Ch. 1: Baby are you pornography?

"He smells so bad!"

" Who? " Johnny asked trepidatiosly.

"Benjin!"

" Oh! " Johnny cried out.

"Johnny...he raped me!"

" Sorry! " he said.

We live in Los Angeles, the city of angels.

I'm Envy.

I'm 19 yrs. old.

I'm also a prostitute.

I'm half Filipino half Mexican and I look. Nice?! Yup.

I searched my room.

"Come on Envy!" Johnny cried from the next room.

My condo was cluttered.

I live alone on a lonely street in downtown L.A.

"I'm sorry Johnny, but I can't find your credit card anywhere...!"

Johnny sniffed then grabbed me by my head.

" listen bitch, you find it! "

He spat and I never ran away. "Bitch...! Damn!"

I winced. " Oww! "

"oww!" Melvin mocked.

He had two names.

later-

Back in the stoop

"Ladies!" Melvin cried handclapping. " get back out there! "

He bit a toothache. "Get my money!"

" Ms. Priss?! "

I stared. "Who do you mean?!"

The little Apache stared.

" you smell go-ood! "

He was only fourteen.

"I'm older than you!"

He stared. " suck me up slut! "

"why?!"

He ran.

I was always getting mocked.

" Bye, " I told Johnny. I'm tired, "

Johnny was talking to Sherridan, his girl.

She was fratergized and ugly with dark skin and a slender body.

"Johnny. She was saying. Baby !"

" I hate you! "

I broke away; running down the block tearfully.

"Melvin? the old woman said. Did you eat the candy?!"

" No, mm, "

It was Melvin's 10.5 year of life, 1977. And he was angry.

"I only wanted a sip, ma'am!" he cried.

She berated him, old ugly hoager that she was.

The lady was Ms. Germany; his neighbor and babysitter for real.

She was about 57, or 90,000.

"I need some money!" he said.

She was retarded. " No, I haven't a dollar or any silvers! "

She was evil.

back to the present

"Envy, come here ," the young man beckoned.

" What, what is it? "

I sat in quiet corner crying.

"I just wondered if you could make love to me real quick!" he uttered.

He looked cute in his Aeropostale shirt and men's skinny jeans.

I looked up. " Huh? "

"Real quick?!" his smile was pasted on. He seemed evil.

" I don't know! " I exclaimed.

Ernie(that was his name) wanted to make me his sex slave. He wanted sex twice a day.

That night we went to a hotel and made love.

Ch. 2: Ernie

The next day I made love to Ernie again then went home early complaining of a stomachache.

I hated Ernie.

Ch. 3:Reno

The next morning I hopped on a flight headed to Reno,Nevada. I couldn't wait to start afresh.

I never wanted to see Melvin again. I wasn't anybody's girl...!

In Reno I booked a hotel and enjoyed some fine cuisine.

I met a guy there. He was 9 yrs. older.

"Harvey's the name," he said.

We went to a movie and started to talk about everything under the Sun.

I made up lies -'I was divorced and lived in the city, I was looking for a vacation and was a Literature major.

He ate up the stories.

He told me he lived just outside Reno, had two kids and blah blah blah.

He was so cute. He had brown hair and piercing brown eyes, rustic build.

He wanted to get to know me.

We were thinking big.

That was on my second day in Reno.

Five days later I got a call from Johnny. I refused to answer. I was thinking about getting my number changed.

I had a new life now. I'd spent seven days in Reno!

The End
