       As the days went by Serena still haven't found a job, she looked for jobs from the sun up till sundown. On this particular day Serena was frustrated with job haunting so why not going shopping to release some stress. Even though Serena wasn't in any position to be spending money it couldn't harm her if she spent a little.

As Serena bowser through the mall she so happened to bump into Bunny McFarlane, the Jamaican man who was tossing money her way for a discount each time he wanted a room. "Long time no see huh. I've been to the hotel a few times and you weren't there, what happened?" Bunny questioned as his eyes roam over Serena's bombshell body. "I got fired don't worry it wasn't because of you my ex boss was just a stuck up miserable bitch." Serena told him.

"Oh well I glad to hear that it wasn't my fault. Any luck on finding a new job?" Bunny asked. "What'chu wanna know for?" Serena said with an attitude. Bunny put his hands up in surrender. "Woah mama relax, you must of forgot that I said I could help you find a job." Bunny said. Serena felt kind of bad for snapping on him for reason. It's just that she's been a little stressed out she has bills to pay and can't pay them jobless.

"I'm sorry, I just been stressed out I really didn't mean to snap on you like that." Serena apologized Bunny smiled. "It's all cool mama I ain't trippin' you see I still got this handsome smile on my face." Bunny said Serena gave him a warm smile back. "So back to being jobless, maybe we can discuss this opportunity over lunch tomorrow?" Bunny questioned Serena thought about it for a minute before replying.

I don't even know this guy for all I know he could be some individual who's fucked up and hold me against my will. Or he can be a nice gentleman who's just tryna look out for a sista. Well whoever this mysterious guy is I was going to take this chance. Hell, it ain't like I'm progressing in finding a job he might have a contact.

"Listen before I accept your offer, I'd like to let you know I ain't with no hoe-ing type shit so that's outta' the equation." Serena firmly informed him, letting him know she was serious and about her business. That sparked a interest in Bunny he wanted to discover who she is and what she's about. "I would never step to a art piece of beauty like you. With some disrespectful ass shit like that." Bunny told her Serena blushed.

"Do you accept my offer or do I have beg you?" Bunny asked jokingly. Serena giggled then said. "No you don't, if you are serious I don't see why not."

"I am serious like a kidney stone I can promise you that. When I see potential in a beautiful woman like you I go after it." Bunny exchanged his number as he sent Serena the address of the restaurant that they'll be meeting at tomorrow evening.

The very next day Serena woke up early to look her best for the lunch meeting. For some reason she wanted to impress Bunny she had never received the type of attention Bunny gave her. The way how he looked at her, the way how he talked to her he treated her like a gentleman should treat a woman. After showering for thirty minutes, Serena returned to her bedroom butt naked she had forgotten her towel and she regretted it because she was cold as hell.

She was glad at a moment like this that she lived alone but deep down inside she missed having a roommate and waking up to Ayla each day. Serena sighed softly as she dried off and lotion her smooth skin. She was blessed to have flawless skin she never had to battle with her skin breaking out or being too oily, it was always just flawless and right.
