VI.

I gave up on trying to find Gunnah. Ever since Candace walked into my life my mind has just been at peace. I think I finally found a girl that’s worth my time. I got me a rider, and she would ride until the wheels fell off. Or, so I hoped.

It’s been a month and two weeks since Montrell was killed and my relationship with Candace was going steady. Once she found out my brother had passed she did everything in her power to calm my nerves. She basically lives with me. She sleeps by my side at night and wakes me when I have nightmares. Whenever I can’t sleep, she’s up too listening to me get so many things off my chest. She holds me while she listens and comforts me. A couple of times I found myself crying on her chest. Every morning, she wakes up early and fixes me food to eat. When I come home, dinner is ready and sometimes she even runs me a bath and washes my body.

This girl really knows how to cater to her man and it doesn’t stop there. She provides for me as much as I provide for her. She keeps food in the house, clothes on my back, and shoes on my feet, just like I do for her. She never comes at me with no drama, but then again I never give her anything to worry about. I’m as loyal to her as a brand new puppy is to his owner. I don’t have to worry about her either because I know she holds it down for me. I think I’m really starting to fall for this girl.

It was Thursday afternoon, Romello and Kendale had come over this morning to talk business and now we were all chillin’ watching highlights of the playoffs on my big screen, getting ready to light another blunt. Kendale had become part of our crew now, he was cool in my book and I quickly came to realize why Montrell wanted to hang out with him. The boy was smart. He was barely in school but he made straight A’s, but like me the streets got a hold of him. He started in the streets younger than me, standing on the corner at six years old. Not selling, but learning the game so he could sell. He started selling at eight and it’s been that way ever since. Now he’s twenty years old, basically born and raised by the streets.

“Look bruh, Lebron traveled his ass off,” he said pointing at the screen. “He took three steps before he put the ball down and they didn’t even call it.”

“Of course, they let that man go,” I said. “What do you expect?”

Romello handed me the blunt to light it. I haven’t been smoking nearly as much since I met Candace. I’m almost always with her and she doesn’t smoke so out of a courtesy to her, I try not to smoke around her. This was the first blunt I’ve had in a while.
