Be My Naked Love

“Yes, his son. Why are you yelling so loud? He did not tell you about him?”, Ariana asked.

“No, he never said such a thing,”Vanessa answered with tears in her eyes. She immediately wiped them off. “What was the reason she was crying?”, she thought.

“The kid’s name is Jason, he is about seven years old now”, Ariana told Vanessa, who wore a shocking face throughout her speech.

“Wow, he did not even say anything about his past relationships”, Vanessa informed his mother.

“His highschool girlfriend Bianca had him a year after their graduation. Bianca died during the child’s birth so Jason now stays with his mother’s family here in Milan”, Ariana concluded. Vanessa was quiet and was thinking of how much more mystery and misery she’s going to find out.

“Be My Naked Love, that is what he asked me to be.”Vanessa said as she read it off one of the envelopes in the car. Ariana was watching her, so as soon as Vanessa tried to reach for it she blocked her. It made Vanessa more curious to find out what it is.

*****

About thirty two to thirty seven minutes later, they arrived at their destination.

“We are here”, Ariana announced.

“But it’s the store not your grandson’s house anymore.”, Vanessa said even though she was really admiring the exterior decor of the store. Ariana laughed out loud, really loud. She walked towards Vanessa and said,Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“Andre has no son. I have no grandson. The journey was boring so I needed to do something. It was just a prank, but he should really tell you about the messy girls he had dated”.

“What the f*ck!!! You got me so fucking scared”, Vanessa informed her.

They both laughed and walked into the store.

“Mommy, where’s daddy?”, young Kelly asked her mom.

“Baby, I told you he went out to town to do some work. He would be back soon”, Michelle told her daughter Kelly.

“Can I call him to talk to him on video later?”, the young girl asked again.

“Yes, you can talk to him now.”, Michelle told her daughter as she placed a call to her daughter’s father, Miles.

*****

Miles saw the call, but he was afraid to answer it where he was. Two reasons; because he did not want Trey and Lance to see him and he was not sure asking for privacy would be nice. They could easily eavesdrop. The other reason was because he was not where he told Michelle he would be. Kelly was already four years old. He had her when her mother Michelle slept with him. He was dating Vanessa but she was far away in college. Michelle got pregnant and refused to get rid of the child. He actually went out of Beverly Hills to spend time with his daughter Kelly because staying here when Vanessa did not want to talk to him was discomforting. If Vanessa finds out, she would never ever forgive him. He ended the call and sent a text.

“Hey Mich,

How are you? I assume Kelly wants to speak with me, that is why you are calling. Please tell her I am in a meeting. I would call her as soon as we are done. Love you both ”

Miles then shut his phone down.

Vanessa has been picking outfits for the past one hour and a few minutes and she’s been having fun. She basically could have whatever she wanted. While checking one of the bags, a man hit her mistakenly, making her stub her toe.

“Oh my-, I am sorry ma”, the young man cried out. The voice sounded so very much familiar.

It was Robert from the restaurant.

“Robert, Robert. We will meet again”, Vanessa said as she smiled. It felt like his presence healed her.

As he offered a hand to pull her up, a cough came from behind him. It was his girlfriend Danica. She immediately helped Vanessa up and let go off her hand. She saw the look on Danica’s face and she said thank you, turned around to continue her shopping.

*****

“I need your help”, Vanessa turned back as she talked to Robert. Danica was about fuming and turning red so quickly, but Robert held her hand and made sure Vanessa did respect his girlfriend’s presence. He was also very cautious of the wild animal, Andre.

“Okay, what help do you need?”, the young man asked.

“Can we talk in your car? I’d meet you there”, Vanessa asked.

“Sure, fine”, he answered.

Vanessa quickly went on to get her items checked and packaged. She told Ariana she wanted to put them in the car, but she went inside of Robert’s car instead.

“How did she know you have a car?”Danica asked Robert.

“Oh, you have a lot of explaining to do”, Danica added.

*****

“That’s so cruel and wicked of him”, Danica said.

She got emotional with Vanessa and they both cried. Robert had driven them to his brother’s girlfriend’s apartment, so that Andre won’t have an easy trace of their exact location.

“Please I need your help to run back to the United States”, Vanessa pleaded with the couple.

“You know this is risky. We are putting our lives in danger if we try to help you escape from him”, Robert said.

“He could even sue us for kidnapping”, Robert added.

Silence ruled over the room immediately.

*****

“Where is Vanessa?”, Andre asked Ariana. He just got to the store.

“She said she wanted to drop her items in the car”, Ariana answered.

“She is not anywhere around here”, Andre announced.

“What do you mean?!”, Ariana said out loud as she stood up to join the search.

“Let’s check the CCTV footage”, Andre ordered.

They hurried up to the room and then watching the footage, they found out she had gone out with a guy and a lady. The man’s face could not be identified because he wore a face cap and at no point made a direct look at any of the cameras.

“We can check the car they came with using the outside’s footages”, Andre’s mother suggested.

This could have been the solution only that the car was parked in a way that from the store footages, the plate number of the car could not be seen.

“We have to find that lady, Now! and Fast!”, Andre ordered.

“If she really thinks she’s smart, she has messed with the wrong person”, he murmured.
