Chapter 25: Karma POV

“Sex is pointless if all the participants do not reach their peak”-Domunique White

“So, how was it?”, Aunt Jackie asked, waking me up.

“Great, now can I go back to sleep please”, I said.

“Nope, not until I hear those magic words, I have been dying to hear you say”, she said, and even though I was not looking at her I could tell she was smiling hard.

“Okay, you were right. He handles my body so well. He worked my body and I know tomorrow and Sunday will be even better”, I said with a smile.

“So, are you willing to take over after I retire now?”, she asked, looking at me with hopeful eyes.

“No, Auntie Jackie, you know I do not want this life, I have dreams and my contract with L will secure that”, I said, looking at the disappointment in her eyes.

“Karma in this place is important. I refuse to sell it. This is my....now our legacy baby”, she said with unheard tears in her eyes.

“Do not cry, Aunt Jackie, I am sure you will figure something out. And besides, you are far from retirement”, I said with a smile.

“Looks like I will not retire baby”, she said with a sad smile.

“Because you love what you do, Auntie”, I said, smiling at her.

“And you finally dust the cobwebs off your pussy”, she said, and we both laughed.

I took off my mask and just lay there. Driving home right now is just not an option for me right now. So, staying here for the night is my plan. Besides, L will be here tomorrow anyway and I can save gas not having to go back and forth. On the nightstand next to my phone is a check Aunt Jackie must have left. I looked at it and it was L payment for the weekend.

I deposited the check mobile, glad I do not have to get out the bed to go to the bank. Later I will ask Aunt Jackie to just direct deposit the money from now on. Just as I was about to go to sleep, my personal phone alerted me I had a message. Who could be texting me at this time?

Unknown: Hey, we need to talk.
Me: Who is this?
Unknown: So you do not know who this is?
Me: No, if I asked who you are, then that means I do not know who this is.
Unknown: It's me babe.
Me: Who the hell is me?
Unknown: Mike!

Fuck my life, what does he want? It has been years since I heard or saw Mike. He broke my heart and it took me years as of tonight to get myself back together. And the day I get myself together is the day this asshole decides to pop up in my life. Like the universe is really messing with me right now.

Me: What do you want, Mike?
Mike: I miss you, baby.
Me: You left me years ago, remember?
Mike: I know I made a mistake. Baby, I am sorry.
Me: Too late for an apology. Have a good life Mike.
Mike: I will once you are back in it. Look, I am outside your house. Open the door so we can talk.
Me: Not home and will not be there for the remainder of the weekend. Please get off my property.
Mike: You are single. I am newly divorced. Let's get back together.

This dude has some nerves. Newley divorced and he came running back, thinking I would be sitting around waiting for him. I should have changed my number instead of deleting and blocking his old number. Looks like he kept mine. This man damn near broke me. And now he is back to finish the job. Fuck no, he chose what he wanted to do. And I let him. If he thinks he can come back to me, I will be waiting for him with open arms. He has another thing coming. Even if L wasn't in my life, I still wouldn't want Mike back.

Me: I am not single.
Mike: Yes you are a babe. No one wants you but me.

Okay, I am done with him and his foolishness, the fuking nerves of him. I blocked his number after he sent his text. No one wants me but him, yeah, right? L wants me. He wants me so much he is paying six figures every weekend. Mike got married and probably messed that up and now he wants to fuck up my life again. Not today, Satan, not ever. I can't pinpoint what pisses me off more.

The fact that he contacted me and texted the shit he texted. Or the fact that he had the nerve to be outside of my house texting me this bullshit. I watch a lot of crime television shows to know the behavior that Mike is showing. Could possibly escalate to something worse if I don't nip this in the bud.

I do not need him to keep popping up at my house. He does not know where but Jackie lives, which is a plus for me. Because I have a feeling he will not stop until he sees me. And I for damn sure do not need him popping up here when L is here. Mike never knew of my family business. Actually, I never told any of my past boyfriends what my mother and aunt did. Mainly because I did not want them to see me as......well, a whore.

If fate has any mercy on me, I will not see Mike. And he will just leave me alone. I should tell Aunt Jackie about him popping up. But she knows people that can make Mike disappear. Which she had been wanting to do the whole time Mike and I were together. Forgetting about Mike, I went back to sleep.
