"Here, I brought you some ice cream. I got a little bit of everything." V said while putting the groceries down.
Tamora was just laying on the couch in V apartment. V invited her to stay after she found out what happened the night before.
"Come on, eat some food. It will make you feel better." V putting a big spoon of ice cream in her mouth.
Tamora didn't say anything. She just laid there with a blanket over her head. V pulled it away. "You been like this the whole weekend. You need to get out for a little bit."
"You don't get it V." She snags the blanket from V's hand. "I'm done with my heart getting ripped in half. I keep making the same mistake of falling in love. I officially swore off love." She covers her face again. "And I mean it this time."
"You didn't see what happen. Maybe she was very drunk and kiss Felix for the heck of it."
"He flat out said he missed that. By the way, you told me he has never fallen in love before."
"I thought so too. Felix or Ralph never told me about Nell. She new in my book."
All of suddenly, Tamora phone went off. "Are you gonna answer that?" V ask.
Tamara didn't say anything. V grab it and answer it.
"Hello. No, she not available right now but you can leave a message. Alright, I will let her know. Thank you. Bye."
"It was the gym and they need you cover a shift this evening. I think it will be a good idea if you go because it will get you out of the house."
Tamora rolled her eyes and nodded. "I guess. I need to get my anger out anyway."
"Thank you!" V handed her the phone.
Couple hours later, Tamora went to work. After the class she taught was done, she went straight for the punching bag.
"Excuse me, are you done with the bag?" Some women came behind and ask her.
"Give me a couple more minutes and it will be all yours….." Tamora turned around and saw who it was. She grows beyond anger.
"Before for you say anything, please let me explain what happened Saturday night." Nell calmly ask.
"I'm the one with punching mitts on right now. You're really gonna ask me to listen what you have to say." Tamora again punching the bag.
"I understand that you don't want anything to do with me but please, all I'm asking is for you to listen to me for a minute."
"If you want to do me a favor then just get out here." Tamora continued to punch the bag.
Nell pulled out a 100 dollar bill. "Fine, say I want you to be my personal trainer for the next hour. Then you have to listen to me." Nell handing her the bill.
Tamora shook her head, "I have plenty of money."
Nell pull out a checkbook "How much do you want then?"
"I don't want a single penny from you. All I want is you to get out of my life." She punches the bag even harder.
"Fine but at least listen to my warning. At the end of this, you're gonna be paying for is regret." Nell started to walk away.
Tamora let out a deep breath. Then she remembers a while ago when Felix was here at the same place comforting her about her problems. "What do you got to lose?" She said to herself.
"I'm your for an hour and only an hour," Tamora shouted to her.
Nell turn around and smiled "Do you like running? I have the perfect trail."
After about a 45 minute run they made it to a high hill that had the view of the whole town. They both took deep breaths and tried to cool down.
"Okay, I'm listening," Tamora said while sitting on the top of the hill., admiring the view.
"Did Felix ever mention me?" Nell came and sat right next to her.
"Nope. Is that all you want to talk to me about?"
"No, I ask that because Felix and I were very close back in the day."
"How close?"
"Here I show you." They both got up and walk to a tree that was a couple of feet behind them. Tamora looks closely and saw Nell and Felix's names carved in a tree with a heart around it. "We carved this when we first started dating. We dated for 5 years."
"What happen?"
"When we graduated from high school he brought me up here and propose to me. I was shocked that he did that, to be honest. He told me I was the one he wanted to marry and wanted to start a family with. I was in the moment and so I said yes."
"And?"
"The day of the wedding. I never walk down the aisle. I was young and I wanted to live before I go and get married. I ran away to New York City for college to fulfill my dream to be a fashion designer."
"You just didn't show up to your wedding? You didn't even talk Felix about first?"
"Like I said, I was young and stupid. I left him a note telling him that I wasn't ready. I really broke his heart."
"Why are you telling me this?" Tamora leans against the tree that had the names carved on it.
"Because I'm now realizing how stupid I was for letting Felix go. He is one of kind man. It's extremely hard to find a perfect guy like that. I'm telling you this because I want Felix to be happy. He deserves someone like you. You two really have something special."
"We had!" She corrected Nell. "I can't fall in love anymore. My heart has been crushed too many times."
"I kissed him," Nell shouted.
"But he enjoyed it. Look, it happened and we all have to cope with it. Thanks for the nice run and talk." Tamora began to run down the hill.
"Wait Tamora!"
"What? Listen it's been an hour. I'm done with you."
"Felix's told me he loves you."
Tamora looks up at her. Completely off guard of what she told her but then shook her head. "You expect me to believe that exceptional coming from you."
"Listen to me. If your gonna believe anything from this, believe that Felix loves you. He told me you're the most amazing women he has ever met. You're his entire world!"
"Why should I believe you?"
"Because.." Nell picks up a sharp rock. "I believe him." She crosses out her name on the tree and wrote Tamora instead. "Felix never lies especially to the people he loves. Give him a second chance. Everybody deserves a second chance."
Tamora remains quite.
"Have a good life Tamora. Take good care of Felix." Nell then ran back on the trail.
Tamora came up to the tree and saw her name now on the tree. She took a deep breath and said "Second chance?". Tamora was in deep in thought. She looks at the clouded sky has a single tear fell down her cheek. Then a stronger breeze pushes her forward. "A Second chance!" She then smiles then ran down the hill as fast as she could and then race to Felix's house.
By the time she got there, the sunset and it was getting dark fast. A storm was coming.
