All Chapters of Love On Time: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

As we're waiting for our order I look over him as sneakily as possible. He's tall maybe six-two or six-three, he looks lean underneath his jacket and dark jeans. His teeth are perfect and white and his skin really looks like brown satin; I want to touch him just to see if it's as smooth as it looks. Oops! My thoughts are running away while I'm looking at him so I turn away and look at the menu. I thought it would be a long time before I could have these feelings again. A year seems so close and yet so far away I can hardly remember how I spent my time then. I let myself wallow too long over that fool. NEVER AGAIN. I think angrily. "Hey, I have our food and drinks," Mekhi calls pulling me from those deep thoughts. "Okay, where do you want to sit," I ask smiling at him trying to recover the mood. "You lead the way, I'll follow," he says smiling back and just like that my irritation melts away. "Okay, I

    When I get home I find my mom in the kitchen having a cup of tea so I join her. I take my boots and rain jacket off at the door, drop my bag on a chair, wash my hands, and grab a mug to fill with water. I sit in the chair across from my mom and drop a tea bag into my mug full of water. My mom is wearing her red bath robe and her hair is wrapped up in a silk scarf. I yawn, stretch, and wrap my hands around the warm mug and relax in my chair. "It seems as though you've had a busy day," mom says smiling at me and touching my hair. "Yeah, I did. I'm glad that I called Rylie and Nova and met up with them today," I say to my mom feeling sleep weigh on me. "I'm glad you did too. Your eyes are glowing with life and happiness," my mom says. "I didn't realize that they were devoid of life; Nova and Rylie said kind of like the same thing earlier," I respond putting sugar into my tea and taking a s

      I have missed feeling cute and positive. Unable to find a spot in front of the café I end up parking on the side of the building and having to walk around to the front. Good thing the weather isn't bad today. I go inside and the familiar smell of coffee hits me and I stand in line thinking about what I want to eat. As the line moves along I decide on a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on a croissant with hash browns and orange juice; I'll get my coffee to go later. I order my food and head over to my spot to drop my bag in a chair to save my space while I'm waiting for my breakfast. As I am waiting I pull out some notes to go over for my Biology class, exams are coming soon and I want to be as prepared as possible. As I'm going over my notes I hear the cashier call my order so I go to retrieve it. On my way back to my table I notice someone sitting there with their head down. I have no idea who it could be so I pick up the pace because my stuff is still th

"Hellloooooooo," I call out to see if the twins are home and kick my shoes off at the door. "Yeah," Jackson and Journee call out in unison. "Just checking to see if you guys were here," I call out to them as I head to my room and freshen up for dinner. I turn on my speaker and play music from my phone while I get ready. Knock Knock "Na-na can I come in," Journee asks. "Of course," I respond leaning out of the bathroom to see who it is. "So what's new with you," she asks sitting in the chair at my desk. "Hmm a lot apparently. What about you," I reply smiling at her sitting cross legged in my fluffy chair. "Same as usual. I did make a little progress with Derek," she says with a shy smile. "Really? I'm happy for you," I say genuinely happy for my baby sister who isn't a baby any
