When Charlie got home, the first thing she did was get into the bathroom and she took a shower.It was a long shower.Taking shower had always been therapeutic to her.Her bathroom had seen her on her worst days and also on some happy days. In here was where she had had all her major emotional breakdowns.It felt soothing to know that she could in in here with the shower running as she blocked the outside world out and know that everything would be ok. Today, her shower felt like a treat.She added eucalyptus to the shower head, made sure to wash her long luscious black hair. Using a skin sloughing doing, she carefully exfoliated and ended it all with an aromatic cleanser. When she stepped out of the shower, she felt relaxed and free like a heavy weight was suddenly lifted off her shoulders. Whenever she found herself in the shower, she saw it as her means of escape and would most times get things that weighed heavily on her off her chest. This week hadn’t been the easiest or most

When Johnny got home, he ran straight to tell Carla about Eunice and it was then he got the shocker. Eunice was a nun and they didn’t get married and had sworn the oath of celibacy so he couldn’t be with her. Johnny felt like he had been a fool trying to come on to a nun. Although it hurt, he knew the best thing to do was to stay away from Eunice. He tried to stay away from the church too but that didn’t last long at all.Eventually he went back to see her to talk things through.He even felt like he might have to make a confession to the father.The one woman he wanted and could not keep out of his head was God’s woman. He got to the church in time for the fellowship and immediately after, he found Eunice and told her that he had something really important to talk to her about. The had to find somewhere hidden and private so that his abomination would not be found out.Eunice took him to the yard at the back of the vicar’s building.It was set well away from the church building

Maddox Black took the familiar turn and knew that he was getting close to his club. He wondered why his mind was getting flooded with memories of the first woman he had ever loved- the only woman he had ever and most likely would ever love. She was his first love and everything.He smiled sadly“Young love.”He would never forget her.Maybe things would have been different if she had agreed to elope with him. By now they would be married with kids and be the most content man alive. He let his mind wander to the first time he’d suggested they elope.“Let’s run away, together.”Eunice sat up and looked at Johnny, bewildered.“What are you talking about?”Johnny took her hands in his and looked into her big blue beautiful eyes that reminded him of the ocean and he wanted to get lost in it.“I’m tired of playing hide and seek baby, I just want to be with you in a way that is natural away from all these.”Eunice shifted uneasily and moved away from his gaze.“I don't know Johnny, I reall

As Johnny pulled at the parking of Sin City, he wondered why he couldn’t stop thinking of Eunice and how tragic their love story was.This was one of the first real traumas he had experienced apart from when his mother had left him and somehow he couldn’t bring himself to get over it yet.“You should try therapy.” He thought aloud.“Maybe not, because then your therapist would need a therapist pronto.”He laughed.what would have been different if Eunice had agreed to his conditions?Would they really have worked out or would they be divorced like most couples at this point? He imagined himself with Eunice at a beach, two kids playing in the sand and him relaxing and being content staring at them.Johnny Maddox cringed a little.Maybe that wasn’t the life for him. He wondered if miss Carla had eventually forgotten about the incidence.“Why did I even tell her?” He thought.“Maybe I really wasn’t much of a man.” He thought to himself.Things rapidly got out of his control. He briefl
