Hey.. you okay?" Tyra asked the second I walked back in. I sat down and opened my water, "yeah.. I'm cool.." She shook her head a bit and then I took my food and stared eating. "Collect the staff when you are done.. we are about to leave.." my mentor said and I stood up and did as asked after finishing my sandwich. The day went by pretty slow but I was thankful that I was out of the office. I don't think I could take seeing Tawny flashing her ring around.. even though she wasn't doing it, it felt like that to me, like I was constantly reminded of what she lied to me about. She'd drop everything for me.. and now she is ready to sing forever with my sister. Screw them.. they deserve each other. Around 4 pm, Tyra drove me to my apartment and I was glad I wasn't going back to the office. All I needed was a whole bath and food and sleep."Hey.. do you have something to eat at your place for you? Or should we grab something before I drop you off.." "Don't worry.. my best friend cook
That cut so deep but I swallowed and looked at the laptop in front of me. I had work to concentrate on.. I fucken needed to concentrate and not think about who Tawny was with. I got up, poured myself a glass of water and came back to the table. This was going to be the longest night. But at least I wasn't going to have to deal with Nash anymore..Tuesday I dropped what I was doing at the office and went to school. Nash couldn't even look at me and I was okay with that. At least he didn't run to the papers to tell them I'm in love with my sister's fiance. That would be awful.. I avoided Luna and went to work. She was worried about me, for good reason, but I didn't wanna have to lie and tell her I'm okay. I was tired of lying. I got to the office and Tee looked at me, "in my office.. right now!" Fuck! What did I do now? I followed behind her like a lost puppy. We got inside her office and she closed the door locking it. Then turned to me, "what is the first thing that I told you
TAWNYWaiting.... How long is someone supposed to wait for someone they love and want, to finally decide that they want them too..? Is it Two months? Two years? Or five years?A lot of us have that question. Don't worry, me too...See, when it comes to my heart I've leant the hard way that if what I want and what someone elses wants doesn't go together in harmony, the other person might drop you without even a word... With everything that has went on for the past month.. I realized that how much you are willing to do nor take nor sacrifice to be with someone you truly love doesn't matter... what really matters is how they feel about you. I meant everything I said to Amora... I meant every word and the only thing I needed was for her to be fully on board or tell me she's at least working towards that because I knew we have a long way to go....Now tell me this.. if they were two different people, would you rather be with someone that you love wholeheartedly... or be with someone who
I got inside my car and decided to drive to my place. I had no idea what to do. My thoughts were racing and I knew that I couldn't go back to work, I was so distracted.The front door opened and I turned to it thinking I'm not even in the mood for Olivia's moods but was surprised to see my mom. "Mom?" "I came to see how... oh Godness Tawny what happened to your face? Look at your shirt, there's blood. What happened?" Fuck! I shrugged, "it's nothing mom..." She put her bag on the couch and went to the kitchen, then I heard the kettle boiling, "it's nothing? You look like you were in a fight. Good thing I came.." I wiped my face and my bottom lip was in pain, I might have bit myself when that idiot hit me. "I'm fine mom. There was no need to come all this way.. did you drive or did you ask Bab'Khumalo to take you..?" "I drove... for a good reason apparently.. come here.." I got up and went to the kitchen, I knew fighting her was going to be useless. When I got there she had a t
I didn't say anything because I knew they'd gang up on me. The drive back home was so short. My mind was busy again, which would explain why I didn't feel the trip. Coz now I was thinking about what Olivia said. I sighed and took my phone out then texted my fiance, Hey babe.. I hope you're good. Can we do that dinner tomorrow. I had a long day today..She quickly responded. I miss you.. just know that okay.. I'll text you the time tomorrow, you can be a gentle woman and fetch me at my place😎. I can't wait to see you and taste you😋😝😘.. I love you my soon to be wife😍..I was smiling like an idiot when I read that. Paris was truly something else. I love you too Maa❤Then I lifted my head up when the car turned and parked at my gate. I was so shocked to see Amora standing there inside my gate. Olivia cleared her throat and drove in. "What's Amora doing here..." It was quiet. "I'll ask again. What's Amora doing here.." "I texted her. I was a bit worried about you and thought ma
AMORA Immediately when I heard Luna talking to Tee on the phone, I knew she fucked up. Tee was protective of me and with that information she was going to kill Nash. So even in the condition I was in, I didn't want her killing him. Especially since I was feeling guilty for hurting him... Like my gut told me, seconds after we arrived at Nash's place, Tee got there and she beat him. Luna and I did all we could to stop her, even my stupid ex tried to blackmail her about the media, I was shocked when she didn't care but then again, it wasn't that shocking because she said she'd do anything for me... turned out she meant even risking her rugby career. I felt like shit when I had to stop her and tell her to leave. She was doing more damage that she intended. As much as she was pissed about what happened, I've hurt Nash and I somehow felt guilty that she was part of the reason I broke up with him.. even he knew I loved Tawny more than I did him. The look on her face killed me. Worse when
The envelope Olivia gave me turned out to be a Doctor's note, so I was thankful I didn't have to limp out again to go get it from a doctor. I entered work today trying so hard not to limp. Tyra was in her office. I opened the door, "boss..." The older woman quickly got up and came to give me a hug, "heeeey... I talked to Tee.. how are you.. what happened... I missed your small self walking around and asking loads of questions.." Tee told her? Then she asks what happened? She told her what? "Hey.. I'm okay Boss. Just got injured nothing much.." "I know moving is a lot or adjusting to a new place. Just don't break yourself please.." My phone vibrated and I looked at it. It was a text from my sister. Hey, I hope you're good. When last did you talk to Tawny.. is she in her office? Why was she asking me that..? Weren't they planning their wedding. And she texts me after I don't know how long and the only thing she asks about is Tawny? Didn't I matter..I looked at Tyra, "where's T
TAWNYFive days in and I was somehow still enjoying the view. The helicopter ride right above The Victoria Falls made my mind feel at ease. I felt light when I was there and seeing that water was just soothing and refreshing. After what I walked in on I took a flight straight to Zambia planning on clearing my mind, and oh God it was a great idea, because not only did I manage to clear my mind but I also managed to reflect back on the last 8 to 9 months. Being there made me realize how amazing my life was when it came to my career but how chaotic it was when it was about my love life. This right at this moment was a bit fuzzy and I was beating myself for what I did and didn't do. I reflected on my friendship that turned to relationship that turned back to friendship which now turned to nothing with Amora. I hated how I didn't give the girl a chance to figure herself out without rushing her. I felt like I was selfish to her for just expecting her to come to terms with us regardless o
