Irrational to Rational

last update Last Updated: 2024-07-12 00:21:51
Tears from the memory of her dreams ran down her cheeks as she recalled them. Tippa, deep down inside, knew she should have gotten some therapy. The loss she experienced was too significant for anyone to handle and recover from so quickly, all alone.

She took a leisurely shower, knowing it would take her cousin Julia more than half an hour to drive from her family’s house to her modest, one-bedroom apartment complex. Patting herself dry, Tippa took an excessive amount of time to lotion her body with a scented creamy lotion. She hadn’t moisturized her skin in weeks.

Tippa brushed her hair and secured it at the crown of her head with several large bobby pins. Peering into the mirror over the bathroom sink, she noted that some of the swelling around her eyes had gone down. Most people would not notice the slight puffiness under her large eyes, but those people did not include Julia. There were very few things she could conceal from Julia Wilson.

She couldn’t talk openly about her feel

    Tippa knew the way she was raised and her family background, but it was a question she had never considered. She wondered how this was a topic for conversation anyway. Nevertheless, the ladies pressed on with the questions, waiting for her response."Yes, you. Would you date a man that came from wealth?" The woman asked pointedly."Hmm. to answer that, I’m thinking about how I rarely change my hairstyle. "Tippa snickered, hoping that would be enough of an answer.“And…” The lady stated with all eyes on Tippa. "I'm not that big on change. Besides, I would have to get to know him first, and if getting to know him, we would fall in love. He’s a decent guy with morals of right and wrong who would stand up for me. I would date him if he were born into a wealthy family.” She replied reluctantly. "Even if his family hates you! And I couldn’t stand your guts! Got you fired! And offered you money to get away from their son!" The woman kept on with her persistent, harsh questioning, stating

  • Hearts Unbroken   Unexpected Potential

    Tippa could feel the anticipation of arriving at her new house. She became overwhelmed as Uncle Yazzy drove up this incline and down this winding road. After about a half mile, they followed the moving truck, and at the end of the winding road, there sat the Victorian Gem. The moving truck, as did her uncle’s SUV with her little car attached to it, finally stopped.Her uncle pulled to the house and into the driveway and said, “We've made it, Tippa! Here’s your new home!”Tippa stepped out of the truck. The cool night air greeted her. It was crisp, clear, and fresh, just as the Real Estate agent described it would be this time of year. She laid her eyes on the two-story sage-colored house with a basement. It's all trimmed in white, with all its Victorian carvings giving it so much character! Along with a wrap-around porch, it looks like something out of the movies. It was simply lovely!Her uncle Yazzy asked. “Do you have the key? I want to go in first to make sure everything is safe b

  • Hearts Unbroken   A Crisis At The Inn

    It's been almost a month since she moved to the beautiful state of Vermont. Tippa began sleeping later; some evenings, she lounged in her pajamas when she got home. The Valley she stays in is the prettiest. Tippa lives in a town called Mountain Lake Valley. Tippa has filled each day with settling into her new place. Once she finally felt like she was getting somewhere, her funds were slimmer and thinner by the day. This brought a halt to all her decorating plans for her new home. So, she woke up here in this lovely environment with nothing to do. The weeks continue to roll by as she notices a change within herself now that she’s not as busy. She had already been to town to shop, but now she could spend time sightseeing in other parts of town."Oh, I almost forgot they have nice outdoor shopping centers and a great mall at the end of town. They are both really nice. I can at least go window shopping and make a note of future purchases I would like to make."But Tippa wished she had som

  • Hearts Unbroken   From Bad To Worse.

    Tippa could feel the cool air hit her skin as her mind began floating in and out of consciousness. It felt like her mind was separating from her body. The next thing she recalled was seeing a tunnel and a bright light at the end of it.She muttered breathlessly. “No, no, no…don’t look at the light,” she said as her eyes closed on their own accord.Then something or someone lifted her into their arms from the cold floor away from the light. She wasn’t ready to die. Tippa had dreamt so much these past months that she couldn’t tell reality from her dreams at this moment. She had no idea how long she had been lying on the floor. But someone strong and masculine took and lifted her from the cold floor. Tippa knew she had to be delirious because the last thing she remembers is being home alone. So this couldn’t be happening. It had to be her mind playing tricks on her, or maybe, just maybe, a higher power heard her pleas and an angel was coming to take her away. Tippa wanted to protest tha

