CHAPTER FIVE

Sakyja's Sweetening

Houston, Texas

—————————-

"Ok y'all gone stop geeking on her though." Osama said laughing.

"Shittttt. We just saying her head big as hell. Knowing your chest hurting." Juke said laughing hard as hell.

They were all at his house per usual. Ky had her head laid on Osama's chest as she scrolled through her phone.

"My head not even that freaking big." Ky said looking up from her phone.

"It kind of is bae. Why you even laying like that? Looking uncomfortable as fuck." Liy said laughing.

Ky was laid out on the couch and Osama was sitting but he was slouched down into the couch. Ky decided to lay her head on his chest and her neck looked bent.

"You posed to be on my side and I'm fine." Ky said back, rolling her eyes in the process.

"Neck flexible huh?" Jaliy asked with raised eyebrows.

"GIRLLLAAA" Ky exclaimed, reaching up and slapping Jaliy's leg then laying back down.

"What y'all on today?" Saun said while trying his best to raise his low eyes and seem alert but in all actuality he was high off his ass.

"Yo dumb ass can't even see, eyes lower than a prostitute's drawls. YOU? ain't on shit" Juke said making everyone laugh at him.

"Bitch you swear you a comedian." Saun said and rolled his eyes.

"They don't call me Kevin Hart twin for nothing. I'm just saying, I'm just saying." Juke said shrugging just shoulders.

"You out of the real world real stupid real dumb delusional bitch, nobody calls you that." Saun snapped.

"Damnnnnnm. Why you going so hard?" Ky asked while choking over her laughs.

"Cause he's a habitchual liar." Saun said rolling his eyes.

"You can't even spell that shit." Juke said.

"H A B I T C H U A L. Duh Im not slow like you." Saun said.

"Girl - It's h a b i t u a l. Fucking dumb ass." Liy said shaking her head.

"I knew that. I was just testing y'all." Saun said pursing his lips and shrugging his shoulders.

"Bitch please" Osama laughed.

"Stop cursing" Ky spoke up.

"No. START cursing. Kiddy ass" Osama said.

"Okay" Ky said sitting up off him and leaning back on the actual couch.

"Ky you don't have to start cussing." Saun said.

Saun found him self being Ky and Liy's big brother. He could almost instantly feel when their mood changed even in the slightest form.

"Didn't plan on it" Ky shrugged.

She didn't like how Sama always seemed to try to change her. Yet she also knew that she was an overly sensitive person who often looked at things the wrong way to justify her sensitivity.

"I want to do some fun. I refuse to be in the house lame as hell and it's summer outside"Osama said laughing and pulling Ky into his lap.

"What we gone do? We got the kids with us" Juke laughed.

"WE GOT THE MINORSS. FUCKKKK. We got the minors" Saun imitated the lady he saw on tiktok the other day.

"Stop playing with us" Jaliy said pinching and twisting his ear.

"See... You always drag it." Saun said rubbing his ear. "Just so abusive bro."

"Okay I don't care."Jaliy said shrugging her shoulders.

"That's y'all problem" Saun said shaking his head, "Don't ever care about shit."

"And won't start" Ky said.

"I hope somebody knock your fucking top off" Saun said mugging her.

"The opps know wassup with me" Ky said shrugging her shoulders.

"Girl what fucking opps?" Osama asked from behind her.

"You in my business? Aw okay" Ky said.

"Girl please" Osama said pinching her neck.

"Oh my gosh, geez" Ky said rubbing her neck.

"Bro you funny as fuck " Juke said laughing, "Geez."

"Are you making jokes from my choice of vocabulary?" Ky asked trying to sound like a news reporter, eye brow raised.

"Yea cause what you tryna get into?" Jaliy backed Ky up with her eyebrow raised as well, leaning up from her seat

"Okay Thing 1 &' Thing 2" Saun said.

"Naw cause y'all know our whole body is sold and we don't give a fuck" Jaliy said mimicking youngboy, leaning back.

