Jojo
We walked to the next store but I could see Benji wasn’t really with me anymore his mind was somewhere else I mean we weren’t even in a boutique and he didn’t notice. I grabbed a pair of jeans, some lingerie without him seeing off course, shorts, t-shirts, a little black dress just in case he wanted to go out, I went to the shoes department and got myself some sandals, sneakers and a nice high heel. Nothing that I was buying was high quality at all but I didn’t mind. Benji was walking behind me the whole time but he didn’t say a word. I got to the till and the cashier scanned everything when Benji saw the total his eyes must have opened “Where the fuck are we?” I pulled out my wallet and paid for the cloths. “Never mind that let’s go.” “I need to pay for the cloths.” “I already did.” “But I told you you with me I pay for whatever you need.” “Benji, I do have money.” “Okay fine but we will have to talk about that.” “There is nothing to talk about.” I took the bag and walked out of the store, clearly Hannelie was still on his mind. “Jojo wait for me.” I stopped and waited for him, he took my hand and we started to walk. I wanted to ask what was going through his mind but I don’t think I should neither should I prey it’s his life and that life is in the past or so I hope. Which means I didn’t ask him. He opened the Ferrari’s door for me and I got in, then he got in. We didn’t talk the rest of the way.
I looked out the window at the ocean and then suddenly the houses appeared, we stopped at a gate where Benji put in a code and the gates opened. It was a stunning house that was in the distance, the drive to the house was through trees, absolutely stunning and definitely worth a few million, the land alone. When we stopped in front of the door that was under a roof, Benji grabbed my hand before I could open the door. “I’m sorry angel.” “No need to apologize we all have history.” “No but I shouldn’t have gotten so quiet afterwards.” “Benji the fact that you realized you got quiet and shut me out is more than enough for me. Now what about we enjoy the rest of the day.” “Okay if, you are sure?” “I’m sure Benji.”
I grabbed my bags off shopping which Benji took from me as we walked to the front door where a women opened the door “Mr. Devon Welcome back.” “Thank you, Suzie, and this is Miss Wayne my soon to be wife.” “Miss Wayne off course. So nice to meet you.” “Thank you, Suzie, you too but you can call me Jojo.” “No sorry mam Mrs. Devon will have a heart attack if she finds out I called you by your given name.” Benji leaned into Suzie and whispered “Do you see my mom anywhere near here?” “She laughed “No Benji I do not.” Benji smiled at her and said “Call her Jojo please Suzie, we want her to feel at home not like my mom, always formal.” “Then Jojo it is. I made sure your bedroom is ready Benji.” “Thanks, can you take this up to my room and please put them in the cupboard.” “Yes, off course.” “I’m going to show Jojo the rest of the house and the beach.” “Dinner will be ready at 7 pm.” “Thanks Suzie.” He took my hand and we walked through the house. It was huge almost as big as our house in Housten. When he opened the dining room doors it led to the pool area and then a few feet further were the beach. “Wow you are close to the ocean.” “Indeed, we are. Come let’s take a walk.” He pulled me and we walked towards the ocean, when my feet hit the sand, it felt like I was on holiday it was a nice feeling to hold Benji’s hand to have told him everything and here we are on Holiday, he didn’t kick me to the curb he didn’t call me a whore he understood and told me he didn’t expect me to stay a virgin.
“What you thinking about?” He asked me as we approached the water. “I was thinking how nice it is to actually be on holiday, with my feet in the sand.” “When last where you on holiday?” I had to think about that one. “Probable in my early teens when my dad took me to Disney World for my Birthday.” “What? How?” “Warren Wayne doesn’t take holidays it’s only work and if they go away, meaning my mom and dad, I needed a babysitter to make sure I didn’t leave the house and go whore around.” “What?” “You heard me that is my father’s words not my own. They did everything in their power to keep me good and clean for you Benji.” He grabbed me around the waist and pulled me to him for a hug. “I’m so sorry I took so much from you.” “That was my life Benji you didn’t take it from me our parents did. Like you said your mom even came here to babysit me when I was on summer break how sick is that?” “Honestly angel it’s fucked up. I really can’t believe them; they all knew what I was doing in Europe. Why they couldn’t give you some slack I wouldn’t know. If I were you, Morne wouldn’t have been the only one I had sex with. That I can promise you.” “Well, I’m not as adventures as you, and I was too afraid to get caught. My father would have killed me.” “I’m sure it wouldn’t have been that bad.” “Benji my father would have physically assaulted me if he found out he still might if he finds out.” “Over my dead body no one will ever lay a hand on you.” I could see on his face he wasn’t happy with what I just told him.
