《Drugs You Should Try It》Chapter Eighteen
Advertisement
The chemistry in the room was like electricity Zephyr had never Jacques so in tune with what he was doing, not even back at home in Mo City. This was different she paid close attention to the way he was carrying himself, he looked as almost there wasn't an ounce of stress weighing on his shoulders. Which she was happy about but she knew better. Although she could tell Jacques was in a different frame of mind she also knew that her best friend still had a chip on his shoulder about how things went down with his parents.
Zephyr was still shook herself about the whole ordeal and how things went down but she didn't let it way heavy on her. Pointing the old school Polaroid towards the back of Jacques she took a quick snapshot of him as he skillfully moved across the sound board. The photo slid out and she gave it a good shake before laying it down on the arm of the couch she found herself residing in since she got here.
Slowly but surely the photo developed and the image came to front. A sense of pride swelled in her heart as she stared at it. This was all her Jacques talked about and here he is. Here they are, Jacques didn't forget about her and that's what made her love him even more. They promised each other forever and always, Birds.
" Come on Z, going to get something to eat. "
Jacques voice broke Zephyr out of her small moment in her head. Securing her cameras in her bag she grabbed Jacques hand and led the way out of the studio. The lights from the foyer of T.I's home almost blinded the pair due to them being in the dim lights of the downstairs studio for hours on end.

" Let me go tell him we're dipping then we can head out to the hotel. " Jacques baritone voice sounded before he pressed his lips to the side her head.
~~~~~~~~~~~~ • ~~~~~~~~~~~~
" Do you think they hate me lil dove ? " Jacques husky voice whispered loud enough for Zephyr to hear.
The currently in the hotel room laying in bed. After a hot shower and two blunts later the two were now sitting in silence thinking. That's all they could do, for some weird reason things have turned around for them so fast and the only explanation they could come up with was the man up stairs. Zephyr moves her head over Jacques heart and sighed letting out a chest full of air.
" No, they still love you baby Jacques. "
" Nah, I don't think so dove. "
Jacques chest was heavy with emotion and even though he was laid up with his better half at the moment that still didn't change the fact that his mental was fucked. He knew deep down that this was all for the greater good but he despised the way things had went down. Did he regret this ? No. Did he want his parents support and acceptance ? Hell yes. But that was something he could hold off on for right now. Jacques knew the stigma that came along with being a black creative trying to gain support from parents. It was the ugly truth but black parents simply didn't care for their child's creativity unless it brought money to the table.
" Prove them wrong but don't ever think for once that they don't love you. You just have to make this shit shake the right way and show them why they shouldn't have doubted you in the first place. "

Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns.

The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.