    “Yes, mother, we are done! I’ve moved out!” Ross replies.“Don’t tell me you moved in with that girl!” “No! She’s a respectable young lady, and if I wanted to stay with her, she would let me. But I want to honor her by living with her as her husband and her as my wife! So, I moved into the doctor's apartments at the hospital.”"I'm sorry, Ross! Don’t do this; don’t leave the only home you’ve ever known.”Ross continues to ignore his mother's pleas. Elise became angry!“No, I'm not sorry for interrupting this travesty of a relationship! I couldn't just sit back and let this happen. It's wrong! And she’s wrong for you! Listen to me, son! You are about to ruin your life by marrying someone of her caliber!” She said, shouting through the phone.“Are you rebelling against me because I sent you to live with your grandparents when you were a toddler? I had to do that, son. Mentally, I wasn’t strong enough to raise you.”“The question is, mother, was I a toddler? No, you left me because you

    They keep talking about red tape! We have to take matters into our own hands, son!"What do you mean, you’ve asked the government officials for money or reimbursement of funds?" Ross inquired."Yes, money they owe us! This hospital has been operating on our funds. The overhead of having everybody staff here around the clock has made the overtime pay go through the roof! We need help paying everyone's salaries, keeping this place functioning, and buying supplies and medical equipment. This is a state of emergency! But they are dragging their feet! So we will have to start cutting back as winter approaches." "Cut back on what? We are one of the richest hospitals in the nation! It's not the time for cutbacks. Father, we shouldn't be concentrating on saving the hospital's money. We should be focusing on saving lives." "One day, son, you will be in charge of this hospital, and since you are this hospital's leading doctor, no others will follow your lead. For the financial well-being of th

    Ross Pov Continues:I got no answer, so I cautiously stepped through the front door and waited for a response. I got none. Something told me to leave. This could be dangerous. But my hunch told me to stay and check the place out. My flashlight revealed that the house was partially void of furnishings and looked pretty old. My doctor's intuition compelled me to search the house further, thinking the owners might be up in age and possibly very sick or immobilized due to their age.I thought to myself. No one leaves their door unlocked these days. I checked and opened the first door I saw on the first floor. It was a bathroom, and I entered a room resembling a library. I could hear some of the floorboards squeaking under my feet. I carefully went down the long hallway that led me to the dining room. I continued to use my cell phone flashlight throughout my search in the house. Nothing looked out of the ordinary except the house, which was ice cold, dark, and very old. I pushed open anoth

    Ross POV Thus, I had to shift my mind to the necessity of saving Tippa; I immediately went into doctor mode. Her hair smelled fresh as I delicately lifted her head from the cold floor. A hint of a sweet perfume accosted my nose when I removed the blanket that covered her head and body. I noticed bruises on her upper torso, but they didn't appear too serious. My eyes roamed over her long but thin, shapely frame as she lay there. I begin to wipe her body ever so gently. "Oh my, Tip, how did this happen to you."My mind raced, my heartbeat erratically, and my eyes grazed over her lovely form. I have seen many female bodies, but none ever affected me this way. She was slim but toned, with smooth, even skin, a tiny waistline, and sizable hips for her weight and frame. I take a deep cleaning solution that kills most germs but is not harmful to the skin. I wiped away the sweat from her body gently but quickly. I lifted her head again, letting her damp face rest against my chest. I wiped a

    Since the beginning of the pandemic, it was reported today on the news as Ross, Tippa, and Elise attentively observed the newscaster's words.

Visits will also resume at nursing homes. Broadway is back! The first Broadway musical will reopen. Everyone got emotional over the good news they heard.

    Elise looks at them and then walks into the dining room, shaking her head as she sits at the table. Tippa whispers. “How am I doing?” she asks Ross.“You are doing great, but don’t let her push you. She’s bossy, but you are the boss of this house. You got that?” “Yes, bossman, I got it. I’ll kill her with kindness.”“If that doesn’t work, put her in her place.”“So, how was the drive here?”"What did you ask?" Ross chuckles. "I asked, how was your drive to Vermont?" ****"Oh, I didn't drive myself here. I had my driver bring me to Vermont. So the trip was good. ""Mom, why didn't you fly instead of making your driver come this far only to have to turn right back around?"Well, um...that’s interesting, the way you think. Isn't that what I'm paying him to do?" "You are paying him to work, not slave for you, mother. You don't have to take advantage of your employees that way.""Okay, dinner is served," Tippa calls out from the kitchen as she brings an Elise plate to the table."List

