Sapo From On My Block Novels & Stories

The women's stomachs always get bigger, faster. "Adonis." From the bathroom, Sofiya said. "Yeeeeeeees?" I called back. "Could you please come here?" She said it in a nice way. When I went to the bathroom, she was sitting on the counter and looking sad. "There's no toilet paper, and I have to go to the bathroom right now!" She spoke quietly. I laughed and quickly ran with toilet paper from Andy's floor to ours. Because I can move quickly, she only had to wait about a second.

felt almost sacred after everything we had endured. Sophie dropped a block from the tower she was building, scrunching her nose in frustration. “Oh no! It fell!” she cried. I reached over instantly, picking it up and handing it back with a grin. “Here, pumpkin. Let’s rebuild it together.” She beamed, her tiny hands clapping, and I lifted her slightly so she could place the block on top herself. Her laughter was pure and infectious, filling the room like sunlight.

shouted Sophia, "look sister I...I can, I can stand on water dammit!!!" "You're not kidding, are ya? you could do aura manipulation??....try standing with both of your feet on water....try it" said Suzan. Sophia carefully stepped on the river, "how is it possible how am I able to pull it off, it's making no sense at all" Sophia couldn't understand. Suzan stepped on the river too, and asked Sophia to hand over Zack, Sophia gave Zack to Suzan... *SPLASH* the moment Sophia let go of Zack, she fell into the river..."ehhhh co...cold, so I've to swim after all...but what happened just now I cannot understand....mind explaining to me??" Sophia asked submerged in water.

Hopelessly, I put the pen down and leaned my back on my chair, clasped my hands behind my head, and squeezed my tired eyes shut. “Hello, twinnie!” Saph’s voice jolted me to sit straight. Her dashing smile brightened my mood right away. “’sup, Lady Gaga?” I teased, grinning at her sudden glare. It annoyed her when I called her by that name, and she was aware I was mocking her. Saph loved every Lady Gaga’s song and memorized every lyric in all albums. It pissed me off because I couldn’t fully understand why she loved her music when there was some music worth listening for.

SOPHIA It was evening when I finally made it back to Floral’s place. My phone was bombarded with texts and calls from her, but I’d only replied with: I’ll explain it to you later. Now, as I stepped into the living room, I found her seated on the couch, her eyes glued to a soap opera on the TV. I hadn’t been expecting her to be home this early. She grabbed the remote off the coffee table, paused her drama, and patted the space beside her for me to sit. The shopping bag dangled from my arm. She narrowed her gaze at it, slowly flicking her eyes back upward.

He gave her space, didn't ask intrusive questions, didn't hover. But that was the problem. The apartment felt like a waiting room—two people occupying the same space, careful not to touch, not to get too close, not to make this arrangement feel like anything more than what it was. Temporary. On the fourth morning, Sophia's phone buzzed while she was brushing her teeth. She nearly dropped her toothbrush. An email. From Vertex Media. Her heart hammered as she wiped her mouth and opened it, her hands trembling. Dear Ms. Reyes,

And the hunter was still out there. ༺❀༻ Later that evening, Sophia’s roommates arrived at Harper Memorial. They didn’t come with flowers. They came with chaos (as always). Mira burst through the door first, arms full of junk food, a giant “Get Well Soon” balloon tied to her wrist, wearing sunglasses indoors. “We come bearing snacks, chaos, and Zara’s award-winning karaoke playlist.” Zara, right behind her, shoved her. “It’s not award-winning!”

SOPHIA Dread settled in my stomach as I looked away from him, the moans blasting on all speakers of the car. The pitch of the moans became higher and higher, and with a scream of pleasure, Sable came. “Yes, Daddy. Fuck me!” My jaw tightened. “Can you turn that off?” “I'm fucking trying, Sophia. I don't want to listen to this anymore than you already have.” Cassian said, fiddling with the car stereo.

Sophia I’m surprised to have received a call from the very talented ballerina Jade Reyes earlier. It turns out that Jade Reyes is the one dating Micah’s friend. Jade is an incredible dancer. Sage, Maleah, and I saw her perform at a Gala in Manhattan several months ago. Imagine their excitement when they found out that Jade called. We ended up making plans to meet at a Karaoke bar that night. I figure since Micah was going to be out all night, I’d enjoy some time with new and old friends.

*** In the morning, Sapphire stretched like a lazy cat to pick up her phone. "Hello..." Her tired voice muttered. "What did Jade say? " Zoey asked, arranging some old clothes on the models, in her boutique. "Huh? What are you talking about?" Same meowed. "Wait, did you two sleep together? Don't tell me that you guys had sex!" Zoey raised her voice over the phone. "What?" Sapphire lazily pulled herself out of bed. "Oh, shut it! Bye..." She cuts the call and fell back to sleep.
