The Bet (Completed)

1

Don't know why I'm still
Still kissing girls that I don't love
Still stumbling out of these clubs
Still, I'm just so hard to trust
Don't know why I'm still a playboy (still)
Still running 'round tryin' to lay up
Still fucking but I wanna make love, I really want to
Don't know why I'm still a playboy

"So what are you planning to do?" Tiana asked as I held the door open for her she stepped in saying a small thank you.

"I'm probably going to have to get someone else on the project with me you know to go to the constant meetings that he keeps on requesting, since I'm also working with Mr Bryers who is just as demanding, " I replied as we both walked to the counter.

"Good morning Franklin,"

"Tiana," he said smiling." What can I get you today? "

"The usual and a strawberry fruit smoothie for my brother, "

"Alright have a seat and I'll get someone to bring it to you when it's ready, "

"Thanks Frank, " she said leading me to a table.

"Why don't you just get your assistant to do it?" She asked reffering to our earlier conversation.

"Because I fired her,"

"Why?"

"She wasn't able to keep up, so I had to let her go, "

"So you're gonna have to find a new assistant sometime during this week?"

"Yeah,"

"Why don't you hire Dantae since he's coming in tomorrow?" She asked sipping her coffee.

"Just give him the job until you find a new assistant," she added probably from seeing the reluctant look on my face.

"Alright I'll give him the job," I agreed as my phone buzzed I reached into my jacket taking it out groaning as I read the message.

"What?" She asked as someone walked over placing our order before us Tiana smiled saying thank you.

"Mr Bryers he wants to add something else to the house," she giggled opening her straw.

"Do you mind if we cut this short and meet for lunch?" I asked.

"Not at all,"

"Thank you T, " I said getting up kissing her cheek, I grabbed my smoothie standing straight. As I began walking to the door, my eyes met a fimiliar face I smiled walking over to the her.

"Shakespeare," I greeted amused gaining her attention, she looked at me for a second before realization flashed in her eyes.

"Is this going to be constant thing?" She asked looking at her watch as if she had somewhere else to be.

"Until you give me your number," I told her as Franklin handed her the drink, she reached into her pocket ignoring me.

"I got you," Franklin said flashing her smile she returned it.

"Thanks Frank, I'll see you tomorrow," she replied picking up her drink walking away, I chuckled.

My phone began ringing and I answered it quickly knowing it was work.

"I'm on the highway coming now," I told my supervisor I heard Franklin laugh and I smiled walking away.
