ONE NIGHT WITH A STRANGER 

PART TWO 

……It was on a Wednesday evening, four days since the night of the party. A night that she will probably remember for the rest of her life . Alicia had just  gotten home from school feeling tired and exhausted. She threw her backpack  on her bed, poured herself a glass of water and laid down to relax her mind. She had lectures  all day long and no time to rest at all. Not only did she work her ass off but she took no days off and all that was an attempt to justify all that her parents had sacrificed for her. Trust me, it was no easy task.

Since her tired brain didn’t want to turn off, she let it wander, circling around faucets, lighting fixtures, whether she should make something to eat or sleep it off.

She worked it in her head, played up shadows until she drifted off, drifted away into the lands of imagination and lust. Thoughts of that night with Scott played on repeat in her subconscious and she yearned for the next time he would put his hands on her. All she dreamt of was the moment he held her by the waist, pulled her closer to him against his chest and planted a tender kiss on her lips. His hands traced the fabric of her dress caressing her womanly body in the process. He gently kissed her neck and worked his way down her body. It was as if he was trying to prove a point and assure her that his tongue was willing to explore her whole body. Man, she was gasping for air all this time. He stopped, rubbed his thumb on her face and said to her , “ you are so beautiful. “

Before she could utter a word back he slowly kissed her as he untied her pony tied hair . He then turned her around and slowly unzipped her dress as he kissed her shoulders working his way down her bare back.  She let out a little moan when he held her waist and ran his hand down to her hips . She had yearned for this moment the minute she laid her eyes on him and here it was,  happening . He spanked her hard and she let out another moan . This turned her on as much as it did to him . She couldn’t wait any longer , she turned around and kissed him so passionately.

 This is what he had been waiting for , it was like a go ahead for him . It unleashed the animal in him . He took her into his arms and tossed her on the bed . He gently pulled off the dress she was wearing . She loved every bit of that  moment. He kissed her again but this time he took his time to explore her body . From her toes all the way up to her thighs , he took more time on the thighs making her shiver and moan intensely.  His one hand on her boobs he caressed her body and adored every part of her. 

She was ready to have him, her eyes spoke more and  moans had  turned him on  even more. She was dripping and He knew it was perfect for him . 


Her phone rang waking her up from her beautiful dream. She jumped out of her bed and grabbed her phone quickly like she was expecting a call from him. 

There was a look of disappointment on her face realizing it wasn’t him . 

“Hello, My name is Inspector Antonia , am I speaking to Alicia ?” 

“Hi, yes I am Alicia . How can I be of help ?”

“You are required to come down to the station to record a statement about one Mr. Scott Adams “,

For a moment her heart stopped and she was out of breath . Thoughts were racing up her mind .

“What could he have possibly done?” She wondered as she quickly put on a jacket and snickers. She picked some loose change from her small table and called her regular bodaboda guy.

The bodaboda took a while to get to her place. All this time she was standing at the gate restless. She was pacing back and fourth trying to figure out the kind of mess she might have gotten herself into. 

She thought of her parents and how they had high expectations of her. She thought about her siblings, they looked up to her . 

“It’s nothing bad Alicia,  everything is all good, “ she assured herself . She saw the bodaboda guy approaching and she couldn’t wait till he got to where she was ,so she rushed towards him. She almost hoped on the motorcycle while in motion . 

Memories of that night played back and forth in her mind as she rode to the station .

The wind blew on her face so strong but it couldn’t stop her mind from thinking   … 

When she got to the station everybody was starring at her and she wondered what could have happened .

“Where is he ?” She asked the officer on the front desk her eyes wondering around trying to find Scott but he wasn’t there.

“I am sorry miss Alicia , he didn’t make it !” Another officer said walking towards Alicia with a paper in his hands . 

“What do you mean he didn’t make it ? , Like he didn’t make it to come here or what do you mean ? “ she asked in dismay .

“No, he is no more Miss “, The officer answered 

“what happened? I need answers officer ! “

She was shaking , tears were rolling down her cheeks . She hadn’t had enough of him yet , she wanted to know him more , she wanted a repeat of that night. 

She was scared of that very moment, probably she was being framed for something she had no idea about . She had a family looking up to and a single mess would shut her life completely   

She was devastated .

