It's exactly 05:30 am and you can already hear mom arguing with one of her clients. I've only seen met one of her clients, his name was Dani, he gave me a dollar to go buy myself something nice. Momma never wants me around her clients, she says they're hungry useless wolves that need to be fed. I've never really seen what happens between momma and her clients, but all I know is it keeps us alive for a few more days. Momma says that no matter how bad it gets I should never let my happiness depend on a man."It shows how weak you are and how desperate you are."I walk out my room and prepare to face world. Of course I can't take a hot long bath nor can I get an English breakfast, but I assure you one day; I'll be able to do so. Just not today. As I walk out I see uncle Ben working on his newest invention. And I see Aunty Maurice having an early smoke. And how could I forget Mandy, an old childhood friend. This is life in East Gardens. Nothing far from the usual
