CHAPTER 20: 2 MEN

Cynthia laid in bed surfing the internet. The past couple days have become hectic with Adrian on her neck, Jason nowhere to be found and Jackson relaxing her mind about helping her.

She switched between Instagram to Twitter, finding her way straight to the 'trends for you'.

She sat up straight and looked twice. Jason Pierce caught her attention, he was trending on twitter.

She quickly clicked on one of the posts and rushed to the media section.

The caption read: 'Can't believe I'm seeing Jason Pierce in person. I'm so excited.'

A picture was attached to the post. Jason was smiling in the picture, his hair was packed and he was talking to a waitress.

Another one read: 'Jason Pierce in Bana, this is so good to be true.'

She got off twitter and rang Jackson up immediately.

"This better be good, woman," he spoke into the phone immediately.

"I found where Jason is. He's in Bana."

"That's good. Leave the rest for me, I'll handle it," the call dropped and Cynthia heaved a s

    He tried touching her but she flinched, scared of what he might do to her."Hey Cara, it's me. It's me Jason, I would never hurt you, I swear," his voice became gentle as much as it could."W-Where's my son? Where's Mason?" She turned around frantically, searching all over the room."He pushed my baby away, he kicked him," she continued with whimpers in her voice. "Where's Mason?" Her voice raised a notch.Jason tried to soothe her but it wasn't doing the trick. "Mason is fine, Mason is fine, believe me Cara. I'm so sorry I let this happen to you.""Bring him to me, let me see him. I want to see him."Jason, seeing that she wouldn't let him touch her until she sees her son, rushed out to get Mason from the car.On sighting her son, she sprinted and grabbed onto him tight.Her left eye was swollen and red, the flesh around it covered up the eye, making it difficult for her to see clearly.She wrapped him in her embrace, crying."I'm so sorry baby, mummy is so sorry that she let this ha

    Jason walked into his hotel room in the early hours of the morning, tired and confused. He fell to the bed without flipping the light switch on.It's been less than a week or more since he left New York, his mind drifting to Alexander. How happy will he be knowing his daughter is well, literally not well but close enough.He picked his phone up and called him."Sir Alexander, good morning. Sorry to have woken you up," he said.The gruffly voice of Alexander echoed into the phone. "What do you want, Jason?""I just thought to check on you and also talk to you about Cara.""Easy there child, stay away from Cara. If you ever see her, stay away from her life."Jason dropped the phone to his line of sight."Sir? What do you mean? I promised to find her for you and-""My child wouldn't want to be with a married man, if you will excuse me, I need to go back to sleep."Jason sighed, thinking about what just happened. He had no idea various posts about him had blown social media up.The only p

    Amber took a break from work, calling in sick. She stayed with Cara throughout the day, trying to make her laugh and play. Cara would flinch unconsciously without anyone touching her. She would mumble in her sleep, sometimes crying out loud. Amber watched her friend suffer from trauma, there was little to nothing that she could do."Come on Cara, remember our favorite TV show? Keeping up with the Kardashians? It's going on right now, let's go."She looked at Amber, the swells on her face were reducing and her bruises healed fast."Where's Jason?" She spoke up after a long time. "I want to see him. He saved my life, saved me from that monster."Jason had texted Amber on his way back to New York, explaining all that transpired. He begged her not to tell Cara about him leaving."Jason went for some work, he promised to be back as soon as possible.""You are lying Amber, he has left again, right?" Tears formed in her eyes, ready to unleash the dam in her eyes.Amber warmed her up in her e

And when suddenly, they heard Jason and Cara got married, their heart knew no bounds. The sudden wedding was alarming and they didn't get angry, instead they were fulfilled.Now it was all him, left alone with no child to call his one.

    Alexander packed a small bag, he hoped to spend at least 3 days with Cara before coming back to New York. The surprise swelling in his heart just to see his girl radiated throughout his entire body.His face beamed up and his appetite was really low. Ethan walked up behind him."Sir, what would you like to have for breakfast? I can tell the cook to prepare it as soon as possible.""You don't have to worry about that Ethan, I just need to step out real quick. I wouldn't be long," he said, thinking about the discussion he had with Jason a few days ago.Ethan sighted the bag behind him, just before he could hide it."Are you traveling sir?""Not at all, I just need to drop this bag with someone, right across the street.""Do you need me to go instead? You could rest, I would go in, your place," Ethan pressed further.He placed his hands on Ethan's shoulders."It's fine Ethan, I can go myself. I just need to stretch my body, and take a walk.

