Really, I live out my fear.

I was also in C -Club every year.

Then, after my first year at S &C, I volunteered as a tutor covering multiple

subjects. Now, I'm trying to transfer to your college under the Gilman

Scholarship. Well, I get to say, your transcript and your application are

flawless. Thank you, sir.

You're welcome.

You know, we still have one or two more interviews to do, but we should have

word for you by the end of this weekend.

Okay, great.

Thanks for your time.

You're most welcome.

It's okay. I got it.

Looks like you're in a hurry anyway.

Okay.

Cody Hill?

Yeah.

Sorry I'm late, sir.

I was actually running late from work.

Well, we'll let it slip, young man.

Tell me about this work you have.

I'm actually a mechanic.

Oh, very impressive. How long have you been licensed?

Well, I guess you could say I'm more of the neighbor than a mechanic.

I see. So you don't have a job?

No, it's definitely a job, sir. We're all doing space.

It pays well.

You know, I love being able to have the opportunity to help people fix their

problems.

We actually do know having a good mechanic is a necessity, right?

Well, that's impressive. And, you know, frankly, your transcript is impressive

as well. I see that you have 100 % attendance.

Quite taken back by your statement as well in your cover letter.

If you could elaborate a little bit about your experience growing up.

How it affected your chances for the scholarship?

Well, let's just say my family helped me become a man.

You know, you're given a job. You kind of got to do whatever it takes for the

job to be done.

Mr. Hill, are you with us?

Mr. Hill, are you with us?

Yes.

Yes, sorry, sir. I apologize.

Is everything okay?

Yes. I mean, yes, sir.

I found you. I'm a little nervous.

Not a problem. Just relax.

I really need this fellowship, okay? I understand.

What was the last question?

Tell me more about how your childhood made you into the man you are today.

Hey, remember me?

Yeah, you're the guy that knocked the books out of my hand.

Yeah, sorry about that.

It's okay, really.

Looks like you got a flat.

Yeah, it's fine. I'm okay. You sure?

No. See, this is the part where you're supposed to nonsense. I got you.

That's new.

If not, if I got you, let's pop a trunk.

Done. Just like that.

Wow.

That was fast.

I feel so bad. I mean... So?

What? What's your next move?

You know, I actually been thinking.

I don't think college is in the cause for me right now.

You know, my mother has been struggling to make things happen.

And I just don't think it's the right time for college right now.

How about we sit down and come up with more options?

Maybe a grant or another scholarship?

Maybe even a loan?

Come with me, we can meet up tomorrow and figure this out.

I wanna help.

I cannot believe my boss is really trippin' about me being five minutes

work. I mean, he wasn't even there and now he's saying I can't have a lunch

break? That's crazy.

I mean... Are you listening to me?

At all?

Oh, um, sorry. I was texting Cody.

I know he a mechanic, but is he a comedian too? Because you really over

chuckling. No, he says something like cute and funny.

Cute?

Him? You know he'll be really cute.

It'll be really cute if you wash your damn hands.

Did you see his nails the last time he was over here?

Ugh, he's disgusting.

He's a mechanic, of course. If he has the nails, it's going to be dirty.

You let him touch you with that face?

Where do you let him put his fingers? Oh my goodness, that's disgusting. He

washes them before, you know.

He touches me.

Look, Fran, I'm really not trying to be like that judgmental, hating Fran or

whatever. But I just feel like you can do so much better.

I mean, like, you need a man in a suit.

And I'm not...

Talking about a jumpsuit, nor that tacky ass automotive suit that he wears. You

know what I'm saying? Like, a mechanic.

Do you know that the world is becoming electric?

That means he won't even have a job for longer.

I think it's really good that he's a mechanic, you know? Like, even though he

didn't get the scholarship, I think it's really good that he's still going for

it. And, um, but you said he didn't get the program.

He got the program, he just didn't get the scholarship.

So that's why I've been helping him.

You've been giving him money?

Researching, like the scholarships and everything.

We've been working on finding scholarships so he can go there. That's

job. You need to have a man that's already ready, already prepared. A man

can wear a suit.

Listen, you do enough research yourself with what you have going on, okay? I'm

just saying, like, let's get rid of the trash, get rid of the gas, get

an electric, maybe Tesla, you know?

He's a great guy. You know, he's adopted and now he's trying to go to school.

Adopt? Okay, here we go with the sad story.

Like,

okay, I get that, but you don't gotta be the one to say it.

And plus, who's gonna save me from not being able to get a lunch break?

Can you believe he did this?

Like, do you think I should, like, email HR or something?

Hello? Oh, shit, what's good, man?

Nah, I'm actually with my brother right now.

You know, that dude sounds pretty nice, but... I'm just gonna keep it with my

brother for the rest of the day.

I got some shit I need to handle.

