CHERRY’S POVI dress in a short light orange gown, which brings out my curves, it has flowery decorations on it and it looks stunning. I turn around to look at myself in my mirror and I’m satisfied with what I see.I pack my hair upwards in a tight bun, but later looses it and lets it fall down my back in lengthy waves, I apply some golden hairpins in it, wear my gold wristwatch, put on my orange pair of flat cover shoes then spray some body perfume all over myself.Deciding to look natural, I put on a little shimmery lip gloss, rub my lips together, look at myself in the mirror once more and leave my room going downstairs.I think Jeanne is not yet home, considering I left work early today and I’ve not heard her voice since I came, the house is quiet today and as I reach outside, Mark my driver opens the car door for me to get in, I decided not to drive today again.“Hello Mark, here’s the address of the place you are taking me to.” I say to him, handing him a piece of paper containi
TALIA'S POVI walk into the club with one of my side guys, I'm putting on a short blue jean skirt and a yellow strapless top which exposes my cleavages. I walk up and meet a friend of mine, "Hi Mia." I wave with a smile."Hey Talia, what's up?" She replies. Well she's a bar attendant at the club and she's in charge of drinks today. The club is jam packed today being Friday night, with people dancing, chatting and also sitting, while loud music blares from the DJ's speakers.I turn to face Mia who has already placed two shots of vodka in front of me and my date for the night."So who's this." She asks pointing at Andrew, she knows about me and Jayson and I already expected this question."Well, Jayson is always busy and doesn't give me the attention I need." I huff, sipping my shot and dropping the glass on the table."That is no reasonable excuse, Talia, you know the nature of his work, you've always been a flirt since I knew you." She says and I huff snidely, "Hey miss quit those tal
JAYSON'S POVIt's Saturday morning, I'm at home and I'm so bored. I could have called Talia to come over and spend some time with me, but I have already broken up with her even if we haven't spoken yet.Deciding to go on a stroll, I shower and dress up, I wear a green lanky top with black shorts and black sneakers. I put on my wristwatch, pick up my car keys and my phone.I walk outside to my garage, select a car from my vehicle collection and drive downtown, the cool breeze whipping through my hair and I enjoy it immensely. Having nowhere to go, I park besides a safe spot on the road I come out and start walking idly, not knowing where I'm going to. I’m having a good view of the city and it's better than staying indoors all day today.Still walking, I hear my name been shouted from behind, I turn and see a good friend of mine who I've not seen for a very long time."Hey Jay." He says, "My man Robin." I reply in salute as we fist bump heartily, laughing and smiling at each other.
CHERRY POVNext Morning.I yawn continuously, today is Sunday, and I actually want to go to church where today.I stand and walk to the bathroom at my lodge, I brush my teeth and take my shower.I come out quickly, apply my body cream and dress up for church.After dressing up, I'm putting on a pink colored summer dress with low heeled brown pump, I pick up my gold necklace and bracelet, wear some earrings and braid my hair into a ponytail.Putting my Bible and phone into my little purse, I come out big my room, walk downstairs going outside and meets Mark my driver already waiting for me."Good morning ma'am." He greets as he opens the door for me to get in, safely in, I tuck my purse but my side and answer him."Morning Mike, how was your night?" "Splendid and yours?" He asks, "Fine thank you."With that he starts the ignition and he speeds down the cobbled road of Los Angeles heading straight to the church, I already told him yesterday to look for a nearby worship center for me to
TALIA'S POVI can't stop crying, I let the hot tears fall freely down to my jaw. "It's okay, Talia, crying won't solve the problem." Ivy my friend says."Why are you telling me to stop crying ivy, everything I've worked for is all gone, Jay hates me now, I've lost him and I don't want to." I reply under my breath."It's okay Lia." She says stroking my shoulders sympathetically.Sniffing, I stop crying for a while and take a stick of cigarette, I lit it up and puts it in my mouth. I smoke deeply, the thin smoke puffing out through my nose like they are my pain and agony, I'm so depressed and frustrated.Sighing, I say to Ivy, "Get me the boys." I say staring into nothing."Why should I call them?" She asks, "Call them, give them Mia's picture and tell them to finish nher up, she deserves no mercy." I say angrily still smoking deeply."Wait.... Are you trying to say she's the one behind you and Jayson's breakup, but how and why?" She asks me again.Remembering that night at the club,
Next morningI sit up and rub my eyes softly, yawning tiredly I look up and see Jayson in front of me.Huh? "I'm close Cherry." He says, "Jayson." I call out, I shout his name again but he doesn't respond, I close my eyes and open it only to see that he has gone, and I'm sweating profusely.I realize I've been dreaming yet again and sigh, still sitting on my bed I think about the events of yesterday.It was such a hectic day for me, when I came back from church I went to the park, the mall to get some things for myself and to prepare for today's meeting with Cortez Hotels and I also called Jeanne yesterday to tell her how my vacation is going, and also about the mysterious handsome guy i collided with at the church.We gisted, laughed and talked as if we had not seen each other for almost a year and not just last week.My alarm immediately rings and I stand up from my bed and decide to get ready for work, I stand up and go to my bathroom, deciding to use the shower, I strip, take som
CHERRY'S POVI'm so exhausted, I have been working for 9 hours straight and we have just 3 rooms left to complete our target for today.My girls are with me designing the inside while the boys decided to do the outside decorations.Suddenly I feel a sharp pang of pain in my tummy, Ouch! This has to be caused by hunger, It hurts so bad. Since I drank the coffee and ate the bagels I bought this morning, I've not eaten since, during lunch break, I told my crew to just leave and go eat while I continued decorating.Excusing myself from my work crew, I go to the hotel's restaurant to get some lunch or should I even say dinner.I walk into the restaurant, and select a table meant for two, being that it's early evening the place looks scanty, I can only see 7 people apart from the hotel workers."Ma'am, evening, what would you like served." A waiter asks me. "Can I see the menu, or don't worry just give me some ginger tea without sugar and lasagna, with little sauce okay." I say and she no
JAYSON'S POVI hold her hand, and the next thing I feel is her palm landing on her cheek. Ouch! I really deserved that."Don't you dare touch me." She says and with those words, she forcefully takes her hands off mine and starts walking away, I don't let her go so easily because I follow her immediately.She increases her pace, "Cherry, please wait." I say as I walk after her, but she doesn't stop. We get outside and she quickly gets inside her car and closes the car door.I tap furiously on the locked car windows, hoping she'll open up but she doesn't, shouting above my voice I say, "Cherry, please wait, don't go like this let's settle this now."I keep tapping the car windows until she finally drives away, walking towards the building dejectedly I sit on the hotel's pavement and ruffle my hair in anger and frustration.I had the feeling that it was going to be like this if we eventually meet, but I didn't think of the outcome this way. God! I really want her back.Standing up, I go
