I sauntered into the mall. Being an essential service, those were one of the buildings still open on the roads. I couldn't go without noticing how surreal and tranquil the streets were.

Sometimes it felt like i was the only one walking, when Jade wasn't as far off. I wore the boots that slammed against the ground noisily, yet still managed to give me the main character energy.

"Go and get the detergent" I said to Jade through the mask, who still doubted we had reached a stage in whatever relationship we had that we went shopping together. For detergent and snacks.

And because it hadn't dawned on me that she was practically living in, i wasn't that scared. All Jade did was nod, before diverging into another aisle.

My fingers grasped around the ribbon on a shelf cake, my maroon red nails matching the corners of my face mask, which was an unbelievable

    AALIYAHOne second, Aaliyah was on him.She glided against his sweaty member as their eyes met each other. She was on top and he was below, his arms raised behind him as he muttered some words while the corner of her lips formed a smirk.Their was music behind the sounds of their voices as Dele suddenly began to jerk forward. You could see the veins through his neck as it fell backwards, shutting his eyes. “Aaliyah” Her name was the only word between his lips as she too closed her eyes—Her lips curled to form an O as she increased her pace, she didn’t mind the movement of her hair on her shoulders. The rising and falling, the jerking like the person underneath, the low slapping sounds that was slightly overshadowed by the music. And then she found herself falling forward, holding his arms together as the moans increased by the second.

    JACQUELINEI strolled across the pavement that led to Wu's. She had called in the morning that she needed help with her writing. But now, it was Jules on the phone.I had reached the house but still loitered around the front porch. "So are you settling in good?" I asked, and after some hesitation, she replied. "Yes""I miss you" She added softly as a smile crept to the side of my lips. "God, i miss you too" I replied and then she asked. "Did you get the letter i wrote?""Did i—" I paused, remembering there was a letter that Aal gave me from Jules without remembering where exactly i had kept it. "Yeah, but i'm yet to read it" I just replied, giving a scoff. "I guess you could say i'm still settling in" I let out a soft laugh."And the meetings?" She asked."Virtual. Yet to start" I replied and once again there was a long pause. A pause

My eyes trailed it and went up the machine that my hand was connected to intravenously. Yet i turned away from the sight——and i faced him. Alejandro. He had spent the entire morning with me. The entire mornings of the past days and even though i hadn’t completely forgotten that last time we were out, i was willing to give it a shot. So i asked again, “So tell me?”“Tell me about her. The woman that swept you off your feet after i was gone” I said so casually that he burst into a chuckle before clearing his throat.“She’s—” He paused, arching his brows. “She’s nothing compared to you. Nothing like you” My eyes dazed and i chose not to react to that sentence. Perhaps it was my brain forming up sentences and scenarios as a side effect of the chemoth

My palms brushed against my neck, relieving the aches as i cracked them.I finally turned, to see Jacqueline slumped on the couch and then suddenly some light hit my face. My pupils dilated as i looked away. I realized for more than twelve hours, my eyes had been fixated on the monitor, trying to conclude a chapter.The first chapter.And it was on reading the last word that the radiance of the sun hit my eyes as the drapes swung open. I had seen Jacqueline on the couch a second ago so i knew exactly who it was.“Wu” She called.“Jade” I responded, still shielding my eyes as i tried to balance on my feet. “I didn’t know when you came in” I said and she scoffed. “Not long ago, i didn’t want to disturb you. The club was not so busy but i stayed back to help Jones with a few things” She tied the curtains, not bo

    JACQUELINENOWI fell to the ground. I was pushed, with my hands tied and a clothe around my eyes to prevent me from seeing where exactly i was. As i reached the ground, it felt heated like there was some sort of fire and i could instantly hear the sound of a man——as if he was on a call.I struggled to stand immediately at the sense of being let go off and i realized my legs weren't tied. Perhaps that was the point, i could move but i couldn't see but somehow i couldn't walk. It's like seeing the world but not being able to touch it.Knowing you have something, but not being able to reach it. And it was more torture as i kept stumbling on little things until i couldn't stand anymore. I could not even use my hands as any sort of direction, they were tied. And as i laid on the ground, i had wandered what exactly happened.I had wandere

