I was a 16, I had just left from my friends house and was walking to the park to meet some other friends. It was kinda late, maybe midnight, but this was in the city so it didn't seem that late. I'm listening to my walkman with my headphones on and i get a tap on my shoulder. It's one half of a two man stick up crew, my friends older brother always told me about these dudes, how to always watch out that they didn't give a shit and would leave you dead or dying for your shit.
So i turn around and dude has a gun in my face, so close i can barely focus on anything else. he wants my cd player and headphones, plus whatever money or drugs i have.
I empty my pockets and have nothing on me, i show him my walkman and he starts laughing at the fact i was listening to a tape. While he is laughing another car passes that looks like a cop car, so he takes a quick glance and walks back to his man's ride.
I was sooo fucking scared. My friends and I were into some rough shit, but, the older guys all told us to watch for these dudes so much, it almost becomes a legend or myth, til it finally happens.
I told everyone at the park what happened and most of them said I was bullshittin cause I didn't get beat down or anything. I tried to play everything off, but I was truly 100% scared, i thought old buddy was gonna say fuck it and pull the trigger.
