Although it seems like a questionable move, I text Jasmine the following day. I send her a very simple message that I know will pull out a definite response.
Sorry about the other day. A lot is going on.
It takes less than three minutes before I receive a response.
Np. ;)
The emoticon makes me pause. Why is she winking at me? I canât lie. The wink is like a tickle to my navel.
I have already decided that I will not press the issue too far, but I do want to soften any antagonism that might still exist from the last time that I saw her.
So when is the wedding?, she texts.
I wonder just how much I need to be saying. The way that many guys get undone is by confiding too much of their business to women who are not their girlfriends. I have heard of the side woman knowing so much about the main woman that she would forever have the guy (and his woman) over a proverbial barrel for as long as she was around, like a hanging blade swinging precariously over his head, able to drop and cut right through him at any moment.
I decide to deflect the question.
Didnât know u cared :)
A few seconds later she responds, whatever man.
Then I text, So are u off the market yet?
I feel my stomach starting to tense. What exactly am I doing? I feel as though I am walking into a vault with the door locking shut behind me. This might have been cool if all of this happened before I proposed to Lailah, but now the situation is downright spooking me out. I can feel that I am on the verge of playing with fire, and frankly, at this point in my life, I donât know how well I can juggle that.
When I feel my phone vibrate, I see her response: Nothing serious.
At this point I have reached the farthest distance that I care to go with this right now. I know that we have an open connection, but just how open is what weighs on the back of my mind. I am almost afraid of what it would be like to be alone with her at this point. I keep seeing her, naked and dancing, when I close my eyes. I see her rotating her hips, one leg elevated on the edge of my bed, while my face rests beneath her vulva. I can still taste her, as I stroke my hand up and down her lifted calf.
I shake my head and immediately force a memory of Lailah to the front of my mind. I think about how long it took me to get to this point with her. Every kiss, every caress, every embrace. I waited a long time for those things. And now that I have hit the jackpot, I am looking back at a scratch card from the neighborhood corner store. What the hell is wrong with me? I canât possibly be this weak. I refuse to believe that.
