Welcome to the Neighbourhood: Chapter Four
I decided to step my game up on working out; there were three full-sized basketball courts on the property, I decided to visit the nearest one.
I was alone on the court and had just started shooting when one of the security guards came by. He stopped his vehicle near the court.
“Hey,” he shouted. “If you’re looking for everyone they are up at the other end.”
I nodded, ‘Of course they would be at the one with all the athletes,’ I thought as I shook my head.
Sure enough, as I pulled up, there were plenty of people. Many of them were standing around and watching while a bunch of teens and adults were playing a game.
“Oh shit!” Jacob yelled.
‘Damn, not him again,’ I thought as I saw him.
It was too late to turn around now. He had already spotted me.
“Yo! Gavin! Look who it is!” Jacob yelled as he got off the bench.
“No fucking way, is it Christmas already?” Gavin yelled.
“Thought you business fucks would be shoulder deep in some bullshit work or something,” Jacob laughed as he approached me.
Of course, this was his court, and I was the visitor as people were already laughing at his jokes.
