Rally Cookies - Part 3 ( 3rd book in series)

Jerell Potts

***Refresher*** And with that, she stopped making eye 😤😤contact and faced forward looking out the window. It was hard to touch my own body🫠, I felt so ashamed because I knew it was all true. I ran away 🚣🏿from her because of fear. We gave each other so much and it was at a rich value and a low effort rate. It’s the type of love you wait for during this life. I constantly see people through my camera lens, hoping for some sort of radiant💡 story with their name at the top. This affection and attraction that can drive them into a new level of so...

Rally Cookies - Part 2 ( 3rd book in series)

Jerell Potts

Her voice was close and I wasn’t going to find it sitting down. It was coming from behind this wall with a rosewood door that had no handle. So I guess I should fill you in... Simone was from my hometown. She was always so different and earth-shattering, even when we were kids. She would draw all over herself, all of her fake tattoos. Until she got a shit ton of her own. She has one of a lion because I’ve called her Simba since we were thirteen. We even got one together. We went to the same college for the first year together. She tr...

Rally Cookies - Part 1 (3rd book in series )

Jerell Potts

“Sir. Excuse me, sir? Are you okay? You're just staring at your glove box. It also…uh… smells bad in here.”There is a large piece of stale air floating up to my face and past my mirror. It’s sinking into the fabric of my car seat cushions, I swear. Oh great, he’s giving me that face. The one that indicates my car is dirty as hell. I was zoning out for a minute. I forgot I even had someone in my car. This car wash detailer is gonna spew out all the detailing packages he can give me. And why not take the most advantage of me right now because ...

Don’t you remember by Pat Shandy was playing outside. It was my favorite song when I was in 5th grade. I nodded my head slightly and so did she.Then something happened?! She told me to wait here as she got dressed in the other room. She and her sister have a flare for saying things and then leaving. I wasn’t going to stay because that would be weird. So I would wait for her to come back out, say goodbye, and leave knowing I safely returned someone’s phone. Plan and process! I’ve been here for two hours talking ...

Honey Man Dan I’m always afraid to touch it. I’m always afraid until I lay a finger flat down on its wavy tube. Neon lights always looked like frozen glow-in-the-dark worms to me from when I was a kid. My mid-aisle seat 20s aren’t any different. I still tap this sign every time I pass it, almost expecting one to thaw out and crawl on me. I just knew it would jump on My hand, wrecking my scream record. Outward emotion came to me like a forgotten birthday–the planning part of it all wasn’t a quality that showed up for...

Darker Lipstick ( 1st book in series)

Submitted to Contest #142

If I rub my ruffled fingertips into the lining of my jacket one more time, the bartender will continue to make that face. That face that will expresses a lightning bolt of discomfort. His lips squirming with pre paid insults about me that only live in his head. Those awful slights would expand outwardly and grow fungus in the ears of his co-workers. But That would happen on my departure, he sadly would have to wait.Tapping my glass seemed pompous so I tried to say my drink order out loud . This part was a struggle for me, and clearly wasn’t ...
