Chapter 11:11


~Thursday Morning~


She let the text from C, that she woke up to, marinate for a while.
She knew that she needed time to reflect and just gather her true feelings before making any serious decision for the day.
So she went downstairs and made breakfast.

After breakfast and doing her yoga, she was ready to begin her day with a more positive vibe and much clearer thoughts on what she truly desired.
She went to her phone and turned it on and found a text from Eddie waiting for her to open.
Had she really forgotten about the Thursday agreement with Eddie from the day before!?
That's sad, she thought..
Then continued to open his message...

His text read;
"Is 12 noon going to work for you?"

She clutched her heart as if someone just stabbed it!
Ugh! How could she be so mean...

She had C and Eddie on the line waiting...
She had told Tric and Rafferty the other day that she was too busy and tired for anything with them.
And now here was Eddie and C waiting for acknowledgment as well..
But who would she pick?

After thinking about both guys and their perks and flaws...
She realized she really didn't have much of a choice...
Neither looked any better then the other.
With only one exception to differ...
C could kiss her and make her knees weak..
Whereas Eddie never stepped foot near her mouth..
So she made her decision...

She responded,
"Hey Eddie, I'm so sorry to cancel but I was called into work today."
And she hit send...

Almost immediately he wrote back,
"Ok"

And she knew he knew...
That with a crap lie like that...
He'd be gone forever...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Much much later that night, around 930pm...
C messages her to come over.
She asked him, if she was picking him up?
He mentions no, it's okay for them to be there because his family is out.
She was very shocked by this but accepted it wholeheartedly because it definitely made things a whole lot easier on her.

As she got into her car, in chimes a text as she is putting his address into her GPS.
"Bring Snacks!"
C writes.

She smiled at the thought...
They had done that one night before at her place.
Watched a movie together and just pigged out on junk before having more fun.
So she writes back,
"Ok!"

Just as she is pulling into his apartment complex, she gets another message.
"My people came home. You will have to climb in my window."

She couldn't believe it!
So she jokes back,
"So basically I'm going to be Romeo?"

He responds with,
"Laugh out loud, yes"

She rolled her eyes...
She had to pee..
Now what!?

Fast forward to window scene...
Oh Romeo! Oh Romeo!
Wherefore art thou Romeo?

"I'm climbing in your window, B*tch! Give me a hand!"

But the bastard did nothing except watch her struggle to climb in his window.

She couldn't believe what a non-caring person he was.
But she took notes.
Mental notes.
C was starting to look like the ugliest Juliet she ever saw!

Then to make matters worse...
He treated her like he was trying to get revenge...
Not during the sex, but just with the way he avoided her during all the time before and after the event.
She knew something was up.
He must have gotten jealous somewhere down the line.
She must have hurt him somewhere.
Nobody is an asshole for no reason.
She knew that much.

But she figured...
He was her reflection.
She wasn't opening her heart to him.
So he reflected the exact same coldness to her in a way she could feel it.

She wanted to be the warrior.
The brave one.
The one without emotions.

Well, She got it.

But she didn't like it.
She knew she had to change.
Otherwise, she would always end up in the same type of situations
only with a different face and different name.

As she left his house...
She made a vow to herself to follow her heart from then on.
To not be so afraid to be real.

Real with her emotions and Real with others.

Which of course...
Stirred the opportunity a chance to be born the very next week!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sunday Night Monday Morning
(A.K.A. 12am)

Tric messages her!

She had assumed Tric was done with her last week when she declined his request for a threesome with his friend and told him she would rather wait for the date with Eddie.

But Tric was clearly head strong.
He knew never to give up.
He knew that people worked in flows.
and that if he could just find the right flow, he'd slip right into it with ease...

And he must have felt her flow go from disappointment with C to wanting exploration again because he messaged her at 12am Sunday night with...
"My Latino friend is asking about you, are you up for it?"
