NO STRESS
Background song Katy Perry_Chained to the rhythm]
Are we crazy?
Living our live through a lens
Trapped in our white picket fence,like ornaments..
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable,we cannot see the trouble, trouble
Aren't you lonely? Up there in utopia... Where nothing will ever be enough... Happy numb
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable,we cannot see the trouble, trouble
That song playing on the radio graced my morning as I rolled to face the ceiling smiling.
Aha..
So put your rose_ colored glasses on and party on.
Turn it up, it's you favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
"Good morning beautiful" I said loudly to myself.
Looking at the mirror, I stood up from my bed to brush my teeth,shaking my hips to the rhythm of the music that started my day.
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie,yeah
We think we're free(aha)
I poured the wasted product of toothpaste in my mouth to voice out the remaining part of the song before I get dressed for my morning walk out.
"Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm!!!"
I felt so good this morning, it came with no stress, no stress at all.
"It's a beautiful morning baby," I said clearly to myself.
After our little chit chat with Genesis, I felt way better, I was ready to go and live,to breath again, to be free and walk down the street of New York City.
This morning came with its glory, I felt I needed some warm up to start my day, and get my mind off Armando and Marty's betrayal.
I was set to leave the house,it's 9:30am,and it was just me and Liya that was at home.
I was dressed in purple hoodie and black track pants, knotted my black afro hair into a beautiful bush that looked way too stylish for an early morning workout.
With my pink track shoe, I was ready to break some athletic records.
My phone in the right side of my pocket and my wireless headphones beeping red, I was set to jog away.
"Good morning Jay," Liya greeted as I closed the door to my room behind me, walking down the stairs.
"Good morning baby sister" I wonder how she managed to look so slim and beautiful.
"Am not your baby sister!,jeezz!!" She resorts.
This only made me chuckle out of breath, I knew how much she hated me calling her that.
"Can I join you?" She asked, only then did I notice she was dressed for the morning warm too.
"Why not!, Just wondering what exactly you are trying to shade out, you are so slim already." I questioned.
She didn't say a word, making her way to fill the plastic bottle in her hand with coffee.
"Make that two please!" I shouted as I stepped out.
The sweet scent of the neighbor's garden hit me and the cold air caressing me.
I remember how much I loved to play outside so much.
"Haaa!" I let out a sigh.
"Shall we?" The voice from my back.
"Yes! Please" collecting my plastic bottle full of coffee.
Liya was fast to leave me behind, she was jogging in front of me with some good looking dude,she seemed pretty into him, I didn't bother to disturb.
Digging my hands down my right pocket to collect my phone and connect it to my headphones, I needed something to keep me company since Liya wasn't here.
Scrolling down my music, tapped on my favorite list, all I saw was Sam Smith and I guess I didn't want to listen to anything that comes from his lyrics,they only make me think about Armando and it hurts.
I tapped on my jam, played some but boom I tapped on the right one for this fast walk.
Highed the volume to the highest.
I was listening to Ariana Grande _ Bloodline.
"Because I'm trying to do the best I can
And they can't find something to satisfy me,ugh"
That part by Majorie Grande made me laugh, making me forget the fast walk.
Mmm,yeah,yuh
Even though you're bad for me, I know
You're the one that I'm thinking
Got me feeling so incredible
Would you mind maybe linking?.
The tone of the song got me really down to earth, feeling every word, I smiled , shaking my head to the beat of the song as I began to walk slowly.
Love me, love me, baby
Are you down? Can you let me know?
Love love, thank you, leave me
Put it down, then it's time to go
Get it like you love me
But you don't, boy, it's just got show
Take it or leave it, you gotta take it or leave it like uh....
I sang that out so loud, I don't know how loud I was but I allowed the song to take over my body and soul,my hips swinging from one space to another.
I felt like I heard my name but I was to consume with the song I had put on repeat.
Don't want you in my Bloodline, yeah
Just wanna have a good time, yeah
I rose my hands above my head to swing my hips not minding who was staring at me that moment, I heard my name but not so clearly, it sounded like Liya calling on me.
And no need to apologise, no
But you gon' have to let this shit go
Don't want you my bloodline,yeah
"Scrrrrr....." The sound of a vehicle hitting the tree next to me.
I hit my full weight on the floor,
My head hit on broad shoulders and on something really hard, I could feel a strong hand holding onto me firmly.
I couldn't see who it was, but my body recognized it, that scent ,my head felt like it belonged where it was.
I could feel my soul leaving my body,I couldn't move, I wanted to, but I couldn't.
I felt so light.
"Ahhh" my head was pounding and my vision blurry but I could see the manly figure calling my name.
"Don't die on me" I heard him say.
"Someone call an ambulance" he shouted.
"Armando..?" I managed to say as my hands reached out to touch his face but failed and fell back.
"Please don't die on me" he said but his voice was already fading out, from the background I could hear Liya crying and calling an ambulance.
Her hands held onto mine tightly.
My eyes failed me as they black out.
