Questions to ask but how!
The date i had prepared was canceled, Gia requested that i take her back home and afterwards i drove Lamar's tye moment i got a call him. I made sure Jeff was coming to to avoid more problems. We all sat on the couch separately thinking and bombarding as well. I decided to break the silence instead.
"Dude, Can someone say something and not shut the hell up?" I demanded almost flaring. Everything seemed annoying to me Suddenly, Gia had an effect on this current situation.
"I..I..Alright! Kareem? Whatever that's getting you imfuriated right should calm down first." Lamar said
"Not at all! Did you really make advances at Tracey or she did? Did you have sex with her more than once or not? What was the reason for the argument y'all both had before this whole thing exploded?" I asked my questions serially.
"Now that you've decided to understand this whole thing so what do we do?" Jeff asked calmly. It was shocking to them that i flared this instant. I turned away in silence immediately because they had their eyes fixated in me.
"You know what kareem, if you feel some type of way around here then you should sleep for a while or drive your ass home! A'ight!" Lamar blurted, i turned to him within a second. This statement got me angrier.
"What the hell is wrong with you? I came here for you and this is what you got to say?" I questioned
"Then what should i say? You came in here all worked up and angry so what do you expect? I feel so goddamn angry that i did this, i shouldn't have done it even if Riley and i had an argument about a petty thing. My bad, kareeem, my bad!" I blurted heartily.
I realized that i was mad at nothing, i was seeking the problems not solutions.
"I'm sorry, bro! Gia and i got into another fight earlier and its eating me off, i guess when some things happen then you'd know what exactly thar person is made of. I'm really sorry!" I admitted with a friendly handshake. He smiled tightly.
"What did you argue about afterall?" Jeff asked
"Y'all don't wanna know!" Lamar cringed
"You should just say it!" I coaxed
"A'ight! We argued over...SEX!" He blurted, jeff and i stared at each other to en back to him again "Don't gimme that look buddies, for the past week now Riley has always given excuses anytime i come crawling to her, she throws me away. No matter how tired you get at work, shouldn't some intimacy shake it off?!" He added in defense.
He was right! That was too rigid of her and I'm orety sure he sorted for another woman immediately, he couldn't wait any longer. Good thing Gia doesn't push me away, if analysed, i did the pushing earlier.
"That's the problem! She caused all this, obviously. Women need to learn these days, apparently, leaving us stranded could cause tons of problems." i added in his defense.
"Too bad! Now i see why you opted for rags not clothes, Riley had a hand in this but that's not enough reason!" Jeff blurted
"Rags???" Lamar and i asked in unison.
"Yes, rags! Any woman other than your darling wife is a rag..." He got defensive
"Is that what you told your wife?" I blurted
"..It's what it is. How do you see your wife anyways?"
"A good wife, seductress and goddess, i worship my wife!" I replied as they all laughed. Maybe i exaggerated a little bit but didn't care. "Come on Jeff, have you not tasted another woman or maybe drove her into a crazy orgasm??!" I asked Jeff
"Exactly! With the look of things, you are literally the angel here...and maybe Kareem too." Lamar said
"I haven't cheated on my wife, orgasm or not! She's got everything a man needs, if i want to get down with her then she always says yes to me...anywhere and anyhow I want it. Would you look elsewhere if you had a woman like that? I don't see me screwing another woman in the next future. Zoe is the best woman ever and i still don't intend to know another."
Jeff clarified. Lamar and i stop quiet for a while, he had a point. While growing up, he was overly stuck on Zoe that sometimes i wonder if she casted a spell on him but no. They've been together almost all their lives and now having two beautiful girls as well, Natalia and Mariela.
"You're such an icon, bud! You are the only one who's never had a drama before and after marriage and it makes your life boring?!." i teased while they laughed
"What do we do about Riley and Heather? Like, they need to be home with you, you can't keep living like this man!" Jeff suggested "Kareem, could you talk to your about Riley, make her understand why Riley needs to be home, she should learn to give him what he wants likewise him too."
"Yeah but that was the reason Gia and i argued! She thinks im supporting Lamar for cheating. Im not supporting him but take a good look at all this, Riley has a hand!" I blurted outrightly
"But I cheated which makes her better and not me!" Lamar added
"Yeah! Kareem, find out where Riley might be then I'd discuss with Zoe, Zoe goes to the resident and have a hearty chat and Riley returns home." Jeff delegated
"That's some sense!" I snapped. "I'll do just that!"
"All you got to do is pray harder, double your Praying etiquette." Jeff added again teasing
"Thanks alot guys, this is alot to me! Before my parents realizes she must have returned"
A day later,
I had succeeded in reconciling with my wife, i threatened to kill Tiana if she doesn't stay off our marriage now that she had a few days to stay, she'd try to intensify her plans. I instructed Gianna not to discuss any of our martial problems with Tiana and she understood regardless of not knowing the reasons behind it.
I came out of the shower with towel wrapped my waistline while Gia was on a phone call, she had no idea i was out. I heard her say 'How's Mom doing? Did they know why you're home?...Good thing!...you should...' She turned around immediately as though she felt someone was right behind her. I pretended to fall to the ground, i had to be dramatic. She rounded up her call and rushed towards me instead.
