My flight landed. I was all the way in California. I was drained and just wanted to sleep.
I was riding in my Uber to the women's treaty.
We pulled up after a while.
"Good luck." My Uber said. I smiled. "Thanks." I grabbed my bags and walked to the door. I stared at the facility. "For The Beckhams." I said.
I walked in and went to check in.
"Hey." I said. "Hey. How are you?" "I'm good how about you?" "I'm great honey.
How can I assist you today?"
"My name is Raquel Fenty I'm checking in."
"Ohhhh we was waiting on you." She said laughing. "Yeah my Uber was kind of late getting me from the airport." She laughed.
"That's fine love. You have a mentor he's with some of your other group members.
I'll just buzz him." I smiled.
"Okay." I looked around and this place was actually nice. I'm here till Christmas so I have to make the best of it all.
"Rakim your last member has arrived." She called.
"I'll be right there." "Okay."
I just stood there waiting when 3 women hit the corner along with a man.
"This her?" He asked.
"Yeah."
He nodded. "Raquel?" "Yeap." "Okay I was showing them the facility but we behind schedule so after the meeting I'll show you around if that's coo."
"Okay." I said.
We all walked to a room where it's was many other women. "Rakim." This lady said.
She stood up and hugged him.
"These my mentees." He said.
"Ladies join the circle please." We all sat down. "So for the ladies that don't know Rakim is my son. He comes and help out.
I'm the one that's actually going to be here to help you ladies.
It's just easier for us to break you all into smaller groups to get to know each other and to be able to form mother bonds so you guys know you aren't alone.
The first exercise is to get the group you came in with and I want y'all to talk and get to know each other." She said.
I sighed.
This some middle school ass shit.
"She must think we kids." One of the girls in my group said. "I was just thinking that." Another said.
We all laughed.
"Cardi." One said.
