“Keith, congrats!" Hailey and Sunny cheered him up by inviting some of his friends to join them. He had finally graduated from high school and was about to begin college.
Goodbye, Tessy. He thought to himself as he posed for photos with his classmates and friends. He was planning to attend New Jersey City University. It was only a few minutes from home.He locked his gaze on Sunny, who was taking a photo with his sister. He'd had a crush on her for years but had been too shy to admit it. He did the most insane thing that came to mind at the time. He approached them and kissed Sunny as he drew her closer to him. He expected her to pull away and slap him, but instead she drew him closer and deepened the kiss, much to everyone's surprise.Hailey smirked. She knew they liked each other, but they were both too afraid to admit it.Sunny's face flushed as she broke off the kiss."Would you like to be my girlfriend?" He asked, waiting for her answer.“ Yes, oh my gosh yes Keith I will be your girlfriend,” she beamed with joy.He hugged her tight, swinging her in the process.“ Good riddance to bad rubbish!” Trash exclaimed, walking away in anger.~~“Heyyyyy, Freya." Zed happily sat down in front of her."Someone is in a good mood today, "Freya added, raising her eyebrows at him."Yeah, let's say I'm making progress with Soraya."" He explained."By warming her bed?” She made a lucky guess."And that, too." He winked at her as she smiled at him."Well, then, good luck." She smirked."Thank you, love, but you, my friend, need a man in your life." He explained."Well, that's not going to happen any time soon because the man I love is in love with someone else."She told him.“"Do I know who he is?" he inquired."You don't." Her phone rang, and she stammered awkwardly."How come the colors got mixed up?"“What happened, Mildred?" I picked them out for you, so how did the mix up happen? She inquired, irritated.“I gave them to the production team in the same way you did, but they came back mixed up." She elaborated."I see you outside my office, Mildred, come on in and give me a better explanation," Freya said, dropping the phone as Mildred entered with the faulty winter collection samples."What the hell is this? Who else was in charge of this?" She was enraged.“Cole did." She was referring to the head of the production team. Zed received a phone call from his boss and mouthed, "I gotta go," while gesturing to the phone in his hand. As he left her office, she nodded goodbye.“ Tell Cole to get his ass in my office this minute!” she yelled as Mildred rushed out to do what she was asked to do. Freya was a nice person but when she was mad, it was a different ball game altogether.“Cole, Freya needs you in her office as soon as possible "Mildred said as he turned off the television and walked into her office."Boss, you sent for me." He said as he walked into the office."What did you do to my winter collection?"She asked, showing him the shambles Mildred had brought into her office."That's not from the collection; it's something I was experimenting with." The collection is in my office." Cole explained."How come Mildred brought these to me?" She sighed, rubbing her forehead."I'm sure she was distracted." He chuckled as he walked out to get her designs and took the one she was holding.“ What the hell was all that about Cole? I almost lost my job there you dimwit!” Mildred insulted.“ It was a joke Mildred,” Cole shrugged it off smirking at her.“ To you it was, but to me it wasn’t. Never try that rubbish with me again,” she angrily stormed out of his office.“Should I let Cecelia Vega and her team in for the show, Ma'am?" Carla was curious."Certainly, Carla, and please take a sample of my collection from Cole." Carla left to do what she was told as they walked in."Are you ready, Ms Freya, for the show?" She inquired as the team assembled their gear."Cecelia, I am more than ready." She said as the makeup artists worked on her.“5..4..3..2..1."“Hello, this is Cecelia Vega, your host, and today's guest is Freya Grey, as promised. If you've noticed, I'm not in my studio, but rather in Freya's studio." As a few people cheered her up, she said. They had come with a special audience because Freya's studio couldn't accommodate the regular crowd."What's new for this season, Freya?"" Vega was curious."Well, I'm about to release my new winter collection 2020."" she stated" That's fantastic. We can't wait to see and try it for ourselves." Vega elaborated."However, I'm curious as to how a hot, successful, and powerful fashion icon can be single and I know I am not the only one dying to know why?" Vega asked.