“Andre!” She screamed, “Come put on your shirt if you do not wanna get some ass whooping.”
“No mum.” The little boy giggled and ran down the stairs making Korina chase him.
“We are gonna be late.” She growled, “I don’t have time to play all day Andre.”
“But I wanna play.” The boy pouted and ran to hide beneath the tables.
Korina stood with hands at akimbo trying to find her son, “Andre! Andre!” Come out where ever you are.” She smirked, “Mummy is gonna find you.”
She tiptoed to the dining area and bent over the dining table, she stretched her hands to drag out a giggling Andre.
“Yayy!” He hugged her, “Let’s do that again.” He pleaded.
“Nope.” Korina patted his head, “You have to go to school baby.”
She dropped him and wore his shirt for him, “And I have to get to work.”
“Can we go out to get ice cream when I get back?” Andre asked looking at her with puppy eyes.
“Of course.” She smiled and pecked him on the cheek, “But first you have to be a good boy.”
“I will mummy.” He smiled, “I love you.”
“I love you too Andre.” She said smiling down at her little bundle of joy.
Jace stroked his beard grinning as she scrolled through the pictures, his woman was right there with their child, they looked happy, too happy without him. Her hair was now fuller than he remembered and he saw that the boy bore some resemblance with him.
It’s been been four years since he saw her, four years since Korina dumped him, shot him and left him.
It’s not her fucking fault, His conscience snapped.
“What does she do?” He dropped the phone and turned to Ade, “What’s her life like?”
“Funny enough.” Ade laughed, “You asked those same questions when you were stalking her years ago.”
“What’s your point man?” Jace rolled his eyes.
“Don’t make the mistake you made the last time.” His Best Friend said, “Get up and go get her.”
“Look man…” Jace began to talk but Ade stopped him.
“You have got to do the right thing this time.” Ade said, “All these stalking shit I ain’t doing it for you man.”
“She wouldn’t accept me even if I go after her now.” He sighed.
“How sure are you?” Ade scoffed, “So what you gonna do? Stalk her for the rest of your life?”
Jace didn’t answer he just looked away from him unable to accept the reality that he is about to make stupid moves again.
“Coming!” Aunt Dido yelled when she heard the door bell, she dropped what she was doing in the kitchen and went to the door.
“Hello.” She said sweetly opening the door.
“Hi.” The person at the door replied gruffly.
She opened the door wider and was met with the image of Jace standing at her doorway, he had a beard now and his eyes looked sad.
“Hi madam.” He said again adding ‘madam’ as he felt he wasn’t in the position to call her aunt.
Aunt Dido reached out and pulled him into a hug, “God.” She whispered, “Look at you boy, come in.”
Jace was really shocked at the warm reception he had received, he followed her wide eyed as she ushered him into the house, sat him down and went to get him a glass of water.
“How have you been dear?” She asked smiling brightly returning with the water, “It feels so good to see you again.”
“I… uhmm… so…” He stammered, “I honestly wasn’t expecting this kind of welcome.”
“But why?” She asked.
“Cause I killed your sister and…”
“It’s okay Jace.” She rested a hand on his shoulder, “I have forgiven you.”
“Really?” His head shot up.
“Yes.” Aunt Dido smiled, “It wasn’t entirely your fault, you were forced to do it, it wasn’t of your will.”
“I know but…”
“Shhh…” She hushed him, “We do things, we make mistakes but at the end there is forgiveness especially for things carried out unwillingly.”
“I swear I didn’t want to kill her.” He said breaking down into tears again.
“Stop being such a big baby.” She said patting his back as he cried.
She knew he was still pained and would want to get Korina back, but it’s all about time.
Anne wasn’t furious to see Jace nor was she happy either. She was just neutral.
“You aren’t gonna let me in right?” He asked standing tiredly at her door way.
“Nope.” She shook her head, “Say what you wanna right here.”
“Anne…” He started, “I am sorry for everything.”
“Tell that to Korina.” She growled, “You put her through hell.”
“I know.” Jace said, “I want to make things right.” He pleaded.
“I can’t help you Jace.” She shook her head.
“I just need you to answer a question.” He said.
“What?” She asked bluntly staring at him.
“Is she seeing anyone?”
“No.” Anne shook her head sadly, “She isn’t.”
Jace left Anne’s apartment with a light hearted feeling, glad that Korina wasn’t romantically involved with anyone, “Get the jet ready.” He told one of his men, “We are going to Spain.”
