*2 years later*

"Miss Shauna me and Veronica restocked the shelves and your catalogs should be coming any minute now. Is there anything else you need us to do?" My assistant Chelsea asked.

"No Chelsea you've done a great job, you can kick back until it's time to open the store." I said giving her a smile, she always seemed afraid of me.

"Yes ma'am."

   I was so happy that my store was getting a lot of business, our products were leaving the shelves as soon as we got them, and we were making a lot of money to not have been in business for even a year yet. In Atlanta there are so many people competing trying to do the same thing, nobody has creativity. Everybody is selling weave, hair care products, and opening boutiques. I went another route and opened up a sex shop, I call it "Goodies". I've done well for myself too, so far I've made 500 hundred thousand in only six months and I plan on opening another store next year.
    I moved out of Meeka's house a year after living with her. I found a condo in the middle of the city and decided it was time to make my move. The last time I heard from Ray he was cursing me out about taking over a million dollars of his money, he knew I rightfully deserved it though so after we argued he apologized and wished me the best in life. My life has been stress free and drama free since I left him alone and I've been loving it.
   I still haven't completely gotten over Ray so I haven't got back on the dating scene yet but I do have a couple fuck buddies that I hit up when I'm lonely. I feel like right now the only thing I need to focus on is my business and how I can expand it. I was once a woman that needed a man, and now I'm the woman that a man needs and that's a big change. I used to wait on Ray to tell me what to do and how to do it, whenever he told me to jump I would say how high because that's the only thing I knew. Before him the only way I knew how to make money was to sell my pussy, ass, and mouth, Ray showed me the finer things in life and after years of that I refused to go back to the streets.
    Lee was my current man, well he was a fuck buddy but I kind of put him on a pedestal because I like the way he treats me and I like how he supports me and motivates me in all my business ventures. He's the man I called when I was up at 2 a.m and wanted to cuddle. Thinking on it, life is good in every aspect for me right now.

   The water was so hot you could see the steam fill the bathroom. Lee had me bent over in the shower while he stroked me from behind, he gripped my waist and smacked my ass while going deeper and deeper until I felt him in my stomach. He stopped, turned me around, picked me up, and started stroking while making me go up and down. He started to suck my breasts while still gripping my waist. I scratched his back and started to suck on his neck, he started to squeeze me tighter and tighter until he climaxed.

"You can shower for real now." Lee said laughing.

"Get out Lee!" I said laughing because he can make a joke out of anything.

  When I got out of the shower Lee was laying in my bed on his lap top with his reading glasses on.

"We agreed no work tonight Lenard." I said putting my robe on.

"Had to check my email baby, business don't sleep just because I do." He said looking over at me like I was crazy.

"Well it could always wait until the morning, speaking of the morning I have to get up at six so I don't think you're going to want to spend the night tonight."

"Oh no ma'am, my alarm don't go off until 8 a.m."

  Lee put his laptop in its bag, put his shoes on, grabbed his car keys and headed towards the door.

"Will you grab my mail off the kitchen table? I haven't got a chance to look at it yet." I asked giving him a big smile.

"You're so lazy."

   He came back in my room with my mail and gave me a kiss.

"Goodnight baby, I'll see you tomorrow for lunch." He said walking out of the house and closing the door.

   I got home late that evening so I forgot all about my mail. It usually wasn't nothing but my monthly bills and sales ads but they were my favorite things to look through. Since Lee was gone I decided to check my email and make sure all of my products were going to make it to my store on time this month, I hated when I had to explain to my customers that they had to wait another week or two before they could get their goodies. When I checked on everything it seemed that my customers would be very pleased this month. I put my laptop on my night stand and started to go through my mail. The first two were bills but the last one was a letter. It was from jail but I didn't know anybody that was locked up right now and I didn't recognize the name. I opened it anyway and began to read:

  "Shauna it's Ray, I'm locked up! I used my cell mate name because I knew you probably wouldn't read it if you knew it was from me. I fucked up, I fucked up real bad Shauna and I don't know what to do now. Shan lied to me that baby wasn't even mines, I found that out before I got locked up. The whole time I was taking care of that baby, her and her other son! It gets worse the bitch was a informant too! I guess they found out she was my baby mama and paid her to snitch on me. Before I found out about the baby I moved them in my new house, had her working for me and she crossed me! I don't know what to do now, I'm not begging for sympathy I just need somebody to talk to. I know we haven't spoke in a long time and if you don't respond I understand why. I'm just really going through it right now and if anybody understands this it's you. Hopefully I talk to you soon.
                                  -Ray"

  I put the letter down and layed back in my bed, I couldn't believe what I had just read. I couldn't speak or even think straight it had my mind so confused. The only way I would get a clear understanding is if I get some sleep.
