When my uncle called and told me that Khalid was on his way around to chill with me, I couldn’t believe it. Vince never let me have company, because he didn’t want people to know about my mom, but I wasn’t about to question him on why he changed his mind today. I made sure everything was in place, and I pulled out some microwave popcorn so that we could watch a movie. I was so excited about seeing Khalid, because I hadn’t seen him since before the snowstorm began, when he got in trouble.

When he got there, he seemed a little upset about something, but I didn’t want to question him in front of my uncle. I graciously took the food that he offered from the corner store, and somewhat rushed Vince out of the house so that we could finally catch up.

“Khalid, I am so happy to see you,” I said to him with a wide smile on my face while we embraced. He hugged me back just as tight, and then we sat down to eat and catch up.

“I’m going to kill your uncle one of these days,” he said to me between bites of his food.

I had to pause and look at him, not believing my ears. He looked beyond pissed. I had never seen him like this before.

“Why you say that?” I asked him, curious as to what brought on these thoughts. I had yet to confide in him about what was going on with me and Vince and my mother’s situation, so something else must have gone down to cause his ill feelings toward my uncle. Not that I was opposed to Vince being killed, but I still had things to get from him, and I wasn’t ready for him to die just yet. I hated Vince more than anyone, because I couldn’t understand why he treated me like he did. Him being murdered wouldn’t be all that bad, but then I would be forced into foster care. I was torn between wanting him gone and maybe just dealing with the shit to stay free.

“He’s sleeping with my mom behind my dad’s back, and my mom acts like I don’t know what’s going on.”

Once again, I was left speechless. Khalid went ahead and told me about Vince’s visit over there the other day, and although he didn’t see the actual sexual act, he heard it, and when Vince left, he was standing in the hallway. He was mad because his mom made him go back into his room and threatened to beat his ass if he told his father Vince was there. Apparently this had been going on for a while, because from what Khalid told me, Vince wasn’t the only one from the crew that visited his mother’s bedroom.

“Say it ain’t so, Khalid,” was my only response. I couldn’t believe everything he just told me.

“Oh, it’s so. My mom’s a ho.”

I felt bad for Khalid. I had no idea his mom got down like that, and I knew if that shit got out, it would be over for him at school.
