Mommy is sleeping. Our time together is ticking away. We don't know whether or not she's going to wake up so we have to make the best out of what can possibly be our last instances together.
This could very well be her last tribute, our last chance to walk down memory lane. Therefore, mommy and daddy are coming together to teach me the greatest lesson in life - love conquers all. As an interracial couple from opposite sides of the track, I'm sure they had to overcome more than the average couple usually do.
This is their story. This is their love on paper. Ride along with me as I get to know what happened before the big sleep from my cocoon in her belly.

Someone Like You | Sample
When I met him on a rainy afternoon the air smelt like gardenias. My black oxford pumps were soaked from accidentally stepping on a puddle, and the tiny yellow umbrella I held up barely saved me from the chilly rain. When I met him on a rainy afternoon, the sky was pink and blue. I was starving and almost craving to smell the stuffy scent of my closed up home's small living room. When I met him on a rainy afternoon, his son held my feet out of the blue and called me 'mum'. He rushed out of the restaurant only seconds later, his cheeks a pale flushed hue. When I met him one day on a rainy afternoon, he looked up into my eyes and apologized. And inside my head, I thought to myself... what a lovely way to meet a lovely man on such a lovely rainy afternoon. β’β’β’β’β’β’-β’β’β’β’β’β’-β’β’β’β’β’β’-β’β’β’β’β’β’-β’β’β’β’β’β’-β’β’β’β’β’β’ 1st Draft - 15/03/18 2nd Draft - 08/08/20 Published : 28/08/21 | Paperback & Kindle Cover : Sierra Po Trailer : bobaComplete

"Mommy am I your child?" My mom looked down and chuckled at me. "Of course you are Theo." She said continuing to cut the vegetables that I hated. "Then why do we have different skin?" I blurted. I was five at the time and I didn't know any better. "Who said that?" She asked looking at me concerned. She knew I wouldn't have thought that on my own. I was always perfectly happy with everything. "This kid Matt. He said his mommy thinks you're weird because we're two different skins." I said coloring in my book. "Well don't listen to what people say. Love doesn't discriminate." She told me sternly. I took her advice. Highest rank: #6 in interracial #2 in interracial-romance # 3 in sexualthemesComplete

BROKEN VOW
I stop at the last room, stare at the number on the door and crosscheck it with the one with me. I stuffed the paper away and ready myself for what lies behind the closed door. I lean on the door for a while and could hear voices but were incoherent. I tap twice on the door and the voices stopped. I repeated the process and received a response that sounded more like Hillary's voice. "Who is it?" He asked from behind the door. I knocked back instead, I didn't trust myself to sound differently. The door flew open in a second and I quickly wedge the door with my leg to prevent him from shutting it on my face. His face went pale on seeing me. I scanned him from head to toe. He was only in his brief. He tried blocking my view with his body but I push him aside forcefully. "Who is at the door, love?" Love? What a joke! Both our eyes snapped in the direction of the voice. I thought I heard my heart leap but not for joy, in pains. It was as though a knife was scrolled into my chest. "This is your Ghana?" I scoffed and walked past him in the direction of the voice, "I was at the door" I said catching her attention... β’ β’ β’ β’ β’ A charming couple (Nick and Lauren ) had to navigate their way out of a storming marriage that was once cemented by love. A single mistake is about to pull the string of their marriage apart. °°°°Complete

Just Sign Here~ MewGulf Imagine
~MEW~ I never intended to be a Daddy. Well...not that kind anyway. Fate had other plans, and this tantrum-throwing, heart-melting toddler is now mine to raise. As the CEO of a multinational hotel chain, I'm used to people taking orders from me, but that is not on her to-do list. No matter how much I love her, being a parent to Julia is not the joy and delight portrayed on social media. Then I hear his voice on the radio. Gulf Kanawut. I rejoice that someone out there gets it, and I will stop at nothing to have him under me. Professionally, naturally. All right, it's possible I can't resist going further. The terms of his employment are a little...unconventional. But if Gulf signs on the dotted line, I believe I can give him all the things he never knew he needed. He'll help me learn how to be a better daddy to my little girl, and I'll teach him how to be the best Little Boy for his Daddy. ****************** ~GULF~ In retrospect, it's easy to see which event changed my life forever. The day you walked into my work, handsome as all hell-no, seriously, the motherfucking epitome of silver fox, in a three-piece suit, no less-and you said you were looking for me. Me. But the first time I really felt the shift, like something momentous was happening, something I wouldn't be able to walk away from unscathed, was when you gave me three little words. "Just sign here."Complete
