Glenda's Blues

The next day I headed to Harris Tower..The sleek new highrise and home to the multi-national conglomerate known as "The Harris Group" ,the company that once owned Hype Magazine , where I was employed...

I was the Editor and Chief of that Magazine....They were planning to fire me and sell my magazine to someone else... Only I beat them to the punch...I had been stockpiling some cash for awhile....and had made some sound investments that had paid off...I put together a group that consisted of my good friends, Chris Thompson ,Chess and Donald Smooth, who owned apartments,condos and lofts as well as two major shopping centers and other businesses in our community....My wife, Sepia and her partner Bonita Foxworth ..

who own a very successful real estate business and my good friend and my wife's cousin, Clerow, who with his partner ,Owen Todd owns Storage space ,Apartments,Lofts and Condos that they manage...

Our little investment group bought Hype Magazine from The Harris Group...Lock stock and barrel.
I then turned it into Morris Communications and Investigations...We now had several magazines..a satellite radio station, a cable TV station, a music streaming service, and produced several websites and podcasts...
As of this writing..I was in negotiations to buy Meek Rollins's recording studio.....

Chris and Chess gave me one of their buildings to use as our headquarters and in the sub-basement of that same building ,I set up my Investigative agency...Peeping Tom ,one of my operatives and I bought spyware and computers and equipment that would rival any modern police department for investigation purposes and I was able to officially hire my friends, Kool Kat, Clerow, Owen Todd, Sean Jackson, Peeping Tom himself and Lockpick Johnson as "Investigative Consultants." In additional,I hired five other operatives, four ex-CIA operatives and one guy who used to be in the KGB...

I paid them under the table with discretionary funds back when I was apart of the Harris Group... In my last days with them...Their accountants were suspicious of them and their role in helping me as a Private Investigator...Now that I was the Big Cheese...The CEO and COO respectively...I didn't have to explain them...They officially worked for me....I took Sean Jackson, his wife Sheila, my second in command and 90 former employees with me...I was able to double their salary and give them a nice Health Benefits package and an Educational package...So far..None of them have left me..They've in fact, brought more good people to my company...

So entering their new building today as an independent businessman brought great pride to me...I never expected to have anything else to do with the Harris Group...Even though I had just recently helped one of their operatives in a case...

I was here to see Glenda Brown, a shapely and very attractive Black Attorney, whose name and phone number I found on an iphone I took from Brad Garrison's last residence...

I called her private number...To my surprise..She answered it..Not a secretary...

"Hello....Glenda Brown...Attorney at Law, Harris Group..To whom am I speaking?" she said..

She had a very Melodic voice..

"I'm Kevin Morris....I'm a private investigator...We spoke earlier..."I said.

"I'll buzz you up." she said.

II-

Glenda's office was one floor from the top in the corner...I was impressed...

"Nice...very impressive...A corner office on the next to top floor...You've come a long way from the District Attorney's office.."I said..

She was surprised that I knew of her history...

"Have we met before?" she asked..

"I doubt that seriously...but I am a private investigator...I make it my business to know as much about people as I can before I meet them.." I said smiling..

"What did you say your name was again?" she asked.

"Morris..Kevin Morris...I'm a Private Investigator...I found your name and cell phone number in a phone owned by the late Brad Garrison..." I said.

She looked sad...

"I heard about him...An overdose....We were together...For three years...It wasn't what you think...I was an Assistant District Attorney....not his lawyer, not his agent...I was his girlfriend... "she said.

We walked a floor up to a rooftop cafe....Very classy...

We ordered fruit drinks and began to talk...

"You a football fan?" I asked.

''Actually,I'm not...I met him at a fund raiser...He was a little surprised that I didn't know who he was...but on the other hand..He was glad that I didn't..He said that way I wouldn't have any preconceived notions." she said laughing...

"I initially didn't want to get involved with him like that... ..An Athlete and a guy who was about three years my junior at that! He didn't seem to care and  he was persistant and pretty soon we were going out for drinks, then Lunch, then dinner,then movies when he was in town.....He let me take him to a play and to an Art Exhibit...It wasn't long after that that I wound up spending the night with him...

Again...I didn't want to....I didn't mean to be any more than a casual acquaintence but by then, it was already way too late...

He was full of compliments....and maybe we had a little too much wine...but the next thing I know..my clothes were off and I was in his big strong arms kissing him.."she said.

""Oh My god Glenda, you are sexier than I imagined..." he said, grinning and staring at me salaciously...

