Forever and a Day

chapter 34 (Two Weeks Later)

“Everything was me you stupid bitch. He belongs to me.” - Unknown

Brielle exited the doctor’s office. She was excited about getting her day started. She hadn't received any notes within the two weeks. She hoped they were done for good. Lucky for her Danielle was getting better and better everyday. Danielle had gone back to work but she still walked around with her arm cast because her arm was broken in more than one place. But she was back to her defensive sassy self.

Brielle had a lot to be thankful. She had Kiyan and their relationship blossomed more and more everyday. They had basically moved in with each other. It started out with her just staying at his house so that he could make sure she was safe at all times. But then it was her staying there because she genuinely loved being around him. He would take her to work when she didn't want to drive and pick her up. He made sure he was home at decent times at night. He was the perfect boyfriend. She had finally met his mother and they fell madly in love with each other. Aniya loved Brielle like she was the daughter she always wanted.

Brielle had finally met Kiyan's mysterious best friend Mercedes. Brielle laughed as she thought back to the day she had met Mercedes. Brielle was cleaning up around her house when she noticed a girl on her porch about to ring the bell. She just knew in her mind that the girl was coming to approach her about Kiyan. She had been through it so many times with Jaiden that it was almost expected that her happiness would soon end.

"Hey, can I help you?" Brielle asked the well-dressed woman on her porch. "Hey are you Brielle?" Mercedes asked.

"Last time I checked I was," Brielle said knowing trouble would soon to follow.

"Yeah he was definitely right. You are a defensive little one," Mercedes laughed.


"Who is he?"

"Kiyan. Can I come in?"

"I would let you come in but I don’t have a clue as to who you are."

"Oh my bad girl. I'm Mercedes. I'm Kiyan's best friend and the missing link to the clique." Mercedes introduced herself.

The rest is what you call history. Brielle and Mercedes kept in touch often since Mercedes had been house hunting so she could move back to New Jersey to be closer to her brothers. Brielle knew from the first time that Mercedes spoke about Kiyan, Cam, Ty, and Zo that she would do basically anything for them. She knew that Mercedes had good intentions and she wanted the best for them. After meeting Brielle and her friends, Mercedes knew that her brothers were in great hands. The ladies were genuine and loyal and that’s all she asked for.

Brielle got in her car and began to warm in up when she pulled her phone out to call Kiyan.

“Wassup ma?” Kiyan answered.

“Nothing much. Just leaving the doctor’s office.” Brielle smiled.

“Everything straight?” He asked.

“Everything is perfect.”

“You seem happy. Wassup with that? I gotta go f*ck your doctor up?” Kiyan joked.

“No fool. I can’t be happy?” Brielle laughed.

“You can be happy, but not because some other man was just touching you.” Kiyan laughed.

“You are the worse boy. What are you doing?” Brielle said changing the subject.

“I’m at Shanice’s house. She is cooking breakfast.”

“You are so freaking greedy yo. I just cooked breakfast for you before I left your house this morning.” Brielle said.

“I’m a growing man. I have to eat.” Kiyan laughed.

“No you are a greedy ass man. What am I going to do with you?” Brielle sighed.

“Love me.”

“Too late. I already love you.”

“Well love me some more. I need all the love I can get.”

“I give you all my love everyday.”

“I give you mine too. I walk around everyday without a heart because it’s with you.”

“You hear this nigga. He’s a sucker.” Brielle heard Zo in the background laughing with Shanice.

“Tell Zo don’t be a hater all his life, he will permanently become one.” Brielle laughed.

“You heard her.” Kiyan said taking Brielle off speaker.

“Yeah iight.” Zo said.

“What are you doing right now?” Kiyan asked.

“I’m warming the car up. It’s freezing out here. When I walked out of the car it was 29 degrees. I get back in its 20. I hate mother nature.” Brielle said.

“Why you think I told you to dress in layers this morning? This weather aint no joke.”

“I know. But I have to meet with some potential client that Keyshia set up and then I’ll meet you at your house around 4?” Brielle asked.

“My house could be our house if you say yes.” Kiyan reminded her of his proposal to move in with him.

“I told you we’ll talk about it tonight. I have something special up my sleeves for you.” Brielle said.

“Oh really?”

“Really. So let me go meet this client, so I could go home and prepared for it.” Brielle said.

“Iight cool. I’m going to let you go.” Kiyan said.

“Love you.” Brielle said.

“I love you more,” Kiyan said and hung up.

