What?
Ice cream and a plate of chopped onions. I hope the father is the nice looking guy in the Ferrari, Jessie thought.
When Dan arrived, he was wearing an Armani suit and open white shirt. As he walked towards her, Keke cleared her throat nervously. Without saying anything, he handed her an envelope. She opened it and gasped. No Dan, not like this. She handed the paper back to him.
Then how? he asked. She looked at him and noticed how weary he looked. She took his hand, but he pulled it away.
When I called you and asked you to come and see me, I wanted to talk to you about a couple of things. First, Britney. What does it matter now, he thought.
We have witnessed Britney meeting a man in a park downtown. Janice was following him. He caught her and shook her up quite badly. He's up to no good. Dan looked confused when Jessie arrived with the strange mixture of foods. We can't say whether it's an affair or not, but she met a man. I need a bit more time to get to the bottom of it, but I think you, at least, have a case for postponing the wedding until we find out more.
I have decided to go ahead with the marriage. It could have been so different, he thought. When he sighed, Keke took hold of his hand again. Again he tried to pull back, but she held onto him desperately. What do you want, Keke? he said, almost angrily.
I don't want a check for three million dollars, that's for sure. I understand when you came here, you came prepared to support me, but that's not the way I want it.
Jesus, how do you want it? he said no less angrily. It seems to me, you want it all your own way. You dumped me, now I'm offering you financial security for the rest of you life to look after you and the baby, and you throw it back at me. I don't understand.
Because I have made a terrible mistake, she said, tears in her eyes. I love you so much, and I am so sorry for what I did to you. I was hasty and didn't think it through properly. I just reacted on the spur of the moment to a problem that I've known before in my life. I have every faith in you, and I want you and me to bring our child up together, under the same roof, and in the same bed. Keke pulled him over the table and kissed him. What do you say? She looked at him as his expression changed. The tiredness in his face went, and the sparkle in his eyes returned.
Do you know how hard it has been, thinking I would have to live my life without you. Without seeing my child every day? Of course, the answer is yes.
Jessie watched as Dan stood up, walked to Keke's side of the table and got onto one knee. When she saw Keke nod, she broke out into applause.
Britney got out of the car outside Jason's house. In her bag was ten kilos of the best cocaine money could buy.
I warned you, if you talked, you would die instead of your fiancee. Those are my rules, Steve said as Britney appeared in the middle of the cross hairs of his long-range assassins rifle.

Viola Turner couldn’t believe what she was hearing. She was going to be late for work, but she couldn’t move from the doorway to her bedroom. She was in her small one bedroom apartment, half dressed. She wore her black skirt that was a part of her uniform, but the white shirt hung over her shoulder. Her toothbrush was in her mouth, and white foam leaked from the corner of her lips, contrasting with her dark chocolate colored skin. She had been multitasking when her boyfriend, Jerome, had decided to break up with her.
“Are you kidding me?” Viola asked.
Jerome was tall, but he was slumped down, sitting on the edge of her bed, looking at the floor. “No,” he said. “I wouldn’t joke.”
“You’re breaking up with me?”
“I just don’t think it’s going anywhere, Vi.”
“Don’t call me Vi. People who are breaking up with me don’t get to call me Vi. It’s Viola. Or Miss. Turner, for you. Yeah, Miss Turner is fine.”
Jerome sighed and stood up. He still didn’t look at her, he stared at the back of his hands instead, which he held up under his chin, as if he had never noticed them before.
“Look at me,” Viola said.
Jerome did.
“What happened?”
“It just isn’t working.”
“You aren’t working. I’ve been paying for everything while you keep screwing up job interviews.”
“I knew you’d bring that up,” Jerome said, sighing.
Viola rolled her eyes. “Just get out, I have to go to work.”
“Get out?” Jerome asked. “Where am I supposed to go?”
“You thought you would break up with me, and then stay here? Jerome, get real. Get your stuff packed up, be gone before I get off tonight.”
“Fine,” Jerome said, and Viola didn’t waste another second on the man. She turned and headed for the bathroom, so she could finish brushing her teeth.