"Baby are you ok?" She asked trying to lift me up. I gained my stamina and staggered to the edge of the bed and sat, her arms were holding into my left arm.
"I'm fine babe, i missed a step! I'm totally fine babe, thats sweet of you!" i kissed her kn the forehead
"Alright! I was panicking already!" She sighed out "Would you like something?" She asked
"Oh yeah! Just water please, I'm really dehydrated right now!" I demanded politely
"Ok! I'll get some snacks too." She walked out.
I reached for her phone to see the last person on the call log, it was Riley. I was lucky enough. I exited then kept the phone back to normal.
A minute later she walked in with a tray that contained a glass of water and bowl of cookies, Gia takes really good care of me. I smiled in appreciation but this was only a stunt that i pulled tonget facts. I sipped on the water and reached for a cookie then her phone rang. We both peeped at the screen, i wanted to know if Riley was calling again but instead, Garry was calling. I couldn't hold myself no more, i had to ask.
"Who's he?" I snapped with a squeeze on my face.
"Who's who?" She looked timid at once "Uhm, He's a client. He buys our products in bulk..." She explained.
"Which gives him the right to call on you through Your private number? Jeez, Gia we talked about this!" I cautioned. We agreed on a separate number for professionalism not informal chats.
"Im sorry! You see Garry is a friend not..." She began and that got me angrier.
"You know what, just take it!" I headed for my closet, this is becoming too much.
She headed for the bathroom locking the door as well. Really?! I asked myself. I reached for my phone then texted Jeff.
*Riley's at her parents' right now!*
I took out some clothes to wear as a text surfaced
*I'm on it, bro! Thanks!*
Jeff replied then few seconds later, i got a call from ny dad, i sighed in distress. The industry.
"Hi Dada!" I sat on the chair next to me
"Hi Son! I haven't heard from you earlier, we need to talk right away." He said
"But dad..." I tried to make up an excuse, he chirped
"Shall i come over?" He asked. He knew quite well that i wouldn't say yes to that ridiculous offer.
"Of course not, I'll be there in thirty minutes ok?!"
"Ok Kareem, see you soon! Tell Gia I'd love to see her tomorrow...I've got a surprise for her!" he added them hung up.
"This is eating me up!" I blurted out loud.
I got dressed in black skinny jeans and a white round neck shirt then a hoodie on it. I wore my LV sneakers as well. Gia walked out of the bathroom with a towel around her chest, since i felt angry, she was not catching my eyes this time. I made an attempt to leave as she called
"Baby? Are you not telling me where you're heading to?" She asked as well
"Does it matter? Can i not move around again?!" I was still mad her for insisting on that call.
"Come on baby, is it about Garry? He's nothing to me, i promise. He want some..." She tried to explain then i chirped.
"Dad wants to see you tomorrow, he's got a surprise for you." I took a step to leave then she asked
"Ok but where are you going to? Should i come with you, I'm bored around here. Tiana's also going out!" She explained as well.
"I'm off to Dad's. Stay back and take care of our baby instead, you need to rest too!" I went over to her and placed a kiss on her cheek. "If you need anything, call me A.S.A.P!" I added then walked out.
While i was walking to my Car, Tiana came running in heels as she stopped me.
"Jordan, could you drop me off at the mall please?"
"You can take a cab or take my wife's car, im running late for an appointment!" I replied, i wasn't ready for her drama
"Please Jordan, i promise its just by the way! Please!" She pleaded. She desperate and innocent. I agreed because saying no would also cause a delay.
I pulled out of the parking space then hit the road. We were silent for two minutes as Lamar called. I answered like i waited for his call.
"What's up bro!!" I began
"Yo! Anything positive?" He asked, he was worrie sick.
"Yeah! Count on that! She's at her parent's. Jeff is on it, don't worry you'd be alright!" I assured
"Ok dude! I'll see y'all soon!" He hung up.
"This mall?" I asked since we approached one.
"Oh no. Its few blocks from here. Thanks!" She added, i tried not to get pissed too. "Jordan, you've been avoiding me lately, what's wrong? Don't you miss us?" she asked
"Us?" I asked then i scoffed and maintained silence
"Jordan, I'm still in love with you. I can't get you off my mind, i tried but its not working!" She added. She rubbed my thighs then i pushed her hands off me. We got to the mall then i pulled over for her drop out of the car but she remained.
"Get out!" I instructed.
"I will, just chill out ok?! Jordan i miss you so much and i just...i just want us to be together. Your wife doesn't have to know if you want. Jordan please?" She began to unstrap her dress the i stopped.
"Are you out of your mind? Just get the hell out of my car, whore!" I insulted. She was defiant but she strapped up then gave me a swift kiss before I could realise a word or an action. "Yuk! Just get out!" I yelled. She headed with a smirk, her mini flare dress shoved upward that i could see her white underwear then she adjusted, i was certain that she figured i was staring at her. I sped away instead.
