Chapter 169: The way I'm going about it!

  

****

Later that same day, 

I drove to the bar where the store owner and I would meet, wearing a disguise including a mask on. Halfways on the time, he asked like he been thinking about it a long time ago.

  "What's up with the drink and stuff?! I seldom get invites like this."

  "That's unlikely! Is it prohibited?"

  "Of course not, Miami's got a lot to offer you know!" He took a shot of rum "Anyways, I'm David and you?"

  "Oh Er...I'm Kingston!" I snapped confidently "I'm only curious about your store!" I blurted as his titled his brows, he seemed skeptical

  "A junk store? There's not good it when you only recycle stuff...you don't buy branded stuff like you ought to find branded girls!" He teased as we both laughed

  "That's crazy! I agree with you, they really got brand and so, what's your brand?" I asked with a slight smirk.

  "Tequila and vodka women..." 

We laughed again, he's such a lunatic.

  "Oh man, that's a big one but I do rum girls..." I blurted as he laughed harder

  "You are such a clown Kings, rum girls are crazy. They are no-go area.."

  "I know right! But that's my kinda girl!" I added "But hold up, do you think that Jordan's new girl is a rum type? She looks hot to me and...crazy!" I said

  "You don't wanna know!" I snapped underneath his breath, I guessed he had no idea that I heard him already.

  "Woah! It seems like y'all got some special ties...you know her that much don't you?"

  "Damn not! How could a junk store owner meet one of Miami's fave journalist...c'mon, i know my limits."

  "You could actually meet her if you want to.."

  "How?" His brows furrowed

  "You just gotta think!" I snapped knowing fully well that he already knew Nessa. "Do some jobs for and there you go!" I said then he laughed

  "Funny huh? Let's not talk about her i guess, you may never get to meet her in real..." He snapped disrespectfully

  "And you? Do you or you already did?"

I blasted as he remained silent taking down a forceful shot.

  "Something about you feel unreal, and I still can't figure it out! You tell me. Why are you really interested about Jordan and his women?" He looked serious

  "Let's just say that he fascinates me?! He's once helped me the rod while I was haggling over some stuff as he came through! That wad the best time of my life, man!" I said

  "I wish he knew how desperate you wanna see him come around again!" He smiled faintly "Can you be honest?"

  "Sure!" I snapped

  "Why are we talking about this? One time we talk about girls then you beat around Vanessa and when its about men, you beat around Jordan! Are you sure you done want something or think something? Share." He said. I was too direct I guess, he looks cunning to me which is trouble.

  "To be real with you, I need a goddamn job! I can barely pay my 6 months rent right now, isn't that enough shame?" I blurted out seriously, you'd think that I needed an instant job at a snap. "I'm willing to do just anything at the moment!"

  "Hmm!" He shrugged "Don't dig into pits you can't fill up." He said.

  "Once you've dug a pit that's plainly out of your league and have filled it then what more is a 6 feet pit?" I asked, he looked impressed already.

  "I think I like you! I'll hit you up soon!"

That was the only thing he said as well continued drinking.

Late at night, Nessa and i cuddled up in bed like teenagers who were so in love but deep down in our hearts, we both had plans to ruin each other. How devilish.

Initially, my arm was wrapped around her while her arm was across my chest and little by little she slid out of bed while I feigned to be in a deep slumber. She walked into the bathroom with some clothed and in less than 2 minutes she walked out all dressed in a sea blue jeans trouser and a black top, her hair was covered with a cap as well as a vintage ankle boot.

She grabbed her keys and tip toed out of  the room making sure she left no sounds normal traces.  I got out of bed as I followed her, I watched her drive out of the parking space. She reached fr her SUV abd kicked the engine but it couldn't move, flat tyres. She had no option than to take the other and she zoomed off, luckily for me, she drove away in the Tesla.