What'd I call you, though?

What are you doing?

Why are you so full?

You need to be over here looking at scholarships.

I'm reading one.

What are you reading?

The Vision of Clean Times.

Exactly, that has nothing to do with scholarships.

What am I supposed to do with this?

You have to come over here and look at scholarships.

What if they say no?

What if they say yes?

Why would they say it to somebody like me?

I'm just an orphan, right?

How many of you could be more popular?

Anything can happen.

Cars are my future, though.

Yes.

If cars are your future, then this is what's going to get you there.

This is your scholarship to go to school.

To work on cards.

No, I'm not seeing nothing that calls anyone.

Listen, it doesn't have to be on cards. This is just to pay for your school,

okay? Look, they have so many different ones.

What are you trying to say?

I'm saying they have a list of scholarships for minorities.

Different ethnicities.

I guess.

I mean, if you recommend it, it's not too bad, right?

How'd you sleep?

I slept okay.

How'd you sleep?

I slept pretty good.

Glad I was next to you.

Mm -hmm.

Would you like some tea?

Sure.

I appreciate it.

Yeah.

Figured you should probably drink something since I know you'll be right

night.

And you take care of the life out in the morning.

Where were you?

I was a judge.

A judge.

Always a judge.

Is there, like, something you're not telling me?

Like... Look, I was a judge.

Just had to do some personal business, that's all.

I came in, I didn't want to wake you.

What is personal business with us?

Why are you asking so many questions right now?

Because I want to know why is there all that money in your bag?

Why do you have so many questions?

We were just talking about things the other day.

Why the fuck are you going through my shit?

Right after we just had an argument about...

You looking more into me already?

I wasn't looking through your bag. Someone was calling you and I was seeing

phone and that's when I saw the money. And that gives you the right to answer

phone. I wasn't answering your phone. I was going to give it to you. I was going

to look at my phone. I was going to give it to you. Then why didn't I wake up?

Because that's not it. And now you're looking through my things and this ain't

right. What's wrong with you?

Why is there so much money in your bag?

Yo, what's up, Sean?

Oh, you back already?

Okay, back to bed.

Sean, I'm at Brittany's house right now.

Yeah, you can come through. I'll take you to look at it.

Okay.

I was saying, why is there so much money in your bag?

Look, I'm just holding on.

You're holding on to what, like $80 ,000?

Look, why are you stressing me so much?

Why are you doing to me? We just had a good day. How come we just can't have a

good one?

And I'm trying to argue with you. I just feel like you have so many secrets.

But you are though. I'm not arguing with you. I'm literally just asking you.

You can't trust me?

No, I cannot trust you. There's so many secrets.

I don't know what you're out doing with your brother all the time and then I see

all this money.

You're just not being honest with me. I feel like you're always hiding stuff.

I'm too honest if you want me to get. I just opened up to you the other day.

I can't keep doing that. I can't keep arguing with you.

Maybe if you were just more open with me, I wouldn't have to go see you.

I came here.

I laid face next to you. I woke up next to you, didn't I?

Okay.

Then I'll just stop telling you everything.

I was just thinking of you.

Call me when you get a chance.

Yo, yo Oh

I thought I didn't write, bro.

That shit gonna catch me in your dreams every time.

But look, bro, I gotta go out of town for a couple days, man. I need you to

up a spot.

You wanna do that?

How long you gonna be gone, bro?

Hey, don't worry about that, bro. I'm grown as fuck.

You know, it's different parties, man.

Man, get you a bad little female, sit your ass down next to this and chill.

That's about it. No fucking on my bed, bro.

It's a fucking whole room to figure it out, man.

You do whatever you got to do, you can even tell these hoes this your

Whatever you got to do, but I'm going to fuck you there. That's fine.

All right, then.

I'll hold it down.

Yo,

Brittany.

Y 'all just freed up some time. It's just faith.

Something came up right now, bud.

How about you pull up on me tomorrow?

I'll go ahead and I'll send you the location and everything.

Yeah.

I'm just trying to see.

All right. Sound good.

All right.

Yeah, the couch is nice.

Go have a seat.

All right.

So you don't live here?

No, but I'm going to be here for a couple of days.

When am I ever going to see, like, your house?

Why would you want to know that?

Why wouldn't I? I mean, I want to meet your family. I want to know more about

you and who you are.

Why would you want to meet them?

I mean, I feel like you know everything about me.

Like, you know where I live. Like, I don't know where you live or any of

I... I looked up your family.

I just wanted to know more about you. Like, I wasn't trying to be, like, in

business or anything, but I feel like you don't tell me anything.

What the fuck are you even talking about?

I mean, I just, I wanted to know more about you. I just feel like you don't

me anything. Why are you touching my name?

