Chapter 186
Nicolas
The next morning on our way to school I was thinking back to last night when Nicol went to apologized to Nikki for rolling her eyes. Nicol wanted me to go with her but I told her it would be better if she does it alone, I’ll stand at the door and listen how she handles it for future reverence I’ll perhaps do it to someday you’ll never know. Nicol said sorry, Nikki however didn’t except just a sorry she wanted to know why her mom rolled her eyes and that is where the trick came in as well as a hefty fight. Nicol told her she and Kevin is only going out for 2 days she can’t possible be so miserable just because his sick but Nikki came back with ‘remember how miserable you where without dad?’ Even in my eyes that was a whole different story which Nicol explained but Nikki didn’t want to hear it she told Nicol ‘Love is Love’. And all I could think about while standing outside the door is, it’s my fault I pushed Kevin on her I really didn’t think they will end up together. I mean he bullied her for God sake. I made a mental note to call my private detective and find out everything there is on this Kevin kid, if she was so over the moon with this boy I needed to know where he came from. The argument ended on, Nicol that told Nikki again she was sorry and that she doesn’t want Nikki to roll her eyes at us which means we shouldn’t do it to her. Nikki excepted the apology but as Nicol walked out of the room Nikki said behind her. ‘I love him mom and it hurts that his not at school’. I’m very sure Nicol rolled her eyes at Nikki again but she was standing with her back to Nikki so Nikki wouldn’t see it, all Nicol said was ‘I understand’ then she walked out of the room into my arms. I just held her; she whispered in my ear ‘I’m not ready for this’ ‘Me neither sweetheart me neither.’ I told her.
Nikki was touching my hand when I finally looked at her, I asked “What’s wrong sweet pea?” “We are here.” I was in my own world thinking of last night that I didn’t even notice we were at school. Nikki hugged me and as she pulled away, I said “Have a nice day sweet pea.” “I won’t.” Was her reply. She was already halfway out the SUV when I said “With that attitude you won’t, you right.” She just turned around and gave me a look like I did something wrong. I didn’t say anything except “I love you” at least I got a “I love you to” back. When Rika and Nikki was safely inside the school we pulled away. “Geoffrey, I think you are fetching her alone today.” “Why?” Geoffrey asked. “Didn’t you hear that attitude?” “I did but she’s a teenager and a teenager in love that makes it even worse.” “Exactly I have a meeting and can’t come this afternoon.” “And how are you getting to your meeting?” Geoffrey asked because he knows I don’t have one. “A town car.” I said smiling at him.
When I walked out of the lift the office was buzzing with all the new work we got in David was on the floor talking to his team that needs to develop the app, I just said “Good morning” and walked pass them needless to say no one greeted me back because everyone was concentrating on their computers. When I walked into my office Jason was there waiting with a cup of coffee, I don’t know how he knows I’m at work and I’m not going to ask I’m just going to put it down as one of his super powers. “Morning Jason.” “Morning Nicolas. Here’s your coffee we have a busy day ahead.” “I didn’t see anything on my calendar.” “Maybe you should check again, the company that wanted you to come and see them, they want you there this afternoon. I hope I didn’t overstep by making the appointment. I know you normally go and get Nikki.” “No no today is perfect thank you. You’ll just have to organize a town car for me Geoffrey will be fetching Nikki.” “No problem.” “And Jason I need the women’s name and number that organized the Christmas Gala.” “I’ll be right back.” Jason said as he turned around and walked out of my office. I took a sip of my coffee and open my laptop. When I looked at the calendar for today, Jason was right a lot happened since I looked at it yesterday afternoon. When Jason came back into my office, I asked him “What is this 10 am meeting?” “It’s a meeting with Luther and David about the meeting he has today and the contract that needs to be set up. Right after that you have a meeting with Luther and Sarah about the new department you are creating and then at 2 pm is the meeting with Malonie Inc.” “Clearly, it’s going to be a busy day. Do you have the name and number before I forget.” “Yes, I do but you do know I can help Nicol as well.” “I don’t want to over work you, Jason.” “You not I’m offering, in fact I want to offer more if I can. You don’t know this about me but my father kicked my mother out when she was pregnant with me. And I mean literally.” “Fuck Jason I’m so sorry.” “No need she did the best she could and apparently, he was very abusive so she was better off. That is why I want to help Nicolas.” “Yes, off course you can help. Just call her say in 2 hours and tell her okay. Before she starts to freak out.” “I will, thank you Nicolas.” “No thank you Jason, Nicol will love working with someone she knows.” He just nodded and walked out of the office.
First things first I need to do my homework about Malonie Inc. They do many imports of products of some kind I’m just not sure of what yet. Their information on Google and other platforms where scares. If anyone needs an app or just a better description of what they do this company does. I will have to come up with a great idea this William Malonie sounded like a real hard ass.
