We had been travelin fuh uh while now. When they stopped, they pissed an only gave me watuh. Night came tuh us pretty quickly an through de small window, ah could see de stars. Ah wondered how he wuz doin an if he realized ah ain't come back. Again, they decided tuh make anothuh stop. Dey wuz de most pleasure seekin slave catchuz i evuh seen in mah life. I heard dem get off de carriage and walk furthuh and furthuh away from it. When ah looked out de window again, ah saw dat we stopped----at uh whore house. De same one where ah got raped at. A hol heap uh memories came rushin back. Ah wanted tuh set dat place on fire. Ah felt myself waitin forevuh fuh them crackerz tuh come back.
Suddenly ah heard they steps along wid a giggle. Ah looked at dem through de window an realized only one uh dem came back and he came back wid uh whore. I heard him laugh an ah realized it wuz de man who held me wid mah arms behind mah back earlier. He wispered somethin intuh huh ear an she laughed out loud. He pushed huh intuh uh nearby tree, pulled up huh dress an turned uh so he could reach huh buttocks. He pinned huh tuh de tree an widout warnin, entered huh wid too much strentgh. She screamed an asked him tuh slow down, he ain't listen an went fastuh. She got used tuh it and moaned loudly. He made huh bend down, turned around, looked at me an smirked.
He made huh git up an walk towards de carriage. Once she got der, she held on tuh de bars on mah windows. Ah moved away from de windows tuh de othuh side uh de carriage. She wuz beautiful. She had honey blond hair, dark brown eyes an pink lips. Wonder what made huh end in dis hell of uh place. He did de exac same thing tuh huh but started tuh talk tuh me.
"You wanna be fucked like this nigger?" He said breathin hard.
De girl gasped wid pleasure.
Ah wished ah ain't say what ah said next. Ah shoulda stayed shut.
"Ah've been fucked bettuh."
He laughed an pushed huh away.
"They got plans for you where we takin you sweetheart." He said.
Ah heard de girl complain she ain't want tuh do nothin on de floor, but he made huh stay on de floor an at could hear himself put his stuff inside de usual hole. He groaned and so did she. Ah shut out de noise, an fell asleep. When ah woke, we wuz on de road, de second man wuz der tuh an it wuz already de afternoon uh de next day. We traveled fuh uh few more hours and made uh final stop. Dey both got out de carriage an opened de door where ah wuz held at.
They grabbed me an pulled me out.
"Where are we?" Ah asked.
" Good 20 miles from Charleston, South Carolina." De othuh one said. "Ain't nobody even know the name uh dis daggone town."
Ah saw 2 big white men come ovuh tuh us. Dey gave de men uh sack full uh money an dey took me away. Ah screamed in mah heart fuh Daniel tuh come git me, tuh make love tuh me one more time--but de more ah screamed, de more i gave up on evuh seein him again.
De men took me intuh anothuh big house. Ah'd seen too many an dat scene bored me. Dey threw me inside uh dirty shack an walked away.
Der wuz no way in dis world ah could evuh imagine whut would happen nex.