“Hmm, funny enough, I think the men are intimidated by my success and are unable to ask me out. For the time being, I'd prefer to remain single until I make a decision." She informed."Aww, dear young successful men, why?" She added emphatically."Any crushes?"" She enquired."Yes, but he's in love with another woman."She gave a painful smile."Wow, that's the worst kind imaginable, "Vega explained."Tell me about it." Freya rolled her eyes, making the audience laugh.“Perhaps there is someone out there for you, sweetheart "said Vega.“I’m not sure..." She began to stutter."Give yourself a chance; if you don't feel the same way about them, move on." She nodded."Thank you, Vega; I'll think about it." Freya grinned.“ My final question before I leave, does ‘the Soraya Wayne’ intimidate you in anyway?” Vega inquired.“ Soraya is a good business woman, no doubt. But we are in different industries. I’m doing great in mine and she’s doing well in hers. And no, she doesn’t intimidate me in any way at all,” Freya answered earning a round of applause from her audience.“ Would you call her a friend or a foe?” Vega continued.“ She’s neither. We both have our circle of friends and we aren’t in each other’s circle. Maybe an acquaintance.” Freya replied.“Thank you for making time to be on our show Freya, it was a wonderful opportunity. That’s it guys, this is Good morning America,” she ended the show.“That was a good show, Freya; even though it was on short notice, it was fun to be here "Vega explained."It's my pleasure, "Freya said as Vega and her team exited the company. Carla entered the office carrying samples of the collection she was talking about."Good show, boss." She congratulated him."Many thanks, dear." She smiled at her friend.Zed expected his sexual relationship with his boss to evolve into something more. He expected her to develop feelings for him as he did, but he was mistaken. Soraya was only interested in sex and nothing else. He was her latest conquest, and she only needed to satisfy herself. She treated him the same way she had always treated him. She was only really nice to him when she wanted sex or when she was done having sex with him. "Are you okay, loverboy?" As they went out for drinks, his friend Cody asked him. “Hm, I think Soraya is just taking advantage of me." He told his friend, who burst out laughing. "What did you think? She would love you, haha, you must be high on cheap drugs, man." Cody teased. "But we have sex together, so that should spark something between us," he kept going. "Man, the lady has a stone heart, and you're nothing more than her driver and sex buddy." You have to move on, Zed. Find a woman who will love you for you." Cody advised. “I don't want to rush
Ryan casually hangs out with Hailey and Sunny as well as Tessy. It didn’t bother Hailey and Sunny that much because he still hung out with them often. If he had shown interest in Tessy, they couldn’t stop him. She’s not that bad of a person. Her only problem was her sleeping around with guys. She wasn’t that clingy possessive girlfriend or wanna be girlfriend though she could be ‘extra’ sometimes.“"Hiya, Jackie," Jess said as her sister answered the phone. "Hey, Sis, how are you?" She replied. "Nothing special, just missing you, how's school?" She inquired. "I miss you as well, Sissy." "How are Ma and Zed?" She asked further"Ma is fine, her ankle has healed, and I haven't heard from Zed in a long time." She revealed.“I have some great news for you." She was ecstatic. "Spill then, "Jess said, plugging her earphones into her phone while fixing a client's hair. "I'm working with one of New York City's largest record labels, "Jackie made an announcement. "That's the best news I'
“He's nothing more than a sexual partner and my driver." As Zed entered the restaurant, Soraya brags to Nichole. "Seriously, Soraya, I thought we shared something stronger than that," Zed said, drawing the attention of others. "Please, I'm not falling for my driver. I just like your sex Zed, nothing more." She smirked. "Come off it, Soraya," Nichole said. "Shut up, Nichole; we all know you want him.You can have my sloppy seconds." She smiled.“You are a conceited jerk. I'm sorry I ever fell for you! Get yourself a new driver, or maybe Ace, he'd be happy to sleep with his boss and drive her around town." He stormed away. Onlookers had already recorded and uploaded videos of what had just inspired them. "Good riddance to bad rubbish," she said as she sipped her drink. "You are simply incredible." Nichole stormed out the door. Zed had already arrived at Soraya's house. He went into his room and began packing his belongings. He took one last look around before walking out. He walke