    The gentle breeze of Bana smooched Alexander's soft skin. He inhaled the pure air that smelt like a combination of cinnamon mixed with nutmeg. People minded their business and helped others the way they could, it was really a small town.The word a younger Cara used to say started to live rent free. She would always say, 'one day papa, we would leave New York. We would go to a place where few people know us, where everybody knows everyone and we would live happily ever just like in my cartoons'. It really looked like the kind of environment she wished for.He threw the long handle of his bag across his shoulder, as the airport gate went open for arrival, he sighted a well suited man holding a placard, on it was his name.He found his way to him and dropped his nose mask, extending his hand out for a handshake. "You are my ride?""Yes sir," the driver bowed first, then accepted his handshake. "Sir Jason asked me to drop you home, he gave me your address.""Oh," that was the only thing

    The text staring in front of Jackson's eyes felt so unreal. He pushed Cynthia aside gently, pulling his trousers up.Cynthia had questioning looks in her eyes, she stared at the man who just stopped in the middle of pleasure."What's going on," she asked after he wouldn't say a word to her."Something big, something huge," he lifted her from the floor, gently. "Come by the house later, we will finish what we started."He kissed her aggressively, pouring his lust into the kiss. He knew if they continued, they would make out right there in the office.He stopped it before it could go any further."Can't I at least know what's going on?" Cynthia asked."It's a men's thing, you don't have to worry about it."Cynthia's determination to figure out what was going on heightened. Asking again will have Jackson get pissed at her and find a way to block whatever loophole that might be open."Sure, no problem. I'll come by at 5pm, you should be home by then. Right?""I'll be home, just drop by."

    Like a set of children being scolded, 3 of them stood in front of a grumpy Amber. Evan was so relieved that she had calmed down a bit but he could still see through her how much she boiled.Her scratchy voice filled the air, turning her attention towards the man who unfortunately witnessed the first phase.“What part of getting out did you miss previously?”“I'm sorry I can't leave you all by yourself,” Evans said, taking a step further. Her bloodshot eyes stopped him from taking another one.She scoffed, rolling her eyes and adjusting her head on the pillow. “Funny how you can't leave me now when that was literally all you did.”He knew that no matter the words he said would suffice her. All he had to do was keep quiet and think carefully about choosing his words well.“This is not a fair attitude to any of us,” Cara spoke up, angry and irritated about her present attitude.Amber raised her head gently and fired her a deadly look. “You always had everything you wanted. Did I ask you

    Trying to adjust her eyes to the bright white light shining proved a lot more difficult than she thought. She let out a soft groan and turned her head over to the other side, various tubes and wires were plugged in her head. Her head banged, but not as much as when you had too much to drink.Her leg hit something, she looked down and saw someone sleeping with their head on the bed.Her constant movement had him wake up. “Amber,” Evans rushed to her, checking her face to see if she was alright.Not giving him a response, he pressed the button above her bed. There was no way he was leaving her sight.The nurses entered almost immediately and examined her. “She's fine but we will need her to rest well in order to recuperate her lost energy. And we will be placing a closer look on her, you have nothing to worry about Mr Evans.”“Thank you so much nurse, thank you,” he kept repeating till she was out of sight.Still not saying a word, Amber looked at him like he had suddenly grown 2 heads.

    Concealing her identity with a woolly scarf over her head, a nose mask on her face and sunglasses, she walked out the door past 5. She helped lock the door and kept Stacey's keys where it was supposed to be. She was done for good with her, nothing could bring her back and she hoped there would be nothing of such.She flagged down a cab and gave directions to the house Adrian left in her name. An old place to start a new life.“Isn't it weird to be dressed that way by this time of the day?” The cab driver said, trying to initiate a conversation.Her lips twisted to the itself, giving the impression of being irritated. She lowered the sunglasses a bit and looked in the overhead mirror. “You have a problem with how I dress?”Taken aback by her response, he tried to manage the situation by laughing. “Not at all madam, I'm just trying to start up a conversation with you. That's what I do with every one of my passengers in order to make everywhere lively and possibly get to know them better

    The past 2-3 days in solitude have been worse for Cynthia. She barely talked, still in shock of how dumb she could be. How she didn't let herself read the handwriting on the wall because she believed that Jason would do anything his father wanted. But he had proven to her that he was smarter than all of them. And the only man who ever gave her a chance even though they were both in the wrong, was someone she just unalived. No matter the bad blood between Jason and his father before he died, Jason wasn't going to let this slide. He would make sure to find her till his last days on earth.The time Stacey gave her to vacate her house was drawing closer. In a bid to save her own head too, she had to find a place to live. A secluded place.She had never been fair to Stacey when she thought she had everything at her beck and call but now she understood if she didn't want to accommodate a murderer in the house.The door went open, jolting her out of her bickering.

