Missed Appointment

 My wife Sepia was standing outside of some new houses she and her partner, Bonita had just sold to five new clients, representing three homes on the block..

"I'm sooo happy for you guys....Your first homes....Wowwwww. I remember how that felt..when I loved in West Orange, New Jersey, I lived in an apartment all my life...I didn't live in a house until I met and married Mr. Kevin here in Philadelphia." said Sepia wistfully...

''Awwwww ands look at you now , making everyone's dreams come true.."said Attorney Beatrice "Bee Bee" Evans, soon to be Mrs. Beatrice Jones...

Her husband to be ,Attorney Keith Jones had just signed her name to the lease and they were hugging each other...They were giddy because they were getting married in a few weeks as were their friends, fellow attorneys and soon to be next door neighbors, 

Attorney Sofia Garcia

and Attorney Khalil Ahmed...

Both couples stood giggling and watching as Clerow and Owen Todd and a team of movers..

Moved a lot of their furniture and belongings into their new homes...

Investigator, Jade Lee pulled up...

"Sorry I'm late..." she said..

Her things had already been moved into her new home, a few doors down from them...She was already moving in..

"I can't wait until you guys move in..." she said.

"It'll be soon... Bee Bee and I will be staying at our mother's house the week before the wedding." said Sofia.

"And the guys will be staying at the apartment until the wedding..Then Mr. Clerow and Mr. Todd will move them and the rest of their things in.."said Bee Bee.

"Yeah, that's it.."said Keith Jones..

'I can't believe this all fell into place sooo fast." said Kahlil..

"You guys are sooo organized...but I guess being Attorneys...You have to be.." said Sepia.

Her business partner, Bonita Foxworth drove up..

"Heyyyy guys...I see you are all getting moved in...It's going to be weddin season around here... I am so excited for all of you...I just helped Gary move his things into Ms. Yvette's house...I just love all this togetherness.." she said..

"Yes..we are very excited.." said Bee Bee looking at her watch..

''We'd better excitedly get to work ,so we'll have money to pay for all this.." joked Keith Jones..

"He's right...We'll be by this afternoon after work.."said Sofia..

"Yeah..Thanks for everything Ms. Sepia, Ms. Bonita." said Kahlil as the four young attorneys piled into their cars and pulled off..

"I'd better be pulling off myself.. I'll drop my apartment keys off at your office tonight after work."said Jade as she got in her car..

"Bye Guys!" said Bonita, watching as they drove off... "They are so cute and so happy..."sighed Bonita..

"Did you hear from Ronnie Moore?  I've called his home and his job and his cell phone all weekend..This is two appointments he's missed.." said Sepia.

"Nooooooo. You know, I stopped by his job yesterday....They said he hasn't worked in a week and hasn't called in...They said that's not like him, he never misses a day at that gym...The women love him..He's everybody's favorite trainer..He did leave a deposit on the property he wanted two weeks ago and Clerow and Owen stopped by with the Uhaul trucks to move his stuff, but they got no answer...His landlord called the room and nobody answered...she let them in and the bed was unmade and there was dishes in the sink and the place looked like he'd just left it."said Bonita.

"I almost feel like asking Kevin to look in to this...but I'd hate to waste his time..He's been working so hard this week."said Sepia.

II-

My wife was correct...I had been working hard this week, overseeing my radio stations and my television stations and their streaming contracts with area business..The revenue my company received from that kept us afloat...

My print media sales were down just a tad bit...but our online news and magazine services were holding steady...

I had just come out of a meeting with Sean Jackson, my chief of staff, his wife Sheila Jackson, my second in command and other senior staff members...

As I walked down the hall...Harry Charles, my personal assistant walked up to me..

''Someone to see you boss..That sexy lawyer, Kayla Bennett...Is she married?" he asked, smiling sheepishly..

"Yes...AND SO ARE YOU!" I reminded him...

"Nothing wrong with asking..." he laughed..

I'm Kevin Morris...I run Morris Communications in this office.....We have Digital and Print newspapers and Magazines, Sattelite Radio and Television stations, a Recording studio and streaming services amongst other things...

When I'm not running this company....I moonlight as a Private Investigator...I help people, mostly attorneys now of days.....

Pretty little Kayla Bennett-St. Jacques, the cousin of famed attorneys Olivia Bennett-Alexander and Beverly West..

sat in my office...

''Heyyyyy Pretty girl....How are you doing?" I said..

"I'm fine Kevin....Are you particularly busy now of days?" asked Kayla shyly...

"I'm never too busy for you Kayla..what's on your mind?" I asked.

