Ebony is a kind-hearted yet fierce African woman. One day a Woman comes out of nowhere to take her job and replace her. Her Boss allows it. Undoubtedly because of the color of her skin. While she is having a break down the most handsome man she had...
Jensy holds my hand and leads me out of the building. I hear her tell Zena to hurry and open the car door for me. Jensy sits me down and puts my seat belt on. I hear Zena tap tapping away at her phone before she turns on the gas and drives us away from the apartment.
MASON
I reach for my phone when I hear it ding. Jensy had sent him a text.
We're on our way! I hope ur ready!
I text her back.
I'm ready!
EBONY
I get excited when I feel Jensy slow down and start to park the car. I hear Zena gasp."Oh!" Jensy shushes her. I hear Jensy get out of the car and come to my side. She opens my side door and grabs my arms gently. She car fully leads me forward and tells me to stand right there. I feel a strong hand grab my arm softly. A man. I smelled Cologne. Mason. I reach to rip the face-covering off but he stops me by grabbing my hands quickly. " Let go I'm mad at you." I hiss at him.
I almost melt into a puddle when he whispers in my ear. "You are being insensitive." He huffed. I feel my anger die down but it's not completely gone. "Whatever." I huffed back at him. I let him hold my hand and lead me to wherever he was leading me. I don't hear Jensy anymore. "Jensy?" I call out. "Were here don't worry." "Okay!" I respond. I feel Mason stops walking and tells me to stand right here. "Okay," I whisper. I feel Mason starts to unknot the face covering and I gasp when I see what is in front of me.

I turn around and wrap my arms around Mason. " Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" I hear his deep chuckle. I love how it tickles my ear. Zena and Jensy clap and whistle, Cheering happily. I look up at Mason. "Tell me what happened earlier. Who was that?" I ask him patiently. Mason sighs and reaches for my hand. " Are you going to invite me in or what?" He points to my new home. I smile at him. " Of course. Now tell me everything!". I beckon Jensy and Zena over and they follow us into the home.
The fresh new smell of the house, or shall I say Mansion lulls me in. Jensy and Zena giggle running around looking at the place completely oblivious to the slight tension between Mason and me. I look at him waiting for him to explain. He looks at me and spills all the tea.
"She is my ex. I don't love her, I have nothing to do with her. But she doesn't seem to get the message. My family likes her and so they keep her around as if she is someone so lovely to be around. But many of my family members aren't very kind which means she suits them perfectly. My little sister, Lily. The girl we met at the business party put her up to it. She told her to come and mess up our relationship. Ebony, I swear I don't love her. It's you I love!"
Mason looks a little scared when he realizes the words that had just left his mouth. I see dread cloud his beautiful facial features. I smile at him sweetly and reach for his hand. "I love you too." I breathed. Mason looks at me taken aback. He grabs my shoulders and gives me a huge hug. I hug him back tightly a tear slipping down my cheek. He pulls away and looks at me. He kisses away my tears. Maybe we can go out on a real date? tomorrow? or something? He looks at me sweetly. I smile at him and nod my head.
MASON
I can't believe she loves me back. I was about to have a heart attack before she said she loved me back. I'm gonna take her on a proper date tomorrow and she's going to love it. I turn around when I feel a small tap on my arm. I turn around to see Zena. She opens her arms as if waiting for me to pick her up. When I do she puts her head on my shoulder.
Mason Spanish: Hola cariño!
Zena Spanish: ¡Hola! ¿Eres mi padre ahora?
Mason felt his heart go heavy with happiness from this little human in his arms.
Mason Spanish: Solo si quieres que sea tu padre cariño
She hugs her arms around my neck tighter. And beams down at me. Her dark eyes shining brightly.
Zena Spanish: Sí, por favor, ¿puedes ser mi papá?
Mason Spanish: Claro cariño
She pecks my cheek and jumps out of my arms. She runs outside of the house screaming Ebony's name. "Ebi, Ebi!" I see Ebony turn around just in time to catch Zena jumping into her arms. Jensy cracks up on the side. "Mr.Mason says he could be my dad! I'm so happy!" Ebony looks through the window at me. And smiles at me. I smile back at her happily.
EBONY
" Esmee, Oh my goodness could you believe what Mason just got me?! A house girl! I have a house and a car! I'm gonna give you the address come on over!" Esmee agrees giddily on coming over. I'm smiling happily when I see Jensy looking hurt and angry. She sits on the porch her phone clutched tightly in her hands. I walk over to her quickly. "Jensy what's wrong? why you look so mad?" She shows me her phone. On her security cameras, you can see her "boyfriend" Bringing in another woman and not in a friendly kind of way. Jensy breaks into tears. I hug her tightly. "Don't cry girl he isn't worth it. You know what we are gonna get him back! We are going to make him hurt just like he made you hurt."
"Guess what he doesn't know Esmee yet!" Jensy looks up at me quickly already understanding my idea without me having to say anything. Right around then Esmee pulls up into the front of my house. She hops out of the car and runs over to me and Jensy hugging us tightly. "Your home is so pretty! I'm jealous!" Esmee beams happily at me. She looks at Jensy and automatically sees something is wrong. She frowns, her pretty face seems to go with everything.
"Jen, what's wrong?" Jensy explains everything to Esmee. Esmee doesn't wait a second she agrees to do whatever we pan to do. Jensy hugs her thanking her over and over. " Okay, so we want to dress up cute and go over to my home right now and knock on the door. My "Boyfriend" will come to get the door. Or a girl his side chick. Say that you are his side chick and you miss him and came over because you haven't gotten a call from him. Also, Esmee is as loud as you can. Make a scene. Make a huge scene." Esmee nodes her head to this. I grab her hand and we head into my house.
When we enter a homey and warm smell of chocolate chip cookies waft over to us and enter our noses. I go to the kitchen and see Zena sitting on the counter and Mason getting a tray of beautiful cookies out of the oven. He doesn't see me yet but Zena does. She waves at me and points to the cookies. I nod my head. Mason picks up a cookie and breaks it in half blowing air on it before handing it to Zena. cautioning her to be careful. It felt as if my heart was going to burst with cuteness.
