Show Palace (An August Alsina Story)

Chapter 3.

// Month Later //

Of course August hit me up after all the talking we did that night and of course he kissed me so he stays in touch with me at times. But I don't fall, I don't mind being friends because there's no nigga who will love me so why not enjoy a nigga as a friend?

"Let me see your grades!!!" Neena takes Xavier's grades and view them.

"Wow let me find out you're smart like your mommy!!!!!!!!!!!!" Neena tickles Xavier causing him to laugh. "Here how bout I give you some money."

I continue fixing up a few things in my new apartment.

"Mommy?!!" Xavier calls me as I put up new curtains.

"Ms.Neena gave me 20 dollars." He shows me the money.

"That's good baby, did you say thank you?" I ask.

"Yes Ma'am."

"Good now go and your room and finish cleaning up." I say.

"Alright." He runs off.

"Girl I can't believe you moved into Buckhead, it's like yesterday you was living in that bummy ass apartment." Neena flops down on the couch and laughs.

"You feel me." I finish putting the curtains up and join her for some TV.

"I'm so happy for you." She smiles.

"Thank you, maybe one day I can get a big ass crib like you one day." I say.

"Maybe?" She looks at me. "Your guranteed to get one if you keep working hard like your doing!"

"Yess.."

"So now you can take your final exam when is it?" She ask.

"Oh, it's in 4 weeks." I roll my eyes in exhaust.

"Have you started studying?" She ask.

"Mmmm..No!" I be honest.

"Charity!!!!!!!!" She yells.

"I Know, I Know!!!!" I say.

"The earlier to study the more time you have to review everything you need to." She plays with her nails.

"I'm going to start I promise." I smile.

"Alright!!!" She looks at the Tv.

"This club is killing me, I swear it is I just wanna be somewhere on an island!!!!!!!" I lay back.

"I can't wait till you graduate so you can tell all of them to kiss your god damn ass!" She says with a serious face.

"I know." I look down, I think about how this stripper life is going to effect me. It hurts to but I'm just going to keep it to myself. I've been crying myself to sleep lately. Sometimes I'll just sit at my sons beside and watch him sleep and I just tell myself how bad of a mother I am.

Someone knocks on my door. I get up.

"Who that?" Neena ask.

"Ion know..."

I walk to the door and open it.

"Are You Ms.Charity?" A fat mexican guy ask.

"Yes, why?" I look at him with a clipboard.

"You have a delivery." He says.

"Alright, well where is it?" I ask .

"Alright boys bring em in!!"

"U..."

Men start walking in, each one of them have a flowers, there's like 10 of em.....

"Wait where are all these flowers coming from ?" I ask, I try to stop some of them from coming in, but it doesn't work.
