~Danny~
I pressed the doorbell, quite nervously. I didn’t know what to say, I’m not really good in apologizing, I don’t apologize frequently.
I impatiently pressed the doorbell again.
The knob twisted and the door opened.
Kelly stood there,, her eyes swollen, she had been crying. Her eyes w¡dened when she saw me, then she composed herself.
“What do you want?” She asked coldly.
I ran my hands through my hair.
“Look, I’m so…”
“Come in.” She cut me off. She opened the door w¡der to let me come in, I entered the house, she closed the door after me.
“Kelly…” I tried again.
She ignored me and walked into the kitchen. I sighed loudly and followed her.
She was cooking, the delicious aroma wafted to my nostrils, my stomach grumbled in protest.
“Kelly, I’m sorry..”
“Sit down,the food will be ready soon.”
“I didn’t come here to eat food.”I said, feeling frustrated. Why is she making it so hærd?
She didn’t talk to me, she just busied herself with the pot noisily.
I sighed loudly and sat down on a chair.
I’m ready to wait, even if you take all the time in the world.
I drummed my fingers on the table. Next time before I believe anything I’ll make sure I research about it.
She placed a plate of food before me, her face still sullen. I held her wrist, preventing her from leaving.
“Kelly.”
“You should eat now, your food is getting cold.” She tried to free her hands from mine.l, but I tightened my grip on her hand. She was forced to look into my face.
“I’m sorry. Please, I should have believed you. I feel stupid, I couldn’t believe that April would try something like that, please…” I could see the colour rising to her cheeks, she didn’t say anything.
“Eat.” She said quietly.
“No, forgive me first.”
“Eat your food, I’ll eat mine.” She succeeded in pulling her hands out of mine, then she walked over to the other side of the table and sat down.
She began to slowly eat her pasta, I watched her. She looked really sad.
She looked up at me.
“Won’t you eat?”
I picked up my fork and began to eat.
We ate in silence for a while, she didn’t once look up from her food.
“Kelly…”
“Today… I went to see my friend…” She began slowly, then carefully tucked her hair behind her ear.
“My friend, you know her, the one that tried to hug you, you called her crazy…” She paused.
I let her talk on. I wonder where the conversation was leading to.
“When I left your house this morning, I felt very bad, I felt heartbroken. I don’t know why I felt that way, I don’t know why your opinion about me suddenly matters so much to me. But still I felt bad. I decided to go to my friend’s house.”
She paused and looked at me for a long time, then she finally looked down at her plate.
“I have never really visited this my friend before, she never let me visit her. So today, I was heartbroken, I wanted someone to talk to, I went to her house… She didn’t even let me come out of my car.”
◀Flashback▶
~Kelly~
This is my first time of going to Jenny’s house. The car moved slowly into the quiet street.
I saw Jenny standing in the door way, her hair matted wildly. She stared at the car for a while, I wind down the window and waved at her. She didn’t seem impressed.
“Jenny!” I called out. Why is she behaving strange.
She moved close to the car.
“You’ve not been picking my calls, why?” I tried to open the door of the car to come out, but she stopped me.
“Don’t come out of the car. Stay in,side there and state your mission and then leave.” She said frostily.
I was surprised at the sudden coldness.
“Jenny..”
“Have I not warned you not to come to my house?”
“Why can’t I come to your house, you always come to mine.” I said pouting. She laughed.
“Seriously Kelly, you need to wisen up. Anyways state your mission and leave.” I felt hurt, but I masked it.
“Why are you not picking my calls, I wanted to invite you to …”
“I’ve been busy.” She cut me off.
“You should have at least told me instead of ignoring my calls.” I said, even though my eyes were threatening to spill out tears.
I came here to be comforted, I’m getting more hurt.
“Is that why you came here?”
“No, I just wanted to make sure that you’re okay.” I said, my voice shaky.
“As you can see, I’m fine. You can go now.”
“Jenny, are you okay? This is unlike you… Are we not friends?”
“No.” She said coldly. “We are not friends. Leave now.” She turned her face away from me.
“We are friends Jenny, I want to hug you. You’re not okay, something is bothering you Jenny.”
I was already crying like a baby.
“Kelly, you’re very childish. You cry at any little thing, you should be strong. You already have too many enemies, how do you think you can overcome them with this your weak attitude? You should be sharp, you should be wise, you should be bold. You should be you Kelly.”
I cried more, this is the Jenny I know, yet she’s asking me to leave.
“I’m me Jenny.”
