"Triggered I am not ok, Triggered when I see your face, you need to stay out of my way".
That text was the last time I communicated with him. I can't believe it ended like this, after what I thought were three good years. How could I believe the lies, the promises, the sweet nothings. I was so naive to believe everything he told me, but I was young; no one has ever looked at me the way he has, has ever shown me a life outside of the church way. No he was different then the boys around the church. He was no good but yet so good for me. I should've listened to my parents when they told me people on that side of town were no good. Every time I close my eyes I picture him with her, I want to go and fuck the both of them up, but I'm weak I'm broken. Now I have to pick up the pieces of my broken heart, the same heart he promised to never crumble. Where do I start? How can I continue my everyday routine when he's not a part of it anymore granted he's the cause of my pain but I still need him. I still want him.

"Kassauni, there is more to life than continuous pain and suffering. I am sure you know that, and no one is asking you to go through it alone," She told me.

"Whatever yah talk 'bout sound like a fairy tale and mi nuh want yuh feel like me is a problem fi yuh fix," I stated, staring into her eyes. She frowned, deeply. "You need to talk to someone, or me. I am here for you if you need anything." Her voice came out softer than usual. "Rosalia, left that. It nuh concern yuh," I told her. She hissed her teeth and slapped the blunt out of my hand. "Mi try talk to yuh, but if yuh nah go at least try to get help then mi nuh need fi deh here. Stay by yuhself since a that yuh fucking want." She turned and started walking away. // He was abandoned by his parents. Time and time again they let him down, not realizing that each time it was draining him.

WE WERE DESTINED
" I don't even like you like that." Her face scrunched up in disgust watching water drip from curls in his hair. " 'Cause you love me. Just like I love you." He retorted with a grin, disregarding the deflecting she was doing. --- They were two sides of the same city-until one move split them down the middle. Elijah and London were inseparable once, bonded by childhood summers, beat-up bikes, and secrets too deep for anyone else to know. Unfortunately, when Elijah's mom packed up and moved her family across Onyx to a rival neighborhood, everything changed. She always thought when she spoke to him again he would've changed like her. She was witty, sarcastic, and had a low tolerance, but he was still the same calm , sweet, cute boy with a heart the size of the sun. Some things haven't changed. Some things never change. The pull between them, the memories that still burn etched marks in their brain, and the words they never said out loud. In a world where loyalty can be life or death, and love isn't always enough to cross old lines, Elijah and London find themselves circling each other again. --- STARTED; MAY 26th, 2025 PUBLISHED JUNE 6th, 2025 FINISHED; SEPTEMBER 27th 2025Complete

My Ruin

"Why won't you let me touch you?," I insisted turning around to face him. "It's just the way things are. You just can't," he stated stubbornly.
