10: Brutally Honest.

2021-11-13 05:52:33KURT'S POV:-
After hearing her response, I tried to come up with a response but I was speechless. She was right. Her mom told me proudly that her son was gay. Then why would she try to push her daughter to have a straight relationship. If she was really a supportive mother like she had told me, she would never push her daughter to have something she did not want. I looked into her eyes and I literally saw pain in her eyes. She was hurt because of my words.
"Hey!" I whispered as I went closer to her. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her closer to my chest. I was just trying to make my point. I did not mean to hurt her feelings.
"Shhh… you don't have to cry. I am so sorry, Sugarplum. I did not mean to hurt your feelings. If you don't like men, just tell your mom. So she would not push you to like someone you just don't feel to be with." I whispered softly while rubbing her back. As she heard me, she pushed me away. I could see anger in her eyes. She was suddenly very angry. I gulped hard but did not move.
"I am not gay. I am a straight woman. I never had any relationships in my life because everyone thinks of me as a freak. Not because I was a lesbian. I am known as the ghost hunter in Brooklyn. And just as guys hear that I can see ghosts, they run away from me. I don't lie. And my mother can not digest anything without lying." She spoke through her gritted teeth. She was trying to contain her anger. Hearing her, I was shocked again. I just could not believe that her mom literally lied to me.
"Hey! I am sorry. I did not know anything. It is not my fault. Your mother lied to me. How can I know if you were not lying. Your mom told me that she is pretty convincing. Then you told me the same about your mom. It is just not my fault, you know." I replied to her and raised my hands in defeat. She sighed and grabbed the glass of juice. She downed the whole content in one go.
"But why would she want you to have a relationship when you clearly look okay with the fact that you are single? I just don't get it." I asked her in a confused tone. She rolled her eyes when she heard my question.
"That is because my mom thinks that I am too old to be single and it is now time for me to get laid. She thinks I am her innocent daughter. And if I stay single longer, I will drop the idea of being with someone." She replied to me in a jovial tone. She had a devilish smirk on her face. Something I was not expecting to see on her face. But it suited her.
"Oh… you are not a virgin, are you?" I asked her and she shook her head almost instantly. I chuckled softly while looking at her. She was very wicked.
"And your parents do not know that you are no longer a virgin?" I asked her another question and she shook her head again. We were silent for a few minutes. After that, she was the first one who burst into laughter. Seeing her laughing carelessly, I also started laughing hysterically. It was funny that her mom literally made me think that she knew her daughter so much. She did not even know that her daughter was no longer a virgin.
"I was in highschool when everyone learned about the fact that I could see ghosts. I was about to get my first date and that too at the prom. The guy was the captain of the football team. Plus, his grades were amazing. He proposed to me and I said yes. The cheerleader didn't like the idea. She had a crush on him. Her name was Darcy and my date was Damian. A year before, I helped Darcy and her family to get rid of a ghost that was hurting them brutally. That's how she learned the truth." She started telling me the story from her past. I nodded my head slowly after hearing her story.
"Let me guess the rest of the story. She got pissed. She told everyone about your secret so Damian would refuse to go with you to prom." I added the rest of the story. She had a smirk on her face as she nodded her head.
"Bravo! You got the rest of the story pretty quickly. But, that's not how that story ended. I hate bullies. What I did, I did it to help people. She used my gift against me. So I took my revenge on her. As I was sexy and beautiful even in highschool, I asked Damian to sleep with me before prom. The good ghosts in her mansion told me that she was thinking about losing her virginity after prom. So I did that before prom. Then sent our sensual pictures to her when she took Damian to her place." She replied to me then she added more to her story. By the end, we both were laughing hysterically while bumping our fists. She was very cool.
"You are wicked. But really, she deserved it. You did right. Good job." I said in a proud tone while patting her back and laughing with her. After a while, she sobered up.
"But that also took away my life. No one wanted to be friends with me. I became a freak for the whole city. I could not even get a lab partner in school, finding a boyfriend was out of the options. I do have friends now. But they are people who believe in me. They are almost like me. Some can see ghosts. Some have religious beliefs in these supernatural mysteries." She said in a flat tone. I just could not help but think how selfish that woman was. She betrayed someone who helped her in need.
"So! Do you meet your friends often or not?" I asked her and she chuckled.
"No, we don't meet often. We all have different kinds of jobs. We hardly get a chance to be at one place and together. We have plans for this weekend. That's the reason you are talking to me. Otherwise, I would have locked myself in the room. I want to go to my mom's beach house. And if I behave tonight, I'll get the keys. I am also a selfish person now." She honestly replied to me and I was shocked. I did not expect her to be that honest. Not after knowing how easily her mom can lie.
"Ouch! You are brutally honest, Sugarplum. But I like that. It really never happened in my life when a woman is honest with me. They usually lie to me so they could be with me. Good to know that there are people in this world who can be honest with me. So I can be myself in front of them." I complimented her and she chuckled again. She was very cute. And she was actually different from the women I had been with.
"What do you say if your weekend with your friends would be on a yacht instead of your mom's Beach House? If you are free and if you would like to have some fun with me and my friends? What do you say?" I asked her in a hopeful tone. I really wanted to know more about her. And I knew I could not ask her everything in a few hours.
"It's a date." She replied to me with a wicked smile on her face. I chuckled softly and nodded my head.
"It is a date, Sugarplum. Wear something that makes you feel comfortable. I will pick you up at 10 am sharp. And I will text you the address for your friends." I added as I stood up. She nodded her head. I leaned in and pecked her cheek. With that, I grabbed my wine glass and walked out of her bedroom.

