"ing" at the end of sentence...like "They wanted to tell me what they were thinking."

1. "They wanted to tell me what they were thinking." 
     "You te vle di m sa yo t'ap panse."

 2. She was just sitting there crying.
    Li te jis chita la, ap kriye.

 3. I'm thinking of you.
    M'ap panse ak ou.

    Wait wait... I can use "ak" like:

    "M'ap panse ak ou"? (thinking 'about' you)

    Is this more natural than...

    "M'ap panse sou ou" or "M'ap panse osije ou" ?

      Yes, it is (more natural).

      But you can say:
      Panse m sou ou.
      Lide m sou.
      I'm thinking of you.

      Depi maten lide m sou ou.
      I've been thinking of you since this morning.

      Depi lotrejou panse m sou timoun yo.
      Since the other day I've been thinking of the kids.

      Also: "panse m frape sou ou", or "lide'm frape sou ou"
      Chak fwa lide m frape sou ou, m santi m kontan
      Every time I think of you I feel happy.
