Jason walked into the lobby to meet Alyssa to warn her. “Cancel all of my appointments today, Melissa.” He said walking by at first, but then looked up to see her crying. He paused knowing he would regret asking her what was wrong. “Why are you crying?”
“I made so many mistakes, Jason. I lost Diamond and now you for that man, and he…” Ja
CHAPTER 20“Miss Sampson, I hope I’m not intruding.” He bowed low trying to be courteous, but coming off extra creepy. “I’m Dan Sanders.” He held his hand out for her to grab, but Alyssa refused to touch him. “Leave Mr. Sanders. I’m not sure why you’re here.” Her lip trembled, but she wouldn’t give in to his scary act. Dan only smiled. “I see why my son is smitt
CHAPTER 21Jason barged into Dan’s office with veins popping out of his neck from anger. “Where is that son of a bitch!” He screamed at the security guards that surrounded the place. Two of the biggest guards grabbed him by his arms as Jason punched them in the face, then kicked as they held him up, grabbing him by his head. He screamed throwing a man that was behind him over his shoulder and down to the ground. Another kicked towards Jason’s chest, but he dodged by leaning forward punching the man in his throat.
CHAPTER 22The next morning Jason woke with the meanest hangover he ever had in his life. It wasn’t so much as the alcohol, but the added heartbreak he never felt. “Jason!” His eyes fluttered open as he heard the voice of a familiar soul. “Janet?” He sat up quickly to be tackled by her. “Fuck sis what the hell you doing here?” he asked once she released him enough so he can sit up. He held his head once he sat completely up. “Who let you in?”
CHAPTER 23“If I do take this prostitution job, won't I have to worry about getting pregnant, or worse Stds?” Janet asked, taking a stab at her strawberry on her pancake. Jason took her to their favorite place for breakfast, IHOP. “That’s why you get people screened. We have the little machine down in the basement area. A drop of blood is all you will need to test. As far as pregnancy is concerned, I doubt you will be able to do anything like that with you being cursed and such.” Janet laughed a little at his joking tone. “Like you’re not cursed. I
CHAPTER 24A couple of weeks had passed by and still Jason hadn’t heard any word from Alyssa. He was starting to believe she had moved on and forgot about him, but he wouldn’t give up. He texted her with his new phone, then looked up to see Melissa walking in. “Okay I have the list for the Christmas party on Saturday. Here are the investors that Dan personally invited.” Jason took the list. “Most of these are construction contractors. No one out of the ordinary.”
CHAPTER 25Janet, Valerie, and Yolanda were all in Jason’s room helping him get dressed for the Christmas party, drinking wine and laughing together. “Jason, no you didn’t go running through the park nude.” Valerie laughed. “I was like eight. How do you even remember that, Janet?” He smiled, tying his tie. Janet grabbed his shoulders behind him while he stood in the mirror. “It’s my job to tell embarrassing stories to your friends Jason. One day when I have friends you can do the same.” She replied, helping him tie the tie.
CHAPTER 26“What are you doing here?” Jason closed the door firmly behind him in the conference room, staring at Alyssa like she was the only woman in the world. “Why is everyone asking me that? I got an invite.” She pulled her card out of her purse again. Jason pulled the invitation out to read with eyes wide with curiosity. “Who gave you this?”“So
CHAPTER 27Wilson walked up to them as they danced, interrupting. “Sorry to cut in. Can we talk?” Jason looked down at Alyssa afraid to leave her, but nodded as he could see the urgency of it in Wilson’s eyes. “Wilson you remember Alyssa right?” he introduced. Wilson bowed. “Yes, pleasure to meet you again.” He looked back to Jason. “Let’s talk somewhere more quiet. I won’t steal him for long.” Alyssa nodded as Jason and Wilson walked off. She went to the bar and ordered a drink while she waited.
