ENEMY LINES

SUPERWOMAN

I wonder what my brother was thinking when he left everything to me. I'm certain he wasn't in his right mind when he changed his will. I can't do this I can't raise a child,be a pharmacist and run his restaurant,strip clubs and his drug businesses. I mean I love food but I know nothing about the business of food,when it comes to stripping I know zilch,I might know what drugs to use to treat illnesses but that's legal,when it comes to the illegal use of drugs I'm clueless. The hardest part though is raising a 5 year old.

"Hurry up beautiful if we don't leave now we're going to be late and everyone is already there."

Lorenzo calls me from my kitchen where he's having my breakfast. You'd swear he didn't have food or money to get breakfast at one of the fast food joints,cause everytime we have a meeting he eats at my place. He's been a great help though with all the business trouble we've been having lately. The guys on the ground have been complaining that some boys from the east have been trying to sell on our territory to our customers,apparently some guy or kingpin named Ghost is trying to run us out of business in our own 'neighbourhood'.

To be honest with you I wouldn't care less if he took over cause I really don't want to involve myself with this life.
The problem is who'll take over my brothers business. I don't understand why he didn't leave it for Lorenzo but I know he had his reasons and with that I can't give it all to Lorenzo even though he'd do a much better job than I currently am.

"Wait till I get to heaven Shane ,you're dead!" I mumble to myself.

"Did you say something?"

".......Enzo was there no other name besides Boobs ,Booty and Beyond that you and my brother could have called the club"

"It's a long story but basically we wanted a name that we could abbreviate to B3.... it just seemed cool at the time"

"So what exactly are we to do there today?"

"Check if management is doing well. The girls are doing well and clients are coming in. Need to check the books too,you know check loss and profits and where we can improve"

"This is all too much for me,to be honest. I feel like I'm way in over my head"

"Don't worry soon,you'll be a pro at this"

"I doubt"

Running my brother's businesses is a headache. I've been solving problems,well trying to the whole day and I can't take anymore of it. Today was a real eye opener to me to what people are going through out here. I always thought strippers and prostitutes were just lazy,trust me today I learnt different. I'm way in over my head though here,so I've decided to put someone else in charge of my brothers businesses. I'm not cut out for this.
