So today after i got off work i went down to the Y n lift as usual when I figured id shoot some hoops since it was a perfect day outside. I do this prolly 2-3 times a week, pretty much anytime im off by 5ish. Coincidentally around 6 o clock is generally the time the kids come from Adelphoi Village which is basically a mentoring program for inner city kids that kid in trouble but show potential in school and what not... so ive been hoopin with these lil ninjas pretty much all summer and had noticed the one kid alwayssss rockin cargo shorts n jean shorts n stuff to hoop... i ragged on him about it a lil in he played it off real sweet like it aint even bother him... so as time goes on i realize homie is alwayssss hoopin in his school clothes
well the last time i saw dude (prolly 2 weeks ago) i decided I was gunna bring some shorts for him so I grabbed 2 pairs of old shorts (some NC jordan shorts with deck stain on them and another pair of old j shorts) and threw them in the back of the whip...
fast forward to today... im out there hoopin in the van pull up so we get some pickup games crackin n what not n towards the end im like yo Murph dont leave till i holla at u son..
as there walkin out im like yo i brought some old shorts for u to keep at the spot so u aint gotta sweat out ur school stuff n as im sayin this i remembered I also keep a pair of beater lebron iv's n the trunk in case im caught somewhere witout ankle support
so im like yo you know what matter of fact i got these kicks for u too...
the smile on sons face was priceles... son litterally hugged me. i dunno bout yall but for me as a young black man its pretty damn rare to be huggin another young black dude
it was

i felt so good about myself i decided to make this post and oddly enough at the same exact time a random biddie tryna holla on FB... instan karma FTW
