Commentary: My favorite line in this chapter is the first one by Bill: Which is, “Who the fuck is she?” Lol. It's a deep aspect, and maybe something that I learned within the music world. But no matter how pretty the girl is, the body guard always takes a second look at whoever gets into the SUV. And they will never hesitate to ask.  “Who the fuck is she?” Haha

 See HOME? 1 to get caught up on the story.

Leaving the restaurant in downtown New Yorka, the group gets into two separate Black Sport Utility Vehicles to head to Miama, as per Abe's request. The drivers are suited. Abe gets into the SUV in the back, while Charles, Bill, and Charles’s assistant Orchid get in the front vehicle.

Bill looks at Charles as they get in the vehicle, as he notices Abe get in the back of the vehicle with a female. He caught good wind of her black hair and her orange-bottomed shoe.

Bill

“Who the fuck is she?”

Charles

“I’m not sure. Guess she is one of Abe’s friends.”     

Bill isn’t too fond of new people in their entourage as he has to ensure the safety of anybody who is physically in Charles’ circle. Especially after the hostage incident last year.

Bill

“Well, I’m going to ride with Abe. I don't know who she is. We have no time for any shit.”

He begins to close the door, and Charles holds it open.

Charles

“He is fine. You ride with me.”

They look at each other. Charles knows exactly why Bill is being over protective. Especially since the attacks. They still haven’t found all the people involved. Besides Gary and a few people of the Olympia Government.

Bill

“Chuck. I don’t like this. I don’t give a damn how fine that chick is. We can't cheat death too many times.”

Bill gets in the vehicle with Charles. Abe is in the back of a different SUV with Sisa. Still biting on her neck. He pulls away.

Abe

“Come to Miama with us...”

Sisa leans back and scratches her scalp.

Sisa

“I just met you. Why would I do something like that?”

Abe grabs her thigh again. Her soft spot.

Abe

“Just come.”

Sisa

“I don’t have money to blow like that, Abe. I know I said I’m an attorney. But school debt has me pounded. It's....”

Abe cuts her off.

Abe

“Do you have to work tomorrow?”

He caught her.

Sisa

“I do have my laptop in my car. Can I at least change before we go to the airport?”

Abe smiles at her.

Abe

“Just go get your bag, laptop, and other important things.”

She pulls a ticket out.

Sisa

“My car is right there with the Valet. I’ll just have to move it.”

Abe grabs the valet ticket out of her hand and opens the door to the luxurious Rover SUV.  He gets out, walks up to the Valet attendant. He whispers in his ear. Abe digs into his left pocket, pulls out some Olympia cash and discreetly puts it in the Valet Attendant’s hand. Making it look like a handshake.

Sisa watches. Looking at Abe’s matte rose gold watch. Symbolizing power, but not glam. She watches his every move.

Abe walks back into the car.  Looks at Sisa. He calls his dad on the phone. Charles picks up.

Abe

“We just need a few more minutes, Dad.”

As he hangs up the phone, the Valet Attendant comes to the window of the vehicle. Abe lets it down, and in comes a brown leather laptop bag and a car key. He hands both to Sisa.

Valet Attendant

“Thank you, Mr. Dalton. The car will be fine until you get back.”

Abe looks at Sisa. He calls his dad again.

Abe

“We are ready to roll.”

Charles speaks on the other end. Abe responds.

Abe

“Yes, she is coming with us.”

Abe grabs Sisa’s hand. As he gets off the phone with Charles, his phone rings again. It’s Telda. He wants to pick up. But he ignores the phone.

As the drivers pull off, Abe looks out the window, noticing the Olympian people, and being in New Yorka. He likes it, but he also misses the cleanliness of Paragon. The bio-luminescent trees, grass, and glow in the dark streets. He enjoys the drivers, but only in a way. He misses the pods in Paragon. The privacy of them. Especially after he just had to pay Valet to watch a car. In Paragon that isn’t an issue because people don’t use cars as much as in other countries.
