CAUGHT STARINGJack emerged from the bathroom and looked at Jane as she sat on the bed.She was already dressed up and looked like she was ready. Jack could not help but admire the beautiful face of the lady who sat at the edge of his bed.He stopped in his tracks as he stared at her sheepishly.As he kept staring, his eyes unconsciously met with her and subsequently locked up in a moment. It was very obvious that she was also staring at him, and they had met with their eyes.After a few seconds, they broke off from the lock, and Jack grinned.He needed to do something to cover up the uneasiness and clear the aura.He quickly got his phone from beside her and operated it for a few seconds.He walked closer and pointed the phone to her.“ There are some images of some restaurants. You can choose the one you would like us to go to” Jack said as he pointed the phone to her.He noticed that there was no movement from Jane for a second.Looking at her, he realized she was still stari
LET THEM BE“ Okay then, close your eyes,” Jack said.Jane obeyed at once and tried to touch the phone screen.She could do that effortlessly, but because she had her own plans, she intentionally moved her hand away from the screen, as though she was unable to touch the screen. Jack noticed that Jane was having a hard time locating the screen with her eyes closed.He held her hand and directed it to the phone screen.He left it and watched it as she clicked on a picture. Jane had intentionally acted as though he was unable to touch the phone screen.Just as she was expecting, a tender and manly hand held hers and directed it to the face of the screenA smile played on the corners of her mouth, but she forced it back.She finally touched the screen, and the picture opened.“ I think you can open your eyes now and see what you chose” she heard Jack say.She quickly opened her eyes and looked at the screen.There was something in Jack's hand beside her own hand.Her focus was now dire
MAYOR AMBROSEJack and Jane had already entered the big restaurant and sat down.Jan began admiring the restaurant right from the outside.The lights around that place were enough to make you see when a pin fell down.Everywhere was shining bright with lights. And the inside of the room looked nice too.When they walked in, Jane could not help but murmur softly ‘ wow’.The inside of the restaurant was just breathtaking.The air condition was on full blast, and the place was as cool as it could be.There were paintings on the wall beautifully crafted.The interior decor in the room was one of a kind and was top-notch.They had decorative lights hanging above them, which changed colors slowly every time.The tables in the restaurant were all arranged nicely and had been decorated nicely..There were flowers on each table there.The place smelled very good.Jane wondered what they had put there that released that kind of good fragrance.There was a cool The waiter's around were all dres
A PLAN THAT WORKS“ I think you have a point here” Jane said and heaved a sigh. “ So can i know what happened exactly” Jack askedHe had already parked the car totally and had switched off the engine.Jane finally began speaking about what really transpired between the mayor and her mother“ It all started when my mother went in looking for a job just so she could take care of me. She happened to meet a man who then was the mayor of this city. With her desperation to get a job for herself, she approached the man and spoke to him about helping her get a job. Fortunately, this man happened to have about three companies in the city and could easily help her get a job. My mum was so excited not knowing that the man had some other plans.He promised to give my mother a job and told her to report the next day to start work as a waiter in his restaurant.My mother got to the job the next day and was invited by the mayor to his office to have a word with her before she could start the j
NOT HERE PLEASEJack and Jane had reached the house and were having a discussion in the living room.Jack was narrating to her how he was intending to deal with the mayor who killed Jane’s mother.Jane was listening attentively to what Jack was saying, although she had her own doubts as to whether or not the whol;e plan was going to work.She was somehow optimistic about the whole thing and had confessed it to Jack, but Jack was very sure his plan was going to work.After their discussion, which turned out to be a very short one, Jack went for his laptop and came back to sit down with her.“ We have to try and send the messages today to all of our clients and our business partners as well as all of our workers.They need to know and understand what is going on here” Jack said as he began drafting the message on the laptop.Right after that, he opened a page and handed the laptop to Jane.“Those are the files of all the people who work in our company, and then that of
GROW UP“ Can i speak to you for a minute in private please” George said and signalled him..Mr Daniel shot him a deadly look and nodded.Tracy was looking at the two of them in turns, wondering what was going on.She had seen that George was not comfortable with the way his father was speaking in her presence.George stood up from his seat, and Mr Daniel stood up too.“ Excuse me, babe, we will be back soon” George told Tracy as he led the way with his father back into the living room.“ Dad, what was the meaning of that back there?” George asked. He was furious about what had gone on at the dining table“ And what do you mean by that question? What is the meaning of what?” Mr Daniel fired back.“ Why would you have to say that in front of my girlfriend? This should be said between me and you” George said with a serious face.“ What difference does it make anyway? It does not make any difference dies it?. You have vowed never to listen to me anyway, right? I Hav
THE DILEMMA George stood in the middle of the room and watched his father leave.He stood in the middle of the room, contemplating what he was going to do next.Although his father said everything he said out of anger, they all seemed true.He just could not stop thinking about it, as the words kept resonating in his ears.He stood there for a while and placed his hands on his waist.He did not know whether or not to go to his ‘ girlfriend’ or just get her out of the house.On a second thought, he discarded the latter idea and went for the former. After all, he was the one who wanted her to be his girlfriend.He stood there for a while without anything coming into mind until he started moving towards the dining hall.Jack opened the door and entered.His face was down, and he was no longer smiling.He looked at Tracy, who was already sitting at the edge of her seat, waiting to hear what was going on. It was obvious to George that she had heard what was going on in the living room wh
IMPOTANT MEN: DONT SPILL THE BEANSGeorge dialled his fathers number, but it went through without him answering.He called again, and the call was not answered.He gave up and dropped the phone on the bed.He heaved a sigh and went back to his former positionThen, another thought occurred to him about what his father said about Alfred.It was as though the words were now making sense to him after all.…“Do you have any idea how many things he knows about us?. Now that you have sent him away, we are in some deep shit” Mr Daniel shouted at him.“ Calm down, Dad. Alfred knows nothing about us. Besides, if he knew, who was he going to tell? Who will even listen to him rant in the first place?” …He remembered the little conversation he had with his father about Alfred, which became incomplete because of the topic of Tracy.He had just realised that what his father had said about him was a bit of a cause of alarm.Although Alfred did not really know much abo
