“Is this going to be us, I have agreed not to make any promises and agreed with your terms so can we just erase that I said anything and return to us?” Un-fucking-believable. Grandfather certainly forgot to mention, how hard I’ll have to fight to keep this unexpected woman. I’m ready for the fight though. Fight, I will

“I’ll have toast, and scrambled eggs with a glass of apple juice,” she answers.

“That’s better” I pick up the phone to place the order for our breakfast. I want to ask why she was crying but it’s best to leave it alone.

Once the order is placed, I sit next to her “Kiss me, lady” She turns towards me a little hesitant at first, she leans in for the kiss. I don’t give her a second to think. I’ve realized the only way I can express my love is to continue to show her in every way, how much I love her. I give all of me to her, she doesn’t hold back either. There’s no way she isn’t in love with me. We both know it, only one of us is willing to voice it.

She’s soon back to herself, laughing with me. We eat our late breakfast. We start getting ready for New York. I refuse to let Jade open her laptop and study. She mentally locks me out once, she starts to work. I love her grit just not today.

We rarely ever go out together because of my status and the fact she doesn’t want to be photographed with me. The camera always finds a way to show up, I don’t want them following Jade or making life difficult for her. Without the press, she’s already writing us off. I hate to think how she would react if the press got wind of our relationship.

She’d told me her friends wanted to hang out at a party. I don’t want to go to a college party. Our agreed compromise is for us to fly to New York for a party my cousin Raheem is having at the new penthouse he just purchased.

I told him I wasn’t going to go but Jade wanted to party, so I figured I would take her. I call Raheem to confirm we’ll be showing up.

We soon boarded the private plane. Jade falls asleep as soon as we take off, she reaches for me right on cue as she normally does in her sleep. She leans into me her head on my shoulder and arms wrapped around me. She purrs. I notice Rilwan watching us. He’s never seen us like this. Jade doesn’t do PDA. She keeps everything with us private. Now he can see firsthand that she’s not frightened of me. She loves me but just won’t admit it.

“Gent, I’m sorry for wanting to leave earlier,” she mumbles.

“I know.” I turn my head to kiss her forehead, and she smiles.

“Wake me when we land.”

“I will, go back to sleep.” I adjusted our chair so she can sleep comfortably.

I gently wake her up once we are about to land. She still clings to me, though awake now. We drove to my apartment. I rarely visit New York now because of Jade. Used to be my first stop, but now I’m always in Chicago with her.

Once settled in, we both get ready. I’m dressed in a shirt and jeans and a blazer. When Jade comes out. In sequin shorts and a snug halter top, showing too much of her legs and breasts with strappy sandals. She has lots of make-up on, but Jade doesn’t wear make-up. If I’d known, she would be wearing what she’s wearing right now. I would’ve suggested we stay home. I would like to change our plans; I know she wouldn’t like that. I remain quiet and say, “You look beautiful, my lady.”

“Thank you, Gent,” she says giving me a questionable look. She knows I won’t let her wear this on a regular day, but we are taming Naseer today.

We quietly drove to Raheem’s party; my cousin had already given me the code to his back entrance. We go in through the back elevator. The loud music and noise greet us once we step into the party. Holding her hand, I lead the way to find Raheem. I notice a few guys checking my girl out, something I figured would happen with what she’s wearing.

I find Raheem and he waves for us to join him in a quiet room. Raheem and I shake hands and his eyes widen when he probably realizes it’s Jade “You must be Mariam?” He says to her proffering his hand for a handshake,

“Yes, I’m Mariam and you are Raheem, right?” she takes his hand. He lifts her hand to his lips.

“Pleasure to finally meet you, Mariam, my cousin has been keeping you all to himself.” she laughs.

“Yeah, he does that a lot.” She smiles at me.

“I don’t blame him; I’ll most likely do the same if I have such beauty.” She smiles and leans into me. I wrap my arms around her waist.

“What would you like to drink,” he asks her.

“Any fruity drink with less alcohol would be fine.”

Raheem gets us both a drink, he knows what I drink. His attention is soon called. Jade and I found a spot to sit. She starts to talk about Raheem’s place. I notice she likes his place. We noticed a few people going to the open rooftop and she pulled for us to go there.

“Whoa! This is beautiful.” Jade exclaims once we step onto the tastefully decorated rooftop. She’s all excited. We found a spot to sit and enjoy the view. My phone starts to ring, I check it, it’s the King.

“I have to take this call,” I say to her. She nods and I step away to take the call from my uncle. I expect the call to be all pleasantries, but my uncle shares a developing concern about the head of transportation with me. I leave Jade, though I don’t want to, but Raheem and I are urgently needed. I find Raheem, we ended up in his private office speaking with my uncle at length on how to attack the issue of the head transportation corruption that’s come to light.

The phone call took time with some immediate planning. The king finally hangs up. Raheem and I concluded that he would be flying out tomorrow to assist our uncle.

We return to the party, and I see Jade laughing with a guy, he’s touching her, even whispering in her ears. I’m about to head their way when Raheem stops me. He knows I would knock the guy out. “He’s gay,” he says.

“So, he could be bisexual.”
