Prologue I had just come home from school, when Reggie, my mama’s drunk boyfriend met me at the front door. I had the eerie feeling that something wasn’t right. I wondered where my mama was, yet I didn’t bother to ask. I tried to avoid his presence by slightly trying to push him out the way. In the back of my mind I knew that wouldn’t work, though it was worth the try. “Look here little girl, don’t put your hands on me unless you’re going to do something with them.” he said with a smirk. As he grabbed me by my arm and threw me onto the floor I knew what he was up to. There was no one home to hear my screams, and no way for me to fight back. Reggie, palming my small developing breast into his right hand covered my mouth and whispered, “I promise you’ll like it”. Tears flowed down my cheeks as he took my clothes off, and ripped my panties. I was twelve years old. I have never had sex or even thought about sex until that day. Until the day Reggie took my innocence. Chapter One Monica “11 Years Later” -The morning after- I woke up from the vibration of my black berry. “Damn who could be calling me this damn early?” I thought. As I ignored the phone call I tried to remise on the night before. I’ve done a lot of crazy shit in the past that I didn’t even know I did, so when mornings like this come I begin to worry. Suddenly the toilet flushes, skeptical about whether or not I should get up and see who it is, I decided to just lay there until I seen what stood before me.