Look, I wasn't trying to, like, I don't know what you think, but it was just

more so just to look, I just want to know more about you. For what?

Because.

Like, I feel like you always come to my house, but I don't know anything about

you.

You have your brother and now you make your brother? Fuck him.

He don't do shit for me.

All he does is put me in positions of failure.

Every single fucking time. Always got me to clean up work.

I'm sorry.

Look, I don't want to hear that shit.

I think you gotta go.

You want me to leave?

Just don't plan on hearing from me.

Uh, hey.

I just want to apologize about earlier.

I wasn't thinking straight and didn't have the right mental space.

Just really tired of a lot of shit.

But if you come through, I'll go ahead and I can explain everything to you.

Just need one chance.

I didn't know my dad much.

My mom.

She got me dead.

It was fun.

But all I could really remember was Monday.

It was morning time.

And my mom needed to go to the liquor store because she ran out of the bottle.

She slows down the car and

stops.

And of

course I say, I love you too.

I open the door, I go stand on the curb.

And I waited about a month.

Two weeks, I mean, two.

And then she drives up.

And that was the last time I saw her.

Me thinking, you know, come back around.

I figured, you know.

And she never came back.

I guess you can call him a lover.

I

don't

really see nothing to be done for myself. I don't see nothing to show for

myself. It's hard right now.

It's hard to trust people.

I can't be abandoned no more.

And I'm afraid of that as soon as I feel like something might be close to safe.

That's exactly what I'm going to do. I'll let go.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I want you to know that everything he was through was not the same as he was.

And I will never, I will never forget that.

What? I'm seeing if they're dirty.

You're a mechanic.

I want to see if they're clean. What are you doing?

I can't go drinking.

I mean, you can, but look across the TV.

What are we even watching?

You don't even have anything on.

Mmm.

You ever heard of that airplane game, though?

Who the fuck is this man?

Oh, man. It's Ed.

Remember Ed from, um, um, um, down the block?

He in a movement because he got kicked out of his line for it.

Yeah. He's a hustler, bro.

He got a good job for it, man. All he wants is 4%. What type of guy want that?

4 % sound like a little too much, don't you think?

I thought it was shit.

Sounded like the minimum.

I don't know, bro.

Tell me why you trust him. Where you meet this nigga, eh?

Yeah, I saw him at the bike club.

He was down over there chilling.

He told me he was like, yo, I ain't seen you in a minute.

I linked up for a second.

He was straight. Told him about this job.

Now, I didn't believe him at first.

Then he showed me the bag, man.

I had all the money.

I told him when we get in there, we're going to make sure everything's

right? Oh, yeah, of course.

Make sure everything's straight. I'm going to meet him, though, all right?

meet with him.

Wait over here. Chill.

And I'll come back with the details.

Why can't I go in there with you?

New faces, man. You'd be kind of tripping off that.

All right, I guess.

All right.

I'll be right back. Just chill right here, all right?

All right, cool. Don't look nervous.

All right.

All right.

I'll call you back.

Hey, hey.

What's up, man? Josh, where you go?

Man, ready for this job.

I got somebody.

My little brother.

Your little brother?

Yeah, man. He a mechanic.

Go to school. He just want to make some money for school. That's it.

You trust your brother, man?

My little brother, man.

Family don't mean shit in this game, bro.

You got us, man.

Who else you got?

I guess you're right about that. I'm trusting you, man.

Fuck this up, man. I don't want to kill you. I like you.

Man.

Look.

Numbers already programmed in here.

I'm trusting you, man. Don't fuck this up.

Got you, man.

Call me.

Just call you from this phone, right? Yeah.

Everything's programmed in there. All the numbers you need.

All right, man.

Don't worry, man. We got you, eh?

Let me check.

Hold on.

Take that shit, bro.

That wasn't good.

Man, that wasn't good.

You should be able to get whatever you need with that.

All right, Ed.

All right.

Yeah, yeah.

It was emotional, bro.

I'll let you know how it go.

So fun.

Yo,

what you doing up there?

I'm walking in the mud and shit.

Dirtying up my shoes.

Hey man, play Emotion.

It's all Emotion. All we gotta do is go.

Get what we got to get.

Bounce. That's it.

Easy.

Nah, bro.

It got to be something.

Something got to give, bro. What do you say?

Thank you.

That's the initiative.

That's the first step.

Now I got to go get the rest.

How you feel about that?

I'm starting to feel like he's causing that deporting anymore.

My fucking brother, man.

Come on, man. Let's go home.

While we're on the field.

Mm -hmm.

Yeah. You look like you need a break.

Um, I wish, but, um, this is actually due in the morning, and it's 10 pages.

I know, I know, I know, but you've been working on this so much.

I be seeing you work hard and everything like that.

Can we give you a little break?

Um, no, but how about you help me?

10 pages. I'll get done faster.

