Monae's POV


It was night by the time I finally got home and as I ascended the stairs, my body and feet hurt and my head felt like it was spinning as if I'm drunk from consuming a lot of alcohol but I swear, I didn't touch any when we went out to the restaurant or the club afterwards.

Initially, I thought it was just Rex and I who were going out but after arriving at the restaurant, someone else did, Imo.

I was ready to blast her for being such a bad sissy but all my anger dissolved when I saw her tears face and puffy eyes. She had been crying and when I asked her, she said something about the love of his life rejecting her over and over again. I figured it was Junior since they're going to get married.

Just like always, I comforted her, advising her not to give up in her love and all that shit. Yeah, I was advising her when I couldn't even detect the person I've fallen for is just a playboy. So pathetic of me, ikr!

We dined and they wined, it was fun actually. It was like we were back to being our old selves once again but I knew it was going to last, I had to go back home to that jerk and I wasn't ready either so when they proposed we go clubbing, I immediately jumped to it with glee.

I ended up rubbing shoulders with drunk ass people. It wasn't just the reek of alcohol in the room that made me regret my decision of going with them, the pungent smell of different kinds of cigarettes coupled with shisha and sweet made me want to gag, it took everything in me not to and after an hour or two of being there, I decided it was time I left before I passed out from the nauseating feeling I was having.

That's how come I ended up reeking if alcohol when I didn't even touch a glass, no scratch not, not even a bottle top of it. I badly want to get into my room, take a hot shower and hop into bed but naked, fuck the cold night weather, imma sleep nude. I will make sure to lock the door so no one walks in on me, especially not that perv since he's fond of coming into mine when I'm asleep to satisfy some crazy fantasies of his.

On the bright side, I wouldn't need to wake up early for lectures, I'm on holidays after all those tests I had written else I'll be needing a cup of coffee to awaken me because I'm sure I'll be waking up very late and that coffee might burn me again.

Coffee and burnt. The events of this morning immediately comes to thoughts and the pain in my heart that I've managed all through out today to forget and not pay attention to resurrects itself.

God please rid me of this pain, it's too much. Tears start falling but I wipe them from my face furiously. He doesn't deserve my tears! He doesn't deserve me to cry over him for what he did, he's a playboy and playboys get karma not tears.

All of a sudden and all because I thought of him, the happy mood I came back in vanishes and I'm mad. I angrily walk towards my door and open it then slammed it real hard. The noise that came with it was music to my ears, Michy's room is directly across mine and I hope the noise wakes him up from his sleep, why should he sleep when I'm in this state, huh? He caused it.

"Where did you go?!"

"Wtf!" I screamed, placing my hand on my chest in fright and surprise as I turned around with my chest heaving. This idiot! Why does he have to scare the hell out of me?

I didn't bother darting my eyes around the room to search for who it was, I know that voice too damn well.

After recovering from my initial shock, I rolled my eyes in annoyance and walked to the closet without answering his question. I passed by him sitting on the couch yet in the gross darkness I could see the features of his face contorted in fury as the light from outside illuminated on his face. I smirked in glee, he should have a taste of what I'm feeling like.

I saw him get up from the couch and take angry strides towards me and before I could walk away from him safely into the closet, he yanked my hand from my side, dragging me inside the closet and pinned me against the wall.

"I asked a question Monae and I expect an answer, where the fuck did you go?" He boomed, his facial expression becoming intense than ever.

Fear gripped me not by his furious expression but the harshness and fury laced in his voice, this side of Michy is so foreign to me. What has gotten into him? 

I only shook my head in response, the fear that hand gripped me seized my tongue and I couldn't say anything.

He only tightened his grip on my hands, making me gasp and whimper. He was hurting me yet he didn't seem to see it.

"I asked you a question and I expect you to answer me with your mouth not your head, I'm not deaf!"

He barked once more and I couldn't stand it, "I didn't go anywhere!"

"Don't take me for a fool Monae, I'm asking you again where did you go?"

"I went—out." I stuttered, gulping thickly.

"That isn't an answer.. I know you went out but where?" He asked, bringing his face closer to my face. He held his nose high like he was sniffing before he looked at me in disbelief which switched to a scowl. "You've been drinking haven't you?"

"No." I shook my head vehemently as I looked at him in fear of what he was going to do now that he has sniffed the alcohol on me. "I swear, I didn't take any."

"Don't give me that bullshit... who were you with?!"

"No one." I'm so not going to take Rex's name or Imogen. In this state, I don't know what he can do.

"Do I fucking look stupid to you, huh? Do I? I know you don't drink and you wouldn't be careless to stay out till night and come back home drunk, someone forced you to do it or better say influenced you so who?!"

I should have been glad he trusted me not to drink alcohol but I wasn't, he's so sly. It might be his way of getting me to talk. "What's that?" I asked him as I looked past him, masking my face with terror.

He took the bait to look behind him and that was when I snatched my hand from him, backing away from him. He snapped his head towards me, looking at me in anger. "I can't believe you tricked me!"

I smirked, looking at him up and down. "Two can play this game Michy, you aren't the only one best at it." If he can trick me into catching feelings for him, I also can trick and free myself from his tight grip.