  I looked at him and smiled....

"And you certainly are packing yourself..."I said staring at his raging erection..."Oh My goodness...Look at that thing.." I marveled...

 I knelt down and began to gently fondle his engorged penis....His head fell back and he moaned....

"Awwwwwww sweet baby...Yesssssssssssssssss..."he moaned

"I shouldn't be here...I shouldn't even be talking to you...I'm an Assistant District Attorney."I said.

"And I'm on the Philadelphia Eagles..I'm not on the field right now and you aint in court,This is about me and you."he said.

  I took all of him in my mouth and began to move my head back and forth...He leaned backward and moaned silently...I had never been this free the first time I was with a man."she told me..

"Yesssssssssssssssssssssss..." he moaned..."Glenda..I had no idea...Ohhhhhh my goodness!" he said.

"I had no idea you had so much in your pants..."I said as she continued licking and sucking...making slurping sounds.....After about an hour of this ,he could take no more...

"Awwwwww, Awwwwwww lawd."he moaned...

"Oh My God,I don't believe I'm doing this..."she said...

"Ouuuuuu..Come here girl." He said  and pulled me to him and kissed me passionately... I  was  surprisingly was full of passion...It was as if I had wanted to unleash all of my

love on a man for so long..I giggled...and returned his passion, kissing him as though he was the last man left on earth!

"It's been a long time since a man called me "girl..." ouuuuuu."I said shyly......between passionate kisses....

He softly parted my legs and entered me  as slow as he could....He said he  had wondered what sex would be like with me...from the time he first laid eyes on me at that fund raiser , Which was not surprising..A lot of men wondered what it was like to sleep with me..Some would never know. I had said that it was inappropriate at first,but here I was with him, in his home,in his bedroom..

  I moaned softly as the massive bed began to squeak and slam against the wall...
''Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...""Ohhh baby, give it to meeeeee....ummmmmmph...Ouuuuuuuuuuu..I needed this...I needed this...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh lawddddd ,just put it in me...ohhhhhhhhh"she moaned.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Glenda...Glenda  baby......ouuuuuuuuuu, more, more... ohhhhhh..."he moaned as he moved in and out of her... He said he had always admired my fine brown frame....

"I'm ADA Brown to you.....ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Good lawd, call me whatever you want....ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu sweet sweet mannn,ohhhhhhhhhhhh my godddddddddddd..ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....put it on meeeee,WHoaaaaaaaaaa!"I moaned.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh gooooddddddd lawdd it's soooo goood...ohhhhhhh..ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sweeeeet baby yessssssssssssssss."he cried ...out!!"Morrre...Morreee....morrre...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.." I yelled out...

"Kevin,I feel like I've known you forever...I can't believe I'm being so candid about my sex life with you.." she said as she continued...

"We made sweet yet intense love for five  or six hours...with no sign of stopping...The bed squeaked something crazy....the headboard slammed violently against the wall..The legs of the bed creaked...I know my neighbors were wondering what was going on in my house...

  Another half hour and I began to climax  and shake violently ...Tears began to run down my face like a river and I continued kissing Brad Garrison passionately until he collapsed on top of me coming violently himself and pumping his fists in the air...and spreading his arms like an airplane...His toes curling.....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..." I squealed as I climaxed over and over again.....Slapping him in the face....I had never felt so good!

  I cuddled up into his arms and nestled my head on his shoulders and drifted off to sleep..I hadn't felt this good in ages...I actually went to sleep with a smile on my face...I was actually still shaking and climaxing a bit.

"Ohhhhh,ouuu." He said I moaned in my sleep....."Sweet...sweet man...I'm still coming...ohhhhhhhh what have you done to me???Ohhhhhhhhhhh my goodness...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuu.."he said I murmured before drifting off! He found that so humorous...
The next morning, I woke up and stared into Brad Garrison's giggling face...

"Oh My God...What did I do?"I asked him.

"What didn't you do?" he asked..

"Oh ...I shouldn't be here...It was the wine... I shouldn't be here...I've never done something like this before..Oh My God!!! I'm an ADA...and I slept with you."she said.

"Glenda,You did more than sleep , you did some things to me last night that wasn't influenced by no wine girl..And you called out the names of a couple of people in the bible.."he said.

  I giggled...

"I like it when you call me girl, Big Daddy..." I said seductively...and gave him a sloppy ,wet kiss....He kissed me again.....softlty...

"Oh My God...Do we have time to do it again? I'm still horny.." he asked, breathing heavily...

