Dark and Light |
by Becky Holland |
It was the strangest thing to me for Buddy and I actually to hook up. Many folks would say we were a mistake. Others would laugh at the idea of me and him. If they knew. If they only knew that what they thought was true was actually true.
Buddy first came into my life on, ironically, Valentine's Day. He had come into the store where I worked to pick out Valentine's cards for his mom, sister, wife, and his girlfriend. I remember laughing when he told me that. I helped him pick out the cards.
Nearly 6 months laters, we met again. This time we ended up working together at another retail store.
He is this big tall man, and he is so different than anyone I know. His past is full of things that well, no one in my family approves.
Our relationship was based on a lot of good conversation. We talked about everything from sports to family to the town we lived in to school to glory days(his high school days) to relationships. We flirted, we chatted, we ate a lot of lunches together.
I think we both were curious about each other, which is why we allowed our hormones to kick in. I was a virgin until then.
Most people would be like, mmmhuh, yeah right. All it is was the lusting, the sex.
We're still together after 8 years though. We have been through hell and back, and probably will keep going ot hell and back until we get rid of our feelings for each other.
I have tried to quit loving him. But it does not work that way.
That's why I say
this love is here to stay. |
