I was chilling at the house when I got a text from my brother Idris telling me to bring his second camera to his car. I knew he wasn’t outside the house because he’d told me earlier he was filming a YouTube video. I threw on some Nike Pros, a pink hoodie, and my pink Crocs, then headed to the deli he said he was parked in front of.

When I got there, I walked sleepily up to his window and knocked. Idris rolled the window down, and I handed him the camera.

“We got sister Majooo in the cut, y’all,” Idris said, turning the camera toward me, making me squint my eyes from the bright light and wave.

He turned the camera to the two lightskin boys one sitting in the passenger seat, the other in the middle of the backseat—before looking back at me.

“You wanna get in the car? You prolly don’t wanna walk home,” he said.

“Yeah, I’ll get in. I’m finna go to the deli first,” I told him.

He nodded, rolling the window back up as I walked inside the deli. While I was in there, he texted me asking me to grab some things for him. I bought what I wanted first, then got what he asked for. After paying, I took my bonnet off, finger-combed my straightened hair, and tucked some of it behind my ear before heading back to the car.

I knocked on his window again, handed him the snacks, and then got into the backseat. The lightskin boy in the middle scooted over slightly to give me more room. I looked over at him and gave a soft smile, and he smiled back before I turned my attention to the two in the front.

Idris was yapping with the boy in the passenger seat while the one next to me was rolling up. I found myself watching his hands as he worked, but looked away when he noticed me staring.

“I forgot to introduce y’all this is DD and Ddot.”Idris said pointing at the two.

They both waved, and I waved back before Idris went back to talking for the video. I pulled out my phone, but then Ddot tapped my shoulder and handed me the blunt. I took it, inhaling deeply, and we passed it back and forth until it was finished. Eventually, Idris and DD got out of the car, leaving me and Ddot in the back. We chilled, and after a bit, I stretched my legs over him making sure he was cool with it first. He rested his hand on my leg, and we started talking, really getting to know each other. I was feeling him he was a chill person.

“Look, can you do me a favor?” Ddot asked.

“Fasho, wsp?” I replied.

“Can you help me make my ex jealous? You mad pretty, and I’m jackin’ you,” he said.
