Spirals: Tattoo in my mind 36 Tongue-tied
My alarm goes off and I roll over and turn it off. This morning, I'm so happy to be awake unlike other mornings and I think it's because I slept a lot early last night. I take my bath quickly and head down to the kitchen. With a cup of coffee in one hand, I go through the papers again, just making sure my signature is on all the pages. Honestly I'm happy, this is my first day of my real work and I'm not getting all anxious about nothing. I put the leftover lasagna from yesterday in the microwave. Fuck all their meal plan and diet shit, right now my belly needs a full on. My phone buzzes with a message and my face lights up as I read the contents. ~ I'm sorry I can't call, I'm in the middle of a video conference. I hope you have a great first day at work today, I miss you, I've been thinking of you most of the time I was awake last night and seriously, I'm really reconsidering not going for that meeting this weekend. I'll call you as soon as I'm done with this. I love you Lee :-)"

I go over my makeup one last time and apply a lipstick before leaving the house. My week has just gone in a blur and I can't imagine I've been through a lot this week. I pull up in the parking lot of the club and the blaring music and smell of smoke and alcohol almost make me turn on the engine and head home. Bryne is being a sour face about me going to this club and I had to do a lot of explanation before he finally agreed, although I'm sure he wouldn't let me go if he were here. I step out of my car and scrutinize the whole environment thoroughly before going inside, as much as I don't want any form of attention to myself, I'm starting to feel my coming here was a bad idea but it's too late to back out now, I can't ditch the girls. I can feel a couple of eyes on me as I walk to where the girls are. I feel I'm being stripped with each gaze, I know I shouldn't have worn this dress! "She's here" Laura announces and hugs me "For a moment, I thought you wouldn't show up" "Well, you

I roll miserably on the bed, in a bid to ease the splitting headache I'm having. "Jesus!" Hangovers are so annoying. I drag myself off the bed, with a lot of effort, and I open my medicine cabinet and shuffle through for an aspirin. I take the pills and empty my bowels before leaving the bathroom. I scroll through my phone for any message or call."Shit" Twenty four calls from Bryne. I groan and pour some cereal and milk into a bowl. I call him back and it goes straight to voicemail. "Shit!" I have a fitness session with Derrick today. I hurriedly change into my gym clothes and I rush out to meet him. ~~~I try to catch my breath as I jog into my driveway. I'm so exhausted from that fitness session and it's even a miracle how I survived through it with the hangover I had. I really need to take a long soothing bath and buy my groceries, especially as my meal plan is so different. One really important thing I should do as soon as possible is to talk to Bryne for a long time.I bri

BryneI've literally been waiting the whole week for Friday to come and finally, it's Friday. I slide the key and open the door of Bailey's house. Home at last! Yes, she's my home, I see a lifetime with her.I open the fridge and scan through for any reasonable snack and drink. What! Only veggie snacks and no drink! She's really taking her modelling seriously. I sit on the kitchen table and gulp down the only palatable thing in her fridge, water. Is that a cookie? The same cookie I gave her last Saturday, lying untouched. I jump down and from the table and immediately, the door flings open and Bailey runs and jumps on me. She hooks her leg round my torso and my hand kneads her arse, something I've been wanting to do for a while.She snuggles my neck, kissing, nibbing, leaving gentle bites wherever she can and my whole body responds to her."I've missed you so much" She breathes into my neck."Really?" I place her gently on the kitchen table."I've missed doing this with you" She se

BaileyHe pulls up in my mom's driveway and the memories of this place comes sweeping in. I shiver and step out of the car. I steal a glance at Bryne and roll my eyes. I'm mad at him, and even more mad at myself for saying all that hurtful stuff.I take a very deep breath before pressing the doorbell."Just a minute" There's some shuffling at the other side of the door and the door knob turns."Mom" I'm speechless. All the rehearsal I made for this moment has flown out of my head. She looks at me and back at Bryne, studying him for a bit before returning her eyes to me.She looks beautiful, much more than she did some years ago and I can't believe I let her go through all of that alone.She hugs me tightly, I didn't expect this but I'm taking it. I hug her back. I've really missed her, I've missed this place so much. "I knew you'd come back" She sniffs."Jeez don't cry mom" She pulls away and cleans the tears from her cheek. "Come in" Stepping into this living room again is a stru

As I step into my dad's study room or safe haven, so he called it, I can't help but feel a need to leave this place as soon as I can but that will be hurtful, first to my mom and to the dead.A big box with my name boldly labelled on it is sitting on the table. I open the box and go through the content carefully. They're so many pictures and receipts and letters, I used to write my dad everyday after he got diagnosed of pulmonary embolism in my seventh grade. I wrote him a letter everyday throughout my seventh and eighth grade. I open the receipts, just because I'm curious of course. It's a payment to a 'parenting a teen and young adult' class. Wait a minute, my dad enrolled in a parenting class because of me? A tear falls from my eyes onto the receipt and I wipe it off. I was my dad's favorite, he was an elder brother to me but I didn't trust him enough that I hated him because I was raped. I sniff and rummage through the box and I see a couple of phone numbers and some other st

