“ its a simple job i will give you a few bags to sell, for very 3 bags you sell you get £10 and a half gram of smoke. The more you sell the more money you can get and the more smoke you can get, occasionally i may need you to run some smoke to some prearranged customers but its nothing to worry about.”
He took my number and i took his as he then began to weigh out what i thought was cannabis. I was abit unsure about doing this but at the same time i didnt want to be the guy in this group of friend who didnt have anything they could bring to the table especially if i wanted to see emily again which i did. I accepted his offer.
Chapter 4: decent into darkness
I spent the rest of the morning at this man's house, after a couple of minutes and me rolling a very bad joint he introduced himself.
“ my name is jordan, make sure you save me number as that, here are a few bags to get you started best way to sell em is to find people already smoking and try get them to buy from you.”
As he spoke he handed me 7 small bags. They were each full of cannabis and i realised he was expecting me to start as soon as i left. We must have sat smoking for a few hours before josh motioned that we should leave, as we did i hestitiantly thanked him for his offer and left with josh. We headed towards the park that was near jordans flat as josh knew their would be atleast one r two people who might be willing to buy some smoke from us. As we got closer i could see alot of teenagers and a skate park, josh half whispered to me as we approached.
“ if your gonna shift stuff anywhere it will be here trust me”
We entered the skatepark and were immediately aware of the smell of people smoking cannabis. I hesitantly walked up to a group of teens who were smoking and asked if any of them needed any more smoke, one teen replied.
“ sure how much you selling and how much per g ?”
I didnt know what to say at this point and was lucky that josh was with me as he stepped in and started rattling off a clearly well rehearsed sales pitch
“ well we got 6g its £10 per g but trust me this stuff is worth buying its the best smoke you will find in the area”
The teens bought the sales pitch and soon were pulling out their wallets, soon enough we had sold the 6 bags we were given and josh started rolling from the 7th. He explained that we would always be given an amount to sell and then our own smoke on top of that. We sat in the park and smoked what we had been given. It was pretty good stuff and didnt take long until i was feeling the familiar light headedness that came with being high. As we smoked josh showed me how to roll so it didnt turn out looking like a frankenstien smoke. After a few tried i managed to create something that was smokable and didnt look like it had been hashed together by a blind man.
We stayed at the park for another hour or two before josh signalled it was time to leave, he mentioned heading back to jordans and giving him the money so we could get our share. I thought this seemed like a smart idea and so we walked back to the block of flats and again got buzzed in. this time instead of knocking we just walked straight in. jordan was sat on the sofa still when josh motioned to me to hand over the cash we had. Jordan took one look at it and took the money from me before counting out £20 and handing it to me in £5 notes.
I took the money and left the flat. All though jordan had not said we needed to leave i needed to get home so i could get ready for school the next day and i also knew that my mum was still not to pleased with me after out little argument. I wasnt looking forward to this but i needed to get it done and out the way otherwise it was only going to get worse. The walk home was probably the worst i have ever experienced. Going home drunk was scary and nerve wrecking but this had me shaking. I had no clue how my mother was going to react at all.
