The following day Emily decided to stay at home and watch TV because she felt she simply wasn't in the mood to see anyone, her mum was rushing to work so she couldn't stay with her. She thought of calling Royal but he was out of service.
I should just spend the day alone myself besides I haven't done that in a while and not only that I need time to think so I just do some laundry and make myself some food while going through TikTok. She thought!
RINGGGG RINGGGGGG RINGGGGGGGG
That's my phone ringing; She thought aloud, I mean who could be calling me now? It's Sean ;
Hey Emi,
Hi Sean, why are you calling me?
What do you mean of course am gonna call you when I didn't see you in school, where are you now, At home can I please come over: Sean said.
Okay. I quickly changed my dress and brushed my hair. Sean arrived in thirty minutes and I welcomed him in.
Emily why weren't you in school today; he asked.
Well nothing much I just wanted to have some thinking and straighten out some thoughts, Sean listen to me, okay, if you find out I hid something from you will you be upset? Well, Emi it depends on what you are hiding.
Emily thought and decided to ask Royal about it first.
Well Sean it's not important so what did you get for me while coming, she nervously said while trying to change the topic oooooh yeah I got some ice cream and an apple on my way here, wow that's nice of you,
So Emily, what about your mum is she at home, he asked;
uh no, she isn't, she probably went out with her girlfriend; I said it out fast before I could even understand what I said and shit, I kinda f**ked up.
Girlfriend or Girlfriends? Sean asked feigning surprise.
Well, Sean I have been meaning to tell you this and don't know how to but my mum is Bi and I don't know how you're gonna take it, to be honest.
.
Sean Pov ;
Emily, she's your mum and has everything right to fall in love with whatever way she wants and she's not a kid remember besides I have a cousin who's gay and understands how you feel, I said to her with her hand in mine.
You do, thanks, Sean.
After that, they both went out on countless dates and Emily was happy, her mum even took time to talk to her and ask her what's the source of her happiness she just shrugged, smiled and left.
Two months later;
The next week was exam week, She met Royal at the gate as they both gisted and went Into the examination hall together, where they both wrote their exams well, coming out of the hall she saw Sean and she ran to meet him and caught up with him.
[ Hey, Sean, been a while since we saw each other last, what's going on and why haven't you called me or returned my text]
[ well Emily, I have been busy with things at home and also exams, I'm not a straight-A student like you so I also have to put some work into my studies if you don't mind] he sounded annoyed
[Sean, relax what's going on, you're acting slightly different and tensed you can talk to me about what's going on right] I sounded worried
[some other time Emily] he said as he walked passed me;
After that day, we didn't see each other and I guessed he was busy.
Sean, called me some days later to apologise
[ Hey Emily, I'm sorry about the way I spoke to you the other day and honestly I didn't mean it, I was just stressed by my dad, he came suddenly for a visit and it has been hectic.]
[ oh, your dad came and you found it a problem to tell me about it and Instead got angry at me???? , My God you got me worried over nothing, so what's the big deal if your dad came uh?] I asked angrily.
[ Emily what's your problem, I took time to come over and explain to you and apologise but only for you to act like a spoilt brat am so disappointed]
Sean, you're taking this the wrong way.... he didn't let me finish before he cut me short,
what wrong way, Emily, uh so you're telling me now that you can't accept my father right? no, that wasn't what I meant, I haven't even seen ur dad before so.
why do you want to see my dad up, do you have a problem with him? I even accepted that your mother was Bisexual before seeing her and now you can't do it for my dad!! you know what, you're just selfish, Emily let's take a break, I'm stressed and I need time to think a whole lot of time good bye.
he didn't even give me a chance to talk before she ended the call, I called Royal on the phone and cried to him, and in a few minutes, he came over.
Royal pov
I rushed over and found Emi crying on her bed silently, I gave her a bear hug and listened as she poured her heart out;
[ Royal, he didn't even give me a chance to talk, he just said all kinds of mean and harsh words together before ending the call on me, he called me a spoilt brat Royal, how could he? he said he loves me, he promised he wasn't gonna ever hurt me,]
she sounded so hurt and cried, and some minutes later she slept off. I used a wet cloth to clean her tears and help her tidy some things up, when I was done, I watched her silently and said to myself knowing fully well she couldn't hear me. I warned you, Emily, I told you that this was gonna be a bad decision and wouldn't end up good and now we can see the result, you get hurt for love. I have all the reasons to think Sean is at fault but for some reasons I don't know, I just can't bring myself to blame him, for all we know maybe something might be going on with him.