“I haven't heard from Zed in quite some time. "Is he all right?" Freya enquired of Carla. "Oh, you haven't heard?" Her pal inquired. She was working on a wedding gown for Theeya and her winter collection, which was about to be released to the public. "Haven’t you heard?" Carla showed her the video of Soraya yelling and disparaging him. "That b*tch!" She clenched her fist in rage."Zed was also at fault." Carla insisted. "He wasn't, he wasn't. He had fallen victim to love. He expected that having sex with her would make her fall in love with him, but it didn't." Freya took her seat. "However, but—-" Freya interrupted her. "Please, Carla!" She silenced her. "Can you tell me where he is right now?" She inquired. "No, you can call and ask where he is yourself, " Carla smirked as she walked away.After a long day at work, Zed parked his car in the garage and went into his apartment. He was tired of driving people around, but it was all worthwhile. He was paid well, even though it wa
Hails!" exclaimed Keith as he entered the house. "I'm in the kitchen!" She replied. Her parents returned for a few moments before departing on another business trip. It wasn't the first time, but all she wanted was for them to spend quality time with them like any other family would. I guess that won't happen anytime soon. She thought to herself as Keith entered the kitchen with a handsome young man. He stood 6'3" tall and had a broad chest and shoulders. He was a brunette, and he had a messy undercut. He wasn't too muscular, but well built.She felt her insides tickle when he smiled. "Hailey!" Keith exclaimed, startling her. "What?" She inquired as she checked to see if her mac and cheese was burning, but Sunny had already figured it out. "Stop obsessing over Lex!" He became more agitated. "What if I'm interested?" She found herself wondering "Whatever." He puffed and approached his girlfriend.“"Hey," Lex said for the first time since stepping in. "Hello, so you're Keith's r
Zed's coffee shop was packed with people ranging from shop attendants to CEOs of prestigious corporations. People began to notice his shop a few days ago, and it has been quite busy these days. Because of the cold, everyone wanted something warm to drink. Everyone was giddy with excitement as Christmas approached. "Can I get some black coffee, milk, and sugar?" Ace said this without looking up from his phone. "It's good to see you again, Ace." Zed drew his attention to him.“You've got to be kidding; from a driver to a cashier, I guess the heavens despise you Zed." He was joking. "I own this place, Ace, and I no longer have to work for a haughty woman." He spat. "Y-you what?" He couldn't believe his ears. "He's your coffee, and you're holding up the line." As Ace walked out, he smirked. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Zed continued his work. "It took you long enough," Soraya said as Ace entered the office."You won't believe who owns the newest coffee shop in town." He informed he
As she walked into her brother's apartment, Jess unlocked the door. She took a look around the house, which was neat and lovely. She dragged her bags to the room Zed had shown her. It appeared to be clean and comfortable. The walls were turquoise, with white floral designs on them. She closed the door behind her and began unpacking her belongings. This would be the start of a new chapter in her life. She did not close her salon; instead, she delegated management until she finished her studies.Freya was giddy with excitement as her workers moved up and down, making sure everything was in order for her launch. She always had the same giddy feeling when she was launching a new collection. "Is everything set?" Carla, who had just entered the office, was the one she asked. "Yes, boss." She replied curtly. "If there is nothing else to do, send everyone home to rest and prepare for the launch tonight." She gave directions. "Okay, and don't overthink it. Get enough rest. Everything wil
Soraya walked into Zed's coffee shop, amazed at how well he had done for himself. "Ma'am, what can I get you?" The waitress enquired."Can I see your boss?" She asked to remove her sunglasses. "Sure." She told him as she walked into his office that she was going to call him. When Zed saw Soraya, he came to a halt. She was more beautiful than he remembered. "I see you've done well for yourself." She chuckled. "Yes, I have, and it is doing well. I'm about to open another one." He rolled his eyes at her. "By the way, what do you want here?" He was enraged as he remembered what she had done to him."I, er, just came around." She tried to apologize. "What a pitiful excuse for an apology. I have work to do, so please excuse yourself from the office." He said to her as she walked up to him and sat on his lap, her finger on his lips. She leaned in and kissed his lips. As much as he wanted to push her away, he missed her touch and her body. He led her to a room connected to his office.
