Chapter 3 .

I caught a ride home with Mesha , it was 4:30 in the morning and she was probably spending the night at my house anyway .

"Ive been meaning to tell you something." she said taking her eyes off the road .

"What?" I asked confused .

"I'm , pregnant." her voice was shaky.

"WHAT MESHA , ARE YOU SERIOUS !?"

"As a heart attack" she stopped at a red light and reached over to the glove compartment , she handed me an ultrasound . I looked at it in amazement .

"How , far along are you?" I asked breaking the silence .

"Two months."

"What you gone do?"

"Keep it , I have enough money right now to buy my own place.. But I don't know what to do when , I run out . My baby daddy happy about it though and wants me to move in with him".

"Girl , you know DayK is in these streets."

"Girl , I know ... But once my mama find out I'm gone have to leave anyway , She already hate the fact that I work at the club." tears started to form in her eyes. I didn't know what to say , so we rode in silence the whole way home .

When we got there my Moms car was in the drive way & the living room light was on which was wired because she worked overnight . I was scared and I didn't know what to except when I walked in .

I unlocked the door , and my Mama was standing right in the door way.

"Monaee Jonique Harris , where have you been and do not lie."

"Hey , Ms.Harris." Mesha said speaking to my Mama.

"Hey , baby you look tired and worn out go up stairs and take a shower and get ready , for bed." My Mama said kissing Mesha on the forehead .

I still had on my stripping outfit , with my Adidas sweat pants on .

"I'm , waiting." she said folding her arms on her chest and tapping her foot. I know I couldn't lie to my Mama . I started crying .

"I've been at the club!"

"What club , you not dress like you just was partying or something."

"Noo , mama let's go in the living room so we can talk."

We walked inside the living room and sat down on the couch.

"Well.....?" she said looking me in my eyes .

"Mama." I let out a deep breath.

"I'm dressed like this , because .."

"Because what , Moe do not play with me."

"Mama , I've been working at the strip club for six months."

She dropped her head down .

"You , What?"

"Been , working at the strip club."

"MOENAEE!?" she slapped me .

She didn't say nothing for awhile . My face was stinging from her open hand . I rubbed my hand against my face . She rolled her eyes and finally broke the silence.

"Your 17 Moenaee."

"Yeah , Mama but I need the money I've already finished school."

"I don't care , you have to two choice . You find you another job , or you move out."

"I'm keeping my job Mama."

"Then , you have four days to get out my house." she stood up and walked out the living room . I went after her .

"Four , days mama."

"You right , that is plenty of time .. You have two days now." I didn't say nothing else , because I didn't want her to say get out tonight. I walked up stairs crying.

"You okay ?" Mesha asked.

"How , am I going to find some where to go in two days then on top of that I don't even have a car to get anywhere . I was stressing , I needed to find some place to go .
