Stop. Stop. Stop.

l'm just saying, she might have something.

-What is all of this?

Half these cats out here trying to kill me,

you know that.

-True.

-Hey, look. Forget that.

You know where l got the numbers?

-Where?

-That fortune cookie from your job.

-You're lying.

-No, l swear to God.

-Are you serious?

-Yes.

Boy, how you gonna win off my fortune

cookie and not tell me? Where is my cut?

Your cut? You don't be hooking me up.

-When l come over and l get the kung pao

-l hook you up all the time.

Yeah, with the sample.

You don't even have to go

to design school.

You could start your own shoe company.

Yeah, l guess l could.

That is all you been talking about

since you were 9 years old. This is it, Kevin.

-You okay?

-Yeah, just....

l mean....

Man, l don't know, Stacie. Man, it's a lot.

It's a lot. l'm not even gonna lie to you.

l know, but trust me, l got you.

You're good.

-Oh. l'm worried now.

-Okay? You know.

Hey, Kevin.

Hi.

Hold on.

Okay.

What's up, Nikki?

-l owe you an apology.

l was so rude to you yesterday

and l been feeling horrible ever since.

Look, it's cool.

You know, l understand.

-l ain't tripping. It's all good.

-No.

l don't think you do, Kevin.

l've always thought

that you were so fine.

Yesterday, when you came up to me,

l guess l just didn't know what to say.

What?

Wow. Heh.

l was hoping maybe you'd give me

a chance to make it up.

Are you busy tonight?

Hell, no, he ain't.

Good.

My mother's gonna be gone.

Maybe we can go out somewhere...

...and then later you can come back

and keep me company.

You'll let me do that?

l mean

Cool. Yeah, we can

l promise, Kevin, you will never, ever...

...ever forget tonight.

See you later.

Later, if you want, you can

Ieave your panties at my house.

My house.

Damn, Kev. Did she touch your face?

Yeah, and my stomach.

That ass is priceless!

That's what you like?

That's what you like?

Please tell me you did not

just fall for that.

That b*tch is beyond trifling.

-Come on, Stacie.

l smell jealousy.

-Jealousy is in the air.

-No, no, no. It is so obvious.

Only reason she came over,

she heard about your ticket.

Wait. You saying my boy

ain't good enough...

...to get a girl like Nikki Swayze

without money?

No. What l'm saying is yesterday

she handed you a bag of sh*t, right?

Today, suddenly she wants to screw you.

Is that a coincidence?

Come on.

-Whatever. Do what you wanna do.

Stace, don't be like that.

-Stacie just being Stacie, man.

-l ain't got time for this.

You need to be thinking about

where you gonna take Nikki.

-Already got it covered.
