Something scaly?

Several days after my sexual encounter with Carlos, I noticed a keloid- like thing on my neck. I put some over the counter cream to hoping it will disappear but to my shock, it doubled in size.

I went to the nearest dermatologist to have it checked. The doctor said that she never saw anything like this before. She collected some samples to have it checked and I had to wait for several days for the result.

I was worried and I could not think straight. I was thinking that I had skin cancer since I used to travel a lot without wearing sunblock.

Instead of going crazy while I wait for the doctor to call me, I went to Bella hoping she could give something for my skin problem.

" I only have 5 bars of this soap. I used calcified bones of a very rare reptile that can only be found in the jungle of Kazakhstan." she said

Emily: How much do I owe you?

Bella: Nothing

Emily: Please let me pay you. You have already given me so much. You had no idea how you helped me. I know this sound crazy but after using the oil, I became a new person. I did not do any exercise nor diet but as you can see I am slimmer now and I looked younger.

Bella smiled and said " Do good and good things will come back to you. Treat yourself with love and respect, you will glow because your spirit is happy. Do the opposite and expect chaos"

The moment I got home, I used the soap on my neck, hoping that it will do some magic and make that thing go away. I searched my drawer for turtle necks and high collared tops to cover myself. The last thing I needed was people staring at me with disgust on my first day of work tomorrow.

Carlos will be there but I will do my best to act like nothing happened between us. I will focus on my work and I will not let anything or anyone to distract me. I said to myself.
