Samantha's POV "Dear Black Women, I see the exceptions you have to meet, I see the fear when you speak, I see the long nights you spend perfecting yourself. I see the pain you hide, I see the hate you receive from your people, I see the trauma you live through, I see the father who was never there, and the household that lacked love and emotional support. I see the work you put in to make a better life for your kid, I see your stress, I see your hurt, I see your pain, I see your tears," "I see the fear that one day your kids will experience the same, I see the judgment you receive, I see the scars both inside and out and I hate when you judge them. I see you in the mirror overanalyzing yourself, picking at everything you define as a flaw but most of all, I see your heart. I see your strength, I see your courage, I see

Samantha's POV I glanced over to them once more before returning my attention to my drink as an unknown feeling surfaced in me and I quickly dismissed no- "Who you keep looking at?" Ackeem asked forcing my gaze to land on him. "Nobody," I replied feeling Tameka's eyes piercing into me but I ignored them lifting my drink taking a well-deserved sip. "You tired from work or something?" He asked and I chuckled shaking my head, silently saying no. "You sure?" he asked once more. "Yeah, I'm sure, why?" "You just seem out of it tonight,"

THREE DAYS LATER Mesi's POV The door opened slowly to reveal her and I couldn't help the smile that drowned my features as our eyes met. "Are you okay?" she asked immediately as I appreciated her locs that fell shamelessly around her complimenting her beautiful chocolate skin. "Yeah, I just got back and I wanted to see you," "You wanted to see me?" she asked frowning, her question begging me to confirm my statement. "Yes, why is that so surprising?" "It's not, It's just that I'm with sam right now,"

ONE WEEK LATER Samantha's POV Sweat ran down my skin leaving my black shorts bra damp, my hand continuing its up and down movement as I secured the nail into the board, my usually corn-rowed hair now released into a messy afro that stood with the intentions of defying gravity. I took a step back admiring the gazebo that would hopefully be finished by tomorrow before directing my gaze to my paint-covered hands, which were a product of my work on the fence and newly fixed gate. "Samantha," I heard Ms Tammy call out and I moved to the right gazing at her approaching figure. "Yes, aunty," I answered placing the hammer down.

Destiny's POV A knock sounded on the door, the echoing noise pulling a sigh from as I forced myself off the couch ignoring the voice that was currently begging me to pretend as if I wasn't home. I began walking towards the source, wishing I had gone with Aliyah to the club since there was nothing for me to do here but drown in unwanted thoughts. All of which held two common factors that seemingly held the power to alter my mood whether I allowed them to or not. I moved closer looking through the peephole a frown sitting on my face as I pulled open the door to see them both standing there. "Hey," I greeted softly trying to push away the slight anger that had built over the couple of days that had passed.

Samantha's POV I walked over to the truck placing the box inside before releasing a small sigh, wishing time would increase its snail-like pace since it was getting harder for me to convince myself why working double shifts was necessary. "Sam," Joel called out and I moved from behind the vehicle to see him approaching me with my phone in hand. "Got a call for you," he voiced standing before me. "Thanks man," I replied taking it from his grasp before looking down to see Mesi's name displayed across the screen. "Hey, what's up?" I asked the second I answered the call, silently hoping the chatter I was surrounded by because of the numerous conversations taki

Mesi's POV She sat there looking at me apparently lost in her thoughts and I could tell that her lack of response was making Destiny anxious, the realization throwing words towards my revealing lips. "You don't have to feel pressured to feel the same way," I announced even though I knew the reality of how she felt about us both, which- "I, actually do feel the same way, I have feelings for you both but I just thought it was weird or-" "No, it's not, it's normal," I announced, cutting her statement short. "Normal," she repeated sighing and I smiled finding her reaction somewhat cute, her exterior and her interior being complete opposites.

ONE WEEK LATER Mesi's POV My gaze fell to my watch as they continued to offer another useless pitch that only served as a time waster and multiplier for my already evident irritation. It was already 3 p.m which meant I had wasted 30 minutes listening to a speech that would in no way bring in any kind of profit. A knock sounded on the door and I directed my gaze towards it as it opened to reveal my assistant who held a questioning gaze, and I nodded wordlessly telling her to go ahead. "Ms Bryant, there is a Ms johnson on the phone for you," "I'll take it," I announced outstretching my hand and she gifted the device to me allowing me to pla

Destiny's POV We continued to walk towards her car, the sounds of our laughter dancing happily around us as the cool night breeze caressed my skin. My exhaustion continued to linger throughout my body as I looked back for Sam only to realize she was still busy collecting my to-go order from the restaurant. "How was your free trial?" I asked Mesi softly as we arrived at her car and she released a small smile turning to face me. "It was good," she replied nodding slightly as she leaned against her car, her beautiful curls outlining her amazing facial features. "Just good?" I asked and she bit her bottom lip for a split second her gaze meeting and holding mine captive. The seductive and compelling nature she held making it hard for me to even create thoughts that held the intentions for me to dare to even look away. "I want to try this," she voiced softly and I couldn't help the smile that split my face as I moved clos
