Sin and Soul

The Meeting

   Bryan paced all around his office. Waiting for either a phone call from Nirvana, or a text. Patricia wanted to meet up and he just wanted to be left alone. Didn't need no more drama, everything had been good the past few months. Could be better but they just been good. He needed to let his wife know, just in case anything went wrong. He pulled out his phone to call again and saw that it was already 12:34. With traffic right now, he would get to Lenox around 1:52. It's not like he cared to be on time or anything, but the sooner this is over with, the better. He had to go. He'd explain the situation to his wife when she came home today.  Besides, she had that case she had to be working on. 

   As Bryan walked out of his office he stopped by the secretary's desk. 

     "Gena" He said politely. 

     "Yes Mr. Walker" She asked. 

     "What did that woman who just called you tell you, to get you to transfer her to me?" He asked. 

     "She said she was with MMG and she had over a million dollar contract that you two had been discussing. Did I do something wrong?" 

     "Kind of. It's not your fault.  Here is what I want you to do. I want you to call every record label A&R and stay up to date with who's the hottest artist and who is on the come up. That way this wont happen again. Can you do that?" 

    "Yes sir"  

    "Thank you." Bryan said as he turned to walk off. 

    "May I ask who the female was?" Gena asked. "So I can avoid her?" 

    "Just remember her voice. Don't worry about her." 

   "Why can't I know?" 

  "Personal."

As Bryan exited the elevator, his phone rang. 

"Bryan" His voice penetrated the woman on the other end of the phone. 

"Mr. Walker, this is Leslie smith from Chevrolet dealership of Atlanta. We received your inquiry about the 2016 Chevy Tahoe. We also see that you are a past customer and would love to help you with your purchase." Leslie said. 

"Oh" Bryan chuckled. "I saw one for 42,000. I planned on just purchasing it up right in a few months when my child is born. I'm pretty sure my wife would like that especially seeing I just have a Camaro so it's still a surprise."

"Well, just lock my number in and call me when you're ready and I'll be here." 

"Got it"

The midnight black 2018 Camaro pulled up to the food court portion of the mall. Bryan pulled the lever to open his door. He stood upright and headed into the mall. He was late, but he didn't care. He walked around the mall and he saw Patricia no where. His stomach growled. He didn't take lunch today.  He had been working so much with all the company had him doing, that new aviation position seemed perfect. The smell of the Chinese food and other restaurants left his mouth watering. He went over to the chic fil a and ordered. There was a touch on his back. 

   "Hey" He heard a familiar annoying voice. 

   "Don't touch me" He turned to see Patricia. She had on a flower sundress which highlighted every asset that the other males around her were staring at. She stared as his tailored suit outlined all the muscles he had been working so hard to maintain. The Stacy Adams shoes were freshly polished. He smelled of expensive cologne which made Patricia's spine shiver.
