My mom and step father were 17 years old and they owned a Capuchin monkey... In the hood.... How did they not expect police to know they were drug dealers?
My mom use to always say “he loves that monkey more than he loves his child”....
But eventually, they got locked up... My mom had one child and was desperate to get out of jail... So she did what she had to do, with the police officer that was working as a clerk that night.... and 9 months later, BOOM ... I was born
So now, my mama got 2 kids, 2 baby daddies, and a damn monkey.... She’s 19
At this point , my step dad is in and out of jail. My dad has a wife and Kids. My mom is basically on her own... 2 kids, and a got damn monkey....
She finds an apartment... The land lord is old af... My mom is in and out of jobs tryna take care of 2 kids and a got damn money... One month, she’s behind on rent... So she offers the land lord something “else”.... 9 months later... my little sister is born
Now, she has 3 kids, 3 baby daddies .... AND A GOT DAMN MONKEY!!!! She’s 23
My step father finally gets out of jail. He becomes a gang leader and starts making $$$$$$.... He takes his monkey to live with him and he sends my mom $$$ anytime she ask! He also adds 3 dogs and 2 snakes to his animals collection... he loved animals
My mom is getting by... All of her baby daddies are giving her money and paying her bills... then Boom... We get word that a rival gang is looking for my step father! So we have to move out of the hood for protection... (idk if i should be tellin all our business but im drunk)
We end up moving to Itasca Il. Its a suburb outside of Chicago. Hella rich people. I was the only black kid at my school.... yea, no! But it was temporary... we only stayed for a year. We had to wait til my step dad killed the ppl that were looking for him
We moved back to the Westside of Chicago..time went on. I wake up one day and moms tells me My step father got killed (shot 15 times). My oldest brother is so hurt. Him and his dad were really close! But my mom tells him “you live by the sword, you die by it”... she’s a Capricorn
I get to the funeral... Everybody is crying... My step father was like the Santa

The Monkey (Makaveli) knew my step father was dead and he was pissed! He was crying... they let him get on the body... It was so GHETTO... but

I open the obituary... There’s a picture of me. Yay. There’s a picture of my brother. Yay.... but there’s like 16 pictures of the God damn monkey! Dead ass!
But anyway... My mom tries to get away from the street mentality. She goes to get her GED, goes to college. Buys a home. The monkey ended up having to get his teeth removed because he became vicious after my step father died... Then he eventually grew old and died...
Yall got my mom searching thru pictures in the garage
