Adam watches two of them laughing, he
watches Jaime laughing, he smiles.
”So, you want to tell me what that was all
about, in there? What is the bad blood between
you and that Jimmy guy….and whoof!! The
Mayor’s son? Explains the big @$$ mansion
you got there and the limo …so what’s your
deal, what is this President of Heritage group
you do not want to be a pa-rt off and-”
Jaime stops laughing, he frowns ” Another
silent rule, do not ask questions you have no
right to ask, and my family, the Mayor, the
heritage group, Jimmy..me? is off topics for
you, it was a good laugh, the scene was…well
funny. But you do not want to cross Jimmy
any further and you will not aggravate him. Is
that clear?”
”I do not do well with rules, I think you already
see that and besides I didn’t aggravate him,
didn’t you see the way he spoke to me, calling
me a scalawag, a pimp a slut..your handler!!”
she points at him
”You are a slut Alexander , a Call Girl is just
cl@$$y way to put it” Jaime tells her ”In a way,
he isn’t entirely wrong. ” He says
”A slut you didn’t mind picking up and stuffing
into this stupid dress and taking to a state
dinner with your Mayor and your Jimmy and
told everyone she is his handler”
”A slut who is going to be paid for her
services and that also means that I can decide
to take you wherever I want, stuff you into
whatever dress I like, call or refer to you as I
like, speak to you how I want if I so please,
and I can refer to you as I dim fit, all you just
nee-d to do is be quiet and don’t cause me
further troubles”
”You are an @$$hole Jaime Lockswire!!” she
spat
”Thank you..atleast I am better than you, your
@$$ hole might nee-d to be called another name
since you have so many things going in there”
She gasps..
”First off you are as disgusting as Jimmy in
there. I do not put or allow anyone stick it in
there” she fumes
”A slut has no choice” he says
Adam, se-nsing a fight pulls away
”Oh this one has!!”
”Atleast we agree on something…slut. We are
back to what Jimmy said”
Alexanderdrags herself from out the car and
pushes him backwards, stepping out ” I
deserve respect!!!” she jabs his che-st ”’I
deserve respect as every lady also does!!
Regardless of what I do, regardless of who I
am, I deserve respect!!!!” she jabs him again.
He moves her fin-geraway from his che-st ”You
only get respect when you learn to watch your
mouth and listen to my rules” he nudges her
back poking her che-st between her brea-stwith
his fin-ger, she gasps jabbing him ha-rder.
”They are stupid rules”
”They are not” He jabs her back
”You are stupid” she digs her fin-gerto his
che-st with a swift jab again, he hits her hands
away.
”And you have a dirty mouth” he hols onto her
fin-gerto stop her jabs.
”Atleast this mouth is more decent than your
rotten attitude. I probably see why Jimmy
hates you” she spat to his face
He grimaces stepping closer to her ”You know
nothing Alexandra!” he hisses
”Oh I do not care to know. Since we agree i
am a slut, let me do my services in peace,
don’t drag me to some stupid @$$ dinner to get
insulted by people named Jimmy and others
named Jaime fxxking lockswire!!” she jabs him
again when he lets go off her fin-ger”I will not
be disrespected. You know nothing too..i may
be a slut or a Call Girl, atleast I do not go
around disrespecting people. I earn a living
doing what I do and I do it well, and if you are
so disgusted about the slut-ing, you wouldn’t
be paying for my services or that of Bekky’s so
show some respect Jaime Lockswire””Or else what?” he steps closer to her, his
anger showing in his eyes.
”Or else-” Alexander is angry as well
”Jaime ?” Christine clim-bs down the stairs and
walks to them.. ”Jaime?”
Jaime peels his eyes away from Alexandra, he
turns to find Christine standing there..”Get into
the car Alexander” he says over his shoulders
”I will not be ordered about Jaime Lockswire”
He turns to her, without warning he pulls her
back into the car by grabbing her wa-ist and
pushing her in with swift strength. He shuts the
door, he stares at Adam who enters into the
car and then locks in.
He turns to find Christine staring at him ”why
did you bring her here, what is your plan
Jaime? To upset your father?”
”That has nothing to do with this, she is my
plus one, my handler …she is a necessary
evil”
”for who, your father?”
”No”
”Jimmy’
”No”
”Who then?”
”Can’t I just have a lady and come to a state
dinner without all this? She is my handler”
”Are you into drugs?”
He chuckles ”It doesn’t always nee-d to be
about drugs. Look Christine, you know me, you
have known me for a long time..i have always
been a bad boy, the pa-rty guy, the guy who
goes to the extreme..and i always like my
plans coordinated and my state of affairs
precise…this- what he is asking from me is
just disrupting all of that. And I don’t like that”
”Asking you to be the President of the Heritage
Group is disrupting your plans? You do know
that there is something wrong with you right?
Everyone is fighting for that post, and here you
are having an open nomination to it and you
back down”
”You will do a good job being there, Jimmy
too, everyone else”
”Aha, Jimmy, this is all it is about isn’t it? You
guys nee-d to work your stuffs out, this has
gone on for two long, far too long…just look
at what happened in there”
”I didn’t say it was Jimmy.. I just said I don’t
want it, that’s too much responsibility on my
plate. ”
”And your father thinks you can handle it”
”My father thought wrong”
Christine’s eyes darts to the car ”And she, how
is she a pa-rt of all this?”
