Fiction: Tall, Dark & Rich

Posted on 9th July 20189th July 2018 by Mayuri

He sits there, cool and collected and looking down at me haughtily. Each time I come face to face with him I am reduced to mush. I remember the wonderful times we spent with each other and the high his company gave me.

Spotting him once again I bite my lips and avert my eyes, lest he see the desire in them.

I am a nervous wreck each time I come face to face with him, a gawking, bumbling fool. I fear coming across him, as much as I look forward to, for I lose control over my actions when I do.

It’s been a while. Days have passed. Nerve wracking seconds, hours, days and I still hate the way the thought of him makes me feel.

I shouldn’t feel the way I do, I tell myself.

I am strong, I love myself and I can stand up for myself. And I will. I convince myself with this everyday till I finally gather the courage to face him without flinching.

The next day I open the fridge and take the giant bar of chocolate from under the packets I had pushed it behind and place it right in front where I could meet its eye each time I open the refrigerator door.

It has been tormenting me so, but no more. I show him who is the boss and I look it in the eye and face it, as I reach out for some corn, cocking a snook at it before I shut the refrigerator door.

I am on a 21 Day No Sugar Challenge and no one can stop me from acing it.

I started a 21 Day No Sugar Challenge a fortnight ago. Today is my 15th Day on it. I didn’t think I could have done it, knowing my addiction to all things sweet, but I persisted , gritting my teeth in the face of temptation and finding humour to cope with tough times. This piece of fiction is just one attempt at humour as I resisted a giant bar of chocolate i had bought myself just before the challenge.

    Don’t give in ! Resist! You can do it. I tried but gave up within a day. Just missed my hot, cup of sweet coffee in this wet weather. BTW I can’t access your #FFF prompt. Are you still hosting it?

    hehe You know when I started reading it, I understood it was sugar. I guess reading your daily updates helped along. Kudos by the way! I can imagine how tough it must be taking up this challenge, and I am rooting for you to complete it with a flourish.

    I knew what the post was about since I follow you on Insta 😀

    You’ll ace this challenge I’m sure, I’m rooting for you! I’m not a fan of sweets but once in a while as and when it is available I do eat a tiny amount. I’m looking forward to let that go too.

    You are doing fabulously with the no sugar challenge, kudos!
    I’m inspired to give it a go, but keep failing miserably.
    This one was wicked!

    Hahaha…. Dark, handsome chocolate bar.
    You have taken this challenge and inspired some like me 😉 keeping off sweet is at times very tricky. Especially when you see drool worthy food stuff. But you are ding great Mayuri, keep going.
