You think further about it. Dad has never been very forthcoming with the money, and this real estate job is the first chance your mom has had to earn any money of her own since before you were born. Maybe you're being too harsh in judging her. You love your mom, slutty or not; so you decide to check her boss out.
You call Will McClintock, a friend of yours from high school, whose mom is a real estate broker herself, one of the first black women in that field in your town. "Hell, yeah, man; mom's told me about that sunnuvabitch! When she first got into the business, she worked for him for about two hours before he started putting the moves on her! Said he'd throw some extra business her way, 'even though you people don't belong in this business,' if she started giving him some poon."
"Your MOM said that?"
"Hell, no, bro; but I could figure it out from the way she got all flustered."
"So, the guy's scum?"
"Fifty ways from Sunday, dude. Way I hear it, he's telling half the brokers in town that he's banging that big-booby mother of yours, so she'll keep her job; and then he laughs his ass off, cuz she's one of his best saleswomen!"
Will was one of the few people on Earth who knows how you feel about your mother, and never passes on a chance to rib you about it; but you know he would never betray you to anybody. |
