I don't give empty threats

Jason POV

  "I miss you too, Mom" I said into the phone.

"C'mon Mom, I promise I will be home by weekend" I assured her for the second time, while fiddling with my car keys. "I will definitely..." I was saying but all of a sudden, someone bumped into me from my back, causing my cell phone to fell down and shattered on the floor.

Alright

Someone nose is getting broken tonight. I thought angrily.

I turned abruptly as anger laced through me.

Oh

A lady?

 "How dare you?" I roared and I could sense the fear in her eyes as her whole body vibrated.

How could she be so stupid?

"I didn't..mean..to.." She stuttered and I became more furious.

"Do you know what you just did?" I shot at her but she only stared down at her feet. "I am so sorry" She muttered and I scoffed.

"You are sorry? "

"Would your sorry fix this?" I asked her switching my gaze to where the phone was lying on the floor.

She was not saying anything, I leaned on my car as I watch her sobbed quietly.

F*ck!

I glanced behind her and saw the only person I detested the most in the large poster.

Hold on.. Was this the reason she bumped into me?

She technically bumped into me just because she was lost staring at Rodney picture?

If so, then she's gonna pay for this, I will surely have my revenge. I thought as I fumed inwardly.

"I will fix your phone" I heard her say- snapping me out of my thought and I frowned.

"How will you fix it ?" I asked her, trying to suppress my anger.

"And how will I get it back?" I added staring down at her naive face.

She was quiet again and I just huffed.

"Here" I said, stretching out my business card to her since she had refused to say something.

She glanced up to look at me in the face but quickly brought her face down as she collected it from me.

"I am giving you only three days, if you were unable to fix the phone in three days, then you would do anything I ask of you" I explained with a cold voice and she nodded curtly.

   "And don't even think of running from me, cause even if you run to the moon, i will definitely track you down" I added with clenched teeth and she froze.

Good

No one messes with me and go scot-free.

I stared at her for a long time hoping she understood all I just said cause I don't give empty threats.

After what seems like forever, I finally got behind the wheels and drove away.

   Would  life ever be fair enough for me?

I thought as I walk slowly to my home.

How do I get to repair this phone? I asked myself staring down at the phone in my hand.

It was obvious the owner is wealthy enough to have twenty pieces of this phone.

But why can't he just let this go? I thought, sadly.

I got home and went straight into my bedroom.

I sank on my bed and sighed frustratedly.

I was starving but with the sombre mood I was, I didn't think nothing would taste in my mouth. So I just lay on my bed, staring blankly at the white ceiling above.

My father was financially stable enough to sponsor me throughout my education.

But No.

He's bent on making me suffer.

He would even collect my salary and savings from me most times.

God,

please help me. I prayed.

Mother, I don't know you.

I don't recognize you but I am very sure you know me very well cause you gave birth to me.

Wherever you are right now, you could see I am suffering badly. Help your daughter Mom, I don't want to give up on life so soon.

I pleaded weeping, uncontrollably.

 

Rodney POV

"Here's your script, Mr Rodney" The director said as he proffered the script to me.

"Thanks" I replied as i collected it from him.

"Please I would like you to focus more..." He was saying but was interrupted.

"Rodney" I heard and we both turned to look at the caller.

Joanna?

She smiled lovingly at me as she catwalks to where I was standing with the director beside me.

What's she doing here?

"Hi Rodney" She called sweetly- as she stood in front of me.

I took her hands in mine instantly, and started to pull her behind me, as we both walked out of the crew.

"What are you doing here, Joanna??" I asked her immediately we both settled at the back seat of my car and her smile turned to a frown in a swift.

"What do you mean by that, I've been calling your number for like ages but you refused to pick my calls. So I decided to call Henry to confirm your whereabouts " She explained, plainly.

"I came running to this place immediately I got your location" She concluded bitterly and I sighed softly.

"But you shouldn't be here" I told her and she leaned closer.

"Didn't you miss me?" She pouted her lips cutely and I chuckled softly.

"I'm very busy with work lately Joan, I am sure you understand" I explained and she nodded.

"Okay, fine. But i'm coming with you to the upcoming city show" She said bluntly.

"But.. "I tried saying something, she shushed me.

"No But Mr Rodney" She said sternly and I raised my hands in surrender.

"Fine, you won Miss Joanna" I said sarcastically and she pulled my ear.

"Ouch" I yelped.

"It hurts" I pouted and she laughed.

She's the only female friend I have and the only one person I acted all free minded with.

She is more like my own sister, I like her.

Joanna POV

"Hey babe!" I greeted Ava cheerfully as I walked into her apartment.

"Someone looks so happy" Ava said, eyeing me suspiciously.

"Of course I am so happy, Ava" I told her as I took sat seat next to her.

"Rodney agreed to bring me along to the city show" I added happily.

"Are you for real?" Ava asked surprisingly, as she adjusted on the sofa she was sitting on.

"Of course babes" I enthused, while pushing the strands of my hair back.

"Wow.. Wow. You are really getting along with him, aren't you?" She said with enthusiasm and I smiled broadly.

"Yes.. I just have to do it one after the other" I said, standing up from my seat.

"I will make sure I have Rodney wrapped around my fingers" I said determinedly as a smirk lingered on my lips. Definitely.
