Chapter 61:
A boring life at school, or maybe....
While waiting for them, we were rapping but like telling stories of our own. When Hardware arrive, Mariam instantly jump out from the truck while Hardware called her
“hey this is Compton!! Gotta be careful!!”
“i lived in Harlem, I do understand about the hood!!” Mariam heads out to the graffiti
“This art is sick!!!! Who make this!!”
One of my homie introduce himself and explain about the art.
“Hey you look familiar!!? God damn!! Its Mariam!!!” She is famous in this part of neighbourhood…
“Hey!! Good job!!” She thumbs up at me, and hug me while Amin is really out of place.
“Shit, Honey!! What the hell!! This is getting too much for me to absorb…”
“Ah Honey now this is home!!” Naomi introduce herself to Mariam but with a hug.
“Thank you for bringing my boy back!!” Mariam look confused
“Uh Alex….”
“Yeah…this is Naomi, the one that I talk about…”
“Uh huh…” Amin looked at me
“Bro, still the playboy again?”
“uh whatever!!”
All that commotion ended with Naomi calling everyone to celebrate.
“Alright!! Here is dinner for all people here. Damn she is making hotdogs!! But I can’t eat it though. Naomi then asked me
“Why you haven’t eaten anything…” I forgot Naomi doesn’t know that I’m a muslim.
“Uh…because of our religion..”
“Uh huh…then” she give us something that we could eat, mash potato. We take it and explain to Mariam
“Did you know, that Alex here is a hard drinker, whiskey, vodka, gin, tonic, even beer when he was in 102…”
“Oh really…eh? Now I understand how the heck you not even scared of people or even work in that cafe..eh?”
“Uh huh….” Shit Naomi don’t bare me naked.
“Plus, he did has feelings for me though..” Amin and Mariam is staring at me and while grinning at me
“Oh he did eh…” please Naomi this is getting awkward by the minute.
“Oh here is the keys..” She gave me my old home keys.
“Hey Mar, I told ya I’ve got it done…” Mariam and Amin hugged me
“Nice!!” Amin then saw my bike but he doesn’t know about it
“That is some sick bike there, a Cagiva Mito…just like what you said before right?”
“Uh….” Naomi suddenly interrupt
“That is his bike…”
“What!!!! Seriously!!”
“Yeah, yeah… oh I’ve got another bike, you’ve gotta follow me got it…”
“Hey don’t left me behind while you having fun right here!!”
But I need to meet with Naomi personally.
“Hey Naomi I need something from you…”
“By the looks of it, maybe its time is it?”
“yeah…”
“Then come to my place then…”
We entered the house, while Hardware were force to join the drinking contest, but this time the scene between me and Naomi change, and the air between me and Naomi also turn to serious moments.
“Its about Damien right?”
“yeah…”
“He did come here…”
“When?”
“A Few months ago…”
“…….shit that’s the time….”
“Damien you mean the brotha that visit you in the hospital?”
“Yeah…”
“Hospital…?”
“Yeah…long story…”
“Well I’m here for the night…” I explain what happen after the incident with Darrel until the day I met with Damien.
“Damn…I never knew you went through all that…” Naomi
“Bro…” Amin is really showing sympathy at me while Mariam hugged me
“Dumb Nat….” Mariam were looking sad at me.
Naomi gave a long pause while looking for an answer.
“Alex….I will help you but you got to help me…”
“Yeah?”
“Its about my little sister…” oh ya I forgot that she has a younger sister
“She is about the same age as you…”
“Then what happen to her?”
“we had a fight before this 3 months at the same time encounter with Damien. She wanted to be strong and independent. But I don’t agreed with her methods.”
“Which is…”
“Drop out of school and join the production business…”
“What business…?” Naomi could not said it something strange right now.
“She doesn’t know it yet but she wanted to join with Gale’s”
“Gale…isn’t that the gang is already disband?”
“He owns a strip club…”
“Don’t tell me….”
