I managed to set the food on the stool then I raised his head as he picked the spoon, he took a few bites then he looked at me
"Ain't you gonna eat" he asked "no, am not hungry" I replied. He took a spoonful and waved it to my mouth for me to open up, I took a bit he feed me a few more times before he pac5 the plates and put them into the trash bin, he looked at my lips then back to the necklace he gave me, he brought his lips closer to mine just as he was about to kiss me, I covered my lips with my palm causing his lips to brush against them.
I really want to stop this game preston is playing with me, even if am feeling anything for him am just assuming cause he can never be mine, I really just want to accept my fate that we were never meant to be, I don't want to be close to him again, cause the more I get closer to him the more I fall for him, I don't want that to happen again. After the one and half year maid contract I want to go really far away from him, maybe or just maybe falling in love was not for someone like me"I taught as I looked at his confused eyes, I removed my hand from my lips then I stick to my side again ignoring his eyes as I put my earned into my ear.
He reached for my hand but I pulled away, he removed the pud from my ear "jollie" he called softly, u had a huge urge to look at him but no I won't
"Am very sorry if I offended you, I promise I won't do it again" he said now why is he pleading not like he did something bad.
It's just that I can't go on like this what chole told me kept resounding in my ears over and over againyou're just a fling to pass the time with after he uses you he would dump you, do you even think he can end up with someone like you, you're just a low class hiding under the wings of iris and westly. Yeah and before I forget am inviting you to our wedding my his mom already set our wedding for us, they are planning on us getting married, do you think he can end yo with you, you're just a low class hiding under the wings of iris and westly.
"Yeah, she's 100% correct, I looked at him " you didn't do anything I just want to be alone for a while am thinking about something "I said as I faced the window.
The ride was damn quite, jollie what's wrong with you" I asked myself "maybe this is the best way" u said back to myself with a sigh. Soon enough we got back home, I came bout first as I rolled our bags inside then I settled for something to make, am gonna move out tomorrow, because I don't want situation whereby Preston's parents meet me here what am I gonna tell them since I already know about the marriage and am very sure chole's gonna tell then since she was angry earlier. I don't want to get into any trouble I don't want to be doomed because mom wouldn't be happy if she gets involved.
"PRESTON'S POV"
Mom please don't come I said into the phone "why can't I come to your house, have been there lots of times why now" she asked
"Mom not now okay am trying to clear something up" I said trying to convince her "fine" she said and ended the call.
Phew I breathed out, mom's the last person I want to let know about jollie, and I still don't understand why Jolie's giving me cold shoulders. I don't want to lose her at all, I just don't want to let anything happen to her. I called westly immediately.
"Mom wants to come over, and jollie she's not feeling too well" I said into the phone.
"What did you tell her" he asked
"I told her she shouldn't come that I am taking care of something" I replied.
"Okay don't worry I'll take care of it" he said "wait dude how's jollie" he asked
"West, I really don't know like she's been giving me cold shoulders lately, like really cold, she's like I don't even understand what's going on again" I said really confused
"Did you offend her in anyway or did you say anything bad to her" he asked
"I really don't know but I even tried apologizing to her, she said I didn't do anything that she was just thinking about something" I replied
"Prest, all I can tell you is that if you really love that girl you have to fight to keep her course she's loosing her courage, she's been looking down on herself she's thinking maybe because she's came from a poor background and she's not in your class. I overheard chole telling her all sorts of meanful why you can never be with her and so on but dude you didn't tell me your mom is planning on getting you married with chole" he said
"First I don't really care about her background or what ever class, I love her and don't want to lose her am running out of options and that is gross eww no am not getting married I already call it off chole isn't really my type of girl, don't worry I'll call you back I want to check on something real quick"I said as I ended the call.
I came out of my room, am thinking she would be in her room. I knocked on her door but no replies. I checked the kitchen and there she was making dinner, even though she's avoiding me she still cares about me, I walked towards her she was standing close to the counter.
I trapped her with my hands on top of the counter and she was in the middle, she dropped the knife she was holding.
" what are you cooking"I asked bringing my face close to hers but she didn't still say anything.
