* Asia's P.O.V *

"You are so crazy, I can't stand you!" I said, putting my hair in a high bun. "I'm serious and you know I am." My new friend, Jaide says to me. It was a real slow night at the club. However, I did make $800 tonight so I wasn't complaining. I had just finished giving this fine ass nigga a lap dance. He told me he was a rapper and I think he said his name was Lamar. I mean he was cute and everything but my main concern was the money. He did give me his number once we got done though.
Jaide was a newbie and had only started working at the club a few months ago. She was young, 21, going to school part time and she said she needed money. Plus, she was a bad bitch so I told her I would take her under my wing and teach her everything I knew about the game. I was her mentor. Her words not mine of course.
Anyway, she and I were in the dressing room talking when Mya walked in. I rolled my eyes. "This snake ass bitch." I said, under my breath. "Who?" Jaide questioned. "This bitch Mya." I said, loud enough for her to hear me. "You don't like her?" Jaide says. "Nah, we actually used to be cool until I found out she fucked my man." I said. "Ooh, yikes." Jaide said, doing her makeup.
"Asia, somebody's here to see you." Our house mom, Tina says. "Who?" I asked. "I think you need to see for yourself." She says. I sigh deeply and get up from my seat. "I'll be right back, Jaide." I said. "Okay, take your time." She says.
I walked out of the dressing room and saw my no good ass baby daddy. And what made things even weirder was that he was here with my sister, Carmen. "There she is. Hey, sissy!" My sister says, running up to hug me. I hugged her back, but was still confused as to why they were at my place of employment, together. "Hey, Carmen. What are y'all doing here, together?" I said.
"Right, we might as well get right to the point." Terrell says. "What's going on?" I wanted to know. "Well, we been fucking around for the past couple months. And... we're together." Carmen says. "Y'ALL WHAT?!?" I yelled. "Calm down before you do something you gonna regret,Asia!" Terrell said, reaching out to touch my arm. "Touch me and I swear to God I'll fuck you up!" I threatened.
"Asia, calm down!" Carmen says. "Calm down?!? You come into my place of employment to tell me that you fucking my baby daddy and you telling me to calm down? Bitch, how dare you?!" I said. "It's not even that serious." Terrell says. "Nigga, are you dumb or are you stupid?" I fumed. My blood was boiling. I was heated. I know I may have done a lot of fucked up shit but this was a new low.
"Well, maybe if you never cheated, you'd still have a man." Carmen said. I couldn't control my emotions at the moment. So, before I knew it, I started swinging. I went off and punched Carmen in the jaw. "You may be my sister but you got me fucked up. Don't come near my son ever again. Don't ask to see him cause the answer will always be no. As far as I'm concerned, his Auntie Carmen is dead." I said, before being lifted up off the ground by security. "And as for you, Terrell? Hah, you might as well get ready to take me to court, bitch! You thought I was crazy before? You ain't see nothing yet, nigga!" I yelled.
"Girl, is everything okay? Are you good?" Jaide asked. I was pacing back and fourth. I was so fucking angry, I could chew bricks. Tina told me that I need to cool off, so I was sent home for the day. Jaide came over to check on me. Bless her heart. We were sitting in my living room. My legs were shaking at this point. I had been crying tears of anger for at least 15 minutes now. I had reached my breaking point.
"Did Tina tell you what happened?" I asked. Jaide shook her head. "No, she just said you got into a fight and needed to go home." She tells me. I sighed, and lit a blunt. "Well, Ima tell you what really happened. My sister Carmen, and my baby daddy showed up at the club. They told me they been fucking around for a couple months and decided to be a couple." I said. Jaide made a face. "That's fucking nasty!" She says. I laughed after blowing smoke out my nose. This how you know I was stressed. I ain't smoke weed in at least 2 months. "Ain't that some shit?" I said. "How is your baby daddy gonna explain that to your son? What's gonna happen if he gets your sister pregnant? That baby is gonna be Amari's cousin/ brother? What the fuck?!" Jaide said. I couldn't help but laugh. "You funny as fuck!" I told her. Jaide laughed with me. "I try." She says.
"On some real shit though? Everything that's been happening to me lately? This is probably my karma." I admitted. "Why you say that?" Jaide asked. I looked at her. "I've done some fucked up shit to people." I said. Saying this all out loud for the first time? It felt good.
"We've all done fucked up things. Ain't nobody perfect. But your baby daddy fucking your sister? That's nasty! I'm sorry but I can't get over that. That shit ain't normal!" Jaide says. I laughed once again. "Yo, you really funny as shit." I said to her. She smiled. "I'm being for real. We all have a past and we all make mistakes." My friend tells me. "You're a good ass person." I said to her. "You are, too!" She says. "But I'm not." I say. "Well, it's not too late to make things right." Jaide says.