BRYNEShe pulls away after a while of sucking each other's face and she kisses my jaw.My hands are still fondling her arse, I can't let go of this voluptuous flesh yet. "I'm sorry" she breathes into my neck making me groan. If she continues at this pace, I won't need to go to church again. She slides her hand under my t-shirt and sucks on my neck. I don't know what is make her so horny this morning but I like it.I carry her up and keep her on the table before spreading her legs wide. My hand rubs her thigh as it moves under her dress.She moans into my shoulder as my fingers rub her opening through her underwear."Fuck!" I can feel her wetness on her underwear and this pleases my lower body the more.I push her underwear to the side and cup her wetness with two fingers, smearing it all over her thigh. "Bryne no" her voice betrays her and she moans as I insert my finger into her."Bryne this is my mom's kitchen, no" I pull out my finger from her, not completely and I rub her clit

BAILEY"Don't be an over jealous boyfriend Bryne" I gently poke his side and he rolls his eyes.My mom walks to us smiling. "Sorry for keeping you waiting, come on, let's go home" Bryne opens the door of the car for her and she smiles sweetly at this.Bryne gets into the car after making sure we're all inside and starts the engine. I like the way he's taking care of my mom, I really want to kiss him right now.After a short drive back home, the church isn't really far from the house, Bryne repeats his previous actions, getting the door for my mom.My mom thanks him and goes inside, leaving Bryne and I alone outside."Rhino?" I walk to where he's standing."Hmm?" He hooks his hand round my waist, pulling me roughly to himself making me gasp in the process."I don't want anyone touching you like that okay?" He stares hard into my eyes and a shiver runs down my spine."I like when you get so overprotective" I stare back at him, struggling not to blink.His other hand tugs the hair that f

"Hello mom" I say impatiently. My mom always has a way to interrupt us. There's shuffling at the the other side of the line "Hey B, uh can you guys come over for dinner at dad's place, sorry for the late info I totally forgot"No way. "Mom, it's not possible" Bailey hits my side lightly "You can't turn your mom down" she whispers"You're with Bailey?" My mom asks. "Yeah""Great! Please put the phone on speaker" I roll my eyes and put the phone on speaker. I know Bailey can never say no to my mom and my mom knows that too, that's why she wants to talk to Lee. I already made a great dinner for the two of us, but Bailey won't think about that, of course it's my darling mother. I roll my eyes again and Bailey hits my arm."Hey Bailey, I know it's already late but can you guys come over for dinner at my place? I would've done this later but my husband already booked my flight back to Georgia and it's tomorrow" my mom's persuasive voice sounds and I'm sure it has already convinced Baile

Bryne.I need her to understand that losing our baby wasn't her fault, I need us to go back to being us before the miscarriage. "Thanks Bryne, for every thing, for being my back bone, for being more than a boyfriend, for being so gentle with my heart" she maintains eye contact with me while stroking my face with her thumb."You don't need to thank me for taking care of you, you're my responsibility Lee" I kiss the inside of her palm. "let's go eat""Bryne I- okay, let's go eat" She steps away but I grab her hand and bring her closer. "What do you want Lee" I whisper over her ear and she claims my lips in a slow kiss. I want to go at her pace, I need to go at her pace even though all I want to do is to grab her and make her scream my name multiple times. She looked so sexy in the dress this morning and it took me all the strength I had, to stop myself from responding to what she was unconsciously doing to me, when she kissed me, I almost couldn't control myself again and then she sc

Immediately I get back to my office, I sit on my chair and remove my shoes. I don't think I can survive another minute in this shoe. I sigh in relief and massage my feet once I take the shoe out. It's been four hours of intensive practice and thank God for the lunch break else I would've died inside that room. I got to watch other journalist do other shows and I was given instructions about how everything is going to happen. Honestly, I can't wait for Friday and from the look of things, Baddie can't wait for Friday either. Baddie really made the whole practice interesting and I already feel so relaxed with him. Baddie says he likes that kind of atmosphere and so do I. Baddie reminds me of Derrick, when everything is settled, I'll take Derrick's lunch offer. Baddie walks into the room smiling. He sighs and slumps into his chair. "Hey we could have lunch together. There's this place at the corner of the street, it's pretty good"."Maybe next time, I really can't walk in this shoes, m
Spirals: Tattoo in my mind 60 First impression
BaileyBryne pulls up at the parking lot of the building. Today is Monday, my first day at work and the excitement isn't as much as I expected it to be.Bryne squeezes my hands and I smile. Bryne has been everything since I lost our child. He has been over caring and I'm just so surprised at how perfect he's holding everything up in this situation. I hope my sour mood isn't going to affect my first day at work, I don't want to give out any first impression of being grumpy. "I know you'll do great" Bryne hands me a jar of cookie and I want to decline but it's my mom's cookie and who dares decline it plus he won't let this slide as I strongly refused to have breakfast. I take a bite and another and another till I'm done with four cookies. Bryne smiles, handing me a bottle of water. "Thanks" I gulp down the water and check my self in the mirror again for the 100th time today. You can't blame me for that, appearance matters as a new employee and a journalist at that. I know my life i