“He left this for you,  would care to have a seat as you go through it ?”

He handed over the paper to Alicia and took a step back . 

She took deep breaths , closed her eyes and opened them again just to be sure this was real . 

She took a few steps and sat on a chair next to the door like she sat the very first day she had met him .

“Dear Alicia , if you are this then am no longer . I am sorry I left without a decent farewell but I couldn’t hold the guilty anymore . Everything happened so fast that night and I realized too late that I didn’t use the proper measures to keep you safe. I blame myself for getting you into this , you are an amazing woman, so beautiful and intelligent. I deserve to pay for my mess and there was no other way I could have handled it. This is my goodbye charming woman. Till we meet again “… 

SoUl  iN fEaR 

There are times that she wishes she never existed 

Sometimes she feels like the whole world is working against her 

Sometimes she just wanna get crushed physically 

Because emotionally more than often she’s crushed 

Sometimes there’s just a heavy baggage on her chest 

It’s more of garbage by the way . 

Sometimes she feels like nobody gets her 

Like everybody is judging her whole existence 


You know people look at the smile 

But barely do people look beyond 

Sometimes she wishes she could cut her chest open 

And let someone see that dark room inside there 

A room full of trauma. 

A room with so many insecurities 

A room full of pain and uncertainty 


Sometimes she just wanna scream her lungs out right in the middle of the street 

But everybody is gonna look at her like she’s crazy 

So she just holds it back and let a tear roll 

Because either way the garbage has to come out 


Sometimes she can barely sleep 

Because the fear , the nightmares 

Sometimes she’s cared of speaking her mind 

Because the society, the judgements 

Sometimes she feels crazy 

Because the voices inside her head won’t settle 

Sometimes nothing makes sense 


But even with all the pain and everything surrounding her 

She doesn’t give up on herself 

She wakes up every morning stronger 

She conquers the world like her scars are the only weapon she has 

She walks head high knowing that She’s got herself 

And that’s what matters at the end of the day.

ONE NIGHT WITH A STRANGER 

PART ONE

She was looking absolutely gorgeous with her hair held back in a pony and her eyebrows freshly done. She is not the make up type so she was just natural with some gloss on her lip and a scent to match her beauty. She was far from perfect but she looked just perfect. 
She donned a silky golden dress.  She had nice small boobs that fit perfectly in that dress that had her cleavage showing just enough.  Her waist was small and perfect complimenting her curvy body.  

The party was set to begin at 9pm. She had been invited by a friend so the only person she was familiar with was the friend who invited her. 

She got there a little bit past time but just at the right time. 

Everybody was seated and it was time for food before the party started . She sat on the last seat just next to the exit , and he sat right opposite her. He was brown in complexion with the perfect gorgeous eyes that were glowing, he had a nice body and just the perfect height. 

Their eyes met and right at that moment, there was a spark and some heat. Thoughts were racing through her mind and she had him figured out for a minute. They couldn’t take their eyes off each other. 

There was a moment that none of them would ever forget because that moment was magical. 

People were chatting and sharing stories while having their meals but for them, silence and glances was enough to understand each other. They would continuously steal glances and smile at each other. She felt something tingling inside but probably he didn’t or maybe he did, who knows?

It was about that time when everyone was letting loose and living in the moment. Everyone else was in pairs, except for these two. They just sat there stealing glances at each other. Finally, he rose up from his seat and walked towards her his eyes fixed on her. You could tell in an instant that she was shaking and probably thoughts were racing through her mind. 

“Seven is my lucky number ” he said as he sat next to her . He was hot, the Mr. Steal-Your-Girl you know.  She pretended not to have heard him and mumbled something just to dismiss him and  pretended to be looking at something on her phone.  

“If I say you are pretty I’ll be defaming the amazing work of the creator “, he whispered to her ears this time making sure he was close enough to her.  Her body was shaking and getting all heated but she had to act like he was nothing.  

“Have the other six you’ve met today heard that same line?” She said with a corny look to let him know she heard him the first time. 

He liked the fact that she wasn’t as easy and the thrill that came with trying to please her turned him on even the more.  

“I am Scott, ” he said and turned to look at her . 

“She is really beautiful,” he thought to himself. 

“He could make beautiful babies,” she contemplated . 

