This nigga gets on my mutha fucking nerves.
That’s what I thought every time Carlos asked me to do something for
him. According to him, he worked all day and he needed his woman to be
his peace. Fuck his peace. Now, if only I could get my mouth to say just a
portion of what my mind thought, I would be doing good. We’d been
together for three years and we moved in with one another a year ago.
Carlos was everything my parents wanted for me. He came from money and
was an investment banker, making a pretty decent living for himself.
His family had prestige like mine, and they couldn’t wait until our
families would be joined together through our holy matrimony. Carlos was
a gorgeous man, but he was extremely chauvinistic.
He didn’t want me to
work, because as his woman, I belonged in the house, cooking his meals
and having his babies. He could kiss my big, black ass. I did tell him that I
wouldn’t stop working. That was one thing I couldn’t bend on. There was
no way I would completely lose myself being with him. As a freelance
journalist, I was able to work when I wanted to, but I found myself writing
and researching all the time, which seemed to unnerve him. It had gotten to
the point where I didn’t like being around him all the time and that was the
easiest excuse to use to get away.
There was a story I’d been watching in Nome, TX and Monday
morning, which was in two days, I would be taking a trip there whether he
liked it or not. It was a small town about two hours away from where I lived
in Katy, Texas. The farmers there had something suspicious going on with
their livestock. They were dropping like flies. Everything from goats to
hogs to cattle were mysteriously dying. No one outside of the community
seemed to care about it, so they were getting very little exposure. I planned
to change that.
After putting Carlos’ plate in the dishwasher, I poured him the glass of
wine he asked for. “Thanks, Pen. Could you hand me the remote?”
I hated when he called me Pen. He thought it was cool since I was a
writer. I cut my eyes at him but grabbed the remote from the coffee table
while he watched from his recliner. Lazy ass. One good day, my thoughts
were going to spill from my lips and shock the fuck out of his ass. With
him, I was proper and pristine, carrying myself like the stereotypical lady;
not cursing, not being loud in public, being polite, and catering to my man.
My parents had even invested in sending me to a charm school of sorts
when I was a kid.
