“What? How? Who’s? When? I don’t…” I started.

“Believe it?”

“Yeah… Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Same reason you didn’t tell me.” She said.

I looked away, the way she said it kinda hurt.

“By who Danny?” I asked still looking away.

“Von…”

“What!” I yelled looking back at her.

She nodded slowly. I was stunned, I didn’t even know those two were seeing eachother at one point. This had my head spinning. Even though me and Ricky were a secret people always kind of thought there was an “Us”. But Von and Danny? Who would have thought that?

“Are you joking? You two don’t even hang out like dat.” I said.

It was true too. Whenever one was around it seemed like the other went missing. They never even really liked eachother.

“I wanted it that way. It only happened twice though. The first time he came over and the second time I went over there. I didn’t know I was pregnant until like the fourth week…” She paused. “I told Von about it and he gave me the money for an abortion. He didn’t even ask me if I wanted to keep it… Just gave me the money. So I got one and I stopped dealing with him.” She said. She sounded sad talking about it.

“I’m sorry Danny.”

I pulled her into a hug. “Did you fall for him?” I asked.

“Too hard…” She said letting the tears fall onto my shoulder.

That made me hug her tighter. This was a night I would always remember… The night my best friend and me came out with out deepest secrets to eachother. This was definitely a night I would never forget.

We both pulled away and looked at eachother tear stained faces.

She laughed first and then I laughed.

“We look like a bunch of old ass women.” I said.

I wiped my face off again. “Shit I feel like one… This is crazy.”

We stood up. “Funny how a week ago this conversation would have never taken place…”

“I know right…” She agreed. “So… how was Ty?”

I laughed. I was glad she had changed the subject. “Fantabulas! Whew, he had me screamin girl!”

She started laughing. At the moment the weight had been lifted and I felt better.

“So… Nobody knows… ya know, about this. Except you…” I said hoping she was getting where I was going with this.

She nodded. “And nobody else will.”




I got up early the next morning and got dressed. I decided that while I was here I should get on the internet and start looking for a job.

Cotton Candy…

Hiring!

“Yes!” I screamed.

I filled out the online application and turned to see Danny looking at me like I was crazy.

“What the fuck? Why you up so damn early screamin and shit?” She said looking pissed.

“My bad, That store Cotton Candy hiring and I just filled out a application.”

“Oh… why you want a job?”

I looked at her like she was crazy. “Why? What chu mean why? So I can make some bread! Why? Psssh! Girl please.”

She rolled her eyes. “Whatever. What time is it?”

I looked at the computer screen. “8:03a.m.”

Her eyes popped out. “Are you serious?”

“As a heart attack.” I replied not looking up.

“Ugh! I’m finna go get dressed. It aint no way I’m gon be able to go back to sleep.”

“Girl you need to wake ya lil ass up anyway! You don’t wanna get a job wit me?”

“Nah, I’m gon have to pass on that. You go head.” She said walking out the room. I shrugged and continued what I was doing.

My cell phone started lighting up and vibrating. “New message” popped up on the screen.

I looked at the phone and it had come from Ricky’s phone.

Huh?

My heart leapt with excitement and fear at the same time. Then I felt myself acting crazy.

“Get a grip on yourself Kiki. He’s dead.” I said to myself.

My hands were shaking as I opened the message.

“You next bitch! As well as erybody who was affiliated wit dat punk ass nigga!”

I dropped my phone and screamed. I felt the tears burning at my eyes but I wouldn’t let them drop. I was angrier than scared. More hurt than afraid. More pissed and aggravated than upset.

Danny ran into the room and looked at me with wide eyes.

“What happened?”

I pointed to the phone and she went over and picked it up. I guess the first thing she saw was Ricky’s name because she had the same excitement on her face that I had. Then I saw her scrolling… her face changed almost as fast as mine had.

“What the fuck? Who the fuck do he think he playin wit? Man hell no!”

She got her phone out her pocket and dialed somebody number.

“You not gon’ believe this shit!”

She paused.

“Dat dude who shot Ricky playin phone tag. He sent Kiki some retarded ass message talkin’ bout some ‘you next bitch. As well as anybody who was affiliated wit dat punk ass nigga’!”

She paused.

“Okay.”

She handed me the phone.

“Hello?” I said curious as to who it was.

“He fuckin wit chu?”

I realized it was shugg. “I don’t know what he trynna do. All I know is he just sent me dis shit from Ricky phone number!”

Shugg paused. “We bout to blast his ass tonight. Don’t be outside late or nuffin like dat. If you outside be around people. Understand?”

I nodded like he could see me.

“Understand?” He repeated.

“Yeah… my bad.”

“Oh yeah… and don’t go home either. Man I aint feelin dat nigga Tony ery since you told me he tried to kiss you and shit. He old as shit, fuck he trynna kiss all on you fo’?”

“I don’t know… but okay.”

“I’m gon call back in a lil bit to check on yall aight?”

“Okay.”

He hung up and so did I. “What he say?” Danny said.

“Said don’t be out late and stay around a lot of people.” I said giving her back her cell phone. “He said he handlin’ it tonight.”

“He betta! I aint finna tolerate nobody playin games and shit. I ought to call ricky phone and curse his ass out!”

I just sat there not sayin’ too much. But then again, what could I say?
