Ciara's POV
'What the fuck? Corey?! My assistant?!

Stare was all I could do. Shocked? Yes.
So much is happening in this little bit of time.
Why do I always get put in situations like this I hate it so much,Ever sense my youngest days so what do I do? I stare.

"Um okk, sweety would you mind introducing yourself" Kyle said looking at me confused.
"Nice to finally meet you I've heard a lot"Corey said with slight smirk.
"I have to be Excused ..I-I have a meeting" I said before walking out very fast.
Quickly walking I go to the front of my work place.
"Please Escort my assistant and his guess out" I whisper to my security.
I can't believe this I thought as I walked to my meeting room.
This nigga ain't only cocky he's an undercover gay.
How can I tell this to Joy.
Do she know?
How could he?
I thought Sitting down speechless.
"Ms.Smith"I heard an office worker say through the Intercom.
"Yes"
"Your guess is here"
"Let them in" I said staring at my notes.
"Yes mam"
Immediately walking in I see about 15 Chinese workers from the company.
Lastly their boss.
'Hmm surprised he isn't Chinese '
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Lets just pretend he had on something professional)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Good evening"I said as they all sat.
"Why hello Ms."he said asking for my last name in a way.
"Ms.Smith and let's not act as if you don't know who I am"I said forcing a smile.
"Sure I do it's just for confirmation" he said taking out paper work.
"And you are" I said giving him the same energy he gave me.
"I am Mr.Vinton and this is my team from the C.A.F's board" he said smiling.
"Ok, everyone let this meeting began"I said while he stood.
"So what are your intentions with my company"I said really wanting to know.
"Well I was hoping we could partner as in create articles but separately, as a deal" he said as his workers took notes.
'Hm seems kinda fishy'
"Deal?"I said looking curiously.
"Why yes,you see your team comes up with a banging article and so does mine, and which ever out of the two of us win the award we will split it 50/50"
"Well , I really don't think that's gonna work out YOU SEE,my business is very much so independent so attempt yet offer not accepted" I said in my work voice.
"You all may be dismissed" I said smiling.
Standing I walked to the door as they left.
Lastly Mr.Vinton walks by and stops.
"I would highly recommend you toTake this offer ,considering we're both tide so it can kinda go both ways.If I win,You win ..now if we don't ,then we just don't but I highly doubt it.
"Their cookies on your your way out"I said sarcastically dismissing this conversation.
"Oh how I could I forget,I always enjoy your cookies but anyway think about it " he said smiling while handing me his business card.
"Goodbye Mr.Vinton "
"It was pleasure" he said before leaving.
'Damn that was a waste of 15min'I thought as I walked back to my office.
Sitting down I decided to call Tash.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tasha's POV
Sitting in my apartment folding clothes I turn on the TV.
"Bae"
"Huh"I said really into my show.
"You want anything from the store I'm finna go" Kayla said.
Kayla is someone I am currently dating and yes I like girls and have been liking them since I last broke up with a boy and that was in middle school. Do my friends know that I'm gay?No but I honestly do plan on telling them sooner or later.
"Yeah get me something to drink"
"Ok"
She said before giving me a kiss and leaving.
Suddenly I get a call from Ciara.
"Hey,you gotta minute"she said in a hurry.
"Yeah wassup"
Ciara's POV
"Ok so listen,I was at work today and one my workers told me how his little friend was coming to get him for his lunch break"I said getting upset all over again.
"Ok"
"And that friend is Corey as in they date or some shit !" I whispered/yelled.
"THE FUCK YOU MEAN COREY"
"Tash I'm scared and pissed I don't know how to tell her I just don't wanna deal with all of this"I said in a hopeless way.
"I TOLD YOU IT WAS SOMETHING ABOUT HIM AND YOU DIDN'T WANT TO LISTEN " Tasha said furiously through the phone.
"What do I doooo"
"You know what I'll tell her,I'll just go to their little hotel just in case he pop up and something happen" Tasha said
"Please do and I'll be their too"

