Built Like Karma: The Plus Size Girl's Guide to Comeuppance
“Bro, it’s not a big deal. I’m just fucking her.”
My heart stopped.
Kendall’s voice replied, “But man, what would people think if you made her your girl? That’d be crazy work.”
“I’m not stupid,” Jalen said flatly. “I’d never make her mine. It’s only sex, nothing more. And honestly? It’s not that good anymore. I was gonna let her down easy before break.”
......
Aria, a plus-size beauty, thought her scholarship and condo arrangements were a dream until she met her roommate, Talia. Rich, spoiled, and instantly cruel, Talia made Aria's life miserable.
Talia’s new boyfriend, Jalen, was the campus golden boy. When Aria and Jalen were paired for a project, they clicked in ways neither expected from late night talks to shared secrets and undeniable sexual chemistry.
On Halloween night, during an all campus party, Aria sees Talia cheating on Jalen. One emotional night led to an affair that changed everything… until Jalen says some really damaging words to his roommate that were unforgivable and also heard by a once happy but now upset Aria. Disappointed, fed up, and heartbroken, Aria leaves campus and never looks back.
TEN YEARS LATER
Aria returns for the ten year reunion, confident, stunning, and a self-made CEO. Jalen is still gorgeous… but stuck in a miserable marriage with Talia.
She ignores him. Talia tries to humiliate her. Aria wins the room.
As she leaves, Jalen kisses her. She lets herself feel it, then slaps him and walks away.
THE BUSINESS MERGER
Jalen’s cruise line needs Aria’s brand to revamp their image. She agrees, reluctantly.
Now they’re forced to work side by side, trapped between old wounds and new sparks.
Some love stories never die. But some can burn you twice.

I let out a tired sigh and glance at Nia.“Well, I’m a little tired, girl, and it’s almost midnight. We’ll come see baby Veronica in the morning.”She yawns wide and points at me. “You better.”I smile, then look over at Matt. “We’re going to your house, okay? And your kids are still with your in-laws?”He nods. “Yeah, they’ll be home tomorrow. They can’t wait to see you, Un-tee.”I chuckle. “Maybe we’ll bring breakfast.

Please.”I shake my head, laughing, and glance over at Jalen. “See what I just started?”He grins. “Yeah, I want her to cook for me too. She hasn’t really been feeling that great since, you know… the pregnancy.”Matt freezes. “Wait, what pregnancy?”I blink. “Your wife didn’t tell you?”He turns slowly toward Nia. “You didn’t

They check you when you first get here, maybe pop in to see if it’s time for the epidural, check your dilation, and if everything’s good? You probably won’t see them again until it’s time to push.”I

As tragic and messy as the circumstances were, the truth was simple: the companies were thriving.I shook my head slightly. “Alright. Everything looks excellent. Any questions?”Vlade leaned back in his chair. “Nope. But I do want to circle back to the uniforms.”Everyone looked up.“So,” he continued, “we got great feedback and the survey scores are high. Are we sticking with this design? Same uniforms, rotating colors every quarter? Or do we want different colors based on department?”We went through it again: front desk in uniform color suits, food and beverage in coordinated shades, teal tops with darker green pants, forest tones, light and dark variations.

Like clockwork, Talia sat in the parking lot from early morning until the end of the workday. And every single time, she missed Aria.The reason was simple.Aria was driving a late model sedan, an older Toyota, fully intentional. Not flashy. Not luxury. Just a clean, strategic car that blended in, the kind of vehicle you’d expect an Uber driver to use. No one ever thought to look twice at it, especially not someone obsessed with appearances.And every time Aria passed by, Talia never noticed her.At home, Jalen was always there.He hadn’t gone back to his house once.It wasn’t by choice, it was for survival. Every time he pulled up to the gate of his gated community, reporters were camped outside. Cameras. Microphones. And Talia. Always Talia. It was insane. Somehow she managed to

I was ready for her and whatever she thought she was going to try.I slipped on my jacket, grabbed my purse and briefcase, and walked out of my office. The building was nearly empty. I glanced at my watch and shook my head.

She told me she hasn’t had any real morning sickness in weeks, and I’m grateful as hell that the mess with Talia hasn’t touched her the way I feared it would as far as her nerves would go.I move quietly, pulling on my underwear while I watch her sleep.

The doctor said stress can cause complications, and this pregnancy has been smooth so far, and I want to keep it that way.”She exhaled, her breath fogging the window beside her. “I know.”A red light forced them to stop.
