"Goodmorning mommy," Denim smiles at her mother while sitting in front of her plate at the kitchen table.
"Morning baby"
"Where's daddy?"
"He had to go in early, you know how he is with work" she shakes her head.
"Yeah," She nods eating some of my eggs.
Ingran was a police officer for the Los Angeles police department & he took his job very serious.
"I have to go in early today Slim. You alright with being here by yourself for a while?"
Janette was a nurse.
"Yes ma'am. I'll be fine."
"Call India & see will she come sit with you baby,"
"Ok. Mama do you think I'll be able to get a car anytime soon?" She asks, while placing her used plate into the sink.
"You don't need to be driving right now Slim, you're too young baby"
"But mama I'm 18," she frowns. "I even graduated early mama, how much longer do I have to wait to be out on my own?!"
"Denim Marie don't you raise your damn voice at me girl! We're doing what's best for you as your parents, you will get a car when we feel like the time is right, you hear me?"
"Yes ma'am" she mumbles
"Gone head & call India" she demands, before walking upstairs.
Sighing, Denim picks the house phone up before quickly dialing India's number.
"What's wrong Slim?" She answers on the third ring.
"Hi,"
"Hey babe, you ok?"
"I'm fine. Are you busy today?"
"Nawl, I'll probably find something to do later on though. Why what's up?"
"Could you come over & sit with me? Mama working overnight tonight & daddy is too,"
"Yes, I'll be over there in probably a hour or so."