Once I was done, I applied eyeliner and lipgloss. As I did not need makeup, I hardly wore any makeup. I wore my black boots and sprayed perfume on my body. Once I was ready, I grabbed my back and stepped out of my bedroom. I went downstairs. As I entered the kitchen, my mom smiled widely. She came to me to hug me. But instead of that, I ducked and walked towards the fridge. I grabbed the bottle of milk and poured it in a glass. With that, I grabbed an apple and took my seat towards the mini dining table in the kitchen. "Leyla! Your mom was trying to hug you. And you just ignored he

Because, last I remember, you said we will be in Oregon for our next date. But we are at the beach in New York City." I asked him in a dramatic tone that made him chuckle.He laid down on the sand with one of his hands under his head. He opened the second arm for me. I smiled shyly then laid down with him.

Then he made me sit on a bench and went away. And I was waiting for him, while finishing his and my ice cream. Well, I was hungry and angry. And ice cream was perfect in both scenarios.After almost twenty minutes, he came back. By then, I had finished both of our ice cream. He had a mischievous smirk on his face. I bit my lower lip with a guilty look on my face. "Sorry. I was hungry and angry and your ice cream was more delicious than mine. So I could not stop myself." I said with a guilty pout on my face. Seeing my pout, he laughed out l

I nodded my head as I opened my purse and pulled an envelope out of my purse."Here you go. As promised. Sixty grand. Now, are you sure everything is under control?" Because once I get in, you can't get me out until I am done." I asked him in a curious tone. He opened the envelope and started counting the money. He nodded his head as he heard my question."Yes! It's fine and I have turned off all the cameras until you are done. Nobody will come back until two days later. There is something they are preparing to bring here after two days. Just go inside and get done with everything." He replied to me in a confident tone that made me roll my eyes at his non serio

He pulled his phone out and dialled a number. He waited until the phone was answered."Hey, man! Found anything?" He asked on the phone and waited for the response. He sighed in a disappointed way after a minute."Yeah, I think so too. It's about to dawn in a while. We need to head home. Let's rest for a few hours then start looking for her again in the morning." He spoke in a disappointed tone. He listened to whoever he was talking to on the phone. Then he hung up. He grabbed my hand then pulled me away. We w

Once I was done with the shower, I wrapped a towel around my waist and stepped out of the bathroom. I went towards the bed and sat down on the edge of the bed. I leaned over and let the droplets of water fall on her beautiful face.She frowned twice then slowly opened her eyes. She gasped as she found me so close to her. I was staring into her eyes. She gulped hard while looking at my almost naked body. "I need to go. That's why I had to wake you up." I said in a guilty tone after a few minutes of silence. Seeing my face, she chuckled. She sat up on the bed, staring

For me, I thought she was the only one who could help me find the truth hidden behind the walls I could not touch. And Alina was my last hope to figure out all the answers I had been looking for.Hearing my question, the maid sighed in a disappointed way then shook her hand. "I am so sorry, Leyla.
