Charmaine was clocking in when Emily stopped her.
"Hey Charmaine! "


"Hey what's up?"
"Nothing I-uh nevermind"she said in a choppy tone. Obviously she wanted to say more but she didn't.


Charmaine had an idea it had something to do with Omarion.
"You like Omarion and you want me to talk to him for you"she narrowed her eyes.


"Psh what? Me like omari-"
"Emily please "Charmaine laughed crossing her arms
"Is it that obvious?"Emily frowned


"No not really. You only stare very had and blush at everything he says"she said sarcastically. They both laughed and
Emily looked ata her tucking her blond  hair behind her ear.


"Don't worry. I will try to talk to him for you. Just be yourself when your around him."


"I really appreciate it"she smiled faintly.
"No big deal"Charmaine laughed


Emily would have to wait until tomorrow cause today Bear and Omarion were watching over all the ware houses. They made it an appoint to stop by each one twice in one day.


While they did that as usual Charmaine kept Kain club in check. He had heavy security just incase.




There was nothing to do for Charmaine. After all it was her day off. She came in just cause she was around this part of town.


She decided  instead of staying at work to get Malani so they could go costume shopping.


This would be her first time celebrating halloween.


She left going to her apartment. While she was out Tiani was doing Malani hair. Charmaine knew good and well how to do hair. Malani wad just very tender headed and it frustrated Charmaine.


She walked through the hall ignoring the annoying voices of Tyree,Keisha and the rest of the girls.


She unlocked the door and seen Tiani braiding her hair. So far it looked nice.


"Do you like my hair so far?"
"Yes baby"Charmaine said tiredly.


"Hey char"Tiani managed to say with the comb in-between her teeth.


"Hey. I'm going to take a shower and I'll be right back."she said beginning to strip out of her clothes in the hallway.




Charmaine was tired if for anything. She was also drained from being excited about her date with Kain this weekend.


Kain waited for the Jamaican guy to return. Right now he was irritated.


"I have no workers with that name. You can see for yourself"he spoke in his thick accent.


"I trust your word man. Keep an eye out. Remember thirty five grand to locate this guy "Kain said reminding him of their deal.


Now that Kain got a lot of his new business set up he had nothing to do at the moment. He was waiting on his father to get back to him about Griff.


With that free time he had,he went to Jamaica to find the guy who was trying to cross him. Trying to push product on Kain block was a big no-no


He had been looking for this guy for months. Even Kain best guys at finding people couldn't find him.


Now he was paying people to search for him.


When Kain got back to his hotel,he began to pack. His visit was shorter then he thought it would be.


He honestly just wanted to be home and be alone.


When he was leaving his hotel he ran into a fimiliar  face.
"Hey Kain"


"Ciarra right?"
"Mhmm"she smiled nodding her head.


Kain nodded his head to and began to walk when she stopped him.


"I was actually over here to talk to you"
"Your pops sent you to talk business with me?"
"Not exactly"she narrowed her eyes while tucking loose strands of her hair behind her ear.


Kain seen where this was going and he was turned off by woman that threw themselves on him. It wasn't always like that. After he had taken an interest in Charmaine and seen the respect she had he adored it.


"If it ain't money then there really ain't shit to talk about."
"Kain! I seen the way you look at me"she bit her lip.


"Lil' mama you tripping. I ain't checking for you."he walked off.



Charmaine music stopped and a call came through her phone. For the second time today Tyrus had called her.


She swiped the green button over and put the phone to her ear.


"Hello?"
"Charmaine look i'm-"
"You don't have to explain anything. It's fine I understand things come up.... Besides it's not the first time it happened."she smiled softly as if Tyrus could see.


"I hope I don't scare you off but I really like you and I'm willing to make it up to you. "


"No. It's fine. I'm actually seeing someone now and i'm sure he wouldn't appreciate me going on out with other guys"she semi lied.


Kain wasn't her man but she knew where they stood at the end of the day.


Tyrus sighed wiping his hand down his face. Charmaine was everything he ever cheked for in a woman,and it frustrated him that she wasn't available.


"We can still be cool right?"
"Of course"Charmaine agreed with laughter lacing her voice.


They spoke for a few more minutes until Charmaine told him she had to go. She hung up then allowed her music to play again while she rolled up two white owls and two backwoods.


She made sure her door was closed cause she didn't need Malani seeing her.
