I’m on the couch watching TV and eating breakfast when Michelle leaves her bedroom and comes sauntering into the living room. Michelle: Good morning! Alida: Un uh! Don’t come walking by like you slept here all night! *amused* I heard what time you got in this morning. Where were you? Michelle goes to the refrigerator…
I wake up to Michelle cooking and singing in the kitchen like Mama Nadine used to do… Michelle: *singing* ♫I put your picture on my mirror Start to blush when somebody says your name In my stomach there’s a pain See you walk in my direction… I go the other way I start to stutter…
Back at home… Alida: Sorry about the audition. What happened? Michelle: I don’t know. My agent was really vague about why I didn’t get it. But there’ll be other auditions. *gets up from the couch with a package* I got you something? Alida: What did you do? Michelle: Something I know we can’t afford, but…
I wake up, worrying about how I’m going to continue my programming classes now that I’m banned from the information center. The first thing I do is call Hali’a to ask if there’s anything she can do about the ban… Hali’a: I’m so sorry Alida. I’m afraid that I have to agree with Librarian Haych’s…
The clubhouse eventually begins to clear up a bit, so we make our way inside. I step up on a treadmill and begin a steady jog, while Q does some sit-ups next to it. When the treadmill next to me becomes unoccupied…Q steps up on it and we race next to each other until I…
I give the address in the text message from Q to my driver. Within minutes, I’m dropped off at a small building surrounded by the biggest houses and best view that I’ve ever seen. I immediately feel a bit out of place here. Q is outside waiting for me. I walk over to him, trying…
I feel his warm hands all over my body. They start low and move up slowly. I’m eagerly anticipating where they might go next… Suddenly I sense a bright light shining a bit too warm on my face. The heat wakes me up and I immediately realize that I was dreaming and the warmth I…
The air inside the bubble lounge is at least 10 degrees cooler than the air outside. I can see why people choose to hang out here. I head to the furthest corner of the room, hoping to avoid people for a while. Actually, there’s one person that I wouldn’t mind seeing, but I’d rather stay…
What I thought was an amazing idea last night, doesn’t feel like such a sure thing this morning. I talk myself out of even mentioning it to Michelle at least 20 times from the time I wake up until I finish breakfast. Michelle comes out of the bathroom sporting a cute short finger waves style….
As I’m sitting there enjoying the effects of the bubbles, I see Q hurrying by. I’m guessing that he must have been in the restrooms because I didn’t notice him before. Alida: So…is this where you disappeared to the last time I saw you? Q pauses for a moment… Q: Maybe…I come here a lot….
