Eva P O.V
We had now just gotten home from the game,and eversince we were in the car I haven't talked to my dad because of that little stunt he did
"You know you are going to thank me later"He said as he unlocked the front door.I didn't respond.I just walked upstairs carrying a sleepy Joseph on my side to his room.My dad only followed behind me.
"Eva you can't be mad at me"
"Dad you knew exactly what you were doing"
"It was obvious before I said my little statement Joseph was saying mommy so you can't be mad at me,or anybody."As he was talking I put my little prince in his bed,and covered him up.I kissed him goodnight on his forehead and walked out the room with my father behind me closing the door.
"So what you saying that It's my fault"In aid as I walked downstairs to the kitchen because I was pretty hungry.
"I never said that.I just want you to be happy"
"Dad did you not see how all those reporters,and camera people were in my face asking me all those questions.How can I be happy dad?"I guess he didn't have an answer he just came,and hugged me.Gave me the fatherly hug that I needed right about now.
"I just want you to be happy"He digged in my purse,and took out my phone,and held it infront of my face.
"You know what you have to do"I knew exactly what he was talking about.I took my phone out of his hand,and unlocked it.I'm just afraid of what this conversation is going to be about.I'm afraid of how the outcome will be.I'm just afraid to see this will affect our lives as we speak.I wasn't a little bit to thrilled to do this but as I looked at my dad he wasn't taking no for an answer.
Here goes nothing.I.went through my contacts,and searched for his name.There it was.Jermaine.
I pressed call,and it automactically started ringing.I swallowed the invincible lump that was in my throat as the phone kept ringing and ringing and ringing.I was starting to think that he wasn't going to answer.My dad just looked at me the whole time.
"It's still ringing"
"Then hang up you can call him another time"
As I was bound to press end call that's when I heard his husky voice.
"Eva"
Jermaine P.O.V
"I'll definitely get in touch with some investors,and some designers.This will be a hit,and will really put a boost on you career"My manager said.
I was in my penthouse discussing my idea about my basketball sportswear line with my manager.Never seen another basketball player do something like that huh.I plan on making affordable sportwears for those boys and girls that play basketball,and who can't afford it.I'm just trying to make a change for those who went through the same things like I have.Moving every month to a new home.Scared to come home,and see my dad with his friends because I'm scared that's he is gonna get high,and see him beat on me,and my mother.Having to beg lunch ladies for more lunch at school,because there was no food at home.Having to see some of my dad friends kill my mom,and dad.Having to here my sister crying every night.Me seeing her get in another car with a different family,while I'm looking out the window waiving at her from a distace.I still haven't seen her.When I finally got adopted I was adopted by a white family.They loved basketball,and I gotten used to it.Now look at me.Riding Mercedes-Benz,living in a 2.5 million dollar penthouse.NBA player to the Miami Heat.Future Creator of Anderson Sportwears.I would have never seen it.
In my little meeting with my manager my phone kept buzzing,but I didn't care to look.I'll talk to them later.It kept buzzing,and buzzing again.I looked at the number,and didn't recognize it.Then it hit me,Eva.
"Excuse me I have to take this call"I excused myself from my dining room table,and went to my room.So much emotion was going through my head.I was happy that she called,but was confused of what to say.My fingers went on itself,and pressed answer.As I put the phone to my ear I heard her smooth breathing that set the mood.
"Eva"I said.
"Jermaine"
"I'm happy you called I really thought that you went going to call me."
"I really thought you weren't going to answer"We both laughed at the same time.
"Look can we meet we really need to talk"
"Why can't we talk over the phone"
"I need to see you we have alot to catch up on"I took her a moment to make her decision.She finally spoken.
"Where"
"We'll meet at big pink"
"That's a restaurant"
"Yea"
"Where alot of people will be"
"Uh yea"
"Didn't you remember what happened at the game"
"Okay well just come to my penthouse.I'll text you my address"
"Okay,and I'll bring some food because I know you have no food over there"I laughed because it was so true.My refrigerator looked like the desert.
"Can you bring some burger king please.It would really help.I'll pay you when I see you"
"Okay"
"O I forgot when you get here just say I'm here for Jermaine,and they'll call me.I'll let you up."
"Ok thanks I'll be there in 30 minutes."
"Okay"
She hunged up the phone,and my feelings was sky rocket.I was so happy that I did the moonwalk.We had a food conversation,and it wasn't akward,and I'm getting food.YES.I feel like rick ross at the chinease buffet right about now,but it died down because I have to get back to business.
I can't wait till she gets here.
{Anyways just a short chapter.My poor Jermaine went through it,but the outcome was great as you read.Will update sometimes this week most likely tomorrow since It's no school.But yea let me know how I'm doing }
