“I got faith in you,” Gosling said.
“Oh, now you got faith in me? A few weeks ago you couldn’t stop reminding me about how I was going get locked up and all that shit.”
Gosling chuckled. “That was before you proved yourself.”
Jasmine sucked her teeth and playfully rolled her eyes.
“Seriously though, you’re a talent that is hard to find and hard to cultivate, and we really value you.”
Those words made Jasmine feel good because she liked being praised for things other than her good looks and her pussy.
“I’m serious,” Gosling added.
“Thank you,” Jasmine replied.
“But listen. Be smart, and be very careful out here. These guys are wolves, and you can’t take anything for granted.”
Jasmine gave Gosling a funny look. “You learn how to roll weed yet?”
“Fuck you,” Gosling jokingly shot back.
Jasmine walked up to Gosling and innocently began to massage his shoulders. “I’ll be smart. I know how to maneuver.”
Gosling liked the way Jasmine was massaging his shoulders. He felt his dick starting to rise, so he stood up from the love seat he was sitting on.
“Okay, so I got some work to do. I’m going to head in to the office. I’ll check in with you in, say, seventy-two hours.”
Jasmine rolled her eyes.
“What?”
“I just told you to give me a few days to formulate a plan, and then you tell me you’re going to check in with me in seventy-two hours? You don’t have to micromanage me.”
“Like I said, I’ll check in with you in seventy-two hours.”
Jasmine rolled her eyes once more.
“But call me if you need me.”
“Good-bye, Gosling.”
Gosling made his way toward the door, but he didn’t leave before asking Jasmine about Nico.
Jasmin
e told him that Nico had called her the day before just to check up on her and to ask her to visit BJ in the hospital.
“Did you go?”
“No, not yet. I’ll get over there probably today.”
Gosling was about to say something else, but Jasmine cut him off.
“Good-bye, Gosling!” And then she playfully pushed him toward the door.
“Okay, I’ll talk to you later. And, seriously, you be careful out there.”
“I will be.”
