Raven, Tim. Ray and I

"I'm doing this for Ray. Because we once shared something and I still feel for him, even if he doesn't." Raven repeated the exact same words for the twelfth time that day. I knew for certain it was the twelfth time because I was counting and constantly replied with , "doing what exactly?"Looking at me thoughtfully for a while, she began "Ray broke my heart and got himself into something messy before moving to Florida. You're his girlfriend so I'm sure he must have told you about the not too good relationship he has with his father?" She waited for an answer but when it seemed like non was forthcoming from me, continued. "He always complained everyday about his father and when he did, I felt the hate in his words. He told me he wanted to be rid of the man, to have nothing to do with him, believe me, each and every of those night, had Ray crying in my arms, and I desperately sought out ways to help him." I nodded, trying to comprehend where this story was going. Hope she wasn't trying

OUR SHIP CAN'T SAIL

"Babe. " He smiled weakly, "That's even legal?""Cut the chase, Ray." I retorted, "What's going on. You're going to tell me or keep hiding it?""I thought you wasn't interested about me. What you doing here anyways?" He asked with a raised eyebrow."A good samaritan though it wise to show me around New york." I smiled, "I didn't want to go at first, but she pressed me on."He was confused and let it show. "Even though I'm confused, I'm going to ask who the birdie is. Like, you're already making friends? That's cool Emmy." He smiled genuinely."Nice of you to notice." I smiled. "You wouldn't believe the stuffs she told me.""Ohhh?" He raised a brow. His interest piqued. "Let's sit somewhere, so we can talk?" He looked apprehensive, like he was dreading my answer."Sure, we should. Thank God you suggested, it. These flats are getting uncomfortable already." I said and almost added, "as well as the awkward interlude of silence between us." But skipped.The silence was unbearable, like t

SAILING SHIP

I learnt the hard way that hearing the truth is something we aren't prepared for. Now that I think of it, I wonder why I kept on pressurizing him to be open with me if it was something I wasn't going to be able to face? If it was something I was going to run off after hearing like I did? The truth about one's past, hits us in so many ways, and Ray's wasn't an exception.Probably, he was right about keeping his past away from me. He was probably downcasted after watching me run away like that. I myself was embarrassed, the way I acted was childish,and even when i wanted to blame myself.Ray really had a toxic childhood. It was so bad, I wanted to tell him to shut up but couldn't, I knew it was some kind of help to him, because he was sure to feel light-headed afterwards. When he told me how he'd met Raven and the whole shit with Tim, I couldn't resist hugging him. It wasn't a rehearsed speech, it was exactly like Raven had said it. He was everything but weak wasn't one of those things

IT'S NEVER GONNA BE THE SAME

"Wait girl." Foluke examined my fingers for the fourth time to make sure it was real. "This cost some. Ray gave you a promise ring? Dang, I knew that guy was serious about you.""You can say that again." Meredith nodded. "That guy is so out of this world. I still can't fathom how fast all this happened!"I couldn't too. It seemed like we just met yesterday and today this? Everyday before we came back to Florida, I constantly checked to make sure the ring was real. "Tell us everything again, what what and what went down, and how the wedding was. I don't think I'll tire of hearing." Bisola asked, "We might learn a few things from you."I laughed and recounted my New york's experience and adventure to them that day for the second time. I was about talking to them about Ire when Mitchell walked by our table and stopped to say, "Well, if it ain't the losers.""Oh, certainly, I heard Alaine broke up with you?" Meredith mocked. "Isn't that painful? And you couldn't get down with Ray either

BEGINNING OF AN END

Truth.Satiation only comes when you're with the right person. Truth? Yeah. I'd fallen asleep in Ray's arms, tired and satiated after we'd done it for the third time last night.I stood in the kitchen wearing Ray's shirt and hung loosely on my thigh and relieving the moment. I shivered remembering how Ray woke me up this morning before he returned to continue with his sleep.That Moment is something that's etched on my mind. I don't think I'll ever forget.I turned on the coffee maker and grabbed my cup when it was ready. Turning, I jerked and spilled my coffee when I came in contact with a naked Ray. "Why are you naked?' I asked, blushing."I came to get you to bed." He replied, sleepily. "Morning babe." He kissed my cheeks. "You made coffee.""Yes. I can fix you a cup." I replied, still not looking at his face, "I just didn't want to disturb you seemed like you were having a beauty sleep."He grinned, sitting on the kitchen counter. "Sure, fix me a cup."The tension was unbearable ma

How do you withstand all that heat?

I recounted my experience with the girls, not leaving out a single detail." You're a woman now." Foluke cupped my cheek, sounding like I had achieved something precious. "He definitely got plans for you.""Yeah?" Meredith grinned. "I can't believe you finally did it, and imagine, the both of you twinning!! It's like a dream!"I rolled my eyes. " We're not twinning, Meredith." I replied. "Call it a coincidence, maybe. Ray personally handpicked these clothes from his closet.""You don't say!" Bisola grabbed my shoulders. "These are Ray's clothes? Damn girl! I heard he shops from top brands!""Well, there's only one way to dispell that rumour." Meredith said, leaning in and reaching for the label at the back of the tee, "Louis Vuitton?" She grinned. "He definitely comes from wealth."Foluke rolled her eyes. " Coming from a fashion model? Meredith, you practically land your hand on these clothes before they come to us. What you on about exactly?"We laughed out loudly. "Meredith has alwa

4 YEARS LATER

I stumbled out of my apartment in New Jersey, almost tripping on my sneakers. Heaven's help me. I was always late for the bus but not today. It was weekend and that meant spending it over at Ray's.I didn't stop running and tripping until I was inside the bus. Yeah! I mentally congratulated myself. I had a lot to gist Ray about when I got to New York City.I held until the railings of the rickety old bus that led to New York, as though my life depended on it. The gown I wore clung beautifully to my body. Ray would love it, I thought, congratulating myself. The distance from New Jersey to New York was just two miles, and I wondered why he wouldn't let me drive."If it isn't Emem?" I heard someone call my name and turned immediately to acquaint myself with whomever it was. You can imagine my shock when I realized it was Mitchell. Never in my life would I believe in Mitchell using the bus. "Well. Hello Mitchell." I replied, taking the empty sit beside her. "It's been what? Four , fi

Hello guys, I'm sure my reputation precedes me... but hey.... I'm much better in real life.A little arrogant with a touch of sassiness... lol... don't know if there's a word like that.

I'm sorry. you lots might not know her by that. it's her instagram handle) that's the writer telling the story, for keeping it longer than expected but she apologized and I'm still considering my reaction.The next note would be from Emmy, and I'm sure you'll love what she has to say...I'll miss you all...yeahhh....

letter from Emem.

Guys!!!it's been such a beautiful journey with you. Thinking right now how my journey would be if I didn't have you, I cringe .No one wants to spend eternity alone. Raynard is actually vexed that this took a little longer than planned, but it's nothing a little kiss can not solve. winks* He's that easy.Another thing... Ray's jealous over the fact that we're starting a new story.... With a new make hero , Walker. can you believe that?He thinks walker is going to be way hotter than him.. How absurd Is that. I know he likes to show off.. like, be the center of attention. That's my baby. but whatever, We just have two more chapters to go and we're done.The boy nextdoor was definitely a journey and I pray you find yours. He doesn't necessarily have to live nextdoor.I heard the girl in the next book, Steyn, is strong at heart. I heard she's beautiful too. Honestly, I feel so sad for her because unlike Ray, Walker is going to punish her!!.You see that too??But whatever.... she's a gi
