“ T his semester we will be focusing on childhood learning patterns…” My new professor, Professor Gaines, explained the syllabus while the class took notes. I tried to keep focused on her lecture but it was difficult.

Two weeks had passed since I spoke to my mother and I was feeling slightly guilty. We hardly ever fought but I had to stand my ground. She was dead wrong for going back on her promise.

Because of her bullshit I had to apply for student loans and get in debt, which I wanted to avoid. Hell, I don’t even have a credit card. I was serious about keeping my credit good and my name clean.

After the stress of securing a loan and dipping into my savings for my books, I needed to relieve some stress. Quan had been texting me a lot this week and finally we were going out tonight.

Since the night I met him, he’d been on my mind. In between filling out loan applications and cursing my mother out in my head, I daydreamed about him wrapping his arm around me and pulling me in close.

He had a sophisticated thug appeal to him that made me wet. He was def the type of nigga that brings out your inner hoe. I couldn’t wait to see him.

When he told me he was taking me out, he demanded that I wear something nice.

After class, I rushed home to get dressed for our date. I poured my body in a high waist gold pencil skirt and a white leotard that exposed my back. I slid my French tipped toes in some black open toe stilettos. My hair was pulled in a slick bun while my lips were matte nude and my faux eyelashes were on fleek.

Misting myself with my Chanel perfume, I waited for him to pick me up. While staring at my phone to check the time, Nova called me. We hadn’t spoken since she stormed out of my mother’s engagement announcement.

Since I was currently mad at our irresponsible ass mother, I picked up.

“Wsup,” I asked, while peeping out my blinds in anticipation for Quan.

“Skye, I met my father,” she started.

“What are you talking about?” Her father had been dead since she was born.

“Antoinette lied to me! She fucking lied all these years! He’s alive! We took a paternity test and did a rush for the results. He came by the other day…” she began to explain.

With every word she told me about our mother being a side hoe, my stomach did back flips. I cringed as the truth came to light. Perhaps what Rico’s children said about their relationship was true. She had been fuckin’ him while their mother was alive and when she died they made their move to get married.

“Are you there?” Nova asked in between her tears.

“I’m here, sis. I can’t believe that bitch! I cannot believe she did this to you, to us!” I yelled. My mother was a hoe who put men before her children. In retrospect it had always been this way.
