KendallI laughed to myself as I watched Lance glance at his wristwatch every fifteen minutes and roll his eyes. Shopping with him for clothes was way more fun than I thought it would be. He wasn't fun of course but staying long to annoy him was. He wasn't going to let me shop alone because he believed I would get lost or something bad would happen like I am a two-year-old. I just think he thinks I would run off with his black card, and Audi R8. Like I am that stupid. If I wanted to rob him, I would not steal things that can be tracked easily.Moreover, I would just kill him. I have watched how to get away with murder many times.I swirled around in the green skater dress and yellow heels."You like It?" I asked. He scoffed. "It makes you look like one of them bitches that climbs a pole.Rude motherfu-"And what's wrong with that? What's wrong with strippers?" I crossed my arms and put one leg forward."Nothing." He shook his head then looked away. "I like them a little."Of course, yo

Kendall"You two slept together, right?" he pushed the covers aside and crawled in the bed beside me. He placed a pillow between us despite the bed being huge. We agreed on sleeping in the same bed as long as we didn't touch each other. I guess he is truly having a change of heart.I reached over and poked his bareback with my index finger. He hated it, but I needed his undivided attention and that was the only way."Kendall it's twelve a.m. I have a virtual meeting at five, leave me for once." he buried his face in the pillow."You haven't answered my question." I poked his back again, and he shrugged me off. I moved the pillow and shifted closer to him. "I guess her father has no idea since he's so nice to you. He doesn't know you've ... betrayed him by making love to his daughter. "I fucked her. We didn't MAKE LOVE ... There's a huge difference." He took a deep breath, then turned and faced me."It was a mistake. It only happened a few times." He eased up and rested his head on his l

Lance"No. I don't want to take her off life support." she paced the room while biting her fingertips. "I know it's been over six months, but I still want to try. Just keep the treatments going. Please." She hung up the phone and started crying. I walked across the room and placed my hand on her shoulder. She turned around and wiped her eyes."What's wrong Kendall?" I wiped the remaining tears from her eyes and cupped her face in my hands. I felt my heart saddened at the sadness in her eyes. A slight pain stung me."It's nothing of importance" She sniffled. "I'm going to prepare breakfast? What would you like? eggs? Pancakes? cereal? Fish and bread?" I grabbed her hand gently, before cupping her face."Talk to me" she pulled away and stepped back"Lance, It's nothing important. You have to get to work right? It'll be your first day back.""Is it your cousin? Is she okay?" she shook her head."Still no improvement.""I can have her flown out to another country where she can get better m

Detective VergaraI stared intently at the man sitting in the interrogation room through the one-way mirror. He tapped his fingers on the table and glanced up at the cameras. As he did that, he shook his head in a rhythmic motion and rocked back and forth. Just like a suspicious person. I furrowed my eyebrows as I watched him. Would he do it? After working in the force for over twenty years you learn to put nothing past anyone. Everyone is a suspect. No one can be trusted.He stood up and started pacing the room with one hand on his hip. He walked up to the mirror and stared at it for so long, I literally thought he could see through it."You think he did it?" I looked over at detective William and shrugged. "He is nervous.""The fact that you brought him in means you suspect him?" I took out my notepad. "I'm going in" I took a deep breath as I pushed the door and entered the room.Time to get this case over with."Thank you for coming in Dwight" I reached over and shook his sweaty pal

Kendall"Thank you for assisting me with cleaning this room Cindy," I remarked as she picked up her cleaning utensils from the floor."You're most welcome Kendall. If there is anything you need, I'll be in the kitchen" she gave me a warm smile before walking off. I was happy that she was now accustomed to calling me Kendall instead of Mrs. Russo, it was very weird for her to call me that when she is much older than I am. "I will go and prepare a warm meal for you"We had spent two hours dusting and rearranging to Suzanne’s likeness so that she would feel more at home. I was still traumatized by that lizard that jumped from the closet onto my head. According to Cindy, it means that I am pregnant, but we both knew it was highly impossible, so we just laughed it off.The room was smaller than the other rooms I had been in, but it was comfortable and beautiful. The floor was fully carpeted with a fluffy, soft black mat that matched Suzanne’s personality. The queen-sized bed was covered wit
