CIRCUMSTANCES MADE ME WHAT I AM

TEMPERS FLARE

MARK'S POV

It's Saturday evening 4:15 the sun is still high. I'm on the back balcony having a drink in deep thought. Its mid September I acquired the cottage in Portland and it's been occupied ever since. A new booking every week or every other week. I even booked a week there, unknowing to staff that I own the place.

Needed to see the service up close without any false pretenses and I was satisfied.

Marie is the booking agent, I had hoped to see her but she resides overseas. She was just here on vacation, Lucky me.

She does bookings for other properties her mother owns so I just kept her on the payroll for this here property.

I went to have a look at both my farms and all is well so far. Thinking of it Bongo is going to need a pickup truck to handle the day to day runnings.

Then it's time for my next move, which is buying myself a house for my my 23rd birthday. Which is a couple weeks from now 3rd of October to be exact. I have been searching and have a few options just narrowing it down. It just has to be here in Stony Hill, I'm comfortable here.

My phone vibrates on the table next to me breaking my chain of thought.  I take a look and it's a message from Tami * Hello there how are you stranger?*

*stranger? Know seh mi good hbu princes* I texed.

*yes stranger! I haven't seen you in over a month and you're always busy. You hardly respond to messages anymore, so yes you have become a stranger*

Jah know star, where's the lie. I've noticed regardless of how things are she always check up on me. Every other girl if I don't call or it's not in their interest dem nuh link man....

*alright yuh win but mi did a deal wid some things still but things kinda calm and slow yah now *

*ok workaholic* she responded

*here what I'll come pick you up and we go do whatever you so desire. Yuh free?* I asked.

*I am free *

*K cool give me twenty soon farword *

I got up took up my keys and was out. I got dressed in blue cut off jeans and white T-shirt.  I just put on a blue crocs and was out the door.

TAMARA'S POV

Mark just ran across my mind. So I messaged him seeing if he'd answer me today and if he's ok.

I was surprised he replied so quickly, but not complaining at all. If I'm honest with myself I've been missing him or is it just the hormones on a rampage.

I hadn't had sex in about a month and the last guy got a shot at getting some didn't do shit. Is like him clueless to a woman's body.

Mi muss did drunk fi gi him none, muss di liquor to raass couldn't nutten else

Long story short he's on his way over to take me wherever I want to go but I've got no idea where I want to go.

He should be here soon because he's just 5 minutes drive from here but 15 minutes has passed already. I hurried and got dressed in a plain black T and short shorts to match and flip-flops.

Now I'm waiting, my phone vibrates and it's him "Hello I answered"

"Open the gate I'm outside" he says but standing at the window I didn't see his vehicle

"Where out there I don't see you"

Seems someone else is coming in as well must be a visitor for another tenant