"Hold on? HUH? VON." Ky said snapping her neck towards her friend.

fuck she mean whole body sold?🤔

"LMFAAOOO, bye" Jaliy said cracking up laughing.

"Naw cause we never play like that" Ky said eyeing her.

I will not be a sacrifice. We don't even play like that.

"Girl please, You know I'm playing" Jaliy said making Ky laugh.

"I mean I'm just trying to make sure" Ky said.

"Ion think she playing tho bae" Osama said, raising his eyebrow.

"Shut yo hoe ass up young nigga" Jaliy mugged him.

Jaliy and Osama didn't like eachother in the slightest form. Jaliy had her guard up high behind her friend and Osama wanted all Ky's attention which kind of pulled her away from Jaliy so they were constantly arguing.

Ky tried to refrain from stepping into their little "beef" so she wouldn't be picking sides even though she sometimes had to because of Jaliy's smart mouth and lack of care for what came out of it.

"I ain't gone be too many hoe ass niggas, know that" Osama said.

"You a hoe ass nigga if I say you a hoe ass nigga, hoe ass nigga" Jaliy said mugging him, shrugging her shoulders.

"Okay yall" Juke said.

Juke didn't want to get involved into they shit either but he grew to like Jaliy very much although her mouth was smart as shit. He also knew Osama could get mad as hell and completely black out. He didn't want to have to lay hands on a long time friend.

"Naw cause you need to set some boundaries for your girl so she can stop worrying about me and mine" Osama said with a blank expression.

"Don't say boundaries like she just some dog." Ky said, that comment not really sitting with her right.

"Okay Sakyja" Osama said, shifting his lap side to side, slick trying to get her off him.

"What you want me to get up? because I said don't say boundaries like she some dog?" Ky asked, getting off him and sitting on the couch.

"You just let her get disrespectful as hell with me but got some to say when I defend my self? That shit wack as hell" Osama said mugging her.

"Stop cursing at me." Ky said.

"It would have been different if you had defended yourself by yourself but instead you had to bring Juke into this talking about set boundaries like she just a pet to be controlled" Ky continued.

"Okay Sakyja. Im not trying to hear all that" Osama said.

"Okay" Ky said unlocking her phone, swiping through her home screen.

They all sat in silence for the next 30 minutes to a hour, just scrolling through their phones. The awkwardness still lingering in the air. The only sound heard every once in a while was Ky's laugh from a funny tiktok.

"Look. I apologize for saying the things I did and coming at you wrong." Jaliy said looking at Osama.

Jaliy didn't want to be the reason for troubles in her friend's relationship. She wanted her to be happy.

"I hear you. My fault for the shit I be doing too. Dap?" Osama said holding his hand out.

"Fasho" Jaliy said grasping it, pulling him in then slapping his back.

"A straight up nigga" Saun said rubbing his eyes.

"Nigga I say swear, you missed the whole lil beef" Juke said.

"I feel asleep after Jaliy start taking bout that devil shit, had to go sit with God and make sure my spot was secured" Saun said, stretching his body until he heard bones crack.

"I was just bullshiting" Jaliy said laughing.

"I sure hope so cause God said you gone be with the special ed folks of heaven and you can't sit with the regular angels. I mean that's IF you even make it up there" Saun said shrugging.

"On God?" Jaliy said.

"See that's why" Saun said, "Why you putting shit on that man."

"Oh my fault OG" Jaliy said, eyes widened.

"You lil Rodney's son?" Ky asked.

"You talking about Rodney with the fat ass butt?" Jaliy answered with her finger on her chin and eyebrows raised.

"What the fuck?" Juke asked, face in shock.

"Y'all like nigga ass? That's weird" Osama said.

"That's suspicious." Saun finished the meme.

"Heyyyy fav" Mera said, walking in the door after Tae who just walked straight to the kitchen.

"Wassup...?" Osama said, in a more questioning tone.

