“I’m not the type of woman that begs a man to stay with me. But please, Rakim. Stay here. With me.”

“I couldn’t leave him. Not now! Not like this. Not only would it be downright unethical, my heart wouldn’t allow it. For him, my empathy ran deep.”

“Our bodies were bare. Heat radiated from us, practically burning us alive from its intensity. Still, it wasn’t blazing enough to stop us.”

“Maybe we were moving too fast. Entirely too fast. Nevertheless, I didn’t want the roller-coaster ride of bliss to end. No matter how fast we were moving.”

“Because bad boys need love too, Rakim.”

“I just want you to be good again. And whatever you need to do to get there has to happen. I might not know exactly what’s going on in your relationship, but I know how big your heart is. I know how much you love and care for others to the point you put yourself last. Don’t put yourself last to him. Please."

“I was addicted to the brown specks in his eyes. Enthralled by his mysterious, bad boy persona. Until I knew everything there was to know about him, cutting him off entirely wouldn’t work for me.”

“My thoughts of him were loud and beautifully suffocating. To miss him already was uncanny. But I did. I missed submitting to his authority and swooning under his will. Already.”
