Eric almost doubted himself after Tiffany’s spiel. “You… Fine! That’s all I have to say. Do whatever you want. I’m only giving you a reminder. You can’t sport with certain people, neither can you afford to as well. This is to prevent things from getting awkward when we meet Arianne in the future. Jackson’s never one to force others. If you’re reluctant to, nothing will happen between you both. Done and dusted, think about it yourself.”
Tiffany rolled her eyes at him. “Okay, okay. Thank you for your reminder. Now go away, don’t block my source of light!”
…
Forty minutes later, Brian dropped Arianne off at the White Waters Bay. The door to Jackson’s house was left ajar, but she still knocked first.
When Tiffany heard it, she sprinted to pull the door open like a gust of wind. “Ari!”
Arianne was surprised. “Tiffie, why are you here?”
Pulling the girl inside, Tiffany explained briefly, “Found a part-time job. I’m working by the hour here. Some cleaning and whatnot…”
Arianne felt her heart clench. Tiffany could have been like the rest of the men here…
She did not show what she was feeling inside nor did she further question it. Smelling the scent of cigarettes in the living room, she went to open the windows.
