Jennie wake up Zoe said shaking me lightly, it's morning again? Yeah it is and today's Monday.
I'm off to work breakfast is on the table eat it before it's cold. Okay bye I'll leave when I finish breakfast too
Byeee Zoe said and dashed off
I took a quick bath and wore one of her clothes, so Zoe has an extra large gown?
I mumbled trying a black gown on.
Wow it's just my size!
All of this food is for me? This is too much I can't eat half of this
But I didn't wanna piss Zoe off so I stuffed myself until my stomach felt like it's gonna burst
I chugged a bottle of water and wash the dishes. Okay time to go home
I drive home feeling sleepy again, and didn't expect to see Xander haven't left for work
Good morning I said blankly, but he didn't reply.
Where have you been Jennie?
I told you yesterday I went to Zoe's place
And I already told you that I'll sleep there so what's the fuss about?
And you expect me to believe that?
Believe it or not Xander I don't give a damn plus I'm really sleepy.
I said yawning
Excuse me, I walked pass him and headed to the bedroom when he gripped my hand tightly.
What are you doing Xander?
You have to tell me where you've been yesterday. I already told you I went to Zoe's place you can call her for confirmation I said calmly.
Of course I will he said grabbing his phone and dailed Zoe's number it rang for a few seconds before she picked up
Hello Xander? Hi Zoe. What can I do for you? Was Jennie with you yesterday? Yes she was, she spent the entire day with me
Is there any problem? No not at all thanks bye.
I yanked my hand away from his grip and he looked guilty. I'm sorry for not believing you he said looking at my bruised arm
"Like father like son" I muttered
You know what Xander I think it'll be best if we stay apart for now
I can't stay in the same house with you.
What are you saying Jennie? I can't be without you
Well you survived last night when I wasn't with you.
I didn't mean to hurt you I'm so sorry he pleaded
Well apology not accepted and I don't feel like staying with you so I'll just go back to my house I said going to the bedroom
I packed a few stuff and headed to my house
Thank God I own this house else I'll have to go to Zoe's place again
Xander tried to stop me, but I was too mad to listen
I went to my house and was mortified to see what a mess it has become
Gosh this place looks haunted it's looks like it's been abandoned for ages
I called the renovating company and went back to Zoe's place
And was surprised to see her at home, what are you doing at home by this time?
I lied that I was sick. But you aren't sick and today's Monday.
Yeah I'm perfectly fine, I just don't feel like working today
Why are you back here? I explain everything that happened between Xander and I to Zoe and when I she saw my bruised arm she was livid
How dare that prick do this to you? Anyways I'll stay in my house for now
And I'm sure he didn't mean to do that, I said reassuring her
You deserve some space from him, you're eight month pregnant Jennie
You have to stay away from any sort of danger no matter how little it is
And that's why I'm going back to my house.
The renovation should be done by now I said standing up. Wait let me change and we'll go together. Okay be quick
When we arrived they were almost done
Wow your house looks good as new, yeah I know I giggled
"The house was a gift from my parent on my 20th birthday."
We're done ma'am a middle aged man came to inform me
Okay I'll wire the money to you now
Thanks ma'am and please patronize us again I'll surely do bye
We entered and was amazed.
These guys did a fab job Zoe said going around the house
Yeah we have a lot of things to do Zoe like stocking the fridge and setting the bedroom
I'll do most of it, you're almost due and I can't let you go through any stress
"Okay let's go to the mall"
We bought lots of stuff and clothes too. We spent two hours in the mall
And when we were finally done Zoe was carrying four bags and I carried one too
We arrived home by 5pm and stocked the fridge. Zoe helped me rearranged my wardrobe
"I think I'm gonna sleep here tonight".
Why? You're not going to work tommorow?
I requested to use all my pending day offs this week.
So I'll return to work next week
So you lied that you're sick today and the rest of the week is your day off?
Anyways congratulations, I'll have someone to talk