She bruted open the front door. "Felix! Felix!" Tamora called out.
"Tamora?" Ralph came out of the kitchen.
"Where is Felix?" Tamora completely out of breath.
"He still at the worksite at your house. He should be home soon since a storm is picking up. What's the matter?"
"Nothing. I just….." She smiled.
"Just what?"
"I don't know yet. I let you know when I think of it." She dashes out of the house and ran to the worksite where Felix was.
Felix was on the roof putting the last piece of tar paper on the house before the storm hits.
Tamora came and spotted him on the roof. "Felix." She waved at him.
"Tamora?" He gulped. All of sudden, it started to rain.
"What are you doing up there? It's raining, you can slip."
Felix amazed that she is actually talking to him and that she cared about him right now.
"Felix, are you listening to me?"
Felix still froze in fear.
"I'm coming up there?" Tamora started to climb the latter.
Felix shook out of it. "Tamora don't. It's too slippery….." Felix all of the sudden slip of the roof.
"Felix!" Tamora reaches her arms out to catch him.
Felix fell right into her arms. "You okay?"
Felix looks up and see Tamora. He began to blush because she was so cute with her wet hair in the rain. "Let's get inside." Tamora carried Felix inside the house. With the new roof on, it wasn't leaking anymore.
They lucky had towels inside the house from the painting early today. They grab some and dried themselves off.
"You should call yourself troublemaker because you are always getting yourself into trouble," Tamora said to break the silence.
Felix finishing drying his hair then put his hat back on his head. He had no idea what to say. "Tamora I'm so sorry for what I did last night. It…." He was cut off when Tamora throw her wet towel at him.
"You don't have to explain. Nell came and told me everything earlier."
Felix began to blush. "What did she tell you exactly?"
"About your history with her and …. stuff." She blushed.
"Anything else that she said?" Felix trying not to panic.
"That I should give you a second chance." She smiles at him.
Felix smiled brightly. "I'm glad to hear that." Felix phone went off. "It's Ralph. He wondering if we need a ride home. I'll tell him to drop you back at V place to get your stuff."
"Don't bother. I'll get it tomorrow." She winks.
Felix smiled and finish sending Ralph the text.
"My house is so beautiful. I can't thank you enough."
"Oh thank you. I'm trying to make its goal to have done before Christmas or at least new years."
"Well hopefully at new year because I'll throw the biggest news years eve party ever."
"You have a deal! Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention. Your family is more than welcome to come down for thanksgiving. My parents are going to come down which I'm ….."
He was cut off from the sound of a honk from the car outside. Ralph was outside.
"I call shotgun." Tamora ran to the car. Felix followed her.
"Thanks for picking us up." Tamora and Felix both said as they buckled up their seat belts.
"Anytime. I don't one of you getting sick. Looks like you two made up." Ralph started to drive.
"For now." Tamora looks behind her sit to look at Felix. Felix blushed. "What were you saying about your parents coming down for thanksgiving?" Tamora ask.
Ralph slammed on the breaks. "Wait What? Your parents are coming down for Thanksgiving?" Ralph not at all happy with the situation.
"Umm ya, I forgot to mention that. They are coming down and staying the night. I hope that's okay?"
"Not only I have to eat with them but I have to sleep under the same house has them. Where are they going to stay? Tamora is in the guest room."
"I was going to let them stay in my room and I would sleep on the couch."
"Your bed is a full size. How on earth will they fit on that?"
"That's a good point." Felix put his hand on his chin.
"They can have the guest room and I will sleep on the couch." Tamora offered.
"I can't ask you to do that Tamora."
"Well how about I just stay in your room and they can sleep in the guest room." Tamora shrugged her shoulders.
Felix began to blush. Tamora will sleep on my bed. Her beautiful fragile body will sleep on my bed. He thought to himself. "I'm fine with that." They both smiled at each other has the reach the driveway.
When they got inside, they started a fire to cool off. "Hey Felix, since I don't have any of my clothes can I just borrow a T-shirt?"
Felix's face begin to burn. He imagines his little T-shirt around her body. It wouldn't even fit around her huge breasts. Felix said to himself.
"No offense Felix, but none of your clothes will fit you Tamora. I'll let you borrow one of mine." Ralph went to his room to grab a shirt. "Here you go, one of my old high school T-shirts. Return it whenever. Good night you two."Ralph close the door to his room.
"Good night!" They both said has they walk upstairs. "Well, good night short stack. I'm happy we made up." She smiled with a little pink on her cheeks.
"Me too Tamora, have sweet dreams." They both walk into their separate rooms.
Felix just jumps on his bed with happiness. "Thank you! Thank you for a second chance!" He smiled and closed his eye until he heard a knock at the door.
"Come in?" Felix leaned up from his bed.
"Hey sorry to bother you, but can I borrow your phone charger? My charger is back at V's house." Tamora said.
"Ya, sure." He grabs it from his dresser. "Here, catch!" He throws it but she accidentally missed and went behind her. "Sorry, I never was the best with sports."
"You're totally fine. It was my fought anyway." Tamora went behind her to pick it up. When she did, all Felix saw a completely perfect view of her butt. She was wearing Ralph long T-shirt with nothing else on not even panties. When she got back up, she smiled, "Sweet dreams Felix." She winks at him has she close the door slowly.
Felix was so mesmerized that he couldn't move. "Did she do that on purpose?!" He said to himself. Just the thought of that made his eyes rolled toward the back of his head and fell right back on his bed.
