The Playboy Is Mine

Chapter 13

Joel Williams

It's been 9 months since I walked away from Chloe. 9 months since I last talked to her. 9 whole months since I held her in my arms, since her perfect smile melted my heart. Speaking to her two weeks ago woke things I tried to tame in me. You might think am a bad person, but far from it, am not. The only reason I stayed away from her is because of her security. Kaylin, my psychotic ex-girlfriend, who wants me back and will ruin every relationship I try to make, threatened the life of Chloe. In as much as I liked Chloe, keeping her safe was my number one priority, because trust me; Jessie would kill me if anything happened to her because of me. So for her safety, I stayed away. I knew it broke her, cause it broke me too. But I couldn't do anything. In this case, I was so helpless. I had my P.I dig up some dirt’s on Kaylin, so that I could use as leverage from Kaylin. When I had enough evidence against her, I found out from Jessie that Chloe was moving on. I remember the conversation like the back of my hand.

"Joel, I have been meaning to tell you something." From the urgency in her voice, I knew this 'something' was not good.

"What is it Jessica?"

"Joel, for years you have been hurting my best friend. Now, she has overcame the love she had for you. Now am asking you dear brother, stay away from her. If you have ever loved me, leave my best friend with her new found love." That broke my heart again. For the second time in my life, a woman shuttered me. The only difference is that this time, am the cause of it all.

"Alright Jessie. I will step away."

"Thank you, now about..........."

From that day, I vowed to let Chloe be, since I pushed her away. But still, I must admit, I still crave her badly. Such that, when Jessica told me she was coming home, I was happy that I will see the two women closest to my heart. Only to be disappointed that Jessica came alone. But I didn't let it show. Though I was happy to see my sister, I wanted Chloe like she is an addiction. Though it’s hard, but I must admit;

I love Charlotte Regan's

I miss her so very much

I want to make love to her like I own every inch of her

I just want her back in my arms...

"What the fuck are you doing here babe?" Jessica disturbed my makeup session in the café close to the airport. I gave her a puzzled look. She replied something in the lines of fuck your ass??

"Who the hell are you, bitch?" Bimbo spit back. I wanted to interfere, but part of me urged me to stay put and watch.

"Am the baby mama, and you must be the one who was sucking his dick whilst I was away. Now that am here, get the hell out of here sweety" I seriously wanted to laugh, but my sister gave me one of her shout up or I will pull your balls off signature look. That shut me up.

"What the fuck? Sweetheart, who the hell is this psycho," Bimbo asked me, I shrugged apologetically.

            ***********

"Mom, dad we are home" I called out once we got home

"Hello my angel, I missed you so much." Mom hugged Jessica. Jess then moved from my mom to Dad, that's when the tears came tumbling down.

"What is wrong Jessica?" My Dad enquired. I went and grabbed her a glass of water. After she drunk, I had the worst news ever, my sister had fucking cancer. I couldn't believe it. My sister can't be sick. Chloe told me Jessica was fine. I wanted to cry, but for her sake, I remained calm. Am going to get my sister treated, and she will be okay. I took her to her room. Talked a bit and left her to sleep, but not before I heard her mumble that she missed Chloe...

I miss her too...

          *****************

"Why didn't you tell me? You lied to me Chloe. You said she was fine."

"What could have I told you Joel? That your sister has cancer? Would you have handled it well?"

"But Chloe, it is my responsibility to make sure the two of you are okay."

"And it is my responsibility to keep the promise I made to Jessica. She made me swore on her life that I won't tell you she is sick. Wouldn't you have done the same if you were in my position?" What she said made some small sense.

"But still you were....."

"No buts Joel. The girl wanted to tell you herself. Who am I to stand in the way if her wishes?"

"I understand Chloe. And am sorry for snapping at you."

"It's fine Joel, am sorry for not telling you the truth."

"Thank you for taking care of her for me. I owe you one."

"That's two owes now. But hey, Jessica is more like a sister; it is my responsibility as well."

"I must admit though, am scared. I don't want to lose her. "

"I am scared too. But one thing I know is we won't lose her. I know you will make sure she gets better. I know you will do whatever it takes. I trust you on this Joel."

"Thank you Charlotte. That means so much to me."

"I got your back Joel. Take care if her please."

"I surely will. Have a beautiful night Princess. Sweet dreams."

"Good night to you too Tiger. Sweet dreams."

I love you Chloe. I said more to myself after she hung up and I went to sleep smiling like an idiot I am
