"A tale of obsession through the eyes of a fanatic."
Every tomorrow is a bold question mark for the motherless child Ivy Valentine. But one constant in her life that always offered smiles and hope was purple music. So one day, she decides to write...
Today is the day u finally look back at me. I feel a little nervous. I got home at 3 last night and slept 4 maybe an hour. I can't stop thinking about u. I'm hoping once we touch I can get rid of all this anxiety. I don't wanna be scared around u. I don't wanna make u uncomfortable. But I know neither of us have control over this whole soulmate thing.
I'm hoping u don't run from it. Sometimes I wish I never wrote u that letter because that's when I found u. I wish I never went to ur concerts. I wish I never heard Raspberry Beret. But now I'm aware that u're the missing piece 2 my life. And I'm tired of running from it just because of who u r.
So here I am.
I hope u give me a chance 2 show u.
Love Forever & Always,

I could feel his aura as I walked through the halls, heading towards the large break area to store my lunch in the fridge. Today was definitely gonna be the day.
I was glad, because that morning I took extra time straightening my hair, and I threw on some color for once. I always wore black bottoms, because I was never comfortable with how my butt stuck out. But I always got the impression that Prince appreciated curves, so on this day, I wore a one-piece jumpsuit, daisy in color—just for him.

With a frantic heart, I turned every corner carefully. But every glowing compliment that came my way was from everyone but him.
Today was the meeting Celeste told me about. The management team provided us with donuts, bagels, orange juice and of course, coffee, but I was too nervous Prince was gonna walk through the door to indulge in any of it.
