Jamaal was taking it easy, having a good day, honestly. His shades were tight to his head, summer in New York calling for just a white wife beater and a pair of basketball shorts. He couldn't wait to get home, turn on the AC in his little apartment above a bakery in Brooklyn. It was always too hot when he turned off the AC to let the electric bill rest. The ovens lay right below his bedroom; but that was no issue, not really. It was nice to wake up in the morning to the smell of baking bread and roasting pies. Couldn't beat it.
He was working at an advertising agency, a job he got from one of his mom's old friends, but it was Sunday and he had off, and this ice cream truck was unmissable. Waffle cones were made fresh every morning.
"Thanks, Juan," he told the man, who grinned at him and handed him out the dripping cone. "You're the goat."
"Yeah man, no problem," the vendor told him, and Jay was on his way, glad he had his dreads pulled up in a ponytail so he wouldn't get any ice cream in his hair. It was melting by the second in this heat; he twisted his tongue around the rim to get the caramel ice cream into his mouth, then had to lap a long stripe from his fighers. Caramel cookie dough hazelnut—this shit was the best.
He was heading by a park, an open space, and this was close to the exit for cars entering the Palisades. His big wireless headphones had Tupac playing; it wasn't like he was dancing or anything, but he wasn't necessarily paying attention.
