I know it’s too late to say sorry now
Jhonia sat with Mrs. Pinnock at the breakfast table while she ate. While her mind was elsewhere, staring out into space, Mrs. Pinnock noticed her absent-mindedness and wondered why.
“Is it because you were shot at?” Mrs. Pinnock asked her as Nearce was entering the dining room, in shock he stood and looked at Jhonia.
“What?!!” He asked in shock, shouting to shake Jhonia from her lack of reality!
“Huh? No!” Jhonia said and stood up! Nearce grabbed her arm, turning her facing him!
“No! You are smiling, do you think dying is a good thing? You got shot at and I’m lost to know that! Why?” Nearce repeated her no to her, then asked before stating and asking.
“What is”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“Nearce.” Jhonia was cut off by Mrs. Pinnock!
“What mom, what?” Nearce asked his mother who called him? He was angrier than Mrs. Pinnock was when she heard about it! “Who was it?” Nearce asked and Jhonia finally looked up, meeting with his eyes.
“It’s none of your concern.” Jhonia said to him!
“Tell me!” Nearce yelled at her, scaring everyone except Jhonia!
“You’re hurting me!” Jhonia stated as he was squeezing her arm.
“Tell me, Jhonia!” Nearce said calmly, loosening his hand.
“Aren’t you going to say something or are you just standing there and staring at me?” Nearce asked, looking at her.
Why do you even care!!!, Jhonia yelling thoughts.
She then took a deep breath and looked away from him.
“What happens to me no longer concerns you, Nearce, allow me to be on my way.” Jhonia said, pulling her arm away from him, immediately Nearce grabbed her onto her again.
“Come with me.” Nearce said pulling Jhonia with him, out of the house and to his car. Jhonia noticed that it was new, it was now a Jeep! He took her to it and opened the door, putting her to sit and putting on her seatbelt!
“Sit!” He told her, making sure she wouldn’t get out once he walked away from her side of the car. He then went to his side, got in and sat himself in then started the car and drove out the compound.
“I’m sorry, I should have been paying more attention to you even if you say so, I shouldn’t. Who did it? Who fired a weapon at you? I want to know please tell me!” Nearce apologized and said to Jhonia, then questioned her. She suddenly turned her head looking at him… Meanwhile!
“Yes!” Lusinly answer after entering Kyhe office.
“The files were already with Jhonia, call her and inquire where it is?” Kyhe said to her without looking away from his computer. Lusinly proceeded with calling Jhonia, but the phone went to her voicemail!
“She’s not picking!” Lusinly said after ending the third voicemail.
“Obviously, she’s not at work calling her cellphone.” Kyhe said to her, Lusinly nodded and opened her phone once again but paused!
“I don’t have her cell phone number.” Lusinly said, instantly Kyhe looked up from his computer to her… His facial expression went from calm to angry. He then pushed back his chair a bit and began going through the files in his drawer looking for the Jhonia file. After some time of looking for it, he got up to check his safe. When he remembered Lusinly was still there, he turned to tell her to leave… Just then Kuwain entered!
“Shit! What happened to you?” Kuwain asked? With concern as Kyhe was not looking well!
“Do you by any chance… Do you have Secretary Smith’s personal cell phone number?” Kyhe asked with a little bit of hope in his eyes.
“Yeah! Suddenly, it seems Sky can’t run without her!” Kuwain said with a smile making his way to sit down, as he retrieved his phone and dial Jhonia’s number.
“There is nothing to report, plus it was over the weekend. Nearce why the hell are you making my issues your problem?” Jhonia said to him before she then yelled, asking.
“Because you’re my wife.” He said with a sudden stop of the car… Silence went throughout the car as they stared at each other… Jhonia’s phone began ringing and she quickly looked away from him, as his words replayed in her head!
“Because you’re my wife.”
“Hello!” Nearce picked up her phone.
“Ah…! Where is Jhonia? Send her the phone please!” Kuwain hesitated because he did expect a male companion to take her call, he asked and requested?
“She’s busy!” Nearce stated to the caller and ended the call! Jhonia turned back to him and realized it was her phone and not his.
“Who was it? Why did you take my call?” Jhonia questioned him in a rather angry tone.
“What happened?” Kyhe asked as both him and Lusinly stared at Kuwain questioningly.
“Well, he said she was busy!” Kuwain said to Kyhe with one of his eyebrows raised!
“He?” Kyhe questions the ‘he’ Kuwain speaks of.
“Let me try.” Lusinly said with a smile, changing the subject! Kuwain showed her his phone; she quickly collected the number, and made the call!
“Hello!” Jhonia answered.
“It’s Lusinly, I thought you were busy?” Lusinly asked after telling Jhonia who she was.
“It’s complicated! Ah, why did you call?” Jhonia said to her, then proceeded to ask.
“Oh, ah… Wait. President ah, the file’s information?” Lusinly seemed shy to speak so she turned and asked Kyhe.
“Tell her, it’s the file from last Wednesday!”
“Okay, I’m near the office. I will stop by and send it myself!”
Kyhe said, Jhonia overheard and responded!
“Okay.” Lusinly said before the call, Jhonia placed the phone in her hoodie pocket!
“Do you have to go?” Nearce asked.
“Yes, I do and if you don’t mind let’s go.” Jhonia said to him, as he started the car, he stared at her!
“Why didn’t you come work for me?” Nearce asked her as he clenched his teeth together.
“You and I know that was and will never be possible!” Jhonia said to him. After some time, he arrived a distance away from the company and stopped! He grabbed Jhonia, pulled her closer to him and pressed his lips against her, after a second Jhonia bit his lower lips and pulled back! While Emmari was walking in their direction, with surprise she took a photo of them kissing with a smile.
“The next time you try it, you will be in the hospital, because it won’t be your lip but your tongue.” Jhonia said and got out of the car and closed the door, Emmari avoided having Jhonia seeing her.
“I know it’s too late to say sorry now, but at least I want to.” Nearce said to himself as he watched Jhonia walking away… Jhonia reached up to the company and walked up to the door and the guard stopped her, she then remembers she’s not dress for work nor is she wearing her badge.
“I’m sorry, it’s sort of an emergency. My name is Jhonia Smith, President Knight Secretary.” Jhonia said quickly, giving her name and position in Sky! The guard stares her down and up! Then show her in.
“She’s still hot!” The guard said, caressing the back of his head, after Jhonia walked away… Everyone was staring at her. She arrived and everyone from her department was staring at her including Kyhe and Kuwain.
“How did she manage to make a pair of jeans and sweatshirt look good?” Kyhe asked as he and Kuwain stood in his office looking out the window and down at Jhonia, who was going through her files, after some time she was smiling at a blue file holder.
“That’s my best friend!” Kuwain said, looking at Jhonia, as she turned towards the office… She was about to go up the stairs when she met Lusinly and gave her the files holder then left.
“I thought I was your best friend?” Kyhe asked after watching her leave.
“I’m your somewhat best friend.” Kuwain responded glaring at him, Lusinly giggled softly at them.
