Summer 2005; Words by Urban Diva

What happens when an educated sista looks for love in the urban jungle? Follow Olivia’s experiences in love, lust and life…

Olivia returns home to her condo feeling exhausted. She attempts to remind herself that she only needs to put up with her current job for another month. After that she will be working for herself. Nothing like being your own boss, she couldn’t wait but today she was feeling completely overwhelmed. Her boss dropped 3 reports on her that needed to be completed by the end of the week. Today is Wednesday. That and the fact that she hasn’t spoken to her boyfriend in close to a week has her completely stressed. How long can you go on saying you are involved with a person when you never see or speak to them, she pondered as she dropped her clothes in a pile as she prepared to wash off all of the days stresses in a warm shower before cooking dinner for one and getting into the reports due Friday that would not leave her in peace.

Just as she is about to step into the shower the phone rings. Olivia stops and if someone was standing there they would see the contemplation on her face of whether or not to answer it….”Fukc it”, she says running out of the bathroom to catch the phone on the third ring. She had left Maxwell a message asking him to call her and maybe he would finally remember that no matter how busy he is his girlfriend deserved some attention. Olivia was getting tired of him using his job as an excuse. She found excuses to be tools of the weak and incompetent & didn’t get how he could be too busy to see her but find time to plan trips with his friends. Whatever, maybe he’s finally coming around she thinks as she answers the phone…”Hel-lo”

“Hey Ollie, how you doing ma?” says a voice straight out of her past. “H-hi Dante. How you doing luv?” Olivia answers wondering what he could want when they haven’t spoken in a year. Olivia deleted Dante from her penis in a jar list when he chose the white chick to be his new girlfriend despite the fact that they had been sleeping together for over a year. Some things a sister just can’t get over. She had been bitter after they stopped seeing each other. Her friends would never know it but his choice did a number on Olivia’s self esteem. She questioned herself in so many ways and didn’t even open herself up for another relationship until Maxwell entered her life 6 moths ago. Now here Dante was on her phone as if nothing had happened between them. Of course she knew that he recently started working in her neighborhood through mutual friends…but it wasn’t as if she looked for the information…people just told her these things…

“I was hoping that we could get together” said Dante snapping Olivia out of her walk down memory lane. “S-sure, i don’t see why not. That would be nice Dante. Give us a chance to catch up & stuff.” “Yea and stuff. I should be over in like 20 minutes. See you then,” says Dante hanging up before Olivia could tell him no.

Great, Olivia thinks to herself. Now not only do I have these reports to do but I have to entertain Dante. She finally remembers that the shower is running and she is standing there naked. Remembering that Dante is always prompt she knows she doesn’t even have time to take her shower. Olivia turns off the shower and is barely done finding the skirt she took off when she came home and a shirt to throw on when she hears the doorbell. The only thing about this man I could count on was his being on time, she thinks to herself as she goes to answer the door. “Ollie, you looking good” Dante says sweeping her into a hug and lifting her off of her feet.

“You do too” respnds Olivia giving him a once over. He still is attractive she thinks to herself inviting him in and remembering her manners she asks him if he wants a drink. He’s put on a lil bit of weight but it looks good. He’s cut his braids, not sure how if she likes it or not…

They walk into the kitchen and Olivia reaches into a cabinet to take out a glass to pour Dante’s drink into. Before she knows it Dante has taken the glass out of her hand and has lifted her onto the counter. “what are you doing?” asks Olivia.

“Just getting an afternoon snack” he responds lifting her skirt and ducking his head under it. Her panties are off in a second and Dante is hard at work reminding her why she was crazy about him in the first place. Olivia bites her lip not wanting him to know how good it is feeling. All of a sudden she giggles because she is reminded of the scene in the Uninvited Guest when Mekhi is eating out the woman in the kitchen. Dante takes the giggle to mean that she is having a great time and continues to lick and nibble making Olivia squirm.
