I was at my sister’s home, and I think that we may have been sharing the home.

There was a leak in one of the AC vents, and they were trying to wake my mother up.

I entered her room and finally got her to check it out.

Somehow, I ended up outside.

I didn’t see myself walking there, I was just there.

There was this tall black guy.

I never got to see his face.

But he came and stood behind me and pressed his body up against mine.

He hugged me from behind.

It was a lover's embrace.

Omg…!!!

He was available and unavailable.

He was going through a divorce or ending a long-term relationship.

He never told me this.

I just knew it.

It was over for him, but she couldn’t let go or accept it.

In her mind, he was and will always be hers.

And here she comes…

So, he was forced to release me.

I went and sat down at a table, and he came and sat down beside me.

The table was small enough that he could drape his arm across it.

And his hand was just hanging on the other side.

So, I tested him to see where we were at.

My fingers toyed with his timidly.

He laughed a little and then entwined his fingers with mine.

(High-pitched scream)

I could hear her running her mouth in the distance, and then he released my hand abruptly.

Again, I don’t know what happened, but my head was lying in his lap, and he had his arm around me.

And here she goes again, trying to ruin shit.

She came and sat down behind us at the table, but he didn’t budge.

He kept his arm around me.

He chose me.
