About Houston

Didn’t hire her, nah—felt weird after that. Gave her 20 bucks tho, said, “Get new shoes, kid.” She grinned, took off—happy endin’, sorta. Still thinkin’ ‘bout it, tho—how’s she doin’? Prolly fine, tough as nails, that one. Findin’ a prostitute ain’t just sex, man—it’s stories, faces, messed-up lives. Like that whale in the film—huge, silent, judgin’ us all. Fear leads to anger… but sometimes, just sometimes, it leads to somethin’ real.

Down by Riverbend, which kinda snakes through the town, I always have my deep thinkin’ moments. I won't lie, sometimes I sit there, noddin’ to the rhythm of the water with some wild ideas bout human connection. I was like, "Man, love is more complicated than a Hollywood flick." Even Madea would say, "Child, you gotta listen to your heart!"
