“He is someone special." I told Shawn smugly and I watched his face contort in fear and anger and hate.He dropped his fork on the plate, wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and stared at me.I dropped my eyes down to my plate, trying my best to avoid his hard glare. As a distraction, I used my fork to play with my pasta.“What did you say?." I heard his deep voice ask. My head was throbbing painfully hard and all I could think of was how I could dig my fork into Shawn's chest in a way he would not survive.“Answer me!." He yelled slamming his hand on the table, I trembled in sudden shock, I was not expecting him to make so much noise.I looked Shawn in the eye, his nostrils were flared, his skin red, veins were popping from his neck in restrained anger. I smiled, words merely had any effect on Shawn but I was very glad that this particular one did.“Robert is more Man than you'll ever be." I told him, holding his gaze, I was scared but I just needed to get the eight words out
ROBERTI drove around for a while, for two hours. Then I drove to the park. Not knowing what else to do or where else to go. I climbed down from my car and made it towards the single bench in the park. I had prayed so much that now, I had given up in the idea of a divine supreme being. I had prayed to find Emmaline, yet nothing happened.I sat on the bench in the park, and I eventually drifted off to sleep.***After jubilating, I stood still and started walking out. That was when It hit me that I did not know where the fuck I was.How could I get back home, I didn't know where My brothers house was, I didn't know the address.I stood in the center of the road, watching for signs of any body walking my way so i could ask them for help, after a few minutes without the signs of anybody walking, I turned back to the diner only to find out that they had closed already.After a few more minutes of feeling stranded, I met a young lady walking towards me and I stopped her. “Hi... I'm lost,
I was out of breath, so I pulled out to take in some air, I knew that Robert used the same opportunity to breathe, that was why he knew the right timing. After he felt I had inhaled and exhaled enough, he pressed his lips onto mine. He cupped my face and kissed me all over again.The sound of someone's clapping made my shoulders tremble and I quickly pulled out of the kiss to find Casper standing some feets away from us.“I'm scattering the city looking for my sister and here you are pressing yourself on her." Casper said to Robert. We were so indulged in the kiss that we didn't even hear his car pull up.“Casper." I said and ran to him, he seemed angry but immediately I hugged him, his brows dropped and his boyish grin returned.“Hey princess..." He said softly putting a strand of hair behind my ear and running his hand across my cheek.He sighed in relief.“I thought we'd never find you again." He said hugging me tightly.I pulled out of the hug to take in his expression, he looke
I turned away sharply, inhaling the cold night's breeze.“Emmaline..." Robert's voice called, I turned sideways, trying my best not to look back.Casper held open the door for me, I entered into the passenger seat and I sat comfortably inside. I turned to look and I saw Robert standing still.Immediately Robert put the car into drive, Robert found his leg and he walked towards us.“Emmaline, don't worry about him..." Casper said reassuringly.I turned to face the road and he drove to a hospital." I'm fine..." I told him lying.I was scared of getting stiches.“Loretta is in... Wave is with her. After I brought her to the hospital, I came in search for you and had looked everywhere he knew... So he went to see how she's doing." Casper said.“How is she?." I asked Casper.His brows shot together and he head my face and turned to examine my neck.“There's blood stain on your neck." He said anxiously.I knew that there was no way I could hide it as he started searching for the source of
I felt fingers on my forehead, it was light yet hard enough to shake me from my slumber. I would have mistaken the next touch for the same fingers if I didn't feel the warm breath.My eyelids flew open in alert.“Heyyy, you're awake." Robert said, gently tracing a finger across my lips.I tried to sit up but his strong hands held me down.“Rest." He said and stood straight, from where I laid, he seemed to dawrf everything in the room, Including me. I looked around, then I looked at him.“How did you find me, what are you doing here?." I asked him.“I followed Casper's car." He said pulling the single chair and putting it in front of my bed. He sat quietly.“I'm sorry I woke you up " he said softly.“What are you doing here?." I asked him, remembering the picture of him and Tonya.He paused, taking in my expression.“You're Jealous." He said.My brows shot together in a frown, who does he think he is?.“Please, get out." I snapped, anger running through my veins.I sat up.“Emmaline..
I had to marvel at Robert's reflexes, how could I not. Some inches to the right and Casper punched the air. Casper missed and his annoyance showed that he clearly never misses.“Casper." Robert warned my big brother because he was getting ready to throw his second punch again.Casper breathed out, it took effort for him to keep himself still, it was as if we were all stepping on thin ice.“Robert, why don't you stay away from my sister, there are countless women you can pick from. Women throw themselves at you, pick any." Casper said, his voice was rough and hard.“I want Emmaline and I'm going to have her, if she let's me." He said, his voice was rougher and harder, I bit my bottom to suppressing a stupid smile that is threatening to break from his words.My cheeks were burning with embarrassment, Casper turned to me as if he was waiting for me to make a decision, I looked at Robert, he was looking at me expectantly too.“What?." I asked knowing that I had zoned out and they had said
“Loretta, how are you feeling?." Robert asked her, the spell of staring at Casper quickly broke and she turned away from him and nodded her head once. “Apparently, the file you stole didn't belong to Loretta, you don't even know her last name." Wave said with a teasing laugh.Casper was quiet.Robert turned from Casper to Wave, catching everything that happened by simply piecing the puzzle, I loved watching him think, I loved watching him do everything, he was too goddamned handsome and hot, I saw the smile creeping onto his lips and when the low tumble came, I expected it but it threw me off my feet. Sent chills down my spine. He turned to Loretta.“Hope they weren't any complications." Robert asked her, she smiled. “I'm free to go home, the doctor said it but they're yet to release me, I think they'll let met stay till morning." She said and she left, instantly my mind fell to the time.“What's the time?." I asked nobody in particular, Robert glanced at his watch." 5:17." Casper
I didn't even have enough time to react to the pain of his first punch, he decided to throw another one, I dodged the hit but it made him more angrier.“Are you fucking kidding me!." He yelled throwing yet another punch.“Wave, stop, I don't want to hit you." I told him and he lunged towards me slamming us both to the ground.“Cut it out!." I shouted but he doesn't listen to me. He grabbed me by my collar and raised his fist in the air, there was no reason why I would hit him other than the fact that he would fucking crack my skull.I punch him first and push him off me, he was still resilient enough to want to punch me again, so I hit him hard.“Fuck!." He groaned.“I warned you, I did not want to do this." I told him, we were both bloodied.“I would have to escort you both out of the hospital." A security guard said. There were four security men standing in the door. I walked out of the room and I heard Wave's footsteps behind me.The security guards escorted us outside and went ba