”She is my handler, told you”
”You do know that she just stepped on
Jimmy’s toes right? She means more trouble
for you? You nee-d to get her off your turf, and
maybe you should take this..” she trails off
Jaime ru-bs his temple, he sighs ”Jimmy nee-ds
to un-derstand that we don’t want the same
thing and is just backing up the wrong tree..i
want out..i want peace and I want to do what
the hell I want. I do not want this! I want to do
the hell I want ”
”With her?”
”With whomever Christine”
She steps closer to him, touching his face ”I
have been away too long, look how damaged
you are Jaime” she stares into his eyes ”Maybe
I can help you”
”You can’t Christine ”
”I am sorry I left…”
”Why are you apologizing?”
”because if I were around, I wouldn’t’ have let
Jimmy get to you, not like this, I wouldn’t have
allowed you turn into this guy who…cares for
nothing, not anymore..this guy who would have
a handler, whatever that means, this guy who
jeeps running away from responsibilities, this
guy who rather shuns this kind of affairs, walk
out on meetings, with different girls by his side
and all that, why this façade Jaime?”””Who have you been talking to?”
”Oh, the walls have ears. I hear what you have
been up and about, and honesty, I came
back..because I want to help you.”
”You didn’t come back for me”
”Actually I did come back for you. Look, I
know you were surprised to hear me being
listed as a nominee but…my family is pa-rt of
the board and have been for years, so I am
liable to be one and-”
”Ofcourse I wasn’t, equal opportunity- you
should be happy, besides your speech was
excellent”
”Yours would have been top notch if you had
spoken ”
He shakes his head, she continues
”You know, with us together, we would be a
formidable for-ce, Jimmy would have no choice
other than to back down”
”what does that mean?”
”It means that…” she steps closer ”Let me be
the woman you have always wanted me to be
with you ,and let me help you…throu-ghthis
challenges you have …and just maybe you
would rethink your position of p-ulling out .
Imagine, you being the President o Heritage
group ? And me by your side? We would do
great things together and what next from there,
the Mayor would step down eventually and
who is the likely nominee? You! See where I
am going with this?” she touches his face.
He stares into her eyes, no one gets it, no one
actually gets it that he wants none of that. ”You
all want same thing; money, wealth, luxury and
fame and the prestige that goes with it. I just
want to have peace of mind. i do not want to
and I refuse to be lured into it even by you
Christine, you should know me by now, my no
is my no..and I wouldn’t change my routine to
fit into the lifestyle of a president and if I go in
with the way I am…I will be an
embarr@$$ment to the Mayor, and everyone
else. Why don’t you all see that?”
”You are doing it on purpose” she states
”Is that what you were told?”
”That’s what I know”
He shakes his head ”This is me…this has
always been me”
”Well, if that is the case, let me make you
better then” she leans in closer ”You know, for
what is worth, I do miss you Jaime, a lot. We
were good together ” she puts her hand around
his ne-ck ”No! We were amazing together ”’
He doesn’t push her away ”Until you left…” He
pauses, finishing”With my friend!!”
”I am sorry”
”That’s years ago, water un-der the bridge, past,
forgotten. Now we are good friends”
”but I want that back, what we had”
”I don’t think we can have that back, besides,
we were much younger then, stupid”
”Exactly, I acted stupidly, and see how it turned
out. He cheated on me with his second aunt”
”I know right”
”But I am better, back..ready..to start afresh
with you”
”You see, that is what I don’t want”
She sighs ”If you give me a chance, maybe I
can persuade you” she ru-bs herself to him
He takes her hand and unwraps it from his
ne-ck ”Really nice seeing you again Christine,
but..that ship sailed a long time ago”
”So, you rejecting me, for her?” she points to
the car
”No, for me” he leans in and ki-sses her cheeks
”Welcome home Christine, goodnight”
”So I take it you aren’t coming to the Gl@$$
house with everyone?”
”I don’t nee-d anymore drama..ki-ss her
goodnight for me”
”You know you could do it yourself?”
He smiles without saying nothing, he knocks
on the window, the car unlocks, he enters..
”Drive Adam”
Alexandersays without looking at him ”Done
with your girlfriend? Looks like she was ready
to take you all in then and there, maybe you
should just pay her for her services instead,
she looks like one who would bend to your
stupid egocentric rules”
Jaime turns to her ”I swear to God Alexander,
if you don’t shut up…I will make you”
”I dare you!!!” She says to him, her eyes grows
dim with anger, a match for his.

Christine leans in to ki-ss Gemmylyn’s cheeks ,
who pats her cheeks ”Sorry you had to witness
that, guess that is a welcome package for you”
Gemmylyn says to Christine who seats down
beside her.
”It’s fine, used to that banter for years, just
surprised it’s worse.”
”Yes, sadly so. How is he?” Gemmylyn asks
Chirstine.
