Lucid Dreams

“I’ll fuck with y’all in a minute. I’m going to the pool,” Harvey announced, eyeing a pretty brown chick he wouldn’t mind sliding off with. “Hold up,” Dai stopped him. Digging into his fanny pack, he pulled out a couple of makeup wipes. Harvey looked down at his hand, confused. He was accustomed to Dai wearing bone straight hair and black nails but makeup is where he drew the line. “The fuck is that?” Nite asked, snatching one from his hand. “Why do you have makeup wipes?” “Nigga, it’s 2021. These hoes will catfish you in a minute. You take Kelly Rolland home and wake up with Ving Rhames.” “So what are the wipes for?” Harvey asked, still confused. Dai was crazy as hell, but he had a point. Harvey had woken up to wigs, press-ons, lashes, and waist trainers in his bed. “Damn, do I have to explain everything to yo ass? So look, when she laughing and not paying attention, take a wipe and quickly run it down one side of her face. If you step back, you have the before and after.”
