![]() PrologueA Chapter by Lonnie Paul Johnson![]() The prologue pick up moment after book 2 left off, Zack arriving home after he escorted Vivian home from the park.![]() The front door opens, Zackary burst
into his home exhausted breathing heavy every part of his body is racing with
excitement. He slowly closed the door so
he would not make any sounds. Leaning against the door his eyes shut beaming
face remembering tonight’s events joyfully. Seeing Vivian for the first time since the
breakup, she looked so beautiful, he told her how much he loved her. They held hands as he walked her home from
the park, ‘What a night!’ He entered the kitchen proud and
victorious spotting the refrigerator. Hoping
to find something inside to celebrate tonight great moment. Opening the door he spots a pint of chocolate
milk and a red apple, ‘perfect!’ He
swipes the items sits at the table consuming them pondering his relationship
with Vivian. For Zackary it’s been a strange
week; he remained astounded that he had a girlfriend. Contemplated the events that led to her
punching him in the face after that bump in the hallway to the kiss after he
gave her the bracelet, his prize for placing second in the art contest. Then suddenly it was over they broke up after
two weeks as a couple. Then he discovered earlier today
his father is getting married to a woman he and his sister has never met. They dreaded this day, wishing it would never
come. Their parents’ divorce over ten
years ago, but they clung to the faint hopes the family would be made whole
like before. His father introduces his future
wife, Joann. She did not fit the kind of
women he dated in the past. Paul
preferred tall, slender curvy women with beautiful long hair, sexy clothing and
flawless looks. Joann on the other hand
is small with no visible curves, her hair cut short and simple. This plain
looking woman dresses modest and she is a minister. Then strange visions kept invading
his mind portraying Vivian cruel saying hateful words. He rejected those thoughts, he made up his
mind that he will love Vivian forever.
Making that commitment to the universe, he felt the need to tell Vivian
face to face, giving back the bracelet she returned to him. Running out the front door on his
way to her home he is forming the words to say to her how much he cares and
loves her. Moving quickly on the
sidewalk passing the park he spots a person in yellow on the basketball courts;
he thought that might be her. He entered on the court, she turned
to face him, it’s the first time he saw Vivian in a dress, so beautiful. In the excitement he forgot his grand speech
professing his love and devotion to her, feeling greatly embarrass he swiftly
wrap his arms around her embracing saying what is in his heart, “I loved
you! I loved you! I loved you!” He did not look at her he just
place his face on her chest as raw emotion from his heart flowed out, he held
her tight expecting her to pull away but she embrace him too, he was so pleased
she didn’t reject him. Zackary want to
remember everything from how her skin felt touching his skin to the texture of
the fabric of the dress she is wearing.
He did not want to forget the aroma of her fragrant or the sound of her
heart beat. He wanted to remember
everything. Gulping down his milk wondering
about the future, the woman drape in white stands across from him gazing at his
face with great tenderness and love.
Paula the guardian is smiling at her baby proudly that he was able to
withstand the assaults from the Beast concerning his love for Vivian. © 2014 Lonnie Paul Johnson |
