The Candy Shop part 2 Kiki Swinson
Easy Come Easy Go
Whoever said that life was what you made it, lied. I knew that I had made a lot of wrong choices in my life, but I had also made some good ones and stil came out on the losing end. I literal y sucked dick and al owed men to either fuck me in my pussy or my ass for money that I didn’t get to spend. Not only that, I had a fucking dope habit and Slim refused to give me part of the money I made to support my addiction. Was he fucking nuts or what?
Back at the apartment I thought about how Denise had seen me at my worst point. I was relieved that she had not said anything to me, but the fact that she smiled at me spoke volumes.
While I lay there in my bed and replayed the whole scene in my mind, Stacy knocked on my slightly opened bedroom door and asked me if she could come in.
“Yeah, come on,” I replied. It total y shocked me that she wanted to come into my bedroom, so I was curious to know what she had on her mind.
Jennifer was in the shower at the time, and I heard Slim go outside right before Stacy knocked on my door, so she and I were alone.
“Can I sit down?” she asked.
I was lying on my side in the fetal position, so I slid backward so she could sit on the edge of my bed.
“Thank you,” she said, and then she sat down.
“What’s up?” I asked.
“I just came in here to see if you were al right,” she replied
“My knees are pretty scraped up, but I’m cool,” I assured her. “And thanks for asking.”
“Oh, you’re welcome.” She smiled and I smiled back.
“You know what?” she asked. “After I saw Slim hit you al those times, I got real y scared. I mean, I didn’t think that he was the type of guy who’d hit a woman.”
“What made you think that?”
“When I met him yesterday he was so nice.”
“Where did you meet him?”
“He was standing outside talking to two other guys and saw me walking by and stopped me.”
“You from Huntersvil e?”
“No, I’m from Portsmouth. But I got a friend who lives on Bower Street. I was staying there with her and her mama, but her mama got tired of me living there and told her to tel me I had to go. So I packed up my stuff and left.”
“Do you have any children?”
“Nope. I don’t want any rug rats.” She smiled. “Do you?”
“Yes, I have a daughter.”
“How old?”
“She just started grade school.”
“Oh, wow! That’s cool.”
Before I could throw another question at her, Jennifer walked into the room wrapped up in a bath towel. I could tel she was shocked to see me talking with Stacy.
“Excuse me,” she said, and then she slid by us and stepped into the closet.
“Oh, you’re fine,” Stacy assured her.
“Oh, yeah, we weren’t talking about much,” I added.
