Po'Em finally had her dream , The Whale in the water. She had all her friends everyone she could think of She invited . Her casino , restraunt ,hotel. It was a Blow up success! She only booked 6months ahead, in case her plans changed. She was in Heaven. Her mom and dad had both helped her so much , that she didn't know how to thank them.
Now, she lived here and she could be with Hennesy whenever and wherever they wanted and Duncan. Whom ever she wanted. She was her own woman.
By the end of the first year the Whale was in the black and Hennesy was her man, he said so. She took the Whale into a new direction by hiring girls. They were treated with respect and were very well paid and were not expected to do anything they they felt was perverse. They learned not to even try to play Po'Em.
She enjoyed Hennesy , he was funny, loved sex with her and he wasn't afraid to share with her. She never crossed the line he drew in their relationship.
Then one day in 2396, Hennesy left the Whale and her and went away . Po'Em never knew why and never asked -him. Duncan was still with her for the first 6 months , then feeling that po' would never be with or marry any one man, he found someone of his own. Po managed to handle that . It was almost 6 Months that she started looking for someone else . A steady man of her own. She went to Marijuana for help and was rewarded with Matthew. They had been together 2 weeks, when Hennesy came back into her life.
