Gwen's POV
The rest of the week was pretty boring. The only notable thing was that Huey got a chance to direct the Christmas play and, of course, made a version with a black Jesus. I'm actually surprised they let it be shown; people aren't very open-minded about their religion. I came down the stairs and noticed Riley sneaking around with a video camera. He was mostly tapin' Grandad in his shades and Dorothy. What is he up to?
I shrugged it off and went into the kitchen for some lunch. A few minutes later I came back downstairs to see what was on TV and got my answer as to what Riley was up to. Sitting at the kitchen table he was putting on a pitiful act to the camera so that Dorothy could get pimped. He even managed to make himself cry on cue. That's kinda impressive. I walked into the living room and sat down next to Huey.
"You're brother's trying to get a free car upgrade from a TV show." I spoke bluntly and began channel surfing as Huey stormed into the kitchen. Most likely in an attempt to stop Riley before he truly starts. About a week later the door bell rang, looking out the window as Riley went to get the door I saw exhibit, the host of the show 'pimp my ride'. I guess Huey failed.
Riley made quick to hide them but Grandad found them and I turned back to the sewing project in my hand as he, no doubt, proceeded to beat them up. Shortly afterward Riley showed an episode of 'Pimp my ride' in an attempt to get Grandad to go along with his scheme.
"Oh my goodness." Grandad spoke. "See you too could have a TV in the steering wheel." Riley spoke next. "Boy, Dorothy isn't just a car. I've loved and cared for that vehicle for over 30 years. You think I'm gonna let some D*mn rapper put a goldfish in the dashboard?" "Hoes love goldfish granddad." Huey jumped in and spoke "You two need your own sitcom." I spoke after him.
"Seriously, you do realize if the charade isn't 100% convincible you aint gonna have a car no more." "Who asked you?!" Riley snapped. "Whatever man, when karma swings back around you better duck real low." With that I hopped off the couch and went into the kitchen for something to drink.
When I re-entered the room it seemed that Riley had convinced Grandad and they were on their way to the door to start faking. I shrugged my shoulders and walked next to Huey. Grandad was the first outside and looked around before speaking "Gentlemen, sorry about the misunderstanding." He then walked continuing to look back and forth, keeping the façade of being blind.
"Now where is that boy, what's his name, Enhibit?" I gave a chuckle and followed Huey as he began to leave. We went to the hill where Jasmine already sat. She wiggled her tooth and spoke in a childish manner. "The tooth fairy will be coming soon." "You still believe in the tooth fairy?" I asked with a chuckle. "Every time I loose a tooth the tooth fairy takes it away and leaves a dollar under my pillow so I know he's real."
Huey spoke next being blunt as usual. "There aint no such thing as the tooth fairy." "Then who's leaving the money?" "Probably your parents, they have both the cash and the access to your room." "Why would they lie to me?" "Cause the truth hurts, jasmine. The world is a hard and lonely place, and no body gets anything for free, and you wanna know what else?
One day, you and everyone you know is gonna die." That may have been a bit too much Huey. Jasmine ran off crying, yup definitely too much. I got up to chase after her, she needed some comforting.
