** Jeremy **
I rushed out of Healthy Hair with Anike my assistant behind me
A guard opened the door of the Limo and i entered
I had just finished modeling hair treatment
"Any other thing for today? Im tired" i asked brushing my hands through my hair
"Youre meeting with Killian Raymond for contract review at Jay Electronics by 3, then practice at 4:30"
"Cancel practice" i told her
"But your manager said…"
"Any other thing Anike?"
"There is a board meeting at Harlene University by 6 and then thats all for today" Anike announced
"Is it okay to represent me at Harlene?"
"Not an issue Sir"
"Thanks"
The car came to a halt in front of my family
"What time is it" I asked tiredly
"2:17 sir"
I addressed the driver ignoring Anike's "sir"
"Jay electronics please"
"Sure Jay" he pulled out of the compound just as the front door opened and mom came out
I just ignored and he kept driving

By 12 past 4 i was back at the family house
Thankfully, mom was not in sight
I dismissed Anike and reassured her that i didnt need her again for the day but wanted an email of the minutes from the board meeting.
I typed in my code at my room door and wntered the shower straight
Two of my phones started ringing as i came out of the shower. I sighed and deactivated my business lines leaving only my personal phone. I wanted to leave the phones for Anike but i knew she was probably more stressed than i am. I decided to catch some sleep
Sleep came almost immediately my back hit the bed
The vibration from my personal phone wome me up
The time was 4:51. No decent sleep achieved
I chwcked the caller. Monalisa
She called 3 more times so i picked
"Mona…"
"Sweetheart guess what??" She asked
I could detect the fake excitement that laced her voice
I didnt reply
"Surprise, i am at the airport?" She squealed
I removed the phone from my ear, put it on speaker and placed it on the bed
"Isnt that awesome babe"
"I still do not understand why you are misusing the privilege of having my person line " i stated
"C'mon Jay, i know you are excites to see me after five whole days of separation "
I mentally rolled my eyes
"Im going back to sleep" i informed
"Aren't you going to pick me up?" She asked
"My driver will be on his way"
"Jeremy come pick me up right now" she whisper yelled making me suspicious
"Where exactly are you Monalisa"
"At the local airport" she replied like it was normal
"What!"
"I kinda didnt feel line using luxury, i want to feel what it feels to be picked up at a local airport"
"And you didnt get enough of that before you involved yourself in my affairs " i asked pissed
"Just come pick me up Jay, its not a big deal" she whined
"This is for public show right?"
"Jay i hapen to be out in the cold and you are more concerned about my intentions?
"My guards are on their way Monalisa and thats final"
"What if i wanted to remind this commoners who my man is?" She admitted
I hung up and lay down back but on second thoughta i got up and went to my closet.
I dont have the energy for moms drama at all
Just because Monalisas mom and mine were high school best friends and reunited about three years ago, my mom pushed us together…
She chose monalisa, the she animal that only craves for money, power, fame and popularity and she did not want to work for it, well, she's working so hard to be my woman so i guess she is working afterall
Very soon, just very soon, i will disregard mom and make sure she understands she means nothing to me because she obviously is daft.
I sighed and walked out of my room