''Well I have a client...His name is Ronald Moore.." said Kayla..

"Ronnie Moore, the trainer at the gym?? I know him....He's buying a house...My wife is selling it to him." I said.

"THEN SHE'S SEEN HIM?  I was kind of worried.. He hired me to represent him in a civil case...I was supposed to meet with him last week before we went to court and he was a no show...a few days went by..I went to court and he still didn't show up...I called his home and his cell phone and I dropped by his job and nothing...He hasn't been seen in two weeks...  I dropped by Josie's, Stoleys, and Aqua Bar, all the places he hangs out and nothing...Nobody has seen hide nor hair from him....I was kind of worried, this isn't like him..."said Kayla.

"You did half my work for me....but I'll look into it.." I said.

Harry Charles came to the door..

''Kev, your wife is here!" he said.

''Send her in..." I said.

Sepia walked in...

"Hi Kayla..Givin my hubby some more work huh?" she asked..

"Well yeah, I was asking him to look up somebody....Maybe you've seen him...He said you were selling Ronnie Moore a house, did you see him?" asked Kayla..

Sepia's eyes got as large as saucers....She actually looked afraid..

"That's why I'm here..He didn't show up to make settlement last week...and Clerow and Owen Todd went to his apartment with the UHaul trucks to get his things last week and they got no answer...Bonita said she stopped by his job at the gym and they said he hadn't been to work in a week and hadn't called and that that wasn't like him at all..The last time we saw him was one night two weeks agao when he stopped by with the check for his deposit on the house..We cashed it...It was good.. He was supposed to meet with us this morning to get the keys to his place...but he was a no show...Bee Bee, Keith ,Kahlil, Sofia and Jade all stopped by , but no sign of Ronnie Moore..I was concerned , because we haven't seen or heard from him in two weeks.." said Sepia.

"Same here...He hired me to represent him in a civil suit...He never showed up to meet with me to go over the particulars...I called his home, his job, his cell phone and got nothing...I even stopped by his home..Something he's been trying to get me to do for years...and no answer...No lights on...Mail piling up...I stopped by his job three times..Nothing..He didn't show up to court and the suit was dropped for the time being...I just hope nothing bad or unforseen has happened to him...I can pay you."said Kayla.

"Nahhh...since we all know Ronnie Moore and he's kinda like a friend...I'll do this solid for you on the house.. but you young lady."I said pointing at my wife.. "You will pay me in other ways.."I said,laughing sheepishly...

"Ohhh my god, you are sooo nasty...Would you stoppp?" said Sepia..

"It's alright Sepia..My husband is much much worse..."laughed Kayla as she got up to leave...

"Thanks Kevin...you're a doll." said Kayla..

''Don't mention it."I said.

I have to admit...I didn't think anything bad had happened to Ronnie Moore..

He was a fixture at Josie's. we all liked him...

He would often regal Kool Kat and I with tales of his many sexual conquests...amidst many beers..

He was a very gregarious guy...a real comedian..

He kept Gus, the owner and head bartender laughing....

Honey Brown didn't find him amusing...but she was in a minority....

At the time, I figured Ronnie had met some chick and had gone on a bender, drinking, non-stop sex and passing out...Except that...He was very fastidous otherwise and about his business...Not like him to miss a court date...or the settlement date for his first house and not come to work and not call.. He had perfect attendance and often subbed for other people..

His dissapearence deserved some looking into, but at the time..I was certain it was nothing..Oh How wrong I was..

 

 III-

My first place was the gym... Where his boss told me..

"He's the most wanted man alive...His Realtors were by here, and his lawyer...now you.....It's going on three weeks now..We paid him and if you check his bank records...He hasn't bought anything or spent any money on anything...Not even gas.. I must admit...I was a little worried myself.. I called his house, his cell phone and even dropped by...No answer and not a light on in his house...I don't know what to tell you...This is not like Ronnie at all..When he left out of here three weeks ago..He was upbeat..He was leaving a deposit on his house...He talked about having a big house warming party for the whole staff and everything...and he said...I'll see you tomorrow..just like he did every night when he left..."said his supervisor..

''Small world..One of his realtors is my wife and his attorney is my client, a friend of mine...both of them were concerned..He left off his deposit for the house, but never showed up for final settlement or to pick up his keys..And he missed two court dates...He had a civil suit against somebody.."I said.

"He had a suit against the Cyclops Insurance Agency...It was a lightweight suit....No biggie..but that's all I know." she said.

"Thank you....Here is my card...If you hear from him or hear anything...would you give me a call?" I asked.

"Sure and you let me know okay?" she said..

