“I’m tired of ’em. I’ve had ’em so long, I forgot what I look like without ’em. I think I’ll get it cut real short and dye it platinum blond like Eve,” Emako said one day after chorus.
I tried to picture it. “That might look dope.”
“Dope? Why don’t you just talk like the square that you are? You worse than that girl on BET slingin’ ghetto slang.”
“Why you always gotta criticize me? Like you’re tryin’ to make me feel bad. I’m gettin’ tired of it.”
“Don’t get all mad,” Emako said.
“That’s what you... always say. I’m gettin’ tired of that too.”
“Okay. I’m sorry. Talk any way you wanna talk. Ain’t nuthin’.”
“Besides, I gotta talk like that. You never know. One day it could be me. 106 & Park. Live from New York,” I said.
“I said sorry.” She looked at me like she was sincere. “You know it could be like that,” she added.
“For real, huh?”
“For real,” she replied.
