The Halloween Night 1
I took in a deep breath and knocked on the door. "Come in," Raymond said.I entered the room. "I came to give you your dinner." I gently placed the tray on the floor. He was in the bathroom having a shower, so I had to raise my voice a little bit louder, "I also came to apologize.""Okay. Wait, am coming out."He didn't waste time as he appeared, in all glory, so tempting. He only had a towel wrapped around his waist. His body was so muscled and strong. He had well-built abs, broad shoulders, and chest. Temptation, that's all I see when I looked at him. Sweet temptation got the best of me, I guess I wasn't that strong. He had lowered the towel beneath his waistband. I lowered my eyes, damn! I wanted him. The room smell was calling for romance. A gentle breeze blew past us. I was losing it. I could hear my heart, it was beating even faster. My pulse scrambled and I was sexually aroused."I see you brought me food. Tha

The Halloween Night 2
"I'm sorry," Raymond said."You know, before his illness, he was big, strapping, full of strength and confidence. I loved to see him that way, I used to admire him, his smile mostly, but now he has lost his smile."We both talked till it clocked 8 and we decided to start preparing. "What's in there." Raymond asked."Replicas of Simba's costumes from the Broadway production of the lion king.""We've got to hurry, we all need to get changed and ready to leave by 9," I said. "Do I wear makeup with this or this?""Um, probably just some neutral tones. Maybe that nice lipstick you wore the other day." Raymond answered."No, I mean something you know... tribal."Martin looked up at me with bewilderment, his eyes wide. "Mommy, is that your costume?""Mommy's not finished yet, honey. Let the babysitter do your makeup, so he can help me."Raymond started on Martin's face. "Laa Laa, babysitter. I'm Laa Laa." Martin ra

Curiosity Kills The Cat
I and Belinda took Martin and Grace out to the pond at the central park on a Saturday. The two children both stood at the water edge of the lake.Grace rubbed her hand on the mud and then on his cheeks. "You are now an Indian who is getting married, I have applied a mud on your face as tumeric.""But mud can't make a skin glow." "I know it can't but consider it to make your skin glow." She laughed. "I will have to apply yours." He said, grabbing a handful of mud. "I will have to apply this on your cheeks, come what may." She ran off, as he started chasing her. They had played, at a point, they took off their clothes and approached me and Belinda. "Grace doesn't have a penis but I do, why is that so?"I cleared my throat. "The both of you are not the same, she is a girl, girls don't have penises, only boys do.""But I want us to be the same." He cried."That's not possible. Now, wear your clothes."

The Words To Motivate
Raymond had dropped Martin off at school, he meets Davidson in the sitting room when he came back. He walked over to him and sat beside him. "Have you called your wife since she went back to New Hampshire?"  "No." "Don't you miss her?" He ignored Raymond. "I know you miss her, but you are not happy with her, you want her to pity you, you want everyone to pity you and you don't want to help yourself. Is that the man you want to be for the rest of your life? To live in pity? No, that's not how a man should do, a man is a fighter, so fight. Be that man again, a man that makes a living, a man that protects his family. You survived in a car accident, God didn't keep you alive for you to keep on being a vegetable. You are alive, you're lucky." "Luck, this is what you call this? You talk rubbish, you don't realize how much I've fought yet am still chained to this chair, unable to be a man." "The chains are of your own making," Raymond sa

Overhearing it, Martin threw his robe around him and dashed out.When the bell rang for round one, Martin felt comfortable circling Stanley. Martin felt as though he knew every move he was likely to make. Martin proceeded with a left jab to his head and danced away. He moved in and landed another short left to Stanley's head. Stanley responded with a hard right to the stomach, followed by a jab. Martin shot a hard right to the side of his head that sent him sprawling on the floor."C'mon, fight me. Get up off that floor, Stanley." Martin yelled.Stanley laid for quite some time and he got up with a dizzy eye after the count was over. There were cried of boos coming from the students, Raymond watched and he couldn't be prouder. The second round was exactly as Martin had planned