"Did I do something bad you can tell me if I did" I said again
"Sir please am in an hurry I need to finish this on time and get home" she replied
"I don't understand but this is home where are you going to" I asked, am starting to understand what westly was telling me, I removed my hand and turned her to face me
"If I tell you to stay would you" I asked but she still didn't say a word
"Please can you stay with me tonight" I asked even without getting a response I walked away, because I knew she was gonna say no or give an excuse, how much it hurts.
I went to the dinning to sit, it looks like my whole world is crumbling right in front of me, am damn confused seems like I have been leaving this maths puzzle for just too long, it's time to finally get the answer to it"I said to myself.
"JOLIE'S POV"
"If I tell you to stay would you" he asked but left sooner than I wanted to respond maybe he's hurt or maybe he's just acting so I won't feel bad, I hasten my cooking. I met him on the dinning table with his head rest on it, I placed the food gently on the table but he still didn't move, I dished his own out.
"Sir,your food is ready I said standing by his side, he raised his head. He took his spoon and began to eat, he finished the whole quantity, he's really hungry. Then he picked a strawberry from the fruit stand, he really likes strawberries.
" come "he gasture with his hands I come closer to him, he stood up from the chair and made me sit on the table, I did as he said then he put the strawberry into his mouth holding it firmly, he put his hands on both my side's. He packed his hair without my concept pressed the strawberry into my mouth, the taste filled my mouth, I opened my mouth gradually to accept the taste of it, he ate the whole thing in my mouth, after which he sucked into my lower lip taking the whole sweetness out of it, he nibbled on my tongue as he sucked into me, I tried to support myself so I wouldn't fall, my hands which were by my side as pillars moved on its own accord towards his hair totally losing the band on it, my legs wrapped around him in a firm grip, he kissed me slowly so that I could at least breath but I dipped my fingers dipper into his hair so he continued with the pace.
Gosh I really miss him, it felt like my heart was about to burst, it feels like I was letting out my whole emotions into the kiss am really hurt I don't want this to happen to me but it's already happening.
" no I need to stop"I said in my head, I opened my eyes as I removed my hands from his hair and pushed him away from me, I cleaned my mouth with the back of my hand as I came down from the table, his eyes were on me even if he's hurt but not as much as I am. I really don't want to let him go but I have no right since he isn't mine and can never be mine.
I packed the plates he was still standing there looking really shocked, I avoided him every single bit, I went to my room picked few of my things, he was already at the door when I came out, I walked towards the door looking straight.
"Jollie please don't leave" he said "am not leaving I just want to go to iris for the night but I promise to be here as early as I can tomorrow" I said as I opened the doors.
I already told iris to come pick me up since I won't see any cab around since it's already late, the car was already waiting outside, I opened the door and entered iris was sitting at the back of the car as soon as I was fully sitted my tears dropped, I don't know why am crying u couldn't cry when I was in the house now why am I crying when I just left the house.
"Did you have a fight with him" she asked "no" I shaked my head.
"I don't want to lose him but it feels like I have already lost him" I said sobbing
"It's okay" she said trying to console me.
"No it's not, he took my first kiss and I wanted it to be for someone I really love and yeah I did love him, but he doesn't feel same way I do it hurts so bad" I said crying real bad
"Wait how did you know he was the one" iris asked surprised
"I saw the video in your phone, but now it hurts do bad seeing my first love walking away from me it hurts so bad, it hurts like nails, he's getting married to chole, not like I could do anything about it" I broke down in tears again.
I already dreamt of someone who would love me more than I do to myself, no but it's turning the other way round, I really do love him but he doesn't am just a fling and she's right all along we ain't I the same class, but it's hard to believe that he's getting married soon "I said as I dropped my head on my palm.
She patted my back it felt like I was being used all this while, why didn't this happen when I haven't falling for him completely.
" IRIS POV"
My phone beeped preston, he hasn't called or texted me for once so what happened I just hope jollie is okay, ever since the chole thing she hasn't been the same again and am fricking worried.
"Are you taking jollie home" it reads.. ..
