jXinz0: FUCK!

Rh0ndaR00: What happened?

jXinz0: He fucking asked me about Katana.

Rh0ndaR00: Is it bothering you?

jXinz0: He just keeps texting me about how much he wants to hang out with her again. He talks to all these girls on chat, but when it comes to Katana, I notice his attitude totally changes.

Rh0ndaR00: Lol!

jXinz0: It's not funny, Rhon.

Rh0ndaR00: It's a little funny.

jXinz0: Why?

Rh0ndaR00: It's gonna be fine, Jase.

jXinz0: You don't know that. He's just using her like another name in his evil black book.

Rh0ndaR00: Jase, when are you gonna grow balls, and just ask her out. I know she has this little thing for you, but she won't say it.

jXinz0: No way.

Rh0ndaR00: Pay attention.

jXinz0: .......

Rh0ndaR00: Jase..

jXinz0: ......

Rh0ndaR00: Jase, stop playing around.

jXinz0: RHON..

Rh0ndaR00: What?

jXinz0: She's fucking beautiful!

Rh0ndaR00: Then stop letting her go out with a douchhead like Sebastian.

jXinz0: I'm hypnotized. Why me?

Rh0ndaR00: I gotta help Tana clean the kitchen. Gnite, Jase. Don't be an idiot, don't wait too long to tell her, and don't wait tooo long to tell her about.. you know what!

I picked up my phone right after my conversation with Rhonda. I walked into my kitchen to grab a soda. I didn't have to scroll through my contacts, I had Katana's number on fucking speed dial. Call me crazy, but I needed her to be the last person on my last call list, and the first person I see when I walk into work and have my kickboxing session before I even head to my office. She's the calm I want right before I go to sleep and watching her do yoga, while I beat the shit out of a bag with my trainer, set my tone for the whole day. That shit threw me off when I didn't see her that morning. The tension in my body from kickboxing stayed with me until I took her the coffee I brewed that afternoon.

The coffee was just an excuse. There was a past incident that happened, and I needed to know she was ok.

Seeing her tensed up from working when I walked in her office, made me not want her to feel like that. She looked like she had a hundred things on her mind that she wanted to say to me, but couldn't.

I pushed the call button on her name in my phone.

KATANA

I was in the middle of drying and putting away dishes in my cabinet when I heard my phone ringing. Rhonda was cleaning the counter. I heard her chuckle. She smiled evilishly as she wiped the counter in a circular motion.

I lowered a brow at her and answered my phone.

"Hey, Jase. What's up?" I answered. Rhonda had a shit eating grin on her face as she leaned on the counter and rested her elbows back on it with the rag in her hand. I rolled my eyes at her.

"Are you by yourself?" He asked. I threw my drying rag at Rhonda and walked away. She laughed. I started walking out to my balcony.

"Should I be?" I asked.