I took my keys and followed her maintaining a safe unrecognizable distance. Just like I suspected she was headed in the way of the junk store. She pulled over at the space while David was waiting right outside as they both walked into the store. I could only watch from a distance with a binocular, it wasn't enough because wanted to see what else she does inside the store. I got out of the car then leaned beside the wall peeking through the window, they were standing around the compartment where some tools were kept them they squatted so i couldn't see what happened next. I heard no sounds, no chattering or mumbles. They are both silent which got me thinking terribly, I was overly curious to know what was going on. If it was sex of any sort, I wouldn't bother but this was way more detrimental and strongly felt that Gianna and my sons were in great distress.

I stood there for over ten minutes yet there wasn't a sound so I returned to the car using the binocular again. I decided to leave since it was almost thirty minutes, I drove home.

I couldn't forgive myself either, the thought of Gia being in that store haunted me instead. I was so certain and there was no reason to but i was. I waited in the bedroom pacing around back and forth rubbing my hair roughly.

I texted BJ instantly.

    *Get your hands on the store owner by morning!*

          *Count on it, boss!*

His reply came afterwards within a blink. I returned to the living room downstairs and sat waiting for Vanessa.

Nessa walked in with a brown bag, looked her in a daunting manner.

  "Baby? You're awake already?"

  "Should that be a question or would start explaining where you've been through the night?" I asked sternly, everything about her was getting me fed up suddenly. She wasn't sweet and loving like I had though months ago.

  "Er...Baby I was out for a quick shopping...like I headed out to get some things and I made my way home as soon as possible!" She explained

  "Do you realize that you are talking to Jordan Khaleefa?" I asked as she maintained silence then I yelled "Answer me!" My veins had sprouted into it full view as she got a startled

  "I swear it, I was out for some things..."

  "Don't taste me Nessa, don't test me for once in your life. You can't live with me and have a double life, you don't do that with me. Don't treat me like a fool that I'm not Nessa, I'd kill you if you dare it one more time!" I said smirking

  "But Jordan, i swear that i was..." She tried to explain who got me even more upset. I walked to her and pushed the bag to fall on the ground, she lost its grip over it. Clothes fell out of it along side a pliers and a scissor. I looked at them and then looked up to her

  "The next time you leave like that again, I'd dress you up ik these clothes for your funeral as well as cutting you into pieces. Don't test me!" I walked away, she didn't follow me from behind. I went sight that she wouldn't see me, she was smirking speaking to herself, she felt contented then I showed myself suddenly she came running to me like I child who's chasing her bunny. I entered the room yet she was beside me.

  "Honey, I'm really sorry for getting you worried and angry. I should've told you..." 

  "Should have?" I turned to her Instantly "You don't know the ethics, do you?"

  "What do you mean?" A frown settled on her face

  "That's not ethical, you know the rules, you know the security, you preach 'em to everyone and here you are moving about shopping your shit out at night? Who does that? Who'd accept that as a plain truth? What the hell?" I cautioned

  "I know but..." 

  "Do you want us to go on with this thing we call love or not?" I asked

  "Of co...course Jordan, I want us to be together!"

  "Then follow the ethics!" I almost yelled as I returned to bed lying on my side.

  "What ethics Jordan, you talk like I've been doing something wrong..." She said in defense.

  "Gia would never act like you do, that's the difference!" I blurted closing my eyes to sleep

  "Gianna again! Let's get this over with!" She said underneath her breath. She took up her laptop, I heard the sounds of  her punching the keyboards really fast, like she was at war with them, I didn't bother to check on her.

07:14pm,

I came out of the shower with a towel around my waits as she came to me caressing me, placing soft kisses on my chest and arms as she stood on her toes you kiss me on the lips then I pushed her away

  "I'm not in the mood for it!" I snapped walking to the mirror as I wiped off my skin religiously. She was dismayed, I could see her reflection through the mirror, she was right behind me on the bed.

  "You're not in the mood..." She said then approached me forcefully placing her hands on her boobies and butt.

