A sweet familiar feminine voice answered, “Jay?â€?
“MYSTIQUE? Umm hey, wow I’ve been waiting for your call. Can you hold on one second?â€?
“Sure.â€? He clicked over to the other line.
“Will? That’s Mystique on the other line. Let me call you back.â€? Jay didn’t even wait for Will’s response before switching lines to talk to Mystique.
“Hey, girl. How are you?â€?
“I’m ok. I’ve been thinking lately. Mostly about us. I just needed time to myself. I mean, you really hurt me. For you to tell me that you loved me and then as soon as the money came rolling in, you drop me. I spent night after night crying. The only person I could depend on was my sister, Yasmine. I believe everything that you said to me that night. I just don’t want to regret this decision, Jay. I am really about to take a chance on you.â€?