“Yeah a stripper….”
“shit…” I gotta help her, she help me during my time.
“Fine I’ll help but not for the rewards but for the days that you help me back on my feet even though it wasn’t a good thing though at least I manage to survive thanks to you Naomi…”
“Yeah thanks Alex…” Naomi is like a big sister to me though but the taught of having sex with just because I wanted to know the feeling of it dammit!!
It was a short pause at the moment, Hardware was drunk as fuck.
“Holy shit Alex!! Hardware just chug a 2 barrels of alcohol!!! Shit he is insane!!”
“No shit!!!”
“What are you planning for Mika then?”
“As long she does not went through what I went through…at least go to school…”
“I understand…I’ll see what I can do…but l need to rest though…”
“yep…here is her picture…the last time I met her..” She has a blue colored hair,, half Japanese and caucasian features just like Naomi, left side face has a small blue star tattoo, she wear an oversize t shirt and a mini skirt, her body is bottom hourglass. she has a short bob hair style.
“Got it…”
We went back to my old crib. Seems like it like the same when I was in the 90’s. Seems like my old music player is still working. With my old hip hop music.
“You’ve got some nice music here…you lived here alone?”
“yeah…it was a mess until Naomi taught me how to maintain the house…she is like a sister to me…”
“I kinda feel that vibe between you and Naomi…but damn she is hot”
“Yeah…”
“But what about her little sister…?”
“Just only a picture of her when she was young though…I think right now she is 15 this year”
“Damn…”
“Not sure what she look like though…”
“Yeah, look me and Amin will be going to the studio again…”
“Count….me….in….homie…” Hardware raise his hand. Damn he is strong
“Yeah I need your help Homie…”
“Hey….I got your back got it homie…”
“He told a lot of thing about you though….with Naomi…”
“ugh….” Don’t tell me that Hardware…
“You’re not a virgin even before with Nat is it?” HARDWARE!!!!!
“Uh….”
“Uh huh now I understand why Nat was really upset calling me before…basically its all your fault as well….”
“ah…yeah” Mariam instantly held my head
“DUMMMY!!!!! This is for Nat!!!!!” I tap my arm trying to give up. Mariam then suddenly laugh at me
“You know when Nat called me, she was extremely jealous that you had girls all around you, and she felt that you need to be mark…” I could see Amin sitting in the corner
“Shit bro…he has much more experience than anyone that I know of..”
“honey don’t get any funny ideas!!!” She knock his head. While Mariam calm down and sit down with me while Hardware is resting in the couch.
“So what about it, when are you going to meet Nat?”
“Uh…yeah….will after I settle with Damien…” I rather not to remember what I seen, its really leaving a scar in my eyes.
“Don’t tell me….you already meet her?” Is she a psychic?
“Just looking at her from a far….”
“Like a stalker….?”
“Uh….just looking got it…”
“No a real stalker, what do you see, what happen to Nat?”
“She look hot…the nerdy looks from her….”
“then….?” She is really sharp
“Just that what the hell you want from me then…”
“You not telling me everything….”
“uh….you could say…she is dating with someone…”
“Huh!!! That stupid babe!!!! I told her not to do anything stupid!!! Then just that?” She really is a psychic
“a…kiss…” Mariam instantly turn a yandere
“That bitch!!! I really warn her about this….wait till I get her…”
“Uh hahaha…” Mariam hugged me and said to me
“Then you don’t want to meet her?”
“Bro, this is your chance to meet her…”
“Yeah I know….but once I’m not settle with Damien, she is not safe…I’ve got a feeling that she is connected with this Damien stuff.”
“Got it then…Honey?”
“Alex…me and Honey will continued on with my audition and shows, but once we free we meet again got it…”
“Hardware will help ya…”
“yeah…”
“Well then, I’m really tired going to bed…” Mariam took my bed while me and Amin is sleeping anywhere that is comfortable.
I lie down and started to think how the hell am I suppose to convince a person that already wanted to be that.