"What yall been doing?" Mera asked, sitting next to him.

"So she don't see us?" Juke asked.

"I mean I see you.....you see me?"Saun asked.

"Damn right I see you." Juke answered.

"Anyways" Mera said rolling her eyes.

"Girl-" Jaliy said then laughing.

Ky just sat there burning a hole in the side of Osama's face. She was wondering how far it would get between him and Mera. She knew what Mera was trying to do but she was wondering if Osama knew.

"C'mere Ky" Osama said.

Ky got up from the other couch walking to Osama slowly. She stood in front of him because she had nowhere to sit.

Osama was sitting on the end of the couch and Mera was sitting next to him in the middle. Ky refused to ask Mera move. She knew that would do anything but good.

"Man c'mere" Osama said pulling her on his lap.

"Cause period" Juke and Jaliy whispered, swiping their hands under their necks.

"Okay umm" Mera said clapping her hands and getting up.

"Yea right" Jaliy said under her breath, earning an elbow to the side from Juke.

"Tae we come in folks house and don't speak now?"Juke asked.

"My fault, a nigga had to get some water in his system." He answered, "cotton mouth be kicking a nigga ass."

"Heard you" Juke said understanding.

Tae was quiet and to his self but he was very respectful unless you pissed him off.

"What y'all been on?" Saun asked, referring to Tae and Mera.

"Not shit" Tae answered, shrugging his shoulders

Truth be told Tae and Mera had just got out of one of their many heated arguments. Heated arguments meaning Tae sitting there with his blood boiling while Mera threw things around, at him and cursed him out. That's why Tae went straight into the kitchen, to calm his self down.

This was also why Mera came in being friendly to Osama, to piss off  Tae. She also knew Sakyja had something going with Osama and she didn't like Sakyja so she thought why not piss off 2 birds with one stone!

"Oh"Saun said.

"What y'all been doing without us?" Mera asked.

"Not shit, chilling" Juke answered.

"Y'all not gone speak?" Mera asked, referring to Liy and Ky.

"Did you?" Ky asked.

"Aw okay" Liy said before Mera could answer the question.

"I don't like how you didn't let me answer the question Sakira asked me" Mera said, purposely mispronouncing Ky's name.

"And I don't like you. Now what?" Jaliy said, shrugging her shoulders with a blank stare on her face.

"You know my name not no Sakira. If you can't say it correctly, don't say it at all. I don't know who told you we were on a first name basis anyways" Ky said rubbing Osama's chin, staring at his lips.

"I feel like if it's all this animosity and hostility towards me, y'all can just go back to where y'all came from. Our friend group was doing perfect without y'all and it'll do the same when y'all leave" Mera said crossing her arms.

"You literally the only one who has animosity baby. I be cooling with my bestfriend and my nigga. I don't bother you. You always find a way to argue with me, and I always find a way to shut you up and hurt your feelings in the process. Aren't you tired of that? I would leave me the hell alone if I was you love." Ky said, pulling her eyes away from Osama's lips and dragging them to look Mera up and down.

"She said it nicely so you know what I got to do. Bitch stop playing with us. We don't fucking bother you like she said and still for the past month and some change you been picking with us. I'm not gone explain this shit to you too many more times before I beat your ass silly like you stole some from my mama." Jaliy said causing Tae's head to snap at her.

"Aye bruh" Tae called out.

"What nigga?" Jaliy answered, snapping her head towards him.

"I don't do them threats. Y'all can keep this shit cute" Tae said mugging Jaliy.

"And I don't do the bullshit. Tell your girl to leave us the fuck alone before she catch some black eyes. And me and Ky don't do one on ones, you just gone have to beat our ass." Jaliy said mugging him back.

"On my mama" Ky co-signed.

Tae just laughed and nodded his head. He was over the whole situation and he just wanted to go to sleep.

"My ride here bae cause I'm not finna be sat up with no hoes who threatening me. I'll see you later" Mera said looking at Tae then mugging Ky.