I rub my wrists that are hurting like a bitch, I'm sure to wake up with a bruised wrist tomorrow, all because of this idiot here, I will wake up with a broke heart as well.

"Whatever you mean by that, who were you with?!"

"Why do you care so much for who I was with? Are you my daddy?"

"Answer the damn question!"

"A friend, a male friend to be precise." I don't know why I said that but I did, maybe I wanted a reaction from him, anger or jealousy maybe?

"A friend?"

"Yeah a very special friend, do you have a problem with it?"

"I don't if I didn't bother to ask you about it, why did you go out with him when I asked the driver to come pick you up. Do you know who he is? He could have been a psycho or murderer!"

"Spare me that, don't talk as if you care because you don't and why do you have a problem with it? It isn't like I'm your girlfriend or something besides you already have one that you love so much."

"Wait, are you jealous?"

"Me? Ha, don't make me laugh my ass out Michy," I let out a fake laugh, covering my mouth with my hand as I threw my head back. Damn I was trying so hard to be convincing when in reality I am very jealous. "I am not, not even a tad bit."

I told him and rolled my eyes then walked past him  and huffed but he pulled me back with force that I ended up banging my back on him. The proximity of our closeness was sexually compromising but I couldn't back away from him. The douche tightly circled his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him after banging on him, he closed every possible gap between us that I can feel his skin against mind except our clothes were the barrier.

"One, don't you dare walk out on me when I'm talking to you and two, don't ever try to make me jealous cause tonight it worked perfectly well. You have no idea what I can do to you if it takes the best part of me." He said in a raspy voice, fanning my jawline with his hot breath.

It spread my body with goosebumps and my spine with chills. I felt myself getting hot yes, I wanted to get away from him. I hate that he has this effect on me when I'm not supposed to, he has a girlfriend, that is a better reason why I shouldn't.

"Let go off me!"

"Why huh? You think you can just make me jealous and I'll allow you leave to without quenching the fire you've lit in me?" This time, he whispered every word in an amorous voice and I felt my body slowly succumbing to it.

My heart was thumping so fast in my chest I'm sure he heard it. I was on fire when he peppered slow kisses along my jawline to my neck, I was losing myself and I hated it but loved it all the same.

He has a girlfriend, Nae. You aren't about to play some side chick, you're worth more than that.

My subconscious reminded me, the words jolting me back to my senses that had been stolen by what he was doing.

"Stop!" I shut my eyes and screeched.

He went stiff and reluctantly stopped what he was doing but he didn't let go off me.

"Please let go off me...I beg of you." I muttered to him, hot tears beginning to fall on my cheeks. I don't know why I'm crying right now, I don't know if it's because of the effect he has on me that is forbidden or the fact that he has a girlfriend but still messing with my mind and feelings for him or I just feel like crying because everything is overwhelming.

Michy slowly let go off me, I staggered away from him and sniffed.

"Nae you're—"

"Get out."

"Please, I'm sorry—"

"I said get out!" I hurled at him, turning my back. I run out of the closet into the room, slumping my body on the rugged floor.

I let out the tears I had stored up, wiping my nose with the back of my hand. I'm such a fool for allowing all this happen, if only I hadn't thought so much into his behavior towards me, I wouldn't be lying on the floor today with a broken heart. I wouldn't be yearning for the love of a man who has already been taken and I wouldn't be wishing for all this!

I jerked feeling a hand on me, I knew out of instinct it was Michy. What does he want again? Is hurting me not enough for him. I turned to him with anger blazing in my eyes, I wish I could hate him but I can't. "Stay away from me Mr Michele Krupp! Whatever relation that we shared is broken, leave me alone in peace. I hate you after what you've done to me, I loathe you with every fiber in me!"

I hurled the words at him with venom dripping in them before turning to look away from him.  I didn't have the strength to look at him in the eyes after what I had said. I know he doesn't love me as a lover but as a friend he surely did, I was afraid of seeing the consequences of my words in his eyes.

Though I didn't mean the I hate you part, I had to say it if I want him away from me, far away so these stupid feelings I have for him goes. Loving him is a mistake, a mistake I wish I can erase from my life.

I heard a sharp intake of breath and after some minutes, the door opening. "I'm sorry Nae, I'm sorry for hurting you in the worst possible way. I wish I could turn back the hands of time and undo it but I can't, the only thing I can do is respect your wish and stay away from you. I'll do as you wish, from tonight, I'll never ever come in front of you but you should know this, I meant what I said in the car."

What he said in the car? That he has a girlfriend he loves so much? Oh yeah that, why I'm I not surprised he said that and here he is, blurting out a fake apology to me when he couldn't help but hurt me again.

The door closed softly behind me and I fell back again unto the floor. What he said hurt me, especially the last part but I don't understand why his departure is making my heart ache for him.

It was my wish he left me alone but now I can't take it.

*****************************************
What did Michy say in the car that he said he means? Cause I don't think it's the girlfriend shit but what really drove him to act that way with her?

😩maybe we will find out in the next chapter but how will it resolve this misunderstanding between them?
