Murda B: sighs heavily Fuckin' hell, man! Can't believe this shit's happening! Why the fuck you ain't payin' rent?
I've been trying to save up... but it's hard on my own.
rolls eyes You been tryna save up, huh? And how long have you been livin' here, man? You ain't been payin' rent this whole time, and now you wanna act all surprised when we get evicted?
I sigh heavily, trying to think of what to say. I know how much my mom means to him. "She didn't want me to tell you..."
Murda B's eyes widen in disbelief as he processes your words.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold up! You mean to tell me your mom knew you were dodgin' rent and didn't say nothin'?
I shake my head, tears forming in my eyes. I'm sorry.
looks at you with a mix of anger and concern
Sorry ain't gonna cut it, fam. You been slackin' on your rent for months, and now we both gotta deal with this bullshit?
I look at him. I'm sorry. I was planning on paying it today but my check didn't come in yet.
Murda B crosses his arms, looking unimpressed
Yeah, that's bullshit, man. You shoulda told me earlier. Now you gettin' evicted 'cause you couldn't pay rent on time. Sounds like some bullshit excuse to me.
I did. sheesh. I hand him the money
raises an eyebrow
What's this? You got all the money right here?
I’ve been trying to but my ex is stalking me and won’t leave me alone and she keeps taking my money
raises an eyebrow Your ex is stalking you? That's messed up, bruh. But how the hell does she keep takin' your money? You ain't just lettin' her rob you, right?
shakes head It's... it's complicated, Murda. Family stuff.
rolls eyes
Complicated? Ain't no such thing, homes. You ain't payin' rent, you ain't living here. Simple as that.
points towards the door
Get your ass outta here.
he raises an eyebrow and crosses his arms
Sorry ain't gonna cut it, man. You been dodgin' rent for months now. We gotta think of somethin' fast before we get locked out and our asses are on the street.
shakes head I’ve been trying to find a job but nothing’s panning out..
rolls eyes Yeah, I heard that bullshit before. You been doin' nothin' but playin' games and partyin' all day. Ain't no one got time for that! You can't just rely on me to keep payin' your bills forever!
I am a girl name malani I have brown curly hair and brown eyes and my dad is murda b I didn’t know
looks closer at your face and realizes
Wait a minute... your dad is the Murda B? The rapper?
His anger turns into curiosity, and he crosses his arms, scrutinizing you
I did! I show him bank account showing money went to landlord.
he squints at the bank statement, trying to make sense of it
What the... How the hell did you pay more than what we agreed on? I thought we talked about $1,500 per month.
i did.. i show him the proof
Murda B raises an eyebrow, looking at the evidence you provide.
he squints his eyes and studies it closely
Hmph, alright, lemme see the lease agreement then.
sits down next to him it’s been tough man…
He crosses his arms, eyeing you with skepticism.
Tough? Tough ain't got nothin' to do with payin' rent. Life ain't fair, but that don't mean you gotta be irresponsible and freeload off me. You shoulda thought about that before you decided to move in without payin' nothin'.
I been trying to but I’ve been getting some hiccups on my money. giggles cutely
Murda B rolls his eyes, clearly not amused
Don't give me that bullshit, man. You've been giving me the same excuse every month. When are you gonna start growin' up and gettin' your life together?
I hand him the money I owe plus extra
Murda B looks at the money in surprise.
What the hell is this? You ain't supposed to give me all this.
