A little over two months ago, she hijacked my heart. I’d only been in New York for a week. I was in the process acclimating to the metro transportation system when a loud female voice jolted me.
“Yo, what
the fuck are you looking at?” she said, her raw tone laced with that New Yorker’s
accent.
She
garnered the attention of everyone on that car.
I looked
up from my phone to find a stunning girl glaring at some dude standing across
from her.
“I’m looking
at you, mami,” he announced with a smarmy
grin.
“I
suggest you avert your eyes before I pluck them outta your fuckin’ head, hombre.”
He
laughed, which sounded forced. “You ain’t much to look at anyway, uppity black puta.” Hanging on to the railing, he
made his way to my end of the car. He may have had the last word, but the scowl
on his face indicated that his ego had taken a hit.
After
that, I found myself helplessly obsessed with her.
Simone typically
sat on the same bench every day, and every day I moved a little closer to her. Took
me two months to muster up the courage to sit right across from her. Wonder how
long it would take to occupy the same bench as her. I watched her through the
throng of bodies swaying with the motion of the car, like I did every morning.
I tried many times, but I couldn’t tear my eyes away. I never could. I was blatantly staring again.
A shudder
coasted across the walls of the vehicle, making it lurch.
That’s
when she looked up. She glanced to the left then the right and forward, where
our gazes clashed.
Oh God,
oh God… Oh God! The furious knocking beneath my chest increased. A bout of heat
spread throughout my entire body.
Please don’t curse me out. I can’t help but stare.

This Passionate Thing…
There was something in his seductive eyes that said he wasn’t satisfied with her long drawn out, sappy reply. “I have a feeling you asked me about our relationship for a deeper reason.”
“Deeper…” A chesty chuckle rumbled from him. “Why haven’t you told Wes about us?”
Her next breath got caught in her throat. She stared into his bright eyes, unsure on what to say.
“Is it because he’s your lover too?”
Uneasiness swarmed her, chasing her bliss away. She pulled back from him and maneuvered to the edge of the bed.
Surprisingly, he let her move.
She drew the sheet around her body and gazed out the window. The beautiful city of Atlanta and its sparkling nightlights gazed back at her. “You knew?”
“I’ve known from the day we met.”
She’d lied to him. She told him that she and Wes were just really good friends, but apparently, her false words were only convincing to her own ears. “How?”
“The way you two gaze at each other when you think no one is watching…I only pretended to be oblivious to it because I didn’t want to disrespect what you two had, but the day we kissed, all of that changed. I would’ve said something earlier. Although, I didn’t think I was in a position to do so.” That would explain why he needed to know where they stood relationship-wise.
