But only one of them really caught my eye.The boy named Shad.
None of them noticed I was there.I guess my shoes weren't that loud.
They were playin and Omari and Boy 2 were gettin whooped!Shad and Allen seemed like they had been playin wit each other for years when they had just met today.
They finished the game.They were givin each other dap and all of dat.
My new cell phone started to ring and all of them looked over at me.
I smiled a lil and answered my phone.It was my brother.

Shad: AIght can I call you lata on tonight?
Me: ...Yea.
Shad: Aight. (walkin off backwards)Bye Trecie.(turnin around and walkin off.)
