“Morgan I would love it if you came with me. It would be so much fun. When the program is over, we can hang out with Gram or maybe we could take her out for a bite to eat.’
That was the best that I could come up with to stop her from going to the women’s meeting without me. Morgan looked at me and I could tell she was tempted. I was hoping she would come with me. Morgan took a few moments to think and then she said,
“Well Mama I want to go to the women’s meeting. I want to see what it is like. I already know what’s up with Nadia’s retarded point of view, you warned me in advance and I am ready for it. I am not going to respond to it. I just want to see how the women work.”
I knew that I had lost that battle before it got started. I tried to get her to do what I wanted, but she had the right to come and go as she pleases.
“Ok Morgan, check them out if you must. Where are they meeting at this time?”
She thought about it a second and then she said,
“I am not sure Mama. I will have to give Nadia a call and find out the time and the place.”
I could also see that Nadia had begun making contact with my daughter. She was really trying hard to incorporate our family into the Hebrew Israelite mix. I finally gave up my half hearted efforts to stop her from going.
“Ok baby girl that is cool. Have fun. I just wish you were going with me.”
Morgan laughed at me and said
“There will be another time when I can hear my aunts in concert and maybe I will have the chance to sing with them, but right now I want to see what the women’s group is talking about.”
I finally gave in and I accepted that she was not going to go with me.
“Ok baby. Paul will drop you off and pick you up of course?”
“Yes Ma’am, Morgan said. He is also goi...

...thing but pure jealousy. I knew those bitches had planned it that way!
I wanted them to know that I was not afraid to take a stand. I looked at Nadia and she looked the other way. She knew she was on my shit list. I gathered up my things and I said to my crew,
”Ya’ll get your stuff together. I am ready to go!”
Gabriel walked our family out to the car.
“Sis Trina, I am so sorry I had no idea that any of this even happened at all! I promise you that it will be taken care of.”
I stopped walking and I looked into Gabriel’s eyes.
“Gabriel I am not leaving the group, but if I am going to be a part of this group, them crazy ass bitches in there are going to have to be brought under control. I am not fucking around with them! They are not going to treat my daughter that way just because she is wearing jeans and she has a cute figure. I will not tolerate it!”
'I gave her a chance. Took her out with the rest of us, the whole
back and told her mother that is this wasn’t for her to be so controlling of her life.
“I am sure they’ll join us in common area at the halfway point, that is, if my sister is feeling up to it.”
“I know you di’nt, but we gotta get out of here or you're gonna get shot.”
“You know what we are going to do? We are going to play board games and it is going to be just as fun as if we were at the beach.”
...ire her to abandon all of her other lukewarm plans- a choice that she is unwilling to make at this point in her life.
"There is? " They all ask turning to look at her. "The girl's born bodyguard! They could find them and bring them back." She told them.
“Well I seem to be put in a predicament where I am not sure what to do” I said very poorly. She nodded as to continue. “My mother has died from a case of yellow fever just a couple of days ago” I said with a teer about to come out of my eye.
“I’m pretty sure she will. You should have had something a while ago. I guess they were hoping it would just clear up itself.” Her mom said softly. She ...
she always used to wish for a way to escape her life. She saw memories
The Creature That Opened My Eyes Sympathy, anger, hate, and empathy, these are just a few of the emotions that came over me while getting to know and trying to understand the creature created by victor frankenstein in Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. For the first time I became completely enthralled in a novel and learned to appreciate literature not only for the great stories they tell but also for the affect it could have on someones life as cliché as that might sound, if that weren’t enough it also gave me a greater appreciation and understanding of the idiom “never judge a book by its cover.” As a pimply faced, insecure, loner, and at most times self absorbed sophomore in high school I was never one to put anytime or focus when it came time
When Madonna first asked me to be her bridesmaid I felt delighted but as the big day approached I was informed that I would be doing a speech and a toast. Being the shy and retiring type I was trying to think of ways of getting out of it, but have any of you tried saying no to Madonna.
Aunt Leslie then snapped me out of my deep thought asking whether I was okay. I told her I was even if it was obviously a complete lie. "So shall we go back to Geraldine tomorrow morning? Or would you like to leave in the evening?"
She tried to take me away from that life. There wasn’t much sussues with that plan.
My mom told me she was moving out because of my dad’s addiction to alcohol. She told me she couldn’t take it anymore and that she was done with it. She gave me plenty of reasons and on the outside I tried to stay calm, I looked at her as if it were any other talk. I didn’t want my mom to feel as if I should be the reason for her not to leave state.
