GAME OVA WAS A RIOT!
Brace yourself for the sequel that will
reshape perspectives -- Newly released,
The Carterchronic is slammin! See
excerpt below.
The McDonald’s All American High
School Basketball game was held this
year in Atlanta, Georgia. Once again,
Ricky Lyles led his team to another victory
after scoring thirty-one points on the
Eastern Allstars. He was once again
awarded the Most Valuable Player (MVP)
Trophy but on this particular trip, all family
was previously occupied with Evelyn in
labor at a hospital in Houston,Texas.
Therefore, Ricky and Hudson, one of JR’s
new security guards, attended the game
in Atlanta, Georgia.
After Ricky was presented with the MVP
trophy and was interviewed on television,
an interesting development occurred
which would transform his mental state
beyond expectation. First off, one of his
competitors came over to greet him.
“Chronic, good game man. You sure
earned that trophy. You were clearly
unstoppable,” said one of the opposing
ballplayers who had a scholarship to play
with the Duke Blue Devils.
“Thanks Damon and I hope you the best
at Duke. Watch out for them tar heels
because if I were to go to college, that’s
where I would be going,” said Ricky as
they shook hands and hugged each
other. Then, Damon ran off.
“Chronic, thanks for carrying the team
man. We could not have won that game
without all your heroics.”
“Hey thanks man! That really means a lot
coming from you big guy,” Ricky said.
“I just wanted to also apologize for my
words to you during that state
championship game. If I knew now what I
did not know then, I would have given you
much more respect and shut my mouth
up,” Jeremy started laughing and held out
his hand to give Ricky dap and he
responded in kind before Jeremy walked
off.
“Excuse me Ricky, how are you doing?
You played a very good game tonight.
Your sister will be proud to know that her
big brother is a basketball superstar.”
Ricky looked at what appeared to him to
be another fan who had found enjoyment
in his game. All he noticed was that this
fan was holding an infant child. Ricky just
smiled and said, “Thank you Ma’am.”
The lady came closer to Ricky and she
looked up in his face and held out the
infant child for Ricky.
“Ricky, this is your sister. She is named
after JR, Jamie Randella.”
Ricky was totally perplexed. He looked at
the woman and looked down at the baby.
“What are you talking about Ma’am? Did
my mom have the baby already? What
are you doing with the baby?”
The woman looked at Ricky with a proud
smile and responded with glee.
“Actually, this is my baby that JR and I
conceived just before he got married to
your mom.” Ricky’s excited face went
from a smile to a very somber look.
“Ma’am, that’s not true. JR does not have
another child. I’m his step son and he has
no other children.”
“Ricky, I’m sorry that you were not aware
but you may want to confirm with JR.
This is your baby sister. Now, aren’t you
excited?”
She smiled and leaned closer into Ricky.
Ricky stood there in a daze as the coach
called him over for another interview. He
heard no voice but instead he was feeling
real bad on the inside.
Doralee quickly told Ricky, “Hey, your
coach is calling you. Now Ricky, I don’t
think your mom is yet aware of our
newborn baby so if I were you I would not
bother to upset a pregnant mom but just
talk to JR.”
Ricky stared at her like she was a ghost in
a haunted house but with more surprise
than fear. His coach quickly called him
again and he suddenly snapped out of it
and ran over to where his coach was and
participated in another television
interview. He was stunned beyond words
and really did not have the mental
fortitude to focus on another interview, but
he nevertheless went through the motions.
After all the game interviews and
discussions, Ricky went to the locker
room and could not wait to get an
explanation from anybody about JR’s
other child. He was somewhat hurt and
disappointed and the flight back to
Houston, Texas was more of torture for
him than anything. Nevertheless, he
arrived at the airport at Houston to some
additional news that took him by surprise.
Who was there to meet Ricky? None
other than Jewel.
“Hey there handsome! Congratulations
on the game!”
“Thanks Jewel! Where is JR?”
”Let me hold that nice trophy for you as I
give you the
exciting news.” Jewel took the trophy that
Ricky carried in his hand.
“Oh! I forgot to tell you Jewel that Mr.
Hudson extended his stay in Atlanta. He
told me that he had already informed you
guys but he did see me off the plane in
Atlanta.”
“Right! Hudson shared that before he left.
Now, ready for the good news?”
“What’s the good news?”
“Your mom’s water broke and she had to
be rushed off to the hospital. So, JR and
Teralyn accompanied her.”
“Really! So she’s about to have the baby
then?”
”Well, let’s just say she is about to go into
labor and hopefully you will be the proud
brother to your baby sister real soon.
Aren’t you excited?”
“Well, yes Ma’am! I think I really need to
talk with JR though.”
Ricky and Jewel were walking towards the
baggage claim area to get his suitcase.
“That’s fine sweetheart! JR is at the
hospital and we will be going there shortly
to cheer your mom on.”
Jewel grabbed Ricky’s cheeks but noticed
he had a very sad looking persona.
Jewel, who sensed all hurt in the family
like a hunting dog sensed deer. She held
Ricky’s hand and stopped him in the
middle of the airport.
“Ricky, what is wrong baby? You seem
so different.”
