Chapter 28
Losing my mind
Author POV
Thinking about the whole incident, everything still seem like a dream to her, and each time she thinks about the kiss, she just couldn't help cringing, as anger surged through her. The sound of the knock on her door, jolted her back to reality, and rolling her eyes, she stood up and reached for the door, before opening it, but her face darkened at who she saw, it's a a middle aged man of about forty to forty five years of age.
"Hey princess." The man smiled at her.
"Dad please... I'm in no mood for that now, so can you leave me alone? I had a very long and tidy day back at work, so I need to rest." She said calmly, trying not to sound rude, but her anger waa written all over her.
Hurt flickered on the man's eyes, but it disappeared immediately, followed by a smile, as he nodded, and with that, he turned around and left, before she closed her door, and went to sit on the edge of her bed, drowning in her own thoughts.
The sound of her buzzing phone pulled her back to reality, and she ruffled her hair frustratingly, before reaching out to it lazily, but her face brightened, as she was welcomed with the sight of her boyfriend's number. Without hesitation, she slide the answer button, before taking the phone to her ear, while having an exciting smile on her face.
"Hey baby..."
"Cut that crap Eve, and don't try to act smart with." His angry voice sounded from the other end, and she took the phone away from her ear, with her eyes shut tightly, as she flinched. What the heck! Does he want to make her deaf or something?
She gulped down the lump in her throat confusingly, as she stared at the screen of her phone for seconds, and took a deep breath, trying calm down, before taking the phone to her ear again.
"What's wrong babe?" She asked confusingly, while staring into space, questioning herself what the problem could be.
"What in God's name is going on between you and that bastard? How could you still be pretending Eve? Do you have conscience at all?" His angry and painful voice came on again, but this time, more louder.
Her heart skipped like a million times, as she processed what she just said, and she just couldn't help getting nervous, as so many thoughts came running through her mind. He couldn't have found out about the kiss, right?
"Wha... what are you talking about?" She asked, still looking all confused and nervous.
"Don't ask me dumb question you harlot! Don't you ever in your miserable life, come anywhere close to me, ever again!" His angry voice came on, and in the next second, the call disconnected.
Her mouth dropped opened, as it started trembling, tears welled up her eyes, as she gulped down nothing like a million times, his words still ringing in her head. She just couldn't believe the whole thing happening, she couldn't believe her ears, and in all, everything is still like a dream to her.
She pursed her lips, and with her trembling hands, she turned on her data connection, and in the next seconds, series of messages and notifications keeps popping on the screen, and that was when everything became clear to her, because trending on the internet, is the picture of her and Jayden, kissing romantically.
Her grip tightened around her phone, as she stared at the screen, her head banging hard, as she read the caption, over and over again.
The thought of her boyfriend flashed through her mind, as her heart tightened in pains, she just couldn't believe that she's going to lose the only man she ever loved, she couldn't bring herself to accepting her fate of being separated from her boyfriend, she loves him so much, she can't go a day without him, and the thought of him, breaking up with her, makes her feel like she's done with life itself.
Pool of tears came streaming down her cheeks, as she couldn't stopper herself from blaming Jayden, it was all his fault, he ruined her life, but then, she thought it was her fault too, if only she had forgotten about being loyal to his dad, if only she had resigned, maybe all of this wouldn't have happened, but instead, she chose to inconvenience herself, for the sake of another person, and it all have ended her life in tears.
She searched through her contacts, and once she got to her boyfriend's number, she hit the dial button, and waited impatiently for him to pick up, while praying that he did. The phone rang for a minute or two, but as expected, he didn't pick up, but she didn't give up anyways, as she kept calling him, hoping that he picks up.
Standing up on her feet, she paced back and forth in her room, while holding her phone to her ear, more tears, finding their ways out of her eyes, as he heart kept tearing apart, her whole world, crumbling right in front of her, her life, ruining before her very eyes, and she just can't seem to be able to do anything about it.
After calling his line effortlessly for what seemed like forever, without anyone picking it, she finally dropped her phone on the bed, and ruffled her hair crazily, while staring into space with her puffy eyes, as she tried figuring out what she can do about the whole thing.
After minutes of staring into space, doing nothing, she finally reached out to her car keys, whicb was laying on the bed, and without waiting for the next second to tick, she sauntered to the door, and flung it open, before storming out, and in the next few minutes, she was already descending down the stairs, running as fast as her legs could carry her, going to God knows where.
"Eve where are you going to this late night?" Her mom asked worriedly, as she came out of the dinning room, as soon as she sight her, looking all worried, but Eve didn't spared her a glance, ad she sauntered to the exit door, before storming out of the house, going to God knows where...
