If I'm Down with You

• 1 •

  Born and raised in the heart of South Central by my four older brothers, you can guarantee I've always been equipped to the game. See when you grew up like I did, you see and hear a lot of shit. It was always some shit popping off. And my oldest brother, Brian, was and still is always in the center of it. Him, my other brothers, Rashad, Cobi, and Jamal basically ran the streets. They say jump, niggas say how high. But I guess I should describe them to you. Brian is 28 and has been taking care of all of us since he was 15. Our parents were killed in a car accident. A drunk driver ran into them, killing them instantly. Ever since that day B has been the sole bread winner. He's very humble but never cross him. He'll end your entire existence without even thinking about it twice. Rashad is 26 and the hot head of the family. He doesn't give a fuck about anything or anyone. Hell, the nigga don't even give a damn about his own life. Shit is sad right? I know, anywho, Cobi is 24 a mix of B and Shad. Nigga hella bipolar so it all just depends on what mood he's in on that day. And then there's Jamal, 22 and not really about that life. He's only involved because of the pressure our brothers put on him to be down. Mally is very passive aggressive and has such a gentle soul. He wouldn't even burst a grape. But enough about them. I'm sure you're wondering about me. Well let's just say I'm 20 years old, I attend the University of Southern California majoring in entrepreneurship. I've always been the vibrant, outspoken female that everyone loves. I have the most beautiful eyes and a smile that can light up the whole world. With these full lips, wide hips, voluptuous ass, and huge breast, I have these niggas and even bitches drooling over me. I'm the shit and I mean that in the most humble way possible. But even with all that being said, no one can say they have been with me. I'm far from easy. I believe my body is sacred and whoever I give it to has to be worthy of it. And living in today's generation, it's hard to find someone who wants you for more than just your looks. I'm such a hopeless romantic and because of who my brothers are, that doesn't make dating any easier. Most guys are either scared of them or are their enemies. Shit I've even made a few enemies myself because of my brothers. I have a huge target on my back and most niggas look at me as collateral damage. Personally, I think all this drama is unnecessary and stupid as hell. Life is too damn short to be beefing with people. Especially when there's no real reason behind it. Because it's always innocent ass people like me who gets stuck in the middle of other's bullshit and shenanigans. If only my brothers knew who I'm currently talking to and if only he knew who my brothers are. It's going to be a long road, I can tell you that. And oh by the way, the names Monifah but you can call me Mookie.
