Did I question Drake about the hug? No! Because why should I? Do I love him? I don't really know!That day when I got home, Jamie sent me a long epistle of apology and how embarrassed she felt. The funny part of what she said was, "I mean no harm, I know I hurt you. Please forgive me, I won't say you should forget about what happened but remember that that's what is been preached. You should practice what you are being taught....""Wow", I exclaimed while reading that line. "She knew how to preach but she went behind my back to have sex with my boyfriend?"I asked myself. They say when dining with the devil use a longer spoon. But in my case, I won't even dine with the devil at all. "Is all this fight really necessary? I shouldn't be angry with her because of a little toad called a man right?" "Becky, Becky!" I heard my mom call me, snapping me out of my reverie. It seemed she had been calling me for a long while. I turned my neck to look at the door, and immediately the door creake
Opening my eyelids which felt heavy, shutting them back again, a flush of headache panged on me. "She's awake, oh no ..thank goodness!" A voice excitedly spoke. Still feeling dizzy, I forced my eyes open, darkness covered the room when I opened my eyes but it later subsided into smaller particles which became clearer, revealing the environment in which I lay."She's awake Therena!!" Looking at the face above my head, which was the lap which I laid on, I realized that I was lying down on Jamila's lap and the flashback of them together at the door replayed vividly in my face. With the weakness in me, my heart troubled, and gritted my teeth with my mouth shut.They were the reason I fainted, what if I woke up to see their face and I ran mad or died? "What? " I didn't know what to say to them, as I tried raising my head and body up, I noticed a doctor with a stethoscope wrapped around his neck standing by the door."Can you guys please leave? I want to be alone." I complained and Jamila
"Why are you crying?" Drake asked, taking my palms in his hands as he shut the car door. Tears continued to roll down my eyes, and I sniffled, while Drake drew me closer to him. With concern on his face, "Tell me what's the problem baby?" I wiped my eyes with my hands, and he inched closer and took out a handkerchief from his pocket which smelt like lavender, and wiped my eyes. "What's wrong? Talk to me" His voice was calm and soothing.Stuttering, I responded, "I'm just crying because I feel like crying." I said with seriousness in my tone, Drake's jaw dropped slightly, first, he let out a sigh which transcended to a chuckle, and lastly an outburst of laughter."Why are you laughing?" I asked him, pouting my lips. He placed his hands on the steering and locked his eyes with mine, with a soft smile on his face as he licked his lower lips unnoticeably, "Now come here, mama"I rested my head on his shoulder and smiled softly but my head was still clouded with thoughts. "Open up!! You
Drake hit him harder from behind, as he tried to wipe away the spit which I spat on his face. His grip on me became less so I tried wriggling myself out of his arms but I almost fell badly from the smack Drake gave to him. "What is the meaning of this?" I asked myself as I landed on the ground and Aiden was on his knees too. Running away from Aiden's reach, I headed to the car and clutched it quickly, opening the car door and running in for safety.Drake hit him again and took a hastened step toward the car. He looked at Aiden's direction who remained on his knees. It seemed like Aiden was still trying to recover from the hit which Drake accrued to him." What the fuck is wrong with that man?" Drake rhetorically asked, while cursing under his breath.He opened the door, entered it, and slammed it behind as he hit the pedal. "I honestly don't even know for real. He scares me sometimes!" I mumbled, shaking and breathing heavily while I placed my left hand on my chest.I was still in sho
"Hello mum?", I responded picking up the surprising call from my mom. "Why would she call me in the first place?" I asked myself."Who's that?", Drake asked, lifting his head slightly, while I lay on top of him. "My mom", I said out loud before responding to the statement my mom made. "Wait whose voice is that?" My mom interjected, rolling my eyes, I hissed."I am in safe arms mom, I am with my boyfriend. I didn't go back to or with Aiden. I feel scared, really really scared. Mom!! It doesn't feel safe." My mom hesitated for close to a minute before responding to me."But.. anyways!! Do what you like as far as you are safe, I'm fine." My mom responded in a tone I could not really understand and immediately she hung the call on me."This woman's annoying as fuck." I mumbled.****Three days later after the whole scene, I didn't go back home. Aiden had been calling me throughout those days which pissed me off and I didn't even receive them. On the fourth day, my mom decided to take a da
"If you say a word right now I am going to slap the disrespect out of your soul" Mrs Rita's face squeezed into a frown as she pointed her fingers at me while she spoke. "The truth is bitter Mom, the truth is..", I was cut short as I shrieked in surprise. Drake held back her hand from landing on my face. " I will say it over and over again! Mom! I don't care, I can make you both land in prison cells. Firstly you are making an attempt to assault me. and also..."She cut me off, "Enough.. enough of everything of your blabbing and pick up"I retorted, "Why, what if I don't? You seize all my funds and make them yours, with Aiden? Come on! I know you don't love me, you are just pretending to. ", as I spoke, I moved an inch closer, piercing eye contacts with my mom."You are saying all this to me ?", My mom asked, her cheeks dropping down, same with her tone. " Look you've got your man! Let me stay with my man in peace and not in pieces, please. You've got yours at home so go and stay with
"I'm coming with you!" I yelled, turning to look at Drake and back at my mom who turned her back to look at me. "Come if you want to come," She yelled back, covering her face. She immediately ran and entered into the car.I hugged Drake for a second, "Bye bye" I said and hurriedly ran away with my mom. "Be careful" Drake warned, "Call me if you have any issues" Drake said I was already in earshot.Waving at him, I held the handle of the car, got in, and slammed it hard. "Just stay calm Mom, or maybe I should drive the car". I mumbled and placed my hands on the steering. "Get back in the back", I nodded, and my mom looked shocked at me. "When did you learn how to drive?" My mom asked in surprise."When you stopped." I held back my words, thankfully she didn't ask me to complete my sentence. She was shattered, and I loved it. My reason for following her was to see how she was going to act truly and to see Aiden's deceptive attitude be revealed.Getting on the wheel I drove steadily and
I refused to go back to Drake's place, of course, I wanted to check if my mom was just acting a comic show to make me relieved because every time they had a slight misunderstanding, they'd make love to each other. "Becky! I'm out of this place, if you want to continue to stay here, that's your business as for me. I am out of here, you hear that?" My mom said as she opened my door. I could see she was fully dressed and with a small luggage. "Okay mama, bye," I said."She doesn't really care, right? She's just angered about the fact that Aiden cheated on her right?" I asked my inner self. I got up to go and lock the door because I knew I was in a big problem.Thirty minutes after my mom left, there was a soft knock on my door. My heart froze for a moment, muttering the courage to speak, I yelled, "Who is that?""Just open up, it's Aiden. I just wanna have a little conversation with you if you don't mind?" His tone was really calm. "Are you sure or you wanna come beat me up for reveali
