"Sit."He barked.Wow somebody was in a foul mood.She sat quietly waiting for his instructions or for him to say something, he was staring blankly at his computer."So it turns out there is a missing person’s report, have you any idea who would have reported you missing?"Mariyah opened her eyes in shock.
"No idea…" She didn't have a clue.
"Are you fucking with me right now?"Shaking her head quickly knowing this was serious.
"No I promise, I don't know.Why would you think I would know?"
"Mariyah, if you had something to do with this you need to tell me now.I'm not fucking playing with you."
"Zak I swear to you I had nothing to do with it.Is anything I say going to make you believe me?"
"How am I supposed to believe you?You have done nothing but lie and deceive me at any given opportunity.If not you, then who the fuck would file a missing person’s report on you?"She was starting to panic, he was really pissed.Brent… It had to be Brent.
"I don't know.What's the big deal?I'll go to the police and tell them I'm not missing."
"The big deal is who the fuck is that worried about you to go to that much fucking trouble?An ex-lover perhaps?"Shit Zak being paranoid and jealous was not a good combination.
"I already told you, I haven't been with anybody else.Why can't you just take my word on it?"
"Because you were fucking gone for a year, how the hell am I supposed to know what the fuck you did for that year?Tell me Mariyah who have you been fucking in my absence?"Mariyah rubbed her hands on her face.This was going to end bad.He was going to lose his shit and she was in for it.
"Let's just go to the police and find out who filed the report.I have nothing to hide."She was hoping he would see she was telling the truth.
"Yep sounds like a fucking plan.Go put some decent fucking clothes on.”What was wrong with her jeans skirt and singlet?
***
Walking out to the car, Mariyah hoped he approved of her long white summer dress.It showed a little cleavage but nothing to freak out over.She loved the way the dress fell to her ankles.She accessorized with a brown belt and brown sandals.Leaving her hair down applying a little mascara and some gloss.He did a double take when he saw her and if she wasn't mistaken saw lust in his eyes.
Just as she was about to get into the very expensive looking black Merc, Olivia storms out clearly unhappy."And what the fuck is this?"
"Not now Olivia, just business."Olivia stared at Mariyah up and down.
"Really?Look at her she looks like a fu..."
"Olivia I said not now.Mariyah get in the fucking car."Sure he speaks nice to Olivia and Mariyah gets a get in the fucking car.
"Your girlfriend has serious insecurities."Zak glared when Mariyah spoke."I'm just saying."She mumbled after her gave a deadly look.
"Mariyah do you have any idea how pissed I am with you?Any at all?Watch yourself."
"I have done nothing wrong, I have nothing to be scared of."
"Let's hope not."His words were a threat.She had a feeling that she was going to cop this one whatever the outcome was.She never slept with anybody else but for some reason he refused to believe her.
After a long drive, Zak finally pulled over by a police station, Zak grabbed her arm and looked hard at her."Not one word out of place Mariyah, you hear?"She nodded.She was going to be on her best behavior maybe then he would ease up on her a little.When they exited the car, Zak grabbed the nape of her neck and walked her in to the police station.
"Can I help you?"The female officer behind the desk asked.
Thankfully after an hour it was sorted.It was an anonymous person who made the report.The police asked where she was staying and Mariyah had buckled not knowing how to answer.Luckily Zak stepped in and gave them the address and welcomed them any time to check if she was being held against her will.
When in the car, Zak looked murderous, "Save your fucking self the trouble and tell me who he is."She knew it, nothing she said to him would make him believe her.
"I don't have a name to tell you, I haven't slept with anybody else.I don't know how to make you believe me."Zak banged on the steering wheel and Mariyah jumped.
"When I think of you fucking around I want to squeeze your neck and break it."How to control this mad lunatic?
"I was trying to deal with never seeing you again.I was all alone, Zak the only person I wanted was you.Why is that so hard for you to see?I couldn't eat or sleep, all I did was think about your touch, your smell, your kiss..."She prayed he was calming down."Nothing mattered to me except the fact that I left you.Even if I had wanted to be with anybody else nobody in the world appealed to me Zak.I just wanted you.I still just want you."She was crying, every word she spoke was the truth.He had to feel it, she had nothing left.
