"My Sweet Jewel"

"My Sweet Jewel" *Chapter 4*

"Love is the delusion that one man or woman is different from the other."

•Kai

I miss my husband so much! I wake up hoping that this is all a dream and that I'm in my own bed then I wake up still here. This isn't at all how I pictured our anniversary. I try to think about that night and the good that occurred before we were separated.
I smiled.
That's how I know he didn't do anything wrong. I mean I understand Spade missing his sister but he has the wrong guy! Antoine wouldn't hurt anyone.
I mean... There was one time.... 
When I came to his job to surprise him with lunch and everyone freaked out and claimed he wasn't there when I knew that he clearly was. I instantly thought that he was having an affair. So once he got home that night I questioned him up and down, and out of all the reactions I wanted from him, I got the one that I least expected. A slap that sent me across the living room table. I held my face in disbelief as he preached to me that I had the life and that my least worry should be him cheating. In his words, I should be "worrying about if my favorite shoes are in shock". I couldn't speak. But he was right, I had the life. What could I complain about? He was all I had, my only family. So that night he apologized and we made love and I forgot why I was even mad.
That was our only mishap. Other than that, he was perfect. Like my Prince Charming that saved me from everything that I was going through. I don't care what anyone says... My husband didn't do anything.

•Spade

When the hell is this nigga Chris gone hit me back? I need these tapes ASAP!
I knew I shouldn't have let her audition. All I wanted to do was be a good big brother and let my sister follow her dreams, but look at what happened.
Man if I don't get my sister back I swear I'm sending some shit up. She all I got left beside my boys.
My phone rang interrupting my thoughts.
"Wassup man, where you at?" I said, irritated.
"I'm going into the office, this shit takes time, I need access codes and shit.... Aye man, I was thinking..."
The phone went silent.
"Chris man I ain't got time for this shit, you was thinking what?"
"You should let him go, so that he could get the pass codes and shit. I mean that's the only way that we gone get Eva back."
I swear I lost it after he said that.
"Nigga what?! Let him go? The fuck you mean let this nigga go? That ain't the only way to get the codes. We gone beat that nigga black and blue until he start speaking. Fuck is you talking about? You helping him or some Blood?" I went off as if he wasn't my cousin.
"Spade man you know I'm down with you til the end but this nigga ain't gone say shit. He got police niggas on his side. How long you think it's gone take them to find him in that little shack you got him in? We gotta think smart. I know him. I can get in his head, you gotta just let him go." Chris kept telling me, but I wasn't hearing it.
"Nah my nigga, that Int gone happen. I'm breaking every bone in that niggas body before I let him walk."
I hung up. Scratching my head, I swear I felt so lost. I needed my sister man. I'm her big brother. I was supposed to protect her. Man I failed. I swear if I don't get my sister back Ima lose it.

•Kai

I paced the room. I don't know why, I just did. Where was Spade? He hasn't come in here in 3 days. He usually checks in me everyday. Now he just sends people to check on me and give me food and clothes.
That's so crazy that he's turned into this. Like Spade? He use to be this sweet skinny boy. He use to be Ezra. I remember in high school when he would try so hard for Brielle's attention. She played him so hard. I remember our sophomore year homecoming.
*Flashback*
"Girl we about to be so lit, like who betta?" Brielle said over the phone.
I stared at the phone. "Bri, why you talking like that?"
"Like what? Look whatever... What you wearing?"
"Hmm... I don't know, maybe a cute crop top with some shorts."
"Nah... Boo we gotta be lit! Like fly hunty!"
I laughed. She must've been reading some magazines cause these words weren't in her vocabulary two days ago.
"I'm just trying to have fun Bri."
"Girl not me, I'm tryna find me a boo. So I know that these red coochie cutters and my cropped sweater with my thigh high boots gone kill it."
"Find you a boo? What about Ezra?"
"What about him? I mean he's sweet. Buys me stuff and does my homework but that's all he's good for."
I shook my head. She was a mess, buuuut she was my bestfriend, so who was I to judge?
"Okay girl, I gotta go, I'll see you st the homecoming." I hung up.
When I got to the homecoming, it was lit! I mean I hate that I used that word but it was. I mean everybody was having a good time. After a few songs and dances, I was tired. I saw Ezra in a corner by himself watching Brielle dancing on this guy while he talked in her ear. He watched her smirk and laugh. I felt so bad for him.
"Hey Ezra, why aren't you out there dancing?"
"Uh...um... Dancing isn't for me." He stuttered.
He was so shy and nervous. Small and rather nerdy. But overall nice looking and respectful.
What happened. That's all I could think of now? What happened.
Spade bursted into the room.
"Put some clothes on, we're going somewhere." He said and walked out.
"Where are we going?" I don't know why I even asked, I was so ready to just leave. I didn't want to be in here any longer.
After I put my shoes on and walked out of the room, Rich was waiting on me. I rolled my eyes at him.
"Nice to see you too." He said.
"Whatever, smart ass"
I grabbed my arms and began tying them together.
"Hey what are you doing? Really?"
"Aye just cause you cute don't mean you won't try to escape."
He finished tying my legs threw me over his back.
"I don't have to gag you, do I?" Rich said.
"No."
After being thrown in the back seat of the car, I watched everything.
From the trees to the clouds to the water to just the air. Things that I never took time to appreciate, I appreciated greatly now. I felt like a prisoner. I needed to just see my husband. I watched the high go from nice houses to the rugged streets of the ghetto.
Where were we going? All of a sudden the car stopped.
"Rich, where are we? Rich... Rich. Answer me." He ignored me and carried me into this apartment building. After being buzzed in, we went to the third floor and waited for the door to be opened. When we got in, he plopped me onto this taped up couch. I was disgusted. How could this be someone's home?
Spade walked in and interrupted my thoughts. He looked good. Polo shirt, nice jeans and loafers. I swear I don't know why I was looking at my kidnapper like this. He looked around and his eyes stopped on me. He walked over to me and untied me.
"Come on, let me show you something"
We walked down the hall and then stopped at this wooden door. He opened it and there was just a metal table with one chair inside.
"Sit down"
I did and I looked at him. He stared at and I could tell that something was bothering him.
"What's going on Spade?"
He didn't answer me, he just stared. Someone walked in and called his name.
"Aye Spade, here you go. I got that for you. I wasn't able to get everything but I got some."
"Iight cool" He took the papers.
He walked over to me and laid out these pictures that were horrifying. It was heartbreaking.

