2021-11-06 00:31:30Kane and Stephanie were still sitting on the window pavement. His phone was buzzing.
He answered, "Hello, who's on the line?"
"Hello Kane, it's me Simone," she said. Kane looked at Stephanie but she was smiling softly at him. She was sitting close enough to hear both of their conversations.
"Simone Solomon?" Kane asked, looking astonished.
"Yes. I know you're wondering how I got your number," Simone said, pausing for his response.
"Well, it's my business line, I mean you could literally just get it off my company's website. But hey I never told you what job I worked, so yeah I'm wondering."
"I'm not contacting you for business Mr Kane. Far from it," Simone said, pausing for three seconds. "Where are you now? I'm at the B and B. Could you make it there? I really want to see you please."
"Well I'm really busy," Kane said. Stephanie ga

The Joker Grand hotel was legally owned by the Solomon's. Tonight its beautiful event hall was used as the venue for the book launch of Try Again. Try Again was written by New York bestselling author Erik Wilson. He had written three successful books on reincarnation stories and this was the fourth. It never got boring.Journalists, reporters, sponsors, and other famous writers gathered here. Stephanie and Tiffany were dressed in long embroidered gowns that made them look like princesses. They strided through the long red carpeted floor moving towards Peter Brooklyn and his friend. They both had their backs against the ladies and were talking and laughing at the same time. Peter had gotten them their invites.As they closed in on Peter, they saw who he had been talking animatedly with from a distance. It was none other than Erik Wilson the author. Erik was an average human with a clean shaven head and light brown eyes. He wore a transp

Erik had gone ahead and talked briefly about the characters and plots contained in his book. Then he got up and said, "I have a demonstration to make and I'd like to invite my friend Peter Brooklyn who's an astrologist and mystics to join me up on stage." "What's this about?" Tiffany asked Peter who was already getting up. "I don't know what Erik wants from me," Peter said corkily. "But it's gotta be very amazing going up on stage with the star of the night." Simone cleared her throat which made Stephanie and Tiffany turn their attention to her. Simone then went on to say, "Hello ladies this must feel awkward but believe me it's nothing. We picked this seat because we know you guys and it'll probably be the last time we will be seeing each other in a while. Tiffany you can stop scowling now." "I just don't get you Simone," Tiffany said. "Why are you stalking someone else's fiance?"

The book launch had come to an end with the demonstration. Erik and Peter were still up on stage. They could be seen attending to a line of people. Stephanie was walking back to the table with Simon."Hey that was really weird," Simon said."Yeah I am not sure how I feel after that," Stephanie said, pausing in her tracks. "I mean I was so sure I'd fail at least once!""You bet!" Simon said, "I thought it was a bluff but now I'm starting to feel otherwise."Stephanie continued walking and she said, "Anyways, I think it's a trick. I watch a lot of magic shows. We should inspect those pearls properly. Maybe there's a way it changes its colors."They arrived at their table. Simone and Tiffany looked like Tom and Jerry forced to be in the same space. Something in Simon's memory made him think Tiffany would have been the kind of girl he should like. However, his emoti

Stephanie had a feeling of a growing confusion. On one hand, she was tired of leading Kane on, but on the other, she also knew she didn't know much about Simon to pick him over Kane. She just felt drawn to him from the day she first saw him at the B's. Kane had been chill after she had slapped him the other day, which was totally impulsive. She hadn't meant to do that, but why would he lash out like that? There was something she hated about it when men acted without thinking or displaying signs of violence.The day had arrived when she was going to travel to California. Kane would be coming to her apartment any minute now to take her to the airport. Tiffany had gone to Hawaii with Peter. She appreciated the time alone and she reflected on her feelings. On one hand she really liked Kane but on the other she felt she was keeping him as an option. She was scared to lose him even though she didn't want him. It made her feel terrible.

Kane felt a wave of nuesa hit him and he threw up in the kitchen sink. He was feeling a little sickly right after the trip to California. He had mentioned that to Stephanie but he didn't expect it to get so serious. Stephanie stood behind his large frame as he flushed the vomit with water from the tap. He rinsed his mouth and washed his face. Stephanie rubbed his back gently.He was shivering when she assisted him down to the couch. She went to fetch a blanket from his room. He had given her the direction. She inspected the boyish room. It had posters of different buildings. There were several textbooks on the table and a framed picture faced down. She lifted the frame and saw the two brothers, Kane and Shane. Kane stood on Shane's left, he had his arm placed over Shane's shoulder and his head was tilted towards Shane.St

