Our Kind of Friendship
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Breakfast table was unusually bubbling with laughter and warmth, the kind of warming atmosphere that made one remember family.
Thinking of families, Ricky remembered what he had told Jade about his sister Julia and grandmother bullying him playfully when he was still a child, and for the umpteenth time wondered what had compelled him to reveal such embarrassing personal information to her, and how his life had changed in the past month buried deep in the thought of one woman who had a knack for making him experience shivering warm sensations that left him panting for more.
He looked around him, at the navy blue decorated table for four with a touch of flowers, the green grasses full of life that surrounded them, the tall skyscrapers he remembered from his earlier visit to Dubai that were built in honour of the founder of the resort, and the beautiful paintings of men dressed in Arabian traditional outfits of long kaftans and scarfs that covered most

He was beginning to sound like an obsessed pet."Hey bro, you're still p*ssy whipped?" Great way to say good morning, what would he do without a friend like Jason? He thought to himself, utterly sarcastically."Morning to you too, gigolo. You still receiving payment for what you know how to do, or you've begun to miss your targets again?" He moved further away from hearing shots, clearly not in the mood for someone to walk up to him with a morning preaching of how to convert to the ways of Allah."You fucking fool, I'll ruin your business once I see you." Ricky chuckled, teasing his bearded jaw, by the tone of Jason's voice, he was satisfied he had said the right thing. It wasn't a secret to anyone who had gone to the same high school with Jason that his first sexual experience was still a source of embarrassment to him. He had been drunk on the night of his first day at high schooland hit it off with a woman twice his age. H

"Yes, I didn't know you are friends with Jason though."Ricky laughed, and boy did it sound beautiful. "The fool is lucky to have me as a best friend. We've known each other since high school."Jade shook her head in disbelieving admiration, her eyes saying she almost didn't picture him as the kind to maintain friendship for that long. The realisation of what she was probably thinking made him long for something that seemed impossible. It wasn't news that she had a bad impression about him, he wanted to change it."By the way, where did the others go?" He was referring to Annabelle and Ginger, though he was quite pleased they weren't there. It was only a bid to keep the conversation flowing, he had no idea of what to talk to her about, and so he asked that."Oh, I sent Annabelle to print out the script and have a room ready for my manager. She'll be arriving tomorrow morning."Ri

"No, we're going right now." Why was he acting like her wicked grade six teacher and stretching a hand to hold her as though he knew she would run on first opportunity?"Ricky, I'm not running away, I just want to get my cowgirl boots and clothes, give me five minutes and I'll be at the stable."He smiled, she ignored the slight escape of breath she felt at the beauty of the gesture, and focused on her plan. If he smiled, then he must have bought it, right?"I'd love to see you on cowgirl outfit." He was still smiling, she returned it, looking at him with her bold brown orbs open in anticipation. Suddenly, his smile faltered. "Which is why I told the manager to include new sets of clothes for the both of us, part of the services, our clothes are waiting for us there, let's go." This time he grabbed her hand and walked on, placing his arm on her shoulders to prevent her from bolting. Good, now she did feel like a student whose
When the Bosses Meet Deal
She bit her lips, knowing that was as tempting as asking if she wanted white wine and chocolates. "If you win, we only forget those restrictions today. After today, we go back to them, deal?"He thought for a while, deciding then not to think of why they must return to those rules when the same fire that consumed him also burned her deep. "Yeah, deal."She stopped abruptly then, her brows raised as she asked."Wait, what about if I win? What do I get?"Shrugging, Ricky resumed walking and she followed, feeling so content walking with him. As though they had really become friends. They were walking their horses beside each other, towards the field where other people were racing in the ring."Believe me baby, nothing is as good as the brain blowing kisses I give. I'll kiss you till you beg me to f...." His voice was deep, sultry and hoarse. She felt her panties dampen."Ricky, that's cheating. You win,
When the Bosses Meet Pun, Ricky?
What would you like sir, madam?"Ricky glanced at Jade who was busy studying the menu with her forehead creased, as though there was something quite important she hoped to discover from it. The sight almost made him laugh, she reminded him of a student who hadn't studied in a long time and picked up the textbook only a day before hoping to get everything down to the brain."Chelo Kebab spiked with sour zereshk berries for me." He responded, tapping his companion gently. She looked up."He's waiting for you to order.""Oh," she muttered, and quickly flipped through the pages for a minute. At the end, she requested for Al Machboos. The butler nodded and left with the waiters behind him. She closed the menu book, and rested her elbows on the table, feeling nervous as a teenager on first date. What was this exactly? She only wanted, needed at the moment, to eat in peace, not seat opposite him

