🏡 Chapter 26 🏡

           🏡 Antoine's pov 🏡

  In order to get the housing agency to come and validate Ms. Jennifer's house without them knowing, I had to take Dean with me to Rema. I was glad she showed no interest towards the dance, her focus was on Maritime university and with her in her new books that she had purchased- I move about doing what I had to without her surmising anything.

  I was in between buying one of the two houses I had been to view in a different part of St. Thomas, they were in close proximity to the plaza and that was a bonus. My problem was that I needed to make up my mind and get the house ready before I get Ms. Jennifer's house sold and we have to move out.

  Dean was deep in sleep when I told her I was going around to the dance and I was glad, she had been deep in one of her books each time I came into the house so I knew she must be tired and sleepy. The good news of the price the agency gave us earlier that day, made me eager to pay for the house that I finally decided upon. I wanted the refurbishing and extra rooms to be finished before I return from overseas.

  Wether Dean want to or not we are getting married, then whatever contraceptive she is on she will be getting off of it so she can conceive. I am now getting up in age, soon I will be forty and we'll be travelling all over- so that I can get a break from these law authorities. My mom will be kept busy with her grandkids so she won't have time to be bored and Erica, hopefully she will stay with that dude and they're happy together. My chappas will be well alright and Demar will know how hard it is to keep everything and everyone in line.

          Dean's pov

  I should do a course to be a technical engineer also, it was not that hard I thought as I slammed the panel shut and went outside to Demar. He sat in the dark corner at the back and I went and sat right on his lap, his arms envelope me into a warm embrace and we began to kiss immediately. I don't know which one of us initiated it, I had told myself that we would abstain- but with each second the kiss got deeper and deeper.

  When we break apart from the kiss I relaxed in his embrace. "Wha kinda a quickie dem dey yuh a gi di man?" Demar ask and I look at him in surprise questioningly.

  "Lastnight uno only fuck fi less than three minutes," he stated looking at me.

  I was shock and wish I could see his face and eyes clearer. "How yuh know dat?" I ask feeling embarrassed that he knew.

  He snorted then said. "Mi just did a guess but yuh just confirm it, mi did dem pon di scope and due to di time when mi see di light lock off den tun on back mi a sey a caan fuck uno fuck and done suh quick."

  I was lost for words and retorted in vexation at him. "Raquel and yuh rest a 'oman dem nuh must a fuck pon yuh when yuh dey ina aneda crotches.

"Mi an' Raquel lef' long time and mi nuh get nuh time fi fuck from waday, infact mi a rest mi back. You nuh stop dash it out pon Antoine," he said the latter part spoken in a haunted voice.

  I sighed heavily wondering if he was jealous, so I decided to just ask. "Yuh jealous?"

  "From the very first time until now," he said lowly.

  I was troubled by this revelation and his calmness, he had to be lieing and just messing with me. "Liar," I said pinching his arm.

"Mi and him stand fi fall out before him guh or come back from foreign," he said sounding depress.

"Him a guh wey?" I ask in surprise.

"Yes, week after next," he stated holding down his head.

"Why you and him out fi fall out?" I ask getting up from his lap.

"Don't feel like me a guh tell yuh everything, suh nuh badda press mi," he stated firmly.

  This is a moment I had been dreading, I swallowed and said. "Him want yuh fi tek out di prime minister, which is more than likely a suicide mission."

  He stood up quickly staring at me. "How yuh know dat?" He ask nervously and I was surprise that he was.

"Mi know good while now, mi actually find out from di same time mi find out sey him dey wid di detective 'oman, I told him.

  He took a deep breath releasing it upon a sigh. "Come-in like him waan get rid a mi, or mek mi guh spend di rest a my life ina prison. Di man nuh deserve fi dead and him can go and do it instead of wanting me to, him nah guh sink mi- him might tek wey mi and mi bredda passport and feel like him can hol' mi dung but more ways dey," he said with a deep underlying sadness etched into his voice.

  "Wey mi learn bout him, everything him duh- him do it suh dat people owe him and once him duh somn fi yuh it's like yuh obligated to him from there after. Imagine him and him mumma come see wi live ina wi house and she di madda a help him fi sell it behind me and mi madda back. All now it come-in like a dream, mi caan believe dem possess such dark ways- it mek mi pree deep," I told him.

"Right now mi just waan bill by miself and think, cause mi affi find a way outta dis by any means necessary- Antoine ship out fi sink an' mi nuh waan get caught ina it," Demar said and turn to leave.

"We e talk," he said and quietly opens the gate.

  I went inside and restart the cameras then went upstairs back to his room. On opening his safe I saw only a few stacks of local currency, that was strange I thought as I went to lie down. I've already checked every inch of the house, so unless he has another safe in the house or elsewhere I have no idea where he's hiding his money.

  Cam's surprise of telling us she was about four months pregnant was met with concern from my mother, she wanted us far away from here and happy before welcoming another member to our family. I told Adajay all that was going on and I pretended that I was getting my things organized for Maritime university while seeking out ways to leave.

  Antoine was busy but I knew he would be coming home for sex in the last few days before he leaves, I place a pad underneath me feigning that I was on my period and cursing the contraceptive. With a force embrace I wish him a safe travel and time abroad, I was glad when he drive off to the airport with his mother and the children.

  I went through the room that was now referred to as hers like a whirlwind. Finding original documents of a house he had bought same place in St. Thomas, I made forge copies of it and place it back where I find it. I took one of the set of keys and I went and got it validated and put on sale by an estate agency, it was easy when I had access to his I D and everything else needed.

When Demar told me he found a way to leave and he was going to, I told him I was leaving with him also. Hot chase kisses whenever we meet up was causing us to be horny for each other, but we abstain and avoided meeting unless it was important.

  Our house was sold and we were given two months to move out, Cam told Desmond of our plan and he was in agreement thankfully- it was either that or Cam was leaving him so he made the right choice. I collected my things back from Adajay and give them to Demar, he did not say how we were leaving but I trust him.

  He came in a truck disguised as a goods truck driver one day, to collect all the food stuff that could be taken with us. When he was gone my mother said that she knew we had feelings for each other from a long time ago. She began to cry while talking about our past, I was glad that she wasn't angry- but was rather really concerned and ask if I was sure about him.

  I told her the truth that I wasn't sure but I was taking a leap of faith, her fiancé came spending two weeks and she told me and Cam that she would call him after we reach our destination and explain the situation to him. If he chose to come or not come she will be ok, she wanted to live in peace and hopes never to meet another Anthonia or Ann-marie for the rest of her life.

  With Antoine almost due to come back, Demar finally gives us a date and time for departure. Should everything go well we will be far away by the time he returns.