The Truth Hurts But A Kiss Would Do
The rain poured heavily on us, soaking our clothes. I turned away from him and he said, "I know how you felt when you saw me and your father, when you saw that I was able to accomplish what you and mom were unable to do. I know how terrible you feel.""Am glad you know that." I took in a deep breath. "I am betrayed by my father, I've tried to work with him but he wouldn't let me. He hasn't cooperated with me, you just came here and he worked with you." Tears fell from my eyes. "He hasn't smiled in like ages but he did for you.""You should be happy that he is progressing but you want yourself or your mom to be the only one who does that.""Yes!" I cried. "C'mon, it shouldn't matter. You will just end up being like your father, with his self-pity.""You know nothing about my father.""But I know that about him. With the help of doctor Powell, I was able to do his exercise and -""You are unbelievable, you know he doesn't like doc

It Is For Your Good
After the night we kissed, I fell into a state of love, the temporary state with outward symptoms of sleeplessness, distraction, loss of appetite, alternation of euphoria, and depression, as well as having starry fever eyes and being agitated.  What he said that night had still been on my mind, I realized that he was telling the truth. My father has been using me but I won't let him do that to me again.  Ever since then, he has been helping my father, both he and my father had kept a distance from me. I and Raymond hardly interacted, and I have been waiting for the day my father would ask for my help so I will tell him how I feel. Martin had become so attached to Raymond. He isn't the type that gets easily attached to people, perhaps he had always needed a male figure in his life. It seemed like he couldn't do without him for even a second, most times I heard him say he loves him which kills me inside.  Martin was in the sitting room an

Love On Picnic
We had gone for a picnic at the central park pond. Martin was enjoying Raymond's company, they were happy playing together. I approached them with my father. My father held a fishing basket. Martin excitedly sat on Davidson's lap. "I would love to fish too.""That's good. Do you know how to fish?""No, but Grandpa would teach me, right?""Of course, I will teach you, and we would catch a lot of big fish.""Wow, how big.""Very big.""Wow, we would have like 100 fishes in that basket.""I don't think 100 fishes would contain this basket, judging from the size.""Then, how many?""I am not sure, let's find out."I and Raymond were watching them as they were fishing. When it got late, I and Raymond set up a tent, he laid beside me. I met his eyes and held them. We stayed for long moments without a word. I turned away from his face and said,  "Thanks for bringing my father back to life. I was wrong t

After much exercise with Raymond, my father could now walk without a walker. He wasn't perfect but he could take a walk, one step at a time. Raymond held two tickets and said, "These are flight tickets to Africa and -""Would I be joining?" Martin interrupted."Um... Am sorry buddy but just me and your mom. I only have two tickets.""And what makes you think that I would be joining you in Africa?" I asked."I don't know, do you want to?" "No?" I responded.Davidson shrugged. "Come on, baby. It would be fun with him. It will be your first time visiting Africa and I plan to take Martin to New Hampshire this holiday season, he hasn't been there before and you haven't been to Africa.""Even though I've always loved to travel to Africa, and heard so much about the continent, and want a good experience, I won't be going with a man who has evil intention.""What evil intention?" Raymond asked."To take advantage of me."

Discovered In Common
"Venessa the play is going on, can you keep your phone away," Raymond called to my attention.I deleted the message and dropped my phone. I wondered who the psychopath was, whether it was my former sex client or ex or perhaps my husband who may be miraculously alive.I watched, seeing the women in the play dressed in wrappers, and the men wearing different native attires to represent their culture.After the play, a man walked up to us and said, "Oyinbo Pepe.""What's that," I asked."It means white people.""Oh... Maybe you shouldn't be using Nigerian Pidgin English with us cause we are not familiar with it " Raymond said."Okay.""So what's your name," I asked."My name's Agbai.""Okay, mine's Venessa and my friend over here, his name is Raymond.""That's good.
