I start walking home bumping to my music my apartment not far from school when I walk into our building complex. it is hot in Boston around this time. I walk in front of the apartment door and unlock it with my keys when I see my mom crying "manman poukisa ap kriye"(mom why are you crying) I ask her she looks at me and I see a note in her hands I grab it and look at it and start reading it 

"dear madam manushka (if your Haitian you will get it)

 flash back over 

I was thinking of last time I saw my mom five years ago now I'm in Miami and the thought of being a nurse is over. I'm a stripper living comfortably in my apartment, I tried to contact my mom but I can never find a trace of her any where i slide up and down the pole and get down and let my ass do it's thing when the song was over I get my money and walk off and see my girl the only girl who knows everything, Jania.  

" melody you did good" she says yup I changed my name people around here know me as melody cause it's my strip name too.

"girl I say putting my money in my money bag and picking it up my shift was over and so was Jania's and we walk out and head to BMW and head home 

"girl did you see that man looking at you," Jania says I look at her "yes I did but I'm not worried about him," I say " girl you haven't had any dick since like two years ago," she says she was right one day we went to the club and I got tipsy and woke up in some niggas bed he did put it down well but I'm focused on my money plus I doubt my dad is still looking for me I mean its been five years that person is most likely met someone by now I thought we pull up to our apartment and I notice a nice black SUV sitting in the front we get out.

"bitch I know you see that SUV," Jania says pulling her pink gun out I pull mine out shiid if anybody try shit we strapped I open the door and walk in and see my dad sitting on the couch
