Soleil & Tremaine (A love story)

Chapter 90

Tremaine POV

"Babe you okay?" Soleil asked as she stepped out the bathroom, seeing me just sitting there on the bed.

"Oh— Yeah I'm coo. Sorry Mookie, just got some shit on my mind" I said.

"Can I help at all?" She asked as she sat beside me and put one arm over me.

"Just thinking. Bout all this shit wit my dad. Him being back around irks me, not gone lie." I said.

"I can understand why." She said.

"He left my mother when I was bout 2. I remember he was supposed to come get me when I was like 5 or 6. I was sitting outside. Waiting and waiting, till I figured out he wasn't really gone come. I felt stupid. Never seen him again, up until now of course. I just hate that he turned our family to the usual statistic. You feel me?" I said.

"Of course. I'm just glad we get a chance to do it differently. When the time is right and we decide to have kids and everything, we're gonna do things so much differently. Things we didn't have as kids." Soleil said.

"That's the main goal Mookie" I said and we both smiled.

"I know." She said back.

"You the main thang keeping me going. If it wasn't for you, I woulda lost my mind by now. Everytime I'm bout to do some crazy ass shit, I think of you and I calm down." I said and she just looked at me while caressing my beard.

"I truly feel like God sent you to me, Soleil." I said and she smiled.

"Don't make me cry." She said.

"I'm so serious. I'm thankful for you, day in and day out." I said and she looked at me for a second.

"You know... You know I love to write" She said to me.

"Mhm" I said.

"And I can go on and on about you. I wrote a two page essay about how infatuated I am with you." She said and my eyes widened.

"For real?" I said.

"For real.." She said as she pulled the envelope from the nightstand and she handed it to me.

It said "Tremaine" with a heart on it.

"Mookie.. Two pages? Front and back?" I said.

"Mhm. You can read it whenever. I just.. I love you Tremaine and I love the joy you put my in my heart. You were the one that always walked me home from school. So I always pray to God that you walk me home from life too." She said and that last statement gave me chills.

"Wooooo— Look" I said showing her my arm and she laughed a little. "You be spitting real shit to a nigga, be having me shook sometimes." I said chuckling.

"I'm just being real." She said.

"I know. And I'm thankful for that. I never met someone so solid." I said giving her a kiss before I put my arm around her and kissed her forehead over and over.

I then opened the envelope and pulled the letter out.

Quick note: He still has the letter, so I'm gonna put it on here 💙 Not the whole thing though because it's sooooo long but I'll put a bit on here for y'all.

I opened it and began reading it.

"Tremaine,

You make my heart dance, and my soul smile. It's so humbling to have you in my life, you make my life so much better since you've been in it. I think you are the remedy for everything. Oh how sweet it is to be so loved and appreciated by you. I love how I can count on you and with you. You're my lover, my prayer warrior, my safe place, my best friend, my boo, my business partner, my confidant, everything. You uplift me and push me to the best person I can be, and a better version of myself. I can't get that type of love anywhere else and I don't want to. Don't worry about what others say, because I don't. You're a good man, a phenomenal man, with a big dream that you're in the process of accomplishing. God handcrafted you so perfect for me, and I am so blessed to make these memories with you. Thank you for making the bad days, good ones. Thank you for holding my hand to pray. Thank you for loving me with all of your heart. Rest assured that I plan on loving you for the rest of my life.

Love always,

Your Mookie."

Side note: It was way more, I wrote two pages front and back but it's way too long and some things were personal so I gave y'all a little on here that I wrote to him.

"Mookie you sure know how to make yo man smile for real. You make a nigga heart jump. Seriously. This means everything to me" I said. I couldn't believe she even wrote this much about me.

I never had somebody love me the way she does.

"Then I'm doing what I'm posed to do. Tremaine I know everybody throws in your face how you're a thug and blah blah. Especially when they're upset. But they don't see what I see. When I look at you, I don't see a thug. I see a man who had no choice, but to turn to that lifestyle and it helped you survive throughout the years. Everybody says this and that but nobody took time to try to help you or to make you better. But see I'm here now, so it's all good." Soleil said.

And this is why she's my girl. She gets me. Shit, better than my own family.

"Come here" I said pulling her to me and we hugged. "I'm so in love wit you Soleil." I added while we were hugging.

"I'm forever in love wit you." She said back and we started kissing. She held the back of my neck deepening the kiss before tugging on my bottom lip as we pulled away.

"I'm about to hit the gym. You gone come with me?" She asked as she stood up and grabbed her gym bag.

"Yeah I'll go, lemme just throw some sweats on" I said.

"Alright I'll warm the car up" Soleil said and I nodded my head as she walked out of the bedroom and I headed to the bathroom.
