Chapter 3

When she awoke she looked around and noticed that the sun was out and that she wasn’t sitting by the window. “How the hell did I get here?” Then yesterdays events replayed in her head. “I totally forgot that he was here.” She got up and ran into the guest room, but to her surprise he wasn’t there. She then went to look in the bathroom, nope he wasn’t in there either. She then looked around the rest of her apartment but to her avail he wasn’t there. “Why did I even think he would be here when I woke up, just wishful thinking I guess.” She walked into the kitchen started the coffee machine. Then proceeded to make her a bowl of cereal and sat at the table. She didn’t notice the paper and gift that was left to her. After several minutes she finally noticed something shiny sitting next to her arm. “ I wonder what this is?” she said as she picked up the necklace and the paper that accompanied it. “ A letter?” She opened the letter and read it all the while gripping the necklace in her hand as if someone were about to run off with it. “ Mr. T. B. huh! I wonder what T.B. stands for?”

While she was pondering the initials on the letter she didn’t notice that her cell phone was ringing off the hook. She was then shocked out of her stupor state when she heard banging and yelling at her door. When she went a little closer she knew who the voice no make that 4 voices on the other side of the door were. “ Calm down guys I’m on my way.” as soon as she opened the door she was tackled down by a tall strong man. And he was followed by three other women. “Vivien, are you alright?” the young man said as he spun her around as if checking for signs of any abuse.

“Mykel, will you back away from her!” shouted a short, blonde haired woman. “Now Vivien we have been calling you all night and day, you never answer your phone like always.!” said another short, petite woman. “Let me guess you left your phone on vibrate and it is sitting on your night stand” said the third woman whose hair always made her stand out above all others. “ Ok guys I will tell you. But you all might want to sit down for this story. She looked at her 4 friends, the young man was really tall and well built he had black hair that was always spiked up. He was the most caring and lovable man you could meet but the only catch is that as in all good looking men he was gay.

Then she looked over to his right and she saw the most strong independent woman she could have, the woman had dirty blonde hair and she was as most people would say cuddly but Vivien loved every inch of the woman named Melanie. Then on Mykels left was a short petite half puertorican and Dominican woman named Madelyn. She was the shopping and mature one. Of course she was already married and had two beautiful children, and last but not least was the wild yet caring blonde, Vivien knew her for years they were practically sisters. Her name is Missy. Even though Missy was younger then her she always gave her mature solutions for her problems. As she looked at her friends arguing to themselves she couldn’t help but laugh a little.
“What the hell are you laughing for Vivien!” Shouted Melanie. “ Yeah are you going to tell us what the hell is going on with you?” spatted Missy. As Vivien looked around she noticed something was off. “ Not to get of the subject but aren’t we missing someone. “That’s right how the hell did we forget” said Madelyn. Mykel stood up and walked to the door and just as he was opened it a curly hair blonde with a cap on collapsed in the doorway. How could Vivien forget her dearest friend. Misti was her name and fun was always her game; don’t get me wrong she had a serious side too. “Water I need water!” as she held out her hand as if she was dying from thirst. Vivien went to the kitchen and grabbed out a bottle of water from the fridge. She rushed it over to Misti. Misti grabbed it and took a sip and was back on her feet in no time.

“ Man Vivien you should see the look on your face, you really thought something bad happened to me.” “ You should be ashamed of yourself!!” Vivien then smacked Misti on the back and walked away mad as hell. “Ouch that hurts you know!” “Well serves you right for trying to scare me like that.” Melanie jumped up off the couch grabbed Mykel and sat him on the couch next to her. “ Ok I would like to hear they story that was to be told to us before we were interrupted by Misti’s prank.” “ Okay but you asked for it. Vivien told them the whole incident; she watched as there jaws dropped on the floor. When she was finished they didn’t say anything they just looked at her. “ Even though I like the quiet I would like to hear some feedback.” Melanie was the first to say something. “ I just would never you the prude of the bunch to do something so sporadic like that.” “ Yeah what the hell was going through your head.” “ I can answer that for her.” Mykel then stood up as if he was going to act a scene out. “ If he looks as good as she describe him to be then hell the poor girls hormones where taking over, she hasn’t had sex in how long?” He then glanced over at Vivien and waited for a reply. “ I don’t really remember, do I need to give you guys a story about my sexual life!” “ Well I really don’t care about your sexual life or your crumby love life either but by the looks in your eyes you are smitten with this man.” Misti said as she stood up and gave her friend a hug. “ I have no idea of what you are talking about!” Vivien then walked into the kitchen and sat down at the table. As everyone sat in the living room Missy was the only one to truly feel that Vivien’s heart was in turmoil. “ Viv, I know its hard for you to love , I mean after your last relationship with Leo.” “ But your going to have to give in sometime.” “I know its just that after 3 years I’m just too busy to look for love or anything of that stature .”

The whole while that Vivien was talking to Missy she never noticed that she had picked up the medallion that the mystery man had left her. Missy seen a glint of red and noticed that her friend was holding something in her hands. She leaned forward and reached for it and caught Vivien off guard and was able to grab it from her. What Missy held in her hand was absolutely amazing. It was a red crystal and when she examined it a little closer she noticed on the very bottom where the initials T. S. B. “Vivien where the hell did you get something like this?” “Well you remember the guy I told you about well he kind of left it for me but he also left this.” Vivien went over to the counter top and grabbed the letter and handed it to Missy. After Missy was done reading the letter she jumped up from the table and ran into the living room. Vivien got up and was about to run after her but hesitated. “ Maybe they will be able to help me look for him.” she thought.

Melanie was the first to come up to her and she laid her hands on her shoulder and then commenced to shaking her. “ Why didn’t you tell us about this!” “ Yeah this is huge that means that since he left behind this object he intends to come back for you.” Madeline said as she grabbed Melanie off Vivien. “Didn’t you guys just hear what I just read to you, he states that he will come back for her” Vivien at this point in time was sitting on the couch she didn’t feel very well. It felt like she was in the middle of a very fast merry go round and it wasn’t stopping. “ Guys I’m glad that you came over but I really feel ill. Misti then stood up and started to shove everybody to the door. Everybody said there goodbyes and before Misti walked out the door she walked up to Vivien and gave her a hug and made her lay down on the couch. “You are just overwhelmed take a nap and then call us when you feel better, you know we all love you very much and we just want what’s best for you.” Vivien gave a gentle smile. “ I’m so very glad you guys are here for me, if you weren’t I wouldn’t have got thru the rough times. So thank you from the bottom of my heart.” Misti smiled back at her then continued out the door. After her friends left she took her new found possession and slowly started to drift into sleep.