Brielle looked in her phone for Keyshia’s number so she could text her.

Brielle: Hey Keysh, I need the address to the place.

Keyshia: Hey Bri. The address is 458 Stadium Rd. 3rd floor. Go straight up the elevator

Brielle: Thanks love.

Keyshia: Do you want me to meet you there?

Brielle: No, its okay. I’m going to just to give him information and a contract to look over and then I’m going home for the day.

Keyshia: Okay. I’ll hold down the fort for you.

Brielle: That’s right. You’re in charge.

Keyshia: I like the sound of that.

Brielle: Lol. Make sure if you need me you text me. I’m still the boss girl.

Keyshia: Gotchu. I’ll see you Monday :]

Brielle: See ya.

Brielle put the information into her car’s GPS and began on her 30-minute drive to meet her potential client. Brielle was on an all time high. She couldn’t stop smiling. She was excited to set up her date with Kiyan. She had plans to go visit Danielle first thing in the morning. She had a shopping trip with the rest of her girls on Saturday. Then Sunday, Keem had given them tickets to see the Eagles play the Giants in Philly. She had so many things to be excited for.

She rode in the car playing Jon B’s They Don’t Know. This song was definitely written for her and Kiyan. They had only been dating for a couple months but their love was strong. Before Brielle knew it she was in front of an office building. She grabbed her phone, contract folder and clutch and proceeded to go inside the building.

Brielle signed in at the security desk and rode the elevator to the 3rd floor. She noticed that on the left side of the 3rd floor was still under construction. She went up to the 318 suite and was greeted by an assistant preparing to go home.

“Hello. You must be Ms. Williams?” The assistant smiled.

“My boss told me that you would be here. I was headed home, but he told me to tell you when you come in to come straight in.” The young girl smiled.

“Thank you. You seem so sweet.” Brielle smiled at the young girl.

“Thank you. Have a nice day and hopefully I’ll be seeing you around often.”

“Hopefully.” Brielle smiled and walked towards the office door.

Brielle walked in the office and noticed that the office chair was faced towards the window, so she decided to introduce her self.

“Hey. I’m Ms. Williams. I’m looking for a Ms. Oliver.

“Take a seat, I’ll be right with you.”

Brielle took the seat and sent a quick text to Keyshia and Kiyan telling them she had made it to the meeting.

Keyshia: Hey Keysh. I just made it here.

Kiyan: Hey Babe. I just made it to my meeting. I’ll text you when I’m about to leave. Love ya. <3

“So we meet again.” The voice said.

“Excuse me,” Brielle said slipping her phone in her purse without looking up.

“I said, “So we meet again” bitch.”

Brielle looked up and was shocked to see Samara smiling at her.

“What the hell? Samara what are you doing here?”

“I’m here to meet with the state’s best image consultant. Ms. Brielle f*cking Williams.”

“I’m out of here.” Brielle said standing up.

“Wait, don’t leave so soon.” Samara smiled.

“There is absolutely nothing for us to discuss. So thank you for wasting my time.” Brielle said turning towards the door.

“Where were you going?” Another voice said coming through the door.

When Brielle looked up she was speechless. She couldn’t believe her eyes.

“What are you doing here?” She asked.

“This is the only way I could speak to you right? To set your dumb ass up.” Murder spoke.

“How do the two of you know each other?” Brielle asked.

“We have enemies in common.” Murder laughed sinisterly.

“I don’t have time for this. I’m out of here.” Brielle said trying to walk around him.

“No you’re not. You stuck here lil mama.”

“Jaiden, I don’t have time for the games MOVE.” Brielle said seriously.

“Good because I’m not playing games, sit your ass down.” Jaiden said pulling out his gun.

Brielle was speechless. She never knew Jaiden would be capable of doing something so cruel to her. She knew Jaiden was pushy ever since they broke up, but she didn’t know that he was capable or something so sinister.

“What do you want Jaiden?” Brielle asked.

“At first I wanted to see your ass suffer, but then it wasn’t even about you anymore.” Jaiden said.

“Then why am I here?”

“You are here because you had way more enemies than just me. You see Samara here you pissed her off something mean. She wanted to kill you on sight but me being the loving person I am convinced her that killing you wasn’t the option.”

“Samara you have no reason to hate me.” Brielle said.

“What are you f*cking kidding me? How about when you took my main money resource away from me? I had nothing to worried about during the two months me and Kiyan was dating, but then all of a sudden I get a text from him asking to be just friends. Friends don’t give other friends the type of money he was giving me when we were dating.” Samara yelled.

