ONE MONTH LATER

#AMAHLE

It's been a month since my unplanned meeting with Cecilia and I can't say I haven't been warned or freaked out by what this man is capable of. I mean who kills a whole family for just one person and gets away with nothing but a slap on the wrist?! Well I got my husband to build a case against Clint, one that is solid and can actually land him in prison for years and it worked, Clint got arrested but only for killing Cecilia's family, he was sentenced to life in prison so there was a little something to celebrate. That same week I met with Cecilia I got a call from my brother saying he's worried something might have happened to Karen and I got the same call from Alex saying the same thing and that they worried William must have done something to her, William on the other hand wasn't answering anyone's calls. I was also worried about my friend, she's not one to go MIA on anyone no matter how stressed out she is. Anyway I was at work preparing to go home when Jade stormed into my office... What's up with her?

Her: you jealous gold digging bitch!

I just looked up at her and then continued packing my things.

Me: how can I help you Jade?

Her: you just can't stand to see Damon help me out can you?

Me: Jade what are you on about this time?

I was so calm and I think that only pissed her off even more.

Her: I know it was you who convinced Damon to handle John's case and not mine. What did I ever do to you huh? You took him from me years back and now this? Don't you have enough already?

Me: firstly, I didn't take Damon away from you, you made him leave you. Secondly I do have enough that's for sure, I am running my own company after all and its doing pretty well so I'm no gold digger and lastly Damon decided by himself to drop you and not handle your case. You should be cursing at him and not me sweetie. Now if you don't mind, I need to get to my family please

She looked at me for the longest.

Her: this is not over

Me: ok...

With that she walked out. I don't understand this girl. What gave her the impression that I convinced Damon not to work with her? Anyway I took my things and switched the light off and left the building heading home. I called Damon

//him: Hey Wife

Me: hey Husband. I just left the office, where are you?

Him: I'm also on my way home... lets go out as a family

Me: I like that idea, I'm too tired to cook anyway

Him: well then glad I thought of that.

Me: Jade dropped by

Him: to do what?

Me: she's mad because you chose John over her

Him: I'm sorry she dragged you into this

Me: its ok. I know how to take care of myself

Him: I like the sound of that

Me: I don't mean we had a catfight. Chill!

He laughed and so did I.

Him: tell me you at least did something to her

Me: I handled her like a lady

Him: aaah mahn. I always pictured my wife a ratchet Xhosa girl

Me: sadly, she isn't. she's classy AF!
