To Serve and Protect

I remember the day she was born April 9th 1971. I was 2 years old. My mother brought her home and put her in the crib. I must of thought she was a new toy because I couldn't get enough of her. Back then she had to be heard. Cried so loud my little ass would run to her crib and say " Ooookaaay Its Oooookaaaay " grabbing her little toe while trying to calm my new favorite person down. I wasn't like most 2 years olds who got jealous when a new sibling was brought home. I embraced it. I had someone to finally play with , someone I knew I would have to protect.


Ten years later this newborn turned into a little a firecracker. She had big brains and an attitude to go along with it. I must admit I was a little jealous at first. Every grade I was in she would get there 2 years later, have the same teacher and do waaay better than I did. Hipping my parents to the fact I was a slacker and needed motivation. Which wasn't the case at all. She was just smarter than me end of story.

A year later she gets into her first fight. It was summer time. I was in the kitchen getting something to drink my Mom's ice tea was like gatorade. Anyway I hear this banging on my screen door " Slishy Slishy your sister Stughetto is about to get into a fight" OOOOH KNOOOW!!! Although Stughetto could hold her own with me in the house. I wasn't to sure about her actually having a street fight and winning. I dropped the Ice Tea half finished into the sink and ran out side.

Stughetto and this other little girl about her size are toe to toe. No punches thrown yet just a lot of pushing and shit talk Stughetto says " Im tired of you. WATCHA GONNA DO!!!" then a push. Other little girl " I'm tired of you too WATCHA YOU GONNA DO!!!!!" she pushes Stughetto back reeeeal hard. I see the tears welling up in Stughetto's eyes . Her scare tactic wasn't working and the other little girl was not backing down. Stughetto looks at me I yell out " Do what I been teaching you!!!! BOX HER!!!! BOOOOOX HEEEER!!!!! Stughetto's face gets serious and tight. She balls up both her fists. I yell out again " THATS RIGHT!!!! NOW SHOW HER WHAT YOU GOT!!!!! Stughetto yells out " HOLD UP!!! WAIT!!!! I'll be right back!!! I'm going in my house to get my boxing gloves" WTF!!!! Bloggers we didn't have any boxing gloves. The other little girl looking at me like I Thought So!!! I run behind Stughetto and go inside the house. She's on the couch crying. " Slishy I was scared" I didn't get mad that she embarrassed me in front of the whole neigborhood. Lotta kids saw what happened that day. Rumor was Stughetto had a lot of mouth but nothing to back it up.


When Stughetto and I would fight and i'm talking knock down drag out FIGHTS!!! My father would get soooo upset with me and say Slishy!!! Your not supposed to fight with your sister" My sister standing behind my pops sticking her tongue out at me. I would say " But Daddy she's always starting with me!!!!" Pops " Slishy she's your sister protect her" I followed my dads orders and let the neighborhood kids know immediately!!!! Despite what they heard . F@cking with Stughetto was like f@cking with me. Therefore Stughetto was able to run her mouth without any repercussions.

Today is Stughetto's B- day and I still feel the same way. F@cking with her is like F@cking with me. If someone says " Yo Slish!!! Stughetto just cussed me the F@CK OOOUT !!!!!" My response will be " You probably deserved it nigga!!!!

Stughetto I was placed on this earth to protect you. I don't care how old you get and how any boyfriends you run through. Its my job and no one elses

Love ya sis.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!!!!
