Speaker 1 (00:28):
All right, thank you, nephew. Subject I want to tell
her so bad. Dear Stephen Shirley. I am the baby
girl of two older sisters. My oldest sister lives in
a gated community and she's a housewife. But she's not
too bright. She's just a rich and pretty homebody whose
husband has been cheating on her for a long time.
(00:48):
I felt bad about it for years, but now I
feel worse because I have a secret that I can
no longer keep. My middle sister is having sex with
my brother in law, and I saw it for myself
their house to babysit for them while they had a
Christmas party at the house. My nephew and I were
upstairs in his room playing a video game, and I
heard a lot of banging on the bathroom wall closest
(01:11):
to his room. I went and listened at the door
because it was locked. I heard my middle sister's voice,
but I couldn't hear the man's voice. I waited for
them to come downstairs. She came first, then my brother
in law. I was shocked that my older sister didn't
notice them. A few days later, I picked my nephew
up from school and he said, my middle sister is
(01:34):
at their house all the time to meet with his daddy. Here. Recently,
I found out my middle sister is working with my
brother in law. So I finally told her that I
know everything. She smirked like she was proud, and she
told me that my brother in law really wants to
be with her. I told her she's older than I am,
(01:55):
but way more stupid. How was I born into a
family full of such ditsy women. I want to tell
other my older sister what's going on, and I don't
care about being the black sheep of the family. Should
I finally expose my cheating brother in law? Wow, Oo,
your sister is foul. I'm sorry you have to be
(02:16):
in the middle of all of this mess. I mean,
you know, you're the baby, You're the baby girl, and
you have these two older sisters, and your sister has
no remorse. I mean, this is her flesh and blood.
She's doing this too. The husband is trash too, and
obviously they both don't care about anybody but themselves. I
want to say that this is none of your business.
(02:37):
I really, really really want to say that, but this
is family and it's your sister doing it to your
other sister. This is crazy and it's just way too
close to home because this can be This can destroy
your family, This can break you. Guys up. You said
your sister smirked and said that the husband wants to
be with her when you told her that you knew everything.
(02:59):
So as far as I'm concerned, she deserves to be
exposed and she needs to know she can't get away
with this. This is wrong. You'll have one sister mad
at you and the other one mad but grateful to
you for telling her, hopefully, so get ready to deal
with this. You know these attitudes and what's going to
happen these situations if you do tell Steve, you.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Know what Shirley, I agree with you because I don't
have a clear cut way because this is family. Yeah. Now,
if this is just your girlfriend or something like that,
I'll say, mind your business. But they'd have made it
your business by letting you find out what the carelessness
of it all. Now here's the situation. She has two
(03:45):
older sisters. The oldest sister is married to this man,
and all she is is a stay at home mom,
which is great, toughest job in the world. But she
says she's not too bright, she's just it's a rich
and pretty homebody whose husband has been cheating on her
for a long time. Okay, Now, come to find out
(04:06):
he's cheating with your middle sister. So your oldest sister's
husband is sleeping with you. All's middle sister because you're
the youngest and the oldest one is married to this man,
and he's sleeping with the middle sister. You found out
because of the baby and something you heard in the
(04:27):
bathroom and banging on the walls and all this here. Okay, cool.
Normally I would say, like Shirley said, mind your business,
but this is family. I can cut to the chase,
and when we come back on the second half. I'll
just tell you. I'll take questions on this from Shirley.
Anything she would ask me as to why as a
(04:49):
man would do something like this. So blah blah blah
blah blah. But here's the deal, the solution for this.
I think. Should I give the solution now or wait
till the next break?
Speaker 1 (05:00):
You know, let's hold it over, Let's wait, let's wait
a little bit.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Yeah, well, I need to know how much time I
got to kill, so I can just let me think.
All right, let me put it to you this way.
I have a solution for this.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
I think I have a way that would solve it
for everybody. I want to hear that, And I think
I have of the perfect way to do it. And
then we let the chips fall where they may. This
is going to be shocking what I'm about to say.
(05:38):
This solution I have never offered before, but I think
I found it to help everybody with this situation. Now,
listen to me when I give you my summation of
what I think should happen. You can ask me any
question you like about it when we come back. Shirley,
(06:00):
I chose this as a viable solution. What good I
think it may do what harm I think it may cause.
But this is a different situation, so let me go
over it one last time. There are three sisters involved.
The one who's written the letter is the youngest sister.
She has two oldest sisters. Her oldest sister is married
(06:20):
to a man who has money. She thinks her oldest
sister is just a rich, pretty homebody who has a
husband that's been cheating on her for a number of years.
Come to find out she's cheating with the middle sister.
She don't know what to do. She approached the middle
sister and told her she knew, and she smirked and said,
(06:41):
he really wants me fired out. What my solution is after.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
This coming up a twenty three minutes after, I want
to tell her so bad that the subject will be
right back. You're listening hard Morning show, All right, Steve,
come on, let's recap today's strawberry letter. The subject is
I want to tell her so well.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
Here's a deal this. Three sisters are involved in this.
