The sun had agreed that it will shine so brightly on the two friends who rekindled their friendship. It was happy and shone its light on the world. Jake couldn't help but feel the anger he had pent up in himself soothing away. The knot that used to tie his chest was slowly loosening, and the hole in it was closing up. Finally, he could breathe again. He was always the happiest when he had his friends around. He never understood how they did it, but they always had a way of making him feel free and light.

"We should probably get going," Micheal said as he took the last sip of his coke. That has always been his favourite drink and he had never gone a day without drinking it.

"Yeah, I guess we should." He didn't want to leave but he knew that sooner or later, he had to go back to his house. He had to go face Amanda. He just hoped that she won't take away the joy that hanging with Micheal had given him.

"You don't look so happy about it."

"Is it that obvious?"

"Well, you weren't always

    Darkness was like a cloud. It knew exactly when to hover over someone, it knew when it come and it didn't leave so easily when it had arrived. Jake felt it, he felt the darkness lurking in the corners and when he fell to the ground, he felt it overcome him. The darkness came with rain that filled his eyes. He finally gave in to it and cried his eyes out. He couldn't stand the sadness anymore. He came back to resolve the issues he was having with her but just as he suspected, she wasn't the type to hang around for long in a place where she did not feel appreciated."No," he whispered to himself as he cleaned the tear that fell from his eyes and stood up from the ground. He rushed to his phone and quickly dialled her number. It rang but unfortunately, she didn't pick up. He was about to ring the number again when a message came through. It was from Raymond. He had sent in his measurements. Normally, Jake should be elevated to have received that information but he was too concerned with

    Amanda's driver pulled up at a white apartment building. She had hoped that it won't get to that but she wasn't in control of what happened and what didn't. Her mother had kicked her out and she wasn't going to go back to a man who didn't appreciate her. She was done trying to force herself to fall in love with him. It was about time she embraced her true self, the part of her that did not care about anything and anyone. She dragged her suitcase up to the third floor with so much pain coursing through her bones. She should have gotten used to it by now. All thanks to Jake, she was exposed to all types of hard labour. Something she never thought she would go through in life. She reached her destination and knocked lightly on the door. A beautiful 27-year-old woman opened the door."Can I stay here for a while?" She asked the lady. "Of course, you can." Bethany pulled her into her arms, engulfing her in a bear hug."Mom kicked me out and Jake is just the worse person to live with.""W

    "Mrs Cash!" He exclaimed and watched as the woman walked into his apartment majestically. She was the last person he expected to see and hoped to God that she wasn't coming to insult him again. He wasn't sure of how much more he could take from that family. Mrs Cash surveyed the house once again with her eyes. She could see why her daughter ran away, she would too if she had to live in such a dump. There was absolutely nothing good about the place. It was too small, too empty and even when Jake tried his very best to keep it clean and neat, to Mrs Cash it still looked like a dumpster. "Mrs Cash, what are you doing here?" Jake asked again when he didn't get a reply the last time. He was not about to be ignored in his own house. He was done letting the Cash walk all over him especially when he knew that they were not worth it. "Young man, I can hear you," she answered but still didn't meet his eyes."Okay, so if you can hear me then please tell me what it is that you are doing here."

    Fear gripped him. He knew that she wasn't joking. Mrs Cash was a vile woman who would do anything she wanted as long as she got what she wanted. His thoughts were interrupted by the buzzing of his phone. He walked slowly to the table where he had placed it. Looking at it, he saw a missed call from Sebastian. He was about to call him back when Sebastian beat him to it. He picked up the call on the second ring."Hey, where are you?" He asked immediately."I'm at home. Why?" "Wait, which home?""Mine!""You went back to your place even after I had told you countless times to not go there?" "I had work to take care of and besides, Amanda isn't even here. Look Seb what do you want?""I wanted to go home and I wanted to know if you are done at work so that I can pick you up at once." "I'm not done with work and I won't be coming back to your place. Thanks so much for your hospitality but I need to be in my own house and as I said earlier, Amanda isn't here so you have absolutely nothing

    The wait was excruciating. Jake's palm became sweaty and so did his face. He tried to sit still but from the funny gaze that Cassidy threw his way at intervals, he knew that he wasn't doing a good job at it. The woman wasn't subtle about her amusement. She didn't try to hide her smiles that reached her intelligent eyes and from her eyes, Jake could see that she thought of him as cute. "You don't have to be so worried you know. When Ray was telling me about you and your designs, he said some pretty good things. I'm sure that the clothe will be just perfect.""Thank you, Cass." It had helped a lot to be reassured in such a way but still, his heart was troubled. Only the final verdict from Raymond would put him completely at ease. Thankfully, Ray didn't take that long to put on the clothe. He came back down in less than five minutes. Jake didn't look at the clothes on his body, he was concerned about the look on his face. The man was all smiles and that only reassured Jake."Wow, honey!

