      Chapter 1:

      Jamaal awoke to the screams of the alarm clock, and rolled over to see one of the most disturbing sights one can wake up to, a clock reading 4 am.  He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and stumbled out of bed.  He could hear Shaniqua already in the shower.  He bounced his way into the kitchen and began making her breakfast.  She always started the day with a protein smoothie, a spinach and egg white omelette, and a bowl of fruit.  He finished preparing breakfast just as she was drying off in the bathroom.  She came out into the kitchen wearing nothing but a lacey thong, her muscular frame still glistening from the shower.  He looked her over and glanced at his watch.  She had been busy over the past year, and it had been a while since they had the maritals, so he was hoping he could seduce some morning sex out of her.  As she was filling her glass with milk he walked over behind her, wrapped his arms around her tightly, tenderly kissed her neck gently, and whispered You look incredible this morning.  She turned around, kissed him on the lips, and walked over to the table to eat her breakfast.  He joined her, and ate his own omelette feeling pretty certain that getting some morning booty was not going to happen.  After she ate she disappeared into the bedroom, and returned five minutes later ready to go.

      Shaniqua was fitness model that also did work on action films.  Today she was flying to Estonia to shoot the new Antoine Schwartzengruben movie.  They walked out the door towards her clean and shiny 64 Impala sitting in the driveway.  She was dressed in a Victoria Secret sweatsuit with Juicy on the ass of the pants.  He walked a couple paces behind her, partly because she was a fast walker, but mostly because he enjoyed the view. Juicy, you’re goddamn right juicy he thought to himself. They got in the car and Jamaal fired up the engine.  It was a short 15 minute drive to O’Hare International Airport.  The one perk of such an early flight is that it is too fucking early for traffic.  He pulled up to departures, got out, and helped her grab her bags.

      I love you babe, and I’ll miss you he said as he kissed her goodbye.

      Love you too, honey. She whispered as she enjoyed their last embrace for two months.

      As Jamaal watched her walk away until she receded from view, letting his eyes linger on that big beautiful booty.  It was the last he would get to admire it for two months.  He got back into the car, and started on the drive back home.  Traffic was starting to thicken, but was not bad yet.  Within the hour it would look like a parking lot.  He thought about the poor suckers stuck in it on their way to work.  He was one of those suckers until he left his job as an accountant with a major firm in downtown Chicago last month.  They were trying to have a baby, and they decided it would be best to have a stay at home parent. At least that is what Shaniqua said.  Jamaal was pretty certain she just liked turning him into a housewife.  He was not doctor, but he was pretty sure you had to have sex to have a baby.  Jamaal wasn’t complaining about leaving his job though, he hated that job.  On the flip side he did get extremely bored, especially because Shaniqua was gone alot on photo and movie shoots.  Even when she was home she was generally tired, and just wanted to relax. As he drove he wondered what he should do today. Normally he would assist Shaniqua with her workouts, cook her meals, and make some calls to help her book photo shoots, but now he had two months of free time.  It almost made him miss his job at the firm, almost.  He did know one thing for sure, and that is that he was going the fuck back to bed as soon as he got home.

      In another part of town Brenda was living out a vastly different day.  At 4 am she was just getting back home from one of the biggest deals of her life.  She had met with the Colombians and negotiated a multi million dollar deal.  She stayed until all of the product had made it safely into the warehouse and the process of getting it ready for distribution was underway.  She enjoyed watching the process, but she knew she had to go.  Everything was on autopilot now, and it was time to get some sleep anyway.  She was going to celebrate tonight.

      She woke up 6 hours later feeling refreshed and energized.  Nothing made her happier than a smooth deal.  She got up, ate a quick breakfast, and then got dressed.  She put on an Armani pantsuit with some six inch heels, and a pearl necklace.  She checked herself in the mirror, and feeling sexy she headed for the door.  The team was gathering at the house to celebrate the deal, and she wanted a new look for tonight.  She walked out of her house, and knocked on the door two houses down.Get your shit Stephen, we are going shopping.  She said to the man that opened the door.

      Stephen didn’t say anything, but he slipped on his J Crew boat shoes that matched perfectly with
