Chapter 19

Hurt

Jayden POV

Letting out a soft sigh, I dropped my phone on the bed, before going to get the door, but almost froze on my spot, as I was welcomed with Mae, standing with a cup of coffee on a small tray. A smile crept on her face as soon as she saw me and I just couldn't help scoffing inwardly, who the heck is smiling with her, huh?.

"Can I come in?" She peeked in.

Letting out a soft frustrating sigh, I closed my eyes briefly, before leaving the door wide opened for her to come in. Heading to the bed, I let my weight down it, as I picked my phone, and fixed my gaze on it, while pressing it. What the heck is she here for, huh? Why can't she just get the fact that I don't want her around me? You can think that I'm weird, but I'm not a type that fancy relationship as much, that shit sucks me, so I stay far away from it.

"Uhm... Jay... I brought coffee for you." She said in her tiny voice, and I sighed softly, before raising my gaze to meet her, still standing with the small tray in her hands. For heaven sake, can't she just get it? I remembered telling her that I'm in no mood to eat anything, so why is she serving me coffee now? And besides, who drinks coffee in the night? Is she trying to keep me awake all night or what?

"I'm fine Mae, I don't have appetite for anything, and besides, who takes coffee at this time of the night? I mean, it's almost bedtime, are you planning to keep me awake all night?" I asked, while looking at her. I don't know why I suddenly feel so repulsive about her, we used to be this best kf friends, but I don't know what went wrong though, not that it matters anymore, what matters is that I don't like her.

"Oh... my bad, I'll go make you something else." She scoffed nervously, and turned to go.

"Don't bother coming back, because I'll be asleep then. Don't forget to close the door behind you. Good night." I said, and laid on the bed, before dragging the duvet to cover myself.

I heard footsteps, followed by the door sound, and soon, the door closed. Heck! What's she doing here in the first place? I don't know why she irritates me so much.

After a few minutes, my eyelids became heavy, and slowly, they forced closed, as I drifted into a deep slumber.

I didn't know how many hours I've slept, but the sound of a knock on my door, jolted me out of my deep slumber, and I groaned tiredly, as I tossed on the bed, and let my sleep take over me again. The knock came on the door again, and this time, I groaned angrily, as I sat up, and swung my legs down the bed, before getting on my feet, after which I headed to the door. Geez! Who's disturbing my sleep now? Dad doesn't like disturbing my sleep, same with madam Rebecca, so who the heck is banging on my door.

Reaching out to the door angrily, I pulled it opened, as I was welcomed with Mae, standing in front of my door, dressed in sport wears. What the heck! How dare she disturb my sleep, huh? What right does she have to do that?

"Good morning Jay, how was your night?" She asked, while having a warm smile on her face.

"Yeah, what's with the knock?" I asked coldly, leaning against the doorframe, trying keep my heavy eyes opened, which were still heavy from the sleep. Can't I have peace in my own dad's house again? I've gone through alot already, so why is this young lady trying to frustrate me now, huh?

"Oh! Sorry for disturbing your sleep Jay. I was thinking if we can go out for morning workout. You know, this is what I do everyday." She said, looking all nervous. I'm happy she knows that she disturbed my sleep, and for that, she really got some nerves.

Tilting my head to check the wall clock in my room, before knowing what to say to her, I almost cringed, for goodness sake, it's just 5:30am, I mean, who goes out for some workout shit at this time of the day, huh?

"I'm tired Mae, and as you can see, it's still very early, and I need to get some sleep, before going to the office, so can you please let me be for now?" I said calmly, trying to sound as polite as I can be. This girl is just going to frustrate me to death, she's just crossing her boundaries, and I'm trying to be cool with her, for old time sake, but if she keeps getting on my nerves, then I'll be left with no choice, than to show her the stuffs I'm made of.

"I know Jay, but..."

"That's enough, don't push it please." I cut her off, and with that, I closed the door on her face, and groaned angrily, as I dragged my feet to the bed, and collided on it, before drifting to sleep again....

Mae POV

Tears came strolling down my cheeks, as I stared at the closed door. Is this how much he hates me? Is this how much I disgust him? What wrong have I done to deserve this?

Turning around, I walked weakly and sadly to my room. Why is it that anything I do to impress him, always end up pissing him off?

Stepping into my room, I walked sluggishly to the bed, and let my weight down it, before burying my face in my palms, drifting into thoughts. I know this is going to be really tough, but one thing I'm sure of, is that I'll never give up, I'll keep fighting for my love.

The sound of my phone jolted me out of deep thoughts, and letting out a soft sigh, I reached out to the phone, and rolled my eyes at the caller, it's Raymond, my secretary. I'm in no mood to pick his call now.

After what seemed like forever of sitting on the bed, drowning in my own thoughts, I finally stood up, and dragged my tired feet into the bathroom sluggishly. Stepping into the bathroom, I stripped out of my clothes, and got under the shower, before letting the water down my body.

After what seemed like forever of being in the bathroom, I finally stepped out, with a towel wrapped around my chest. Walking over to the dresser, I sat down, and stared deep into the mirror, gazing at my messed up reflection. I can't believe that it's barely two days I've been here, and I'm losing my mind already, what would the rest of my days here be like? Hell?

Letting out a sigh, I reached out to my skin care oil, and applied some on my skin, before applying some lotion on my body, after which I applied a little makeup.

Walking over to my cabinet, I opened it, and ran my eyes through the heap of clothes, hanging inside it, and I just couldn't settle with something nice. After a few minutes of contemplating on what to wear, I finally settled with a red short flare sleeveless gown, which stopped on my knees.

After getting dressed, I finally walked out of my room, but stopped in my track, as I heard noise, coming from uncle Oscar's room...
