Little Sammy

 “Are you okay Sammy?” Gracie asked.

Sammy took a hard look at Gracie, “Do I look like I’m okay? That stupid bastard took my lunch money, and I’m hungry Gracie.”

Gracie giggled, “Big Darnel sure has a way of pushing us all around.”

After being humiliated in front of the whole school, Little Sammy went to his Christian friends but all they did was pray, Sammy needed some help quick. Maybe his cousin was the answer to his prayers because after he left his Christian crew to be honest they loved God but when it came time to meet him most of them always backed out.

Little Sammy was tired, Big Darnel and all of his stupid goons had been bullying Little Sammy every since he started school. Not only had Little Sammy been sent home bruised up but they were using him to cheat on test. It was clear that Little Sammy was fed up with stupid bullies so he turned to his street cousins for some help.

“Wuz up little Cuddy? Ain’t seen you in a while,” Big Terry said to his favorite cousin.

Sammy took his sun glasses off.

Big Terry couldn’t believe his eyes, “Daaaaamn what happened to yo face?”

“That’s what I came here for, I need some backup. This guy Big Darnel and his gang are really going to kill me if I don’t do something,” Sammy explained.

The next day Little Sammy showed his cousin who Big Darnel was. As soon as Big Terry saw him he shoved him up against the school building, “Listen here Little Hitler, if you got a problem with my peeps then we need to settle this now.”

Big Darnel was shook, he nearly pissed his pants after Big Terry manned up on him.

Once Big Darnel knew Little Sammy had backup that was it. He never messed with Little Sammy again. As a matter of fact, he’s been nice to Sammy even til present day. I guess even street folks have some place in the world. When Little Sammy grew up he paid his cousins back by putting them all on their feet and they still have his back til this day. Every battle has a different solution, Little Sammy knew he was smaller than his enemies so he found an equivalent solution and he won. To him, there was no other way out, he had nothing to lose because his entire future was at stake. At some point eventually people have to fight; in Little Sammy’s case, he could only take so much.

The End.