    Evans rushed towards the doctor going in the opposite direction. He had been in the clinic for the past 2 days with no sign of Amber waking up. Worried he decided to go make more enquiries and not wallow in assumptions.“Hey doc, good morning,” all his words rushed out in one breath. “It's about the lady in the VIP room. What's going on? I can barely see any changes in her.”“You have nothing to worry about Mr Evans. We sedated her and she not waking up is still within the time range of her sedation. If it's beyond 5 days and she's not up, then we'll know when to come in.”“5 days is a lot of time for beating myself up. Is there anything I can do prior to then?”Sensing his frustration and guilt, he decided to ease his burden.“We had to do that because of the amount of blood she lost. Luckily she was brought in in time and we had to do a blood transfusion on her. Just give her enough time to recover, everything will be fine Mr Evans.”Without a second word, he walked away, leaving Ev

    The entire time Amber laid there with various tubes attached to her felt like an eternity to Evans. Cara had taken an excuse to pick Mason up from school while Jason left to clear Evans’ work up. His hand trembled badly as he held on to Amber's. Holding his tears back, he exhaled loudly.“I'm so sorry baby, I'm so sorry,” he kept muttering underneath his breath. “I had no idea I meant that much to you. You shouldn't have gone this far to prove that to me.”His phone rang, diverting his attention away from her. The caller ID had his face rumpled up. The bastard had the right to be calling him even when the love of his life was right beside him struggling for her life.On second thought, he decided to pick up, to hear what he had to say.“John,” he called out on the first pick. “It's been a while, how can I help you?”“Evan, my man,” the excitement in his voice couldn't go unnoticed and he wondered what he had to say.He was desperately trying to keep his anger under the radar and if he

    Not having so much to do and with her son in school, Cara grabbed her phone and decided to say hi to her friend. It's been a while since she showed up at her father's house and saw Amber, not after that incident with Evans. She wondered what he was going to do about it. The company was moving fine and her father's employees were just as loyal to her as they were to him. Deciding not to take any car, she hailed a cab and wondered who to visit first. Evans or Amber?Settling for the latter choice, she gave the address to her father's house. Amber had never called since then and she too was busy trying to get Jason out of his worried state. He feared so much about Cynthia being on the run, worried that she would come after her and Mason. “We are here ma'am,” the cab driver infiltrated her thoughts.“Thank you so much,” she alighted and paid, walking straight to the gate. She pushed the gate open, hoping it was unlocked. Disappointed, she brought out her key and inserted it into the key

    Jason ruffled his hair and sighed in frustration, the clicking of the keyboard pads intensified. This action drew the attention of Cara who was seated on the couch, watching a movie. She paused her movie and carefully stood up without making a sound. Her hands found his way to his shoulders, gently massaging him.He threw his head back and sighed in relief. Her hands continued all the way from his shoulders to his neck, gently applying pressure on it.“Do you want to talk about it?” She said, “you know I listen pretty well.”His eyes were closed, feeling relaxed under her touch. “It's not something you should worry yourself about.”“Is it about Cynthia? Still no sign of her?”“Hmmmmmm,” he nodded his head and sat straight.She took a seat beside him and held his hands together. “Why don't you leave it to the police to find her? You worry too much Jason.”“I do not worry for myself babe, I worry for you and Mason. She's a crazy woman who would do anything to get what she wants. She can

    Cynthia rushed into the house while the cab driver waited outside wondering what was happening. Her hands trembled badly and blood dripped from her wounds. Her hair was messed up and her makeup didn't make it look easy too. Everything was worse.For a moment, she ignored the pain coursing through her veins. She sat on the carpeted floor and weeped her eyes out.Jason had proven that he was smarter than her. The signs were there, she just ignored them. Like the time he got home before her accusing her of having an affair with his father. All these while he knew but he chose to keep mute because of the things he had in mind.He didn't even care to know the type of underwear she had or how big her breasts were. For a man that was once a womanizer, she really messed up. But that was no time to start counting back or reflecting on the past, she needed to get out before Jason came back.She dropped her box from the top of the shelf and filled them with her clothes roughly, no time to start
