"Beeyotch, let me just say how beyond upset I am. I mean is it Thursday and I haven't seen you nor have you called since the party. Tell me who has my bestie's attention so I can fight 'em."
By the end of Sydonie's rant I was cracking up. She had a bit of a problem in the sharing department.
"What is wrong with you Syd? You're forever in defensive mode. You know the week after the party is usually my busiest. I'm sorry boo. I'm actually working from home today so how about late lunch and shopping?"
"Well as luck has it, I am free this afternoon so I'll see you 3, my last appointment just got here. Bye bestie."
"See ya soon."
I had canceled my meetings for the day and stayed home to get some ideas down for Marcus' project. I had big dreams about where his company could go. Personally as far as careers go I thought he and I could go places as well.
I actually had thought about going out with him but decided against it. I didn't even have a better reason than right now I cared about making money, not starting new relationships that had a 50/50 chance of surviving. I really didn't think I wanted to take those chances.

"I think I need to go to the gym because all this food and moping around is taking a toll on my body."
"I may just come with you next time so let me know when you're going."
"Syd, you've never cared about the gym, unless you think there's lots of men there."
Her smile told me my assumption was correct.
"I just think I need new hunting grounds, and the gym is the perfect place to find a bed buddy, in fact that's the perfect place. They've got stamina and a sexy body. Speaking of sexy bodies, hello caramel sauce."
I turned but the only person I saw was Candace Helps. Whosoever she was with I could only pity. His navy blue suit fit his shoulders and body perfectly from what I could see, and knowing Candace he'd be in her bed later on. Lucky bitch.
"I can't see his face, but I know the hoe he's with."
"From where?"
"Remember I told you about the 'female' Collins was jumping in the supply closet?"
"That's her? Women like her disturb me. I sleep around yes, but for pleasure. Not for promotions. That's tacky. Nobody should hold sex over my head. Nuh-uh. I don't play like that at all."
"I am wondering why she's sleeping with Collins though. I mean she isn't employed to our company, she's a client so it is a bit puzzling-"
Suddenly Syd slapped me, "He's getting up, go to the bathroom and see his face."
"Why should I go you're the one that was ogling him."
"But you don't like her, go work your magic and who knows what could happen."
"I don't want Candace's seconds."
"I said go, now!"
Curiosity got the better of me so I went towards the bathrooms and loitered near the Male's door. When I heard someone coming I ran to the female's door, walked out and accidentally 'bumped' into Candace's date.
Looking up I saw the blue suit from earlier,
Check!As my eyes traveled further up I became more impressed by the man's statute.
Scrumptious; maybe I could take him off Candace's hands.
I was loving the view until I reached his face, and saw eyes I was already familiar with.
Marcus.Marcus Harris was Candace "The Hoe" Helps' date.
Hell oh hell.A/N Hell oh hell...
