Drake did not even wait for my response when he hung up. "Damn!" I weakly muttered as I stood up from the bed, but I slightly felt weak. "Becky, come and have your dinner upstairs", my mom yelled from outside my room."Is she not supposed to bring the food here knowing fully well that I may not have recovered well? I know this is all just a lie and pretense. If this was Aiden, it would have been breakfast, lunch, and dinner served on the bed." I spoke to myself inwardly."Can you hear me hunny?!" She asked from outside the door as she couldn't come in because I had jolted the door. "Please leave me alone ma", I muttered and massaged my forehead with my palms."Okay, can you at least just open up the door?" My mom pleaded from outside. "I'm gonna bring you food there. I understand and please forgive me my daughter" she added, I picked up my headset from beside my bed and connected it to my phone and music began playing in my ears.Anything my mom said after that could not be heard anym
I looked up at Drake and gave him a faint chuckle. With the weakness in me? "No, I won't do that, I don't plan on going anywhere. ", I replied after chuckling and picking the wet handkerchief beside me and placing it on my head. "Okay, I'll stay with you then," He said to me and I looked up at Aiden who stood before me."Why are you standing here? You want to kill me again?"I sarcastically asked. I knew I wasn't ready for all this drama before me. "I apologize for everything I did, honestly I can not remember what happened. like I said I was drunk. " He paused and looked at me and back at Drake."I'm so sorry, "He said and without a word to Drake, he moved out of the room and shut the door behind. "He was drunk? Is that an excuse to almost kill you? That's insane." Drake growled like a beast."Just shut up, and why did you hit him? You had no right to and I demand that you apologize to him. I don't care how you felt at the moment" I said in a serious tone, "Honestly, the hitting was
We bumped into my mom and Aiden making love, the sight terrified me. I was expecting to see some angry reaction from my mom towards Aiden but it seems this was no more love, but foolishness to me.My mom and Aiden turned their face towards me and discovered that we were standing before them. "Why couldn't you people just do this in your room?" I yelled and took Drake's hand and we moved back into our room."I apologize for what you saw outside there Drake," I mumbled and sank down. "There's no problem, you shouldn't. The sight was horrifying as much as it was beautiful.""Oh please.."*****A few weeks had passed by, and I had just begun to go well with my daily life routine of school, and house troubles and my trouble. On this sunny afternoon, I leave my house and head right off for my class. "Hey....Bee", I heard someone call my name as I turned my neck to a particular direction to check out who called my name." Oh hi.." I faked a smile. " It's been ages, I'm sorry I couldn't come
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
