CHERRY'S POVIts just two hours and forty five minutes precisely and I'm already bored.Switching on the TV, my cell phone vibrates with an incoming call, and without even looking at it, I put the phone in my ears."Hello." I say, and Jeanne's voice comes through."Hey what's up." She asks me and I reply, "How are you, have you arrived already.""Yeah, of course, missing me?" She asks and I just laugh, as I reply, "Yes, you don't know how bored I am right now." "Well, the hotel I am in right now, should be the best, I mean everything here is top notch, the bed I am currently lying on is so comfy, you know." I hear her squeak from the other end, and I chuckle, "Yeah, right enjoy yourself.""I'm wondering what other rooms look like, but I really like this one, it has my favorite designs and color also." She says so sharply."How can you talk so fast, without pausing and yet still not make a mistake." I ask her teasingly."Well maybe that's because I'm a rap legend." She says boastfully
JEANNE'S POV I'm currently in my room at the hotel, lying on my bed, having my dinner. After my successful meeting with handsome Jayson, I did some window shopping walking round the city as Cherry had adviced me, not alone though with Jayson who decided to show me round the city, I sent my driver back to the hotel and we took a cab back to my hotel when we were done. When we arrived together, surprisingly he had a lunch meeting with someone at the hotel I'm lodging at, so he promised to call when he was done so we could start carrying out our plan. When we waved goodbye at the hotel lobby, I came back, dropped the things I got on the bedside table, went straight to the bed, tired and sleepy after the long walks and I passed out in seconds. Now relaxing after taking my bath, I hear a knock on my door and putting on my robe I go to open the door. I'm sure it's Jayson, so I don't bother asking who's at the door, and true to my thoughts he's the one. "Hey, are you done with your mee
Some Days Later***********JEANNE'S POVI wake up and go immediately to the bathroom.I'm pressed, and I have a long day ahead of me, I'm going back to Orlando today with Jayson and it's going to be a long drama awaiting me.Putting all thoughts of the impending storm that I know will surely subside, I pick out the last cloth from my wardrobe (I've already packed, but I didn't put this particular ones in my luggage), place them on the bed and go take my bath.Minutes later, I'm done showering and wearing a towel round my body I go to the mirror and flipping and creaming my hair, I pack the short tresses in a tight bun atop my head.I don't stress my hair too much, the way Cherry does, her hair's longer and fuller so it definitely needs more care unlike mine, that I can just pack and I'm done with it.Creaming my body with the new lotion I bought from a mart in one of the recommended skin stores Jayson directed me too, and rubbing sunscreen all over, I put on my blue jean trousers and
CHERRY'S POVI am at the office with Tamara sorting out some files.Tamara is better now at least, she's back to her normal cheerful and bubbly self, skin glowing and face radiant, her pregnancy although not showing yet, really fits her I can see it.My phone beeps, a text message comes in, I don't want to read it as it may be some useless VAT messages, or whatever, but something pushes me to pick up the phone.I see it's a message from Jeanne telling me she'll be back today instead of next week like I expected and this will surely disrupt my plan.Sighing, I need to go and prepare for her, make sure food's ready amongst other things.I call Tamara and Mark, tell them about Jeanne's arrival, tell them to cancel all my schedules and after assigning them some things to do, I pick up my bag, wave goodbye and leave.When I get home, I tell Maria to quickly make a lavish meal, I don't know if she's coming with the mysterious guest or not.Racing upstairs to my room, I quickly take of my cl
JEANNE'S POVCherry has slept off.Laying her gently on the bed, and covering her with the blanket, I go and meet Jayson.He's already made himself at home, I can see that, as he's currently eating Maria's lavish delicacies at the dining table.Bringing out a chair, and sitting beside him, I fetch a large helping of pasta and chicken sauce, and begin eating too.Cleaning his mouth, with the napkin placed in front, he drinks his fruit juice, clears his throat and asks, "How's she, what did she say?" "Well, for now coast's clear, you can stay." I answer, although I don't tell him everything she said, so he wouldn't be worried.It seems he's done eating, because he stands up and says, "I think I need to rest, I'm already tired and it's getting late." Nodding I call Maria and tell her to guide him to his room.I continue eating when suddenly another idea pops in my head.Bingo! I think I've just officially turned to Jayson's and Cherry's matchmaker sent from heaven.* * * * * * * * * *
JASON'S POVI'm back, after a stressful day at work, and I'm so tired.I go to my room, take off my clothes and have a warm shower, and after that I put on a bathrobe.I hardly cream my body, but I make use of the lotion Jeanne had set aside for me and rub it all over.Putting on a black shirt, I wear an off white colored t-shirt and look at myself on the mirror, I look good.I'm tired and also famished so I go downstairs, praying I don't bump into Cherry, as her stare is the last thing I want to face this afternoon.As if God is in line with me, I get to the dining and meet only Jeanne, who's sitting and pressing away at her phone.She sees me and smiles, "How was work today?" She asks me."Fine, where's Cherry." I ask and I immediately regret my question, cause I didn't even ask about how her own day went, I just asked about her friend and I hope she doesn't feel to bad about it."Well,, she's....." She starts saying something but stops and talk of the devil, Cherry walks past the d
CHERRY'S POVI come back from work, enter my house and go straight to the dining.I'm so tired and thirsty, I need a drink of something chilled.Walking to the dining, something catches my attention and I walk towards the center table on the living room.There's a file on the table.I look at it, open it carefully, read the contents and i laugh.Even if it's the name of my company that's written on it I won't even ask or pay attention. I'll simply act like I didn't see this.I place the file back on the table, deep down I know who dropped this file here, but I'll act like I don't care, because I don't.Walking to the dinner, I take a glass and get some chilled orange juice from the fridge.Maria immediately comes to my side and telling her to take my bag upstairs, I instruct her to serve me my dinner, cause I'm so damn hungry.She nods and some minutes later, dinner is all served and I munch away hungrily.Hearing some noise from the stairs, I look to see Jayson chatting happily with
JAYSON'S POVMy eyes are closed and I see myself hugging her, planting kisses all over her face and she moans in my ears.I look into her face and all I see is beauty, love and so many unexplainable things. Leaning close i try to kiss her succulent lips, and my alarm rings loudly and I'm forced to open my eyes. It's just a fucking dream, and it's morning already and so fast.Oh shit! I curse loudly, and I remember that I have not even told Cherry again about the meeting. Even though I have decided to lie to the investors, it's not going to be easy and I sigh.Already 7:00 clock am, and having just an hour to get dressed and prepare for work, I go into the bathroom, take a quick shower, clean myself, rub the lotion Jeanne kept that I'm beginning to like, wear my clothes and I'm set to go.Walking to the mirror, I pick my styling gel and comb, and style my stubborn full dark hair and slick it all back.Looking at myself, I conclude that I'm a really handsome guy, who wasted so many ye
