Roland arrived in New York at four o' clock in the evening. It had been really long since he had left here. Nine years ago, after his father had died, his mother sent him out,technically, giving him the  fact that she didn't want to raise a son. They were broke. She had given him a huge amount, telling him to go make a life. She was looking for what time score. Roland breathed in California's breeze. Same Californian sun, the busy malls and people. He called his best friend, Trina Gabriels to come pick him up.
Though, his family hadn't been the rich type but he could fend for himself. He came out of LAX, waiting for Trina. When he saw a lady wearing a split to the crotch skirt and a not-one-could-call decent top. Damn, she had boobs that could stop traffic. He was done laying girls and getting laid stupidly.
Girls wouldn't use him or take him for granted, he'd learnt his lesson after his ex-girlfriend, Paige Davis, a wannabe model and a not so good actress. She dumped him.
Him, Roland Golden, had been used.
Dumped.
Dropped.
And heartbroken
SHIT!!
His luggage rode with him as he pulled to the reception when his eyes fell on a pretty hot brunette, wild looking.
She had a massive jet black hair with curls.  Her footsteps, with elegance and sophistication. She had on black, tight pants and a blue top with a deep V neck, strapped to the body with a wide belt. Blue studs in her ears and black shades on.
Black stilletto heels completed the dressings. She reflected elegance, money and beauty. She looked like a no no-nonsense lady. As she walked, her long hair bounced about her face. He was lost in her beauty, then he heard his name.
It was Trina. Not so beautiful and not too too nice Trina Gabriels, his childhood friend. She had on denim jeans and a shirt tucked in.
"Hey shortcake", he greeted and smiled.
"Roland, hey. I thought you'd never return home, schmuck. I missed you", she said giving him a bear hug. By the time he looked around, the lady in blue was gone.
"So how's New York city, any new boyfriend? ", he asked as Trina took one of his boxes.
" I'm on my own for now and I'm doing fine. You? Any news about your work? ", she asked and scowled. She was the only one that knew he was a PI and a secret agent. OK, he still was a secret agent. He wasn't planning on going back any time sooner.
" My life as a PI is over, for now. Whoa, monkey face, is this yours? ", he asked. They got to her a car, a freaking Audi. If Trina owned this, she sure was rich.
" Don't call me that! ", she screeched.
" Okay, if you say so ", Roland said and winked at her, then they got in.
Trina sighed," Ehmagawd, when are you gonna behave?"
And she drove off.
