Chapter 44: The night is Ruined!
Jason could not say anything on the way home. He was still shocked at having seen Reba again.
He had alot of questions , that he needed answers to but his pride had made him leave her there and
gone home with Phoebe. Reba must haveughed him to scorn thinking that he had run off like a
coward because he couldn''t face her. He wondered why he had not waited a little bit and asked the
questions that had been eating him up inside.
He didn''t know what became of Terry with who she had run off with and why she felt she had to do all

that she had done to him.
He had thought that he was over her but havinge face to face with her, he was not sure anymore
but he was damned if he was going to let her have any inkling of his confused emotions.
He knew that he had to speak to Phoebe to exin some things to her. It was not fair to be silent this
way but he just could not help it. It felt like his past hade back to haunt him.
''Oh God, she was so beautiful'', he thought to himself. More beautiful than she had been when they
were together and it rattled him that that was the case. He had tried all he could to give her the best.
Howe she was looking better than when they had been together or was he thinking that she was
because it had been a little over a year since they hadst seen?
He didn''t know that he had thought aloud and was shocked when Phoebe replied, ''Yes she is, isn''t
she?''
He looked at her in confusion
He had thought that he had thought about it in his head but he had obviously spoken put loud for
Phoebe to have said this bit to be sure, he asked, ''Who is?''
''Your ex wife of course,who else were you referring to? I definitely know I was not the one you were
thinking of just now'', she said smiling with understanding. At least she hoped that that was the emotion
he would read on her face but she was really furious at everything and everyone and wondering why
things seemed not to be going her way. She felt that she had to do something pretty fast if she was
going to secure her most desired position.
Nancy was no threatpared to Reba because it would take Jason time to love Nancy but with
Reba,it was different. He had loved her passionately before and it was easy to rekindle the old
me. Only a spark from that very beautiful and extremely sexy woman would set Jason aze with
love for her again and then where would she be with all her scheming and plotting?
Jason looked at her and saw her understanding look and something else which he could not decipher
but felt that it could be pity and was angry . He did not want anyone''s pity.
''Yes, Reba is beautiful and have always been. It is not anything new. But are you alright?'' he asked.
''Of course I am alright. I had a nice time this evening. But the luncheon was somewhat boring and I
was d we could leave early''.
Jason felt that she had said it to make him feel better and appreciated it.
''Thanks for saying that but I know you lied but it''s okay. I am okay. It had been a shock to see Reba
after this time but I was already over her long ago, so you do not have to feel pity for me. It is not
necessary''.
''Are you indeed? I mean, over her? It didn''t look that way to me but it is okay. You do not owe me any
exnations and she is indeed a very sexy and irresistible woman, no one can me you for finding
her attractive'', Phoebe smiled again. She hoped this conversation would end because it was beginning
to grate on her nerves and she did not know how long she would keep up this cheerful chatter when
she felt like screaming or going to a corner and crying out her frustration at the injustices she had
continued to endure in the hands of men.
They were all after one thing and that was her body and she was just tired. It was time she started
getting her own back on them and that was what she had intended since they had met.
She felt that she had waited ling enough. There was no time to waste anymore. Drastic situations
called for drastic measures.
She knew that this night was already ruined for her and it was the fault of that ex wife of his.. There was
no way, Jason was going to spend the night with her now.
As they drew close to her residence, she got her things ready to get out of the car.
Jason stopped the car in front of her apartment and walked her to the door. He gave her a brief kiss
and was going to turn round and leave when she asked, ''Would youe in for coffee?''
He didn''t care for it but he felt that he must have ruined her day and the least he could do was oblige
her.
''Love to'', he smiled, took the keys from her and opened the door and went in after her.
She went to the kitchen got the kettle on fire for the coffee, hoping that the day was not totally ruined
and that he would either invite her over to his mansion or spend the night in her apartment.
After drinking the coffee, Jason got up.
''Thank you so much for a wonderful day, Phoebe. It may not have been all that you had hoped it would
be but it will be remedies next time. Goodnight''.
''Goodnight'', she replied, giving him a wet kiss that could have changed the mind of any other man but
Jason was just not in the mood for that.
He opened the door and stepped out.
Phoebe stood at the door with a smile until Jason drove off and then the smile fell and her expression
was really murderous.
Unknown to the both of them, a pair of eyes had been watching them. The person smiled and walked
away, having got the answered that they needed.
She had been turned on and now, she knew she could not sleep without having sex with someone. She
went in again got her t slipper and went out intending to getid one way or the other beforeing
back that night. If it meant spending the night out, she would do it.