   "Nessa!" I called out angrily as she refrained 

  "Why are you doing this? I don't get to be in the mood 'cause you are only one meant to?" She asked as I ignored, rubbing some lotion on my skin. Gianna's cosmetic line had been nothing but highly recommendable, I preferred hers to the brand I've been using. Now that she wasn't there to overlook things, mother assisted because she had a better experience at it anyways. "Is this what you do to women, to Gianna?"

  "Think whatever you like but don't talk about Gianna!" I warned

  "Or what?" She smirked "If only you know the kinda situation you've gotten yourself into then you'd treat me better!" She blurted out as I slowly turned to her, she indirectly confessed "That's right!" She walked into the bathroom.

My phone beeped then I glanced at it.

       *Have you seen this?*

Jeff texted attaching a video as well

       *Could Gianna ever do such a thing?*

Lamar texted afterwards then I clicked on the video. Gianna was threatening to kill my sons, I could see how skinny and unhealthy they all looked yet she was threatening, I couldn't believe it. 

  "Shit!" I said almost yelling. There was another post online claiming that Gianna was a terrorist while I was domestically abusing Nessa. Confusion was at its height inside me, then I ran to Nessa in the bathroom. She was already in the shower then is asked.

  "What did you do?"

  "Do what? I don't understand..."

  "...Don't pretend your shit..." I yelled out but she wasn't moved. "Is this what you do?"

  "Do what exactly? Jordan, I could sue for assaulting me, for false accusations..."

  "Really? You should pray you make it out alive!" I added as I walked away abruptly

  "Stop accusing me wrongly, Jordan! I did nothing!!!" She screamed from the shower. I dialed my secretary instantly.

  "Yeah! Cancel all my meetings and appointments right now....I've got to deal with something!"

I bashed the thought of wearing a suit and took up black and white track suit and some sneakers. Even at a very unpleasant stage that was in, I didn't want to look crazy, is that selfish or self love?

Nessa walked out of the shower naked hit it was tingling me at all, gia was on my mind. She no longer captivated my attention. I turned to her instantly.

  "Nessa?"

She shrugged instead then turned to me.

  "What's the matter?"

  "I'll be leaving for Manchester, in a few hours...business call." I said "I wall upon it this morning!" I explained

  "I'd miss you," She came closer wrapping her arms around my neck then kissed my cheek " really sorry if I got you angry last night. My intentions are pure..."

  "Like my intentions are pure towards you!" I snapped

  "Jordan!" 

  "Take care of yourself Nessa, don't just try to hurt me you know! You wouldn't get it easy with me!"I warned with a slight smirk

  "Of course! I love you ok?" She said then her hands traveled down to my cock "Are you sure you don't wanna hit..."

  "How about you drop dead in a red lingerie when I return? Hmm?" I asked

She seemed confused by the word 'drop dead', i was undeniably sarcastic but I wished we really dropped dead.

  "Silly Jordan! The lingerie will do!"

We hugged as i made my out of the room. Nothing of mine was at risk because, I had long stored them away before she arrived.

While on the drive, BJ texted me.

       *I got him, coming now?*

             *Of course! Feed him some wine!*

I replied as I dialed my father, he answered like he's been waiting on me.

  "I saw what your girlfriend did, she lied about it huh?" He began as I smiled

  "Obviously! Are y'all set to hit the plane? I wanna see you both first, A'ight?" I said

  "Yes son, we are at the roof top. We got thirty minutes to spare." Hr said

  "Alright, I'll be there. Kiss Mom for me!"

  "Nope, a hug will do!" He teased back as he hung up.

My phone rang again, my friends were calling through a face time. I hung the phone on the stand while i tried to focus on the road.

  "Tell me its not true that Kareem is now  abusing the sources!" Jeff began a d they both laughed

  "Guys this is not funny!"

  "Then what is? Your entire relationship with this Nessa girl is a whole charade, which makes it funnier!" Lamar said

  "What's going on?" Jeff asked curiously

  "We can't talk through the phone, its a huge story to tell! I'll see you both in two hours! I'll text y'all aight?" I explained, maybe it was time i explained to them what the main deal was about.

  "Be careful out there okay?!" Jeff said