“No, you’re shy, you’re dumb, you can’t even voice out your thoughts, you don’t even know what you want in life. You just keep quiet and let people step on you. You don’t fight back when you’re been attacked.” She turned her blue eyes to me, I could see pain, uncertainty in her eyes.
“Jenny..”
“You should get your priorities straight. If you continue like this, you’ll die of heart break. Goodbye, don’t come back here again.” She turned and made to leave.
“Wait Jenny… What about us…what happens to the both of us?” I asked quietly, wiping my eyes.
“From now on, there is no us Kelly. It’s just you, against the world.” She turned again.
“So our friendsh¡p means nothing to you? You’re just going to throw it away like that? Like thrash?”
She stood silently for a while, then turned and left without saying another word.
“Take me away from here, please.” I told the chauffeur, sniffing loudly.
I turned back to look at her house one more time, as it became smaller and smaller and smaller…
◀Present time▶
~Danny~
“I don’t even know why I’m telling you this in the first place. It’s not as if you care, yet I need someone to talk to…” She sighed loudly again.
“I’m tired of crying, I cry almost everyday. I want to be strong, the tears in my eyes has finished, my eyes are already sore from too much crying…”
She took a spoonful of her already cold pasta and shoved it into her mouth.
I held her hands, giving it a gentle squeeze.
“Why would Jenny just want to break all ties with me? It doesn’t even make sense at all, maybe something is wrong somewhere, why is all this happening?” She stared into my face for a long time.
“Sorry if I’m boring you, I just need to talk to someone…” She snatched her hands from mine and covered her face.
“It’s alright Kelly. And as for your friend Jenny, you need to move on. It’s obvious she does not want you around. I said soothingly. This felt strange. Comforting. I had never done this before.
“But it makes no sense, she can’t just ditch me like that… We are friends.”
She tucked her hair into her ear again.
“Like I said, she doesn’t want you around. You should forget about her. You’re a nice person.”
She smiled.
“I am?”
“Uhm…no?”
“But I know I’m nice, you’re the one who is always grumpy.” She raised the corner of her l-ips.
“I’m grumpy?” I asked surprised. I’ve always thought myself as a fun filled person.
“Yeah, you always ignore me. You just keep your face to your phone whenever I’m around.”
“Sorry about that.”
“It’s okay, eat your food, it’s already cold.” She picked up her spoon again. I watched her as she put a spoon of pasta into her mouth. She slurped down a piece of pasta that stuck out of her mouth. When she noticed me looking at her, she smiled.
Pretty.
“Eat.” She pointed at my food.
“We are cool now, right?” I asked anxiously.
“Uh..I guess so.” She looked down and inspected her nails
“So…friends?” I stretched out my hands. She looked at my outstretched hand, and then at my face.
She then took my hands.
“Friends.” She smiled.
Our handshake was longer than necessary, as we stared into each other’s face.
She looked away, clearing her throat.
“I’ll just uhm…clear the table.” She hastily stood up and picked up her plates. I smiled to myself.
“I’ll help you.” I stood up too.
“You’ll help me?”her eyes nearly popped out of her socket. I laughed at the look on her face.
“Sure, I can wash dishes.”
“You can?”
“Tssk…don’t dare me.”
“You can’t.”
“I can.”
“You can’t…’ I put my hands on her l-ips, shutting her up.
“Shut up and let’s go to the kitchen.” I grabbed her hands and pulled her to the kitchen, chuckling to myself.
👤OMNISCIENCE POV👤
◀Flashback▶
Amber opened the door and walked in,side the smelly apartment, a huge scowl on her face.
“You’re five minutes late.” Dominic drawled out, sprawled on the bed, and dragging on a cigarette.
“What do you want this time?” She asked, trying to stifle her anger.
“Don’t you dare be sharp with me!” He snapped irritated, sitting up. She shut up.
“Good girl. Now strip.” He pulled on the cigarette, drawing a lungful of smoke.
“What?”
“Strip! Now!”
She grind her teeth together in anger and quickly stripped down to her wa-ist. She felt his leering gaze travel down her body.
She covered her chest with her hands.
“Put down your hands.” He commanded.
“Dominic…”
“I said put down your hands Amber!”
She knew it would be wise not to make him angry. Her hands fell from her chest, leaving her ample bre*st exposed to him.
He chuckled loudly , his eyes fixed on her chest.
“Take off your jeans.”
He leaned back into the bed,
“please…”
“Quickly!”
Tears began to steam down her face, she slowly took off her jeans. Remaining her p-nts…
“Take that off too.”
