When Love just happens - S01 E80

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 80

When Jeffery was done typing the message, he showed it to Jane, who embellished it with her own words, before clicking on the send button.

“Baby, are you sure about this?” Jeffery asked in confusion. The Jane standing before him, looked so strange, he could barely recognize her. She had some sort of fire burning in her eyes.

“Yes, I am. Now we are going to wait for her to reply”

A minute after Jane sent the message, Lauretha called his phone.

“Hello Lauretha” Jeffery answered, trying to sound natural.

“Jeffery are you being serious? Or is this some sort of a trick, just so you could see your son?”

“Lauretha, I thought about all you have been saying, I missed out on this boy’s life for thirteen whole years, I wouldn’t want to miss out on the rest. Besides I just found out Jane, can’t give me children, so I’m going to lose on both ends if I choose to marry Jane” Jane gave Jeffery a thumbs up, for his last sentence, the phone was on speaker, so she could hear Lauretha as well.

“Hmmmmm, so I’m now your back up plan? Well I’m sorry I refuse to be a back up plan. I think you should go marry your Jane, after all weren’t you the one professing your undying love for her?”

“Come on Lauretha, I’m sorry. Let’s not make this any difficult than it already is. Please it wasn’t easy for me to leave Jane, and I would really love if we could build something together”

“Not only am I your plan B, but I’m also your rebound chick?” Lauretha laughed on the other side of the phone. “See Jeffery, I refuse to be you or anyone’s rebound chick” with that said, Lauretha ended the call.

“What now?” Jeffery looked at Jane who had suddenly become a master planner.

“We will wait for her call, and if she doesn’t call back, you will pay her a visit and convince her to go on a date with you”

“I don’t know why, but I think I’m liking the game player Jane, the bossy Jane” Jeffery said smiling.

“Well, that’s a good thing. Because this Jane would definitely be coming out to play, from time to time”

Jeffery kissed softly, and then gently laid her on the bed as he explored her mouth with his tongue. As they kissed, Jeffery’s phone rang, it was Lauretha calling.

“Hello Lauretha?”

“I will agree to marry you on one condition”

“What?”

“You will make a video of you breaking up with Jane, and send it to me”

Jeffery was silent for a while, and then Jane gave him a sign to say yes.

“Lauretha, this is a difficult thing, why don’t you ask for something else?”

“Do you want to see your son or not?”

“I do”

“Good, now breakup with Jane and send me a video” Lauretha ended the call.

“How am I supposed to do something like that?” Jeffery looked at Jane who was already on her feet thinking.

“We are going to give her what she wants, a video of you breaking up with me”

“Have you thought about what she could do with the video? She could send it to the press”

“If she does that, we will find a way around it. But this is our only chance of getting close to that boy, and finding out if he is truly your son”

“Baby, I’m not sure about this”

Jane took Jeffery’s iPhone, opened it’s camera, and positioned it on the air conditioner in the room, so the camera was facing them.

“Now get up and breakup with me” Jane commanded.

Jeffery got up and did as Jane told him, but after they were done, they watched the video and it didn’t look convincing. So they had to try again, and again and again, they kept trying, and rehearsing their lines for the next two hours, until they got it perfect the tenth time; Jeffery looked so cold hearted in the video, while Jane knelt on the floor crying, begging Jeffery not to leave her.

Jeffery edited the video, and as he was about send it to Lauretha, Jane stopped him. “Let’s send it first thing tomorrow morning, so it would look like, it was really a hard decision for you to make”

“You know you should consider going into acting, where on earth did those tears come from?” Jeffery asked Jane who was beaming with pride.

“You weren’t bad yourself, for a minute I thought you were actually breaking up with me for real”

The next morning, they sent the video to Lauretha, and waited patiently for her to call. As they were preparing to leave the beach house, Lauretha called Jeffery.

“Jeffery, you must be really desperate to see your son”

“Lauretha, you have what you want. It was really difficult for me to do this to Jane, she didn’t deserve this”

“If you keep praising her, then you might as well go back and be with her”

“I’m sorry”

“Good. Since you have gone to this extent, just to show how much you want to be with me and your son, I guess I can allow you to see him, but you must never mention anything about being his father, I still haven’t told him who his father is”

“Alright I won’t, I promise”

“Good, we will see you this evening by six then”

“Okay, I will book a reservation for us at sailors lounge”

“Alright, we will see you by then” Lauretha ended the call.

“We have a date to prepare for” Jane said to Jeffery as they walked out of the beach house.

“You are going to try, and make her believe, it’s her you really want to be with, and not me” Jane was adjusting Jeffery’s collars as she spoke. She helped him pick out a white shirt, and a pale blue jacket, and black pant trouser. He had on a nice pair of black shoes to go with it.

“And try to maintain eye contact with her at all times, so she doesn’t suspect any foul play, remember she is a private investigator, and can easily detect when something is wrong”

“What have you done to me Jane?” Jeffery asked smiling, as he was still surprised by her sudden boldness, and craftiness.

“She is standing right in front of you” Jane leaped, and kissed him. “Now go woe your woman”

“You are my woman” Jeffery kissed her neck.

“Fine, go woe the other woman”

Jane stood watching as Jeffery went into his car, and his driver drove him to the restaurant where he booked a reservation for himself and Lauretha.

Immediately they left, she left through the back door, to avoid getting seen by anyone, just in case Lauretha was crazy enough to send the video of Jeffery breaking up with her to anyone.

She already paid a huge some of money, to the manager of the restaurant, who in turn tipped the waitress that would be serving Jeffery, and Lauretha at the restaurant. Asking her to make sure, everything Lauretha’s son uses on the table is brought to her, including the spoon, fork, knife, and glass cup he uses in drinking water.
