ALWAYS AND FOREVER

Kathy Pov

“Hmm, sorry to ask but how old are you again?”

I asked, feeling the need to know.

“Twenty-eight, why do you want to know my age?”

She was older than I thought, she must be aging backward because I thought she would be around my age or at least twenty-five, she had great genes.

“Hmm, I asked because you are acting like a teenager blinded by love, in your case a past love, I will be the one to break it to you that what you and Cross had was in the past and I am his present and future, the earlier you know that, the better for you,”

I said, she didn’t need to know that I plan on divorcing Cross, I just wanted her to feel exactly how she wants me to feel.

“Cross and I are so present bitch and you are the only reason we can’t be together, he was so responsive to my touch that if your thoughts hasn’t crossed his mind then we would have happened and we have always been good in bed together and because of you that didn’t happen,”

She accused, but I could only make out a few of the things she was saying all that went through my mind was that it didn’t happen, Cross hadn’t been lying, they kissed but he didn’t sleep with her.

“So nothing ever happened with you both aside from the kissing? I should have known,”

“What do you mean? It’s happened bitch, we were so good together, he felt so right,”

She said changing her words and I concluded that she was indeed childish and that she wasn’t as woke as she looked. I had an upper hand on her and she wasn’t even a match for me, I laughed to myself, finding out that nothing happened with them did feel nice but it doesn’t change the fact that Cross almost slept with her, so I wasn’t going to take it lightly with, I was going to make him suffer.

“Why are you smiling to yourself? Are you insane?”

She asked and I laughed out loud.

“I guess so, so is this all you have to say to me? I need to head home, my husband has been calling nonstop,”

I said showing her my phone, she frowned which made me happy, I don’t know why it did, but I felt good, she had come here to say things to me that would hurt me but the tables turned and I know she wasn’t expecting it, I sent a thank you to whatever spirit possessed me to talk as calmly as I did which had thrown her off balance.

“Cross and I almost had a child together, but I lost my baby, unfortunately,”

She revealed, okay that got me, when did she mean? Was it in the past or was it recent, I figured if I asked her that she might lie just to get an upper hand and I didn’t want to give her that, it would be better to treat her like it didn’t matter.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“Oh, sorry for your lost,”

I said.

“And do you know what the most painful part of it is?’

“What?

“I found out you are the reason it happened,”

“What do you mean?”

“It happened because of you, you ruined all of my plans, you are the reason my life is so messed up, I never knew who you were but you were already stealing from me, you are the other woman here Cross was mine from the beginning and if you hadn’t come in the picture then all these shit won’t have happened, Cross and I would have been married a long time ago, I had plans but you ruined them all,”

She accused me, and I couldn’t even understand what she was going through, I mean I didn’t even know her this was the first time we are meeting in person so how did I ruin her life? At the same I was confused was a small world because I was beyond confused.

“I don’t know what you are talking about Ginna, I don’t know you before so how did I ruin your life and your plans? When I didn’t even know of your existence until you shows up in New York, please don’t accuse me wrongly,”

“I know what I am saying, so better shut the fuck up, it’s all because of you, you ruined all my plans and I ended up losing my child and my chance at a bright and easy future, I worked hard to get that child but I lost it because of you,”

She was getting more and more aggressive and loud and the people in the cafeteria were beginning to look at us, I didn’t like the attention.

“Ginna, you are creating a scene and I don’t even know what you are talking about, do you mind throwing more like on this? When did I ever make you lose a child?”

I asked, and she looked around, she was about to say something when her phone rang, she ignored it at first but when it continued ringing, she just picked up, the person on the other end might have said something frightening to her cuz she paled before she stood up and hurriedly left, I made to go after her but was stopped by the waiter who demanded pay, before I could pay her, and go aside, she already left, I looked around but didn’t see her.

I wondered who had called her and why she looked so paled and also why she thinks I ruin her life, if course I couldn’t get answers to all these until I see her again, I decided that I will request for us to meet again and texted her while in my car, she didn’t respond so I just drove home hoping that she would, I had a lot of questions that needed answers, I didn’t even know they almost had a child together, I figured it must not be recent going by her saying that I ruined her life before we met, even as I drove home the thoughts were still in my head, I tried to remember if I had met her before by accident when I was younger but nothing came up, I thought if asking Cross about it but at the same time I didn’t want to talk to him, now that I know he didn’t actually sleep with her, I might go easy on him which I didn’t want, if only Ginna would agree to see me before I leave for Arizona, then maybe I would clear my mind about the things she accused me off which were not true, deciding that I will try calling her again when I get home, I drove towards my house with every intends to avoid Cross, even if he didn’t sleep with her, he still messed with her which I couldn’t just forgive like that, it will make me too easy and he might do it again, I was going to hold on to my anger and make him suffer, I decided, when I got home I met him sleeping in the living room and I sneaked passed him and locked myself in my room, sent Ginna a few more text, took a bath and went to bed hoping she will respond before I wake up, I was so tired that I fell alseep as soon as I hit the bed…
