Imani POV
It was about 9:00 pm when my flight landed and it was about 9:30 when I left out the airport after getting me some snacks I had 65$ in my purse and I had to find somewhere to stay , because I knew in a hotel I could only afford one night. Tomorrow I was going to look for a job. So then I could afford to stay at the hotel until school started then I could stay in the dorms. Whoa this was alot figure out plus I still have to find a way to pay for my books and stuff I swear this was so stressful. I hated my parents how could you just do something like this to your own child. I just don't understand. When I have children I'm never doing them how my mom and dad did me. I promise you that. As I walked the streets of Atlanta people were bumping into me like they was crazy , boys tried to talk to me. I was cold as I don't know what. I kept trying to ask people where the closest hotels were but they acted like they couldn't hear me.

I rode past all the blocks my niggas was on just to make sure they was there , then turned on Crenshaw ave and seen the finest girl ever. She was bad as fuck but why the fuck she was walking.
"Aye ma" I said
She just kept walking , so of course if que want something he gone get it and I had to get her. It was dark outside but she looked like she was lightskin with long black hair and she was skinny but she had a lil some on her.
"Its 10:24 ma , why you walking out here" I asked
"Look , can you just tell me where the nearest hotel is" she said
"Its about 20 minutes from here" I said
"Okay , thank you" she said
"I can give you ride" I said

"Look. I dont bite ma and it's a lil to late for you to be walking like this , you must don't know where you at"
" Look I'm fine okay , I can walk" she said with an attitude
So I got out and stopped her right in beside my car.
"Look , my name que , and yours
She took in a deep breath and then said
"Imani"
"Well hey imani , just let me give you a ride. I'm not gone hurt you. I said as I had her leaning against the passenger side of the door.
She took another deep breath and then said
"Fine"
I opened the door for her and we drove in silence at first
"So what you doing , walking out here at 10 some at night" I asked
"Trying to find a hotel" she said
"Oh , where you from" I asked
"Here" she said
"Nah for real , where you from I chuckled"
"Beverly" she said
"Hills I replied
"No , duh she said with an attitude
"What you doing all the way out here" I said
"Why you ask so many questions , you so nosey she said
"I'm just a concerned person plus , you don't look like a person to just be walking around the south of atlanta , so I know you got a story to tell" I said
"Yeah , I do but I ain't telling it to you" she said
"Thats fine , but listen before I take you to yo hotel I need to do something real quick.
"Um nooo nooo , take me to my hotel first then do whatever it is you have to do" she said
"Just sit back relax , I said while driving to pedro's
Imani POV
"Wow , I said as I inhaled , what did I get myself into. I got a ride with this nosey boy. I can't lie he was cute. He was light skin with a low haircut and he had on a brand of clothing I never really seen before only on like tv. I didn't know where we were going but he better make this quick because one I don't really trust him and two , I'm just ready to go to sleep. He turned up his radio and I instantly asked
"What is this" I said
"What" he said
"This music".I said
"You ain't never heard this" he asked
"No , I said
"Well just listen he said as he turned it up a little louder.
I'm gone beat that pussy up just like a champion.
I'm a beast up in these streets like a barbarian.
Told my baby it's February we married.
"Okay , I said
We pulled up to a house that was beautiful , it was huge. He got out and he was tall , he was at least about 6,0. He went inside the trunk and grabbed a big duffle bag , I wondered what was in it. He knocked on the door and then walked in and came right back out
"That was quick" I said
"I know" he replied
"You hungry" he asked
"Um , no I'm okay" I said
"Alright" he said
We drove in silence the rest of the way
We were finally at the hamptons hotel , and I hoped I had enough to get a room.
He walked me in.
"Hey. Can I get a room please I said to the lady
"Yes , it's going to be 75.00
"Um , okay" I said
"Here , I heard him say as he slid his black card to the lady.
"Thank you , I said
"No problem , but what you doing tomorrow night. He said
"Nothing , why I said
"I wanna take you some where" he said
"I don't know" I said
"Ima be here at about 8:00 , and wear something , casual he said
"Oh and one more thing he said
"What I said
He grabbed my phone and put his number in my phone
He then walked off.
