Chapter Five:

The summer season was winding down and the magnolia leaves were falling from the trees slowly. Momma made me a steaming cup of apple cider. The crisp in the air showed Fall might actually come earlier this year. I was milling over my summer and even my year as I drank the warm cider. The one defiant thing swirling about my head was Cam. The man had won me over; even though I still tried to rein my utter level of happiness in. He made me feel things even my ex-husband couldn’t. Just the sight of him made my heart flutter.

Looking back on the summer we blew up like a fire cracker; we took it slow and fast. My other relationships usually slugged alone a morbid pace. But Cam made sure I got the slowness I needed to mend my heart and the passion I needed to move on and be happy. We spent hours talking, going to the movies, had dinner at home where everyone cooked, and lots of fun “adventures” together. One day he planned an “adventure” for us we were driving for hours and hours just talking. I thought we were lost if I hadn’t figured out we had no particular destination.

We ended up at the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina. We spent all weekend roaming around the beautiful parkways and mountains. We shopped, had picnics, and spent all of Sunday in the Bed and Breakfast appreciating each other’s scenery. He was perfect, thoughtful, and happier than I had ever seen any man; other than my father. The whole crew was getting closer and Momma loved every minute of it. I was still staying with Momma. She didn’t want to be all alone after having a house full all summer. I understood perfectly. Momma was so much fun you actually forgot she was our mother. It was like living in a fraternity house and she was the house mother that saw no problem if grown folks partied. As long as they cleaned up their mess. We all chipped in and painted the kitchen and the living room in Momma’s house. I had to fight her tooth and nail to let me buy her new furniture. But after it arrived she was in love with it. I didn’t want to go back to New York so I paid a packing company to come in and pack up my apartment and ship it to me. Which I must admit I over paid tremendously for that convenience. I called Latonya and told her she could move into my studio apartment for the remaining of the year lease rent free. I knew she would appreciate it; she worked hard for me and I knew her living situation being a single mother was rough. My apartment was in a way safer neighborhood. Note to self: Call the complex and extend the lease for another year. She deserved it. No one but her had called to check on me during my stay in Georgia and it was looking to be a permanent move home.
