Amirah’s Pov
I was at the park with Paisley she was doing a photoshoot she invited me to tag along before I could go do my part-time job she set me up as a pool girl because as she quotes:
‘There’s nothing better than the feeling of wearing a bikini while working’
Don’t worry I was confused as hell too.
Her make up artist had her changed to a white laced top which was off shouldered and had a slit cut at the side of her arm, her hair was set into a long blonde waves with harsh crimson highlights. She was wore a green mini skirt revealing her perfectly toned legs. A pearl choker necklace complimented her neck, her make up was exotic but simple in a way she brought out the definition of sexy.
It was still sunny in the afternoon it makes me miss how cold New York was.
Paisley was still finding it difficult to pose for a shot so the producers took a break.
She ran towards me, I gave her a bottle of water she reluctantly refused to drink it at first.
“Take it you’ll be hydrated for your photoshoot.” she took the bottle slowly opening it. “Thanks mom.” she smiled.
“You’re welcome sweetie.” I said as we both giggled. “Come on let’s sneak out.” she whispered while I shook my head.
“oh come on this is getting boring there’s a diner opposite the park let’s just grab something to eat and I promise we’ll come right back.” she pouted showing off her puppy grey eyes. “Please mama.” she pleaded, I sighed while she clapped victoriously.
We both sneaked out of the park when no one was looking and ran to the diner, there were some chairs outside so we sat down.
We both went through the menu as a waitress came out and take both our orders.
“I always wanted to sneak out and eat like this.” she squealed as the waitress left to get our order.
“So does Hunter know your part-time job as a pool girl? ” she asked. “He doesn’t know yet and I’m not intending to tell him anytime soon.” I said as she cocked her brows.
“Hmmm isn’t that lying? ” she cooed
“It isn’t lying If he doesn’t know besides it was either this or house sitting.” I said as my gaze focused on Kaleb who went into the diner, he didn’t see me.
“I have to check if our orders are on their way be busy with your phone I’ll be back.” I muttered getting up before she could reply.
I walked in the diner to see Kaleb at the farther end of the diner and went to sit with him.
“Hey, you’re on a date? ” I asked as he looked up slightly amused. “Amirah you’re back, what are you doing here? ” he asked.
“Sneaking out with Paisley so she can skip her photoshoot what are you doing here? ” I asked.
“A private detective is coming to exchange information and Hunter sent me to represent him.” he said as the same waitress of earlier tried to attend to us but Kaleb waved her off.
“A detective? Like how good is he ?” I ask.
“He’s pretty good he knows how to get his source his only problem is he doesn’t do it for free it’s either you buy his information or you exchange something of same value.” he said as an idea struck.
“When are you meeting him? ”
“Exactly one fifteen sharp, but he doesn’t like to meet with one than one person.” he said
“What’s his name? ” I asked.
“Detective Vincent.”
I glanced back at my phone and checked the time it was only one on the dot.
“Well thanks before I go did you find anything on my elder sister? ” I asked.
“I did what I could but the thing is I couldn’t find your sister, I tried looking through your family photos and everything but it’s like she never existed.” he said and I sighed he noticed feeling remorseful. “That doesn’t mean she isn’t out there, the good news is someone might be trying to cover up your sister and I’ll get to the bottom of it.” he said which actually cheered me up.
“Thanks Kaleb.” I nodded glancing back at my phone setting a timer fifteen minutes from now and got up and went back to Paisley.
“I ate your order..” she said with a mouth full I just sighed.
“Who’s the guy you were talking to? ” she asked smiling mischievously. “He’s hot.” she added.
“Kaleb, you’ve met him couple times before.”
“Can you put in a good word for me.” she wiggled her brows. “Hell no.” I yelled while she puts on a pout. “Please mama.” she puckered her lips.
“Didn’t you just go through a break up? ” I asked.
“Yeah but that doesn’t mean I can’t still get laid beside crying over break ups is overrated I should have known this was going to happen besides Derek owns a strip club and I’ve seen one give him a lap dance in his office, I’m just foolish thinking if I stayed maybe he could have changed.” she sighed as my phone rings I looked up to a see a man in black walking in the restaurant to sit at where Kaleb was.
My guess was it was Vincent.
“I think it’s time to go back let’s not get the the producers worried.” Paisley said calling out the waitress to pay for the both of us.
Vincent got up but headed to the restroom, I purposely spilled water on my top.
“Oh my I need to attend to this.”I got up heading to the restroom but then Vincent came out as I bump into him and staggered he got hold on me before I could make a fool of myself.
“Watch the fuck where you’re going.” he yelled before finally looking back into my eyes.
“Vincent? ” I asked in shock he looked more puzzled than a perplexed pig being taught to learn a back flip. “Excuse me do I know you? ” he asked.
“it’s me Amirah, I thought I was never going to see you it’s been so long how are you doing? ” I asked as he tried to figure out who the fuck I was.
“I’m sorry I have something important at hand maybe later.”
“How about 5 at this same diner, I think you’d be interested what I have to say.” I hinted as he smirked. “Meet me here at six sharp I don’t tolerate tardiness then we can discuss what you have in mind miss Amirah.” I nodded, he dug his pockets and pulls out a napkin and a pen and writes his number quickly on it handing it over to me, he quickly return to his meeting with Kaleb.
Victoriously I celebrated quietly striding out the diner, Paisley was already up and with takeouts ready to go.
“Are you going to eat all of that? ” I asked.
“Oh no these are for the producers just incase they throw a tantrum on how I sneak out I’m planning to bribe them with food.” she said looking directly at my top. “I thought you were going to take care of your top.” she voice, I looked down at my top which was still wet my phone alarm beeps, I picked it up to see a reminder.
“Oh shit I’m late.” I said picking up my stuff and hugged Paisley before we parted ways.
