An hour later, Charisse was knocking on the door. She strolled in looking like she had just had a hard day’s work, and Brianna knew that couldn’t be the case. As the true first baby girl of Herman, Charisse had rarely lifted a finger growing up. She was doted on like a princess with no regard or concern for the effect this imbalance of treatment would have on Brianna. Charisse was kind enough to share nearly all of her goodies with her older sister; everything except clothes and shoes. It only took one time for the girls to learn that wasn’t a good idea. When their father saw Brianna in one of the outfits he’d purchased for Charisse he made her undress immediately.

He’d said, “Since you wanna wear other people’s clothes we’ll be getting yours from the Goodwill from now on.”

To take it a step further he went to the Goodwill himself to pick out the items, making sure to get things that were out of style and tacky. He came home with bags and bags of the ugliest clothes Brianna had ever seen. It was her first year of junior high school and that shabby gear earned her the nickname Bri-tacky. That nickname followed her through her senior year, even after he’d allowed her mother to resume her shopping at regular stores.

“What’s going on?” Brianna asked.

“Girrrrl,” Charrise started dramatically, “Daddy’s restaurants are being closed down.”

“Umph,” Brianna shrugged, “Why should I care?”

“I know, I know… you hate him, but just hear me out. Turns out he hasn’t been paying his taxes and the IRS finally caught up with him. We’re only operating out of one location, he had to fire all of the staff and now, it’s only me, momma, and Jonathan working for him.”

“Damn! For real.”

“For real! I’m sick of this shit! He’s as mean as ever now… been talkin’ to momma any old kinda way. Putting down Jonathan… he even went off on me the other day. This stress really has him going crazy!”

“Now ya’ll know how I felt all those year.”

“True… but we need your help.”

“We? Who the hell is we?”

“Ok… let me rephrase… I need your help.”

“I’m not doing anything that involves helping that man!”

“Don’t do it for him… do it for me. You’re sister… the rest of us are suffering for his mistakes. I don’t have anybody else to ask.”

“For the record it wasn’t just him. Momma never stood up for me… and Jonathan… don’t even get me started on Jonathan.”

Charrise scooted close to her sister. She pouted and put on her puppy dog eyes, “Please. I’m begging you… and you know I do not beg! Help your sister out.”
