"I'm so glad you decided to stay longer!" Ariele smiled as she made breakfast.
Amber gave her a small smile "Yea Mecca really liked spending the night with Ivory. And you know she like being over here."
Ariele nodded "So what y'all up to today?"
"I guess once we finish breakfast and get ready, we're gonna go to Ivory's house to hang out. They having a cookout." Amber told her.
The two went quiet for a moment until Ariele broke the silence again.
"You spoke to Knowledge today?"
Amber slightly rolled her eyes, she was over him.
"Mm no."
"Hmm.." Ariele sounded causing Amber to roll her eyes again.
She didn't have time for anymore opinions.
"I just feel like you should talk to him again, you're quick to get on the defensive side and I think that causes the arguments."
"..So I'm the problem now?" Amber scrunched up her face as she tried to listen to her mom.
"Didn't say that Amber. See you just hear what you wanna hear sometimes."
"Okay ma.." Amber said as she heard feet coming towards them. "Mecca stop running in this house!"
Immediately, the noise quieted and Mecca appeared.
"Hi ma!"
"Hi Mecca." Amber laughed.
"I see Da." Mecca said with a wide smile.
"We'll call him once we finish eating, okay?"
This caused Mecca to frown. "No, I see da."
The doorbell rang as Amber scrolled on her phone.
"Okay Mecs.." Amber said as Mecca took a seat at the table.
"Amberrrrr!" She heard Chris call, causing her to let out a breath.
"Yes?" She answered, to get no response.
"Oh my gosh..." she mumbled before standing up and heading to the front.

She stopped in her tracks as reached the door, and saw Knowledge standing there.
The two stood there staring at each other until Chris cleared his throat.
"Y'all niggas weird." He chuckled before walking towards the kitchen.
Once he left, they still stood there as Amber refused to speak first.
Knowledge let out a breath.
"Amb.."
"I thought we talked about just popping up on each other." She said mugging him.
Knowledge smacked his lips.
"Come wimme."
Amber scrunched up her face "Come witchu where?"
"We bout to take a drive." He told her.
"Drive where? I haven't ate my breakfast.."
"Bruh stop playing, and just come on." He sighed.
Amber decided to let up on the attitude a little, and slid on her crocs that were at the door.
"Holon." She said turning around and heading into the kitchen.
"Ma can you keep an eye on Mecca for-"
"Yea, you go talk to that boy." Ariele said as she wrapped up two plates. "And take this."
Amber took the plates and grabbed some waters then headed back to the front door to see Knowledge was already waiting in a car.
________________
After driving around for a few minutes, Knowledge pulled into the parking lot of a park.
Since the weather was good, and not a lot of people -except a few people exercising - were in the park, they decided to get out and sit on some swings to eat.
"If we here for me to apologize, I'm not doing that anymore." Amber told him.
"I ain even tryna get into witchu, Amb. The truth is, I still got some shit to resolve regarding everything that went down wit Mecca. I was mad because I want to be able to be apart of every moment I can. You might just see it as dropping her off wit a 'babysitter' but it's bigger than that to me." He expressed.

Amber was always in awe of how he handled himself and his emotions when it came time for them to talk.
It disarmed her defensive instincts.
"I'm sorry Knowledge." She apologized. "And you're right that's how I saw it, but I see how you view it now. I'm really sorry."
Knowledge nodded as he opened his water bottle.
"I'm sorry too." He told her. "When you was apologizing, I just wasn't ready to hear allat and I kept shutting you down."
"It's okay." Amber said.
"We gotta get it together." He chuckled.
Amber cracked a smile "We do."
The two sat in silence to finish their breakfast, then stood up.
"Oh!" Amber exclaimed as Knowledge pulled her into a bone crushing hug.
"I missed yo pretty ass." He said smiling down at her.
A wide grin spread across her face as she hugged him back.
"I missed you too, you coming wit me and Mecs to the barbecue?"
"Yea, I was supposed to pop up on you there but I had to get that shit off my chest now." He joked.
"Mhmmm, take me back to my baby."
"Yes ma'am." He said as he led her to his rental car.

To live is to Dream (LitRPG; First Draft)
A new Power has come into the World and seeks to change it. Being on the last dregs of sanity and full of alcohol Daniel West receives an opportunity to seek revenge. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To live is to Dream is the second book of the Just a Dream series. You do not have to read the first to enjoy the second, but there will be recurring characters along the line. The first book features Mir, a man that dislikes how his current world appears and hence wants to change it. The second book will feature other people and how the changes implemented by Mir affect their lives. For those interested in my first book, it's easy to find it. Just beware that with the first book, it was my first time writing and there are a lot of grammar errors despite lots of editing, at least at the beginning of the book. The cover was done by Lmarief. I had requested something bizarre and she delivered. I have even used it as part of the story since her interpretation of my imagination was a bit different. Still, I loved it. As a thank you gift, I posted a link to her profile here for others who want a unique cover. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/220043

Dreamland
Dolores is a lucky girl with a high-level avatar in a very popular game. She did not level it up; she got it through some fortunate circumstances. She is not interested in fighting and levelling; all she wants is to have some fun and follow her own fantasies. If only there would not be all those idiots who intend to kill her, capture her, or simply use her. And those flaws in the game! Wait, what? Those pesky game characters now appear in the real world? And they can do magic? How did this happen? Adding to her troubles, her crush does not even look at her. As Dolores tries only to survive and hide between 'normal' people, she encounters stranger and stranger things that force her hand and, in the end, she has the answers to a lot of questions. It is a slow-developing story. I had a lot of fun writing it and hope to share it with you, dear reader if you also enjoy it. On the other hand, putting it in an acceptable form requires much work and energy. I intend to bring it to its end and not let it unfinished. I hate it when I encounter unfinished stories, so I understand the feeling. This is not a classical isekai story. There is travel between the two worlds, and the game world seems to be so very real... well, this is one plot of the story. This is not an MMORP game story. Part of the action happens inside a game world, but it is treated as a real world. Updates on a weekly basis, at least Monday and Friday, with additional bonus chapters as time and energy allow. Cover art: White Flower as A Dark Fairy by Darkrealmsmaiden Yolanda gracefully allowed me to use her dark fairy as cover. There are many more beautiful works of art to be discovered at her site: https://www.deviantart.com/darkrealmsmaiden Additional Grammar Trigger Warning: As a non-native speaker, I do my best. Unfortunately, this is not enough for people with a low tolerance for warped sentences and... they may want to skip the story :( Well, you have been warned :) I appreciate it when a reader points out a sentence that needs rework. That may spare a follow-up reader some pain and helps me understand where my English grammar problems are. * We thought we made the best game in Earth's history We thought we made the best interfaces ever seen We thought we made it - lifelike But it far exceeded our expectations. Dolores, I hope you're happy now. I hope you're alive now...
