Making my own $$$$

Kacsy had her own apartment in the Calliope Projects where it all started. Sitting on the porch waiting for the day care transportation van to pick up the kids so she can get to school. Wondering where they were because her bus would be coming soon and she couldn't missed this bus or she will be late. Things was hard since lucky went to jail two months ago so she was basically doing every thing on her on there is her bus a block a way and the van just pulled up and the bus stop was two blocks the opposite way she load her kids on the van a ran she meant she wasn't going to miss that bus making it just in time Kacsy worked hard at school because Job Corp stop accepting people at the age twenty two and she was twenty two with a birthday coming soon but she knew she had to change for her kids within six months Kacsy got her GED, Driving License, and two trade Hospitality Tavel and Tourism as well as Medical Office Support she left with a job at a five star Hotel in the French Quarters as a Night Auditor making ten dollars an hour as well as enrolled in Community College she was making her own money taking care of her kids with the help of her father who would watch them while she worked over night things was finally looking up for Kacsy lucky was even home and stopping by checking on his kids but since Kacsy was on that money train and a relationship was the farthest thing on her mind from time to lucky had now problem giving in to Kacsy. With everything going good something bad was bound to happen Kacsy noticed that her son Kamar being three was not saying words like Kash and Kashmir did at that age and he was still wearing diapers concern she informed his doctor and after several test Kacsy was informed that Kamar had autism and he would need a little more care and more time than the normal child his age that didn't change anything with Kacsy she didn't treat him any different than his brother and sister they were all equal and she love them the same grinding making her money and taking care of her kids Kacsy said she didn't want to raise her kids in the projects she felt like the project was a stepping stone for you to make your way out of there and she was able to make it out of the projects it was time for her to allow someone who really need it to get it so Kacsy found a three bedroom apartment in the New Orleans East area and things was good Kacsy started dating again something about trapping guys Kacsy could not shake but he sold pills and there was something Kacsy always said in her life she would never drink because her step father was a drunk and she saw how he was and she would never use drugs because her brother Kevin was strung out on herion at one time and Kacsy and Kevin was really close and that hurted her and her mother in law used cracked but she was still the sweetest person so I guess it was a shock to every one when Kacsy started popping pills and she had a never ending supply since she was with scooter Kacsy was on the other side of town so her family was not seeing her on a regular basics but things was really bad for her she was popping pills all day every day she had no idea where her kids was neighbors would feed them and send them inside it was so bad one day Kacsy was passed out in the bed and Kashmir saw her mom went in the kitchen and fixed her momma a sandwich and chips with a juice bring it to her wake her up and said mommie wake up you have to eat a drugged Kacsy raised her head and see her seven year old daughter holding a plate she ate the food and her daughter helped her to the tub to bath Kacsy cried while in the tub how did her life come like this she lost her Good job dropped out of college and neglecting her kids this was not the life she dreamed of for her self and kids she had to find a way to shake this shit she alienated her self from her family and her kids father he didn't even know where they lived at still trying to shake the pills slowly but surely Kacsy got a job at shoney's to pay bills she met a new guy who came in to eat at her job name lil nine he left his number on a hundred dollar bill she wrote his number on a piece of paper and went scored her two fifty packs of pills after getting super high she was yearning for more pills but didn't have any money so she called lil nine he came over and she didn't want small talk she just wanted him to buy her some pills but lil nine was selling weight out there in the east and he liked what he saw in Kacsy he didn't know she was a junky though but damn he liked her he got her a fifty pack but he told he that he won't do that anymore and if she wanted to fuck with him she had to leave that shit along and he could help her if she really wanted to leave it alone getting high that night Kacsy had to work the next morning she was walking to work and she was walking for thirty minutes but any other day it took her ten minutes to get to work when she looked to the left she noticed she was not moving at all once she did make it to work they fired her because they could tell she was high Kacsy went home she still had a few pills left and said her life is gone if she don't give the drugs up so she flushed the pills down the toilet she looked at her house and noticed this was not how her mother raised her cleaned her house and even had food ready for her kids when they came home Kashmir thought she was in a different house or she had a new mom her mom wasn't passed out and she looked liked the mom she was used of they sat and ate like a family and she told her kids how sorry she was and she was going to try and get better for them Kashmir was so happy her mom was back because it was hard on the seven year old feeding her brothers and getting them ready for bed and school everyday no child should have to do that but she never gave up hope that her mom would get better Kacsy stuck to her promise and left the drugs alone and lil nine helped as well because he put the word out if anyone gave her any or sold her any they would have to deal with him by Kacsy losing her job lil nine took up the slack and made sure Kacsy and the kids were straight and everything was looking good as thanksgiving of 2004 approached Kacsy could not wait to cook her forts dinner for her family but a week before lil nine was in a car accident with three of his boys and one of them died the police found drugs in the car so everyone in the car was charged but lil nine was hurt bad so he was in the hospital but once he heard he was going to be arrested he called for Kacsy to come pick him up and he walked out three days later the police came to Kacsy house and got injured lil nine and booked him into Orleans parish prison for the drugs and on top of that he had a parole hold damn Kacsy was going crazy what was she going to do her man was gone she didn't know if he was going to be gone for years or what but she was a true to him and she wasn't going to turn her back on him because he was there and helped her leave the drugs alone so once a week Kacsy and her kids were visiting him and he got a letter every week and he even had her getting his money that was owe to him on the street so Kacsy bills was good for a little while but as Christmas came things wasn't looking good Lucky was in jail as well and Kacsy had an eviction notice her only means of income was six thirty five that she got from the government for her son Kamar

Kacsy got up and put her kids on the air mattress on the floor and just glaze out of the living room window remembering when things was good.Money Cars shopping sprees but now all she have is he three babies Kashmir her nine year old daughter Kash her six year old son and Kamar her five year old son. Kacsy sons was young and didn't really understand what was going on but Kashmir was older and very smart and knew something just wasn't right. Things just have to get better lil nine has been sitting his sixty day so the drug charges was dismissed now we are waiting on his parole officer to lift the hold. Two weeks after the new year lil nine was open the door to our new house shaking his head asking Kacsy why didn't she tell him she was living like this with the kids she was embarrass to tell anyone how she was living he looked at her and said give me two days bae days and I will have you out of here he left out of the door and for the next forty eight hour Kacsy did not see lil nine but when he returned he told her get the kids clothes and you clothes leave everything else they all were riding back to New Orleans east to a beautiful two bed room two bath town house fully furnished he told the kids go check out y'all room the boys were excited because there was two TV's in there on in front of Kashmir bed with a VCR and one in front of Kash and Kamar bunk bed with a game system Kacsy had a king size bed in the master bedroom and there was even a computer in the living room Kacsy asked him what he had did he told her if you would have told me you was living like dat you could have did this your self I had a stash out here never be embarrass to tell me anything love while the kids was in they room Kacsy and lil nine went made use of there king size bed life was really good for Kacsy and lil nine he was making his money but what Kacsy found out was that lil nine didn't know how to read or count large amount of money but with his girl on his side he was good cause she made sure all his money was right and on Valentin day Kacsy gave him the best news every that he was going to be a father he accepted Kacsy kids but it was nothing like his own and because he did five years in the Feds and two for the state he was ready to give the world his jr.
