woulda thought Jason would be cheating, though . . . and with some skeezer; that’s more like Travis.”
    Travis Thorn was Jason’s best friend and co-worker. He took womanizing to a whole nother level and often criticized Jason about his relationship with Yaya. It was one of the many reasons that she and Travis didn’t get along. He often commented about the six-year age difference between Yaya and Jason, claiming that Yaya was a young girl and didn’t know how to handle a real relationship.
    â€œI don’t know what the hell he was thinking,” Yaya told her.
    â€œObviously, he wasn’t thinking.” Taryn sighed. “I’m sorry, Yaya. But don’t worry, girl, life goes on, and believe me, it’s about to get better for us. Have you talked to Q ?”
    â€œHe’s caught up in his own little drama, girl. I tried to call and talk to him about Jason and he brushed me off.”
    â€œWhat? Q brushed you off? Now, that’s a first. What kind of drama does he have going on?”
    â€œSome chick named Paige, I don’t know.” Her cell began ringing. She looked at it and saw that it was Monya. “Hey, what’s going on?”
    â€œNothing, really. I took the shoes back to him. He’s really pissed, Yaya. Where are you?”
    â€œPicked Taryn up and now taking her home—what did he say?”
    â€œI’ll meet you at Taryn’s.”
    Monya’s truck was parked in front of Taryn’s townhouse when they arrived.
    â€œWhat’s up, T ?” Monya gave Taryn a big hug. “You have a good trip?”
    â€œHey, Monya, you know I did—fine dining, fine men, fat paycheck and all expenses paid—you know it don’t get any better than that!”
    They all laughed as they carried the luggage inside.
    â€œHome, sweet home.” Taryn flopped down on her large, plush sofa. “Yaya told me about y’all catching the girl driving her car last night. That’s wild.”
    â€œWild ain’t the word,” Monya said, “I wouldn’t have believed it if I ain’t see it for myself. Ol’ girl was rolling in the Lex like it was hers.”
    â€œI’m proud of you, though, Yaya. A few months ago, you woulda went off on Jason, cutting tires, busting windows . . . something. You know that temper of yours is—”
    â€œOh, she did some damage. Not as much as I thought she would’ve done, but she got her point across. He was pissed about his shoes. The police were still there when I got there.”
    â€œDamage? Shoes? Police?” Taryn sat up. “Oh, hold on, you ain’t say nothing about any of that, Qianna Westbrooke!”
    â€œI figured she didn’t since that wasn’t the first thing you asked when you got out the car.” Monya giggled and went on to tell the complete story.
    Yaya rolled her eyes at her as she talked.
    â€œWell, that explains the raggedy look you’re rocking today. Oh, my goodness, Yaya, I know you ain’t chance going to jail, when you know you had to pick me up from the airport.”
    â€œI know you were pissed after you had to wait over thirty minutes for her to get there,” Monya continued.
    â€œYaya!” Taryn gasped.
    â€œMonya, your ass can’t hold water,” Yaya hissed.
    Monya was laughing so hard that tears were streaming down her face.
    â€œ T , shut up. Your flight was delayed anyway. And I wasn’t going to jail.”
    â€œI don’t know, Yaya, I got a feeling Jason was about to send the cops to your house if I wouldn’ta pulled up when I did.”
    â€œJason better be glad I didn’t call the cops on him about my car.” Yaya folded her arms and sat on the barstool.
    â€œHe didn’t even know the girl had your car, Yaya,” Monya told her.
    â€œWhat?” Yaya and Taryn said at the same time.
    â€œYep, at least not until he got a call from
