"Finally" Cynthia said as she stepped through the door
"What's up?"
"What are you doing with the vase?"
"You can't be too sure"
"You gat to be kidding me! Would a murderer be knocking on your door in full daylight?"
"You have to watch this Adam Lee lastest movie to see for yourself" I said while pointing at the TV screen
"That's a movie alexi. It's not always that smooth in real life"
"Aren't you supposed to still be at work?"
"Of course yes. I pretended to be sick so Ellen gave me permission to leave. I can't wait to hear the full story"
"You gat to be kidding me! You gat to be kidding me Cynthia. You left your work to listen to my last night story. I just wish I'm as lucky as you"
"Lucky in which aspect?"
"Both aspect. Work life, love life"
"Don't you have a boyfriend?"
"I thought I did but... I don't know"
"He must have been really good?" Cynthia whined
"Extremely good. He changed my view of life"
"Really?"
"Can you believe that I can't even touch Peter's dick!"
"Seriously! but when it comes to Peter, it shouldn't be a shock"
"And this guy made me do everything I wanted"
"You touched him?"
"I touched him. I licked him. I sucked him. He made me believe that porn is real. With Peter, he believed in something else. I hardly saw his dick. He made everything difficult"
"What is his name?"
"Not knowing his name made it more fun"
"Wooooow"
" He blew my mind away. What do you care for?" I asked while making my way to the fridge
"A diet Coke"
"And what?"
"Just the diet Coke"
I took out two diet Cokes and a chocolate candy for myself and made my way back to the living room
"Take"
"Okay thank you. Now tell me what really happened last night"
"I met him at the bar, we chatted for some minutes and I later followed him to his room. I actually didn't plan spending the night there but I slept off after the first round"
"Did he went down on you?"
"Of course! Of course he did" I said and thought about how it felt like to be sucked off "he put his mouth on me and fucked me with his long tongue. I almost came when I felt his mouth on my pus..." I stopped talking because I had the feelings that someone was at the front door and I was already reaching for the vase when Judith came in.
"I don't think I'm watching this new film if this is the side effect" Cynthia said
"Good evening" Judith said
"Good evening. Welcome back" Cynthia and I replied respectively
"Hope you fed Mama?"
"Of course I did. Why did you think I wouldn't feed him"
"Because you being you, you might not"
"Weird name for a weird dog" Cynthia said before taking another gulp of her drink.
"Thank you for the observation" Judith said sarcastically while I gave Cynthia the "don't say that" look
I hardly talked about Mama to anyone. Mama stays in his cage most time because the only person that would walk him was Judith.
"Your sister is so weird" Cynthia whispered to me
"I heard that" Judith replied
"You weren't supposed to"
"Then stop saying shit in my house. I named him Mama because he looks like a girl"
"Oh" Cynthia said with a not fully hiden sarcasm
"Stop it" I mouthed to Cynthia and played my movie which I have paused since Cynthia's arrival
"I think this is an indication that our discussion is over?" Cynthia said
"You guys can continue your discussion. I'm going to my room" Judith excused
"Next time" I mouthed to Cynthia. As if I was going to discuss such things while being under the same roof with Judith.
We both finished the episode and I escorted Cynthia to her car.
"I think you should try it again" Cynthia advised
"Maybe, if the guy is hot like that one"
"Okay. Bye"
"Bye and make sure to call me when you are home"
"Alright" Cynthia said and started the car "Alexi! what if the bad man is already waiting by my entrance" she whined and zoomed off before I could reply.
Two more days went by in a blur and on Thursday morning, I received the the usual message from the last company
'Dear Miss Tyler
We are sorry to inform you that...blah blah blah'
I sat in front of the TV with a full bowl of chocolate ice cream and discussed my life with myself.
"So in three words Alexi, you are jobless" I said with a mouthful "just accept it, you can't find a job in this city. This city isn't meant for you. You aren't good enough for this city. Is this how you are going to be forever. No job. No love life. No family but my sister. Nothing and nothing. You are just..."
My phone rang and I hung up without checking the caller
"You have never been anything good. You are nothing but a burden to Judith. You..."
My phone rang again, displaying Love on the screen and I made a mental note to change his name back to Peter.
I picked up on the fourth ring and made my voice as neutral as possible.
"Hi" I said
"Hello"
"What's up?"
"I'm cool, you?"
"Okay"
"I'm still at the office. So let me just go straight to the point. I'm thinking we should meet up if you're less busy tonight"
"I'm busy tonight"
"Lexi, I've not seen you in days"
"I know but I'm busy tonight"
"That was exactly what you said yesterday"
"Because I was!"
"I'm not saying you weren't Lexi. I'm just trying to understand what is going on. You've been acting strange since few days ago and I don't understand what I did wrong"
"I'm not just in the mood for a company Peter. You, I and Cynthia both graduated on the same day, you have a job, Cynthia does too but what can I say about myself, jobless, unemplo..."
"Lexi, I understand your pain. You know I will always be there for you no matter what. You pain is my pain and your joy is my joy. Let see tonight and talk about it. Should I still be expecting you?"
