“Sometimes you just need to be alone with your thoughts, and you seemed so at peace out there, I didn’t want to disrupt that.” “How can my peace interrupt my peace?”
“You work out every morning… your body looks like that, and it’s hard to believe sometimes that you want a body like mine.” I rubbed her body and kissed her shoulder. “A body like yours… the fuck does that even mean? A body that has given life, and still looks good… that’s what I want. That’s what you have.” I gave her chills as I stared at her through the mirror.
“I want everything that comes with you… these stretch marks came because you carried my daughter. That scar is because you risked your life to bring her earth side.”
“All I saw was a beautiful woman with pain in her eyes. When I look at you, I gotta talk myself down because my dick gets hard for you, Alaia. I don’t see no other woman because all I see is you. Your body is mine, and as long as I fucking love it, nothing else matters… As long as you sitting on my face, who gives a fuck what other bitches are saying. They can’t compare and you wanna know why?”
“You got the ring and the man they can never have … who bed you in every night?” “Yours.” “Ours,” I corrected her.
You’ve been used to be people talking and never coming through for you. That ain’t me. I asked you to be my wife, and I’m not entering you until you are that.”
“You are beautiful. I appreciate you. I respect you. I know you’re worthy of all good things. You—” “You belong to me in the best way,”
raised my eyebrow. “Yes, what?” “Yes, Daddy,” she kissed me on the lips, and I wrapped my arms around her, kissing her shoulder. “Remember, you the prize, not a possession, Joy.”
As I thought about that girl that stuffed those pills down her throat just to get away, I couldn’t believe that I was the same girl sitting outside on a pool lounge holding my daughter. The same girl that wanted to kill herself, had two reasons to live.
If she made one wrong move, then I was going to tell my grandson that his mama went to get milk, and her ass never came back. I would do whatever I had to do to protect my son and grandson.
I wanted to be so happy that no one else or nothing else mattered.
I can’t even picture what life was like before you came waddling into my life again. I’d do everything all over again if that means you’ll be at the end waiting for me. I told you that I’m on your time, and I mean that always. I got your back, your sides, and your front, baby. I’m here and I’m never going anywhere.”
You are my superman, the man of my dreams, my home. I’m honored to stand before Allah and become your wife. I love you so much that it hurts at times. Thank you for taking the risk and deeming me worthy while healing a broken heart that you didn’t break.”
“I promise to love you until I take my last breath. I promise to always put you first, and honor you. You are my husband today and forever…

Capp looked over at me. “Do you want Daddy to take care of him?” I looked into his eyes. “Please.” “It’s handled.”
“My baby told me she wanted me to handle you. What can I say, Ralph… I’m a sucker for her. Happy wife, happy life… feel me?” I winked at her, and Quasim took her back outside.
“You know the first time I brought you here, it was when I knew I had to have you. Didn’t give a fuck who I had to see, but I knew you were going to be mine.”
