The Perfect 10

The Perfect 10

I remember the day I met her; in fact, I remember the time, the place, and the weather on the day I laid eyes on her. It was 8:15pm on the nineteenth of January at my favorite sneaker boutique, and the rain was working overtime in the dark sky. Her frame was a canvas of beauty adorned with features that I only thought coexisted in my mind as the perfect girl. If she was not a perfect girl, then she was definitely the prototype. She was alone which I found farfetched, but it was her fancy anatomy that made one think that no man could afford her. Indeed, her time was money, so I paid her attention and in exchange, she coined my entire ensemble so well, I needed a receipt.

We left together only to be halted by the rain still hard at work, bathing the parking lot, roof tops, and people who forgot their umbrellas. The rain had transformed a meaningless stroll to the car into a mad dash to a vehicle that seemed further with every second the rainfall increased. We made it to the car and furthermore, to my home.

She was quiet but her body language made up for the silence. Without words, she touched my soul and in return, I touched hers, we were a perfect fit. When we would go out, she would compliment my attire, and people would praise us on how exquisite we looked together. It simply felt like walking on air when we were together. She had expressed to me that she had seen many girls like her stepped over mainly because of how they looked and that was why she stayed alone and did not prefer large crowds of people. Her image was all that she had. What I wore when I was with her determined how well she looked in public so she stayed on my heels about my image and how I had to maintain a certain level of style for her to be with me. How could I say no? I knew she was very materialistic, but I thought that we were the perfect pair.

All my friends liked her and people on the street would speak of her elegance and beauty. They would look at her the way I did when I first laid eyes on her. This did not anger me in the least capacity, in fact, I enjoyed every minute of it. She gave me a supreme level of confidence when I was with her, so much that I often thought that if I chose to walk on water, it wouldn’t feel much different from the wet pavement we scurried across on that rainy day when we first met. She wasn’t highly excitable, but she would become exceedingly high-strung when I would lace her with the finest threads. This made her seem to stand out when she was with me; she was a shoe-in for the center of attention. When she stood out, I did also, sometimes more than she did. It made her happy to know I was happy. She would kiss my feet and I would caress her tongue and touch her sole in ways no man ever could.

As time went by, I began to grow apart from her. The years had not been kind to her as she began to let herself go. When we were intimate, she would often make my toes curl and never in the good way most people would think of. She had aged much quicker then I had anticipated, but in the time we did spend together, I took great care of her. I was without a doubt the bigger person in the relationship for many reasons. I had grown out of her. I knew that being with her would only harm her but hurt me far worse than any pain I could withstand. I could feel the ache right down to my toes. Our relationship was good while it lasted, and she served her purpose in my life as I am sure I did in hers. It was the best relationship I had ever stepped foot into. She was the perfect ten, but I had grown to realize that I would need a ten and a half.

  14. 23edge says:

    xxCoreyxx good stuff
    But here’s my Perfect 10 story;
    She would start out like Alessandra Ambrosio
    I’d take graphic pictures of her and post them online like she’s Kim Kardashian
    I’d wear her and show her off like Beyonce
    Eventually her looks would start to fade on her like Jennifer Lopez
    So I’d start to beat her like Rihanna
    Cheat on her with others like she’s Halle Berry
    But in the end I’d always come back to her because she’s an ageless beauty like Mariah

    WOW, Thankx for the love!
    This piece was written to explain those
    situations/emotions you get into when
    meeting someone and/or buying kicks
    so it blurs the line between the two.

    absolute best for this piece (in my eyes)
    I had fun writing it and I hope you had the same reading.

  35. LMC says:

    Really good story
    .
    @ G-Roc, noticed something today that will piss off all US jordan heads, the True Blue III’s are currently on sale for £68 (about $111) in all Nike stores over here in the UK, would of probably sold out on release day in the US

  36. This is what I am talking about! The most beautiful things in this world is just like that! I get it I get it!! words from a old school rapper. Men have to dress for these kinds of women. Not to rock kicks and clothes for fellas. So a man can sweat another man? Who cares! To impress yourself first remember, it is for you. A female will recognize you for you not the material on your feet or clothes on your back. It is swagger like no other. It is confidence that mkes a person attractive. Money runs out billionaires and millionaires no more! This is a change of the world to change this hypocracy of thieves of top hats from a hard working man! But it all for your Ego and the Id. It is all for the beauty of fine materials and ladies! We only live once so enjoy life. Real talk NYC

  37. MelloYelloMD says:

    That was tight…especially in the end when you “outgrew” her lol classic! A++

  38. Jerronimo says:
