"Hi, sis! How's New York?" Honey sounds so lively while talking to Jada over Messenger."I'm fine, but I miss you," she replied, pouting at her. She even moved closer to the camera to kiss her and that made Honey laugh.It's been 2 years since Jada got to New York. Her living expenses are all on Faith still, but her cousin wanted it that way. She said it was her way of returning the favor for when it was her who lived with Jada’s family.Jada and her cousin would go out almost every night. It’s her way of moving on after breaking up with her boyfriend two months after Jada arrived.They would always go bar hopping and it’s not just some chill night out. Instead, they’d go to all-out parties.Jada got to meet other guys. She doesn’t know though, why she doesn’t feel interested. She dated someone once, but it didn’t last long.There was this one time when they got drunk and he took her to his apartment. It was a hot and sizzling night.He knew Jada didn't want to have sex so he asked he
When they reached their condo building, Bambi was still frowning at Jada. But, of course, that didn’t stop her from teasing the pink.Jada couldn’t stop laughing at his reactions, as he looked like he was about ready to strangle her. However, her laughing stopped when she saw someone standing right outside her door.Looking closely, the gorgeous man was actually standing outside her best friend's door. As they walked closer, Jada recognized the hottie. It was Kobe.Her eyes widened in shock, then she pulled Bambi to a stop before whispering to him, “They’re back together?”“You didn’t know?” he gasped and she nodded. “You were only away for four months and you’re not updated anymore?” she pouted at him. It seemed like her sources forgot to inform her about their reconciliation.“Hi, Kobe!”According to her unreliable sources, who happen to be her friends, Kobe is now the CEO of the company he put up with Lyken. Yes, they are partners.They started their construction firm right after g
“What have you been doing with your life?”Jada was surprised when somebody spoke next to her. She didn’t notice that Kobe had already gotten so close and he'd finally managed to ask what he'd been thinking about for hours now.She smiled sheepishly at the man to somehow make him forget what he wanted to know, but it wasn’t effective. He just sat there looking intensely at her and he seemed determined to get an answer.Jada suddenly felt scared, "Hon, Kobe’s interrogating me!” she called, trying to get Honey to rescue her, but the woman didn’t respond.“He plays with men, Kobe,” Bambi spilled. He even sticks his tongue out at Jada.“Wow! Aren’t you being rude? How was I playing with them when I was actually pleasuring them?” she tried to refute.Jada knew what she said didn’t make any sense. But she has to say something before Kobe starts scolding her.If she lets him talk first, she’d probably feel lost and she might slip up. And with everything she knows, that’s a huge no-no.When t
When Jada stepped out of her room the next day, three gossipmongers were lounging on her couch. She went inside the restroom to wash up and brush her teeth and when she stepped out, there were already four of them.Kobe has arrived.“Are we not going out tonight? It’s Saturday!” Ada asked no one in particular.She looked at them one by one before sitting next to Ada. “Yeah, no gimmick?” she asked too.“Us? Why? You’re not joining?” Honey asked, confused. She even secretly nudged Kobe for backup.“Come on Jada, let’s go out tonight!” the man chimed in.“No, thanks! You know I don’t like going out when I’m here,” eyeing Honey for help.“You mean you came back some time ago?” Kobe asked. Jada nodded at him and he frowned, turning to Honey and creasing his forehead at her. “You guys broke up at that time!” she said immediately to defend her friend."You came back without letting me know? I thought we were friends. I thought I was your second BFF?” he stated dramatically.“So what are we
Jada was feeling high as she loved the DJ’s playlist. She didn’t stop dancing from the moment she stepped onto the dancefloor.She noticed the pinks had come back to the table, poured themselves a drink, and downed them. After that, they came back dancing, while Jada hadn’t stopped yet..With a bottle of beer in one hand, she kept swaying to the music with her eyes closed. Jada loved dancing. Not as much as she loves singing, but she loves to dance. It makes her feel free.When the next music played, she told herself that it was the last one. She needed to rest as her feet were starting to feel numb. It was mid-song when she felt someone wrap his arms around her.Jada was used to men doing that, so she just ignored it and continued with her business. But the man managed to catch her attention when he whispered her name.It was a very familiar voice. So familiar that it made Jada turn around to confirm if she was right. She was in the dark part of the dancefloor so she wasn’t able to r
Weighing on his feelings, Lyken wasn’t sure whether he was mad at her because she left him or because it seemed like what she did before didn’t really matter to her.Jada could still smile at him and that smile alone melted his heart. It’s unfair. Lyken felt aggrieved.Lyken immediately walked up to the table when Kobe called him. But their friend was quick to bow his head when he saw Jada glaring at him.He slowly sat on the seat occupied by Kristoff earlier. He was trying his best not to look at the beautiful woman next to him, forcing himself to pay attention to their friends.“This is cheating! Why are you guys having a reunion when you know I’m out of the country?” he scolded before scowling at them.“Pfft, enough with the drama,” Kobe cut him off. “I told you we were going out. That’s probably why you rushed back because you missed us too!”Lyken laughed at his best friend. He knew him too well. It’s true that he missed everyone, except for Kobe, of course.It’s been a while sin
"I went up to my unit first. Then I waited for 30 minutes before texting her to come up. We started kissing as soon as I opened the door,” looking at them one by one, checking their reactions, but they were just quietly listening to him.“I was shocked at first but lust got a hold of me so I gave in. I led her towards my room and we had some sort of foreplay in there. He gave me a head. But after that, I stopped her. I told her we couldn't go further than that. She understood but she asked me if she could sleep over, so I let her stay,” I paused to let out a sigh, waiting for any violent reaction from them, but they remained quiet.“The next day, I woke up and she was nowhere to be found. When I checked my phone, that was the only time I saw the calls I missed from Honey. Then I read the message that Jada’s missing."They were all staring at him like he was a ghost after telling them everything. He was waiting for someone to punch me but they were calm.He knew how much these guys lov
‘This asshole easily gave in after acting sweet. Typical playboy.’ Jada suddenly felt outraged. She didn’t expect him to be this cheap.She felt it when he laid her down on the bed. She peeked and quickly grabbed his arm when she saw that he was about to turn around and leave.When he laid down next to her, Jada quickly snaked her arm on his waist, making him catch his breath. She wanted to laugh out loud but she held it in.‘How can this man be so weak?’Jada felt him let out a deep sigh before he gently turned his head. Unsure whether he was now facing him or not, she kept her eyes closed.She tried to check how close they were to each other before tilting her head upward. She was only sure they were close enough when she felt her breath bouncing back.His body tensed so she placed her leg on top of him. It luckily landed on his magic stick and Jada felt that it was hard.Jada couldn’t help but smile and she knew he saw that because when she peeked again, she saw him closing his eye
Lyken’s POV“Baby, what do you want for breakfast?” I asked when I noticed that she was already awake.We’ve already moved to our new house. I had this built two years ago, then two weeks before the wedding, I prepared it for us to move in right after the wedding.“Fried rice and salted egg,” she said as she rolled to her stomach.“Ok then, I’ll ask Lucy to prepare it,” then I stood up, kissed her forehead, and hugged her.“Ew! You smell bad!” she exclaimed as she pushed me away.I creased my forehead, and she looked disgusted. “I… I smell bad?” I asked in disbelief, and she nodded. “Baby, I just took a bath! I’m even wearing the perfume you gifted me!”“Ly, you stink! Go and bathe again!”I scratch the back of my head. I felt embarrassed, but I couldn’t stop myself from chuckling. ‘Is this because of her pregnancy?’To not ruin her mood, I quickly head to the bathroom to wash off the smell of perfume. That’s probably it.Jada waited for me, and when I returned, we went downstairs tog
It’s been two weeks since Lyken proposed, and now, they’re getting married. Yes, today is that day, and Jada could say she’s more than excited.Everyone thought it would take them a few months to walk down the aisle, but when Lyken said it was in two weeks, Jada agreed. There’s no reason not to.‘He loves me, and I feel the same for him. Why should we drag? In all honesty, I've never felt this happy before. Not since Lyken became my boyfriend.’When Jada and Lyken broke up, she thought they couldn’t fix things between them. But thanks to the power of forgiveness, they are where they are now.Just as Demi Moore said, ‘The things people do to each other, they remember. If they stay together, it's not because they forget. It's because they forgive.’And Jada agrees with her. Whether she likes it or not, what happened between Lyken and her will be forever part of their history. That’s something they can’t just erase.However, instead of seeing it as an obstacle, they should see it as a le
Jada was startled when she heard Honey yelling. She wanted to stop her, but she was in full warrior mode, so she didn’t bother.“Hey! Hey, you! Stand up, bitch!” Honey called off the woman as she pulled her arm.The girl sat up, rubbed her eyes, and tried to recognize who was the woman that was harassing her. “Who are you?” she even asked.The blonde girl was about to speak again, but Honey’s palm flew across her face. “You don’t have to know! What you need to do now is to get out of that bed,” Honey continued.When the woman didn’t move, Honey grabbed her by the hair and dragged her out of bed. The blanket covering her fell to the floor, and Jada was relieved when she saw that she was still wearing her bra and pants.“What the fuck is wrong with you?” She screamed as she struggled to stand up. “How dare you hurt me?”Honey slapped her again. She was trying to help the girl get her senses back. The girl with blonde hair touched her face and screamed when she saw bloodstain on her fin
The next day, Jada woke up past lunchtime. It was a Sunday. When she stepped out of her room, Jada saw their friends in the living room. Everyone’s there except for Lyken.“Hi, Ja,” Kobe greeted. “Lyken had to go with his parents to visit his grandparents. But I’m meeting him tonight. We’re talking to a client about a new project. But don’t worry, it won’t get in the way of your wedding.”Jada nodded at him as she sat on the couch. Steve sat next to Jada, reaching for her hand and giving it a light squeeze. “What happened to you guys?” he asked.She lets out a sigh and starts telling them everything. They were all just listening, sighing from time to time.“You just have to talk calmly,” Kobe suggested. Jada nodded at him, and he smiled. “There’s nothing the two of you can’t fix. Compared to what you went through before, this is nothing.”“Exactly! Just stay calm when you talk, both of you! The last time you did, you were at each other’s throats. Of course, nothing good will come out
Lyken felt his body stiffen when he heard what Jada said. Instead of explaining herself and apologizing for what she did, she asked him to leave.‘She’s unbelievable!’Jada quietly stood up, faced her closet, and pulled out a pair of pajamas. She started taking her clothes, one by one. She even ripped the fishnet off her body.She stopped her from what she was doing, holding both her wrists down. “What’s wrong with you?” Lyken sneered.She looked straight into his eyes, and Lyken wanted to back down. He saw how cold she was looking at him. ‘What’s happening to her?’“What else do you want me to do? I was considering quitting my career after marrying you because you said you don’t like it when I go out there, dressed up with almost nothing, and other men see me. I allow you to choose my outfit so we won’t argue about anything. Now, what else do you want?” she screamed, tears starting to flow down her cheeks.Lyken heard movements from behind him, it was Honey and the pinks, but he igno
Lyken already had a few drinks when he got to the venue. He came from his parent's place and had a few drinks with his cousins. But then they had to leave early for the party.“Hey, dude!” Kobe greeted him, and Lyken started introducing his cousins to him. “You ready to party?” he whispered as they entered the club.As soon as they entered, the lights turned off. Kobe led him to the couch and made him sit right in the middle. “Now you wait for the gifts,” he chuckled.Steve passed a glass of whiskey to him. Lyken took a sip and waited until he heard the music playing.‘Showtime!’The spotlight turned to the center of the floor, where two girls stood back to back. Then they turned to face each other. They started kissing before pushing each other away. Then they started walking toward Lyken.He didn’t like the idea of hiring strippers. They’re good for the eyes, but that was it. However, Steve and Robin decided to hire two strippers for the guests.They even told Jada about it, and she
Lyken stayed overnight, complaining about a throbbing headache. He was up early the next day to meet his relatives who came from the States for the wedding.Jada asked him to drop her at the mall. He didn’t ask why she was going there, so Jada was relieved. When she arrived, Ada and Bambi were already waiting for her.“Let’s go byotch!” Bambi excitedly pulled her. They went to the boutique she told them about last night. It’s a specialty store that sells stripper outfits for both men and women.As soon as they got in, Jada found the outfit she was thinking of wearing. A glitter sheer mesh jumpsuit.“Girl, no need to try it on!” Ada exclaimed, obviously excited.“I know, right?” She responded as she walked over to the counter.“Byotch, you need footwear to go with that,” Bambi reminded her then he showed her a pair of 6-inch mesh platforms.Checking the size, Jada took it from him and placed it on the counter as well, “Perfect,” she muttered as the cashier ran her items for checkout.
‘It’s Lyken! It’s definitely him!’Jada knew something was up when their friends were all acting weird while planning the party. They’re hiding something, and this was it. Lyken showed up as a stripper!“Surprised?” he whispered as he planted a kiss on her lips and lightly sucked her lower lip.Lyken removed his mask, “Why are you here?” Jada chuckled, shaking her head at him.“This is Bambi and Ada’s idea,” he informed her. “They talked me into doing this. Even Robin and Steve helped them.”Jada looked at the pinks. They were now busy squirming because the strippers were on them. She laughed, hitting Lyken lightly in the arm.“Why would you even ask me to change clothes when you were attending anyway!”Lyken wrapped his arms around her waist, pulled her closer, and let her chin rest on his shoulder. “I know you were upset about that earlier,” he whispered. “But as you can see, there are still other men here, baby.”“Why are you so jealous?!” Jada asked in a low voice.Lyken let out a
After a week, all the preparations for Jada and Lyken’s wedding has been completed. The church, venue for the reception, gowns for the bride and entourage, and the wedding theme were all set.Lyken and Kobe were done with all their projects as well. Kobe has also signed Lyken’s leave of absence for his upcoming wedding.“Baby, your bridal shower’s tonight, right?” Lyken asked. He was lying on the couch with a pillow propped under his head.Jada sat next to him, handing him a glass of mango juice, “Yep! But the pinks are way more excited for that,” she chuckled.He just nodded and smiled as he pulled himself up. “Don’t look too much, okay?” he reminded. Jada and Lyken were informed that the pinks hired a stripper for the event.“Of course… unless something is interesting to look at,” she grinned.Lyken glared at her, scrunched his nose, he cleared his throat as if sending a warning. As she got the signal, Jada showed him a peace sign to calm him down before snuggling next to him.“Hmph
