JACK

A lot of things sure happened that night.. The police had showed up after the dust had cleared,.. Itā€™s a shame that they canā€™t be relied onā€¦ Marcus was later arrested and taken into custody, The police then asked Me and Gina to give a statement about what happened and we did, after that everyone dispersed.

Julia was excited everything was over, despite what Marcus wanted to do to her, she pleaded for leniency for him when the police promised to show him pepper ?ā€¦ He later confessed and exposed those that were involved with him and they too were arrested, because of his easy cooperation, He was given a lighter prison sentence in court.

After that, life was back to normal.. Julia had proceeded to launch the new branch of AMTEX in Abuja, and there was quite a lot of crowd in the opening of the new branch.

After the opening of the new branch of AMTEX, Julia and I returned to Lagos in style.. After experiencing our journey together, she booked a flight for us back to Lagos and I have to admit it, it was very relaxing and comfortable.

After we had arrived in Lagos 2 hours later, Julia and I parted waysā€¦ The first thing I did after I left the airport was to see my mom, She was excited to see me and asked why I had suddenly disappeared and I didnā€™t hesitate to tell her everything that happened, My mother was excited that I was alive and suggested that I take Juliaā€™s job offer and leave my driving job.

A week passed since I returned from Abuja, I resumed my work at Flashco and I was generously paid for driving Julia to Abujaā€¦

And speaking of Julia, we havenā€™t talked since we parted ways at the airport.. Iā€™ve been thinking hard about her job offerā€¦ Itā€™s not like I donā€™t want it but Women have their own wahala and the unexpected might happen, besides I didnā€™t want to make myself cheap in front of her. So I decided to consult my fellow driver and friend Johnson, his response was quite obvious as soon as I told him everything.

.

Johnson āž” Jackoā€¦ I swear your Brain no dey function wellā€¦ See job dey you go get cool cash you dey here dey drive? Besides from where you get that pride from? Yiu dey say you no want look cheapā€¦ My brother, nobody wet dey hustle money look cheap, in fact when money dey.. Person no dey look cheap.. I abeg go do the job jare.

.

Jack āž” Johnson! You too like money.

.

Johnson āž” Who no like better thing? Besides that Julia olosho wet yiu dey follow, if na me be you, I go impregnate am.

.

Jack āž” Why you come talk that? Your talk no reasonable at all.

.

Johnson āž” Guy! You be man at all.. You no dey see opportunity? At the age way she dey, she go fit marryā€¦ I punch your ticket for her w-mb.

.

Jack āž” Guy.. You dey craze!

.

Johnson āž” Dey there dey form..

..

After hearing Johnsonā€™s talk, I decided to go back to Julia and accept her job offer. Later that day as I got home, I spotted Johanna in a car parked in front of my house.. I approached her and she opened her car for me to get in.

.

Jack āž” Hey!

.

Johanna āž” Hey..itā€™s been a while..

.

Jack āž” Yeah.. Nice ride by the way.

.

Johanna āž” Thanksā€¦ Iā€™ve missed you dearly..

.

Jack āž” Is that a love confession?

.

Johanna āž” (laughs) No.. You know what I mean.. I missed your third leg.

.

Jack āž” (laughs) Ohā€¦ Well about that.. Iā€™m seeing someone now and weā€™re going steady.

.

Johanna āž” I seeā€¦ So you love her?

.

Jack āž” I do..

.

Johanna āž” Iā€™m so happy for you.. Well, Iā€™m not here for us to f-ck.. I also have some news for youā€¦ My husband and I split.. So Iā€™ve gotten half of his stuff, so Iā€™ll be relocating overseas to meet with my kids..

.

Jack āž” Iā€™m sorry this happened to you

.

Johanna āž” Itā€™s okay.. I asked for it.

.

Jack āž” So this is our last meeting then?

.

Johanna āž” Yeah..

.

In that moment, Johanna reached out and kissed me, we kissed lustfully for a while before we stopped, after that, she removed my wedding ring and gave it to me.

.

Johanna āž” Here.. I want you to have this.

