Yo kid you and I are going out Friday and I don't want to hear about how busy you are. Some much needed brother time is in order. Mir said to Quisy.

Okay I can do that and shut the fuck up, you already know I never swerve you like that, we Bros for life. Quisy said.

Who that? Cut asked in Quisy’s background.

Who the fuck is that asking who I am. Aye I know you not dealing with that bitch nigga again little bro. Better let’em know who I am. Mir said.

No I promise it’s not him but hold and stop calling me little punk, I'm not that much younger than you. Quisy said laughing.

Look if you don't want Mir knowing I advise you shut the fuck up. That's who I'm talking to. Quisy tried to say quietly but Mir heard anyway.

My bad bro I'm ba…. Quisy was cut off.

Pack your shit and be waiting for me outside when I get there in 10Mins. Mir said as he hung up.

Here’s why Quisy is going to do just that, one, he’s afraid of none but knows his limit with Mir and two, he knows Mir will kill everyone just for him and that includes his cousin Mal and his ace Cut. To avoid any problems Quisy packed up and told Cut he's going home for a few days but will be back. Declining Cut’s offer for ride by informing him Mir is picking him up because he needs to talk to him about something. Cut reluctantly agreed but nonetheless gave Quisy a kiss and told him to be back within a few days.

As Quisy waited outside he kept wondering why his father reached out to him and if he should forget the whole thing or actually heart him out. It’s no secret Quisy is a mommas boy but before his father left that was his Batman and he was Robin. Pulled away from his train of thought Mir arrived in the 10Mins he stated he would.

Get in now! Mir said sternly.

Do you really need to be like this right now, it's really not that serious Mir. Quisy said.

Actually I think I should be beating Cut’s ass right now and yours too so be thankful I'm doing this little. Mir replied.

Ugh! Why do you always get this way over a guy who's interested in me. You really don't know how to just chill when it comes to MY love life. Quisy stated emphasizing my.

If you knew how to pick them then I wouldn't have to involve myself how I do. Now would I? Mir asked.

Wait what's wrong with Cut, so he's good enough to be my boy and your boy but not my man? Quisy asked.

Look, I love the nigga but my love and loyalty to you outweighs any of that. Why is it I'm paying for you to go to college and working on getting all my permits and licenses to open up shop if you're just going to date a nigga with no future other jail or death. You think I'm doing that shit just for kicks. Fuck no. I'm doing that because above all we got a make it. I do what I do but I got a good paying job. Mal or Cut don't have shit but the game. Yeah I maybe wild but unfortunately that's how the streets raised but stupid I am not. Mir said.

I hear you bro, I really do but I can't help how I feel about Cut and he can have a future if we show him the way, Mal too. Do you really think Ny going to let that man go or fall behind while she's out here trying to make it. You worry too much and rightful so therefore I get where you're coming from. Quisy said.

Man I tell you what me and Cut are going to have a talk believe that. Through thick and think it was you and your family that was there for me. I didn't have Mal when I was little or Cut I had you, momma Joe, and your parents. When my mom’s died it was your mom that fought them crackas when they tried to take me and it was momma Joe that finished them with a free trip to hell. So understand this, we may not share the same blood but our brotherhood is just as strong if not more then some of these blood brothers. I'm always going to be around to put my foot in your ass whenever you give me reason to. Our boys do need guidance but you don’t have to date Cut to show him that. You know that nigga don’t love long and I get why but if he try that shit with you I'm a be a friend short. Mir said.

I hate you sometimes, always got to be right. Look, I'm not going to lie and say I will leave him alone because you know we don't do that with each other but I will say I'll be extra careful. OK? Quisy said.

I can't change your mind, yet, so I'll accept it for now. We're going to a spoken word on Friday I know you been writing and somebody wants to meet you so be ready. Mir said.

I haven't been to a poetry session in almost a year since you know. Quisy said trying to stay positive.

I know that's why I'm taking you, it's time you start trying to get back to your true self and do what I know she loved that you love doing. You're gifted kid and I mean that. Mir said.

You’re right bro and thanks. Aye, you know there are some people who ship us. Quisy stated.

Ship us, are we taking a boat ride or some shit? Mir asked confused.

Let me give you a crash course in the language of teenage girls. Ship means you like a pairing or couple even if the two are together. Quisy explained laughing.

What the fuck! Do they know I'm straight and we’re brothers. Mir said kinda mad.

Yeah but he’s really nasty I've told him you love me for different reasons but he insisted on shipping us. This isn't Supernatural, although I'm sailing with that ship of brothers myself too. Quisy said laughing.

Yeah iight well they can have that. Yo you want to come with me to get momma Joe some new furniture? Mir asked changing the subject.

Shymir are you insane. You damn well she's not going to let you do that. How many times have I offered to get her something so small as a new TV, one that doesn't have a fat back to it. She's going to give it away because she's not going to throw away her furniture or give it away. She'll give you hell before anything. She's a stubborn woman. Quisy said.

I really want her to move more than anything. Mir  said.

Me too, I love our neighborhood and for the longest I was naïve to believe we were safe because of her and our family status but sadly I was proven wrong. Things aren't the sane and I don't like her being there but Angie says she's fine. Quisy said.

Bro are has an apartment already furnished for her age just went go there. She said she raised her family and buried poppa John in that house on that block and will not move until it’s her time to close her eyes. I've begged her plenty of times to move, I’ve even asked Ang to talk to her she just won't budge. Mir said.

That's momma Joe for you. Quisy said.

I need to stay over my place for a few if that's cool with you. Mir stated.

Yeah I can do that but I need to go home get some more clothes though. Quisy said.

Did you hear what you just said? Mir asked.

Yeah I got to get more clothes, so? Quisy asked back.

You're so smart till you're stupid, you have your own room with two closets full of clothes. Mir said sarcastically.

That hurt, you El Debarge reject, I forgot damn. Quisy said.

Oh it's supposed to storm tonight I'm locking my door just so you know. Mir said laughing.

So, I do know how to pick locks, remember I taught you. I'll just pop the lock on your door if it starts lightning. Fuck what you heard I don't like lightning so just make room for me if it does. Shit, I used to give you my spare draws when we were little anytime you’d wet the bed so you wouldn't get in trouble yet still your pissy ass would pee in those too. Not to mention, you were fif-fucking-teen when you stopped wetting the bed. So I do think I've earned the right to lay with you if it starts lightning if I say so myself. Quisy said laughing back.

Oh shit, iight you got that man. I got to make a run, I'm a drop you off, do that, then come back. Mir said.
Cool but be safe. Quisy said.

Mir dropped Quisy off at his home and left to handle some business, Legal business Mir wasn’t just a dope dealer but an aspiring businessman who was making a lot of great noise. Mir mother passed from heart failure when he was 6. His father never acknowledge him and went so far to do so, being the one who called CPS when his mother died. The things good but jealous pussy will make a good dick but weak man do. Mir does have blood siblings but seeing as how his mother’s cousin cheated with his father, got pregnant, and married him gave Mir enough dislike to disown anything of that man including his other children. In his eyes, it’s just him and Quisy and that's enough for him.

However, there is blood that flows deep which has caused the spillage of blood that can never be regained. Secrets shall be given its exposure but before they can in the shadows shall they remain.