“This is all over Kiyan not giving you money?” Brielle asked dumbfounded.

“Exactly.” Samara said not ashamed about her gold digging ways.

“If this is about money I can give you money. Just let me go.” Brielle looked up to Jaiden.

“The type of money I want only your lover boy could give me.” Samara said.

“Well I will tell him to give it to you!” Brielle pleaded.

“Nope. Not an option. I’ll get it my way and my way only.” Samara said.

“Brielle, do you know that you’re not a likeable person?” Jaiden asked.

“The only people don’t like me is you and Samara.” Brielle said.

“You’re wrong again. I know some one else who hates you more than me and Samara put together.” Murder laughed.

“Impossible.” Brielle said.

“Let’s bring in your surprise guest.” Murder said opening door without taking his eyes and gun off of Brielle.

Brielle could not believe her eyes. As Murder opened the door Keyshia came strutting in.

“Keyshia.” Brielle whispered.

“Yeah bitch it’s me.” Keyshia laughed.

“How could you?” Brielle frowned.

“How could I? No the question is how could you bitch.” Keyshia jumped in Brielle’s face.

“You took my man twice, you threatened to fire me, and then the most obvious reason, you aint shit.”

“Keyshia news flash Kiyan wasn’t your man to take.”

“I’m not talking about just Kiyan.”

“Then who else?”

Keyshia walked over and tongue kissed Murder.

“Ewww.” Brielle said frowning up her face.

“I don’t want him. You can have him.” Brielle said seriously.

“You can’t give me somebody that I had all along.” Keyshia said.

“What are you talking about?” Brielle asked confused.

“The pictures you got of him and another girl, yeah that was me. The girl that was playing on your phone, yeah that was me too. Everything was me you stupid bitch. Jaiden belongs to me.”

Brielle couldn’t believe her ears. She was pissed off. Not because Keyshia and Jaiden were together but because Keyshia was the cause of her doubting every other man after Jaiden. Brielle got up and smacked the shit out of Keyshia.

“You bitch. I hope you burn in hell.” Brielle yelled.

“I’ll be there right along with you.” Keyshia said.

“Tie her up.” Keyshia told Samara.

Samara went inside the desk and grabbed the duck tape and tied Brielle’s wrist together and her mouth.

“Now its time to make that call to Mr. Money Man.” Samara smiled.

Samara grabbed Brielle’s clutch and grabbed her phone to call Kiyan. She began to dial the number and laughed when she saw Brielle and Kiyan’s picture pop up as Kiyan’s default image.

“Cute.” Samara said sarcastically.

“Wassup ma? You done already?” Kiyan said answering.

“This isn’t your ma nigga.” Murder said grabbing the phone.

“Who the f*ck is this and where the hell is my girl?” Kiyan said looking at his phone.

“Your girl is in a little sticky situation, but if you play your cards right I might be nice and let you speak to her after I’m done.”

“Yo who is this?” Kiyan asked.

“Your worse nightmare.” Murder laughed.

“What the hell you want and why do you got my girl?” Kiyan asked.

“I want a $600,000 and I want it from you. I got your girl because that’s how I know I’m guaranteed to get my money.”

“$600,000. You got that. Just leave my girl alone.” Kiyan said.

“Don’t tell me what to do nigga. Just make sure you got my money.” Murder said.

“I got you. Let me speak to my girl.”

“You got 1 minute to speak to this bitch. Don’t try me.” Murder said snatching the tape off of Brielle’s mouth.

“Ouch damn it.” Brielle yelled.

“Hello?” Kiyan said.

“Hey Kiy.” Brielle said.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

“I’m okay.”

“Did they hurt you?”

“No, I’m okay.”

“Where are you?” Kiyan asked.

“Nigga don’t get stupid.” Murder yelled.

“I told you I didn’t want this stupid ass iPhone.” Brielle said.

“What?” Kiyan asked confused.

“I said I told you I didn’t want this stupid ass iPHONE.” Brielle repeated.

“I’m sorry ma. I know I f*cked up.” Kiyan said picking up on what Brielle was saying.

“I’m going to come get you soon as I get this money together.” Kiyan assured Brielle.

“Please, come save us.” Brielle yelled before Murder hung up the phone.

“Looks like we’ll wait until your man gets our money. Until then I suggest you get comfortable.” Murder said putting the tape back over her mouth and smiled. Brielle just lowered her head and cried.