.

Jack āž” I canā€™t take thisā€¦ Itā€™s yours..

.

Johanna āž” Take it.. I donā€™t really need itā€¦ Besides this is my parting gift to you.. It costs 600,000naira. You can sell it if you want but Iā€™d like you to keep it in case you ever think of getting married.

.

My ear twitched as i heard the amount, I collected the ring ? and thanked her for the gift.. After that, Johanna and I said our last farewells and then parted ways, I came down from the car and she drove awayā€¦ I stood and watched as her car disappeared into the distance.. I looked at the ring she gave me and shoved it into my pocketā€¦ By tomorrow God willing. Iā€™ll be heading straight to AMTEX to get back my job.

.

JULIA

What a night! Everything happened so fast and the ending was unexpected.. Here I thought I was going to die but thankfully God intervened, Jack was the hero of the hour but the police took all the credit.

Marcus was arrested that night, but before he was taken away, I made sure I gave him a final farewell by firing his a** on the spot. The inspector of Police who was sent by my Uncle promised me that Marcus would be dealt with severely, ā€¦ Knowing the animalistic nature of the Nigerian police force, I pleaded leniency on Marcus part asking them to spare his life and allowed him to face Judgment in court.

As promised, Jack stayed with me closely in case of any uprising threats and speaking of threats.. Marcus had given out the names of the BOD that collaborated with him to get rid of me, because of his cooperation, Marcus was given a light prison sentence.. Before I went back to Lagos, I made sure I fired all the BODs and in return for Ginaā€™s help in my rescue, she became my personal assistant and I gave her the privilege to choose new board members..

Finally, The new AMTEX branch here in Abuja was finally opened and it sure was quite a grand opening because the media were there and some couple of politicians showed up as well, besides their reason for coming was just to share the spotlight and boost their public image.

After the opening of the new AMTEX branch, Jack and I headed back to Lagos but this time around, We had a first class flight ? no more traveling on the road.

2 hours later, we arrived at Lagos and went our separate waysā€¦ I still reminded Jack that my job offer was still open and as I promised, that I would triple his feeā€¦ He said he needed a time to think ? about it and that he would give me his reply, after that he was gone.

I was relieved when I resumed back at work the next dayā€¦ There was a little change of atmosphere at AMTEX, everything else looked strange.

With the new management in the company , AMTEX was better than it was before and work was done more faster and efficientlyā€¦ Every one was busy dedicating their time to do their work.. I too was stacked with work, and I was back to my busy self but I was sometimes distracted with the thought of Jack.

A week had passed since we arrived at Lagos together and there was no sign of him not even a call, Now that Marcus was out of the picture he and I were now steady couples but I was surprised that he didnā€™t show upā€¦ I couldnā€™t help myself thinking about him, I really missed him so much,.. I wanted to call him but I didnā€™t have his number, even if I did I wouldnā€™t call him, I donā€™t want to look so cheap or desperate.

So since he was unavailable, I decided to use my time wisely.. Now that I had gotten a new lease in life, I decided that I wouldnā€™t dedicate all my time to work, I decided to hang out and socialize.. I wasnā€™t quite familiar with the cool fun places in Lagos but I manage to hang out anywaysā€¦ During my wanderings, I met with one lady at a supermarket, Her name is Denise.

Denise is one those wealthy housewives that do nothing except only to gossip and to sit at home and look pretty for their husbands.. Iā€™ve seen lots of lazy women but none of them was as lazy as Denise but despite that sheā€™s smart and an all rounder.

Her husband owns lots of petroleum wells in places around Nigeria ?? and because of that, Denise never lacks cash, Her husband always sends her money to sustain her, so while fooling her husband that she does nothing, she uses the money and buys plots of land and shares from companies,.. What she did was a smart move and I respected her for that.

As soon as Denise and I met, we became friends.. Sometimes after work, I would visit her house and talk or sometimes itā€™s the other way around.. I love having her around because sheā€™s a funny person and always has interesting topics to talk about.

