A Detroit Love Thang 3

Alicia sat at the kitchen table thinking about Niles and their daughter. "You alright baby girl?" Margrete asked. Yeah I'm alright. "You thinking about Niles?" She say. Yeah I miss him momma! I know you do. She still had conflicted feelings on everything she found out verses the him she knew before she found everything out. She hadn't heard from him yet, it had been a week and a couple days. That's the longest they went without speaking. Her thoughts were interupted by a cell phone ringing. She looked down at the caller I.d she didn't recognize the number. Hello! Yes Hi, you don't know me but I saw a flyer outside a few days back and I was calling becuase I knew Alyssa and wanted to know if we could meet up somewere? Alicia eye's went wide and hope reserfaced again. Yeah we can meet up just let me know were and I'll be there. Okay 20 minutes by the coney Island on 7 mile and John R. Okay. Alicia hung up her phone, getting her jacket and after kissing Ariana and Margrete good bye, headed out the door. She did a rush job right over to The location the lady asked to meet at. Alicia got out her car, going inside the coney island calling the number back. Yes, I'm here. The lady looked up waving her hand for Alicia to notice her. Alicia walked over to the red head dark skinned women who looked like she needed to retire from the streets. She had on a short pink skirt and a black tube top. Salulite was hanging from her legs and she had a slight gut wearing on her stomach. "Hi" Alicia say walking up to the girl shaking her hand. You know something about my sister? She got strait to the point. Yes me and Alyssa use to trick togather. For a long time we wore these streets out. I met her about 24 years ago, back when she was still working for Pyscho. Yeah she wanted to recruit me to be on his team, but I worked for myself I did'nt have time for that shit. Did My da- Pyscho, did Pyscho ever hurt her? Nah For some reason he took it easy on her. He supplied her with the drugs she needed so as long as she was out here on the streets doing what he wanted her to do. If he ever did hit her he did'nt do it around me. "that son of a bitch" Alicia say shaking her head. "What happened to her?" Alicia question the lady. About two years ago she got caught up by a cop, she was sent to jail and when she got out she decided to get her shit togather and get off the crack. I always tried to tell her that shit was'nt good for her but she was long gone in it. I mean going in and out of jail for this tricking shit was a regular for us. So she was'nt phased. But she ended up back on that crack again and back in jail. They sent her to a half way house Thinking that maybe that will help her a little better. "Yeah I went by that halfway house," Alicia say. But they said she checked herself out and hav'nt heard from her since. They said she was doing so good. Do you know where she is? Yeah I do, She at the thirteenth pricent. Locked up again. Why this time? The usual, I told you, She got caught tricking again. That was about 3 days ago. I don't know maybe some people are a lost cause. The lady shook her head. Thank you, for the information. I really Appreciate it. No problem. Please help her, she's my friend and I care for her. I will. Alicia got up from her seat leaving the coney Island.

Alicia made her way to the pricent parking and going inside. She knew Alyssa would be there she could feel her emotions rising inside. She was just happy to know that she was'nt dead some were. That she was still alive. Alicia let the officer know who she was there for, after showing much paperwork, the officer guided her to a holding cell she was in. Alyssa you got a visitor, the officer say bringing Alicia in after checking her. Alyssa stood up looking a mess, her clothes was dengy and her hair was dry and split. She still had long pretty hair just heavily damanged.
