When a Woman's Fed Up Page #2

---

We are standing in the gap.

Is it like a hookup line?

Tell it to somebody

who don't know you, mama.

Ooh, hook me up

with the gossip line.

I would love to stay here

and chitchat with you guys

about hypocrites who say,

"oh, thank you, Lord"

in one breath and, "Lord, girl,

no he didn't" in another.

Mmm.

But I have a doctor's

appointment.

Laticious, you can stay here

with mama if you like.

Oh, yeah. I want to hear more

about this gossip line.

- Mama.

- What?

I'm leaving you with my friend.

I want you to try your best

and act like a good example

of a Christian, okay?

All right.

I may not have much book smarts,

but I got street smarts.

And with that being said,

me and mama going to be okay.

You got that right. See?

Yeah. That's what

I'm afraid of.

Girl, go on,

take care of your business.

We going to be just fine.

I got this.

- I love you, mama.

- I love you too, baby.

Bye-bye.

I never had a mama.

Can you hold on a second,

Lakresha, honey?

I'll be right back.

Okay.

You just make yourself

comfortable, hear?

Make myself right on at home.

Is there a purpose

for all that noise?

I just like the attention

it gets me.

Well, baby girl,

it can't be good,

because that noise is annoying.

All I know is when

I'm smacking my gum,

someone's always giving me

all of their attention.

Mm-hmm, but it can't be

in a good way.

Listen, um, Lakresha, honey,

do you think that I'm being

hypocritical

because I tell it like it is?

No, moma Jean.

You just keeping it real.

Yes. That's it.

I'm keeping it real.

You know, that is so right.

Can you hold on a second

while I call one of my church

sisters and keep it real?

Go on, do what you do, moma.

All right. Yes.

Hey, sister Cleo?

It's me, sister Jean.

Oh, girl, fine.

How you doing?

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, nothing much. Just sitting

here with, you know,

this child that Tarlyn

done picked up.

You know how she is,

always picking up people

like they stray puppies.

But, girl, have I got

some news for you.

And you are not going

to believe this one.

Sister Susie's daughter

is pregnant.

Yes, she is, girl.

Uh-huh. The child that sings

in the choir.

Yes, that fast tail gal.

That's her. Uh-huh.

Yeah, she doing the holy dance,

all right.

A holy dance right up

in some boy's bed.

I know. I...

ooh, Candy?

Oh, my goodness.

Is she still with that, uh,

that Jezebel husband of hers?

She's a what?

She's a stripper?!

Oh, girl, you know what?

I can confirm that right now,

because I got one of them

right up here in my living room.

Hold on a second.

Uh, Lakresha, honey,

do you know a Candy?

Candy Cane?

Yeah, I know Candy Cane.

She's one of my best girls.
