Liese barely had the paper bracelet around her arm before she jetted off behind her sister. “Slow down before you fall!” I called as they hurried over to a small merry-go-round. While I watched them play, I thought, those were my darlings. I would be damned if I let my ex and that skinny-ass bitch take them away from me.

I took a seat at a table close enough to keep an eye on them. They each had a cup filled with tokens, so it would be a while before they were ready to leave, which was fine with me. I reached inside my purse for my anatomy book and got to reading, but made sure I looked up every few seconds to see if the girls were still in my view.

“Deja, is that you?”

My head snapped up in a start. If someone was calling me by my stage name, then that meant they knew I danced at Scandalous. I looked at the woman standing in front of me and felt a wave of relief when I noticed it was Treasure. “Hey,” I replied, then looked around to see if anyone had heard her. The last thing I wanted was to put my business in the streets.

Treasure looked fabulous as ever and had me reaching up to comb my fingers through my spikes. She was wearing a pair of low-rise jeans that hugged her small hips and a tight blue shirt that cinched her tiny waist and big-ass breasts. Her long golden hair perfectly framed her face. She was the total package.

“What are you doing here?” I said as my eyes traveled down to the adorable little boy holding her hand. I would have never imagined her as a mother.

“Thought I’d bring my nephew out so he could burn off some energy,” she said while stuffing his pockets with tokens. “Okay ... go ahead ... and stay where I can see you.” Grinning, he nodded and dashed off to join the rest of the kids who were near the front stage, dancing with Chuck E. Cheese.

“That boy is a handful!” Treasure groaned as she flopped down on the bench across from me.

“Tell me about it. I have two.” I pointed to Liese and Arissa, who were holding hands and dancing around with all the others.

Treasure glanced down at her phone, then over at my book. “What are you reading?”

I looked up to see if she was curious or just being nosy. I wasn’t quite sure which one it was. “I’m in school, studying to be a nurse.”

Her eyes lit up and she appeared to be truly impressed. “That’s whassup. I’ve been thinking about going back to school someday but I’m not sure what I wanna be when I grow up.” She giggled like a schoolgirl and I joined in with her. “You working tonight?” she asked.

I nodded. “Mmm-hmm, I’ll be there.”

Treasure leaned back on the bench and I caught her studying me. “I’m curious ... as smart as you are ... what made you decide to strip?”

I dropped my head and blushed.
