Mirth filled the white haired woman's eyes as she informed her friend that she now owned a new property in the Ebony villas.
"Wait what? When did this happen? No wonder you were no where to be seen all day yesterday." Shays words were glazed with envy as she pouted her lips
"Logan is very romantic and a man of his word too, he made a giant promise and he delivered like 30 minutes later, he's a keeper am telling you Shay." Luna peeked at her phone which was ontop of the stack of papers that rested on the table.
It was very odd that she hadn't heard from him since the night before when he rushed out of the house without saying goodbye or kissing her for that matter.
'I wonder if something happened when he got home? I hope nothing unfortunate happened to him or the baby.' Worrying thoughts just kept swirling in her head since his phone was turned off too.
"Keeper? How exactly are you planning on keeping him, need I remind you that the man is married with a baby on the way. He may play with you but he's committed to his wife, trust me I know these guys like the back of my hand." Shay snapped her fingers each time she hit the nail on the head
'If only you knew half of what's going on' Luna thought and exhaled heavily "you know I am aware that you like my man thats why you say demeaning statements about our relationship, he chose me deal with it." Luna blurted out hoping to hurt Shay's feeling alittle
Shay quickly confirmed that she indeed did like Logan to her suprise "That was in the past however, now my main man is Don and its an open relationship. He can fuck whoever he wants and so can I, it's works better that way since his libido is way down there." She was being truthful because Luna couldn't detect any lies coming from her.
"You do know that lately you've been galavanting around Euphoria whilst flashing your affair however what if, just what if someone tells his wife." Shay expressed ingenuine concern as she sat in the wing back chair opposite Luna's.
"Come on, you know that with the technology at Euphoria all information travel is monitored, besides all workers are bound by their confidentiality agreements." Luna's voice sounded cocky and arrogant something Shay found to be very maddening.
Shay used her hand to dismiss her words which to her sounded like outright rubbish "You're missing the point, all these middle aged and old women are from the same social status as Megan Robinson, supposing one of them opens their big rich mouths, what then?" Her words sounded more like a warning than a simple remark
Luna leaned forward on the table, her motionless eyes looked into Shay's wide ones "That's exactly what I want, the sooner she finds out the better for all of us." She murmured and glanced at her phone for the hundredth time that day.
"He's probably with his wife bonding with their unborn baby." Shay spoke with indiffence, she knew Luna's patience was now running thin. The only person that got her desperate was her lover.
"Am expecting an important call from someone other than him." Luna came to her own defense as she stood up to leave.
"So are you moving out of Euphoria permanently? am confused by this new sudden development." Shay's attention was grabbed by Don who was walking into the tarot house with a box of take out coffee.
Rowena who had been clearly eavesdropping on their conversation quickly stood up to greet him, he answered while jiggling the set of keys he was holding in one hand.
"Baby! When I said am craving coffee, I didn't say you could bring for them too." Shay exclaimed in a baby voice as she threw himself at him.
Luna rolled her eyes and tucked away the unruly strands of hair that had escaped from her white long braid. "Good thing you're here, I wanted to have an earnest conversation with you."
"I was here to see you anyway, let's have a chat." Don beckoned her to sit back in her chair as he sat himself down close to Shay.
Luna's phone chimed alerting her on receiving a notification, she quickly browsed through the message she had received from Stella Robinson.
Her attention was drawn back to Don who berated her for wasting his precious time.
"Am very sorry, it was a client and it was so important I had to check." Luna gently placed her phone on the table.
"Speaking of clients, there is an urgent matter that you need to address, one of our prominent clients lost a child and he believes the child was poisoned. He wants you to go to their residence and dig deeper into the issue. A post mortem is out of the question because of his spiritual beliefs." Don kept drumming his fingers nervously on his thigh
No sooner had she opened her mouth to deny the request when Don interrupted her
"I know, it's not a case of your choosing however this is a big fish and one of the pioneer clients of this place, spurning is off the table."
She became anxious and suddenly perspirated but only because he was acting like it's a do or die affair, "I'll do my best to help the client anyway I can. On another note I would like you to know that am moving out, not permanently ofcourse and I'll be reporting to work when I can. I realize I pushed my self too hard after the stabbing incident." Luna exhaled loudly as she gazed at him
Don chuckled softly "Am already in the know, do as you please, whatever decision you make just keep it at the back of your mind that Euphoria is empty without the White witch.
Shaking her head in utter confusion Luna asked how exactly he knew he's answer blew her mind.
"The black mamba sent me a message last night." Came Don's answer, winking at his girl before he left.
'How the hell did he know about her acquiring a new abode already? Am I being followed? Or spied on?' Thoughts kept whirling in her mind.
Her eyes suspiciously landed on Rowena who was scribbling on her phone. "Could she be the spy for the black mamba? But Logan had recommended her, or is she spying for the culprit that stabbed her." Luna muttered under her breath, 'I need to find out discreetly' Her sharp eyes fixed on her secretary.
After two beeps Stella Robinson picked Luna's call " Am just checking if everything is alright, I've just seen the message you sent earlier." What she wanted to know was why Stella had told her the reading of the will had been postponed.
"It just turned out that way, I'll let you know when another date is scheduled." She suddenly hung up denying Luna a chance to ask further questions.
'Why the sudden change of dates.' She thought instinctively as she dialed her lover, he's number was still unavailable.
"What the fuck!" She furiously slammed it onto the floor attracting attention from the other people in the room.
