"Naill what the hell" I said to him and he shrugged as if it was the most common and usual thing to do.
"She knows she has been made. She is probably trying to cover it up by what looks like sketching" I said as I looked at her sketch whatever she was sketching and I turned back to my friends.
"When you guys are done talking about whatever you are give me a call I got to go" he said then dropped the bill on the table making us both glare at him.
Raising his hand in surrender he quickly grabbed his drink because he knew that if he did not leave I would have returned the money in his damn pocket.
I invited them here not the other way round.
"What should we do about her?" Amala asked me and I shrugged my shoulders.
Although my guts told me to question her and if she did not talk punch the answers out of her I decided against it.
I left that life style long ago.
"Maybe the next time we spot her hanging like this we will question her but this time let it slide okay?" I said looking at Amala and she nodded.
Not completely agreeing with me but she knew I had a reason.
What would people think if we went to ambush an innocent looking woman anyways.
We the proceeded to finish our food then decided to call it a day after sitting and talking about everything that had gone on while we were basically forced to move to other men's houses.
After that we decided to call it a day and on my way driving back home reality struck me hard when I remembered that it was a weekend and I was bound to go to Josiah's face.
He did not go to his office on weekends.
"Can we talk?" I heard the voice say as I was about to go up to my room.
Freezing in my tracks I whispered a low 'fuck' then turned to look at the man I had hopped I would miss so that i dont have to face him.
"Sure" i said with a neutral face and he nodded then mentioned with his hand for me to take sit.
"How are you?" I asked trying to smooth up the tense and awkward atmosphere.
"I have a feeling that you have been avoiding me" he stated bluntly and I was taken back by his answer.
"I can say the same about you" I said looking at him and he sighed.
Cocking my head on the side by the reaction I got I did not know it would hurt like it did.
But hell it did.
"I needed to clear my head" he answered making me look at him.
Nodding my head silence fell upon us and once again the important topic was left untouched.
"Oh fuck this. Tell me what the fuck is going on between us? What is this? Where do we even stand" I said sighing and he did the same but rubbed his face.
Raising a brow I waited for his answer that was taking forever.
"I dont know" he answered making my heart shatter.
I never thought I would feel my heart break but damn this rejection felt like a thousand swords jabbed in my heart continuously.
"So all this meant nothing to you? Just like a month ago you told me that you love me or was that a lie!" I exclaimed getting frustrated and sad.
In a matter of minutes tears would start falling down and at that moment I won't care if this man saw me breakdown.
"Its just with all this going on and me trying to figure out ways to take down my mother are just doing a number on me" he said looking at my watering eyes and I shook my head in disbelief.
"Stop being pathetic.
This is an excuse I am the one who has a target on my back and all you could think is you!? I am the one who had to leave my house and change my private life!" I said a sob escaping me.
Damn it Nayra why now.
I wasn't done ranting to this asshole.
"And you know what! This was the exact damn moment to show and express that love you said you have for me because right now is when I need it the most" I said tears falling down and I watched him open his mouth trying to say something but I was not having it.
Not today and probably not ever since I was rejected like a sac or rotten potatoes.
"And do you know what Josiah Ivanov I love you too and I damn right regret doing so!" I said then stormed to my room well technically his room since he owned the house.
But the room was temporarily being occupied by me so I could technically call it my room.
I heard him call my name behind me and I turned to him with a glare.
"Do not ever utter my name. Matter of fact from now on keep your distance from me" I said as tears clouded my vision and I couldnt do anything than litsen to the sound of my heart breaking.
Falling on the bed without caring that the the sheets were infact tucked in meaning that I would have to unstuck them in order to cover myself I grabbed one of the pillows on the bed then covered my face with it.
I was hurt and I did not remember even once my mother telling me that a heart break would hurt this much.
Never.
Screaming in the pillow I took a moment to think of how weak I looked but when I closed my eyes again more tears cascaded down and I let out a sob once more.