•Spade

She always preached how great her husband was and how much of a saint he was, so I wanted to show her exactly what kind of monster she was married to. I laid the pictures out one by one. From the look on her face, I could tell she was shocked and wondering what this all was.
"Spade...what is this?" She said voicing my thoughts.
"This is Amber, she tried out for one of your husband's movies. She was 14. Look at her now."
Kai looked at the girls body on the bed with maroon colored sheets, from the stained blood.
"What happened to her?" Kai asked.
"Your husband... He raped her!"
I watched her face go from shock to anger.
"Raped her?! Are you serious? Look, I feel sorry for this girl and God rest her soul but a picture of a rape victim doesn't move me. What does my husband have to do with her. My husband would never rape a child! I can't believe you're accusing my husband of this!"
I looked at her in disbelief. She really was brainwashed. She was naive to think that this man was innocent, but she wasn't the only mad one. Looking at these pictures made me even more mad, what if he did this to my sister too? I was ready to kill this motherfucker at just the thought.

•Kai

I was so mad that I was sure steam was coming out of my head. I watched him stare at the pictures apparently in deep thought, until this man walked into the room and whispered something into his ear. He left out of the room.
About 10 minutes later, he was back. He had this weird smirk on his face that kind of scared me.
"We showed him the video and let him go..."
I sighed a sigh of relief, he was going to get help to find me I know he was. A smile spread across my face so quick.
"Thank God!"
He shook his head. "He has 1 week to give up those pass codes and the location of my sister, or you're going back to him in a box."
I looked the seriousness in his face and I got so scared. Spade never looked so serious until then. I feared him even more now. My husband needed to just give him the pass codes and soon!"
Back at the house, it was quiet. I sat back and watched TV. It was strange that I saw nothing about our disappearance on the news.
Spade walked in shirtless with food. I could smell that it was Popeye's and my mouth watered. I hadn't had Popeye's in year because my husband thought that it would mess up my gorgeous body eating too much of it.
I dug in without even asking.
He stared and laughed. We ate in silence and I laid back afterwards stuffed.
"Kai"
"Hmm.." I answered.
"Eva"
"Huh" I said confused.
"That's my sister's name. She's so feisty man. Kinda reminds me of you. Always gotta get the last word... I just wanna protect her. Be a big brother. Ya feel me?"
I got chills as I watched him emotional.
"Spade..." I don't know, but I wanted to hold him, console him. I scooted over to him and wrapped my arms around his broad shoulders. I rested my head in between his neck and listened to him go on and on about how much he loved his sister and it reminded me of my mom and dad and I began to cry.
Here I was wrapped around my kidnapper, crying with him. Is this how this is supposed to go? What am I doing?
Spade turned around and looked at me. "Kai Ima be honest when I found out you were his wife, I was shocked and hurt. I don't wanna have to do this to a childhood friend. You was cool peoples in high school."
We laughed and that laugh turned into a kiss quick. I kissed him and searched for that feeling of guilt, that voice to tell me to stop, that angel on my shoulder to tell me that this wasn't right. But it never came. We kissed and kissed and kissed.
That night we didn't make love, I didn't realize that he was the one that I should've married, but that night...that kiss, made me feel something that I never felt in all my years of being with Antoine.
That night I fell asleep in his arms... With Antoine being the farthest thing from my mind.

I know that I was gone for awhile but I'm back and I hope you enjoy. Plus I have a surprise for you guys!!!
