Chapter eleven
“Anne let’s go!” Zane screams out.
“Why?” I ask him
“We’re going to New York and our flight leaves in an hour.” Zane reminds.
“There I am ready. Now let’s go because I want to be out of there as fast as I can. And plus I want to come back home. I hate the ocean.” I admit to Zane.
“Okay the faster you get out of the house. The faster we can come back. Now say good bye to everyone.” Zane reminds me.
“Okay we are here.” Zane reminds me.
“I can finally get off this plane. Next time I’m taking the train.” I say angrily.
“I’ll remind you. Now let’s get the meetings started. I want to go to Central park with you.” Zane tells me.
“Lucky for you. I get out at three in the afternoon.” I say sarcastically.
“I guess that is going to wait.” Zane says sadly.
<Zane: Are you done yet?>
<me: yes I am. But I am starving.>
<Zane: then let’s go to eat. You don’t own any restaurants here, right?>
<me: not yet but I will one day.>
<Zane: well until that day let’s go eat.>
<Me: I don’t want anything expensive.>
<Zane: I know the perfect place.>
“Do you like the food?” Zane ask me.
“Yes I do. How did you find this place?” I ask him through bites.
“I was walking around trying to find a place to eat lunch. It took me all morning to find this place. By the way you got something on your cheek.” Zane points out.
“Well isn’t that embarrassing.” I say out loud.
“What do you want to do after we’re done eating lunch?” Zane ask me.
“Let’s just walk around. Tomorrow is the last day we have here. And I want to do some shopping.” I remind him.
“I forgot we only have one full day here.” Zane groans.
“No we had two days. But I decided to cancel the last meeting because I can finish everything tomorrow.” I explain to him.
“That makes sense. At what time is your meeting?” Zane ask me.
“It’s just a simple meeting. It’s going to be at the store. I’m going to meet up with the workers as well. And then the store opens up in the morning. Our flight leaves at three in the afternoon. Which means my meeting is at eight in the morning. Now other than that I’m free.” I tell him.
“That was a lot of information you gave me. Are we going to have time to eat lunch? Or are we going to wait until we get home?” Zane ask me.
“I say we just wait because at the store over there the girls decided to throw a party for the new store that I opened. And plus your mom already planned a family dinner in the night. So I can’t miss it.” I remind him.
“I didn’t know about the family dinner. Thanks for the information. From now on I’m going to ask you if anything is happening.” Zane says nervously.
“Zane I have no idea why you are nervous. I think you need to calm down…” Someone interrupts me.
“If it isn’t Miss Anne. What brings you here?” Marcus ask me.
“Well I was having a nice lunch with my finance. Why the fuck are you here?” I ask him rudely.
“So this is your new boy toy. I think he has a lot of work cut for him. I’m going to warn you, she doesn’t like to have fun.” Marcus says to Zane.
“I’m sure you have more to add but I’ve known her longer than you. If I were you I would leave before I kick your ass.” Zane threatens Marcus.
“It seems you and Anne are made for each other. I hope I’m invited to the wedding. I wouldn’t want to miss it. Bye frigid.” Marcus says.
“Listen dumb ass either you leave now or I’ll put you out myself.” Zane says angrily.
“Don’t get your panties in a bunch.” Marcus says playfully.
“Anne I want him far away from you. He’s so rude.” Zane finally says.
“I’m trying to forget already him.” I remind him.
“Okay well let’s get out of this place.” Zane finally says.
Me: Hi, Sirius how are you?
Sirius: I fine.
Me: That’s good. I need to talk to grandma. Is she home?
Sirius: Grandma!!!
Jackie: Hi sweety.
Me: Hi Jackie. How is everything over there?
Jackie: What’s wrong?
Me: We saw Marcus today.
Jackie: What happened?
Me: Let’s see your son got mad. And I wasn’t mad at him. But that’s not the problem. The problem is I know Marcus is going to do something. And I’m scared. What should I do?
Jackie: Well just let see what happens. I mean my son can deal with anything. When are you two coming back? You know New Years is almost here.
Me: Tomorrow is our last there. We did some shopping today. And tomorrow is just the opening. Well all I have to do is talk with the workers and I have to go before the party the girls are throwing me at the store over there.
Jackie: Okay I’ll see you at the party. Now that this over I think after the party we can go straight home for the dinner.
Me: That sounds great. I’ll see you tomorrow.
Jackie: Okay honey.
Me: Bye.
Jackie: Bye.
“Was that my mom?” Zane ask me.
“Yes it was. She’s going to the party tomorrow.” I tell him.
“I wanted to talk to talk to her. But that’s okay. It seems everyone likes you better than me.” Zane says sadly.
“They would like if you didn’t break up with me. And plus who doesn’t like me.” I say cockily.
“You are the funnies person I have ever met. Now dinner is at the living room, unless you want to eat it in bed or something like that.” Zane suggest to me.
“I think it’s time to go to sleep.” I say tiredly.
“Okay well that’s good. You go to sleep. I want to see this show.” Zane says to me.
“Good night.” I tell him.
“Good night.” Zane says back.
