“Picking a man based on his identifiable features and education wasn’t exactly a romantic way to have a child. I’d chosen the hair color, eye color, and height as if this person was some doll I was ordering to fit predefined criteria. In real life, finding a mate was so much more involved yet in some aspect it was easier because you knew you loved the person. When you were in love I imagined that the specific looks of your partner wouldn’t be an issue.”

“First, they smile in your face, then they tell you how good your resume looks, then they tell you that they can’t hire you, and then tell you that they wish you the best. How the hell can you wish me the best when you wouldn’t give me the job? How can you tell me how good my resume looks, but then won’t hire me? Don’t tell me how good my resume is, then tell me that you can’t hire me. I know my credit is bad... I know that I have student loans out the ass. I know that. Don’t remind me. That don’t mean I’m going to steal from your bank. I have much more class than that. My dad raised me better than that. I don’t steal and I hate people who do.”

“Hey, baby girl. Daddy needs your chocolate ass to get better. Me and you got some unfinished business, young lady. Plus, daddy needs some more of those scrubs. They are working for my hair and my face, Nae. I never told anybody this before, but I need you, baby.” Wait a minute… I think I know that voice, or do I? Damn it, my brain is starting to hurt. “She smilin’ a lil’ bit, bro. Keep talkin’.” “Baby, you need to get better so we can figure out what hoe ass nigga did this to you. I promise they are gon’ die. You mine, shorty. I don’t care about that wack ass nigga you got. You can believe that shit, T-Rose.” Is this the guy from California my dad was talking about? He knows me. He sounds good as hell and he likes my scrubs. I hope he looks as good as he sounds. T-Rose? Someone called me that before. Damn it! No one can hear me. Why can’t nobody hear me? “We have to go now, Trenae. Get better.” Finally,”

“Bitch, what the fuck you come running out like that for! You know when one of us run, we all fuckin’ run! I damn near collapsed a lung running out the damn house!” “It… there… it…” “Deep breaths, Gianna. In through your nose and out through your mouth,” he coached me. After a few minutes of doing that, my breathing had gotten back to normal.”