The youngest one wrote the letter because her oldest sister
is married to a man with money, but she considers
her oldest sister just a pretty dumb homebody whose husband
has been cheating on her for years. She found out
through babysitting over at the house that the woman that
she's cheating with is their middle sister. And the baby
(07:26):
confirmed it at school, talking about she always come over
my daddy house, and you found out they worked together.
You finally told your sister, your middle sister, that you
know everything. She smirked like she was proud, and she
told me that my brother in law really wants to
be with her. And then you told her she's older
than I am, but way more stupid. And then she says,
(07:48):
I was born into a family full of such ditsy women.
I want to tell my oldest sister what's going on.
I don't care about being a black sheep, But the
family said, I finally expose my cheating brother in law.
Well the exposing it's gonna be your cheating brother in
law and your backstabbing family portraying sister. Now, the lowest
(08:11):
person in this letter is your sister. Yeah, because she
violated her sister. This is family now, So she's the
lowest person in this letter. Your brother in law ain't
worth a damn. I don't know how he thought this
was a smart. Move all these chicks out here, dog,
(08:33):
and this one you pick. You got to be crazy,
but it's happened. Here is my solution for the entire thing.
The girl said, I don't care about being the black sheep,
but the family should. I finally expose my cheating brother
in law. Here's the deal. If you tell it, your
(08:53):
oldest sister gonna be mad at you, the brother in
law gonna be done with you, and the middle sister
be done with you, like here's your fault and it's not.
But since you bring the person that brings the bad news,
you usually the one takes the brunt of the blame.
Here is the solution. You should go and tell your mother,
(09:18):
the mother. Go and tell your mama, present all the evidence,
and then you walk away. Let the matriarch of the
family decide how she gonna handle it. Now, I don't
know if y'all's daddy is in y'all's life. I'm assuming
(09:39):
your mother is. I'm just assuming. But if you tell
the mother, you can walk away. You can walk away,
and then your mother can handle it the way she
wants to. Because your mother could say it was teed
her up. She didn't want to know she needed somebody
to confide in. Y'all can put y'all baby sister in
this crazy position. And she came to me, that is
(10:02):
what y'all gonna do. And let somebody older have little
this situation and you get out of it and stay
away from it. But I would take it to.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
The mother and hopefully the mother, Yeah, would happen.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
I don't care what the mama do.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I mean, as a baby sister, you don't care if
the mother.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Well, if you take it to the mother, didn't, let
it be on the mother, let her decide what to do.
Then you stay out of it. Okay, take it, take
it off the youngest and put it all the way
on the oldest.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Okay. And what about what about the sister who's being
cheated on?
Speaker 2 (10:40):
The sister that's being cheated on? Yeah, I'm gonna have
to hear the news from the mama.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
This is this is tough. This is I just don't understand,
like you say, there's so many women out there. Why
would he choose the sister? Is it because of the
convenience of it all?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
The dainess of it all? So what the daringness?
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, the danger element, the ego.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
I got both these sisters. Man, I'm doing her sister too. Wow.
And he then told a couple of his homeboys, so they.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Know and the sister. The sister obviously doesn't care, because
when the young baby's sister told her that she knew,
she smirked and said, he wants to be with me anyway.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
So of course that's what he told her.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yeah, the selfishness of it all.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
But now, how you think that's gonna work. You think
he gonna divorce his wife and marry right back into
the family. Yeah, that is gonna hate him. What you
can't even You can't even a dude. Ain't that stupid?
(11:56):
You're gonna divorce this woman and then marry right back
into the family, Are you kidding me?
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Yeah? Yeah, But in her crazy head, that's what she's
thinking is gonna happen because she just smirked. She's cool
with it.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
She's jealous of her older sister because she's prettier, richer,
and she got the lifestyle. I could have had him too.
He won't me, just like he won't you. No, he
just want to do you.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
Yeah, Because if somebody doesn't tell, the baby's gonna say something,
because the baby already told the baby sister, the boy
that she you know, he already told her that she's
over there all the time. The other sister my.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Daddy and should be kissing the real hard and be
cutting the water on.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Yes, somebody's got to say something soon.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
They broke the water found in there.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Ride down.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
We ain't got no more toilets, all right.

a gated community and she's a housewife. But she's not
too bright. She's just a rich and pretty homebody whose
husband has been cheating on her for a long time.
(00:48):
I felt bad about it for years, but now I
feel worse because I have a secret that I can
no longer keep. My middle sister is having sex with
my brother in law, and I saw it for myself
their house to babysit for them while they had a
Christmas party at the house. My nephew and I were
upstairs in his room playing a video game, and I
heard a lot of banging on the bathroom wall closest
(01:11):
to his room. I went and listened at the door
because it was locked. I heard my middle sister's voice,
but I couldn't hear the man's voice. I waited for
them to come downstairs. She came first, then my brother