One Sunday evening, I was in my house together with her and we were talking and the topic we were discussing about was centered around Men.. I told her about my relationship with Marcus and then Jack and she listened with rapt attention, after I was done, she spoke her mind about the matter.

.

Denise āž” Men! Theyā€™re annoying but interesting creatures. Theyā€™re arenā€™t like us.

.

Julia āž” I donā€™t understand.

.

Denise āž” Well, let me be straight forward! We women are complicated and full of problems.. We hardly make our minds about what we want and we tend to put our problems on men.. But men are different.. Theyā€™re a direct and they know what they want..

.

Julia āž” Its a shame youā€™re slandering your own kindā€¦ Men are deceitful liars.

.

Denise āž” (laughs) My dear Julia.. We are the biggest liars.. Men lie to woo or impress us but we women lie in almost everything we do..

.

Julia āž” Whatever.. Men will always be men.

.

Denise āž” Anywaysā€¦ Do you love this Jack of yours?

.

Julia āž” Of course I love him.. I wouldnā€™t be with him if I wasnā€™t.

.

Denise āž” Hmm, itā€™s rare to see a well made woman date a guy with almost nothingā€¦ So will you marry him if he ask you to?

.

Julia āž” No, no, no, noā€¦ No way.

.

Denise āž” Why not? Because heā€™s not your standard?

.

Julia āž” No.. Itā€™s not thatā€¦ Itā€™s just that.. I donā€™t want marital life.

.

Denise āž” What??? Did I just hear you right?

.

Julia āž” Yes.. I donā€™t want any to do with marriage.. Being married sucks.

.

Denise āž” Unbelievable.. Juliaā€¦ Are you sure youā€™re okay?ā€¦ I donā€™t believe a word you just saidā€¦ In my opinion, I think youā€™re afraid of commitment.

.

Julia āž” What? No.. Iā€™m a committed person.. Iā€™m committed to my work..

ā€¦

Denise āž” Work is different.. Itā€™s just that youā€™re afraid of having kids and being saddled with motherly responsibilities.. Iā€™ve seen women like you.. They all claim they donā€™t want marriage but in truth, itā€™s the commitment youā€™re afraid of..

.

Julia āž” So what?.. I love my life as it is and I donā€™t want any distractions.. Kids are a nuisance and being a housewife is not my thing.. Itā€™s a just of time and potential.

.

Denise āž” Ahemā€¦ So youā€™re saying Iā€™m wasting my time, huh?

.

Julia āž” Sorry.. I didnā€™t mean it that way.

.

Denise āž” Look Julia.. Marriage is like a test.. Youā€™ll have to be patient to bear with it and kids, theyā€™re the best gift or treasure a woman could ever have. A womanā€™s pride and joy is her children..

.

Julia āž” Kids are a distractionā€¦ I canā€™t tolerate distraction.

.

Denise āž” Better come to your senses.. Women who follow this path end up regretting in the end.

.

Julia āž” Not all of them.

.

Denise āž” Yes but most of them.. God! Whoever raised you didnā€™t do great job.

.

Julia āž” Donā€™t ever say that.. My uncle did a great job.

.

Denise āž” Oh.. So you were raised by a man? No wonder.. Look take my advice if you want. Youā€™re cheating yourself and besides your life is great, youā€™re rich and a smart woman, and you have a real man in your life.. You shouldnā€™t be afraid of getting married.

.

Julia āž” Thanks for the advise but Iā€™ll stick to my plan.. I love the way I live my life.

.

Denise āž” Well.. If thatā€™s what you want go ahead but remember.. Our destiny isnā€™t in our hands.. Itā€™s in Godā€™s hands and your Fate has already be decided.. The best part about it is, you never know how your life is going to turn outā€¦ If you donā€™t mind.. Iā€™d like to go back to my crib.. Itā€™s getting late.. See you around Julia. Have a good night.

.

Julia āž” You too Denise.

.

