CHAPTER 10

The day already started off wrong for Jason as he ran on his treadmill, breaking out into a good sweat. The workout was much needed after he couldn't clear his head from Alyssa. The great time they just had was now possibly thrown down the drain. Maybe it was his lifestyle that caused her to run as fast as she did. Rightfully so, he understood why she would run. His life was becoming more and more of a hell. As he thought this right on queue Dan screams his name.

Jason shook his head annoyed. Like clockwork, Dan wanted to fuss at him about the event that happened last night.

'Jason!" Dan appeared around the corner in a rush.

'Dan, I would say nice to see you but I will be lying," Jason replied, wiping his face with his towel as he stopped the machine.

'What the hell happened last night? Did you hurt Melissa?" Jason lifted his eyebrows astounded by her lies.

'Hurt her? Di

CHAPTER 11

The house was nothing to be admired. It wasn't even Jason's type of neighborhood, but he never judged where she stayed. Cautiously he walked up to the door, taking off his shades as he did so hesitantly knocking on the door. An older man answered with a shotgun in his hand ready to shoot Jason at any small step.

'Who are you?" The man asked looking Jason in the eyes. Jason wasn't afraid of the man he assumed was Diamond's father.

'I'm sorry to come here unannounced. I need to speak with Diamond."

'You're Jason?"

He nodded. The man placed his gun down. 'Come in, she's expecting you."

Confused Jason entered the house. 'She knew I was coming?" The man placed his gun down.

'She knew once the lawyer's received the paperwork one of you Sanders men would show up. I was expecting the older Sanders, but she tells me you are alright. She's in here." The man walked into the living

CHAPTER 9

Alyssa walked into the Sanders building more nervous than the first time. This time she was dressed in her finest purple dress that stopped at her knees and her flats that matched. No heels or she would fall and embarrass herself in front of Jason. Something she didn't want to happen. Maybe sex again was okay.

She added a little hint of makeup, but not a lot. Strangely it was deserted. Barely any cars were in the parking lot, unlike before, and hopefully, there'd be no secretary either. She walked in as her prayers were unanswered. Alyssa sucked in her teeth in annoyance as she walked by her.

'We're closed." Melissa looked up from her bag she was packing, noticing it was Alyssa trying to walk by. 'Oh, it's you. I should've known I would be seeing you tonight." Her attitude was still very rude.

Alyssa stopped and turned back to her with as much attitude as she could conjure.
