Joyce Pov:
After I finished me and Tony makeup, we left to go to the store.
"Aye Joy, what you wanna eat tonight?" Tony asked as we enter the store.
"Hmm, I want some avocado chicken with noodles"
"Aight sis, I got you. Can you go to the frozen section and get some frozen strawberries and mangos?" He asked.
"Sure" I said.
We both went our separate ways. I walk toward the frozen section, but froze as I saw a familiar face.
I saw a man with dark brown hair, stood to be 6'7, and I know that voice from anywhere.
I wanted to go up to him and hug him. Never letting go of him. How I miss my Jaycob.
I started walking around to the other section, looking for some frozen fruits that Tony wanted.
I saw that the strawberries were on top on the self in the freezer. Hmm, how in the hell am I suppose to get it. I got on my tippy toes and try to reach for the strawberries.
"Need a hand?" A deep voice asked from behind me.
I frozed right on the spot. Omg!! I cannot let him see me.
"Umm, yes please." I responded not looking at him.
I stepped out of the way, letting Jaycob get the strawberries.
"Here you go ma'am." He handed me the bag.
"Thank you sir for helping me." I said looking down at the floor.
"You are welcome. Umm, I just want to give you this flyer. I'm looking for this lady."
I took the flyer that he handed me and long behold it was a picture of me. I started to get teary eyed. He still was looking for me. After all these months, he still looking for me.
"Oh, what happened to her?" I asked accidentally looking up at his face. Oh my! My poor baby.....he looks so tired. He got bags around his eyes from the lack of sleep. He also look pale as if he haven't been eating for days.
"Joyce, is that you?" His voice cracked as he looks deep into my eyes.
I didn't say anything. I look down at the floor again. How does he know its me?
I heard a chuckle, I look up at him to see why he was chuckling for.
"I figured it was you because of your eyes baby girl. Plus, that voice sounded so familiar."
I started tearing up.
"Yeah Jaycob its me. But, I have to go now."
"No, I'm not losing you again Joyce. I lost you once and I'm not going to lose you again." He said grabbing my hands
"Jay you don't understand. I have to go. I been hiding out with a friend of mine. We escape my kidnapper and now he is out here trying to claim me again. I have to lay low for a bit."
"Well, can you at least tell me who is the kidnapper is?" Jaycob asked.
"You know I want to tell you but I'm protecting you. So, I'm not going to tell you."
" Joyce! You been gone for THREE FUCKING MONTHS! I don't give a damn about my safety. I just want to able to protect you. These last three months have been like hell for me. Plus, your parents have not been taking this well at all. You are all I think about. I can't even function right without you baby girl. You don't know what you have done to me. I love you so much, it hurts."
Oh my god! He said the L word. I love him too but right now its not the time.
"Okay, I'll give you a hint. It's someone that you have known mostly your whole life. And by the way do not tell anybody that you saw me and I mean it." I said, giving him kiss on his cheek.
I began to walk away, leaving Jaycob behind me. I couldn't help to cry. Its hurt so bad, I just want my life back.
I found Tony by the cash register.
"Aye, Joy you okay?" Tony asked
"Yeah just my allergies messing with me." I lied.
"Well okay, I got all the stuff and few extra items."
"Okay we need to leave like now though."
I said.
"Why? You saw one of David's men? Tony asked, getting defensive.
"No, I saw his brother Jaycob. The one I was telling you about."
"Oh....so he know its you?"
"Unfortunately yes and I told him not to tell anybody. He didn't take that well."
"Well then, let's go."
We got the bags and ran out the store. I can't believe I finally saw him.
I can't wait until this is all over... ....................
Okay I know this is short chapter, but I'll make it to y'all. So, how do y'all feel about Joyce seeing Jaycob? Comment and vote on it!!!!
