Marie
It was day. Id just woken up Keisha was still asleep. Sunlight streamed in from the closed curtains. Our room was dark. I stretched next to her and kissed her on the back of her neck. Her skin smelled like cologne from last night.
"mmm morning baby," she said waking up.
"Hi morning," I replied.
"How'd you sleep?"
"Ok and you?"
"Good."
She turned to face me.
"Why just ok?"
"I was plagued by dreams of my mother. And. Well. And you."
"What about me?"
"You. I don't want to scare you."
"Marie you know you can tell me anything."
She was on top of me now.
"Ok um well…..you're going to die."
"When soon?"
I nodded.
"wow."