I plop down after wearing my rubber gloves, I dip the floor scrub into the foamy bucket of water and I scrub Bailey's blood stain from the floor of my dad's kitchen.Today is Saturday and I'm happy Kara agreed to keep Bailey company even when she's supposed to go back to college today. I told the housekeeper and the cook not to come here today because I'm sure they would've felt obliged to clean the blood from the kitchen floor which I wouldn't like them to do. My mom told me to pick her up in an hour's time and I hope that I'll be done with this by then. I scrub the floor harder and wipe out the foam to see if all the bloodstain is gone and I repeat the process after seeing some stubborn stains still on the floor. I've not discussed the plans I have for the company with my mom yet even though I'm sure she'll be uninterested in it as usual. Sometimes I wonder if my mom actually loved my dad because shortly after my dad burial, she moved to Georgia to be with Khaka, her boyfriend wh
Spirals: Tattoo in my mind 58 Discharged
BRYNEI lead Bailey into her house but she doesn't respond to me. She has been this way since she got conscious and I hope she gets better. I'm so happy she was discharged, I wouldn't stand spending another hour in the hospital. Kara has gone to my dad's house to get all the shopping bags over to Lee's house. I can't keep her at my dad's place, my mom may come home anytime and I cant explain anything to her yet. Bailey goes to her room and I follow her."Lee please talk to me, say something, anything" I can't bear the silence. "I was just so careless, I couldn't-" I wrap my hands round her waist and pull her to me. She can't blame herself for this, she shouldn't take all the guilt to herself. I'm at fault too, I didn't listen to her enough to understand. She sobs quietly and I rub her back. We'll work through this, I know we will. "Why didn't you tell me?" "How could I tell you, I was scared" She sniffs and I tip her head up to look at me."I told you I want to be involved in
Spirals: Tattoo in my mind 57 Another lane
BRYNEI pull up at my dad's driveway and Kara immediately gets down. I'm so exhausted from the shopping and I honestly wonder how women do this thing and not get tired.Kara is worse than Bailey when it comes to this, we've basically bought so much that there's almost no space in the car for the bags. I know Bailey will be angry when she sees this but how did she expect me to handle Kara, Kara that literally scares me.I bring out some of the bags and Kara brings out some too. "Wow! So you guys lived here when you were younger" she stares at the building and I laugh."Nah, I spent most of my childhood with my nana, I don't think I've stayed for up to a year in this house, that's why we all call it my dad's house" I struggle to open the door and Kara follows me in. I drop the bags on the couch and go back to get the rest. I pack so much and Kara does the same but the bags doesn't finish. "We'll get the rest later, let's find Bailey to check out these stuff first" Kara rubs her palm

I stare down at the pregnancy strip in horror.I don't know how to feel about this. It's scary! I can't be pregnant, I'm on birth control pills. Could some skipped days cause this? "Fuck" I place my hand on my forehead and shut my eyes tightly together. My whole life was about to start and this? I feel like crying but the tears aren't coming out. On one hand I'm happy about this, Bryne, the father of my child, he shouldn't find it difficult to accept but I don't want to pose anything on him. Both our lives are about to start for me to bring this up now. I'm finally about to start a lovely job and Bryne is about to take over his dad's business and join the elite club and this. I sniff and throw the strip into the bin. I don't know how to tell him about this, I'm not even ready to tell him yet. I hope he isn't awake yet.We'll work through this, that's what he always say whenever something goes an opposite way. We'll work through this.I place my hands on my belly and stare at my r

"How was your week?" Bryne asks"I met Cole-ouch" I scream as a sharp pain passes through my knee."Are you okay" Bryne sits up immediately and I nod."It's just my knee" I relax my knee but Bryne uncovers the blanket and keeps my knee on his laps and starts massaging it gently. "Ouch!" I exclaim as he touches the spot that pains me the most. "Sorry about that, does it hurt here?" He touches another spot and I shake my head in negation. "Have you taken your pain relief?" "I'll take it later""I'll get it for you, where is it?""Over there" I point at the other couch and he goes over and brings it, with a bottle of water as well."Thanks" I swallow the pill and he gets the bottle of water and medicine bottle and keeps on the table.He comes back to the couch bed and continues the massage "I'm just happy you didn't hit your head when you fell from the stairs"."I'm happy too, everything just happened quickly, I was on the third step and then I see myself rolling down and hitting my kn