Denise soon left the house and I was soon left alone in the house,.. After a while, I took my bath and laid down on my bed checking out the gross market of drugs ?ā€¦ In that moment, I began to think about what Denise and I talked aboutā€¦ Marriage has never ever crossed my mind before, besides I wonder whatā€™s the joy in marriage ?? Itā€™s just a burden,ā€¦ First one has to deal with the kids, and then thereā€™s the housework stuff and all that commitment.. I canā€™t handle all that.. Besides Iā€™m committed to my work, i canā€™t dedicate myself to another thing.. Maybe I can handle deal with relationships but marriages is definitely out of the picture, After a while of thought, I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

.

The next morningā€¦ I got up early for work, after a quick bath and breakfast, I was soon readyā€¦ I soon left my house and drove straight to AMTEX.

After I arrived there moments later, I went straight into the building and found out there was a commotion going on..

I heard cheers and praises and as I got closer I saw Gina amidst the employees.. As soon as they saw me, they all dispersed.

.

Julia āž” What is going on here?

.

Gina āž” Nothing ma. Itā€™s just that the employees were showing their happiness for me.

.

Julia āž” What happened? Did you hit a jack pot?

.

Gina āž” Well actually.. Iā€™m pregnant.

.

Julia āž” Pregnant!? Youā€™re pregnant?

.

Gina āž” Yes.. I just found out last night.

.

Julia āž” Congratulations Gina.

.

Gina āž” Thank you ma..

.

I left Ginaā€™s place and went straight to my office, as I got there, I took my seat and began to think about Ginaā€™s news.. I canā€™t believe she pregnant? Sheā€™s not married but I canā€™t believe she allowed herself to be knocked up.. I just hope the father of her child agrees to bear the responsibility.. I soon brushed the thought off my mind and began to work by checking out some documents on my table, while I was doing that, I heard a knock on my door, without looking up, I told whoever it was to come in, I heard the door open and the sound of footsteps heading my way, the person stood in front of my table waiting for me to say something but when he saw I was busy, he called out my name. I looked up to see the person that had the audacity to call out my name bluntly,.. I was shocked when I saw who it was.

.

Julia āž” Jack!? Youā€™re here?

.

Jack āž” Good morning.. Sorry if I sounded too rash.. I saw you were busy and..

.

Julia āž” No, no. Itā€™s okay.. Itā€™s been long since I last saw you.. You didnā€™t even call. I was afraid that you wouldnā€™t show up.

.

Jack āž” Sorry, I had to deal with some things.. But now Iā€™m hereā€¦ Uhm.. I hope your job offer still stands cause I just quit my other job.

.

I smiled to myself as I heard that, I stood up and went straight in front of jack.. I sat at the edge of the table looking at me coyly.

.

Julia āž” Took you long enough to quit.. I was hoping youā€™d accept my offer earlier bur you had to wait out until I even forgot about you.

.

Jack āž” so is that a no?

.

Julia āž” No.. Youā€™ve already gotten the job.. But youā€™ve failed to show up to start workingā€¦ I canā€™t let you get away with that.

.

Jack āž” Is that so? So what do I have to do to make up for lost time?

.

Julia āž” I think you know very well what you must do.

.

In a blink of an eye, Jack grabbed hold of me and gave me a long lustful kiss on my lips, he forced his tongue deep into my mouth as I accepted his kiss, I twitched all over as I felt his hands on my bre-sts and a**, before I knew it, I was turned on like fire.. I quickly stopped him before I went completely crazy with lust!

.

Julia āž” Wait.. Wait.. Wait.. Oh God! You have no idea how much Iā€™ve missed you.

.

Jack āž” Whyā€™d you tell me to stop?.. Spread your legs let me do you quickly..

.

Julia āž” No, no, noā€¦ Not here.. Not now.. Weā€™re in the middle of work.. Business before pleasure.

.

Jack āž” Okay.. I understand.. But remember.. Iā€™ll drop by at your place later.. I wonā€™t take no for an answer.

.

Julia āž” I know.. Iā€™ll be expecting you..

.

To be CONTINUED

What do you all think about Juliaā€™s decision about not getting married?? And will Jack tolerate itā€¦
