I'm gonna fix this and get my girl away from the bitches.
Satin: Wow he knows more about my dad's life and death than I've ever known. I have to right my mom. "Hey, you never told me where we were going." As soon as the word we're out of my mouth We pulled up to a gated community where there was a security guard outside in a booth and the area was completely hidden behind 10 foot hedges. "This is just beautiful wow who lives here?" The guard aroache the car handing Lettie a package and saying good evening Mr Alexander hope you had a wonderful day sir.
Lettie: "Wassup Steve, Lettie says as he spoke to the security guard at the booth." Grabbing a large package that had been left for him today. " So Sexy Satin I wanna show you your new spot.

As he pulled up to a beautiful home the biggest home Satin had ever seen her smile was so bright she just looked at me and said I can get used to this.
