Chapter 16

Live Your Life

“Girl, it’s been too long since we’ve hung out. I’m glad you were able to meet me for lunch,” Shana said when she sat down with Passion at Twist restaurant in Phipps Plaza.

“Me too. I’ve turned into a soccer mom since leaving the strip club.”

“Well it seems to be working for you because you look great. Very well-rested and healthy, like you’re taking care of yourself.”

“I’m trying but I do miss hanging out with you ladies at the club sometimes. We had a lot of fun there.”

“Yeah, but you ain’t missing nothing. We all tryna get where you at. Off the pole with an excellent sponsor, who can financially take care of our needs. So you’ve hit the jackpot with Deion. Who would’ve thought somebody could tame Deion’s ass. Well not tame but you know what I mean.”

“No I don’t know what you mean, Shana.”

“I mean Deion ain’t gon’ never be no one-woman man, but you know. But I’m sure you don’t care. You living in the big house, don’t have to work. Got all your bills paid. So what if he fucks around.” Shana popped, sipping on her martini.

“What do you mean… you heard Deion was fucking around? Is it one of the girls at the strip club?”

“Nah, he hasn’t been hanging out at the strip club for a while. But Kecia that work at that club said she saw him in the Gucci store with some chick. But who cares, you straight.”

“I care,” Passion said, getting choked up.

“Girl, I didn’t mean to upset you. We both been in this game, we know how it works but you on the winning side right now.”

“How am I winning Shana when he’s out in the Gucci store with some other woman? That’s not winning to me.”

“Oh fuck, you like really in love wit’ that nigga.”

“Yes, I’m in love with him. He ain’t some guy in the club I’m dancing for to get tips.”

“I mean, come on, Passion, that is how you met him.”

“True. It might’ve started that way but that’s not supposed to be our ending. Do you know the woman’s name he was at the Gucci store with?”

“No, Kecia said she had never seen the chick before. But Passion, it’s probably nothing. Just some flavor of the week Deion was trickin’ on.”

Passion didn’t want Deion fuckin’ around with anybody else period. But if so, she did hope Shana was right, that the girl was just some flavor of the week. Unfortunately, Passion’s instincts were telling her that wasn’t the case at all. For a while now she felt things were changing between her and Deion but the last few weeks something had been really off. He had been spending less and less time at her house and when he did come over it was really to just check up on Demonte. Passion tried to tell herself that Deion was simply busy running the streets due to work but she could no longer lie to herself.