"Okay. Our usual time"
"Alright then. Love you"
"Bye"
Carmella Hart"Let me tell you something you won't believe" Lexi Ryan said with a sly smile "I and Casper fucked this morning while you're here""I know that is a lie""Of course you won't believe it. I already said you won't believe it" she shrugged "He fucked me inside that room I was given. He was so good. He was screaming the whole time" she whispered aloud"I know that Casper will never cheat on me"Lexi scoffed"And who do you think you're to him?""I'm his wife and the mother of his daughter. I'm not competing with you when it comes to Casper. I know that I am his number one priority""Keep bluffing""We both know that I'm not""KEEP BLUFFING!" she screamed and started hitting me "JUST KEEP BLUFFING! I'VE KNEW CASPER SINCE DIAPERS! I'M MEANT FOR HIM! I'M HIS WIFE!"About two minutes later, she stopped hitting me and said "I don't have more time to waste on a dead body"She opened her purse and brought out a short gun
Carmella HartI heard the sound of approaching high heels and I adjusted my sitting position. My mind was beating a million times per microseconds but I still tried to put on an hard face even though I was shaking insideFinally, the door opened and the person in the high heels stepped inside the room. The next second, the light bulb was turned on and when I saw the person that was standing in the middle of the room, my heart beat stopped racing and I said "How did you guys find me?""Carmmy Carmmy Carmella" Lexi Ryan sang "Urrrhggg, you look really pale""Come and help me out of this handcuff""I don't think that is a good idea" she said and smiled while rolling her eyes "I think you're cuter with the handcuff on""Lexi what are you doing?"She sat at the foot of the bed and looked at me hatefully"You still don't understand what is going on? You're a dummy""Lexi don't be like this""You should have stayed away from my man""Y
Lexi StokesJason tapped me and said "Your phone is ringing""Okay"I checked the caller, it was Cynthia"Hey Lexi" Cynthia said enthusiastically"Hey" I replied soberly"Will you be free tonight? Stud is planning to meet someone tonight in the city and I'm coming with him""Stud?" I asked with a frown"Oh, I meant Cheetah""Okay""So, are you free tonight?""No" I replied and sighed"Lexi are you okay?" Cynthia asked worriedly"No" I replied truthfully"What is wrong"I looked at Jason, he was listening attentively to our conversation, so, I got up and walked to the bedroom"The man I showed you this morning" I said after closing the door"Yes" Cynthia replied worriedly "Did something happened to him?""No but something happened to his wife""His wife? He is married?""He is married. This morning his wife was abducted""What!?""We were together and she walked out saying sh
Casper HartFive hours laterLike a joke, Carmmy's shopping had turned out into something else because her phone was found few blocks away from the mallI sighed heavily and looked at dad and Jason that were discussing the mystery some meters away from me"Casper, be calm she will soon be back" Lexi Ryan reassured me for the hundredth time"She won't. Don't tell me 'she will'. It's obvious she has been abducted""Casper""She is my everything" I said as tears rolled down my cheeks "and I don't have any idea what is going on with her right now""I'm sure she is okay""JUST STOP LEXI! JUST FUCKING STOP! IT'S NOT WORKING""I'm sorry" she said and left me to my pain"Mr Casper" the commissioner of police calledI raised up my head and looked at the commissioner of police. Dad had told him about I and Jason since the beginning of the search"Come with me"I got up and followed him to his office"Can you think of a
Casper HartFor the past two hours, Jason had been talking to me about some important things that I had to take note of as a Manager of one of the Stokes enterprise branches."As a manager..." He trailed off when my phone rang"Sorry""It's okay. Pick it"I checked the caller, it was Lexi. Lexi Ryan"I will soon be back" I said to Jason before heading to Lexi's room. I knocked twice but when there came no reply, I opened the door."Lexi what is wrong with you?" I said concernly and rushed toward her. She was shivering on her bed"Close...the...door" she said slowly"What is wrong with you!?""Cold...close...the...door""You need to see a doctor" I said as I was walking back to the door in order to close it"I know" she shivered "but for now...I don't want to"I walked back to the bed and sat down on it"You aren't looking good. You need to see a doctor" I said worriedly"Stay...next to me...and I will be...go
Lexi StokesOne week laterToday was Friday and we were still with Jason's parents because his mother wanted to spend sometime with all of us. The whole world was still clueless about what was going on and the news about Jason and his illegitimate daughter had been all over the world but everything was going to change before noon on MondayI moved closer to Jason who was deep asleep by my side and kissed him gently on his temple.I picked my phone and sent Cynthia a picture of Jason and Casper because I didn't want it to be news to her.'I don't understand the picture' she texted me back immediately 'The guy on the left is Casper, Jason's twin brother' I texted herMy phone rang immediately and I picked it up"OH MY GOD!" Cynthia screamed inside the receiver "YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW!"I slowly got out of the bed and went inside the restroom because I didn't want to wake Jason up with our conversation"Cynthia, I'm not" I
