"I see good qualities in a bad girl." - Unknown
" Yo, Tes, you don't know how much I appreciate this."
" It's cool Ree."
" I mean ain't nobody ever gave a fuck about me. So thank you."
I just nodded my head. I know the feeling. My moma don't know, my daddy don't care. I got so many sisters that I don't even talk to anymore. I left when I was 14 1/2. I didn't have nothing but the clothes on my back. My little sister Vanessa left when she was 16. I'm two years older, but that's a story for a different time.
" These properties are hella nice Raichell."
" Well Tesla, you know how I do. "
We all laughed.
" Yes I do honey."
Raichell is a cool white woman I met before I started stripping. She tried her best to get me to stop dancing but I like fast money. She took care of me when I was 15. She's getting up there in age and I plan on taking care of her. She gave me everything I needed and even more of what I wanted. Everyone thought I mixed because she's pure Caucasian with blonde hair and icy blue eyes, but her husband, poppa C is Jamaican. I'm all African American. They just looked like the perfect parents and I looked like their biracial child, but I was not . I love all my blackness.
" So, Reena, we've looked at four properties. Which one did you like? Honey my feet are purring in these Louie pumps and I'm ready to see my man. Pick a house please." Raichell said to her. We all laughed .
" I fell in love with the second one. I want that one." She said matter of factly.
" Are you sure? This is serious stuff."
" Yes. Positive."
" Alright. "
We got all the paperwork together.
" How much was the Condo?"
" $279,000"
" Damn, Tes, You paid all that in cash? I could have found something a lot cheaper."
" It's alright. But I need all of it back."
" Of course."
I walked to my car and she walked to hers.
" Fame, wanna go out to eat or something? My stomach is talking to me."
" Yeah, where too?"
" Ummm It doesn't even matter at this point. "
" You know what, lets do Dinner instead. "
" Time? And place? "
" Let's go to Díor 16 and let's do around 7:30ish. "
" Alright lovely. "
" Kay. "
We sent kisses each others way. I headed back uptown to my condo. I need an outfit to wear. Díor 16 is an upper scale restaurant and the food is beyond amazing.
