TAKE ME HOME
Abigail checked her time again it was 9:30 p.m. Ace was home already and she was planning on surprising him, Abi was running a program which was going to last for about 3 years and 1 year was already up as she was in the mid term for the second year.
Ace has been her fiance and was probably going to propose this year as wished by Abigail who was so eager looking forward for it, she knew Ace was thinking she must have gone to bed early since cold weather in Gregor city was like a sleeping dose to her.
She packed her car far from his block so as not to alert him, she applied her lipstick again looking at the small mirror she held why fixing some strands of her hair in other to look more presentable "good" she muttered stepping out of a car, locking the car behind her she gave one last stare at the content of the things she bought in her gift bag for her sweetheart, flashing a beautiful smile she headed to his block, fishing the spare key into the keyhole she silently opened the door, peeped in to be sure he wasn't anywhere close to the living room she entered closing the door quietly behind her, she noticed the TV was on and few packets of pizza laid open on the table close to the cushion, she kindly closed the packet and made her way to his room when she saw a g string pants on the floor, taking it up she knew it wasn't her own and it's been up to a month she came to his place, so who owned it? Is Ace cheating on her? She asked herself is this true or was it a dream pushing the door knob what she saw was heart shattering she staggered backwards as hot tears boiled beneath eyes, her temperature dropped to 20° c and death threatened to stop her heart from beating.
Ace!!! She exclaimed causing her heart to beat thrice a second. Ace jumped up to his surprise ,Abigail was standing two steps away from the door.
' Who is she? Is sweet muffled voice broke the ice
" Ace wh..ats the meaning of what just happened now?" Abigail asked holding herself as her tears feel like a heavy rain.
" Abi...what are you doing here" he asks unremorsefully as his eyes told her that she just disturbed him from the sweet fruit he was devouring.
" I don't get, Ace you're cheating on mere" she dragged as tears threatened to pour out she stammered as she lost her voice, her world was falling apart.
Since you're here lemme introduce you to my 'engaged fiancee' he emphasized as he paused to catch his breath " Gia meet my friend Abigail" he said helping her to rise from the bed.
" Hi Abigail am GIA" she flashed a wicked smile as she leaned on Ace's shoulder " "have heard a lot about you guess what your time is up you should be thanking me I gave you much time to flirt with my fiance now get out of my sight before I throw you out of this place b****" Abigail stared at them at this point in time running was the only dose that could save her now, her heart shattered into pieces even one who knows how to mend glasses couldn't mend hers not for a year.
She loved Ace so much that she sacrificed her happiness to make him happy, she trusted him so much that she became a fool and this was all she could get in return, is face slapping incident that has finally destroyed her heart. She couldn't even imagine the time she spent both under the rain and sun, the good and the bad times, she gave her virginity to him and this was all he could give her in return " this this this this this this" she muttered as she fell on her knees. Even the heavens knows she gave Ace what no woman could ever give so easily, she sobbed till her tears became a river and even the angels wailed on her behalf to make the scene more interesting the weather changed and it became so fierce that is started raining hardly even the roof of Ace's house was being punched in pain.
"Abigail or whatever you call yourself you're disturbing the peace of this house with your so-called crocodile tears do us a favor and leave he was about spanking my ass" Gia added rising to her feet as she banged the door at Abi's face.
Rising to her feet shakingly so dropped the gift bag and headed out it was like there was no oxygen in his house again, stepping outside she ran out forgetting she came with her car, her sobs intensify to scream and wails everything made sense to her from the very first day he met her, how was she not supposed to know when Love seem like a blindfold to her. The raindrops were like a soothing music to her ears, walking slowly in the cold lonely Street her phone kept vibrating non-stop suddenly a car screeched in front of her almost knocking her out, Abigail flinched in fear as she lost her composure and fell to the ground.
It's been a long day for Eddie as he spent most of his time in rehearsing for his new song, he barely took a break nor eat as his schedule for the day was on his neck, he couldn't just bypass his meetings because they are all going to heap on him the following day. He needed to get home he longed for rest he initially wanted to take the VX road which was going to take 10 minutes to get to his place but he decided against it as he didn't want to bump into any paparazzi. Taking the lawns road which was approximately 20 minutes to get to his place he was on full speed as many thoughts run across his head and then under the heavy rainfall he saw a ghost maybe a woman walking on the lonely Street with her hairs scattered around her face looking lost and dead may be, at first he thought she must have seen his flashlight from afar but no maybe she was blind he steps on the brakes quickly before the car came to a stop he jumped out from his car and run towards the fearful woman who laid on the ground helplessly.
"Hello Ms are you okay" he asked checking to see if she had any serious injury fear was written all over his face " is she dead" he asked himself as he checked her pulse and thankfully her pulse was beating except for the fact it was slow.
"Ms can you hear me" he called that again helping her up, her eyes opened weakly as all she could see was a blurred face " take me home" she muttered on his arms.
