Mahalia:
I look back at the tired looking woman; she looked as though she needed even just one simple hug. "You look tired...go to sleep mama". I explained to her while trying to get that pout off of her face. "No no...I'm okay I'm not tired I'm fine." I held her face "Liz...sleep" she relaxed her head into the palms of my hand. I looked up and we stared at each other for a little. This rising tension was crumbling down on me like ice. Then the unthinkable happened...then...she kissed me. The shocking part was I couldn't hold back and I returned said kiss. It was sweet, loving, and quick. It may sound corny but it felt like fireworks. Then guilt rushed over me. "I uhh I gotta go" I heard Liz say "I don't know what just happened. I didn't mean too I-" and I left the house after. What about Leon? What about her kid? What the fuck did I just do? What should I do? Fuck.