Tae just nodded his head and threw his arm over his eyes, going to sleep.

Ky looked at Jaliy as Jaliy looked at her, they both laughed.

"Hoes? girl gone on" Jaliy said still laughing, watching Mera walk out the door then slam it.

"Anyways, look Liy, my baby sleep" Ky said cooing at Osama as he slept.

"Girl you so cute." Liy said laughing.

It was hot outside but the A/C was blasting in Juke's house. This made everyone start to drift off to sleep. It felt like that nap you take before the cook out start.

——————-

"aye"

"hmm?" Ky asked, tossing to her left side.

"I'm finna dip, you riding?" Osama said.

"Yea"

"Ight put yo shoes on and shit, Im finna go sit in the car"

"Okay"

Ky put her shoes on and laced them up then started grabbing all her things so she could go. Jaliy was still sleep, body tossed all over Juke. She was going to text her later to let her know where she was. Ky grabbed her keys and walked out to Osama's car.

"Where we going?"

"Somewhere, just put your seatbelt on and sit back."

"Okay."

He pulled off putting his hand on her thigh and steering with the other.

"Can I connect my bluetooth?" Ky asked looking at the side of his face.

"Yea, just don't have your messages dinging all in the songs." He said looking at her then looking back at the road.

"Don't nobody even text this phone." Ky said laughing. "Except my mama and Liy"

"You don't got no type of friends"

"And don't care to have any"

"I know that's right" Osama said, imitating Saweetie's voice.

"Where we going forreal?" Ky asked.

"I gotta go pick some up from somebody. You gone stay in the car though" Osama said looking over at her again.

"Okay"

"Where you wanna eat at?" Osama said pulling up at somebody house.

"It don't really matter."

"Alright" He said getting out the car.

So sexy lil daddy

Girl why would you say that?

"What do I want to eat?" Ky asked aloud to herself, scrolling through her phone.

"Wings maybe? Ouu yes hot wings with lemon pepper on top" Ky said aloud again.

"You figure out what you want to eat?" Osama asked, getting back in the car, throwing a bag in the backseat.

"I literally just did like 1 second before you got in" Ky responded, fighting the urge to be nosey and ask what was in the bag.

"What you wanna eat?" Osama asked pulling off.

"Wings"

"Coo"

"What's in the bag?" Ky asked, staring at the side of his face and biting her nails.

"Man what I say about that? Stop doing that shit." He looked at her then quickly looked back at the road.

"I'm sorry" Ky said, snatching her fingers out her mouth.

Osama didn't like when she bit her nails or showed any sign of nervousness. It was like showing your weakness to somebody which would make them want to try you.

"Ain't nothing in the bag though, just some stuff I had to pick up from my brother." He said, pulling into the wing place.

"Oh" Ky said feeling nosey.

"You wanna sit in or go through the drive thru?"

"Drive thru"

"What kind of wings you want?" Osama asked, pulling into the empty drive thru lane.

"Regular hot with lemon pepper on top and fries and umm a water" Ky said, sitting up.

"Hey, how are you? How may I help you today?"

"Umm yea wassup with it? Can I get a 10 piece combo? Hot wings with lemon pepper on top and a water."

"Yes sir, will that be all?"

"Uh yea"

"Alright. 12.76 is your total, pull around for me."

"You so ghetto" Ky laughed.

" What? I did something wrong?"

"Umm yes wassup with it?" Ky mocked him. "Toooo ghetto"

"You tripping" Osama laughed at the way she tried to imitate his voice.

"That's how you sound tho"

"Man Im is so proper" He said pulling over into an empty parking lot.

"I hope you wasn't being forreal with that or we got to break up." Ky said pulling her legs into a crisscross and putting her food on her lap.

"Naw, I was just playing shorty"

" You know you my first boyfriend?" Ky blurted out.

"Huh? Forreal?"

"Yea..." Ky said dipping the wing in ranch.

"Your mama must ain't let you date?"

