Debs and Kronazz's engagement party had come along nicely. It was beautifully decorated to depict the reason for the celebration. My eyes traveled the room taking in the opulence of the atmosphere.

The party was not yet fully on the way. Guests were still arriving and those on spot were enjoying the live band that was playing some mellow lovers' rock and sipping on their cocktail of choice.

I smile at the couple as they posed for pictures. Looking at them they made quite a pair. Their love was surely blossoming now that they have come to a mutual understanding of where they stood with each other.

Debbie looked beautiful in a white mesh bejeweled dress and Kronnaz complemented her well in white pants and shirt with a matching bejeweled jacket, looking at them I had to admit being in love with each other suited them well.

It was great to see my girl all sunshine and rainbow. To think of her losing Simone then almost fucking it all up with Kronazz and to be able to live her dream filled me with a deep sense of joy.

Gyal jealous n fufool fi she man, but which woman in love isn't?

I grin as I watch her pull Kronazz to the artistically designed backdrop of white curtains expertly inlaid and labeled with Merrily Yours bracket by a garland of flowers. In front of it were daisies in victorian vases and candles in glass holders on gold cylindrical stands that bordered a light blue padded seat on which she promptly sat and posed seductively for more photos with her man.

Mah bahitch was making the most of her night.

When she was through she sashayed over to me leaving Kronazz to join in with a group of male friends who from their actions were ribbing him playfully.

I felt my smile slip a bit as I thought of Maleek and Patrice who should have been here and partaking in the festivities. It had me letting out a heavy sigh.

I wanted this for my girl and Maleek. I truly hope our feeble attempt to get them together proves to be fruitful.

"Yuh feel seh wi duh d right ting?" Debbie ask softly as she nestled into my side knowing what was weighing on my mind.

"We done duh it already Debs suh relax n enjoy yuh engagement party."

"Probably wi fi tell Medz fi nuh badda guh a d hotel fi d---"

"Mi swear to God if yuh nuh stop mi a guh strangle yuh before yuh n Kronazz mek e dung the aisle."

Debbie knows when to call it quits with me so she moved slightly away from my side her eyes wandering to the door. There was no sight of Patrice and Maleek there and I hope they would not arrive any time soon and defeat the purpose of our plan.

She sighed and look around at the array of matching couples displaying their colors in fancy attire.  Her scowl deepen and I figure she was inwardly fighting with the pro and cons of what we had transpired to get our friends back together.

I knew she was not too keen on knowing Maleek and Patrice were probably going to have her head for purposely color-coding them but something had to be done to open them up to what they are denying themselves.

Debbie who had recently been on the receiving end of her relationship breaking up knew how it felt to have the person you love heart, body, and soul at odd ends with you. I too have been there and it was not a place you were keen on staying.

As the minutes tick away I know she was thinking we probably should have found some other way of setting up Medz and Peggy to lessen the bitter, heartbreaking distance between them, but it was already done.

But with the two being so stubborn all simple attempt was a waste, and as they say...

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

They had come to mean so much to us and to see what being apart from each other was causing them we came on board with Kronazz to get them back together.

A few days ago Kronazz had voiced his concern about Medz's intense and long hours in the studio recording one new artist after the other or producing tracks for a few fellow producers who were too booked to handle the workload.

It sounded like a good plan when Kronazz insisted we try to bring our friends back together. They both were being torn apart because circumstances had twisted their judgments and it was not fair to them.

As much as I was pissed that Medz had not stepped up when I had told him to I owed it to Patrice to ensure I helped her clear the debris of the aftermath of the storm that ripped them apart.

I glanced at my watch and figured that Medz must be at the hotel by now. I had purposefully asked my children's father to drop off Kronazz and Debz's gift at Medz hotel giving them this time to tackle the unfortunate circumstance that keeps pushing them apart, but knowing how stubborn Medz was and Pat being so keen to run away I was afraid it might all be in vain.

The sound of my phone vibrating cause me to pull myself from my brooding.

It was a message from Patrice.

pคtri¢ē
Thanks very much.

The sarcasm did not pass me and being tired of the cat-and-mouse between her and Medz I typed in return.

It took a short while before a response came and it seemed like forever before the single response came.

Another few seconds pass until another text followed.

pคtri¢ē

ռɨӄӄɨ
Yes we, we your friends. Now don't come back yah until yuh work out unuh indifferences.

Peggy, Debs, and I have been friends for the latter part of fifteen years. We have been through each other's up and downs, heartaches, trials, and all the shit you can name that life throws at you. It would be a shame if we saw our girl fighting this raging storm and sit quietly by.

I only hope she and Medz made it here tonight as a couple or I was going to personally kill their asses and dump them in the Mud Lake by Winston Jones Highway.

I truly hope they come to realize though the storm might have disrupted their life it was only clearing a path for them to see where they are heading.

I work too hard for Medz and Patrice to be together to see them throw this precious love I know they had for each other.

I was their cupid and now I was their flipping lifeguard I just wish they would stop letting the storm get the best of them.

"Ok peeps let's give it up for our couple of the evening the future Mr and Mrs..."

My mind was pulled back to my current surrounding as the MC of the night began to chair the night plan events.

I only hope our plans falls in place or better yet set things in motion.
