LEASED OUT SECRET
Khalid was speechless, he didn't even know what to say, he felt sorry for how he had acted.
He felt like he should just go back to the club, and bring her out from there, she isn't meant to be there, she is worth more than that.
His mind kept asking him, "but why would she have stopped so low to throw herself on me, it was so bashful and even if other ladies would do that", he wished she never did that.
But... He remembered what Rashid said about him being the person at fault for not revealing all that happened to him, it clicked again in his head.
"Wait...wait, come again Rashid, you said something about you being the person that messed everything up, how is that.
Is there something you are not telling me?", Khalid asked with sweat creased over his brow.
"Yes, I said something pertaining to that and yes, I am partially the cause of it.
You remembered the day I blackmailed you into snapping your nudes"
....ermmm and so what happened after that",
"I took the picture with my phone, I sent it to...
"You sent it to who?", Khalid asked.
"I sent to it to Fiona, I did that because I wasn't sure there would come a time you would have the guts to confront her.
I did that so that to both will see and talk things over, I am so sorry but I didn't know it would take a very bad turn.
Please don't be so mad at me, I was very happy when she replied that she would be coming over.
You know how good I am, you definitely know, I just sent it to her.
I am so sorry, what will I do right now to remedy the situation at hand?", Rashid asked Khalid, he wasn't even happy at himself for having not told Khalid, at start.
Khalid was quiet he didn't say anything, right then he was not mad at Rashid, but rather himself, he was thinking of how he would make things right, he didn't know how he would, but he wanted to make things work between him and Fiona.
He knew she would be so mad at him, but he didn't care how long, he only wished she would forgive him for the emotional torture and pains he had put her through.
"Rashid, if I say I am not angry, I would be lying, but it won't make us Quarrel, we have gone a long way", Khalid said as he bursted out laughing.
"Are you really laughing about this situation, I put you through?", Rashid asked.
"What to you want me to do?, Do you expect me to cry?, Ohh no, you know I won't do that, I just have to make things right, that's all.
I think it's going to be hard for me and for her to get over it, but there's nothing else that I can do.
I don't even want you to help me through, just stay where you are and face your shit, we all have our shits to face, I will just stay here and face mine.
Women can be difficult sometimes, but I know how to face it.
She is quite easy to handle, Soo.... Don't worry about me, rather worry about yourself.
Soo.... You've got a new chick there right?", Khalid asked, with a smirk written all over his face.
"If I say I haven't gotten one, then I would be lying.
Damn the girl is hot, like she's so smoking hot, but she's so stubborn and sometimes....
I really don't know but she is so tough to handle, but you bet I know how to tame her type.
Just a week more, and she will be screaming my name and then boom, am off", Rashid said.
"Shut up, you talk like it's so easy for you, how many women have you had apart from Fiona, you will be talking blahblahblah, damn bullshit.
I won't be surprised, if you end up getting married to her...
"Shut up, you fool, who is talking about marriage right now, I might be too religious, but I am not ready for marriage.
Right now, I got so many issues to tackle and marriage is not among, so shut your mouth", Rashid countered.
"Alright, alright, loverboy, don't say I did not warn you, because I have never heard you talk about a woman like this.
She is stubborn and blah blah, anyways do have a good day, and stay nice, you said it's jamai
"I said it's Jamaica", Rashid countered.
"A black girl for you won't be bad, it's if your dad will agree to that".
"That's true, talking about my dad, how is he?", Rashid asked.
"He's all good, you know that man never grows old", Khalid replied.
"Alright, that's great, I have been wanting to call him, but whenever I remember the state of the company here, it brings down my spirit, Soo...
Maybe when I am done tackling everything, I will surely give him a call directly, cause we haven't been talking directly", Rashid said, as he sat down back on his seat.
"You mean the fraud stuff, how did all those stuff happened, I am quite alarmed, did you never signed the money to be sent to them?", Khalid asked.
"I did, but..., What's my problem right now is that, they aud they never got to receive any money, so which do you think I should believe.
I have to believe myself, because I am very sure that I sent this company a huge sum of money.
When I first came to this company, I never believed it was mine, it was so.... It wasn't good at all, it looked dilapidated.
Right now, it's kinda getting better at least, it has a beautiful entry which is blissful to one's sight.
I am just having a big problem tackling it, and everyone trusts the head of management, Mr Reynolds.
They all say, he's a very good man and won't do such a thing, everyone is vouching for him, and me too, I just don't know but he seems like a nice man..
So which do you expect me to believe right now?", Rashid asked.
"I prefer you don't believe anyone, not even yourself, I prefer you just follow your instincts, that's the best for now.
Your instincts will put you through", Khalid said.
They talked over less important stuffs, and which Khalid hung up.
He remembered everything that had transpired between Fiona and him.
He actually sided what Rashid said about him not being serious and tormenting himself.
The first day he tasted Fiona, he had sworn to have her all to himself.
He only said that to Rashid so that Rashid would think he was over Fiona, but seemed like Rashid found our what he was trying to drive at and was two steps ahead of him.
He wanted with all his might to correct what ever had happened between him and Fiona, he did not even know how to go about it.
He was sure that he was going to right his wrongs.
There was just one thing in his mind, and that was to give her a call, he did not want to call her indirectly by calling MAMA, he wanted to call her directly on her line.
He was sure that was the first step in making things right.
He rustled through his contact list, he finally saw her number.
He held his phone tightly as his hands tightened around it, he was sure he was taking the right step, but he didn't know how to go about it.
He finally summoned up courage and dialed her number.
It was halfway before it rang once.
"Hello Fiona, can you please come over", Khalid said, he was perplexed about the situation.
"Please??, You don't have to say that, I am your whore remember?.
You could have just ordered and I would be driving my way to your house, I am coming", with that said, Fiona hung up.
Khalid wondered what had actually given her the guts to say such words, he knew he was deep in trouble.
