Chapter Broken

“ martins, adonis sent me a message” Vanessa said showing me her phone, “ he's calling now, should i pick it up?” She said, it's been a week and he hasn't called or texted, and I made sure I had kept him away from every device, while trying to keep her busy.

I wouldn't say she hasn't been the happiest, but it helped, finding a hobby, and i literally have to carry her everywhere i go, Sinclair isn't aware of that, but her daughter takes illegal drug, she shouldn't, but we had a deal, she helps me out, in making her mother happy, while I help cure the stupid addiction of lust, over a man she shouldn't lust after.

“ pick it up” i said, she smiled nervously, i could tell, she still wants to talk to him, she's dying to, love doesn't fade easily , “ hey” she said in a weak tone.

‘’ babe, how have you been, sorry i haven't called in a week, { a week and two days} , yes a week and two days” he said, after a side whisper corrected him, i could see pain dawdling on her face, “ its fine” she lied.

“ You know dad, he had me engaged in work , you know how our parents are , I just want him to see me for who I am, maybe after this, I could finally put a ring on your finger , making you my wife, like we always wanted” he said.

Edit

I could tell he was lying, looking at vanessa a teardrop which had been restraint for a while drops on her phone scream,splashing to different droplet, “ yes babe” she choked slight, “ yes, i know you will understand, that's why i love you so much, i would be back in a week,

He paused

“ in two weeks “ he added ,she finally looks at me, “ kill it” i whispered, she nodded then wipes her tears with her palm, “ vanessa whos there with you” he said, she's ends the call immediately, falling on her coven like bed,

“ well that explains everything” i said pulling her in, so she lays on my thighs , she sobbed even more, mumbling on my thighs, my heart ached , i wouldn't say i feel what she feels, but all i feel and want to do is avenge her pain right now.

“ tell me everything about them” i said pulling her up, i need to treat him the ghetto way, he deserves to face all the pain he caused her up till now, “ don't tell anyone, by anyone i mean mom” she said, well your mother should know your boyfriend” i said,

“ he's not just any boy, adonis, is moms enemy” she said cleaning her eyes, “ then why date him, if you know your mom wouldn't agree of it”,

“ i don't know,i just love him” she said picking her fingers,

Women

“ well, adonis and i went to the same school, there we met, i liked him, though mom had warned i shouldn't get close to him, but what does she know about love , “ she said rolling her eyes,

“ listening”

“ we started dating in junior high, and after that, was able to get to the same school, but adonis never bothered being full time college student like me, he went for part time, far from where we decided, earlier in our life, after that, i have been getting reports that, he has almost all the girls on his bed, but he.. He never accept them, he came to pay a visit in school, then a pic of him boning my girlfriend was released , for everyone to see”

She said, all this i am seeing are signs enough for her to leave,

“ And why didn’t you leave then, let me guess, you love him, see vanessa, you are suffering emotional pain and low self esteem for so long, you didn't even realize you are in a mess, you need fresh air, it's hard, but i can assure you, there men out there, who would give anything to have a woman, by his side, just a woman, now having you the would be a miracle” she smiles then pulls me in for a hug.

“ thank you so much ” she replied, them wiped her tears,

“ now do me a favour, deleted he silly memories you had of him, it's the weirdest thing you need right now” i said she smiles, then takes her phone deleting pictures,

“ now give me more details about him, i would like to know why he would do that, he should tell me himself , maybe with a broken mouth”

“ don't hurt him, not too much” she said.

“ i will try not to kill him” i said, she smiles,

“ he's a hansley” he said , making my heart skips a beat,

“ like hansley?, the same people working against your family?” i said, she bends her head in embarrassment,

“ yes, the same, see it's not like that, adonis and i, thought we could bring our parents, maybe feel what having both father and mother in our life would be … perfect”

“ I didn’t know what having both of them feels like, not even one , see Vanessa those people hired a blogger to tanish your mother image when we went to Baldwin , what makes you feel they would want to be one?.”

“ it happens”

“ they are the competition, they don't change, and miracles doesn't just happen”

, she starts crying again, “ hey see nessa , i know it hurts, but coming to think it, only you had really put effort in making this dream come through, do you want to keep pushing, or just leave” she keeps sorbing

“ you know what, clean those tears, let's go fishing” i said clueless of what and how to catch a real fish”

“ i don't want to “

“ yes i don't know how to either so thank you, “

“ Well we have only today to stay at home, Why Don't we find something fun to do with our time, tomorrow, we could be working at a brand new restaurant” she cleans her eyes.

“ i don't feel like doing anything, everyone should just leave” she yells

“ give me my coke , it’s a week already, our deal is over”

She yells

“ i lost it”

“ i would get another just leave my room “

“ ok’

Taking my phone I searched for adonis hansley , the bastard, his picture was all over the internet, for crying out loud, this dude doesn't look as bad as vanessa, he looks perfect, such narcissism, truly beauty is a shield to the heart.

He would pay for this, and that's a promise.
