Chapter 1
Prologue
Learning to love again was the last thing on my mind, says Kerry! Then one-night Jim comes along mad and ready to fight! Kerry says to herself damn Jim always been fine, but he’s even finer when he’s mad. Now I’m approaching Jim (a 5’11 180 lbs, caramel, honey brown eyes with tattoos) hey what’s wrong with you and why are you walking around with a stick? Jim replies it’s this hoe names Kristy talking about she’s going to slap me! I then say to Jim oh don’t worry about that because nobody is going to put their hands on you while I’m around. So, we then sit down and talk awhile until his ride pulled up. Jim says Kerry let me get your number and I’m going to call you. The next night my phone rings and its Jim trying to get me to come to the hood and chill. I say ok I’m on my way but when I arrive in the hood I end up chilling with one of my cousins. I guess Jim got tired of asking me to meet him on the baseball park, because when I looked up he was standing right there in front of me. Jim grabs my hand and says let’s go Kerry. I follow behind him until we reach the baseball park then we sat down and begin to talk. (Now we got to get to know each other personally, even though we grew up together) After we finished talking we roll a fat blunt and smoked. Then next thing I know he’s standing between my legs and kissing my lips. I slide his penis out his pants and slowly begin to jack him off, and when it got hard we began to fuck right there on the table, not caring who seen us. We then walked over to the rock climbing wall and when he entered inside me from the back, I felt as if I was in heaven. After we were done I left and went home! We got into a argument an couple days later, and right before I hung up I heard him say Kerry I love you! “I had to call back and ask Jim did you just tell me you love me?” he replies, “yes I did”, and now I’m shocked! We began to hang out every day and just chill while we are burning a blunt. Jim then comes t my house to meet my children, but when I turn around and he’s outside playing ball with them. That so touched my heart because I knew from that precise moment that this is the man for me.
Chapter One:
We Made the Relationship Known
Jim and I have made our relationship official when a friend of mine says “Kerry you know that Jim was dating my ex girlfriend which live across the road from him, and she told me to tell you that “she’s pregnant. So, I called Jim and told him what was said, that when he told me that he only slept with her one time, and that she knew they were not dating and that it was a onetime thing. So now me and her are passing words because I felt like she was supposed to be my sister, and she wanted to fight me over a man that wasn’t hers’ when she was a married woman at the time. Eventually we spoke on the phone and the situation got dropped. I had a huge blow out with my family and end up moving in with Jim and his grandmother. Thing were cool at first until one day we had an argument and he hit me. Jim’s grandmother turns the corner to see me laid on the bed with Jim on top of me hitting me. Once she made him stop, Jim then took my son and our clothes and threw them out the door, then told me to get out. I then went to law enforcement because I wanted him to know that I wasn’t going to let any man think its ok to put his hands on me because I’ve been through that, and I can fight but in the end a man can overpower a woman any day. Jim ended up going to jail and told me that it was over. I thought he was serious, so I slept ex boyfriend. The next day I found out Jim was released, and he came to me, and I had to tell him what I had done because if we were going to be together everything had to be out in the open. When I told Jim, he broke down in tears and it tore me up because I loved this man. I held him why he cried on my shoulder and comforted him when he felt all alone. We said we was working past that, so Jim’s grandmother sent us to get her something to eat and when we got there, Jim let some people boost his head up to snatch my phone, and he broke my nail all because I was trying to see if money was on my card for us. The argument escalated to where Jim ended up getting hit with a Hennessey bottle, blood was everywhere, and I was ready to just leave this relationship where it was at because I knew he didn’t care. But then Jim dropped to his knees in front of my friends and let his feelings pour out. I moved to Lakeland a short while later, after speaking with his grandmother and promising I will have his back, because all she was worried about was, would Jim be ok after she passed on. One-week later Jim joined me in Lakeland, we talked! Oh, how I missed him so very much then he tells me Kerry I told my grandma that I loved you and wanted to spend the rest of my life with you. I responded Jim are you serious? He replies let me finish, my grandmother said are you sure that when I told her that I was going to marry you. I was shocked and excited, and then she died! Oh, how that tore my man apart, then right before the funeral my man started tearing me down by saying he had nothing to live for and nobody cared about him he wanted to die and go where his grandmother and mother was. That hurt me so bad deep down inside, my only reaction was if you feel like that then maybe you should die and go where they was. Jim punched me so hard in the face my nose was to the right and my nose instantly swole up so bad I had to go to the hospital and they called the police. When the police arrived, I told them so girls who my cousin had got into it with had jumped me while I was walking to the store. When I got back home Jim was waiting and said I thought u was going to have me arrested! I said no babe I love you, and I shouldn’t have said what I said to you. The next day we went to Clewiston for the viewing before the funeral. During the funeral I never took my sunglasses off. And then when we went to eat with the family, I noticed as soon as I removed the glasses everyone was staring at me, because my man told me he had punched me in my face because I disrespected his grandmother. But I still decided to let all that go and build a serious relationship with this man that I love so deeply.
