Saturday evening, most of the girls are out, but Winter sits in her room reading a letter from her dad. It basically says that she can learn a lesson from him: people will love you when you have a lot of money, but “[w]hen your dough is low, you ain’t shit” (212). After reading the letter, “[t]wo tears came rolling down without [Winter’s] permission” (212). Rashida asks her what’s wrong, but Winter quickly says nothing: “Act like you’re so cool, like you’re in control of every little thing. Why can’t you just admit when something isn’t alright so somebody could help you?” (212).

Winter and Simone had planned to go to a Wu-Tang concert. Winter had asked her to steal an expensive outfit she had been eyeing for a while. However, that night, Simone doesn’t show up, and Winter just thinks she probably got too tired since she’s pregnant. Instead, Rashida and Winter talk, and Winter says that she’s been “fucking since [she] was twelve years old” (213). Rashida confides that she “could say [she’s] virgin because [she] never had sex voluntarily” (213). The last time Rashida saw Souljah, Winter asked her to ask Souljah if she knew Midnight.
