..a strange conversation.

steele here's picture

This happened a few nights ago. I will call this little ditty "the conversation that kept going downhill".......

..so I was out walking around my hood the other night and about 9:30 PM arrive back at my house and as I am heading up my walkway I see some chick walking down the street, right on 122, very diligently and kind of looking like she was pissed off. I had my headphones on, but I did hear her say something to me....so I take my headphones off and said "what was that" ?...and the following ensued:

...now, this chick was about 19-20 I would guess.

Her: Hey there, do you have a cigarette?

Me: Oh....no, sorry, I don't smoke

Her: Okay.......(pause)....um, hey, do you think you could give me a ride somewhere?

Me: (thrown at first).......oh, um........well.......um......where you need a ride to?

Her: Down near Park ave....I'm stranded out here, and need to get back to my apartment.

Me: (just trying to be a good Samaritan I guess).......um sure, I guess I can do that.

(so she walks over to my truck and we get in....i'm kinda nervous cuz it was dark and she was kinda fidgeting with her pockets and stuff, so I kept an eye on her as she got in my car.......I did not want to get a shiv in the throat......but it turns out she was just high on something and was just all spazzy in general)

...(now pulling out of my driveway, searching for small talk)........

Me: So what happened to you, did your car break down....

Her: No no, i was visiting a friend up on Pine Street (right up the street from me), but I got stranded there and wanted to leave....so I just started to walk towards tatnuck SQ but then I saw you.

Me: oh okay.....so wherebouts on park ave do you live?

Her: Behind Leitrims, on Townsend Street.

Me: Don't know it, but is it near Hudson Street (the only street behind Leits I know)

Her: Yes, it's next to that one.

Me: OH okay, no problem

...(slight pause ensues)

Her: Man, I sure wish I had a cigarette

Me: yeah, sorry about that, I just don't smoke

Her: Yeah it’s okay....I just need one real bad.

Me: Oh okay

Her: ...yeah, so, I just got out of jail.

Me: (says to myself........here we go)

Oh really, what for?

Her: I assaulted a cop

Me: Oh man, well, how long were you in for?

Her: About 4 months..I just got out 2 weeks ago.

Me: Well, at least you’re out......did it suck in there or what...did you get your ass kicked?

Her: Naw, nothing like that happened.

Me: oh well that’s good.

her: (sigh).....I gotta tell you.....selling ass really takes its toll on you though

Me: oh really....yeah, I can imagine....how long you been doing that?

her: a few years.......

Me: do you have a boyfriend though?

her: yes, and a girlfriend too.

Me: oh you like girls.....?

Her: yeah but I like guys better.....plus guys give me money too.

Me: your boyfriend gives you money to fuck him too?

her: yes

Me: What? that is brutal man.

her: naw, I don’t' think so.....

Me: Wow, I do. Do you mean he pays you for each transaction or just "takes care of you"

her: well, takes care of me, but he pays either way.

Me: So where did you go to High School?

her: Doherty, but I dropped out after the first day?

Me: as a freshman?

her: yes as a freshman, but then I went to alternative school but I dropped out of that too.....

Me: oh okay...wow

Her: Okay well, here is my street

Me: Okay well good luck

her: Thanks, and thanks for the ride home.

..and that was that....my little unexpected encounter. At least I did not get the shiv......and neither did she.

.....I'll consider us both lucky.

She's right, selling ass really does take it's toll.

Re: ..a strange conversation.

Her: so...how can I repay you for the ride, mister?

Me: Please, don't call me that. You're making me feel old...it's rather creepy.

Her: Oh stop. (she brushes her dirty, smoke stained fingers through my hair) Why don't you come in for a minute?

This is starting to sound like an excerpt from Pentouse Forum circa 1983.

Re: ..a strange conversation.

i don't know what she was angling for...but I did not open myself to any lines of conversation that would send us down that road.....

..poor girl was totally jonesing for a cigg and was high on meth, coke, heroine, or something...while she was talking she had all these wacky facial expressions like she was Blair's cousin with cerebal paulsy from Facts of Life.

You should put one of those: DO NOT ATTEMPT warnings at the top pf that or something, those kinds of situations don't normally go so smoothly.

haha, well, I think that would have weirded things out more then they already were.......she looked a lot like a very disheveled Allanis Morissette on meth.

oh yeah and she also said this little quip:

"yeah so my ex GF wants me back, now that I am out of jail. But I told her that probably won't work...since we are kinda both now working the streets".

....and I get pissed when my cat pukes on my kitchen floor.
...guess my problems are not so bad.

