It’s a beautiful summer day with its clear and flawless blue sky. Alex glances at Tonya in the yard planting flowers, while he reads his book. The breeze blows past both of them, while they enjoy the simplicity of life. As the day fades, and evening takes shape, she glances at Alex with the face of a woman who is tired. Tired of the same things and ready to be treated the way a woman should be treated. Alex is just a simple man with simple thoughts in his eyes. In his mind, this is how she sees him. Life has a way of making you forget your dreams, goals, and those ideas that get us through the weeks. Seems as if life has dealt her a blow or maybe she is just simple now versus what he remembers about her. All she wants is to be happy, secure in life, taken care of emotionally, mentally and physically. Each day since they’ve been back together, he’s tried to read her mind, searching for her desires. She seems happy; yet, a bit unsatisfied. However, either way, he can’t wrap his thoughts around the answer. She doesn’t really know him anymore since his tragedy, but he knows her. They have a special undefined relationship. Their time or tenure will be coming to an end soon in this beautiful setting as soon as she’s done. Alex tries to become one with her mind and her desires; yet, he falls short each time.
The image of her brown looked soft to him as he watched her walk along the pathway, now it glows in the crisp night. Tonya walks inside the house and lights the candle in the window like she normally does for her father’s spirit to find its way back. As the candle from the window flickers from inner breeze, Alex is reminded of her beauty. The shape of her body is majestic and piercing at times. The two stairs that lead into the house play host to his body. There, on the stairs, she preoccupies his thoughts, lost in her more than before. It’s been a while since he’s looked at her in this manner. The night smothers any light with the exception of the light beaming from the house or the small candle. With just a pair of shorts on, the sweat still forms upon his chest and brow, as a result of thinking about her soft lips, deep brown eyes that light up when she smiles, her succulent neck that calls to him on this night. These thoughts clutter his mind as Alex happens to see inside straightening some items. With her silky black hair pulled back, and a long white cotton sheer dress on that highlighted her radiant body, she walks peacefully to the door to look outside. She seems to have something on her mind, as she’s a little withdrawn. Was there something on her mind? Tonya is mysterious as she looks out to see if the night has truly begun. The night air ran through the screen and through her dress, lifting the bottom, displaying her radiant thighs.
Her small feet ran across the floor to the armchair inside. There she sat with her arms wrapped around her knees staring at the fireplace of which she started. She seems to be lost in the sounds of the crackling wood, the scent wood, and her own thoughts. What could she be thinking?
His thoughts begin to betray him, thinking of impeding on her space, but she appears to be lonely. Arising from the worn stairs, he walks inside and stares at her with a look of admiration. She stares upwards, wondering what his intentions are. Alex smiles at her and leans down to kiss her upon her lips.
