Being back to my hometown was bitter sweet. Nothing looked the same all the people I use to kick it with were in jail or dead. Shit was fucked up. When I touched down I needed to go straight to coach store. He and his wife ran it for years it was in the middle of the hood and no it messed with it. They had a little girl she was a few years younger then me but looked older. I remember I tried to talk to her one day and she shut me down. Told me she was sixteen and her daddy would kill both of us. She was right coach ain't play about his daughter and I was 23 so I wouldn't have even tried if I knew who's daughter that was. Later on we became friends. She was my best friend at one point in time. She was 18 and graduated so she was out living her life and we ran into each other. Shorty was really different. She wise beyond her years and she could really listen. We never took it there but it was always tension between us. We never spoke on it but for three years we kicked it kept it low key and she was my person. Then I got locked up and went ghost one her. I knew kee. She would've waited on me to get out but once I was out I left town. I felt guilty for even leaving her while I was locked up but I couldn't bring myself to call her.
I walked into the store and it smelled the same way I remembered it got a little bigger but it was the same store I remember. One stop shop.
"Kee?" I said when I saw her fine ass sitting behind the counter. Shorty was fine then but damn she was fine as fuck now. She stepped out from behind the counter. She smiled and then hit me with the hardest right hook I ever felt.
"Welcome home JoJo." She said patting my shoulder. Next thing I know two big ass kids came in calling her mom. Then this punk ass bitch Kobra came into the store. Kobra and Kee went to school together but he wasn't shit. He ain't treat her how she was suppose to be treated
"Kario and Ryker calm down why are you two here and not at your dad's house." She asked.
"We got kicked out again he cheated on the new girl and she put us all out since it's her house." One of her twins said.
"Go in the back and don't touch shit I swear I know where everything is so help me God if you touch anything those boxing gloves are gonna go on so fast." She said and they quickly ran out of sight.
"Kee." Kobra said.
"No I'm tired of you being this pop tart dad. This ends now till you can give my boys a sable living situation they can't go with you. You are the most unreliable person I have ever met. You are thirty two and can't even buy your kids shit. I swear I can't believe I married you. Speaking of marriage sign the damn papers Kobra or I'll send my love child brother over there to beat your fuckin ass till you sign them." She said cal.ly to him.
"Kee baby." I said touching her arm. She snatched my hand off of her.
"Leave both of you. Make me fuckin sick." She said.
"Where is Coach?" I asked.
"He's dead." She yelled over her shoulder as she went to check on her boys.