    Anger wasn't allowed to be among the things he felt for he knew the man spoke the truth. Everything about his pretence was just that, a pretence. Sooner or later he was going to go back to Amanda and begged, as he always did. He just hoped that she would come to him before he goes to her. "I know you're right." He said. "I'm just trying to avoid the inevitable." "And the longer you wait, the worse it gets. You have to do it soon my man, 'cause if you keep procrastinating it, you will end up losing her forever." Jake didn't hear Cassidy walk in, he was busy thinking of what it would be like to lose Amanda. He wasn't sure if it would be a good thing or a bad one. Somehow, he wanted to find out."Jake?!" He heard his name being called and he lifted his head and cleared his mind of its thoughts. "Yes," he responded to his caller. It was Cassidy"I said that food is ready. Let's move to the dining table." He said."Oh okay." He stood up from the sofa and followed the Emeralds into their

    Just when luck seems to start smiling down on Jake, the outside world had to remind him of his sad tale. Jake walked back home slowly, thinking of his next step. He couldn't continue to live the way he was with no wife and no friends. He needed a fresh start, needed to start doing things right. He didn't want to get used to the feeling of loneliness that threatened to swallow him whole. One thing kept ringing in his ears. Sasha. He needed to make peace with her but she had already moved on and quickly than he had expected. He didn't love her and as such wasn't expecting her to stick around and stay in a friendship that could lead to the end of her life but still, he didn't expect her to move on so quickly and begin life afresh and he certainly didn't believe that she would still not forgive him. The honking of a car caused Jake to startle and he remembered that he was in the middle of the road. He moved slightly towards the pedestrian lane and walked slowly to his apartment. He wasn

    The sun shone brightly into Raymond's room. It almost blinded his eyes. He was never a big fan of the daytime. He prefered night, at least then he could sway his secrets around without being seen. The only thing that made him love the sunlight was staring at his wife's face. He turned around and looked at her. She was the definition of perfection. Everything a man ever wanted. Regardless of the fact that she looked like a pig when she slept, to Raymond she still looked at beautiful as ever. Slowly, he could see her eyes opening. It was a beautiful sight to behold. She had a little frown on his face as she woke up and a split second that was blessed with confusion. Raymond knew that she couldn't see him, she had a minute deformity that didn't allow her eyes to capture any image after two minutes of her waking up. So Raymond stayed mute, waiting for her eyes to clear up and for her to be able to see properly. He stroked her face to let her know that he was there, watching over her and

The woman had lost her husband two years back and Laura felt like she didn't need to be alone. So she packed out of her one room apartment and moved back in with her mother."Bye guys." Laura shouted out as she closed the door."Bye aunty Laura." In between bites, Cassidy was still able to respond to the greeting."How are you doing over there baby girl?" Jane asked as she looked at her daughter from the driver's window."I'm doing okay mom. This cake is delicious. It's the best I've ever had.""Well, he did say that you were going to enjoy it. I guess he wasn't lying.""How did you meet him again?"Jane decided that it was best if her daughter didn't know everything that had happened."He came to me. Yeah, he came to apologize and he brought the gift.""Well, he is a very nice man then. I think I like him."You and me both Cass, you and me both.Jane eyes fo

    "Damn it!" Emily cursed under her breath. Every time she was beginning to have a quiet moment with Sebastian, something or someone just always had to ruin it. She could see the spark in his eyes and she knew that he was seeing her in another light. The kind of light that Emily wanted her to see him in. And now her phone just had to go and ring, interrupting the moment she was sharing with him. She removed the phone from her handbag and was more annoyed when she saw the caller ID."Yes?" She was afraid that if she had said more words, the man would have sensed her anger and wanted to find a way to relieve her of it. But Williams didn't need to see her before he could sense the mood that she was in. "Em, are you alright?" He had the same caring tone in his voice which Emily hated. She had never seen Williams as a passionate man. To her he was too bland and empty, nothing drove him to the edge. Nothing made him think outside the box, he was a calculative, arranged and organized man. It

    The bar was filled with people. Andy's has always had a full house mostly because he had good music and his staffs were as kind as the day was bright. Emily could spot some foreigners in the bar. It was a normal thing for them to always occupy all the space there. The town of Los Angeles always had people trooping into it because not only was it a tourist site, but it was also a place where opportunities could come through. Anything was possible or at least that is what they believed. They had one had a cowboy come into town with their hippy-dippy style of dressing. Once he was settled in, he opened a salon and it was his favourite place to go. Soon, he had been transformed into an LA man. It was difficult to transform him but he had the kind of spirit that could adapt to anything at any time.Emily walked towards the counter, but Andy was nowhere in sight. The cute little bartender had always had a thing for Emily but just like Williams, Emily had only considered him good as a friend

