“So you have?” He smirked, eyes lighting up. “What’s it like? I bet it’s pretty as fuck and smells like exotic fruit or some shit, huh?”
“Bro, chill. I’m not having that conversation with you.”
He grinned, nodding like he already knew. “Yeah...she got that vibe. That shit must becrazy. Lowkey, I hate that you got to her ass before I did.” He paused, then shook his head. “On second thought...nah, that’s all you, man. Nyx look like the type to mess a nigga’s head up. I don’t need that kind of distraction in my life. I’m trying to stay focused and make this money.”
There was a light knock at the door, then a petite woman with a long braid going down her back, stepped in.
Ocean lifted his gaze. “Hey, Sanya, what’s up?”
She paused, her eyes taking in every inch of me before offering a sheepish smile. “Oh...sorry. I didn’t realize you weren’t alone.”
“It’s cool,” he replied. “But feel free to stick your tongue back in your mouth. My brother is too pussy whipped to give yousome dick right now.” He stood up and smoothed out his jacket. “Me? I’ll dick you down as soon as I’m done here.”
She giggled, and I shook my damn head.
This was how my brother talked to women, and for some reason, they let his ass get away with it.
“Actually, I was coming back here to let you know that someone was asking for you up front. But I’m still going to hold you to what you just said.”
“No worries. You know I always make good on my word.” He moved from around the desk and slapped her on the ass before looking back at me. “You coming?”
My phone buzzed in my pocket.
“Yeah, I’ll be out in a minute.”
“Bet,” Ocean said as he strolled out of the office, still gripping Sanya’s ass like he owned it.
I pulled out my phone and glanced at the screen.
Nyx: Thanks for the flowers. They really cheered me up.
Nyx: Also, thanks for giving me some space. I just needed some time to myself.
Shade: Understood. Why did you need cheering up? Did everything go okay at your father’s birthday dinner?
The typing bubbles blinked on the screen, vanished, then reappeared.
Nyx: Yeah. Everything went fine.
I wasn’t convinced.
Shade: I feel like you’re not telling me the truth. But it’s cool. Whenever you’re ready to talk, I’m here.
Not calling her or just popping up at her crib was fucking killing me. But I was doing my best to respect her space.
Nyx: Thanks. So what’s up? What you got going tonight?
Shade: Not much. My brother is here, so we’re kicking it at his club.
Nyx: Really? So you’re being bombarded by ass and titties right now huh?
I laughed.
Shade: I wouldn’t say all that.
Nyx: Don’t make me come up there.
Shade: Why would you do that?