Can life get any more awkward? Kane would've said had he not still been in bed. He felt himself on his bed, but what had happened to bring him here the previous night? The previous night! Stephanie had gently rocked him to sleep. He remembered her waking him up to come with her into the bedroom. She must've showered after that because he heard the sound of water splashing in his sleep. Then he smelt the sweet smelling fragrance of her perfume.Kane felt his hand curl over another human body. It was soft and feminine. He felt his hip against hers. Her lovely body curved about his. He felt a rush of excitement as the realization hit him. He hadn't slept in bed alone last night. She rolled over to face him. He let his hands remain curled over her body. Stephanie smiled at him. It was such a beautiful way to say good morning. She used her thumb to graze his bottom lips."Good morning," she said to him. Her voice was filled with affec

Simone hadn't known about Kane's brother. She felt guilty for not taking time to understand Stephanie. She hugged Stephanie from the back. The hug had startled Stephanie at first but she felt her body relax. Simone's gesture was just the right one. "Sorry," Simone said slowly releasing Stephanie from the hug. "However, this means nothing. I'll still fight you tooth and nail over Kane because I really love him. It pisses me to know you're not sure about your feelings for him but I understand better now." "Yeah," Stephanie whispered softly. "So where is your brother?" "Simon is a sleepyhead, he doesn't get up till it's mid-day unless he has an appointment," Simone said. "Would you do me a favor?" "It depends on what you are asking," Stephanie said. "Let's organize dinner together tonight and invite all our neighbors. We should find more fun ways to spend this

Simon was convinced that he was having a hard time adjusting to his new life. His memory told him that he was once gingerly and more open than he was at the moment. He decided to deal with his lackadaisical behavior whether it was a mental cause or an emotional one. He didn't know that he could fall in love with a girl and not be able to keep his cool around her. He was playing a video game on his tablet as he was laid down in bed.Upon hearing the doorbell ring he tossed the tab aside. He rushed to the mirror and to check out himself. He smoothened his hair. He was dressed up for the dinner although that was not going to happen right now. First, Stephanie had to drop by two hours earlier to help Simone with dinner preparation. He knew she was the one who rang the bell.He took a deep breath in and out and pulled back his bedroom door, opening it. He was heading to the living room."Mehn you're early, b

Pearls of love Chapter 39: Night 6 (Self Love)
Simon wanted to visit the Bed and Breakfast restaurant one last time before he departed for California. Unlike the other times he had come down to the diner in hopes of seeking his one true love, tonight was solely about ordering his favorite hamburger and glass of the divine milkshake. He was perched independently in a booth and was munching on one delicious hamburger which he held with both of his hands when his cell phone suddenly gave a sharp piercing ring. He glanced at the caller, placed the burger down, and answered the call by sliding up a green icon. "What's up, sis?" Simon said. "Not much," Simone replied. "What's up? Are you still coming to California tomorrow?""Well, yeah," Simon said, sipping from his milkshake. "Oh, I was thinking you'd spend like another extra day or something," Simone said, twirling her hair with her finger while she eased more into Kane's body. "Ah-ha! Something whispers to me that you're up to no good. Dare I think that you're not alone." Simon
Pearls of love Chapter 38: Day 6 (The scary revelation)
The sixth day of summer was a Sunday. After a night of sinful pleasure, Kane and Simone woke up to the tolling of the church bell on the beach."Gosh, I hate that sound!" Kane said, groaning. "I hated it as a kid, and I still hate it now.""Good morning, baby," Simone said, leaning into him for a quick kiss. "I thought the Griffin's owned everything on the beach back then?""We did.""So why did your parents decide to put a church on the beach? Are they religious?" Kane arranged his pillows and propped his back comfortably on them as he sat up. "Not really; the church wasn't always here until a series of deaths began occurring on this beach. They built the church to ward off any evil presence."Stephanie gave him a skeptical look. "Evil presence? Deaths?" Kane nodded, and she laughed. "Well, did the number of deaths reduce after the church-" "No, people still died," said Kane, cutting in. "That's goddamn awful. I assume the dying people were those who came to visit the beach?""
Pearls of love Chapter 37: Night 5 (Countdown)
Being in love was supposed to feel beautiful, Simon thought, so how come he felt like a piece of trash? He was at a bar, nestling a beer bottle in his mouth. He promised himself to have just one bottle and go home. He needed to clear his head; that was all. As he drank his beer, different thoughts ran through his mind, and one of them included the fact that he would never go back to being the man he used to be again. Sure enough, his body and intellect were still intact, but his soul was long gone. The fact that he could remember what it was like to be Simon and yet knew that he was not was a bit much for him to handle at times. Sometimes, he wished he could tell anyone, especially Simone, how he felt being reincarnated. The old Simon wouldn't have been a sucker for love. He felt like a robot whose software was corrupted to some degree. "Hey, Shane," he said to no one in particular. "Yes, what is it?" he heard in his mind. It felt awesome at times, talking to himself and listening