"You mean other than giving you a more bitter taste of your own medicine? I did plan to visit the mall, I've heard enough of its magnificence to arouse my curiosity." She finished with a small smile, her eyes on him, waiting for his reaction. Well, he did think of something else that had been aroused or rather, gotten used to being aroused whenever he did as much as inhale her perfume; totally unhealthy for him, but tell that to his traitorous body if it would listen. Virtually every part of him had gone and become malady for the woman."You're rather honest, Ms. Raymonds."Jade bit her lips, feeling eighty five shades of shyness and hotness pull her in. He said her name as though she were what he breathed and ate, his deep voice beautiful and sexy. "I don't see why I should lie?" She raised her brows again, and he was going to say something when their foods arrived.The waiter who served Jade was a stereotypical cute ne
When the Bosses Meet The Other Sides of Ms. Raymonds
"I texted Anna while we were eating and asked her to get the script to this place. She should be here by now." She shielded her eyes from the sun, scanning the place like a detective with slender eyes, he guessed she wasn't really talking to him, and so he said nothing and regarded her instead, resuming his thoughts of wondering what he was getting himself into.It was better for him to pull out from this thing he couldn't even name, before he got so deep as to name it alone, but he couldn't see himself walking away, just yet. Would getting into her pants and satisfying his cravings and fantasies of nights with her wild and panting beneath him make him snap out of it?Or would going along with this facade of 'good friend' when his main friend stood to salute her every time wear away this madness? What had he been thinking suggesting he gets to know her when his mind was in turmoil, didn't belong to him anymore?He heaved

Not getting the confusion in his eyes, Mohammed continued. "I have an uncle who suffered from this, it usually came with symptoms of not being able to perform or erhmm, get it up. The clinic helped him, just three weeks sir and he was cured of his..."Cured of his? Ricky widened his eyes, suddenly understanding what he was getting at. Beside him, Jade held another laughter that threatened to betray her facade, her body shook uncontrollably beside him."I have no problem Mohammed, get me the icepack, that is all." He felt his fury build beneath the words he spoke, sweat of embarrassments rolled down his neck, the vile woman, the cause of his predicament again came to his aid."Ricky are you alright? You are sweating profusely." Her eyes drew completely perfect circles, damn dramatic woman, he could clearly see the mischief on her face.Mohammed took that as an indication to continue with his diagnosis. "Oh sir, it's

She made his emotions a huddle of cacophony, pushing him into that state of euphoria and ecstatic madness and hunger. It was a kiss that expressed the feeling of raw desire which was mutual between them; unquenching thirst for each other driving them both, leading the way, making them mere passengers in the ride to Nirvana. He cuddled her neck, kissing her lips like the drink he had wanted, needed to be alive for a long time. He had missed her, and so had she, and they told this to one another without uttering a word. Their lips were the words, their touches every proof each needed to know how the other felt about them. It was he who broke the kiss, having been reminded by the medicine he inhaled on her neck that she was convalescing. He fought hard not to remember her fall, that traumatising memory being replaced by the reality of her finally being in his arms. He wasn't panting for breath, but his chest was heaving up and down, his pupils dilated wi
When the Bosses Meet Wildest Dreams
Ricky gulped down his second cup of coffee for the night, the bitterness of the strong black coffee making him clench his teeth. It was just as he had requested for it; black, strong. Yet he felt like calling the staff to ask for a change. But it was exactly what he needed at the moment after being awake for a long long time. It was either that or he would sleep all the way to the U.S. without taking care of the urgent issues which awaited him. He checked the time by his watch, wondering why his assistant was delaying with his luggage. Not that he couldn't travel without his bags anyway considering that he could simply buy everything he needed when he got home, but there were documents he needed to sign as well before leaving. Documents like placing a ban on the P.I. in every country of the world for daring to cross him. He would ensure that although the man could live his life however he wanted without being arrested by the police, he would never be

"But before I say anything, I request that we watch the Homestead news first." Ricky added, and then reclined against the seat while the news anchor switched the TV on.Annabelle who was holding the remote, her heart in her chest switched channels, and they watched as another presenter came into view."We are here with information regarding Mr. Patrick Raymonds, whose offences of using the company as a font for his illegal activities recently went viral."Jade inhaled a deep breath, licking her lips nervously. At this point, the world had already got to know about what she had tried to protect for years, and so emphasising it in a TV didn't ache her anymore as much as she had thought it would."Based on the evidence we have gathered so far, it has been confirmed that Mr. Raymonds forced his wife, the late Prima Donna to sign the company rights over to him, and then started using the company to aid drug traffickers in their activities."The presente

