Jay turned up to look at him. Sleepy eyes stared.
"You liked him from the getgo."
"Maybe." He responded as they both slept.
I touched the first note. The rhythm and everything in between was perfect. The air conditioner gave the right temperatures. This was the only place I never let anyone come to. The room was filled with various instruments. I bought them from the flight three years ago. Jay was from a band trip or something. I had thought of teaching him on how to play all instruments. That is why I left my watch on the seat. I took a deep breath before someone destroyed my peace. I looked at my phone. It was T.
"Hey." I placed it on speaker as I headed to the bedroom to change from the bathrobe to pajamas.
"Hey so where are you?"
"My house."
"I know why the aeroplane boy never contacted you again."
"Something to do with Pipop?"
"Yeah. He had someone run through your IG. The only person that you spoke to was him."
"So simple for him?"
"Maybe. He threatened the kid."
Actually three years ago I was less violent. I always watched as people did the dirty work. This guy knew it. He wanted to take up everything hence had to 'kill' my mom and finish off my dad. Months later he noted I was also powerful hence looked for all my support sources.
"With..."
"Unknown. He just asked guys to reach the place and finish it off. Good enough he's alive."
"Should I leave him alone?"
"You liked him?"
"He was the only person that made me smile in do long."
"Well, something else is up." T stated as he continued using the computers in the form room more to his advantage.
"He's using your name on debtors."
"Leave that at bay for now. Locate the guys place for day three."
"So we'll be on the floor three days from now?" He asked uncertain.
"Yeah dad has another slow mission I'll call you later for that."
"Okay final question. Less serious."
"Ask." I responded. Serious as usual.
"Are you coming back boss? I miss you." I hung up and skipped on my bed. I reread the messages we sent each other years ago. Nothing serious. No flirting. Just some genuine real talk.
"Hello." T texted. He had hacked Tiw's account. No reply came. It was late. Who else would be awake at this hour. He removed his glasses as he hoped on his bed.
"Can I have some coffee. Americano and a latte." T gave his order. Once given he walked to the table and handed me the papers he printed on Jays stuff.
I took a sip of the bitter drink. It always refreshed my morning. Seconds later a trio walked into the cafe. First I noted on Jays voice but I dared not turn.
"Deal with this." I stated as I handed him a paper clearly written GT group. He swallowed his drink hard and turned to me.
"What!!!" He stated. Nearly everyone in the cafe turned to us.
"No attention." I stated as I placed some cookies in his wide agape mouth. The trio I was trying to avoid turned to us. I walked out with confused emotions. Maybe I was...shy. I stood near some window as I observed Jay keenly.
They walked to T and sat beside him.
"No attention." He whispered to himself.
"Hey." Shyl stated as T looked up. First he spotted Jay. The papers were still there. On top a capital letter J was printed in italics.
"Silly boss." He said with a near whisper as he placed the papers below the computer ahead of him. He faked a smile.
"Plane boy." He finally spoke out loud.
"Hey I thought you don't remember me."
"Who'd forget?" He stated as he showed him one of the photos taken during that time. The trio laughed as he seemed irritated. Of all the people his boss could be interested in why this guy who made fun of him infront of many people?
"Too bad my phone's gone. I'd send it to the whole facualty." He spoke then took a sip of his cocoa drink.
"You like sweet stuff?" T spoke. No reply came.
"What happened to it?"
"Nothing much." Tiw then arrived noisily after ordering his drink.
"Guys someone texted me in my own account." T chocked on his drink. He pushed his glasses up.
"Whose this guy?" He asked them as he showed them the hello message.
"He's Dews buddy." Gene responded as he stood and walked out leaving the trio there.
"Hey." A voice came from behind me. I turned silent.
"Gene what a surprise." I said faking a smile.
"I know why you are here."
"I was heading back to pick some sheets."
"Heading back...really?"
"Yeah." I responded as I begun walking away. My heart was throbbing. Then he held my hand. Perfect it'd explode.
"Shy to see him?"
"Just going for shit!" I said now irritated. I never liked it when someone played with me. Too sensitive for thought. I removed his hand from mine and gave a fierce look.
"Okay." He whispered raising his hands and walking away. I took deep breaths before I walked towards the entrance.
A call came. T picked it up and the three were silent.
"I heard we have a new mission."
"Too strict but yes." T responded to the female voice.
"Where is your girlfriend?" It was Ricks voice. They all looked interested.
"Here I am." She appeared beside her.
"T where is he?"
"Dew just walked out.eeting time maybe later."
"He is odd or am I the only one noticing it?"
"He behaves as when he was in love with you." A female voice responded. T signaled.
"Who is also there? With T." Rick stated and the three appeared. Then Dew walked to them. Silent.
"Just gossiping of me?" He spoke when everyone was silent. They all turned to him.
"Introductions?" Rick stated.
"Who should do it? You me?"
"I ..." He was silent. He knew denying it would be harsh to them and maybe his love cycle would come yet again.
"The ladies are Winny and Cecil." Dew stated and picked the papers below the computer. His eyes met Jays. The strand if hair still rubbing the corner of his eye. I wished to move it aside but dared not. I blinked my imagination away and walked off. The meeting had to be cut off.
