Trust No Man ( Book 1)

Before Everything Started

Diamond POV

" 'I'm sick' my brother say.

'I'm needy' Qon says.

'I need help' Travis says.

And so far. Everyone got to say something about Diamond. Let Diamond be Diamond.

Its bad enough I have to walk around with all this guilt."

"What guilt is that Diamond?" My therapist asked.

"My father's death. I was only 5 and I've pushing myself so hard to not be like my mother was when she left. Shit my brother never stayed around to be a real brother. And now after being thrown from foster home to foster home I'm living with him. The same mother fucker who abandoned me. I mean isn't family supposed to be there for you no matter what?"

"Yes. Well he is trying to help now because he had you come to me."

"No Doc. He had me come here because he didn't know how handle the point that I was my own person I don't listen to what everyone say. And that in my eyes he is just another man with lies. I trust no man. And I stand by that."

"Well it seems to me that we are out of time. I got alot out of you this time. I hope we can do a lot more talking like this next week."

"Thanks Doc. See you next week."

I got my things and walked out my doctors office. I didn't even bother looking at my brother. On the drive to school was quite.

I really think these lessons are working on me. I'm becoming a better person in the world and I'm so happy I am.

When Brandon pulled up to my school I started to get out.

"Diamond we are going to have to talk about are problems together sooner or later."

"I think I prefer later. Or my personal favorite never." I got out and walked to meet up with JoJo.

"Wassup Girl."

"Life. I got my tea and I'm sipping on it how could life get any better."

"With me taking you on a date to the strip club."

"Haha. JoHo. No thank you I'm getting better in life. Not worse."

"I am not a hoe. I just like to get some and keep moving."

"And that's not a hoe."

"No. Its a player."

I laughed at JoJo and open my locker. "You need a girlfriend."

"And need a boyfriend. So let's hook up."

"Alright let's do it."

"Girl no I was joking. I'll beat boy ass before your huge Judy booty swallow me whole."

"Ahhh. Fuck you. Anyways look at Ice. She think she cute. We knew her before she was working here."

"Yea. When she working the pole. I swear she was into me."

"You think everyone is." I closed my locker and started to walk into class.

- After School -

JoJo walked me half way home and then left me walking alone when some girl was outside in shorts that was jammed in her ass.

So I was walking alone. As I was walking some car pulled up by me. I just kept walking.

"Hey ain't you Diamond?"

"Who wants to know?"

"Dawayne."

I stopped and leaned into the window. "And why would he want me?"