"She said I could start having boyfriends once I got in high school. Of course I couldn't link with them how I'm linking with you now at that age but I could have one of them things. I just never got it" Ky said looking at him.

"One of them things? It? Girl we are not objects" He said rolling his eyes but laughing.

"But wow I can't believe that. You look like the type to be in love and stuff all the time"

"Um yea no. Them dudes just didn't really fit my standard. I don't like none of them dudes at that school. I really don't even wanna go back."

"Yea I feel you, I got certain standards when it comes to my girls too. You do need to go back to school though. You made it this far, don't waste it all"

"Oh no baby I'm going to do 12th grade. I just don't know if I wannna homeschool, do virtual or keep going in person."

"I think you should keep going in person. It's your last year, last pep rally, last time getting to see fights in the lunch room and all that. Best experience ever." Osama said looking at Ky devour another chicken wing.

"Yea I hear you. Imma think about it, not right now though. I'm enjoying my summer baby." Ky laughed, tossing a clean bone onto the plate and licking her fingers.

"Mhm yea" Osama said, staring at her fingers.

"Where we bout to go?" Ky asked, closing the box and putting back in the bag and on the backseat. She had like 4 wings left and she was not going to be throwing them out.

"Wherever you want to go"

"My house"

"Okay, tell me how to get there" Osama said pressing the start button and pulling off.

"Really just keep straight and on the 2nd light make a right then at the 3rd light make another right. Two lights after make a lef- "

"Girl i'm not gone remember that shit"

"Okay, Imma just wait until you get up there"

Ky directed him how to get to her house which took about 10 minutes. Bryson Tiller played in the background as Ky sung along and Osama tapped along to the beat on her leg.

I really like him.

He's so handsome.

I would give him a head if I knew how to.

Girl toooo far.

My bad I don't know why I said that, well thought that.

He's so pretttyyyyy!

I love-

No the fuck you don't.

You right, I'm pushing it.

Very much.

"This the house Ky?" Osama asked tapping her leg, knocking her out her thoughts.

"Umm yea"

"You be zoning out so hard" He laughed.

Thinking about you Mr.Sexy

"My mommy said I been doing that since I was little. If no ones talking to me and keeping me engaged, I'll zone out like immediately" Ky said, grabbing her things then getting out the car.

"Yea sound like you got a low attention span"

"Some like that."

"Aye I can't stay. I'll come pick you up tomorrow?" Osama said, holding onto his door, one foot propped up into the car.

"Oh"

"Man don't do that Ky." He said, walking around the car and to her , wiping the tear that was going to fall.

"I can't be around you 24/7 baby, I'm sorry. You gone have to toughen this shit out forreal"

"I know. I just wanted you to stay and I thought you were then you waited all the way until we got here to say that you weren't. If i knew you couldn't, I wouldn't have said I wanted to go to my house. I would have said where ever you wanted to go." Ky sniffled and choked over some of her words.

"You are such a crybaby man" Osama said pulling her into a hug. "Jaliy can hang out with you. Don't let me take up all your time and don't make yourself feel like you need me around to be happy"

"I hear you" She sniffled, inhaling his scent in the process.

"Imma see you later... Okay?" He asked, looking down at her.

"Okay" She said pulling from the hug and walking to her front door.

Ky stuck the key into the keyhole and turned it, hearing Osama's car door close behind her so she knew he had gotten into the car and was most likely watching her until she got into the house.

Ky opened the door and sat her stuff on the counter the turned back around to the door waving.

Osama honked the horn and drove off as Ky closed the door, locking it.

myliyliy🤎.

okay🤪🤪🤪🤪

get yo childish ass off my phone.

She must don't love me..

"LaLa DooDoo" Ky hummed, putting her box of chicken in the microwave but not turning it on.

"Ouuu I said doodoo" She laughed out to herself.

I miss my boyfriend.

Ouu that sounds so cute.

Naw I miss my mommy.

Ma💗

ringing......

