Every block or neighborhood have their own style of a block party, they might have a carnival block party, or a regular block party. On 145Th street the block party was everyone getting out of their house and eating the food people provide. But during the party, Peaches isn't being herself and calls a neighbor out. While everyone is having fun and eating food, Peaches and J.T. get into a big fight, it results into violence.
It started when Sadie Jones told her daughter Peaches that Big Joe asked her to pick the date of the wedding, and Sadie tells her daughter. Peaches doesn't take it too well, and she stays angry during the party. Squeezie and Peaches have been best friends since they were born, thats about 15 years. She knew when something bugged Peaches without a word coming out of her mouth. But Peaches is in denial about there being a problem.
During the block party, a neighbor, J.T. comes to the party to get some free food. J.T. hung out with the wrong people, and he would always get into trouble. He was put in a Juvenile Detention Facility last christmas because he stole a lady's bag. Peaches started bad mouthing him when she saw him, her mood was getting out of hand. Peaches was getting louder, and really offended J.T. he walked away after she dissed him. Squeezie felt bad for J.T. but not for Peaches, she had no right to do what she did.
Peaches lightens up, and takes some food up to where J.T. lived, or where she thought he lived. When she came up the stairs to give him the food, he knocked it right out of her hand. J.T. started getting violent, he grabbed Peaches as if they were going to start a fight. Squeezie gets Big Joe because J.T.'s mother was sick, once he got there he helped J.T.'s mother. J.T. started to feel like a failure, because he couldn't even help his own mother. Big Joe found a place on 141Th street for J.T. and his mother, and Peaches gave them the 200 dollars she was going to use for her mother's wedding gift.
