~Tia's P.O.V~

Today is my 23rd birthday and my  brother, mother, and dad took me out earlier to a couple of places. Everything was nice, but now my friends and associates from school decided they wanted to take me out somewhere. There are eight of us including myself. There's Elijah (best friend), Courtney (Ari Lennox; friend), Woody (Woody McClain; CLOSE associate), Jacob (Jacob Latimore; school friend), Algee (Algee Smith; associate), Jane (Chika; associate), and Melissa (Lizzo; associate).

Yes, I now have a friend that's a woman. For so long I've let what happened to me as a child effect my relationship with women. I would look at all women like they'd betray me in some way because in many cases that was my experience. Courtney is very cool, and have like-minded humor. A woman having a female friend is needed because there are just some things you don't want to speak about with a male friend no matter their sexuality.

"All in all Y'ALL ALL was some horny ass people on Valentine's Day!" Algee yelled out to us laughing.

"You might as well been alone too, because yo ass was with the school hoe. Everyday of the week it's a different nigga!" Jacob said to Algee. Algee and Jacob are brothers, fraternal twins to be exact. Algee's two year's older than Jacob but acts like he's thirteen years younger than Jacob. They're both twenty-six.

"Right, I can't believe you fell for the trap." Woody pointed at Algee laughing.

"I can't stand that bitch." Elijah said to them.

"Who Lark?" Woody asked Elijah.

"Yes! She be on that slick shit." He rolled his eyes.

"I'm right with you bruhh." Woody agreed with him.

"She just all around a horrible person and got the nerve to be sleeping around." Jacob told us.

"But didn't you sleep with her too?" Woody raised his eyebrows at Jacob. That caused Algee and Jacob to eye each other.

"Hell yeah nigga! That shut was good too!" Jacob said loudly and dapped up his brother.

"Y'all nasty as fuck!" Chika said disgusted.

"I hate when a nigga call a woman a hoe when they hoes themselves." Courtney shook her head. "Don't get me wrong, she is one and I don't like her ass but y'all probably got more bodies than her." She said to Jacob and Algee. Woody nodded in agreement.

"Woody, you're the same way. You just a undercover hoe." Lizzo said to Woody.

"Look, a REAL man don't brag about who he has or hasn't slept with. I'm that real man, and that shit ain't in me to say something about. Second of all, I ain't no hoe." Woody explained with his hands.

"Woody just mad because he ain't have her." Algee said elbowing his brother while laughing.

"I don't want that shit. She tried me but I declined. I don't want no pussy if it's being offered to me. Then and there, you know what type of person that woman is." Woody explained. "Y'all like to out all y'all shit in the open like high schooler's."
