lay in the bed.
NOAH
You got some good dick.
TRENITY
Well you got some good ass. I am glad you’re holding me because I feel so weak.
MADISON (standing in the doorway)
How could you do this to me? And in our bed.
Madison turned and raced down the stairs. Trenity jumped out of bed and followed her. He caught her before she could walk out of the house. She snatched herself always from him.
TRENITY
Don’t pull away from me.
MADISON
Get out of my way. I am leaving you.
TRENITY
Don’t leave me. Let me talk to you.
MADISON
About what? There is nothing you can say. I saw you having sex with a man. Not a woman – a man. Then you told him you loved him. How long have you been like this?
TRENITY
Honey this was a first time thing.
Noah stood in the doorway watching and listening to their conversation.
MADISON
Get out of my way.
TRENITY
Where are you going?
MADISON
Don’t you worry about me.
TRENITY
You better not tell anyone about this.
Trenity stood in front of Madison naked. Every attempt she made for the door he would place his frame in her way. She grabbed his shoulders and kneed him in the groin. As Trenity grabbed himself and fell to the floor, Madison raced out of the door.

Brian and I were walking around Turtle Creek Mall when I received a call from Gran.
DWIGHT
Why is she calling me? (answering the phone) Hello.
GRANDMOTHER ELLA
Well hello. How are you?
DWIGHT (hesitantly)
I am good and you?
GRANDMOTHER ELLA
I am well. I have a proposition for you.
DWIGHT
I’m listening.
GRANDMOTHER ELLA
No…I want you to come by my office today.
DWIGHT
Well Brian and I are in Meridian at the mall right now. When we leave here we are going by the hospital to check on Landon.
GRANDMOTHER ELLA
Oh okay. Well I will just meet you at the hospital. I was coming up this afternoon anyway.
DWIGHT
Okay.
GRANDMOTHER ELLA
Well I look forward to seeing you.
DWIGHT
Yeah same here. (ending the call)
BRIAN
Was that your grandmother?
DWIGHT
Yes. She wants to see me.
BRIAN
About?
DWIGHT
I don’t know. She talked as though she is happy about seeing me.
BRIAN
Wow. Maybe she is waking up.
DWIGHT
Maybe so. But I will be keeping my guard up.
BRIAN
Don’t be like that. Give her a chance to explain herself.
DWIGHT
I will try.
Brian and I walked into a shoe store. Browsing around, I turned down the casual shoe aisle. Not paying any attention to where I was walking I bumped into someone.
DWIGHT
Oh excuse m….oh hey.
PATRICK
Hey boy. What’s up with you?
DWIGHT
Nothing just doing a little shopping.
PATRICK
What are you going to buy me?
DWIGHT
I figured that you would buy me something since I am home visiting.
PATRICK
You still wear a size - ten and a half.
DWIGHT
Oh you remember.
PATRICK
Why shouldn’t I remember?
DWIGHT
Maybe because you are married now and we both have moved on with our lives.
PATRICK
I only got married because you left me. You know you did me wrong.
DWIGHT
A bsolutely not, you are just mean when you get upset, that's why you stayed away. I told you I didn't want to lose you completely, but you said that you couldn't even be my friend if we were not together. I just thought we were not on the same page as far as the relationship went, I really didn't know, maybe I was wrong, but you didn't give me the chance to see if I was wrong. Then you got mad and gave me the silent treatment when I told you that I was moving. I always told you, you could be mean as a snake.
PATRICK
Well some people see the glass as half full, others see it as half empty. I admit I can have a slight mean streak, sometimes but in my mind I was giving you what I thought you were asking for. Yes maybe I should have fought harder and communicated better at that time....hell I would have walked on water if you had asked me.
DWIGHT
Well, walk on
NOAH
You got some good dick.
TRENITY
Well you got some good ass. I am glad you’re holding me because I feel so weak.
