I smoothered my jumpsuit but before walking down the corridor and into the visiting room.
The once in a while we were given the chance to receive visitors, was presumably short and as i walked on, i sighted Gloria by the doorway.
She had been a wreck for those first few days, but after she had her first hearing, it seemed it went almost as good enough as we hoped.
And that was a reason i remained optimistic for mine, my master calendar hearing was drawn a week earlier as soon as i spoke to the lawyer that Marc hired.
"How are you doing?" I placed my hand across her lower back before walking towards the table.
"Maria" Marc's eyes gleamed in surprise as i sat across.
"Marc" I called and a smirk formed on his lips.
"Your boys, i think they're going to be fine. I've hired a very prominent lawyer that handles immi

WUTHE NIGHT OF THE MURDERLike every bad decision i ever made, it all started in a bar-The colors of street lights smeared from behind the blurring glass by the sides of the less eccentric bar closer to my house.I turned around, stealing glances each time i heard the ding sound of the opening door-It was as if i was reliving that night all over again, but this time, clearer.Soon, after looking at the fast paced clock and then at the text that displayed on my phoneWu: Can we talk? At the bar down the block--i decided to leave, finally letting it sink that all of this was a not a good idea.But then, she walked in with her hands in her black leather jacket and her eyes behind a darker shade of her usual glasses,-probably because she

I asked and she gave an eye roll- "Probably down the block or somewhere" She shrugged her shoulders before walking off."Thanks" I said, turning to Jules."At least now i don't have to worry about rent and utilities-" I joked with a smile as i turned to the box."Ever since Harry, and you know, working shifts in a coffee shop ain't gonna pay my rent" I paused after she let out a shrill laughter."I'm sorry about, Wu" She said, hesitantly."Oh, it's not your fault-" I waved off with a scoff."I did testify about the

And the flashes. The clicking. The verdict.And those Goddamn voices in my-****"Fucking head" I gasped, jolting from my bed before i sighed at another consecutive nightmare.And i fell back into the bed, my hands into my face.TWO WEEKS LATER

MARIAMy gaze buried deep into the swirling of the coffee i had in my hands and i could swear it reflected right in my pupils, perhaps that was what Marc looked at.He pulled away as the smell drifted past my nose with the heat and i smiled. The smell of sweet, fresh coffee.That was underrated and the sight of a sexy man in an apron too.I bit my lip as he stole a kiss, juggling the pan in his hands which held the pancakes before dishing them unto the plates.He glided his hips stiffly from each sides to the sound of a latin music as maybe a way to impress me.But he already did. And i wish I could tell him, there was no need, Marc.But God, i loved his moves. And his hair and his food.I loved him-And the hot coffee in my hands.

Natural is beautiful" He said, placing soft kisses down my neck and i scoffed, pushing him to fall on the other side."I told you, i don't cheesy. They make me cringe" I said, without resisting the smile that crept to my lips.He shut the camera close before placing it unto the table and climbing back unto me."I need to get to work-" I mumbled before he shut me up with a kiss that slowly went down my torso."Oh-"****I peered from behind the fenc

Jacqueline had her legs up in the air as Harry squeezed her palms tightly. She couldn't believe she was here, doing this again."Push" The nurse yelled into her ears as she felt hands running down her thighs. "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. Jacqueline was in Harry's hands as they watched the tom and jerry movie. It was whilst giggling tha

You could hear his brief chuckles and my loud giggles as i almost tripped.He halted to catch me in his hands. 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. That had always been here for the big and small moment

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

WUEverywhere was silent, the door had finally stopped swinging as the nurse went back out. The same nurse that had wheeled me in. 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

AALIYAHEverything had changed. With my parents by my left and Dele sitting close to me on the hospital bed. I could hear my slow groans as i was intubated.But alas, my eyes were open and i could see Leila walking slowly towards me with Wu beside her and the only question asides who wouldn't have thought——Was the inevitable one of whether or not i was willing to let go. But the choice was not up to me.If not, maybe i would have chosen to stay and then my eyes fell her. With whom i shared so much of a striking resemblance with. Who would've thought?My own sister, Ayeesha.-There was a light that flashed behind my eyes. The light, before my eyes shut wide open. Dele was beside me and Diane, and Wu.“I’m so glad you’re awake” Dele said, clenching my p

JACQUELINEAaliyah walked towards the door, twisting the knob to slide the lock out of place. I could see her shadows from beneath her door. It had approached after knowing merely twice. 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. I trailed him with the corner of my eyes as the door closed behind him. They were scattered around the halls i had noticed. And Wu was seated up, against her pillow which was against the wall.She looked better.She was better. She had a bandage wrapped around her left wrist and one around