"Oh Hush up smarty.." I said.

He  smiled sheepishly....

I was his girlfriend, his lover from that day forward..." she said.

"Did he take you places?" I asked.

''Oh yes...I traveled with him and the team...When I could..During the off season, We went to Punta Cana, Jamaica, Paris once...For three years it was good, real good...Then he got injured..if you remember...."she said.

"Yeah..He missed a season....Torn ACL..."I said.

"That's when Cal started hanging around...Called himself a Freelance Trainer, but all he was a wanna be, a wash out as a football player and a hanger on....a jock sniffer..I hated Cal..."she said.

"I'm trying to find him...I represent Brad's Sober Living Assistant...If this goes down that Brad overdosed on his watch, His credibility goes down the toilet..."I said.

She busted out laughing...

"You're working for Lymon Lemon? Oh My God...Is that what he is now..A Sober Living Assistant??Oh My God!" she laughed even more..

"He used to be a Doctor..."I said.

"Oh I know...I prosecuted him....He was coming to the hospital high off Heroin...He lost his license to practice...He's lucky he didn't go to jail.." she said.

"Tell me about Calvin Butts."I said.

"Like I said...He was a wanna be..Wanted to be a Pro-Football player...wasn't good enough...So he remade himself into a trainer...The Eagles staff never hired him ...Brad was paying him under the table...I told him Calvin was bad news...It was Calvin that got him strung out first on Oxi-Cotin, then eventually Percocet and Heroin...Calvin was bad news and he hung around with two very bad guys..
A goon named Lojack Stevens and his boss, Cash Edwards...Just before I left the District Attorney's office..We were looking into Cash's operation..." she said.

"Cash deals weed and Heroin."I said.

"He does...He's not on the street, his clients are Athletes, Rappers, Actors, some politicians...He works out of the Low End Theory Bar..Lojack is his driver bodyguard....I told Brad to leave them both alone..To leave Calvin Butts alone..but he wouldn't...I broke up with him because he wouldn't leave the drugs alone...." she said.

"He told me that he loved me and he went through Rehab.....Got himself clean and back with the Eagles..But by now I had quit the DA's Office and was working here and I just recently bought a house..Three nights before he died he came to visit me...Told me that I was right about Cal all along and that he had messed up again...I didn't know what he meant by that,I figured he was back on drugs..I told him to get away from Cal...He said he wanted to, but he needed my help..He said he had something on Cal and Lojack and Cash that would put them all away..."she said.

''What?" I asked.

"I don't know...He has a wall safe....It's in the basement of that house he was renting...He told me that nobody knew about it.." she said.

"My wife is the Realtor ,whose company owns that house...I can get a key and go inside...It's in the basement you say?" I said.

"That's what Brad Said...Wait a minute? Your wife is the Realtor whose company owns that house...Bonita Foxworth?? Sepia Morris? "she asked.

"Sepia Morris is my wife.."I said.

"Oh My Goodness..Small World..Your wife sold me my house...We closed the deal a few days ago..!!!"she said.

"Oh My God...She was talking about you..She told me she had just made a sale" I exclaimed..

"So you can get a key to that house right?"asked Glenda..

"Already have it...I was there yesterday...I had a run in with Mr. Lojack...That's how I found a bunch of papers and a phone with your number in it.."I said.

"You had a run in with Lojack? Hmmm you don't look like you did." she said.

"I imagine he's just getting out of the hospital..."I said...

She laughed....


"Oh My.." She laughed..

"You know...I was once associated with this company...The Harris Group." I said.

"You were?" she said.

"Yes...I used to be the Editor and Chief of a magazine they owned called HYPE " I said.

"Really? You?  I used to read that magazine...I had a subscription..." she said..

"The Harris Group owned it...They were going to fire me and unload it...They uh kind of thought that I was uh let's say a bit too leisurely...Only I beat them to the punch...I had been stockpiling some cash for awhile....and had made some sound investments that had paid off...I put together a group that consisted of my good friends, Chris Thompson ,Chess and Donald Smooth, who owned apartments,condos and lofts as well as two major shopping centers and other businesses in our community....My wife, Sepia and her partner Bonita Foxworth ..who own a very successful real estate business and my good friend and my wife's cousin, Clerow, who with his partner ,Owen Todd owns Storage space ,Apartments,Lofts and Condos that they manage...

Our little investment group bought Hype Magazine from The Harris Group...Lock stock and barrel.


