don’t see that happening for me.”
    â€œYeah, New York is a busy place. But, if you love her, then you’ll do what you gotta do.”
    I nodded and wasn’t up to talking about Sam.
    Felicia told us she’d be back and Jaylin suggested that we go get something to eat.
    â€œYeah, that sounds good, but, uh, I need to talk to you about something.”
    â€œWhat?” Jaylin said, standing with his suit jacket thrown over his shoulder.
    â€œI got a call the other day and it was from Scorpio. She asked me to meet her for dinner and I did.”
    Jaylin looked interested in what I had to say and laid his jacket on his lap before sitting back down. “So,” he said. “What happened?”
    â€œShe wants to see you. I told her you were coming in town and she said that she wanted to see you.”
    â€œSee me for what?”
    â€œHonestly, I don’t know.” I looked at my Rolex. “She said she’d stop by around eleven. It’s a quarter-to right now.”
    Jaylin gripped his hands together and looked down at the ground. He then raised his head and made direct eye contact with me. “I’m kind of uneasy about seeing her. Did you tell her—”
    â€œYes. I told her about you and Nokea being married and I told her about Jaylene. For the record, I told her you were a completely fulfilled man and had no desire to be anywhere else.”
    â€œHow did she take the news?”
    â€œFor the most part, she did alright. She knows how much you love Nokea, but she still wants to see you.”
    Jaylin stood up and slowly walked over by the tall windows, gazing out at the view. He put his hands in his pockets and didn’t say a word.
    â€œHey,” I said. “If her coming here makes you uncomfortable, I’ll call—”
    â€œNaw,” he said with his back facing me. “It’s okay,” he nodded, “it’s definitely okay.”
    As soon as the words left his mouth, the door came open and Scorpio sauntered her way in. She looked at me first and smiled, and then looked at Jaylin’s back since he was still turned.
    â€œHi,” she said, walking up and giving me a hug. I squeezed her tightly, just to get a feel of her nipples that were hard and poking through her red fitted shirt. I rubbed my hand on her bare back and desperately wanted to remove the string that was tied in a knot.
    Even while hearing her voice, Jaylin still hadn’t turned around. Scorpio broke our embrace and walked over to him. I bit down on my lip as I glimpsed at her silky smooth fat-free back and ass that looked downright delicious in her hip-hugging jeans.
    As she stood next to him, Jaylin turned his head and stared her up and down. Nervous, she moved away the bangs on her forehead that nearly covered her eyes. He said nothing, and neither did she. He then leaned forward, wrapped his arms around her and held her close to his chest. She placed her arms around his neck and tightly closed her eyes. When I noticed his eyes closed too, I knew there was some deep shit between them.
    Scorpio broke their embrace, backed up a bit and smiled. I had never seen Jaylin look so nervous, but he managed to smile as well.
    â€œWhat’s up?” he said, in his deep masculine voice.
    â€œHi,” she softly replied.
    Trying to ease this uncomfortable situation, I intervened. “Why don’t y’all come take a seat,” I said, pulling up another stool for Scorpio to sit. She walked over to it and Jaylin followed closely behind. His eyelids lowered and zoomed on her backside until she took a seat.
    I wanted to excuse myself so that they could be alone, but by the way Jaylin admired her, I didn’t think the two of them being alone was a good idea. Jaylin quickly spoke up.
    â€œHow’s my baby doing?”
    â€œMackenzie’s doing well, Jaylin. She’s grown into an even more beautiful little girl, and she still asks about you from
