Dirty Dealings

Dele – Do no evil I’ve made her my neighbor; I’ve made her my muse; and I will make her mine… I dominate these dirty bayou streets. Soon, I will make a big splash in the music industry. Kendis is the aloof bestie of my best friend’s little sister. Everyone dances to my whim. Alive or dead. Except Kendis. Like tonight. I gave her the impression I am a gentleman, gentle I am not. My taboo dealings may haunt us, but Kendis is mine to protect. Sweet Kendis suspects my dodginess. If she could leave me, she would. Still, everyday, I want to make music with her body the way I do on my saxophone. I just promised Kendis a forever I may be unable to deliver. So tonight, I slink through shadowy streets. I detour down dark crossroads before searching out gifts to convince Kendis to stay. I am taking my life into my hands, returning to my roots, but I may be in over my head bargaining with a powerful voodoo priestess. But, I’m running out of time… Tomorrow, can I give Kendis a forever she deserves?