I see a repeat customer in the making. I can't wait until she shows up on your door and your girlfriend answers.
Have we learned nothing from Eddie Murphy over the years. Never give a hooker a ride home out of the kindness of your heart.

ASS, GRASS or GAS...Nobody rides for free.

Re: ..a strange conversation.

WELL?

was she hot???


"what?"

Stacy's picture

Re: ..a strange conversation.

Well I for one am really looking forward to hooking thread numero dos! I wonder how long it will take her to show up...better warn the lady of the house! (she was a bi hooker though right? this has all the makings of a jerry springer style disaster)

JoeTaco's picture

Re: ..a strange conversation.

I'd suggest you keep a pack of cigarettes in your truck from now on. See what shes willing to do for them. I'm not sure if bartering for services is even illegal.

steele here's picture

Re: ..a strange conversation.

no she was not hot....not horrible...like I said, allanis morrissette type of face on a real bad day.....thin, etc.

yeah i was thinking that on my way home...shit, the girl knows where I live.

..but I know where she lives too...hahaha.

..nah, nothing but a harmless ride home.

i remember saying to her though "well, hopefully you can bum a cigg off one of your roommates when you get home" but she said "naw, they all broke too".

first of all, who knew hookers had roommates? hahhaa.

Call girls, sure, they have rooomates...but not a hooker.

I thought a pimp was her roommmate.

speaking of hookers though.....just found out that a hooker goes to FUSION all the time on Water Street on Saturday nights....she comes in around 9:30 and sits by herself.....some young thing, not even that bad looking, but I asked the people working there and they confirmed she was a pay for play type of gal.

Re: ..a strange conversation.

Hookers are everywhere...EVERYWHERE....they've even taken to advertising on craigslist as I imagine competition has gotten rough.

If your a fan of conversations with the drug addicts, go sit at the bus stop downtown for about an hour, anytime of day (although after dark is not recomended). You dont even have to participate in the conversations, just sit somewhere and listen to them interact...its fascinating. Ive named a few of the regulars, there is Angry Guy, who touts the details of his life at the top of his lungs, I KILLED 200 PEOPLE IN NAM!! I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND WHOS A NURSE!! IM GOING TO CASH MY CHECK AT THE BANK!!!! And my personal Favorite, is God Guy. God Guy looks like a normal businessman, but if you make eye contact he rushes over to you and quickly gets belligerant about your lack of preparation for the apocolypse, and offers solutions in the form of colorful graphic pamphlets and Jesus. One time God Guy got in Angry Guys face....oh the humanity......

Re: ..a strange conversation.

Nice! not sure if they are still around but my faves from my WRTA days were...

Mickey Guy - huge 6'6" +350lb dude, mildly retarded, wearing all Mickey Mouse gear .. jacket, key chain, shoes and beanie hat with helicopter on it. That guy was awesome! Looked like a wrestler who could totally smash anyone near him but was obsessed with Mickey Mouse and really timid

Turrets Guy - disheveled heavy set older guy in his 50's often wearing jeans and a flannel shirt with crazy curly white/grey hair ... always mumbling and swearing at himself while staring menacingly and glaring over his eyebrows

Re: ..a strange conversation.

Tourrette's guy was my all time favorite, I wonder what ever became of him? My ex used to start conversations with him back in the day...I forget his name...

hahahha, mickey guy......gotta love the helicopter beanies......

Hey Nytmare, I believe the Mickey guy is still down there. Is he the same dude that dresses up like a security guard and looks all official like he "patrolling" city hall?

Ha! no shit. I see that guy all the time and always wonder what his function is. (the renta- renta- cop)

Re: ..a strange conversation.

Yes, Mickey is an (un)official cop now. Hes been dressing like one for about three years,and hangs with the cops donw there a few hours a day. Its probaby the cutest thin ive EVER seen... and I think Turrets Guy and Angry guy are in fact the same guy.....

Re: ..a strange conversation.

BTW, it's Tourrette's.

A turrets guy would be especially scary. :-)

Police patches and badges all over a Championship Patriots Jacket. A cop told me that they've let him take some police exam 3 times and someone tells him he juuust missed it.

The first time I saw him (back when I was running the Foster Street Honey Farms,) Not so cute was the belt that held a mag light, billy club, and who knows what else... with sweatpants. Had no idea his intentions at first, but grew to enjoy him.

Re: ..a strange conversation.

BTW.... I'm confused .. was she hot (Blair Warner's Palsied Cousin?) or not? (Al anis?)

I also commend you for recognizing that it was strange.

I think Steele had her blow him but he's trying to sound like a sensitive caring man.

We'll know the truth when he starts a thread about his penis falling off.
