"Don't sacrifice your peace trying to point out someone's true colors."

Terrence Howard
POV

Monday 07: 12am

This in going bickering between Taraji and my mom is starting to annoy me,more so from my mom because she has a problem with Taraji and she doesn't even know her. Taraji has showed nothing but respect for her and if she doesn't change her attitude I will be forced to choose and without a doubt i will choose Taraji. Last night was just a disaster and Taraji is mad at me for not sticking up for her but I was wrong and I will apologise to my baby.

Brooklyn:Dad I'm gonna be late for school
Terrence:We'll leave just now,I just need to call somebody real quick
Brooklyn: she won't answer especially after what happened yesterday
Terrence:Let's go

Man if Taraji breaks things off with me because of this,I will never forgive my mother I swear! This is the first time I've ever felt this way  for someone in a long time and I really see a future with her

I drove Brook to school while still trying to call Taraji but she straight rejected my calls

Terrence:Baby lend me you phone for a sec
Brooklyn:No because she will lose the little trust she has in me. Dad you were wrong
Terrence:I know I was wrong
Brooklyn:No Dad you don't know,why do you let grandma dictate your relationship with her and why was Mom there yesterday? You allow her to be disrespected and expect her to smile.

Since when did my daughter become a relationship expert but she is right. I have to stand up for my lady

Terrence:I tried apologising yo her but she is ignoring my calls I don't know what to do
Brooklyn:Get her some flowers or chocolates and genuinely apologise Daddy










11:40am

I decided to take Brooks advice and apologise to my woman,I bought a bunch of flowers and a box of chocolates like she suggested I just hope my efforts work for me. I walked into Taraj's work place and went up to the reception.

Dinah:Good morning and how may I help you sir?
Terrence:Well I'm here for Ms Henson
Dinah:Do you have an appointment sir?
Terrence:No but I'm on of her investors and ...

Before I could finish my sentence a lady came by

Marlo:It's fine Dinah I'll take it from here. You can follow me Mr Howard

I knew it was Marlo Taraji's PA because I knew her voice from the time I was still working on Taraji's case,we walked into the elevator and she gave me a strange look

Marlo:investor my ass. The whole world knows you two are dating. I'm letting you up here because I like you
Terrence:Is she here?
Marlo:She has been locked up in her office since the morning.

The elevator stopped at the 9th floor guess that's where her office us at

Marlo:Go straight down and the last door you'll see her office

I walked down her office not without a few stares and whispering but I'm not here for that,I knocked in her door

Taraji:Marlo I told you I don't want any disturbance I'm busy
Terrence:It's not Marlo
Taraji:Oh my word! What are you doing here
Terrence:I came to apologise

She moved from her chair and closed the door  the preying eyes we were receiving

Taraji:You doing too much of apologise on your mother's behalf I see.
Terrence:Baby she was wrong and u should have spoken up yesterday I'm sorry. I bought you these

I pulled her to the couch so we could talk properly about this

Taraji:I don't care about flowers and chocolates Terrence, you let your mom disrespect me not once but twice and that's not acceptable because I'm in a relationship with you and not your mom ok
Terrence:I understand
Taraji:No you don't understand.  I'm compromising here,i said we moving to fast and I don't want people to know about our relationship but that happened because I truly want to be with you and the least you could do is keep your mom away from our business. Then she invites your ex wife I'm sorry to say this because she is Brooklyn's mom but she is a total bitch I've never even spoken to her but I'm used to that. Now it either you get your mom off our business or you and I are done
Terrence:I'll get her off our business now can I get a kiss from my woman?
Taraji:Not here
Terrence:Come over tonight
Taraji:Your mom still there
Terrence:Yes but...
Taraji:Just come over to my place then
Terrence:Okay you'll cook for me?
Taraji:I'll think about it,now leave I have a meeting in 15 minutes
Terrence:Okay I'll see you later then
Taraji:Bye







Taraji P Henson
POV

19:01pm

I was busy preparing dinner the one I promised Terrence and Marlo was passing thru to fetch some papers but we ended up chatting a bit,she is the ONLY friend I have after all.

Marlo:You and Terrence made up? 
Taraji:How did you know... Anyway we made up I guess
Marlo:Good because I'm rooting for ya'll,I see the flowers didn't go to waste too
Taraji:Yeah. Can I ask you something?
Marlo:Shoot
Taraji:How long does like a guy....
Marlo:Guy do what?
Taraji:Wait before you have sex?

I hope she doesn't find my question ridiculous.

Idris was the only guy I've ever been with so  I don't know how these things work

Marlo:You and home haven't hit the sheets yet? He must be gay
Taraji:Terrence is not gay! Marlo just advice me please because I don't know what to do
Marlo:Ya'll are gonna get there just go with the flow and let it happen naturally
Taraji:I want to let it happen naturally but I haven't had sex in 4 years and I'm tired of using my toys. I have a man now so
Marlo:You got it bad but tell him you want the dick and he will give you. He looks like he's packing anyway
Taraji:Why you looking down his pants
Marlo:He is still Terrence Howard
Taraji:Okay Marlo you can go now his car just parked
Marlo:Okay let me know if he gives it to you good in case you don't come in tomorrow

Marlo is just too much

I continued with setting the table and I could smell Terrence's cologne from the passage.

Terrence:Honey I'm home
Taraji:You stupid Terrence
Terrence:When you're my wife you'll be happy to hear that.
Taraji:Yeah right just sit your ass and let me feed you baby.


Terrence and I finished our food and watched a movie upstairs in my bedroom,i was trying to tell him something by us being on my bed and a bit tipsy from the the wine. I was laying on my back between his legs and he kept playing with my hair but I'll just ask him because I need some action so I flipped and I was almost on top of his dick

Taraji:Baby?
Terrence:Mhhh
Taraji:I want...uh
Terrence:What do you want baby?
Taraji:You
Terrence:But you have me
Taraji:I want us to have sex

I just said it real quick and closed my eyes,it's usually the guy who asks for sex but we are in a committed relationship so we have every right to have sex.

Terrence just looked at me and flipped us over so he was on top

Terrence:I'm glad you asked


This was just a filler but I'll update soon