Ricky’s eyes started flooding with tears
and they begin to trickle down his face.
”Jewel, I did not know that JR had another
baby.” Jewel pulled Ricky closer to her.
“Another baby! Ricky what are you talking
about? The only other baby JR has is
you, and you show ain’t no baby. What
are you talking about?”
Ricky started sniffing as his nose became
real stuffy and the tears were flowing.
Jewel got out some handkerchiefs from
her purse and started wiping his tears.
“Ricky, come let’s sit down over here for a
moment. What is wrong baby? Now, tell
me what are you talking about? Where
did you get this information from?”
Ricky sat down next to Jewel and then he
shared with her his hurtful experience
regarding Jamie Randella.
“Well, after the game tonight, this woman
with a baby came and told me that JR was
the father. She showed me the baby and
the baby’s name was Jamie Randella.”
Ricky began to cry louder like a little
baby. Jewel embraced him and wiped his
tears away.
“Its okay baby. You can best believe that I
will get to the bottom of this. What was
her name Ricky? Did she tell you her
name?” Ricky took a deep breath.
“Yes Ma’am. Her name was Miss Doralee
Mayberry and the baby was less than one
year old. She said that she was made
pregnant by JR right before he got
married.”
Jewel’s eyes got extremely wide as she
heard the name and her mouth even
opened up as wide as she could open it.
She continued to embrace Ricky and rub
his head while also wiping the tears from
his eyes.
While they were sitting down, a group of
people had gathered right across from
them who recognized Ricky and they saw
him crying. Nevertheless, this one guy
who asked was everything okay, asked for
an autograph after Jewel said everything
was fine.
“I’m sorry Sir but now is not the time for an
autograph. Please understand okay,
thank you.”
The guy walked off and repeated Jewel’s
words to the small group and they
disbanded right away. Jewel embraced
Ricky like he was her son and sat there
wrapped up around him, just letting him
vent his feelings. From a distance, it
looked rather awkward but when one
would get close up, it was obvious that
she was consoling a young kid and not a
grown man.
“Ricky, what else did this lady tell you?”
“Well, she just said that she and JR had
this baby girl and that my mom would not
know anything about it but that JR would.
She also told me that it would not be good
to mention to my mom because she is
pregnant and it might hurt her. She
showed me the baby and told me Jamie
Randella was my baby sister.”
Jewel became immediately furious with
both me and Doralee but at this time she
was so upset with Doralee. She thought
to herself, there is a way to handle
business and for Doralee to impose all
this on this child is totally heartless and
unfair. I can’t believe that JR. No wonder
he was paying her all that darn money.
He’s having a serious love affair with this
woman. Am I stupid or what? And I
thought I knew everything about him and
his associates, family and friends. I feel
so stupid, so ignorant, so taken advantage
of. These men out here are nothing but
lousy dogs. Oh well, I will take care of
Ricky and next up, JR and Doralee will
feel my wrath. I won’t be going out like
this. Oh hell naw! Those idiots done
messed with the wrong woman! Having a
love affair at my clueless expense, oh hell
naw! All I got to say is some real dirt bout
to go down now!
“Did you look at the baby Ricky?” Jewel
reengaged despite her depressing
thoughts.
“Yes Ma’am! For a moment I looked but I
didn’t look that hard though.”
Ricky had stopped crying and he seemed
to be doing better having talked it out.
“Okay baby, you okay now?”
“Yes Ma’am! I just didn’t know JR had
another baby.”
“Sweetie, learn a lesson from this. We
don’t know all the truth yet but you can
best believe that Auntie Jewel will fix all of
this okay?”
“Okay Ma’am!”
“Now, I need you to make me one
promise.”
“What is that?”
“Your mom is going through a major
hurdle right now with pregnancy and
labor. We don’t want to say anything to
her to upset that process because her
time now is very crucial. I promise I will
get to the bottom of this and I will handle it
from here okay?”
Ricky just stared at the floor like he was in
a daze.
“Ricky, do you understand?”
“Yes Ma’am? I don’t want my mom to be
hurt while trying to have a baby.”
“Exactly! She does not deserve that and
we won’t bring that on her, okay?”
“Okay Ma’am. I don’t feel right talking to
JR either about it.”
“Good Ricky! Let grown folks handle
grown folks business and then I will have
JR talk to you. I’ll talk to him first and
have him explain everything to you. Fair
enough?
“Yes Ma’am! That’s fair enough.”
“Okay hun, let’s go get your luggage and
then we will get out of this airport.”
Jewel stood up and kissed Ricky on the
cheeks and hugged him once again.
“Also, we need to celebrate your winning
the MVP trophy and make certain you
process that like it is, a very big deal.”
Ricky seemed to have started feeling
better as time was passing by, as both he
and Jewel continued walking towards the
baggage claim area.
“Ricky, do you feel like signing
autographs now because the crowd is still
following us?” Ricky smiled.
“Sure Ma’am, I don’t mind now. I’m
okay.” Ricky signed several autographs
before he and Jewel proceeded on to the
baggage claim section of the airport so
Ricky could get his luggage. After they
got the suitcase, Jewel took him out the
exit of the airport where a security officer
and driver from JR’s estate was awaiting
them.
