Seeing Geoffrey make out with Tamara on his couch tore me to pieces, the one thing I had ever wanted all my life was to be loved and accepted. Why did everyone keep sidelining me? With my parents I was second best and now with Geo I had to be second best again?Yes I was possessive and maybe controlling but all I did I did out of love.
I grabbed the knife as tears fell down my eyes but I couldn’t do anything with it because my hands where shaking so I dropped it and that’s when the two fools noticed me.
“Talia” Was all Geo managed to say
“I guess you are studying right?” I asked before turning to leave. I walked out of the house with the hope that he would run after me, but he didn’t and that broke me to the core. He actually didn’t care that I caught him in the act.
When I got home I went straight to my room, my body shook violently because of the pain I was feeling and my heart was beating faster than usual. I hit the wall in frustration then screamed out as I threw everything on my table. My auntie walked in at that particular moment
“Lia are you okay?”
“Please leave me alone” I yelled at her
“Your hand is bleeding, look at the mess you have made and all this screaming please talk to me” She said trying to hold my hand
“I said leave me alone?” I yelled
“Lia calm down”
“It’s Talia” I yelled pushing her off me.
She fell down and I sprang on top of her, i punched her and started strangling her. She tried freeing herself from my grip but I had more strength, I wanted to strangle the life out of her maybe just maybe I would feel better.
“Lia stop” The maid ran in and pushed me off her.
“Are you trying to kill her?” She yelled as she helped her up.
“Tell her to leave me alone”
With the help of the maid, auntie Helen stood up, her nose was bleeding and she had this scary look in her eyes.
When she walked out, I sat on the bed thinking about what I just did, I had lost all control and if not for that maid, i would have killed her right in my room.
I cleaned up my room and took a bath, maybe I needed to go to the farm as Cleo had sugessted because my anger was getting the better of me.
When I was done bathing, I wanted to bandage my hand but I realised it had completely healed so I got into bed just before I closed my eyes my phone rang, it was Geo calling.
I smiled as I picked up the call because i thought he wanted to apologise.
“What?” I answered
“Hey I am sorry about you saw today, I didn’t mean for you to find out like that”
“Meaning?”
“I love Tamara and she is the woman I want to be with now, I didn’t mean to hurt you but let’s just forget we ever had anything between us”
“Are you dumping me?” I asked my voice almost breaking
“Talia we aren’t compatible this is for the best”
“I love you Geo don’t do this to me”
“Talia I am sorry”
“You are sorry huh? After wasting my time, after making me love you then you bail out on me like that huh?”
“Talia don’t make this harder”
“You know what Geoffrey I will not accept this, you and I will continue to be an item till I say so, so please baby tell Tamara to stay away from you okay or else she won’t like what I will do”
“Are you threatening me?”
“No I am not, this relationship is far from being over , now take a nap I will see you tomorrow at school and you better behave”
“Talia did you even hear what I said?”
“I love you more baby,sleep tight” I responded before cutting the call
The nerve of that guy, who did he think he was, if i couldn’t have him then no one would, I closed my eyes thinking of ways I was going to deal with Tamara the next day.
I woke up the next morning feeling excited, I took a quick bath, wore some blue jeans and a T-shirt. A blackie hoodie and sneakers. I walked out of my room carrying my bag and phone.
I grabbed an apple and walked out. I played loud music as I drove to school and as luck would I have it, I spotted Florence walking towards the restrooms just as I walked in. So I followed her slowly.
As soon as she got in, i followed suit closing the door behind me.
“Tamara”
“Talia”
“So I came to give you a friendly warning, please stay away from Geo” I said calmly
“Why would I do that?” She asked mockingly
“Because he is mine and I hate people who disrespect my things”
“Wonders shall never end” She laughed
“Tamara I am warning you okay?”
“Hey leave me alone” She said
“You will do as I say okay?”
“I am not scared of you Talia okay”
“Fine this is the beginning of war, when I am done with you, you won’t be alive to tell the tale”
“I am ready for war bring it on”
“Great, don’t say i didn’t warn you”
I walked out of the room thinking of ways I wod end her pathetic little life, I would attack her at her weakest, i would make her pay.
“No one disrespects Talia Daniels and lives to to narrate the story” I smiled as I got to class.