”That ki-ss was from him anyways” Christine
smiles at her, Gemmylyn returns the smile .
She says to her ”He still se-nds you to me
when he is upset and doesn’t want to come
close to his father”
”for-ce of habit, never dies out. Typical Jaime.
How is the Mayor anyways, with all this?”
”How else, hurt. It tells on him to always have
to deal with this, going on ten years…he wants
what’s best for him”
”But Jaime, doesn’t want it,typical”
Gemmylyn nods ”No, stubborn,and I think it’s
because of Jimmy”
”You think Jimmy is threatening him?”
”Jimmy has always been Jimmy, and Jaime,
will always be Jaime. Two stubborn men, two
proud men..two men who would do what they
think is right. What do you want the Mayor to
do?”
”Foist it on Jaime that’s what!!”‘
”Because you think he deserves it or because
you just want him to lead so you can take a
place where you think it fits?” Gemmylyn looks
into her eyes ”Why did you come back
Christine?”
Christine stares at her, she smiles ”I guess a
mother’s instinct is strong. I came back for
him, but he doesn’t want me…who is that girl
anyways with him?”
”I see. I guess what you know about her is
what I and everyone knows too… He said his
handler”
”And has there been other handlers like her?”
”There was one Bekky he came with last
month, been around him for abit, but…today he
is with someone else, who knows about
tomorrow”
”So you think, he really has changed into
this…man, who has no priority in life other
than women, pa-rties, the extreme bad things?”
Gemmylyn sighs ”he is my son Christine, but I
do not un-derstand why he is doing it, I wish he
would talk to us instead of p-ulling further away
and this thing with Jimmy is all shades of
wrong. The Mayor says he isn’t trying to for-ce
him but he sees a potential in him and he says
the projects and ideas he has..Jaime has, he
has seen it and he would do a great in
Heritage, a good leader but..Jaime doesn’t
want it and I don’t blame him. I know what he
goes throu-gh…he wants out,but that is not
enough reason for him to shut everyone out
and don’t take up opportunities when given”
Christine holds her hands ”Don’t worry Gem, I’ll
bring him back to you, and the Mayor and he
would be the President, trust me and jimmy
can take several back seats”’
”Jimmy…” Gemmylyn shakes her head ”he
always wasn’t like this”
”Jimmy choose his pa-rt, so it’s his fault the
Mayor doesn’t give him his time anymore”
”But still, he also deserves a chance ”
”Not here to talk about Jimmy, I am here to
get my man back, and maybe, stand with him
side by side when he gets that post,who
knows what comes from there” Christine
smiles.
”Welcome back Christine ” Gemmylyn says
standing as the security comes for her to
escort her out to meet the Mayor so they go to
the Gl@$$ house.
”Nice seeing you again Gem” they hu-g, the
Mayor’s wife leaves.
Christine watches her, then she turns walking
away to her car.
She really did come to get her man back,and
let him be the next President of the Heritage
Group. Being the wife of the President of a
multi-billion oil and gas company was
everything,it would be an achievement,and if he
becomes Mayor…that would be more than a
little something.
She smiles.
It would be all checks to her bucket lists.
But who the hell was that girl?.
*
”Drive Adam” was the only thing he said after
she dared him.
Oh, she would be sorry,she would be.
Alexanderwhose eyes are dimmed with anger
stares away ”I thought so”
!!!
If all the women he is always with ki-ss his toes
just because,she wouldn’t be one of them.No
way.She is getting paid for a service it didn’t
mean she had to take nonse-nse because he
was waving a few bills.
””!! She mutters
The car is silent all throu-ghthe ride back to
his mansion,he alights and disappears into the
building.
Adam is staring at her ”Ma’am!!”
”Great!!!” angrily she leaves the car,and enters
into the mansion,following the pa-rt she and
Adam had followed,touching the wall to reveal
a door which she pushed to lead her into the
parlor.
A few minutes later she is standing in the
middle of the room,she finds him without his
tie,his sleeves rolled up,before she could
un-derstand what he intends to do,with quick
strides her gets to her,startling her as he lifts
her off her feet,walking to the be-d he holds her
ti-ght as he places her on his thi-ghs as he
seats down ha-rd on the be-d.
”What in- the hell- Let me- let me go Jaime
Lockswire I swear I -what are you doing? What-
let- damnit Jaime” she struggles
He had her facing down on his legs,one hand
holding both hands ti-ght,his elbow pinning her
down as he opens his palm after he rips the
dress away from her exp-osed bu-tt, with palms
open wide, he brings it down ha-rd to her ba-re
bottom.
WHAMP!!! WHAMP!!! WHAMP!!!
He spa-nks her as she cries out in pain..
”Are you going to be respectful?”
”Never, let me go” she struggles angrily. But it
is no use.
Whamp!!! Whamp!!!
His palm flat on her but painfully..again, again
and again.
Eventually she stops struggling and cursing..
He stops..breathing ha-rd.
”That would teach you!” he says angrily.
But she is quiet.Suddenly her shoulders begin
to rise and drop,her bo-dy begins to quake.
Jaime’s breathe catches in his lungs.
She was crying.
”Alexander?’
