Shane's POV.
I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing louder than it usually does. You know when you was in deep sleep and probably dreaming of the most beautiful non existing things, the mind seems to process much more slowly. I wasn't thinking straight I just looked at my phone's screen till the call ended. I shook my head to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Then my phone rang yet again,
Shane: Yeah?
Lando🙇🏽♂️😎: Shiggy I'm on my way.
Shane: On your way? Which way?
Lando🙇🏽♂️😎: I'm coming dumbass, I hope you already ready.
I remembered we didn't have school today so ready for what.
Shane: Ready for what bro?
Lando🙇🏽♂️😎: Nigga don't tell me you forgot!
He shouted making me remove the phone from my ear for a couple of seconds before placing it back.
Shane: Why you shouting? Lando I'm not ready to go wherever you taking me.
He started laughing and I just kept quiet listening to him being stupid, like always.
Lando🙇🏽♂️😎: You said YOU are taking me to Mr Jakes Boxing Gym today my guy.
I immediately jumped when he said that and hung up to get ready, there was no need for a goodbye because he was coming here anyway. I got done bathing and immediately got dressed in a black sports bra, a black wife beater, black basketball shorts and some black and white Puma running shoes. I was really comfortable and ready to distress.
"Yow, how did you get in here?" I asked Lando who was comfortably laying on the couch. "I've lived bro" he said getting up. "You ready? I mean you must be", "Yeah I'm ready let's go" I said adjusting my hand signaling for him to lead the way. He just looked at me making me laugh while he rolled his eyes. Mr Jakes's boxing gym wasn't very far so we got there sooner than I had expected myself.

"Shanice!" Mr Jakes said as me and Lando got inside the gym. "Ooh the government" Lando said nudging me. "Shut the fuck up" I said. "My apologies for being late we had to drive Lando's neighbour to the hospital. The poor lady almost died yow. You could've seen her eyes Mr Jakes they turned purple and Lando here got so scared and decided to call me",
"What are you? A doctor?" Mr Jakes asked. As I was about to answer he shook his head and said, "Shut up Shanice". Lando couldn't help but burst into a fit of laughter.
I guess I'm not a good liar then, I thought to myself.
I swear Mr Jakes had prepared to really kill us I mean what he did today, he never does that. It was like he was instructing us to do seven things at one. "Push the tire, pick up the rings, run towards the punching bag, hit several times but don't count then skip, then then then..!" That was basically him the whole time.
"I'm never coming back here bro I'm good, enjoy" Lando said as we were getting in the car. "That's how it is? Huh? I'll drag you here if I have to" I said laughing. "Then I'll have to beat the fuck out of you like you was doing that punching bag" he said smirking. Orlando is one of the most annoying people I know. Nah it's like he's the most annoying motherfucker on Earth!
I drove back to my apartment. Immediately after we got there Lando said he needed to go to a "family" members house. This nigga is definitely going to catch something one day. So he got into his car and drove off. As I was about to get into my apartment I heard a faint "Hey". I looked around to see Mikayla smiling at me.

"Oh hey, how are you?", "I'm coping Shane, I just can't sleep at night" I mentally rolled my eyes at this dramatic bit..woman. "I'm sorry to hear that. I also get nightmares you know", I said. "Oh my goodness that's bad. I made you some lasagna by the way", she said giving it to me.
I smiled and said thanks. I then looked at her thinking she'll probably walk away but nah, sis' was not moving but smiling like a complete idiot. Okay, okay. Give her back her lasagna maybe she wants it back. Nah, Okay.
"Do you want to come inside?" I heard myself asking. "Yes please" she said immediately getting inside. Oh, O-kay. I followed behind her and closed the door. I went to the kitchen and placed the Lasagna in the fridge.
"So" I said thinking of something to say to Mikayla who was seated on one of the kitchen stools. "What did you do today?" I finally asked not even sure if I wanted to know.
"Well, I woke up and did my work, took a shower and played with myself you know because daddy isn't here no more. I was screaming out her name and I bet people out here heard me and you know I",
"Yow that's deep, actually too deep but nice, I'm proud of you" I said a bit annoyed and mentally face palming myself about the proud part. I didn't mean that. Like the fuck? Why you have to tell me about that nasty shit *gags. Shane you asked! I shook my head and sighed.
"You actually are a good person", she said. "Oh yeah? That's how you see me?" I asked with my brows arched. "Yeah, Nicole couldn't stop talking about you from the first day she actually met you."
"Oh yeah?" I said wanting her to tell me more because yow my baby was talking about me! A whole me! Damnn.
"Yeah for real and she was excited knowing that you was moving here. That's why I cooked the day you was moving in because I just wanted to thank you", "Thank me, for?" I asked a bit confused now.
"For getting her excited like that, I mean she hasn't been that way even when she heard that her little sister was moving back into the country. But you, I guess she likes you that much and I like you too" she said smiling. "I like her too and " I said smiling so hard.
"Oh my God that last part was cute, what did you say?", "I said uyang'bhora Mikayla meaning you are cute and you are a good person too" I wanted to laugh so bad but held my laughter in. "Thank you, please teach me more of that", "I'd love to" I said nodding.
"So would you love to watch a movie with me?", she asked. "Me? Yeah, that's cool". "Yayy!", she shouted excitedly before dragging me all the way to her and Nicole's apartment. "I already had it set up, so make yourself at home" she said. This girl! I thought to myself.
Mikayla was one person who was so hyper, she didn't mind telling you about her life, love life and maybe even her secrets even though she doesn't really know you. She just wanted to talk just to keep the conversation going.
She was one to want attention at all times and I couldn't even watch the movie without her asking me questions that she forced me to answer. She was just, I don't know man.
I wonder how Nicole even deals with her ass.
