After hours of driving, and talking to a doctor about my ribs, which there was nothing he could do, I arrived at my home in Sacramento. Bev, looking like a fine ass Toni Braxton, ran out the house, screaming, as I approached the door. “Leo, something’s wrong with your son. He’s beating Sam with a [...]

I Screwed Up–Story 9
I floored it as she tried to unlock the door. Kicking her face with my right foot, I was losing control of the van, dodging on coming traffic. Cussing at me, she grabbed my right foot and tried to pull me out the passenger’s window. Now, looking like I’m playing Twister, my body was twisted [...]

I Screwed Up–Story 8
We finally drove the van back to the gas station. All the while, I been trying to think of ways to get rid of this Redhead. Brute force clearly didn’t work, so I was was going to need some strategy and finesse. Suddenly remember that old man at the gas station. I stared at the [...]

I Screwed Up–Story 7
After three tries, I got my son on the phone and immediately asked, “Are you okay?” “Yes dad. I’m not hurt. I just don’t understand. How come you can’t be my dad?” He then rambled on about everything he did wrong and what everyone was saying. “Stop, stop. I am forever your dad. No ifs, [...]

I Screwed Up–Story 6
Someone said, “Real men don’t cry.” Did that man ever have to walk six and a half miles to a gas station with broken ribs? No, I don’t think so! But we finally made it to the gas station. Redhead held my hand inside the store, because she’s didn’t want me to run away. She [...]

Nicholas Jeff—Really Babe, Really?
Another reason I can’t stand this job is that it’s consumes my time and pretty much limits my personal time. Yeah, I know what your thinking, “it’s a bad economy, be glad you got a job.” You know who tells that? All my friends who have $50,000/year jobs with sick leave, vacation pay, weekends off, [...]

I Screwed Up–Story 5
Several miles later, Redhead is talking about how she was black listed from her successful family, as I emotionally kicked myself in the ass. She talked about her dreams to be a model to prove to her family she’s better, as I tried to imagine a life without my son and my wife. I’m not [...]

Nicholas Jeff–Dammit, Not Today, Part 2
Over the next few hours, I was knocked out cold. I’m surprised the police didn’t come over. But then again, the neighbors really don’t get into other people affairs. This was probably the most anti-social neighborhood I ever lived in. Luckily, my beautiful girlfriend, Chante, woke me up. Good thing she had the key. I [...]

Nicholas Jeff–Dammit, Not Today!
Long time everyone, but it’s me Nicholas Jeff and I’m back! I don’t know about you, but when I’m tired, I’m drained and anti-social. The only person I’d wanna see is my woman. But if she ain’t there, I don’t wanna see anyone, no one. Maybe some family members, but even that’s a short list. [...]

I Screwed Up–Story 4
Click here for the previous story Thank God the police showed up. Two officers stepped out the car, a black man and a white man, wearing pressed dark uniforms and clean cut. I hoped that all I had to do was tell them the truth, which was hard to believe, and I’d be going home! [...]

New to the story? Please start here from Story 1 It’s about 20 miles later, and that damn Redhead was still talking. She talked about some of the nastiest men slept with. I remembered I was trying to ignore this story about her sleeping with a homeless man with no teeth. But she slept with [...]

Nicholas Jeff–My Purpose
William, my favorite manager, had his final day today. He’s been in this industry for 40 years and at Shelly Sholes for about seven. His silvery white hair and pale caramel skin made him a father-like figure, along with his high restaurant IQ. I respected him with no questions. When I wasn’t sure about his decisions, I could calmly discuss it with him. And yet, if I had felt comfortable trusting him with blind faith, I know it would work out for the best, if not I understood his mistake. He’s the kind of manager you wonder why he’s not the general manager.

Dead Wrong Part 2
Dead Wrong Part 2 Which is more important, dignity or money? Yeah, everyone says dignity, but what if bills are due in three days? I admit, sometimes, something will happen that will make me forget I got bills to pay. So when do you shallow your pride? Hmm— So Richard pulled me upstairs into Donald’s [...]

Nicholas Jeff: Dead Wrong Part 1
Don’t you hate it when you’re 100% correct, but because you have no power in the situation, you’re 100% wrong? I mean, it’s so funny that the concept of right and wrong is more about what the boss man wants or doesn’t want.
