Chapter 79: Cheating or lust?

Alan's POV

He made me sit on a mini bench close to the door as she wasn't done with me yet. I was almost lost in his tender gaze as he didn't lose go of me.

He sat next to me, making me timid and soaking myself with my emotions.

I folded my lips as he spread his arm across my shoulders, cupping me closely to his side.

I gnash my teeth while the pharmacist applied the ointment gently to ease the pain.

We didn't spend much time at the pharmacy as the pharmacist prescribed some drugs for me and how I should take them.

He drove me from there and got to a restaurant so we could eat but I refused and just sat in the car.

He had no choice than to ordered something for me. When he did, he handed a sealed pack filled with baked snacks and I could perceive the flavor from where I sat.

I didn't take it from him and he just placed on the dashboard and he began to drive.

There was an awkward silence between us as he just didn't waste his time starting a conversation because I'd snub him.

It was getting darker and when he had gotten to a crosswalk close to my resident, I told to stop.

He did and not exchanging any words or pleasantries, I jumped out of the car before he'd stop me.

He makes me nervous and there he comes. His footsteps right behind me that I was forced to stop.

He wouldn't be seeing me again and this would be the last respect I'd give to him.

"Alan, you forgot this" he said and hastily I turned around and found him with the pack of snacks.

"Forget about it, that won't change my mind" I spat so ungrateful. I knew of that.

My attitude would chase him away.

Larry heaved a sigh as he gaze at me. He lucked his lower lip and then kissed his teeth while tugging a hand in his pocket.

"Think of yourself for once Alan, stop killing yourself on guys who'd keep hurting you and apologizing"

He was scolding me and I could feel the anger and grief in his tone. He was mad at me not because I rejected him but because I was hurting, yet, I kept it in.

I gulp hard as he stretched the snack bag at me. I took a few steps closer with a cold gaze at me.

I hate it every time he thinks he understands. I just don't want his care or I might end up thinking about him.

"I hate it when people think they know everything about me, just stay away" I snapped rudely, searching his eyes.

"I wish I could but I've loved you for a long time, I don't care if you reject me, besides it's an unrequited love"

I eyed him intending to take my leave but he then said;

"Don't place your anger on the snacks, they did nothing wrong"

Annoyingly, I turned back and snatched the bag from him before leaving.

Every step I took, I anxiously take a look behind me and he was there at that position, his worried eyes staring.

I ignored him and faded away.

***

I took a glimpse of the pack in my hand, Darius would take it. I was sure of that. Then i'd explain to him I wouldn't be working for a while.

Here I am, staring at the door leading inside the house. I still had the medicine with me, I didn't forget it.

I was tensed though as I opened the door only to be greeted by the stench of alcohol and loud moans in the sitting room.

Curiousity wears me as I cough, waving my hands to wade off the fog that had form around my face.

I stride further inside the house and my eyes sighted someone on Darius, fucking him as he growl and screeches he should go harder.

The pack fell off my hand as I gasped.

"Darius?" I softly called and the man on him quickly jerked up, curling himself to a corner of the couch.

Darius shifted his gaze at me, a bit shock wears him but he straightened his face and acted like I wasn't existing.

I scrolled my eyes at the both of them. My breath ceased for a moment as I just couldn't fanthom this whole scenario.

Darius didn't seem remorseful and he growl as though having his regret that I ruin his moment.

"Fuck! Why are you so early?" He muses raking his hair and laying flat on the couch.

The fog had decreased and I could see him clearly and the sitting room was messy and irritating that I was developing some rashes on me.

I rolled my eyes to the man who he was fucking, having a sense of guilt on him.

He was a neighbor from two blocks away. It was so hard to believe, Darius wouldn't right?

Darius wore his pant properly and then zip up. He wasn't saying anything which pisses me off.

"What's he doing here!" I barked fuming in my heart and just wanting to believe it was an illusion.

"Giving me all the pleasure I ever need" he brawl with a silent hiss.

My heart beats fast as he gestured on this man to put him back on his wheel which he did.

I felt like passing out as it was obvious he fuck around with guys in the neighborhood whenever I'm at work.

"Darius how could you! I try my best to hold us to together and you cheat on me!'

He placed a mockery face at me and then scoffed;

"You aren't the only guy in the world and you cheated on peris with me remember, fuck who talks about being faithful in the 21st century?" He proudly declared, grinning at me and the guy right next to him burst into laughter, waving his fingers effortlessly at me.