    The drive back to her company was awfully quiet. It would have been a great time to have company, like that of Sebastian. Looking at the driver's mirror, she could almost see his perfectly symmetrical face and his tattooed arms. He had a dangerous aura around him, and there was nothing that Emily loved more than danger. Emily shook her head. She shouldn't be noticing anything about him. She shouldn't be even thinking about him. She should focus on how weird and awkward it will be when she meets Williams the next time. Deciding to cross that bridge when she gets to it, Emily swerved into the parking lot. There, she saw Sebastian waiting for it.She could hear her heart racing, she could feel her blood running into her ears. She grabbed on tightly to the steering wheel. Did he have to be so attractive? Did he have to make her want him so badly? Realizing that those weren't the things she should be thinking about, she turned off her engine and focused on getting rid of him.To hell with

    It was becoming clear that all the people Sebastian was getting acquitted with were dangerous men and they all knew Ethan. The man that approached them was covered with tattoos and the more Sebastian observed him, the more he noticed the cliche way the man was dressing. He had on nose rings and an earring on his eyebrows."Hello, Denzel," Ethan said as he stood up."I see we are now mates, if not what would give you the courage to address me by my name?" "I don't believe they are any secrets between us."Denzel's couldn't take his eyes off the little brat that had almost gotten him arrested. He had sworn that the next time he sees him, he would be a dead man. But he had come with Chairman's men and anyone who wanted to live knew not to mess with Chairman. The man could do unimaginable things to his victim but still behave like he was doing nothing. "I don't think we do," Denzel said as he offered a smile his way and ushered them to their seats. "So I'm curious to know, how did a ric

    Sebastian had hoped that he would never get to see the building that threatened to end his life whenever he stepped foot into it. Reluctantly, Ethan and Sebastian moved towards the door and one of the men nugged them along."What? So when you are not chatting like little girls, you guys chose to irritate me by walking like snails?" The man said with anger in his voice. As much as Sebastian wanted to reply to him, he decided to save his strength for when he would need to run away from Maverick and his gang and if he couldn't, he would fight his way out. He didn't mind getting shot, anything was better than working full time for him.They didn't pass through the club as they did before. The entrance was a lot narrower and the presence of two guards gave the clear message of the entrance being off limits to regular party freaks. They walked in the dark for what felt like hours but was only five minutes and Sebastian kept praying that they weren't passing through the human body room. Sud

    Sebastian smiled to himself as he pulled up to the parking lot of the company. He was glad for the conversation he had with Ethan earlier. The man was a pain in the ass most of the time but he did help him get the perspective he needed.Sebastian yelled as Ethan hovered over him so early in the morning. He was used to the man not being the morning type but Ethan was wide awake and staring directly into his eyes. "Man, what the hell?!" Sebastian screamed out as he pushed Ethan away from his body. He reeked of alcohol making Sebastian worry about why he did not just pass out already. That was mostly what he did whenever he came back drunk."Don't you have where to go today?" Ethan was talking about him going out in search of a job but Sebastian knew better. There were no jobs available anywhere. "Won't be going anywhere today," he said as he turned over to his side "there are no jobs in this godforsaken town. So I might as well just save myself from the stress of looking.""So what do

    The weather was pleasant but the same couldn't be said for Emily's appearance. She cursed as she highlighted from her car and almost ran into her father's company building. She waited patiently till she heard the ding of the elevator, rushing in she quickly pressed the button that would open up to her office.Immediately the doors of the elevator opened up, she marched into her office floor completely ignoring the greetings of all the staffs that saw her. She walked briskly towards her secretary's desk and slammed her hand into her table."Good afternoon ma'am." The young lady stuttered as she looked into the gleaming eyes of her boss who was not looking happy."Sandra, what meeting did I have today?" "Ummm. Ma, which one are you referring to?"Could she be serious?"Which one am I talking about? The one I'm just coming back from. Which meeting was that?"Sandra looked down from Emily's face and scrambled the papers on her table looking for her boss itinerary for the day."Umm, that

"Ethan, what am I doing here?", "I told you I didn't want to come out tonight", "who do you know that is broke that goes to a club?", I said disturbed"You worry too much my friend. Tonight is all about enjoying some","Work of art, yeah yeah, I know", I interjected, "let's just go inside already","I added striding past him.He grabbed my arm and whispered, "hey, I got a solution for your money problem as well, you'll see", and then walked excitedly into the club"Ethan, Ethan!
