Pia Pov
As soon as I reach home I find Tyler sitting in the living room glaring angrily at me. Wondering what wrong did I do this time,I reach up to my mom who is cooking in the kitchen and hand over her the bag.
She is taken aback little. She opens the bag to see what is inside and when she sees it she gasps and suddenly tears start flowing from her eyes.
She hugs me tightly and says,"You shouldn't have spent your money on this."
"Mom,I got you a dress and you just have to say that? Come on tell me how is it?" I ask
"Oh,no honey!The dress is so pretty. Thank you darling. I love it" She says excitedly.
"I am so happy you loved it" Saying this I kiss on her cheek and go to my room.
When I was about to lock the room Tyler appears in front of me,pushes the door aggressively,comes in and locks the door behind. I fear his actions,he raises his hand and SMACK! He slaps me and I fall hard on the ground. I don't know why he just did that and now I even fear asking him what's wrong.
By the time I was realising what just happened he sits on the floor beside me clutches my hair and asks,"Whom were you so busy with? Didn't I tell you to come home early? Did you already forget last week? Or do you want more of it? Answer me you cunning bitch.
"I….I was buying...buying" I began to tell him why I was late and he interrupts me saying,"Keep your lies to yourself. Where did the money to buy your mom a dress come from? Have you forgotten that you have to pay my house bills as well? Tell me"
"I bought her that dress from the bonus I got today. I got a watch for you as well" I replied to him while standing up and reaching for the bag and I show him the watch.
"An apple watch? Really?" He says excitedly. I sigh in relief that he has like the watch and say ,"This is why I got late today. I am really sorry. Next time I won't be late"
"Oh,baby thank you so much for the watch and I am really sorry. I hit you because I was worried for you darling. I hope you understand." He says with an innocent face as if he wasn't the one who slapped me a minute ago.
"Yeah I do understand. Please wait for me in the living area. I will just take a quick shower be back" I tell him.
"Yeah sure baby." He says and gives me a quick kiss on my lips and leaves.
I lock the door,run into the bathroom,turn on the shower and cry my heart out. I pity myself for having such a boyfriend,but I have to live with it anyways. I can't tell about this to my mom because my mom loves him and besides I don't want to add any troubles to her life. Tyler is a nice guy. I love him and he was there when my father died and has helped me to cope up with it and was always there for my mom,So technically,I owe him.
Tyler POV
I was sitting in Pia's living room when she appeared from the front door. I glared at her angrily because she was late today. She looks at me for a second and goes to the kitchen area. I see 2 shopping bags in her hand and wonder what she has brought.
I peek from the living room to see what the mother-daughter duo are talking about but I can't really figure out. I just see Pia giving her mom a bag and in return Grace(Pia's Mother) hugs her daughter teary eyed.
I start fuming in anger because Pia promised me to pay my bills and here she is spending the money to buy gifts for her mother. I message Anna who is my now girlfriend saying,"That Bitch has got some gifts for her melodrama mother. Can't buy you the new dress as she would have no money now".
"I don't want to hear anything. You promised me that dress and I don't really care where you bring the money from" Anna Replies.
I get more angry and see Pia walking towards her room,I follow her and reach her room. She was about to close the room when I pushed the door and locked the door behind. She was shocked to see me in an angry mood and probably was wondering what she had done this time when I slapped her hard and she fell down.
I think women need to be reminded where they belong and where they stand from time to time. So,I had the right to hit her because I was her boyfriend. Duh? Besides I warned her last week to not come home late otherwise she would have to face the consequences and here she was facing them. I start asking her questions about her whereabouts and the gifts she bought for her mother.
She starts talking and while giving me an explanation for why she was late she handed me a bag and told me she bought me an ape watch. I gasped and looked at the iWatch in shock. I then,feel I deserve it because I have done so much for Pia and her mother that an apple watch is nothing close to what I deserve. I know I don't have to thank her for this but I still thanked her,gave a quick kiss on her lips and left her room as she had to take shower.
I sit in the living room still looking at the iWatch when Grace appears and looks at the watch and says,"Oh!did Pia buy a gift for you as well?"
"Oh yes Grace. Your daughter is too thoughtful isn't it?" I ask.
"Definitely. Look, she bought me this lovely dress. I just love it." She says with excitement.
"Am sure It will look lovely on you. Besides you are the most beautiful women and this dress will be honoured if you wear it" I say while exaggerating and sugar coating.
"Oh stop it you are just saying it." she blushes saying this and adds "Come dinner is ready".
I sit on the dinner table and message Anna "You won't believe it, this little piece of shit bought me a iWatch"
"OMG!really? That bitch is truly in love with you Ty,Come home soon can't wait to see it and bring dinner for me" Anna replies.
I see Pia coming from her room and quickly slide phone in my pocket. She sits beside me and we all start eating when I ask Pia if we can go out tomorrow to buy some things for our trip on new years?
"I will see,if I can sneak out of the office a little early tomorrow," she says.
"Sure" I reply and continue eating.
"Why aren't you eating properly? Is something wrong dear?" Grace asks.
"Oh,nothing. It's just my part time job isn't really helping me to pay off my bills so I am just tensed." I lie and I am not doing any part time job. I just want money from Pia to buy Anna a dress and that's why I decided to pull off this innocent act.
"Oh,honey! I told you I would pay off your bills until you get a suitable job. Didn't I? So please stop worrying and have dinner properly." Pia says. I knew my innocent face is capable of making people believe even my lies.
"But,Pia till when am I going to just take money from you. I feel ashamed" I continued the act to make her believe me.
"Tyler,You and me are One. So my money is yours. Besides you have supported me a lot and have been there for me so what if you need me now. I am here for you Don't worry babe" She says.
I knew my trick would work. It does every time. I evil smirk and finish my dinner. When Pia and her mom disappear into kitchen I message Anna saying,"Getting you the dress my baby"
"OMG!YOU ARE THE BEST BABE. COME HOME SOON. I LOVE YOU" I smile looking at the reply and ask Grace if she can pack some dinner for me.
"You love my food don't you?" She asks jokingly.
"Absolutely Grace. You cook the best food." I say to her. I actually lie her for that to get the food but it's a win win isn't it?
I take the packed dinner, thank Grace,hug Pia and leave their house to go to mine.
HOPE YOU LIKED THE CHAPTER. ALSO PLEASE SUPPORT ME I NEED IT.
