Joy's POV
10:23am
-Phone Rings-
Slowly opening my eyes , I reach for my phone noticing it wasn't ringing . Hearing Corey in the shower brought the memories of yesterday back that I kinda tried to forget overnight . The ringing noise sounds again.Noticing that it's his phone I lazily scoot to his side of the bed to answer it.
"WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG TO ANSWER"hearing a mans voice scream through the phone.
"H-Hello"I said still kinda tired.
"Not this shit again"the man said in anger.
"Wha-" I said before him hanging up quickly.
Looking at the name saved to the number I started to wonder.
"What are you doing"Corey said out of no where standing behind me in his towel.
"Someone was blowing up your phone"I said while giving him a questioning look.
"He sounded upset with you"I said while he took his phone from me and started to type. As he did ,he walked to the closet of the sweet.
"Yeah that was one of the bro's I'll call him later " he said putting on his clothes.
"Oh Alright " I said getting up to walk over to him to help him with his shirt.
"It's all good........I wanna talk to you about yesterday evening" he said now looking at me.
"I said don't worry about it,its ok" I said not really wanting to have this conversation.
"But you know I really did-.......nvm"he said walking over to the bed after sighing.
"Look things happen, today is a new day remember" I said walking over to him giving him a hug.
"Yeah well I'm sorry" he said before giving me a cheek kiss.
"Well I have to run some errands I'll be back in about 3hours" he said walking to the front of the sweet to leave.
"Ok,but what will I do while your gone" I said.
"I'm pretty sure you can find something"he said.
While Smiling he left out the room before I could say anything back ,going to my phone I noticed I had 2missed calls from C.
'Now how didn't I hear this'

Ciara's POV
'Why the fuck isn't she answering the phone'
I thought to myself.
I was currently sitting in my car dealing with my makeup.
'Getting a phone call I notices it's my brother'
"Hey"
"Ayy ok so boom"
"Waittt,is this about your relationship like damn I can't even get a 'hey'back"I said rolling my eyes.
"No it's about my new one"he said laughing.
"Look I'm not y'all fucking therapist"
"No listennnn bruh dang"he said yelling.
"Okk"
"Ok so what are you doing like right now, like...right now,right now " was what he said.
Taking the phone from my ear to look at the screen I had a moment.
"Did you just do all of that to ask me what I was doing"
"Yeah I was just messing with ya" lorenso said laughing.
Before I new it I hung up in his face. He gets me every time with that bullshit.
Hearing my phone ring I answer it in a hurry.
"YOU BIG HEADED BITCH" I said thinking it was him.
It's like aggravation is always finding it's way to me.
"Girl chill the fuck out you the one that called me" Joy said.
"Oh yeah hey I'm sorry"I said out of breathe.
"What's wrong with you"
"Nothing lets meetup I got something to tell you"I said while starting up my car.
"I don't have my car Corey does"she said.
"Why would you let him get YOUR car?.. never mind don't worry about it just drop the location.
"Yeah ok and please don't question me"
"Ok"
I said before she hung up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I picked up Joy about 30min later and we decided to go to the spa.
We were currently talking while getting our pedicures.
"Girl what"I said laughing.
"Yes the mf ain't have no teeth"she said laughing.
"But like let's get to the point" she said smiling.
"What" I said confused.
"Why we're here in the first place besides hanging out"
" oh yeah" I said feeling uneasy.
"So um last night I got a call from this random number "
(Flashback from the previous night)
Ciara's POV
Who the fuck could be calling at close to 12 something at night' I questioned myself as I answer the phone.
"Hello" I said curious to wondering who it is.
"Helloooooo" no response once again.
"I mean like if you tryna scare me just say that" I said while out of no where hearing giggles from the other end.
And then.....
" I'd advise you to watch what the fuck you say,but for future references keep your little bitch at the liquor store where she belongs"The person said before hanging up.
(Flashover)
"See uhuh I would've been changed my number"Joy said.
"Girl I don't know who that was but all I know is that it was a women"
"Mmh and what the fuck she mean by liquor store"Joy said rolling her eyes.
"I don't know but if I had to take a wild guess I think she was talking about Tash"I said feeling scared for her.
"Yeah we gone have to tell her" Joy said looking through nail colors.
"Oh yeah most definitely cause like, bitch get murdered where?"
"Yeen lien"Joy said with a worried look.
"So like why you let ole boy get your car anyway"I said changing the subject.
"I didn't really want to put a fight"
"Girl!"I said can't believing her.
"One thing I know is you may have had relationship problems in the past but you never let a nigga take what's yours"I said seriously .
" It's not like I was planning to go anywhere" Joy stated.
"Ok whatever floats your boat" I said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After having nail and spa day with Joy I had to run by the office for some paper signing.
Whiling signing off and organizing my files I got a knock at my door.
"Hello Kyle"
"Hi sweetheart I have a letter from the C.A.F's office"
"What now"
"I was told not to read it .I guess it's just for you"he said while handing it to me.
Reading the letter it says.

"Oh so we're calling shots now" I said while sitting the letter down and folding my arms.
"Oh hunny why not I mean they did ask several times before"
"YES AND EVERY LETTER WAS THROWN AWAY" I said really upset.
"Look just this one time and maybe if you both partner you can win the award" he said in a convincing tone.
"DO YOU THINK THEIR GONNA SPILT A FUCKING AWARD WITH ME THEY BEEN MY TOP COMPETITION SINCE WE BUILT THIS BITCH , THEY'VE EVEN THREATENED TO STEAL MY ARTICLE WORK"
"Pumpkin listen that's was 3 years ago let it go" he said walking to my office door.
Reaching for my purse I took out my pills.
"I'll be on break my lil boo is coming to get me, in the mean time call me if you need anything"he said before leaving out.
Not caring for what he said I noticed I didn't have any water. Walking to the break room I got a bottle of water.
Taking my pills I over heard Kyle Entering the break room.
"Yess babe I got 1 spot just for us"kyle said with giggles.
Stilled turned around drinking my water I was starting to cool down.
"Oh yes sweetheart this is my boss"Kyle said tapping me.
Turning around I came face to face with a man I never thought I'd see in My building picking up my Kyle.
The first thought that came to my mind was..
'What the fuck? Corey?! My assistant?!
