Thoughts and Feelings

The blog is 4 today! Thanks for all the reading and kind words. I hope you enjoy.

Water calmed every situation. Well, most situations. In times of anxiety or tension, a trip to the pier usually pushed away all negative thoughts and conversations and replaced them with temporary peace. Though the day wasn’t anxiety inducing for Vince, the need to get out and see the water with you in tow became first priority. 

“You think they gone be mad? We were supposed to have a review today.” You asked while staring out over the water as the small sailing vessel rocked side to side. 

“Nigga, if they can’t have a review without you, you need to quit.” He watched for your reaction until you cracked a smile to break the silence. “That’s what I thought. We havin’ fun, right? Look at the dolphins and lighten up. Take a picture and shit.” 

“Hell no. You know I don’t do pictures. Especially not when you’re the one taking them. I always end up looking wild.” 

“That’s different than any other time?” 

“Fuck you,” you laughed, shooting him a middle finger for extra emphasis. Vince joined laughter with one of his own before taking a spot next to you to enjoy the view in silence. 

Gaps in conversation always gave him time to get a good look at you in your element. If he were honest, he’d committed every feature to memory twice over. The way your mouth sat at a permanent frown even when you weren’t upset was his favorite. If he were asked, he’d share all his observations and more. But, you never asked, and he never told. Things were easier that way. 

After a long bout of staring at deep blue waves and a cloudy sky, you turned to Vince to study his expression. 

“How you feelin’ about today? Nervous? Excited? I can’t ever tell with you.” 

He scoffed and shook his head. “You asking hella questions today. I could’ve went to the Breakfast Club.” 

“Wow, you switching up on Big Boy that quick for Timbs and some rats? Should’ve never gave you niggas Power 105.” 

“You love the Breakfast Club, though.” 

“This not about me.” 

Another round of loud laughter drew attention from nearby families until both of you shot equal annoyed looks in their direction. 

“To be honest,” he started. “I’m not really thinking about it. I said everything I needed to say. If they like it or not don't got shit to do with me.” 

“It don’t worry you, though? Like not even a little bit?” 

He shrugged, “Only thing I care about is staying free, staying alive and y’all. The rest of that shit just extra. Plus, what they gone do, fight me?” 

“They might! You not built like that no more. We gettin’ old!” 

“You not built like that. Don’t put your failures on me, nigga.” 

A short round of playful slap boxing ended with more looks from strangers and a pseudo headlock to bring you closer to Vince in search of shared warmth from the strong wind at sea. You released a contented sigh that got lost in the surrounding noise. No matter how many times you’d experienced him in the passion of murky feelings, simple gestures made your stomach flutter more than you would admit. 

“Well, I’m proud of you.” Your statement received no answer aside from a small half smile. “I hope you know that you’re good at what you do. Don’t stop until you feel like you said everything you came to say. Then do some other fun shit. Make a couple movies or something.” 

“Might take some time off and go on that world exploration shit you be talking about. I don’t why you wanna get called slurs in French, but I’m down to ride.” 

“You serious?” 

His simple shrug served as a confirmation and enough to make your face heat with a mix of emotions. Together, you shared the remainder of the trip mixing comfortable silence with jokes about the sights around your immediate area. 

To another in your situation, the blurred lines and incomplete answers could drive any sane person beyond their brink. But you enjoy the shared time, space and moments in between just the way they existed. Time would unravel the rest of the story and make the journey sweeter than any could imagine.

Idk if I ever told this story but when I was writing Neighbors (which you should read, it’s so good), this person messaged me and basically berated me for tagging them in my content. And I’m like damn, my bad. I didn’t realize that I’d done that without you asking.

The problem is: they did ask and express interest.

So, that’s why I don’t tag people in things anymore. I don’t wanna bother anyone.

Corey Hawkins as Macduff in The Tragedy of Macbeth.

Highly recommend. I had to watch with a plain English translation of the play, but enjoyed it nonetheless.
