      Derek and Camella, A Homegirl Misled - Just Deirdre.

      On the starboard side of the cruise ship, Derek lay unconscious in a lifeboat for hours, unnoticed. Bleeding from the head, broken bones and left for dead. This moment should alter his life forever; now he had learned the hard way that there are choices and consequences with matters of the heart.

      Cruise day embarkation! Liquor in hand! Bon voyage Bitches! shouted Derek.

However, metrosexual, every article of clothing, and each accessory he wore, matched in color – from his wristwatch to his shoes.

      Derek introduced Camella to everyone. Camella, this Ginger, my big sis. And over there, is Clyde, her significant other. Next is my lovely niece, Tina, and you know Big Sam.

      Everyone greeted her, and although Camella did her best to pretend she was excited, underneath something was odd. Her face, her eyes, appeared to show signs of sadness mixed with anger. But no one dared ask her what was
