"Ah, the ups and downs of a bisexual black man's life," Nasser Al-Harith said to himself as he got up and took one last look at his now ex-girlfriend Karma Armstrong. The six-foot-tall, curvaceous young Jamaican woman sat there, her eyes folded, a defiant look in her soulful brown eyes. Nasser sighed, cursing himself for thinking that a die-hard homophobe and religious nut like Karma could have accepted him for who and what he was....
"I'm a Jamaican woman, I can't share my bed with no batty man," Karma said bitterly, and her eyes blazed with anger. Nasser bit back a reply, and shrugged, then walked away. So much for honesty as the best policy, eh? In quick, easy strides, Nasser reached the escalators and headed for the lower level of the Bayshore Mall. All around him, people were shopping, and talking, and having a good time. My world just ended but it's just another day in the City of Ottawa, he thought bitterly.
Moving to the capital region of Canada from his hometown of Ocho Rios, Jamaica, seven years ago hadn't been easy. In those days, Nasser Al-Harith still went by his original name, Nathaniel Hawkins. Nasser remembered those heady, bright days, before life threw a double whammy at him. Firstly, he became aware of his bisexuality. Secondly, a spiritual awakening led him to leave his Roman Catholic faith for Islam, and to legally change his name to reflect his new identity as a Muslim.
Twenty years old at the time, he came to Ottawa to study civil engineering at Carleton University. Fast forward a few years, he graduated from his program with honors, and now did contract work for Von Engineering. In fact, he was taking care of things for them at Place De La Cite. These days, Nasser Al-Harith had a good job, and lived in a rented townhouse in the Jockvale area of Barrhaven, Ontario. Still, why have the perks and trappings of success if there was no one to share them with?
For the longest time, Nasser thought that someone might be Karma Armstrong. He met the six-foot-tall, curvaceous, gorgeously dark-skinned, dreadlocked sister with the thick ass while shopping for a new suit at the Saint Laurent Mall. As it turns out, Karma was there to buy a suit for her brother Lawrence, who was graduating from Algonquin College. From the moment Nasser first laid eyes on Karma, he knew she was special...
"I got a good feeling about you," Nasser said to a smiling Karma, after she gave him her digits. One thing led to another, and after coffee dates, movie dates, restaurants and long walks around shopping centers, Nasser and Karma officially became a couple. Nasser fell in love with Karma, the fearless Jamaican sister with the sassy mouth, and she appeared to be feeling the same way about him. Everything seemed to be falling into place...
"You are something else, my brotha," Karma said to Nasser, the first time they made love. Nasser took her back to his place, a cozy apartment in the South Keys Plaza area, and Karma reminded him, in the most pleasant way possible, why black women from the island of Jamaica are uniquely sensual. Nasser had trouble catching his breath after the sexual whammy Karma laid on him...
"Good to know," Nasser replied, and he kissed Karma's full, lovely lips, then took another look at her. The Afro-Caribbean goddess that lay in his arms was beyond sexy, with her full, lovely breasts, her curvy body, those thick thighs of hers, and that big round booty that he could probably rest a breakfast table on. Seriously, Karma's ass was that big, and Nasser couldn't get enough of it...
"Eat this ass, big man," Karma said as she got on all fours, and shook her big beautiful dark ass at him. Nasser grinned, and then did as he was told. Spreading Karma's thick ass cheeks wide open, he began eating her ass, loving the way it smelled and tasted. At the same time, Nasser fingered Karma's pussy, causing her to moan in pleasure. Nothing Nasser loved more than the black female form, and Karma's sinfully sexy and very voluptuous body was simply to die for...
"I can do this all day, sexy lady," Nasser paused to say, smacking Karma's ass as he resumed eating her out. Afterwards, he rolled a condom on his long and thick, dark dick and eased it into Karma's pussy. Gripping her long dreads, Nasser yanked Karma's head back and slapped her thick ass while slamming his dick into her pussy. He made her scream as he totally worked her ass over, and Karma cried out his name like a town crier making an official proclamation...
"You can really beat that pussy up, sexy man," Karma said, much later, as she lay against Nasser. Her gorgeous body was glistening with sweat, and she looked, smelled and tasted absolutely wonderful. Nasser licked beads of sweat off of Karma's forehead and then kissed her. There was absolutely nothing he wouldn't do for this woman, and he damn well knew it. Nasser loved Karma, and she seemed to love him. In those days, Nasser honestly thought that would be enough...
Although Nasser was well aware of his sexual attraction to both men and women, he stayed faithful to Karma. Walking around Ottawa with her, holding her hand as they went everywhere together, Nasser knew that he had a special woman in his life. And Karma seemed to appreciate him too. The foxy Jamaican gal often lamented about all the good-looking brothers with college degrees who were shacking up with white women left and right.
"You're one hell of a catch, Nasser, a good brother who still loves the sisters," Karma said to Nasser one night, during their trip to Montreal on Valentine's Day. Nasser looked at Karma and lovingly kissed her. He was thankful to have such an amazing woman in his life. They stayed at the Hyatt Regency hotel in downtown Montreal, and for the next couple of days, they shopped, ate fine food, watched movies, walked all over la belle province and made love...everywhere.
"How could it end up like this?" Nasser said to himself, as he reached the parking lot and got behind the wheels of his bright red, 2016 Rav4. As he began the long trek back to Barrhaven, Ontario, Nasser tried to forget Karma, but couldn't. So much for the future he had planned for the two of them. Karma was the woman Nasser saw himself having a family and growing old with. Oh, well. Fate had other plans, apparently...
A few days later, Nasser went to the monthly meeting of the Coming Out As Bisexual Support Group, which met at a certain locale in the By Ward Market. That afternoon, Nasser found the place a bit more packed than usual. The core of the group was made up of about eleven guys and four or five women. Nasser was usually the only black person, and the only other minorities were an Asian woman, and a young Latino guy.