Nah, nah, nah. That was a little too complicated. That was a little more

complicated.

I would help you.

Okay, do you have a phone on your phone?

Oh, I'm going to my study.

Oh, you're going to study in your phone? Yeah.

Yeah? What are you studying?

Remember that book that I was reading? No. What was it called?

You don't even remember.

See? Never do my work.

But I'm going to study.

I should be in English.

You can help me. Yeah? Do you want to help me?

What if for you?

Hello?

That was good, Josh.

What?

Okay, okay, I'll be there right now.

Baby?

I gotta go.

Where are you going?

Josh needs me.

I'll call you later. I'll come through later.

You need to come back.

I got you.

I'll call you.

Oh, really?

Yeah. Come look at this.

Too long on my glasses or nothing like that, but what'd that shit say?

It said, congratulations.

You got the scholarship!

You applied for another one?

I kinda did. I mean, I remember one night, I remember you

telling me to go on ahead and just... Keep applying as much as possible, but I

didn't really think it was going to come through.

Aw, you listed.

I'm so sorry.

So what you think? What you think? I should do it? Yes, you should do it.

Aw, and it's a full ride.

That means everything's covered. You don't have to worry about anything.

So I wouldn't have to worry about anything?

No.

All your dreams of becoming a mechanic are finally coming true.

Aw, I'm so proud of you.

Good job, babe.

Boom. We gotta go out and celebrate.

Mmm.

Okay, okay, okay.

Let's see.

How about you get me on this one?

Because I got it. Yeah, I'll treat you. I'll treat you.

You sure?

Yeah, I mean, we never really been on a date before, so I mean, I'll treat you

for the first date, you know, since you got the scholarship.

No, no, no. How about this? How about this? Just because I know I've been

a lot of time. I've been doing more mechanics. Yeah, I've also been with my

brother a lot.

I know the past couple days has been a little rough for us and things like

So, how about I treat you on this one?

You want to treat me on a date? Yeah.

So, where are we going to eat at?

I know you be picky. I know you be real picky. You know I love seafood.

Okay, seafood.

Yeah,

I think you should start early.

I mean, why not?

Keep you focused, you know, because you're always out with your bread all

time, I think.

I guess. I mean, I'm still kind of late at night.

What are your options to wait out?

Start school?

Early? Become a mechanic?

Or keep doing whatever it is that you're doing?

We'll figure it out.

You know, find a new thing.

It wasn't good enough.

But what?

But right now.

But right now. It's fucking time right now.

Not now. I'm gonna bring you right now. We're about to go out to dinner.

Nothing out.

Hey, Brittany.

Yes?

Uh, I gotta go, I gotta go shoot my brother some more real quick, but I'm

be right back, and then we're gonna go on ahead and we're gonna go to dinner. I

promise. You're leaving?

Look, all I'm gonna do is just go ahead and shoot Josh down to where he needs me

to take him, and then I'm gonna come back and I'm gonna get you when we go

to dinner.

Always leaving me.

You're not gonna come back till, what, five in the morning?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Two hours.

I'm going to call you.

All right.

I got some quicking.

Boy, man, it's done quicker. I don't know what it is. I came to you.

You know you don't need to park it for that mom car, right? I got this.

Now you know that ain't the fucking car.

What's going on? What's up?

Nope. Ended now.

All I need for you to do is stand my back.

You see, my brother Josh has always had my back ever since I was adopted.

He and my mom took me in.

Treated me like family.

And all the blood went to their own.

You know,

he's always had my best interest at heart.

You ain't making no money off me, what?

Trying to put money in your pocket?

You think you're up for college, right? I ain't getting nothing, okay? I got a

solution. No, but I don't even like this out here.

How much?

I can't lie to you.

This is my brother though, right?

I should have his back, right?

Take this shit.

Go in.

Be out.

Move.

Hey, babe.

I was going to ask you, before you come back, can you bring some wine so we can

celebrate?

Call me back.

Always do this.

Please, just call me back, but at least just let me know that you're okay.

Alright?

You don't want to tip back, it's fine, but just let me know that you're okay.

Ran away from heartbreak Got nothing in return for my

pain I never thought I'd be so empty So

alone and afraid

Wasn't looking for a

lover Nobody understood where I

I guess I love you, but I have to protect my love from potential offense.

I bet.

All right.

You ready?

Can we roll it?

And in three, two...

I'm getting closer, though.

Bitch, it was the closest the whole time.

Oh, my God. I'm so sorry. I was, like, two and two and two, and, like, it just

broke my wall.

This nigga too into what?

You wasn't doing nothing but listening.

Right?

Joke. Eye contact every now and then. Right?

Fucking George.

I'm not even talking to somebody over there. Who the fuck is he talking to?

Just focus.

Try to put all of the heat.
