Kindle Notes & Highlights
She always enjoyed this part of getting to know a boy. The part when he was the pursuer. The part when you appeared faultless to him and he was in awe of you, before you actually fell for him and he lost interest, and then you were the one seeing him as flawless and head over heels…Baby
They call it easy money, but ain’t nothing easy about hearing, and feeling, and seeing, and knowing, that you ain’t shit but some pussy every single day. Ain’t nothing easy about that.
“Now, see… I don’t like that. I wanna be the only one to call you baby. But if everyone calls you Baby… then I guess I’ll be forced to call you Athena.”
“Come over here…” He mumbled something after that and Baby thought he said ‘…before you get hurt”… after replaying it in her mind, she realized he had said “…before you get someone hurt”.

“Matter fact, let it be known, B. This one’s branded… she’s no longer up for discussion.”
“Pleasure, baby, you better go on with that shit! You know a period don’t stop nothing but a sentence… It damn sure don’t stop no money!”
