"What the fuck are you into?" Jazmyn asked as she pushed past her sister. Kendra frowned as she watched her sister make her way towards her kitchen. Kendra rolled her eyes as she closed the door.
"Well hi to you too." She scoffed as she closed her door. Kendra took her time walking to the kitchen. She wasn't sure what was up her sister's ass and truthfully she didn't want to know.
Kendra had been trying her best to get as much research on Will Matthews as possible. She had done her fair share on WM magazine, jotting down his name a time or two. But she never dared to dig a little deeper.
Now she felt a bit obsessed. How could he have another office inside of a building that seemed already filled to capacity. He claimed WM magazine paid the bills. But she knew business wasn't doing that well. There was something he wasn't telling her.
That made her hesitant to take his job offer. Of course London was ready to jump right to it. But she wasn't risking her life. Although Will told her she wasn't, she had a feeling that he could be wrong.
The four men she met over the weekend seemed to be dark. Mysterious. Those two features never mixed well. Kendra stepped into her kitchen and took a seat up on the counter. She grabbed the bag of pretzels she had been munching on.
"What crawled under your skirt and died?" Kendra asked as she popped a pretzel into her mouth. Jazmyn looked her over.
"Do you work for Will Matthew's?"
"You already know I do."
"No I know you work for the she devil, as London calls her. Has that changed?" Jazmyn asked making Kendra frown.
"Why would you think that?"
"Why can't you answer the question. Is something going on Kendra? You better not be mixed up in no bullshit." Jazmyn pointed into her face.
Kendra pushed it away. "I got a job offer. But I'm still thinking it over mom. Besides even if I took the job, it would bring me a lot more money."
"Well then it's a good thing you're not motivated by that." Jazmyn spoke. She paced back and forth. Kendra watched her with a frown.
"What's wrong with you?" She put the bag down. Jazmyn looked over to her baby sister and sighed. "Tell me Jazz. You look like you're going to be sick."
"I am." Jazmyn quickly rushed to the trash can spilling the contents of her lunch she ate on the ride over. A groan left her lips as she took a deep breath. Kendra quickly hopped into action.
She rushed to the back grabbing a fresh rag for her sister. She grabbed an insulin pen. "Is it your sugar? Are you okay?" Kendra asked as she placed everything on the counter. Jazmyn sniffled as she got down to her knees.
"I'm pregnant." She whispered making Kendra frown.
"But you don't have sex." She looked over her older sister. "Somebody raped you!?"