“Nice to meet you Scott “, 

“What are you having tonight Miss? ” 

“I’ll have white wine thanks for asking “, 

He walked over to the drinks table and poured wine for her  and got a beer for himself.  He walked back to where they were seated and handed her the glass of wine as he sat down.

“Alicia, my names is Alicia, ” she said  putting her phone away. 

“Wow, a beautiful name for a beautiful woman,” he admired in silence.

They sat awkwardly and silently beside each other and they were calmly sipping their drinks. In no time however,  they were talking and laughing and sharing what could have been I don’t know what. 

They were both getting tipsy and the conversation was getting intense so they decided to shake off the heat on the dance floor. Little did they know that was the genesis of a terrible mistake.

The music was just perfect for the moment, they were holding each other close as they danced, they were enjoying each other’s moves and warmth and all. 

Just in that moment , he leaned in and planted a soft kiss on her lips and she couldn’t resist him so she kissed him back. For a moment they were in their own world, completely lost and being in the moment. Then he stopped, held her hand and looked  into her eyes . The moment was getting intense and they were starring at each other lustfully. 

“How about we take this party elsewhere? ” he asked her 

She was completely blown away by the kiss that she couldn’t bring herself to utter a word. 

She just giggled and nodded to say yes .

He grabbed  her by the waist and kissed her deep then held her hand and they both walked through the exit…..

MISTAKES 

​Today I just want to talk about life and making mistakes. I just figured that we make so many mistakes before getting to the right way which is pretty normal and with each mistake there’s a lesson. 

So there’s this thing that people judge us from our mistakes, our past and the chapters of our lives that they walked in at knowing not that the same past has brought us with them. 

I believe that nobody is perfect and we all live by our imperfections. But is it right for people to judge others ? is it fair for people to use your mistakes against you ? And make you feel that you are entirely entitled to them? 

Mistakes are meant to make us learn, good lessons, bad lessons and see life in all ways that there is. I wonder why people see our mistakes more than they see our progress. Judging hasn’t ever made progress but gave privilege to stereotyping. 

Making a mistake doesn’t have any level, letting you know when it will come to an end. Mistakes happen lets be positive with them to recieve the lesson that comes with it. Let’s embrace our mistakes.

Positivity is a missing virtue in the human race today. 

After a mistake is done the best way to deal with it is to pick the positive lessons learnt and move on with life. Holding on to the past and the mistakes that we have done holds our lives back and we can not progress, we can not move on, we can not correct the mistakes. We should learn to let go, accept our mistakes and apologize then move on with life. For those judging you can put a deaf ear but to those growing with you keep them well. 

There’s no perfection in this life but there’s always room for improvement and also correction. Sometimes our mistakes look like the most right thing we have done yet with time we realize that it was a mistake. 

Basically it is okay to make mistakes because that’s how we learn about life and that’s how we learn to make the right choices. 

They say that sometimes we can avoid the mistakes by listening and being cautious but I would say even being cautious could be a mistake.

Allow me to quote Marie Forleo who  once said that “if you could avoid your mistakes , you’d miss everything you learned from them.” when a child is growing up they stop using the pencil and use a pen. why ? because they need to learn that mistakes cannot be erased but they can be corrected. And they will always be there to remind us of where we going and where we want to be in life. Without mistakes, I’d say that we wouldn’t move on with life because we would so comfortable with ourselves but once we realize that we’ve made a mistake we should correct it and move on with life. Don’t let a mistake beat you down. 

I’ll end by saying, Don’t bring yesterday’s failures and mistakes into today. They are over and done with. learn from them and move on because today is a new day. 


MOVING ON

its sad how we let people in and they break us into pieces. its sad how we love people and they dont ever see it. its hurting how we care for them and they take us for granted. sometimes we feel guilty for their mistakes we even feel pain when they hurt. Most of us have been in this situation and we all know its a very painful one. But well what  are we to do about it?.

Dont make other innocent people pay for someones mistakes.Dont let the past determine the future.Forgive forget and learn from the mistakes.. Do what you do best and let the rest be  whatever. Pick up the broken pieces and create something better. it doesnt matter how  ugly the scars look like. you can still make them look beautiful and make them a constant reminder of the things you have learned in life..
