get in trouble for talking to a minor, so when I told
my best friend about him, I said the little things, about how we meet, his name and where he
from but I never mentioned his age or what he do for a living.
Me and my best friend always hanging out none stop , nothing will get in the way of us
hanging out, thats my bitch , I will just be on the phone with James. The look on her phone
when I say James is calling tell me that she don't want me to answer the phone but I do anyway.
He knew when to call because I told him everything like a dumbass. When you been friends with
someone for a long time, you know how they act when they're mad. I told her that I can't tell my
mom about James because she will want to meet him and that's something I can't let happen.
My mom is smart and she will look at him and guess that he is from the streets. The niggas at my
school look more hood then him but thats my opinion. He will call me in the morning right
before i get dress from getting out the shower before school but I'll hide the conversation from
my parents. He was a freak too, he will ask me to send naked pictures from the shower to his
phone. What type of bitch he think I am, i'm never dumb enough to send nudes to a nigga
phone, thats how you get caught up and your pictures end up on somebody porn site. Nope ,
couldn't do that. He didn't mind sending dicks pictures, he sent them every morning saying
goodmorning sexy.
He will be texting me during class and sometimes the teacher will ask to keep my phone
until class over. No one but my best friend knew about him at this point. My mom will always
ask me who I'm on the phone with day and night but I just smile and say someone special . She
knew then that I was talking about a boy. My mom wasn't in my business a lot as long as I didn't
come home telling her i'm pregnant or moving out. Every time she seen me on the phone with
him she will say hi someone special, that always make me laugh. My mom didn't know nothing
about James and thats how I wanted to keep it. The thing that made me worried was the fact my
mom think I'm talking to a boy at school. I assume she thought James was from my school. The
last thing she'll expect is for me to be talking to a 24 year old man. Good thing I had a lock on my
phone, I wouldn't even tell my best friend about the dick pictures he be sending because she
will think we fucking. What your mom don't know, wouldn't hurt her.
Things with me and James start going well very fast. It has only been 4 months of us
talking everyday and sending pictures. James told me that I need to start hanging out with him
and I was down. He texted me saying that he wanted to see me Saturday. I told my mom that I
was spend a night at my best friend house. Even though my best friend wasn't feeling me
hanging out with James, she still lied to my mom for me, by telling her I'm spending a night at
her house. See this is why I loved her, I told you she be having my back and always there for me. I
meet James at the store we meet from and he pulled up in a 2017 Dodge Charger RT cherry red
with white and black seats on the outside. This was a nice as car, I had to say. He gave me a hug
and grab my ass a little. We wasn't having sex yet but we will kiss and lay under each other
watching tv. James had his own place and kept it looking nice. I told him It was only 4 months
and I didn't want to have sex with him that early.
I wonder what type of job he has but I never ask because I knew he was a drug dealer. I
thought I was the shit fucking with him. I had the finest nigga on the block. Nobody can stop my
shine, not my parent , best friend or any other girl. We start hanging out every Saturday and I
will tell my best friend to lie for me and she will do it for me. I was doing this for 6 months every
Saturday. He was buying me food and bring it to school and I will share it with my best friend.
When he pulled up my best friend will say hi but only to be nice, knowing dam well she didn't
like him. This was the only time they will see each other, and they had a short conversation
when they first meet, but it was just hi and bye. I can see it in her face that she didn't want me
talking to him but she didn't know him like I did. James was a sweet person, he go all out his
way for people and they don't do the same for him. He had a hard life growing up, his mom was
a crackhead and she didn't want him when he turned 7 so she gave him up for adoption. It was 8
months now that me and James has been seeing each other and keeping us a secret. Things
start moving fast with me and James. My best friend didn't like the fact I go to his house she will
tell me that all the time. James said she will say that shit. My best friend will always tell me to
keep it fun in the open. I just thought maybe she was getting jealous and wanted what I got but
that wasn't true. She was right, I put my feelings into James which is something I should've
never done.