“No. Don’t do this please.”
“Amber, be a good girl and do what I ask you.”
“I can’t.. I …please…”
He stood up, her heart leaped from her chest.
She shifted away from him.
“No please… Don’t…”
He yanked her roughly to him, and k-ssed her roughly. She tried to push him off, her fist pummeled his chest.
He laughed cruelly, and seized her wrist,
“Be a good girl now…” His voice grates her ears.
“No! Please!”
He pushed her to the bed. She trashed and kicked wildly, her hair flying around her face.
He removed his belt, and began to wh¡p her with it.
She trashed around, trying to escape the stinging belts.
“Please!…stop!” She pleaded.
He didn’t hear, he wh¡pped her more and more. She cried,and cried.
She became too tired to scre-m again.
He noticed her submission and smirked in satisfaction.
“Good girl…” He straddled her and brushed off strands of hair, sticking to her w-t face.
“You’re mine, mine alone…” He said, tilting her head up.
He leaned forward and k-ssed her. She didn’t respond to his k-ss.
He smacked her on the face.
“k-ss back!” He growled out.
Her l-ips parted and his tongue slid into her mouth. He bit down hærd on her l-ips, a little mo-n escaped her l-ips.
“Good girl.”
His hands wandered up, higher to cup a bre*st, giving it a hærd squeeze.
“Say you’re mine.” He commanded.
She just looked at him with teary eyes.
“Go on say it!” He growled impatiently. She looked away.
He became furious.
He turned her over on the bed, and pressed her head to the pillow.
He then began to smack her a*s, hærd, painfully.
The pillow muffled her scre-m, she tried to kick him, but he pinned her legs to the bed with his knees.
After smacking her for a long time, he paused.
She was saying something, he couldn’t hear it, her voice were muffled by the pillow.
He turned her over.
She was crying miserably, mucus running down her nose, her forehead shining with sweat.
“What did you say?” He asked, smiling, an insane smile.
“I..I’m yours…” She said.
“Good girl.”

❤Chapter 24A❤
~Kelly~
There was silence in the car as we drove back to Danny’s house. As you guess know, I’m very terrible in making conversations, so I just leaned back into the car’s cushion and began to hum quietly to myself.
We soon reached his house, I came out of the car and walked in,side. Immediately I walked in,side, Kori rushed out and hugged me, I hugged her back too, happy.
“Wow, wow, wow, what a nice reunion.” Damian said clapping, a huge grin plastered on his face.
“I missed you dray god.” I said smiling
“Then that means I deserve a hug too?” He raised a c*cky brow.
I smiled and moved closer to him and wrapped my hands around him. He seemed taken aback by my actions, but he still hugged me back.
We heard someone clear his throat. I disengaged from the hug.
“Seriously man, do you have this tendency of ruining… Special moments?” Dray god grumbled, eyeing danny.
Kori laughed.
“Don’t mind him dray, he’s jealous, but he’d never admit it.”
“Who’s talking about jealousy here? You’re the one that’s jealous because dray god didn’t hug you.” Danny retorted.
Kori snorted loudly.
“Should I hug you Kori?”
“No!”
“Please??”
“Awww…no!”
I laughed happily. Things were normal again.
My smile froze on my l-ips when I saw April come out from the house. She looked really pathetic. Her hair was tangled up and very messy, her eyes swollen and red.
“Danny…” She sniffed, walking towards us. Kori made to descend on her, but Damian held her.
“Look what your sister did to me… Take a look at my face… I’m so ugly now…” She eyed me viciously, then turned to danny. She tried to hug him but he stepped away from her.
“April, apologize to Kelly.” He said sternly.
“What?!” Her voice rose a pitch higher.
“Seems like you have problem understanding words now.” Kori snapped. “He said a-p-o-l-o-g-i-z-e mofo!”
“I’m not talking to you wh-re!” April snapped too angrily.
“Wh-re?!” Kori scre-med in indignation, her face twisted in anger. She tried to escape from Damian’s grip,, but he didn’t let her.
“April apologize now!” Danny was getting impatient. She looked aghast.
“Danny, you’re raising your voice at me?” She looked hurt. I felt a little sorry for her.
“What you did was wrong, you should apologize now!”
“Yes fat bitch! Apologize!” Kori ch¡pped in.
April turned to look at me viciously, her face scrunched up with so much hatred.
“I’d rather die than apologize to this…this bastard!” She spat out angrily, murderously.
I gasped in surprise… And then in anger.
She just called me a bastard!!
