There was a knock on the door.
“Come in,” Samuel called out.
Gretchen walked back in with a large cereal bowl.
“Here you go. I had to find one,” she said as she handed me the bowl. I accepted it while looking at Samuel in my peripheral. I wasn’t going to ask for the bowl after asking for the fork because I didn’t want to be teased.
“Thank you again.”
She left out closing the door behind her.
I looked over because I felt Samuel still looking at me. He tilted his head examining me.
“What? I like to pour the rice out of the box into the bowl so I can mix it all together.”
“I didn’t say anything!” he chuckled.
“Naw, you were over there being all judgy on the inside. I felt it.”
He chuckled, and we began enjoying our food quietly.
“I’m going to have my private investigator stop by, so we can discuss some of the things he’s going to need to look into for us,” Samuel said.
“Who do you use?”
“Chambers Security Services, they do extensive work.”

“Come in,” I called out.
Ms. Patterson and I had finished our meals and returned to examining the boxes.
The door pushed open, and Countee walked in.
“Count,” I said as we gave each other dap.
“El, what’s up?”
“You got it, man.”
I turned to Averie.
“Ms. Patterson, this is Countee Chambers of Chambers Security Services. Count, this is Ms. Patterson. She is working on Princeton’s case with us.”
She extended her hand and smiled a genuine smile.
Her smile is gorgeous.
“Mr. Chambers, nice to meet you.”
“It’s Countee…”
“Like the poet?”
“Exactly like the poet. I am named after him.”
“Now that is cool.”
