Introduction
Giselle………….
I
was running late, and I didn't account for the traffic out on
Landover Road at 7:15 PM! I was supposed to meet my girls
Christine and Stephanie for some drinks and laughs at Jaspers
Restaurant at 7:30! Now I was going to be at least 30 minutes late
messing around in this traffic! Christine was my best sister girl, she
was my rock when things went south with that drunk of an ex-
husband of mine, Leroy. She was the one who kept me going and not
want to throw up my hands and say, "Forget all this!" Stephanie, my
white sister girl was going to be there too! She was a white girl from
PG county, but she had a black girl swagger, probably because PG
county was predominantly African American. She stuck with me
through all my business highs, lows, in between, and eventual closing
of CGS! It was going to be a good night!
I come running my behind in the doors of Jasper’s at 7:53! I spoke
quickly to the little pimply-faced teenage waitress: "I was supposed to
meet som –“
She interrupted me right there. "Right over there, ma'am, next to
the last table on the right!"
