"Henry, I... I don't know what to say," Kim finally managed to whisper, her voice barely audible above the gentle rustle of the evening breeze.

As she fell deeper into slumber, her dreams began to take on a life of their own. In a dimly lit room, stood Henry before a light skinned classy girl, his eyes burning with desire.

The room seemed to fade away as they lost themselves in each other, their bodies moving in perfect harmony.Just as the dream was getting more intense, Kim's phone rang, jolting her awake from her steamy reverie. She groaned in frustration, reluctantly reaching for her phone."W