Simon was driving through the lit city of New York. He drove through the Empire State building, one of the tallest buildings in New York. He had been there several times at times like this, during the nighttime, to get a fascinating view of the city from above. He was browsing through his phone to locate the post notifications he had earlier received. He found Thelma's post and contained in the post was an address he was looking for.He dialed Thelma's number but it rang out. He tried it a second time and after a little while she answered the call."Hello, who is this?" Thelma said, her voice sounding warm."Hello, it's Simon Solomon," he said."Oh!" she gasped at the sound of his name. "My apologies Mr Simon I was not expecting any more surprises tonight.""No, it's fine. Actually, I do have one last surprise. I saw the address to your house on your

Later that evening, Simon got a call from Annie asking him to accompany her to a musical concert. New York city has all the biggest names in music rolling into town and with the multiple arenas in and around the city, it was easy to spot a great gig every night of the week!Simon had considered not going but his mother said there was no chance she would let him miss a perfect opportunity to get his closed walking bag of sad self loosened up by any means. He wore a nice plain white simple tee-shirt on top of olive green shorts.It was starting at eight PM and it was going to be a rock performance from one of the best rockstars in the world. Simon met Annie at the entrance to the arena where their tickets were checked and they were permitted into the building."I thought you were not going to come," Annie said as they made their way."I told you I'm open for friendship.

Pearls of love Chapter 34: Day 5
The day was hot as hell and the air she breathed in was dry. Stephanie's skin felt as dry as a bone in spite of the moisturizer for dry skin cream she had applied earlier on. She sipped chilled water from a plastic bottle and replaced it in the bottle holder compartment of her car. Tiny droplets of water trickled down the bottle. She took a look in the rearview mirror and smacked her lips. She reached for her cosmetics purse in her handbag and fetched her lips gloss from it before reapplying it for the third time."Come on, come on!" she said aloud to herself, honking. The car in front of her was moving slowly right after the lights turned green at the traffic spot.She was in such a big hurry because she did not want the ice cream she had gotten for herself and Thelma to melt before she got to work. And frankly because this was Thelma's first request ever, she felt she shouldn't mess up with giving her a proper treat. The ice cream wa

"What if I told you something personal about Shane," Simon whispered, as he entered into the vast living room of Stephanie's pulch apartment. "An information that is not privy to anyone else but you, would you believe that I am your ghost boyfriend?""Okay go ahead," said Stephanie, taking a seat. She took one look at the golf club in her hand and decided to put it down but still not out of reach.Simon sat across from her and said, "Very well then. The first day we met on the beach was on the fifth of July and we shared our first kiss on the thirty-first day of that same month!"Stephanie's eyes widened in surprise and she said, "Well, that's just spooky. So tell me how did you get the information? Fine. I'm impressed by how much your creative genius is bu

They sat facing each other and they were engaged in a game of never ever have I. There was a half drunk bottle of wine sitting properly on the floor. They looked happy and neither of them seemed to care about any other thing at the moment. The final ray of the sunset cut across a tall tree and lit up the spot where the bottle had been sitting.“Okay! It is my turn!” Kane said. He sounded a little bit tipsy. “You are cheating somehow. How come you’ve done everything I haven’t done?”“I have had lots of experiences,” Simon replied. She was the one who suggested the game. She suggested a game of truth or dare but Kane said he hated the game, and then she brought up this one.“Fine, genius, never ever have I masturbated,” Kane said, with a wry smile.“Well,” Simone drew out the word in an attempt to make things suspenseful. &ld
Pearls of love Chapter 31: Night (Trick or Treat)
There were going to be a lot of fun moments that Simon and his buddy were going to have from the moment he became in sync with his soul. He talked to himself more and he heard replies from within him. He did a lot of interaction with himself about Stephanie, what his inhabitant past life looked like, and of course the relationship between his inhabitant and Kane. He dropped the feeling of weirdness and just accepted that he would never be the same person he used to be. He was in fact considerably better than his former self now.Grateful for the information he had gotten courtesy of a source unknown to everyone else but him, he decided to put one of such information to use.Shane had told him to let him take over for a few hours. His buddy told him that Stephanie liked it when guys were creative and acted with a sense of humor. He decided that he would give it a shot. Honestly, Halloween was still a month and a few days from now, but Simon bought a
