Shondie Johnson : Beulah Simms , I heard you back in the DMV for your brother's home going. Thank the Lord ! I need your help. Can you still practice in Maryland? I know you in Chicago now. But anyway my damn daughter in trouble and that lawyer they gave her is just useless. My daughter is not pleading guilty to nothing because she didn't do nothing. That Duncan girl set her up.

Beulah Simms Wade : Yes , I am still legally entitled to practice in Maryland, DC and Virginia as well as Illinois. Send me your address. I'll come a little later and talk about what's going on.

" So ," Jimmy asked as he and Sol sat cross legged under a big old shady tree in the graveyard of the church," you still seeing Moore ? "

Sol looked at his older brother and replied," Her name is Luci. And, yeah. We're... We're dating. " He smiled widely. " I'm going away next term though. Eldermere. Studying environmental stuff. I kinda want to be a scientist. " He stopped looking at his brother and stared at the grass below, remembering how Jimmy had used to tease him whenever he had mentioned anything serious to him. Anything he cared about.

Jimmy smiled slightly and the look in his own eyes seemed envious. " Yeah ? That's good. I guess. You know they think you gay , right? "

Sol shook his head and rolled his eyes. " Well, they are idiots. I'm not gay. I like girls a lot. And , I like Luci because when I see her I see a girl. A beautiful smart exciting pain in the butt girl. I'm not gay. "

Jimmy nodded. " Ok. That's cool. You know I am , right? Gay ? I'm gay. And , I kinda like someone. Maybe a couple someones really. "

Sol looked back over at his brother's reddened face. " I didn't know but that's ok. " Then he laughed out loud.  " Maybe we can double date ! "

Jimmy laughed as well. " Yeah. Maybe we can. You know what, Solly ? When I was locked up I.... I kinda missed you, kid. "

Sol punched him in the shoulder lightly." I kinda missed you too, dickhead."