"Hello?"

"Hey mommy"

"Hey baby, What you doing?"

"Nothing, Osama dropped me off like 15 minutes ago and Jaliy on her way over now."

"Oh okay. Where you and Javier go?"

"We was chilling at Juke house at first but he was leaving to go somewhere and I just rode with him. We went and got wings and stuff then he dropped me off at the house"

"You cried didn't you?"

"Yea how you know?" Ky asked twiddling her fingers, glad that she had regular called her mom because her face was flushed red with embarrassment.

"You're very attached to that boy. I didn't know if it was for the good at first but I understand that's your first boyfriend so I'm going to fall back"

Sakyja's mom was always so brutally honest with her. Sakyja knew it was all love though.

"I hear you ma" Ky said, ready to hang up the phone now.

"Alright Ky, you can hang up now cause I know you want to." Her mom laughed.

"Okay, Love you, Bye" Ky said quick then hanging up.

Ky didn't like everyone's opinion on her relationship. She was winging it and for Osama to be her first boyfriend, she felt she was doing a pretty good job.

Everyone felt she was attached and everyone felt she was falling back from them to spend time with him but they weren't trying to understand that it was new for her. It was like having a new phone. Once you get that new phone, you not finna put it down.

"Get on my nerves. Can me and my nigga mind our business and not y'all minding it for us?" Ky spoke out to herself.

"Here she go" Ky spoke out again, walking to the door opening it after hearing the doorbell ring.

"Hey bestie, how was you and Osama's lil time together?" Jaliy walked in, hugging her friend and sitting her things down.

"Good. What you got some to say about our relationship too?" Ky rolled her eyes, throwing her body into the chair at the dinner table.

"Girl what? What are you talking about?" Liy asked, stopping and looking at her.

"I'm sorry. I just feel like everyone has a opinion on my relationship and I'm trying my best to deal with it. My mama say i'm attached, you say I don't spend time with you anymore. Osama attitude is so fucking funky sometime she and I'm just fucking tired. That's all tho , I'm okay. I just needed to get that out"Ky said getting up and smiling.

"Your fucking crazy. I hope you know that." Jaliy said laughing, sitting in a chair

Ky was always very emotional and it wasn't always just being sad. She was crazy.

"Yes boo I know. What we about to do?" Ky asked, sitting in Liy's lap.

"It don't matter lil sexy" Jaliy said, biting her lip and squinting her eyes, clutching Ky's ass in her hands.

"You tooooo gay" She said laughing.

"I'm tooooo Osama" Jaliy laughed.

"He sholl be doing that. Like sir what are you gripping?"

"That ass. Toooo fat" Jaliy said boosting her head.

"Forreal? You think so?" Ky asked, turning her head and looking back at her butt.

"Like no play play"

"Whaattt? Cause period?" Ky questioned.

"Cause perioddddd."

"What we about to do forreal though?" Liy asked sitting up in the chair.

"Tryna watch a movie orrr....."

"Yea, let's watch Lion King" Ky added on.

"That's cool with me" Liy said grabbing a popsicle out the freezer then sitting on the couch.

"You know I always get the blue ones" Ky mugged her.

"Girl get this funky ass popsicle" Liy mugged her back throwing the popsicle on the couch.

"Thank you" Ky said picking it up then sitting on the couch, giving Liy the green one she had in her hand.

"Yea Yea. Fuck you."

"Anytime my love."

"Toooo gay. When Ma coming home?" Liy asked, looking for The Lion King on Disney Plus.

"I don't know, tonight most likely."

"Oh okay" Liy said putting on the movie and tearing her popsicle open with her teeth.

"Open mine too, you know my teeth sensitive"

"Damn bitch are you good for anything?"

"Leave me alone." Ky rolled her eyes at Jaliy.

"Hm" Jaliy said, passing the open popsicle to her.

"Thank you, I love you" Ky smiled, kicking her feet.

"Mhm, I love you more"
