Agathokakological Lover : Loving A.K.

NIA

"I have nothing to say" Nia harshly wiped her tears that fell, she crossed her legs and folded her arms, scooting back into the cold metallic chair. The agents were infuriated by her silence. "I WILL BE SURE YOU NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY AGAIN, THIS IS OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE!" Agent Taylor screamed as he slammed his hands on the table. He startled Nia. Her heart began to pound as her tears threatened to create streams from the pool that fear created in her eyes. She held herself "I want my lawyer! Now!" she wailed. Agent Taylor sprung from his seat. Right as he was about to yell again, the interrogation room door opened. "Take a hike Taylor. I got it from here" a woman held the door for Agent Taylor as he gave a death stare to Nia. She closed the door behind him and sat in his place. "Hello, Ms Long. I am Special Agent Rose; I want to apologize for my partners outburst, please understand the circumstances we all are under. This case is high profile. I'm sure you understand why, considering you are caught in the middle. Is there anything I can get you?" Agent Rose spoke in a calm demeanor. Nia sighed. "Ms. Long, nothing you say or do can save her, you need to save yourself" Agent Rose tried to be as genuine and transparent as possible although Nia didn't budge. Agent Rose let out a long sigh "Nia, that woman is facing conviction for drug trafficking, human trafficking, and countless murders. The list goes on and on. If you are afraid to-". Nia cut the Agents rant short "I'm not afraid of anything. She isn't a monster..." Nia said this confidently. For a moment there was silence between the two although their thoughts were so loud. Nia held eye contact with the Agent. She couldn't help but feel maybe there was something she didn't know that Agent Rose did. Nia would never doubt A.K. being innocent, she KNEW A.K. but...
Before Nia could drown in her thoughts, a tall slim older man walked into the room "we're done here" Is all he says before gesturing Nia to come with him. Agent rose stood up and handed Nia her contact information card "If you change your mind".

Nia walked through the front door of what she once called home. She went into the kitchen to find a bottle of wine, but instead she poured a generous amount of cognac. As soon as she emptied her glass, she was sure to refill her drink. Somewhere between the warmth of the liquor heating her body and the coldness of the marble island that sent chills up her spine, her mind started to drift. Her mind had drift back to the moment she fell in love.

"That was amazing." Said A.K. smiling in awe at Nia as she sat Nia's movie script down on the island and picked up her glass of cali red crime wine . For a moment there was a comfortable silence. Nia was staring in A.K.'s cold bright grey eyes as if she were caught in a trance, which she was quickly snapped out of by the oven timer. "Yeah?" She walked over to the oven and retrieved the peach cobbler she had been craving, she sat it on the stove and went to grab vanilla ice cream from the freezer. A.K. watched her move swiftly and comfortably in her safe haven "Hell yeah. Your character is a boujie rich diva who men find irresistible. If you think about it you don't even have to act, just be yourself. A.K. tried to hide her laugh. "Oh, you got jokes?" Nia laughed as she placed two small plates of peach cobbler and ice cream on the kitchen island. "I might tell you a joke but I'll never tell you a lie" A.K. said as she scooped the cobbler and ice cream onto her spoon. "Even if you weren't a great actress, they'd still want you to be their leading lady, all because you're beautiful. You truly are irresistible."
Nia soaked in the compliments A.K. gave her. She always wondered what A.K. thought of her. For the most part she didn't care what anyone thought or said about her but when it came to A.K. she did. They've known each other for awhile but A.K. never spoke much, she always seemed to just listen and observe, she only spoke when she felt the need to do so... which wasn't often. Nia pushed her plate away and held her head in her hand "where was this energy during my time on empire? Because if I remember correctly you got rid of me and kept miss Taraji P. Henson"
A.K. pushed her plate to the side "what?" she sipped her wine.