“Did..you…j..just call me…?” I couldn’t even complete my sentence
“You think this is over?” She gave a mock laugh. “You think you’ve won? You’ll hear from me soon!!” She stormed out.
They was tensed silence for a while. I looked into koris face.
She laughed loudly, Damian joined her.
I couldn’t laugh, I had never been threatened this way before. How could I laugh? What other evil plans could she be conjuring up in her head now?
“Kelly, you shouldn’t take whatever she says serious. We all know April, she’s very very good in making empty promises.” She laughed again.
I forced a smile.
“But seriously Kori, you hit her too much.” Damian said, laughing.
She scoffed loudly.
“She deserved more. Danny I hope this is the last time you’ll see her again? Right!” She asked. I turned to look at him.
“Mind your own business Kori.” Was all he said.
“Your business is my businss. She should never come here again!” She turned to me.
“Come Kelly, I made pancakes for you.” She took my hands. I gulped down. I wonder how the pancake will be like?
~Amber~
I
“Thanks for your patronage.” I said with my practiced smile. The customer smiled and left. I heaved a sigh and leaned forward to the counter, a tired smile on my l-ips.
“Amber, go and see how the new employee is doing so far.” Mom said, looking up from the money she was counting.
“Mom, when am I getting my leave, your other staff get to go on leave.” I said, curling my l-ips.
“I’m glad you said they’re staff. You’re my daughter, and…”
“Fine! I get it now. I’ll go and see how the new employee is doing!” I cut her off, my scowl deepening.
I dragged my feet through the tiled floor.
Our grocery store was now a supermarket, we had also employed some staff too.
I stood in a corner and watched the new staff as she attended to customers. I smiled in satisfaction.
I was just about to leave when my phone rang loudly. The staff turned to look at me, I smiled and waved her off.
I looked at the unknown number, with a fast beating heart. I hastened to the toilet and locked the door after me.
“Hello!” I said harshl, after looking around to make sure no one was behind me.
“I want you tonight…” Dominic’s voice rasped out from the other end. A wave of nausea surged through my body.
“Sorry, I have a boyfriend now, and I have no intention of cheating on him.” I hissed into the phone quietly.
“Amber, amber, Amber…” I heard a low chuckle at the other end, that sent goose bumps all over my body.
“You’ve grown more ferocious than the last time, and you know I love it…” I heard another low chuckle again.
“I want you tonight, I’ve missed your pretty b**bs…” I could detect lust in his voice.
“You’re sick!” I muttered, feeling disgusted.
“Meet me tonight, moonlight bar, 10:00pm.”
“I’m not coming!” I spat out.
“Yes you are…” His voice had dangerously dropped.
“I said I’m not coming.” I snapped irritated.
“Don’t get to sharp with me, you know the consequences…”
“I don’t care, I’m tired of you blackmailing me…I don’t care… You can show my family the video, I don’t care anymore…” My voice was already shaky.
I heard him laugh again. That long, throaty laugh that I had heard too often in the past, but now, it was sending daggers of fear through my body.
“Wow.. ” he said, after laughing for a long time. I could picture him wiping off tears from his eyes. “You’ve grown more braver than I thought, and in such a short time…I’m impressed…” A long silence, my heart was beating so wildly in my chest, I was afraid that he was even hearing the dull thud of my heart.
“You don’t care what your family thinks right? You didn’t think of your sister’s new found career right?”
My throat dried up immediately.
“Keep Kelly away from this…this is between the both of us.” My voice was pleading.
“I wonder how your sister’s Career will fare when a video of you sniffing cocaine goes viral…”
“Please, don’t do that…” I pleaded, fear consuming Me now. Kelly’s career cannot be ruined because of my mistake.
“I wonder how…”
“Please, I’ll do anything you want…please…” I pleaded.
“Anything?” I could detect the mockery in his voice. I winder what he’s thinking now, he’s insane.
“Anything…” I whispered.
A little laugh of pleasure, then a long pause.
“Break up with Derek.”
My legs buckled and I fell to the floor.
“I..I..can’t…” How can I just break up with my boyfriend? For no reason!
“Yes you can.!”
“I can’t! I love him!”
“You love me!”
“I hate you!” I spat viciously. He laughed.
“I love you.” I scoffed loudly
“You love me? Why are you blackmailing me?”
“How else can I get you back to me?”
“You had your chance, you misused it…” I said quietly. “…I’ll never be yours again…”
“No! You’re mine Amber! You should better get used to it!” He sounded very upset. The line went dead.
I buried my head in between my legs and cried.