JOY'S POV
Sitting in this sweet all day was driving me nuts so I decided to call Corey to see if wanted to go anywhere.
-calling him he answers...
"Yeah"
"Hey baby"I said happy to hear his voice.
"Wassup"
"Um,where are you I kinda want to get out and go somewhere "
"I'm busy"he said dryly.
"Uh yeah with my car" I said feeling some type of way.
"Look I'll be home when I be home just chill out".
"Whatever".
"Yeah Aight"he said before hanging up.
'Why do I choose to accept this.
Hearing a knock at my door surprised me getting up I go to see who it is.
"YES?!"I yell.
"This is Tash open the door".
"How did you know where I was "I said laughing.
"Ciara" was her simple response as Ciara rushed in behind her.
"Oh.......well wats wrong"I said closing the door behind them.
"Let's sit" Ciara said as we all sat in the kitchen area.
"Ok what I'm abou-"Ciara said right before getting cut off.
"Your man is cheating on you with a fag".
When I heard what I heard all I could do was laugh.
"Bitch why are you laughing"Tash said confused.
"Mannn I'm so weak,we ain't in high school no more I know when y'all lying"I said laughing even harder
"DO YOU THINK I DROVE MY TIRED ASS UP HERE JUST TO BE TOLD THAT WE'RE LYING FUCK , NO" C said out of no where standing up.
"You damn right,you can't know if we lying or not too well "Tash said shaking her head.
"S-So y'all ain't playing" I said feeling my throat become dry.
"No" Tash said with a worried look.
"But h-he sai-"before I could get anymore words out I felt tears and a lump of pain and hurt yep that's the feeling the feeling of a broken heart.
'But he said he was sorry'
Yeah I thought.

Ciara's POV
That following night .
9:37pm.
I decided not to go back to work for the comfort of Joy.
She was so hurt and I'm assuming she still is.
I begged her to let's us stay until he came but she insisted that we leave.
Looking back at this whole situation she didn't seem like the Joy I new.
Like in a distancing way.
But who knows I guess people that get in relationships change but that could never be me I don't think.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
JOY's POV
Sitting at the edge of the bed with a bottle of wine I waited.
Waited.....
And waited..
It was currently 12:34am and he still wasn't here.
I wonder if he was with that gay fag or whoever the fuck he is.
Hearing the door unlock got my attention.
"Thinking of the fucking devil" I said as he walked in and took off his coat.
Slowly walking to me he says...
"Why is it that you seem upset my love and up so late "he said putting on a sad face.
"Don't call me that , you never loved me since day one.All you did was loved my cars and my money and shit and oh let's not forget men"I said as I stood up to him.
"Oh I'm assuming your little friend came to tell you what all she saw,yeah he was just a quick fuck" he said smiling.
"I thought that bitch would keep her mouth closed"he said before laughing.
Before I new it I slapped him.
"HOW COULD YOU DO THIS I DID NOTHING BUT CARE FOR ,YOU TOLD ME YOU WERE SORRY!"I yelled swinging the bottle at him knocking over the lamp.
" YOUR THE ONE THAT DIDN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT DUMB ASS"he said angrily trying to push me .
In mid swing he yanked my arm and slapped me.
"YOU BITCH" I yelled with so much hurt as I attack him hitting him anywhere I could reach.
The glass had shattered.
Grabbing me by my hair he hit me in the face once again and throwing me to the floor.
Feeling blood on my nose I looked at him.
"GET OUT"
"NO"
"GET OUT!!"I yelled getting up from the floor and pushing him.
"OH BITCH YOU GONE LISTEN TO ME!" he said as he shoved me.
Stumbling I came face to face with dresser.
I couldn't feel anything or hear anything but my heartbeat.
Getting on top of me he started to hit me none stop.
"DID'T I SAY I WASN'T LEAVING ?!"
"STOPPPP"I cried/yelled.
With one last hit.
I had blacked out.
I really didn't ask for this..
