Green Chapter Two
A short while later the most attractive man
she had ever seen entered
the bank. Lost in his good looks Kenya
had to find the words "May I help
you?" He introduced himself. " Yes my
name is Malik Maxwell Williams.
I would like to open an account". "Mr.
Williams please follow me to my
office". Malik was in Kenya's office for
twenty minutes before making his
departure. Kenya made it up in her mind
that she would get to know Malik
on a personal level. Kenya lived a rather
dull life unto the point she decided
to get involved with Malik. Kenya was a
plain looking black woman in her
30's who never had any real luck with
men. The next day was Saturday so
it was Kenya's day off. She spent most of
her time paying bills and shopping.
She pulled into the Emerald Lady
parking lot got out
of her 2003
BMW and went inside. Looking for
something to make Malik notice her.
Kenya picked out a low cut v-neck red
top, a short black skirt that flattered
her figure, and black knee high boots.
Kenya paid $236 for the attention of a
man.
I must be crazy thought Kenya as she
handed the cashier the money. Walking
back through the Emerald Lady parking lot
Kenya bumped into Nubia her one and only
friend.
