New York
CEO JAKE MILLER'S BILLION DOLLAR
DUPLEX IN THE HEART OF THE CITY
Dressed in a grey pair of shorts and a tank top that exposed her cleavage, Scarlett Johansson walked towards the refrigerator and fetched a large piece of watermelon which she sat on the centre table dicing. While she did this, she shoved them into her round small mouth, humming the lyrics to a song in betweens.
The sun was already setting in the sky and the clouds gathering.
"Fiona! Where's this daughter of a scoundrel? Fiona!" She yelled
A young, half malnourished but very pretty redhead appeared in the hallway peeking in before showing up fully. Her bare shoulders glowed despite the harsh conditions she lived in.
"Get me the phone"
"The one in your room?"
"The one in my coochie" Scarlett barked, giving her the up and down look. Fiona shook her head and left and soon returned with a phone.
"Why are you still here?" She yelled when she saw the adolescent still standing in the hallway, her red hair playing on her shoulders.
"I can't find any food in the store" she sulked. "I'm hun..hungry" hot tears immediately gathered in her eyeballs
"Aww...look who's going to bed on empty stomach tonight. I'm so sorry, little girl." Scarlett's words dripped with so much sarcasm that Fiona started to cry.
"I'm going to report this to my daddy. I'm going to tell him you starve me for no reason" she sulked.
"Good thing your daddy doesn't care about you, or have you seen him visit home in months? I wonder how you're going to reach him when you don't even know where he works or have any access to him" Scarlett laughed hard until her body started to quiver. Poor Fiona left her presence murmuring.
"You should thank your stars I haven't thrown you out.
All you need to do is behave and cooperate and I'll continue to harbor you, but if you dare misbehave, I'll lock you up and no one will ever find you"
Scarlett's smooth body grew patches of goosebumps as she spoke. She spat on her face towel and turned back to her phone. She was obviously expecting a call from someone. As she stared at it every now and then to no avail, she slammed it on the chair and continued to eat her fruits.
Soon enough, her phone rang and she hurriedly took it but sighed and shook her head when she saw it wasn't a call she was expecting
"I'm coming home tonight" That was all he said and he hung up. It was Jake Miller and he calling to say that he was coming home shook Scarlett because she frowned and held her chest firmly.
"He has never called to tell me this. What's bringing him home tonight?" She thought to herself.
Before she could think too far, her phone rang again and a smile lit up her face.
"Darling, what's the catch? I've been waiting for your call"
"I lost, mom"
"What? Kayden, you lost the bet? A whole five hundred dollars! Where did you go wrong, you bastard?"
"Remember what your doctor told you about yelling. I told you to let's go with the bulldog game instead. My dogs are good at winning"
"I'm just worried about what people might say about hurting the poor dogs"
"We are not hurting them. It's a game. If my own bulldogs win, I go home with the money. We should give it a try"
"All right, son. I'm sure we're going to make a lot of money from this" Scarlett made a little laugh.
" Well, I have something I need to talk to you about. I need to be home.
There's a guy here that thinks he's God. He doesn't know I'm king of the Mandibles. I'm going to teach him a lesson because he's getting in my way but I need your help" she heard him pant over the phone.
"Was he your competition at the betting game?"
"No, he's just a student in a school here"
"What has he done to you? Who dares get in my boy's way?" Scarlett's voice was shrill.
"He just makes me angry. He thinks himself too big. He has the girl I want. I want to fight him but I have to make him fight first. So I put a pot of weed in his window. " He sneered
"Serves him right!" Scarlett giggled. "No one gets to disrespect my boy. Doesn't he know how much power you wield on the streets? What's his name?"
"I'll tell you when I find that out. I need your support in executing this next mission"
"Sure. Who are we dealing with this time?" Scarlett whispered, shoving into her mouth the last piece of the fruit.
"This same guy. I don't know his name. All I know is he makes me so upset. There's a girl I really like in that same school, and I've been snooping around her for a while now but it turns out he's dating her, but I want her!"
"Is she pretty? Rich? Useful?"
"I'm pretty sure she's a lot, with what I've found out about her. I like her very much"
"You'll have her" she whispered, her eyes darting around the room.
A large jeep zoomed into the parking lot making so much noise as if the rider had been very fast at the wheel because he was being chased. Fiona, the pretty redhead ran out of her room towards the sound of the vehicle.
"Later, Kayden, Jake's here" Scarlett said and hung up the receiver immediately.