I then turned it into Morris Communications and Investigations...We now have several magazines..a satellite radio station, a cable TV station, a music streaming service, and produced several websites and podcasts...


As we speak..I am in negotiations to buy Meek Rollins's recording studio....."I said.

"Oh wow..You are quite the Entrepeneur.." she said..."So where does the Private Investigator part come in?" She asked..

"Oh that...Something I did on the side...I was in N.C.I.S. when I was in the Marines.."I said.


She smiled..

"You are just full of surprises Mr. Kevin..." she said.

"Yeah...I went to college through the Military,got a Bachelors Degree in Communications, thus my interest in writing and editing...but I also was an NCIS investigator for several years...I got my P.I. license once out of the military and I hired six friends and bought spyware and computers and crime fighting equipment that would rival a modern police force and began my investigation agency..."I said.

"Wow..and in between you married my girl, Sepia.." she said.

"Yeah, put her through school...and helped her and Bonita,who is the wife of a close friend of mine start their Real Estate Business and they in turn were able to help me later on...Sepia and I have a daughter....She's 14 months old..."I said.

"WOWWWWWWW!  I like that....You two built together...I hope I find a man like you that I can build with....You got a business card Mr. Kevin?" she asked..Smiling....

"Yeah.."I said and handed her my card...


"An attorney can always use a good Investigator.." she said.

For awhile we both sat quietly....A cool breeze blew past us...

"If you're going back in that house..I suggest you not go alone..... Between me and you...I think Brad was murdered...He wanted to get away from Cal and his cronies...and they wanted to shut him up.. He told me that he had evidence of all of Cash's wrong doing and even proof of a murder  they were all involved in...He didn't want me to know specifics...he figured the less I knew the better, since I was no longer with the D.A.'s office...I don't know what he has...but he said it was in a Wall safe in the basement that nobody knew about...He was so high the last time I talked to him that I didn't know if he was telling the truth or not..Cash and Lojack aren't going to let him just send them to prison...They might be back in that house even now as we speak...Looking for whatever he left behind.."said Glenda...

"I got a man watching the house...He'd of called me if he noticed them coming back...See,I figured that I didn't find enough yesterday...and Lojack was already in the house when I got there...My guess is..He didn't find anything either.I'm going back there....In the basement eh?  Thank you and it was so nice talking to you...You've been more helpful than you can know."I said..

"Good Luck..Tell your wife I said Hello..And Kevin...Lets stay in touch.. I may throw some work your way. It certainly was nice to get to know you and talk to you...You have quite a story.."said Gloria.

"I will. It was nice talking to you too..Just watch your back here..These guys can be cut-throat!" I said.

"Thanks for the heads up....That goes without saying.." she said..

I smiled as I walked toward the elevator...I mused to myself. A Black woman, Co-chief counsel for the Harris Group...Corner Office with a view....That was a big step up for the Harris Group...I wished her luck...She seemed to be very nice, Very down to earth!
I liked her....She wasn't bad to look at either.

III-

Sepia and I had dinner that night.......

"You took Clerow and Owen Todd off of the house...?" she asked..

"Yeah...Cash probably feels that whatever Brad had on him...He took to the grave with him...If I had found something and turned it over to the police...He'd be in custody right now...Lojack didn't find anything...and he was in there before me...but Glenda told me that there is a wall safe in the basement,that nobody knows about..She said Brad told her that three nights before he died.."I said.

"Glenda Bryant?? You talked to her?   That's who I sold a house to...She used to be an ADA..Now she's co-chief counsel for the Harris Group, your old employers.."said Sepia..

"I know...I was in their new building today...Nice...."I said.

"She and Brad Garrison had a thing?" asked Sepia..

"She was his girlfriend for three and a half years....She broke up with him because he couldn't stay away from the heroin..."I said.

"Awwwww...She might have been the only person who could have kept him straight." said Sepia..

"Yeah....you're right....I've got to get back in that house..Find that safe...I'm taking Lockpick Johnson, Peeping Tom, Sean Jackson,Owen Todd and Clerow..."I said.

"Be careful baby." said Sepia, who gave me a warm sensuous kiss....

The kiss seemed to linger a little longer than most...Her body heat and her softness was arousing me ..

''Wow..after that,I almost don't feel like going." I said.

"I could keep you here if I really didn't want you to go you know."said Sepia ,giving me the serious side eye.

"No doubt you could...but you want to know how this story ends don't you?" I asked her..

"I do...I do..." she said smiling..