It was starting to get dark... Lockpick Johnson and I went to his apartment complex...Lockpick let me inside..

I looked around...I turned the lights on... bed was unmade...

a pair of blue lace panties lie on his bed... two loaded condoms were in the trash can...I took them and put them in an air tight plastic bag.. I took the panties too and did the same.. I looked around..

The sink was full of dishes...unwashed dishes... and the mail outside was from three weeks ago to the present..just piling up...I was wearing latex gloves, so I collected it and put it on the kitchen table.. 

On the kitchen table was a crumpled up bag of corn chips and a half drank can of soda.....

I checked his landline phone...most of the calls were from his job and Kayla....but about ten were from a woman named Karima Banks...I had no idea who she might be...but I copied the number in my phone. There were a number of calls from Sepia and Bonita.. There was one call from Cyclops Insurance...but nothing else...

To my surprise....His car was sitting in front of his house... The door was unlocked and his keys were on the front seat....

THIS WAS NOT A GOOD SIGN!

I saw his cell phone on the back seat...

I went through it...

There were calls from His job at the Gym, Calls from Sepia and Bonita, Calls from Kayla, several calls from Cyclops Insurance and even more calls from Karima Banks. All unanswered!

I looked confused...

Lockpick Johnson looked at me..

"Kev do you...do you think this guy might be dead?" he asked..

"I uh hate to say this L.J.  but I can't see how he can't be!"  I said.

IV-

When I got home, Sepia was still up...

"Now this is the time I expected you to be home.." she smiled..  "You Hungry?" she asked..

I pulled her to me...

"I am horny." I said..

She laughed...

"I said Hungry horn dog!.."

We kissed passionately....

"Kimmie is sleeping...So don't wake her.." she said..

I stared at Sepia....

We kissed passionately....

"Let's go in the room and lock the door..." she said..

"That's a good idea.." I whispered in between hot smouldering kisses...

"That's a very good idea.." she whispered...

Sepia unzipped my trousers and softly caressed my engorged and erect penis..

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh myyyyyy Kevin.... I need to take care of that..." she whispered softly in my ears...

"Yesssss..You do"I agreed...and slipped her slip dress up over her head....She unzipperd my trousers and fondled me gently....

"You are soooo nasty." she laughed.. "It doesn't make any sense...you being this huge and this hard..but I have to uh PAY you for the work you're doing for me."she added...laughing..

I followed Sepia up the stairs to our bedroom......I didn't want to tell her my suspicions just yet, that Ronnie Moore just might be dead...I still had more investigating to do..

We embraced in a passionate kiss once more...

"Ummmmmmmmmm, I started not to wait up...but I am soooo glad I did.." she said.

"I'm glad you did too.." I moaned..

"You are soooo nasttty! Look at you...ouuuuuuu my goodness...so hard, so big...Ummmmm!" she replied..

I lifted up her slip dress, slipped her panties down and off and began humping her across the bed...

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh husband,  get fully undressed ,so we can be comfortable.."she said...

I didn't want to stop...but I did..and we fully undressed.....

I lifted Sepia up and began long stroking her....She was beyond soft, very wet and smelled very good, almost baby soft...I was delirious with lust...

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu husband...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"she moaned as I stroked and thrusted into her mightily...

A Good TWO HOURS seemed to just evaporate....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Kevinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"said Sepia, who's entire body was shaking...She was having an intense orgasm....I could tell...Tears were flowing from her eyes and she was holding on to me for dear life...

I laid her across our bed.....I began to move inside of her slower and slower....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh girrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrl...I'm losing my mind.,.."I moaned..

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"she cooed softly...

A Good EIGHT TO NINE HOURS went by.....Neither one of us could seem to get enough of each other...

Our bed was squeaking out of control and our headboard slammed against the wall...

Sepia was once again having an intense orgasm...Shaking, trembling..Head turning from side to side, tears flowing from her eyes....

''Oh my god..oh my god...oh my godddddddddddddddd, ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuweeeeeeeee!" she squealed....as she positioned herself on top of me and rode me  hard and fast..

Finally, I began to cum and cum so hard....my body was trembling and shaking....

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"I yelled out....

"SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH DON'T WAKE THE BABY!" she moaned...

 ''You good baby?" she asked..

"Always" I said.

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.." I moaned...

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.." she moaned..

I held her in my arms...We dozed off to a deep relaxing sleep..

I  thought of what Lockpick Johnson asked me...

"Kev do you...do you think this guy might be dead?" he asked.. 

 "I uh hate to say this L.J. but I can't see how he can't be!" I said.
