A single father trying to pave the way for both himself and his son, I didn’t really understand it then, but now that I look back, it was amazing of...him to take on such responsibility. I probably didn’t help much at the time, but that’s beside the point. 

My father never worked normal hours like some people. He didn’t work the nine to five shifts like some, and never really had weekends off. Monday and Friday were his days, and Fridays always for the two of us. It was our father and son. Sholonda told me a bit about herself. She was the wife of a wealthy African-American businessman, and the mother of his sons and daughter. They had an open relationship ever since she came out as bisexual to her friends and family. As part of their arrangement, she got to indulge her lust for sassy young Black women as long as she was discreet. I looked at her and smiled. Nice arrangement. This sexy older black woman got to have her cake and eat it too.Sholonda decided we should get started.. Matilda led Leon to the back of the supermarket, to the security office. It was not obvious to anyone watching him, but his eyes took in everything as they walked."It cannot be done here," Leon said softly.

William looked around and spotted Eddie with his father talking in the corner. Pointing over to the pair, he said, "He's over there with my father. Why?"

For some reason, God help me, I believe that you'll accomplish it."After a discussion in which more details about their future research projects had been exchanged, William drifted off to meet with.
