anywhere.”
So Kenny got pissed off. He went into my Pontiac LeMans, and, because he hooked up my radio, he disconnected it just to be spiteful. It was very heated that day because Marilyn wouldn’t stop crying. Her father was there, her father who was six foot four and 225 pounds. He lifted me up by my neck with his hand and said, “What the hell is going on here? My daughter is crying,” and I remember this because he lifted me completely up off the ground. As I write about it now, it’s kind of funny. But it was not back then. I was really small, and this guy was six foot four.
I said, “Can you let me go? Can you let me go?” It was crazy. And I told Kenny, “No, I’m not going,” and everything got calmed down. When I left the house, I went to go turn my radio on. The radio didn’t play. I was like, Oh, this guy disconnected my radio.
So a week went by. Kenny and I did not talk. I was pissed off at him, he was pissed off at me. We didn’t talk for that whole week. One night, I was working a shift at Mario’s Restaurant doing the valet parking. There was downtime when customers would be eating in the restaurant after I parked their car. So I decided to work on my radio, but I didn’t know what I was doing. But I eventually figured it out, and I got the radio to work. I was very proud about that. I was like, You know what? Ha ha. Kenny, you thought you were going to disconnect my radio. I hooked it up without you. I didn’t need you, because I always needed Kenny for everything—to fix my bicycles, fix my minibike, help me out with anything. Anything mechanical, I used to call Kenny. So I felt proud that I was able to do this on my own. I thought, After Mario’s, I’m going to take a ride out there with a couple of my friends. I’m going to go to the old building, and I’m going to show Kenny that I hooked up the radio—I hooked up my shit.
