Kay's Obnoxious Mistress

Nancy walked out of her car, straight to Samantha's front door. She saw Samantha looking at her for help and immediately knew something was wrong.

Samantha smiled at Nancy and she smiled back. Nancy looked at the other stranger and asked Samantha.

"Who is our guest? Sammy.

Samantha didn't want to create a scene, so she wanted to give Rose the last chance to leave on her own.

"Oh, it's no one Nancy, she was just leaving" she said.

Rose stood her ground and didn't want to leave. Nancy looked at Rose and then back to Samantha.

"Samantha?I thought you said your guest was about leaving?

"She isn't my guest Nancy and yes, she is supposed to be on her way, but clearly she does not want to leave me alone"

Nancy turned to Rose.

"My Friend says you should leave. You have overstayed your welcome. That shouldn't be hard to do, is it?

Rose ignored Nancy and tried talking to Samantha again but Nancy stopped her with her hand.

"I said you should leave here this minute! Nancy yelled.

Samantha wished Nancy would bring her voice down, as she didn't want to attract the attention of neighbours and worst of all, she didn't want Allen to hear them yelling. Samantha didn't like the fact that Allen keeps seeing the bad side of her life. She turned to Nancy.

"Please bring your voice down Nancy. As for you Rose, the next time I see you close to my house, I promise to call the cops on you, now leave my house" she said.

Rose looked at Nancy and scoffed before facing Samantha.

"Let me tell you something Samantha or whatever it is you call yourself. Just let my man be, stay far away from him and do not accept him when he comes back to you. If you do accept him, you don't know what will be coming for you. I will show you why they call me the crazy ass bitch! Rose said before leaving Samantha's house.

Nancy looked at Samantha, waiting to hear an explanation of what just happened, but Samantha didn't want to tell Nancy until they were inside. She knew how Nancy would react if she told her while standing outside.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Samantha pulled Nancy by the hand, dragging her inside her living room. When she was sure that Nancy was settled in, she went back to the door to secure the lock. She walked back to Nancy and stood facing her.

"I know you have been waiting for an explanation about the lady you just saw"

"Ofcourse I need an explanation, Samantha. Tell me now, or I find out myself, make your choice"

"Calm down Nancy, I will tell you myself. Rose is the lady I caught Kay on bed with"

"What! Hold on Samantha, are you telling me that the lady we just saw now, was the one who slept with Kay when you two were still dating? What nerve! Who does she think she is! Nancy said, standing from where she sat, raging.

"Relax Nancy, we got her to leave, remember?

"You didn't get her to leave Samantha, I did. I can't believe you didn't tell me right away! I can't believe you let me speak quietly to the person who made life miserable for you. It's shocking how she shows up here out of nowhere. What did she want anyway? Nancy asked.

Telling Nancy that Kay showed up at her house was like adding fuel to fire, but Samantha had no choice but to tell her. She stalled, which made Nancy restless.

"I am still waiting for you to tell me what she wanted, Samantha"

"Look Nancy, Kay was here earlier. I didn't want you to flare up and attract attention, that was why I couldn't tell you in front of Rose"

"Rose? So that's her name. You mean Kay and his cheating partner both came here today? That's it, I am moving in here. I am so angry that they had the guts to show their stupid faces here. What the hell! How dare they! After all they made you go through?

Samantha was so excited to hear Nancy, talk about moving in with her. She has been waiting for this moment. She screamed.

"Oh my gosh! You are moving in? Really?

"Yes, I am moving in, for real this time. I just can't take the fact that those two showed up here because they know you live alone. The next time they show their faces here again, they won't have only you to face. They will have both of us to contend with"

"Oh Nancy! I can't believe you will be moving in after all these years. I have practically begged you like my life depended on it but you refused to move in. You don't know how excited I am! I guess Kay and Rose showing up is a blessing in disguise for me" she said, grinning from ear to ear.

Samantha walked to Nancy, took her by the arm and led her to take a seat.

"Have a seat Nancy. Don't let Kay and Rose put you in a shitty mood today. I have gist for you"

Nancy looked at Doloris to see her blushing.

"Wait a minute, this 'gist' you want to tell me, is it about a man? Is it? Nancy asked, sounding excited.

"Maybe?

"What do you mean maybe, Samantha? It's either about a man or it isn't! So tell me quickly"

"Okay fine, it's about a man"

Nancy screamed.

"Oh my! Who is he? is he tall? Is he handsome? What does he look like, tell me already!

"So many questions Nancy. One question at a time, okay?

"Okay, question number one, who is he?

"He is my next door neighbour" Samantha replied.

"What! You have a new neighbour?

"Yes I do, regrettably"

"Regrettably? Why do you say that?

"You see, I met him at the coffee shop downtown. We had some altercation about car parking. He literally made me look like a fool. He makes me so angry!

"Really Samantha? He makes you so angry? But I didn't see anger when you were about telling me about him. I saw you blushing!

"What? Me? Blush? I did no such thing, Nancy!

"Yeah right. My second question, is he tall and handsome?

"Well, he is kinda tall, but I don't know about being handsome"

Nancy looked at Samantha, waiting to hear her say, if her neighbour was handsome or not. Samantha looked away, trying to avoid the question, but Nancy's inquisitive look couldn't let her ignore the question.

"Fine! He is handsome okay, there you have it! Are you satisfied now? She asked, smiling.

"I knew it! I knew!! I knew you couldn't be talking about him and blushing if he wasn't handsome"

"He may be handsome Nancy, but I don't like him one bit. He makes me think less of myself. He thinks too high of himself and that drives me crazy"

"Don't you think you may be judging him too early, Samantha?

"I don't think so. He accused me of parking in a wrong spot and he was wrong!

"Did he apologize?

"Yeah well, he did but I still don't like him"

"Relax Samantha. I think you are being too hard on him. I know you have been single for a long time, why don't you take this time out to keep yourself open for a relationship"

"I will, but it definitely will not be Allen. It sure can't be Allen!

"Allen? Is that his name? Nancy asked.

"Yes, that's his name, why?

"Nothing, I like his name. His name sounds interesting, I think I like him already"

"Seriously? How can you like someone you have never met, Nancy?

"I don't know, maybe the way you have talked about him, makes me think I will like him or something"

"Stop it Nancy. You tend to like everyone, and that's your biggest flaw"

"You call seeing the good in people, my biggest flaw, Samantha? I don't think that's a flaw at all"

"Yeah, whatever you say Nancy. How's your mother doing?

"My mother is still being my mother"

"Is she still trying to make you go out with her male friends?

"You should know, she still does that. I have told her that nothing in this world will make me befriend men who are old enough to be my father. I still wonder why my mother thinks it's a good idea to date older men. I wish she could date them herself and let me be"

"Have you seen any of the older men? Have they approached you? Doloris asked.

"They do approach me whenever I go to see my mother, but I ignore them. It doesn't make sense dating my mother's friends, I just find it crazy!

Nancy stood up to go to Samantha's kitchen. She was hungry and needed to make something for herself, when someone knocked on Samantha's door.

"I'll get the door" Nancy said.

Nancy got up and went to see who it was. She opened the door and he was standing there like a sculpture out of a fairy tale in all his glory. Nancy stared at him. She couldn't look away. He was everything Samantha had said and more.........;
