Amidst the bustling cityscape, the streets were a river of restless energy, with cars and pedestriansnavigating the concrete labyrinth in a constant dance. The city's heartbeat pulsed in the form of honkinghorns, screeching tires, and the hurried footsteps of people rushing to their destinations.On this particular afternoon, Kevin, a man of quiet composure and unassuming demeanor, foundhimself amidst the chaos of the city. His purpose was simple – to cross the street and continue on hisway. But little did he know that his path was about to intersect with a fateful moment that would alterthe course of his life.Kevin stood at the curb, waiting for the traffic signal to change, his thoughts focused on the errands hehad yet to complete. As the signal turned to a welcoming green, he stepped onto the crosswalk, and theworld around him transformed into a blur of motion.In that very moment, as Kevin made his way across the street, the world seemed to collide. The screechof tire
After a long day, I walked into my apartment, my thoughts filled with the presence of two veryimportant people in my life: Kevin and Samantha. My relationship with Kevin had deepened, and wewere navigating the intricate dance of emotions, still uncertain about where it would lead. Samantha,my friend and confidant, was undergoing her own journey of healing and self-discovery in the midst of acomplicated marriage. The complexities of my connection with Kevin often swirled in my mind, a mix of affection, attraction,and lingering uncertainty. I cared deeply for him, but the path to love was a winding one, and I was stilltrying to understand the depths of my own heart. Samantha's struggles weighed on my heart as well. Her marriage to Charlie was a facade, and I could seethe toll it took on her. She was grappling with her own quest for authenticity and happiness, navigatingthe fine line between societal expectations and personal fulfillment. As I closed the door to my apartmen
I looked at the bathtub. It looked so nice but so dangerous at the same time. It had been a while since I had been there. I walked closer to the water . I closed my eyes as I will always love you played from my record player I had a beautiful blue towel on. I put my hands on the water and felt it . Ouch. It was too hot. I turned on the cold water to cool it down a bit. I moved my hands aimlessly around the water just to wait for the exact temperature I wanted it to be. It was a very specific remedy which I needed after having such a long day. I looked at the rose petals I had put on the water as they floated around at the touch of my hands. I couldn't believe I had put rose petals on the water as if I was waiting for my man to have a hot tub moment with me. I took off the towel and looked down at my bodily features. Was I too unentertaining to men? Or was I too intimidating? I looked into the mirror that was at the side of my bathroom. I looked at myself and remembered about the a
Oh what a day. I had then reached a point where I was achieving my dreams fast. I had seen all of my aspirations coming to life. I was seated in the dressing room as the make up artist was working on my face to make sure that I looked decent enough for my fans. The room was filled with all these staff members moving back and forth. I definitely did not know all of their names. I mean, it was a TV show set and I was the main host of the show itself. “All done.” Maria, the make up artist said .“Thanks.” I replied as she stood and left me there to warm up for the show. The mirror was lit all around showing me how I looked exactly. I was still dashingly handsome if I could say so myself. It was living proof because judging by the women in my dms at the time, I knew. I took the note book that was on the table there and confirmed my lines for that specific show. It was going to be a special show celebrating the people’s choice award we just won for the show.“Hey , Charlie, you’ll be on
The door was almost falling off with the amount of knocking that was happening. My head almost burst out.“Fuck off!” I shouted but whoever was there didn’t stop. I had to get my behind up and move to the door and open up or this guy would take it all the way down.“I’m coming. “ I said as I half opened my eyes to go look for my robe to get to the door fast or this guy would make it more worse on my ears.I took my robe and started to walk out of my room. All of a sudden the person on the door stopped. Just when I had even gotten out of bed just to get to the door. I came slowly to the front of my apartment and opened the door. Weirdly enough, it seemed like the one who was there before had already left and decided to go away. I looked down the hallways just to make sure that no one was around and then I noticed my mail on the floor. Well that had to be the mail being brought to me. And then I remembered exactly why there could be that type of knock at my door at that kind of time i
I got back home in the morning with a hangover. The girl from the previous night was actually really good in bed. We had a lot of fun and then drunk and that was why the hangover was killing me. The only reason I came home was because I had to show my wife that I was really at work. I parked at home hoping that she was out with friends at the gym or something so that it could give me time to sneak in and get some clothes before leaving and not have to deal with her tantrums and complaints but I was wrong, I was so wrong.As soon as I got in, she was standing right there waiting with her hands wrapped around her waist line and anger pouring out over her facial expression. “What?” I asked as I began to walk into the house. She stood in my way.“You mean you are going to be out all night in God knows where, and the only thing you can say is what? You have to be crazy. “She said.“What the hell is wrong with you Samantha? I just told you last night that I was working on a project for w
I didn’t get the courage to tell Patrick what exactly brought me there but I at least gave him my support when he needed. I got into the bus as I didn’t bring my car that morning. I sat at the back near the window. As I was getting confortable, I received a text from Patrick. He said he was thankful I came to him that day and that he forgot to tell me some bad news. I asked him what he meant and he replied by he didn’t tell me that due to the low views he has been getting on the channel hell have to delay some pays that he hadn’t paid to us the previous month.“FUCK!” I said. It was just all I needed in such a situation.The bus driver turned around and looked at me.“Are we okay back there?” he asked. I knew it was definitely me because the other guy in the bus was busy listening to some music and his head was in the clouds.“I’m okay.” I replied. I knew I wasn’t. How was I supposed to get myself through this tough time without any earning? I was both in shock and anger but also in d
“ So do you live here?” Kevin said to me as the bus we were on starting reducing it’s speed to the stop which I got out on. “Yes.” I replied still itching from the embarrassing way I met this dashing stranger. I stood up , he also stood up. I thought it to myself ' what a gentleman! ‘ I walked slowly down the big rusty bus staircase and had once small glance at Kevin. I was so attracted to him. It has been a while since someone like him had been that close with me for five seconds without running away. I stood outside and opened my bag just to make sure that everything was still on the bag and that my eyes were the only thing left behind. Turns out something was actually left behind. I looked up and Kevin was standing outside. “Hey, you? “ I said. “No, I don’t. I just think it’s wrong to allow such a beautiful lady walk home by herself at this time. “ he explained much of which I began to compre
