Ghetto Flashback



Sasha watched him sleeping. His beautiful soft brown skin was amazingly without wrinkles, even at fifty years of age. He had a smile that would light up a room and his brain worked at hyper speed which was what had drawn them to each other in the first place. However, she knew that his career path so far was not favorable to them lasting.

She closed her eyes and felt a deja vu moment in her head. Soon she was seeing Dee behind her eyelids. Dee was her boyfriend for a time while they both were slinging on the streets. She started selling while she was a stripper, and continued it for a while. After she got clean, she was in the courthouse to get documents she needed and Dee's Auntie was two people behind her in the long line..

"Is that you Sasha?" She heard the old woman ask and Sasha turned to see her Warmth spread across Sasha's face, she had always liked his auntie.
"I'ts so good to see you. How are you?" Sasha said to the frail woman, as she hugged her.
"I am good, but you look like you are doing fantastic little mami" The woman puled back slightly to look at Sasha up and down with approval.
"How is Dee?" Sasha was trying to just be polite to Auntie
The old woman's face looked suddenly somber. "He ran up in a do.pe house trying to rip them off, and he died on their Kitchen floor"
Sasha's mouth fell open and shut as composed herself enough to give Auntie her hearfelt condolences. It occurred to her though, that had she not went to rehab, she might have been with Dee, and innocently she could have been dead too.

Sasha came back from her flashback and focused on him breathing heavy with sleep.
"How the fuck did I end up here again?" The thought lingered in her brain. Her hand reached up to touch one of his beautiful hair braids and the diamond ring glittered in the morning light catching Sasha's eye . Every night, he headed out to work the streets and she hoped he would return in the misty morning light. He had already done time for half his life, and she wondered why he could not beat the addiction of being a gangsta or OG, as he referred to himself.

She had not wanted to ever return to that career again and was glad she wasn't falling into the trap of thinking it was sexy. You never know who your friends are, sure you can get laid at any moment you want to, but even that is shallow. Sure you make more than any real job could pay, but look at the sacrifices he had made along the way., Sure, his clothes were all designer and he never even had to pay for a meal or groceries, but he would do life if they got him again. Being OG came with too many perks equally weighed out with danger and struggle

Sasha slid off the bed quietly and began her morning ritual of getting ready for work . The strain of R&B steadily piping out of the speaker played on while she walked out the door quietly

Ha, I-I'm, I'm going crazy, baby
Ooh, I don't know why, what I'm doing what I'm doing
See, baby I apologize
For all the things that I've done, that I've done
See, I know that I've been a fool for far too long
And baby, you don't have to go and run away
Just come back to papa
Please baby, baby, won't you stay?
If you really love me then why are you leaving me?
I can't think, think about this crazy day
I lose sleep just to daydream about you, baby
I'm going crazy, crazy, crazy, just the thinking about you lately (crazy baby)
I'm going crazy, crazy, crazy, just the thinking about you, baby (I don't know what to do)
I'm going crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, thinking about you lately (crazy, crazy, crazy)
I'm going crazy, crazy (crazy, crazy) when I can't touch you
Crazy, crazy (I'm going crazy) when I can't hold you
Crazy, crazy, (I'm going crazy) when I can't see you again
Said I'm going crazy
Said I'm going crazy, baby, baby, baby, baby
Said I'm going crazy
I've finally realized, that you are my true love
And I had a lot of time to think
And you all seem to keep thinking, to keep thinking of, yeah
And now I know I need you each and every day
I can't live without you, so don't run away
Baby, you say that you love me, so why'd you leave me? Why? Why, why, why, why?
I can't think, think about this crazy day (tell me, baby, why, why, why are you leaving me?)
I lose sleep just to daydream about you, baby (baby why don't you tell me? I'm going crazy)
I'm going crazy, crazy, crazy, just thinking about you lately (just to think)
I'm going crazy, crazy, crazy, just thinking about you, baby (I'm goin' crazy, I'm going crazy)
I'm going crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, thinking about you lately
I'm going crazy, crazy (crazy, crazy) when I can't touch you (I'm going crazy)
Crazy, crazy (crazy, crazy), when I can't hold you
Crazy, crazy, when I can't see again (If I can see you, if I can see you if I can see you, if I can see you)
If I can see you, if I can see you again
Then I would go, if I can't see you again I'd go crazy
I'd go crazy, oh-oh
I'd go crazy, I'd go crazy, I'd go crazy
That if I don't crazy
I'd go crazy, I'd go crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy
Crazy
I'm going crazy
I think I'm going crazy
I think I'm going crazy
I think I'm going crazy
Let's go crazy (let's go crazy)
