"The continuous smell of whiskey is never any good.
It started out fine, but he cheated
And she never thought he would.
Not with a blonde or a brunette
That'll make a man go full throttle
It was love in a bottle.
She's in way too deep.
There's no way out.
It's like being on the deep end of a pool.
No one hears you scream or shout......"
So, the name's Whitney. I've been on and off these streets for some time now, you know? I mean, I gotta get my bread some way or another. My parents never cared about me, and they always told me I would be nothing. Coming home from a school where everybody had something going for themselves was kinda hard. They all sitting up there with their fancy cars, clothes, and grades, but then there was me. I hated school with a passion, and the only reason I ever went was so I ain't have to go to home. You know, no one wants to go to the crib everyday seeing their ma strung out on crack with a different guy in the house every time you walk in. Ain't no telling where my pops at, man. He left us a long time ago, and stuff been going downhill since then. But aye? You wanna know something even crazier? I'm 18 years old with a baby on the way. I mean, it wasn't no romantic intimate relationship or nothing. I was raped by one of my ma pimps. And I don't even know what imma do with it.
"Wassup Whitney, girl? What we getting into today?" This was the sound of my girl Keisha. Me and her met when I started working the streets. We the same age and stuff, but she been in the game longer than me.
"Keisha. You know I can't have too much fun with this baby in my stomach!" I said, rubbing my stomach smoothly.
"Oh yeah, that's right, man." Keisha paused for a moment. "So, no booze or nothing man?"
We both started laughing cause we knew that wasn't up for questioning. The pregnant spit be blowing my cool, man.
"On the real tho, Whitney, we can go make some easy bread tonight."
I sparked up then, "And how's that?"
"Okay, you know Richard and Randy Williams?" She asked.
"Talkin' bout RanMan and Ric?"
"Yeah, yeah! Them!" Keisha exclaimed. "Well...all we gotta do with them is give them a little satisfaction, and we out tha' door with 1 grand!"
"One grand? How you got that deal?"
"They said they had heard about how I get down, and I put in a good word for you." Keisha said with mischievously.
"Ain't they like 40 or something?! I don't wanna be out here looking like a bimbo, girl."
Keisha looked at me vague facial expression. "What in the world do you think you been doing?"
She had a point, and so I went along with her plan.
"Well, Keisha, girl I'll call you up later when I get ready. Alright?"
"Alright girl."
I walked to the convenience store to grab me some chips. After taking forever in there, I started back home. On my way, I ran into this fine guy. It was weird cause I ain't never seen him around in the hood. He had that swag that I liked, you know? The saggy pants, white tee, and gold chains. Whew! He even had a fine face to match, man. When he walked by I put a lil umph in walk. I started twisting a bit so he could notice all my lusciousness. That always have em going crazy!
