I opened my eyes the next morning to the rays of sunshine coming in through the window. I got up feeling a bit sad, I walked into the bathroom to have my bath. After bathing, I took time to apply my body cream and style my hair. as I remembered Kimberly my heart sank, I felt so bad and hurt. Why would Drey bring his ex girlfriend to live with us, why? I thought to myself as I slowly combed my hair. I didn't want to hear whatever explanation he had yesterday, hearing of Kimberly alone from Cindy was already devastating talk more of seeing her and hearing she would be staying with us. I sighed and picked up my phone to call Shyla. As soon as Shyla picked, I poured out my heart to her and she was like. " Baby girl, You've got to fight for your man". " This is not the time to lock up yourself in your room and cry your eyes out". " This is a time to fight for the man you love". Shyla concluded. " But I'm just so upset Shyla". " I mean why would he bring her here in the first place?". I said. " Have you heard him out?" " No I haven't". I said. " Then hear him out, this is also difficult for him because he is dealing with his Two loves". " believe or not there was a time he loved Kimberly, and maybe still loves her". " all I'm saying is, you have to fight for your man". Shyla said.
After Shyla's call, I felt courageous and determined, I was going to fight for our love, I won't allow someone to show up from no where and come in between I and Drey. I quickly dressed up and went downstairs, I had breakfast and headed to the office. Drey and Kimberley had already left for the office.
As I arrived at the office I went straight to Drey's office. On getting there, I saw Kimberly, she was talking with Drey. As soon as Drey saw me he got up from his seat and walked straight to me. " Hey Ari" he said. " Hey, you wanted to tell me something yesterday" I said. " Yes I did". As we were talking, Kimberley stood up and walked up to us. " Hi Ari, I've heard so much about you" she said smiling. " It's Arielle" I corrected her. " Well I've never heard anything about you " I said as I glared at Drey. " Drey can we talk at the cafeteria?" I said and headed for the door, Drey came after me but was stopped by Kimberly. " Drey we have a lot of work to do" she said and stood right in front of Drey. I could see the way she was flirting with him, and how Drey was struggling to decide who to listen to. I rolled my eyes and walked right up to her. " Drey and I had something very important to discuss" I held on to Drey's hand. " So if you don't mind, excuse us" I said and pulled Drey out of the office.
As soon as we got to the elevator I removed my hand from he's. I wouldn't speak to him. " Ari I'm sorry I'm putting you through this" . " You're sorry!" I yelled as tears streamed down my cheeks. " How could you do this to me Drey, how could you" I cried out bitterly. Drey tried to come close to me but I shifted. " Don't come close" I wept. " Why didn't you mention her, all this while why?. I shouted with tears pouring down my eyes. " I..I don't know" Drey stammered. "I was too scared of loosing you again after I just found you". Drey said.
