We moved from Naperville to an upscale, snooty town in Connecticut. Tasha was one of my best friends (I don’t know if that was a decision I made, however) Her family was the richest I had ever met or even heard about. They had a huge house, with a huge pool, and a huge pile of problems. The mom was a psycho, she looked a little like Tammy Faye Baker but with long blond hair and a huge nose, she had a vendetta against any motherfucker who step foot in her house with they’re dirty shoe’s on. The dad was a tall pastor with a taste for girls on the brink of puberty (I think). The sons were forgettable, which is probably a scary thing; forgettable in the way that they seem harmless but may kill you with a butcher knife. And then there is Tasha, what a sweetheart she was, raping and attempting murder on innocent children. Actually in all fairness, she had no chance in that family to turn out normal.
She had a very specific smell. It was more pungent in the private parts. She smelled like a fruit that at one point smelled sweet, but turned rotten. Like an old strawberry. Or like a plate of fruit masked with a fart cloud. I smell rotten strawberry in the air sometimes, and it really scares me. I look in the front, back and sides of me to make sure that Tasha isn’t standing somewhere waiting for me in the darkness stroking an edible whip.
