Chapter 4

Lennox rummaged through the stack of papers that sat in his locker .He had a meeting with the Directors of the Marilyn Sawer project in the next forty eight hours but he was yet to assemble his work Into a single neat file. He'd spent his morning by the window, sipping coffee and praying that he caught a glimpse of Kim when she eventually stepped out . He did. He saw her run out with her dark hair flaying and her turtled neck jumpsuit hugging her buttocks, revealing the appealing curve of flesh in all sensuality. Lennox could only think about all he had done to and with her the previous evening . His manhood came to life at the sight of her and he couldn't keep his mind from thinking about Kimberly Foster. He was grateful when Hector Travis breezed in to distract him from his leery thoughts of Kim.

" The Marilyn Sawer man!"

Hector cheered the moment Lennox opened the door.

"Mon, how do you do".

"How do you do, Lennox, how's your work on the Marilyn Sawer biggest project ?".

" You came all the way just to enquire about work? How was you trip to the North Carolina?"

" It was fun! Did you have any fun here? No you didn't".

Lennox smiled.

" I'm trying to get the documents on the Marilyn Sawer Project assembled into a decent whole. Wanna help?"

" I would love to but I really have to meet up with Nora in the Waffle house two streets away.".

" There are many Waffle houses two streets away, care to let me know which?"

Hector laughed.

" Let me grab a drink here, I'll head off soon".

He'd shrugged Lennox's question aside and Lennox quickly went back to his work. Hector stuck around a measly fifteen minutes before running down to the Waffle house.

Lennox was inwardly grateful as he finished up his work and stretched out on the sofa he'd thoughtfully positioned by the window so he could have a good view of the streets _ and Kim_ now he sipped his coffee by the window and only stood up once to get his dinner from the delivery guy by his door. He ate by the window and looked down on the streets until it was late in the evening when his father called.

"Hello, Max?"

He called into the phone.

"Lenn, how're you? Why don't you call frequently?, I'm an old man and you shouldn't neglect me in any way, what if I'd died the previous night, how would you know?"

Lennox felt the tide of panic suddenly envelope him

"What happened Max ?"

He was pacing as he pressed the phone to his ears

"Nothing extraordinary. I'm fine".

"Oh. Okay".

" You've been away Long enough, when are you coming home?"

" Not very soon. Say, in the next three months"

" Why's that?"

" I'm knee deep in work, you know this "

" Lenn, do bring a blonde when you come, Blair's engaged."

" What ? When?"

There was no response for a while until the loud guffaw from Max's end floated to Lennox.

"Max, what's funny? Was that a trick?"

"Of course not. Blair was gon' call you himself and say it ".

" But you called first"

" Yes. Because I have to remind you that you're the only single son I've got ".

" I'm not single, Max, I'm just not engaged ".

" Then let's see who it is you're involved with !"

" Okay. Goodnight, Max".

Lennox hung up, wondering why he'd mentioned that he was involved with someone when in fact he'd only had sex with a woman whose number he didn't even have twenty four hours ago.

Kim was relieved, Blakes did not yell when she improvised, he looked impressed and she enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks to Joe. Kim was about to slip her heels on and go home when Blakes sauntered towards her.

"Kim. I'm impressed at the rapport between you and Joe. That's how it should always be".

Kim nodded.

" Eh, Kim?"

" Yeah?"

" Are you set for mississippi?"

" What ?"

" We're leaving today".

" Blakes, you said next tomorrow"

"I said that yesterday, so, we're leaving today. The shoot is tomorrow. Go home and grab a few items, we'll leave soon.

"Oh. Silly me".

Kim was in her apartment the next fifteen minutes, throwing toiletries into a tote bag and dashing out just before her phone started ringing. It was the impatient Blakes

"Blakes, could you take things easy? "

"You're not here yet and you want me to take things easy?".

" I'm on my way !!"

Blakes hung up.

Kim was looking forward to the trip. She loved the constant trips with her crew, she loved the treatment she was given as a lead actor and she definitely loved her Job in it's entirety. She didn't have much fun growing up, choosing acting had exposed her of pretty much everything she didn't have the opportunity to see while she was a teenager.

The meeting with the Committee in charge of the Marilyn Sawer Project was brief and concise. Lennox had shook hands with more people than he could count and had signed the another contract with the Marilyn Sawer Hotels. It meant more money , mode work and more luxury . He was complacent. He was grateful for the energy he put into the work and how he'd landed on another.

Hector was outside the building waiting for him. He joined Hector in his sleek ferrari and he sped off. Lennox didn't think Hector would bring them to a strip club until he was there.

"Care to tell me what we're doing here?"

He asked over loud music.

" Chill man, we're celebrating your new project, your new contract, don't be such an asshole ".

" Music here is damn loud, we can barely talk like normal humans, and ,what, semi naked women dancing in the ring.....man I'm not here for whores!"

" No one's here for the whores. We'll sit and have our drinks and watch, man!".

" Bills on me, then !"

" Yeah!, You're the man!!"

They found a place and settled in, occasionally cheering to 'more projects ' . Lennox was already drunk by the time he decided he'd soon start heading home but hector won't have that. He called for more drinks and ripped the attendants generously. She flashed him a grin and waved to Lennox, Lennox was going to acknowledge her when he saw from his drowsy eyes that the girl licked her lip and motioned towards her breasts . The girl was behind Hector who busied himself emptying the bottle into their glasses.

"What do you want ?"

Lennox asked the girl. He practically shouted the question and she cringed. She however regained composure and pouted as she replied.

"You're such a Hottie. I won't mind a night with you. You won't pay me, c'mon ".

Hector laughed.

" What do say, Lenn?"

"I don't want to, ma'am. Thanks for the offer ".

" C'mon, I'm not gon' bore you, rascal. I'm good at what I do ".

" Damn it, I'm not interested!".

Lennox felt his head pound from his yelling. The persistent wench left briskly at his vicious rejection and Hector laughed his lungs out.

" I'll head home on my own if you don't wanna go yet"

He said .

" Let's finish up, dude".

" I can't hold in any more alcohol. The indulgence already is massive. I'll get the bill now "

" Fine".