She rubbed her stomach for the umpteenth time, that completely flat abdomen of hers that had served as a habitant for food and drinks...Now carried a child, one created from her and Ricky.She now had responsibility for two; whatever she did would affect the tiny foetus probably struggling to mature into a baby.She wanted to cry, again."Say ahh, Jade."She forced her mouth open, accepting the porridge oats that Chloe held out to her. Now, she couldn't refuse to eat anymore, because one other tiny human would be affected as well.Chloe reached out to wipe the corner of her mouth which the oat had spilled on, and then scooped another spoonful of the porridge.For the past three days since she had woken up, Chloe had been taking care of her during the day, while Annabelle stayed with her at night, during which her sister returned to spend the night with Esmeralda.It had felt strange at first, being at the receiving end o

The last time he had got drunk, and drowned himself in a pool of alcohol because he needed to forget everything that had to do with reality, it had been the night he'd seen Jade with Rafferty at the restaurant, the night he had made the mistake of sending the red haired Kimberly to the floors and Jade had looked at him with those hard eyes.Tonight, he was here because his girlfriend and mother of his child hated him; because he had made another mistake of causing her reputation to be ruined, and killing the trust she had in him.."One more round, sir?" The bartender asked, staring at the empty glasses that Ricky had drained down his throat with skepticism."Yeah, fill everything up.""Just two glasses will do, Robert." Another voice intervened, that familiar teasing voice that Ricky had grown up having beside him."Okay, sir." The bartender replied, without making any pretence of feeling confused about whose order to take. When the owner of the ba
When the Bosses Meet The Road Taken
'Some time' became interpreted from hours to days, during which Ricky never left her side. It didn't matter how many times he received calls that the scandal was affecting his stocks as well because he and Jade had openly declared their relationship. Neither did it matter that in the expansive VIP room, Annabelle, Chloe who arrived the morning after the accident and Kiara took turns there as well, and urged him to go home even if it was for a day. He cleaned her every morning and night, his palm lingering on her stomach which was still so flat he still felt it was a dream that his baby was growing there. Outside, security was tightened both in front of her room and the entire hospital as well. Because the media was still outside, camping like locusts and waiting for either him or Jade to come out and give an interview. They had continued writing shit of course, stating that she must have hidden in the hospital room to avoid being prosecuted. B
When the Bosses Meet A Baby?
"You didn't know she's pregnant?" Those were the doctor's first words when he announced after the first examination and scan that mother and child were safe. It had been followed by silence, throwing open of lips like a box of cookies and the question, 'Pregnant?' "No, no..." He muttered, shock gripping him whole. With the help of Kiara, he had carried her to the back of his home where Jade's chauffer had been waiting. Well, waiting for a healthy boss walking with her both legs and seething in anger, not being carried to the car by a crying man soaked in a flood of her blood. She had been admitted into the VIP floor immediately, and sent to the ER where she had been examined and scanned. Now, the good family doctor of his who was attending to her stood in front of him. "It's okay, Ricky. She'll be fine okay? Just get a change of clothes while we prepare for surgery, there's nothing you can do here anyway." The fuck he would have the co

After a while, she excused herself slid off the bed, her actions so calm it scared him so much. More than he could ever explain. He watched her pick up her phone and type some messages, before wiping the tears in her cheeks as though they encompassed a salty liquid of annoying flies rather than evidence of her pains. Then she walked to the closet, and pulled out her office wear. "Babe... Babe please, where are you going? The reporters must be outside." He dared to ask, standing and walking towards her as well. "I already asked my assistant to send for my chauffer. He will pick me up through the back gate. Is that okay by you?" "Fuck" he cursed beneath his breath, it was the tone of sheer politeness and emptiness, worse than the one she had used when they had first met. In desperation, he rushed towards her and wrapped his arms around her from the back, burying his head in her neck. "Jade please, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for l
When the Bosses Meet A Dinner with the Letter 'F'
She went deathly pale, green veins popping up visibly on her forehead, and spreading across her shaky palms; teeth clenched tightly together; lips quavering as her eyes failed to focus on a particular object. Seeing that she wasn't going to tell him anything, and that she kept hanging up on callers, Ricky took the phone from her, his heart skipping when his palms made contact with hers. Hers had gone cold like those of a person who had ceased to breathe and function normally. He read the information online as quickly as he could; it had exposed every damn thing about her family and business from Esmeralda's parentage, Chloe and the sleazy bastard who had denied the pregnancy, all the way to her father's crimes while in power as the CEO of the Raymonds corporation. He had committed all sorts of atrocities; using the company as a font for his illegal drug trafficking activities and their warehouses to aid female trafficking. And Jade was being accused o
