"Bring that boy in here john ." I yelled out to one of my boys

" Yes sir ." I watched as he left and entered back with a tall skinny boy besides him .

" I heard you got something for me ."

"Uhh yes mr. Lyon . Uh I found a girl that'll be willing to work for you ." I could tell how nervous he was .Rookie

"Lemme see her ."

On that note A girl with long brazilian weave down to her butt walked in she looked scared , like she didn't know what exactly she was getting into. She looked about Moesha's age. I must say she was a very gorgeous girl and she's just what I'm looking for .

" What's your name sweetheart?" I asked , she barely lifted her head to look at me

" It's destiny "

" Nice to meet you destiny , my Man Marco here says you interesting in working for me."

" Work for you ? Whatchu talking bout ? " She said while looking At Marco who was standing behind her . " what is he talking bout Marco?"

" Don't worry about it , you'll find out later.But for now .. get out ."

The girl was still carrying on asking the same question over and over while One of my boys ,King, carried her out.

"Boss !" John yelled as he entered the small office space .

"What is it ?"

" Laura just got caught " John replied

I smiled hearing the news . I'm interested in seeing how lil Moesha handles this situation .

" good . Now let's see how daddy's little girl handles this ."

Moesha

" Mookie what the hell am I gon do ?! This shit never happened ?!" I was panicking ,this never happened before and I sure as hell wasn't prepared .

"Relax all We gotta do is get her out . why are you tripping ?" Mookie said while grabbing his jean jacket off the coat rack . I knew why I was tripping ,cause the girls haven't been bringing in that much money lately I don't know why but it's been slow for a while and I know for a fact bail is gon be more than 1,000 dollars . Instead of telling him I decided to head up stairs.

" Where you going ?!"

"To get the money , I'll be back " I ran up to my room , I heard mookie yell ' hurry up !' So I slammed my door to indicate my response.

I got down on my knees and reached under my bed for the shoe box that our money is stored in . I opened it , And could already tell it wasn't enough .

" Shit." I mumbled to myself . I can't let her stay there , that's the whole of being a pimp , you gotta get them out of trouble and protect them. Cause if you don't bitches start to talk and when bitches start to talk , you lose your business.

I started thinking back to what my dad always used to tell , I tried thinking of something he would do. My eyes wandered the room for answers. then it hit me .

" The toy box ." I quickly got up and ran over to the Toy box my mother got me for my 5th birthday . Me and my dad put everything in there except for toys . Including the stash we've been hiding since Mom died. My dad used to call it "our way out " money , he never told me why we saving it but I'm guessing it's for times like these.

I opened the box and it was half way filled with 100 dollar bills . Jackpot ! "I'm coming laura. "

Laura

Who the hell this people think they are ?! Bringing me out for questioning , The fuck . I was real comfortable in the cool jail cell, met some nice people too.

" Laura kuoski .Long time no see" A tall dark haired woman walked in , if I remember correctly her name is

" Detective Garret, how have you been girl ?"

" Don't try and butter me up Laura . We need something you have ." she replied with a stern look on pale face.

"Damn detective , I didn't know you get down like that ! That'll cost extra tho babes ." I laughed at my own little joke , but she obviously didn't find it funny.

" It's been 6 years since Maurice died . So tell me whose pimping you now? " She was getting right down to business. this chick plays no games.

" No one . imma freelance hoe "

" Come on now you and me both know your not smart Or strong enough to survive on your own."

That hit hard." point ?"

"My POINT is , help me help you .Maurice was a very smart man so I know he just wasn't gonna let his girlss go just like that. So whose --"

"Listen I don't care what you say or do I'm not giving you what you want ."

" You think I don't remember how Maurice did you ? "

What is she talking bout ? Is she stupid

" You know what I'm talking about. He told you he loved you , you were his one and only .Then he takes you from your loving family only to have slave for him . He didn't love you Laura . It was all an Act . BUT even through all he put you through , you're still choosing him over your own good. He's dead ..

"Stop !" I couldn't take it anymore , everything she was saying was true . I could've been

"He's dead Laura !"

" I know I know ! Stop !"

"He's dead and you're still obeying his orders till this day ."

I put my head down . I was crying my eyes out , she was right . Maurice is dead . I should've been able to walk out , live another life after that .But no, instead now I have to take orders from a 18 year old girl .

"Laura." detective garret stood by me ,rubbing my back . " If you want to start a new life you have to tell me who Maurice has running you .We need to clean up these streets and you can help if you-"

" It's his daughter , Moesha L. Walker."
