But then again..things never seem to go as planned.
"What chu mean you can't come down nigga?!" Riley yelled into the phone. "Riley, calm down. I get out in two weeks" Cairo said reassuringly. "Why yo dumbass in jail anyway?" Riley asked.
"Shit happens Riley" Cairo said. "Nigga, Huey's counting on yo ass" Cindy said as she snatched the phone. "Who the hell is this?" Cairo asked. "Dis is your worst nightmare speaking. And right about now..Huey needs all the fucking help he can get. Now either you get down or lay down" she said. There was a brief silence as Cairo processed these words.
"Alright..but I'm still in jail."
"We'll bust you out" Cindy said as she glanced at Riley nervously.
"Um..how are you gonna do that? I mean, they got this place secured with all these damn guards" Cairo said. A thought crossed Cindy's mind. "Who's phone are you on?" she asked suspiciously. "Hey, niggas have to be prepared at all times..I gotta few tricks up my sleeve" Cairo chuckled. Cindy smirked and shook her head. "Aye, even though I don't know you..you seem aight" she said.
"So in other words..you gon'get me the hell out of here?" Cairo said. "Hell yeah. But first we gotta think of a plan. We'll hit you up" Cindy said as she hung up the phone. "Alright..so now all we gotta do is buss him out of jail" Riley stated. "Yeah, but that nigga is all the way in Chicago..how the fuck we gon' get there?" Cindy said. Riley shrugged his shoulders and shook his head just as Jazmine and Huey walked in.
"Alright so what's his status?" Jazmine asked. "He's in jail" Riley and Cindy said in unison. "Damn" Huey cursed under his breath. "Well there's only way to solve this.." Jazmine began. Huey pinched the bridge of his nose. "Please don't tell me we're gonna-"
"Yep. We're gonna have to bust him out" Jazmine stated. Huey groaned. "Don't be like that and Cairo are best friends!" Jazmine yelled. "Used to be!" Huey yelled back. There was a crisp silence as they stood and glared at each other; both of their cheeks turning a bright shade of red. Riley and Cindy exchanged glances.
"Okay anyway.." Jazmine started, turning away from Huey, "Did you contact the others?" Jazmine asked Riley and Cindy. "Yeah. They said they all coming,,well except Ming. She said something about..uh being held hostage by her Granddad or some shit" Cindy said, shrugging her shoulders. Jazmine gave Huey a confused look. "You know what she talking about?" she asked him.
"Last time I saw Ming was at the kickball game..and she lied. So I wouldn't even believe a thing she says" he said. "Nigga quit holdin' grudges and get to the point!" Riley shouted impatiently. "Uh last time she said her Granddad was always making her practice kickball..so maybe he's holding her against her will as an all-time player" Huey said with a shrug. Jazmine thought about this.
"Shouldn't that old man be dead by now? I mean for real, that nigga was pretty old last time we saw his ass" Riley said, making Cindy buss out laughing. Huey and Jazmine rolled their eyes.
"The point is..we need Ming but she's in trouble. Therefore, we gotta go get her" Jazmine said. "We gotta go save her ass too? Man, this gang business is starting out like shit" Cindy said with a groan. Jazmine gave her a look before turning to Huey. "Go book us some plane tickets..we need to start moving now!" she told him. Huey snorted. "You're not the boss of me" he said. Jazmine smirked at him. "Ugh, please don't decide to be immature now..we're on a schedule" she giggled, giving him a playful shove. Riley and Cindy smirked at them.
"What?" they both asked.
"Ya'll niggas flirting when a while ago we were sure ya'll were gonna kill each other" Cindy laughed. Huey gave her and Riley a quick glare before walking away to go book the flights. Jazmine slowly breathed in and breathed out. "What's wrong Jaz?" Cindy asked. "Nothing..it's just that I've never been on a plane before" she said. Cindy and Riley bussed out laughing again; Jazmine made a pouty face.
"It's not funny!" she yelled childishly, crossing her arms.
"Man, whatever nigga!" Riley laughed. Jazmine knocked him upside the head, causing him to glare at her; Cindy snickered.
That's when Huey yelled from the computer room.
"Aye Jazmine, the closest flight to Chicago leaves in two hours!" he yelled. Jazmine gave Riley and Cindy a shocked look before running into the computer room.
"Damn.." she said with a sigh as she looked over Huey's shoulder at the computer screen. "The next flight isn't until next week" Huey stated. "We're gonna have to make this flight" Jazmine said as she quickly hurried out of the room. "What?!" Huey yelled after her.
"Riley and..I mean Reezy and C-Murph, we gotta make that flight! Go get packed!" she yelled as she ran into her room. Riley and Cindy gave each other shocked looks. "Huey! Let's go!" Riley said as he jogged to the door. Huey quickly bought the plane tickets and hurried after Riley.
The Freeman boys jumped in the black mustang. Huey started his car and realized that Jazmine's car wasn't running anymore. It was out of gas. Shit, forgot about that. Huey shook his head at himself as he pulled the car out of the driveway and headed for their apartment.
"Hurry! WE GOTTA GO!" Jazmine yelled at Cindy as she stuffed her pink suitcase. "Calm the fuck down! I'm going as fast as I can!" Cindy yelled back as she stuffed her own suitcase. Then Cindy froze. "Girl, you know yo' car still running?" she said. Jazmine processed this.
"Shit!" she yelled.
As I said before..things never go as planned.