    WUIn Miami, chances are you've witnessed a drug transaction, you have sold or bought drugs. We were known for that, when we weren't working——we were having fun. And that meant drugs, the late night parties, wine and strippers. It was no doubt that we knew how to have fun. Because we could spend the whole day working tiring jobs and that was our breathing space. Our space.And with the drugs. Came the luxury. Miami was luxurious and extravagant and ostentatious.

"You're contracting, baby's coming out soon" You could hear the sound of her hands against the gloves.Jacqueline's head was tilted and her eyes faced the ceiling, refusing to look at Harry who was barely holding himself together in his blue scrubs and the napkin he had against her sweaty forehead.She was weak, feeble as if it were her first time. She couldn't believe she'd have another this soon, and all she could hear was the sound of their voices the night they talked about it.NINE MONTHS AGOThere was still a box lying on the kitchen counter.

His arms wrapped around me as the winds breezed into my face, swaying my hair to the sides. I wore a smile on my face as it all moved slowly——i was here, not mentally but in this exact moment. Physically, in a short white dress and a veil that had fallen along the aisle. And i wanted to stay here. I wanted to always be here.He gripped me a little hard that it began to tickle and i pushed him away to the ground before making a run for it. I ran towards where the sun was setting and where i could still see Maria and the other people and the wedding canopy that we had set.Just a few of us, family.

    WUI had always wanted to bring her flowers, but not like this, not at her grave. It was shimmering with snow that dropped to the ground.And my boots were buried in it whilst i stared at the red flower i had dropped it. I looked to the chair that was beside, snow on the seats before i sat in. My gloved hands wrapped my elbows as i moved my head warmer. Each breath i took gave accompanied with a chill. It was freezing out here.But i didn’t care. I just wanted to see her.“Anyways Fox is going to spend time. Life probably, i just don’t want to know or get myself involved in anything like that” I said, as if we had been talking for a long time. Silence dawned as i looked to the gatekeeper. He was already used to me coming here since the past few months and talking to a corpse. I wasn’t crazy, he knew it.He would often say how i wasn’t the only person that came here to do it. The truth is,

    JACQUELINETWO MONTHS LATER"The loss of a someone close to us is perhaps one of the deepest and most sensitive we will ever come to experience. It can be difficult to process these emotions and work through the stages of grief" I had started out, calm as if i’d gotten my emotions in check. You could hardly believe that i was the same one that broke out in tears a while ago.I cleared my throat, staring Wu in the eyes, who had nodded to give me a sort of encouragement. I then breathed heavily before i carried on."To say Aaliyah was selfless would be an understatement— She was more and to a lot of us, even more. She tried her best to brighten our lives even when she was living in the dark" I paused.I had read all the articles to prevent me from crying when i passed the eulogy. I had read about remembering to breathe, eating befo

I sat in my chair in front of the bed in which she was laid open.The nurse had raised the sheets over her head but i was sure that she was listening. I had hoped that she was listening.Jade.Tears overwhelmed my eyes before they fell down my cheeks. The tears that were more than enough to ache the throat and make the voice disappear. I searched for the words to say as i finally saw her unconscious body, laying across the bed. I didn’t know it was going to be this hard to do this.“J—” I couldn’t get passed the first letter of her name as my voice quivered. I was shaking, as i buried my face into the tissue in my hands. I snorted in it before heaving in a deep breath.“Hey Jade” I broke into uncontrollabl

And then the door swung open to reveal her in an apron——and a half wide smile. “Jacqueline, now what are you doing here?” She asked, sticking the tips of her fingers into her mouth. “I just came to see you” I replied as i walked in, closing the door behind me.NOWI walked in, brushing shoulders with the sheriff that was just about to take his leave from Wu’s room.
