This book took me 6 years to write. It started from a journal, a particular journal entry I wrote, and from this one entry I saw a life story. So slowly I started writing and before I knew it I had written 35 pages. I've always wanted to write but was scared to do it at the same time for fear that no one would like what I had to say. I soon realized that I had stories in my head and heart that other people could relate to and also find entertaining at the same time. So with that being said this story is fiction but there are some realities in it, and I would know since I lived it.
Excerpt
The phone rang. I thought it was my mom calling back to drill me. It was a unknown Name and number. I was hesitant on answering it. But when Darnel calls, it comes up like that. I answered it. “Hello” “Hi Dolli.” Darnel said in a sad low tone.
“Darnel” I snapped.
“I’ve been thinking about you like crazy, I miss you.”
“Why are you telling me this? You shouldn’t be thinking about me.” My heart was racing a hundred miles a minute. As much as it wasn’t right, I was excited about being on the phone with him. I’m supposed to be cussing him out right about now and telling him to leave me the fuck alone. His voice was sullen, I couldn’t bring myself to do it.
“I can’t help but to think about you. Have you thought about
me at all? Dolli I’m not trying to get you caught up.”
“Then what are you doing Darnel, just think about it? This isn’t right, not at all.” He didn’t say anything. I could hear the sound of wind and speeding cars in the background.
“I really need to see you Dolli, Please? I miss your sweet smell”
I could hear the anxiousness in his voice “No we can’t see each
other.”
“Yes we can, you have eyes and so do I.” Darnel broke the
tension for a minute. I laughed at his comedy.
“Don’t make me laugh. I’m upset with you.”
“Why are you upset with me baby?”
“Because, I really liked you, a lot. You should’ve told me about
your wife, before we went as far as we did. You put me in position
I never wanted to be in, ever.”
“Can I come over?”
“I can’t believe you. No. No, you can’t come over. Have you
heard anything I said to you?” he started to say something, but
instead he stopped talking.
“Goodbye darnel, please don’t call or come over anymore. I
have to go.” I hung up. There was nothing more to say.