    "Dear, when will you utter some words or say something?" she asked, looking at him nervously."I will say something. Can you be patient, baby? I told you I’m not much of a prayer and want to get it right. Now, let's bow our heads and give me your hand. Dear almighty one, the supreme creator and maker of life. The source of life. You have all the power in the heavens and on the earth. You know how much Tippa and I want to start a family.We love each other with all our hearts and want to give this love to our offspring, progeny. But if it's not time, give us the strength to accept that and continue to try for happiness, but most of all, don't let us lose the love and joy we have for one another. Amen." His prayer moved Tippa so much that she kissed him in the mouth. "That was touching, sweetie. You need to pray for our family more often. I’m sure God heard that prayer." "Thanks, I was nervous. My grandmother taught me to pray. She always used to tell me to talk to God from the heart

    Ross found the strength to stand up first, stretching his long body. Tippa ran approving eyes over his thighs, Capital C's backside, powerful shoulders, and chest. It moved her to walk up behind him and take him in her arms around his waist. "I want you to know I love you with all my heart, soul, mind, and body." Ross turned, brushing his lips over the edge of her soft cheek and whispering in her ear, "You are my everything, and I will never forget all the wonderful memories we are making together." The next morning, everyone smiled brightly as the sun greeted them. They packed while some hummed and others whistled, expressing joy about this vacation. Everyone exits their bungalows with their luggage at the same time. The family smiled, chatting away as they walked down the boardwalk to the Pleasure Paradise resort to check out. They laughed and talked about all the fun things they experienced. Ricky talks about zipping into the mountains Julia excitedly talks about all the water

For their honeymoon, though unusual, they took a trip to Hawaii with Tippa’s family, the Wilsons. They had worked hard in their business, and now they needed time away. They needed a moment to listen with their eyes closed to enjoy the sound and feel the morning sea breeze. All the family had their own private bungalows. Ross and Tippa lay cuddled, nestled, snuggled in one another's arms, surrounded by beauty and all these beautiful exotic flowers.

    The house and his clothes were always clean, and she fed him the most delicious meals. Despite all of that work, she still looked so pretty. Ross sat there wondering what he could do to show her how he felt about her besides making love to her senselessly. She always took a personal interest in how his day was going.They always had good conversations about a variety of things together throughout the day when he finished his very lovely lunch when he came home at noon.Ross says, "Tippa, sweetie." She is standing by the kitchen sink, about to prepare dinner next. She turns, "Yes, Ross.""I'm about to head to town. Is there anything you need?"Tippa stopped and thought for a brief minute. "No, I don't think so.""Okay, I'll be back shortly.""Alright, drive safely."While in town, he wanted to buy Tippa something special. He wanted to get his special girl a gift. Ross thought.

    Ross felt love swell in his heart and wanted to express how much he loved this woman. Holding, caressing, he rocked his pelvis against her core. His hand cradled her head as he kissed her passionately. He pinned her arms above her head and continued to move slowly and carefully as he made love to her. Tippa reached down for him and brought him up for another kiss. She was addicted to his kisses. Her fingers dug into the taut muscles on his back and cupped his firm butt, and pulled him deeper into her, a move that made Ross see stars. "Oh my, my, my." He whispered. "You almost finished me off with that maneuver. She giggled softly, and he melted on the inside. He loved the way they laughed even now as they made love. "You're my sexy slave now." Tippa teased. "I can live with that, but can you do me a favor?" He picked up the pace but kept a tight rein on the desire pounding through him."Yes, tell me what you want." she moaned and arched into him."No blouses when at home."She gig

I had to sort things out between me and Ross first. I didn’t expect this to happen. He didn’t even know where I lived or that I was sick. He just appeared out of nowhere like an angel the night I almost died from the virus.

    Now that the two of them were finally here to meet Tippa's beloved family today. Ross sat in the car wondering how was it going. He knew her uncle was going to be the most difficult when he heard the news that she was married and especially to him. Ross thought. "I might be viewed as an unreliable man who stood up their most precious nieces at the altar." No matter how confident Ross appeared to be. He worried about how Tippa's family would view him and if they would accept his sincere apology. They have seen Tippa's tears fall because of being treated unjustly by his family and, in their minds, him.Ross felt like once he explained everything and how it occurred on their wedding day, they would understand.
