The Prostitute

Chapter Fifty-Four

China

I'm sitting in the living room with Ava the wedding planner.

She's an older white lady who happens to be one of the best wedding planners in California.

"Since you're only planning for about fifty guest, I'm thinking small but extravagant" Ava speaks, showing me some wedding examples.

"I love this one" I tell her while pointing at an all white wedding picture.

"Excellent choice" Ava says nodding with a smile.

I smile and the doorbell rings.

"That must be Lola" I speak excitedly as I stand up to open the door.

I had to let my best friend help me with the wedding.

"The Maid of honor has arrived" Lola speaks dramatically as I open the door.

I giggle, letting her into the house.

"Mrs. Ava this is my best friend Lola, Lola this is the wedding planner Mrs.Ava.."

"Hi" They both speak in unison.

"Which one of these would you pick?" I ask Lola as we sit, showing her the wedding examples.

"This one" Lola says, instantly pointing at the same one I had picked.

I smile "I said the same thing"

Red comes down the stairs with Dj..

"Look who finally woke up" I giggle while looking at them both.

"Me and my son be sleepy" Red speaks making me giggle again.

"Red, which one of these do you like best?" I ask him while holding up the wedding examples.

"Whichever one you like best" Red reply's

"He's going to make a good husband with that answer" Mrs.Ava says with a chuckle.

"Red seriously, come look and pick one!" I kind of demand.

He sits Dj into his rocker and walks over to the table.

Wow...

I watch as his eyes scan the photos.

"This one" Red answers, pointing at the all white theme.

I smile "Third times the charm, this is definitely the one"

Brent

"Where Red?" Tas asks me as soon as I walk into the trap house.

"Do I look like Red's handler?" I ask confused.

"Now is not the time to be getting slick my nigga, I'm liable to snap" Tas tells me.

"Lil nigga I ain't scared of you but what's going on, is it something I can help with ?" I ask him

"I need to find out which one of these niggas served my mama. My grandma died a few days ago and my mom took it hard so she relapsed.. I need to know who the fuck served her!" Tas says angrily with tears forming in his eyes.

"Alright Alright, I don't know how Red could find that out when these niggas serve hundreds of people a day but just calm down. Where's your mom now?" I ask him.

"In the closet at our house" He answers confusing me.

"In the closet?" I ask raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, I locked her in the closet, I use to do it all the time as a kid to stop her from doing drugs. I'm putting her back into Rehab Monday" Tas tells me.

I nod

"Bring in a picture of your mom and we gone put in on the wall to remind niggas, Do not serve her and hopefully that'll stop this from happening in the future" I tell Tas, putting emphasis on do not serve her.

He nods "Thanks Brent"

"No problem" I reply.

Red

The wedding planner finally left to turn our plans into reality..

"I'm so excited for your wedding" Lola tells China.

"Me too" China squeals.

I chuckle.

"So let me tell you about this fine, chocolate thing I met at the grocery store yesterday" Lola tells China.

"Hold on" China speaks, sparking a backwood.

"Okay tell me" China says giving Lola her full attention.

"Girl his name is Poncho. He so sexy and he got gold teeth"

"Okay then bitch" China speaks with a smirk.

The fuck she smirking for ?

"Yes ma'am, I got his number and he taking me out to eat tonight. He don't give a fuck about me being pregnant. I told him my child's father is still in my life but I'm single" Lola tells China, shrugging her shoulders.

"What about your sugar daddy?" China asks curiously.

"I care for him but you know he's not going to be around much longer.. I'll make the last few years of his life the best and raise his child to remember him. As far as Poncho, him and Bruce aren't going to cross paths, plus I'm not sure how far this thing with me and poncho will even go. He fine as fuck though" Lola tells China.

China giggles "Okay then"

The fuck she mean okay then ?

I tune their conversation out, checking my work phone.

I see fifteen missed calls from Tas and I instantly call back to make sure he's okay.

"Red" Tas speaks, answering on the second ring.

"What's up, you good?" I ask concerned.

"One of these dumb ass niggas served my mama and she relapsed but Brent figured out a way to make sure nobody serves her again" Tas tells me.

"Damn I'm sorry to hear that Tas and what did Brent decided?"

"To put a big picture of my mama up in the trap house under the words do not serve" Tas says making me chuckle.

That nigga Brent a fool but that's a good idea, I guess..

"Okay that's what's up, call me if you need anything else" I tell Tas

"Answer the phone then nigga" Tas tells me.

I chuckle

"I got three or four phones but I got you" I tell him.

"Alright" Tas replies with a chuckle before ending the call.

I hate to hear that somebody served his mom. She was doing so good..

"Let me go get ready for my date with Poncho" Lola tells China, stretching the O in poncho.

"FaceTime me right after" China tells her.

"Duh" Lola reply's with a giggle as they hug.

"Bye Red" Lola speaks to me.

"Alright, be safe" I tell her as she walks towards the front door, leaving the house.

"Here" China speaks, passing me the blunt.

I take it, taking a puff.

"I love you" China tells me.

"I love you too baby" I reply, kissing her.

"Did you decide who's going to be your best man?" China asks me.

"Hmm, Brent is the only person that comes to mind" I tell her.

But we'll see how that goes..

She nods
