286: THE CRAP


    ARIEL’S POV


    Laura stood in my way, giving me the dark face, an expression that wasn’t pleasant to me one bit. And


    what could I do in return? Nothing. No words spoken, and nothing uttered.


    It was clear that her anger had now brought this decision upon her, her head was filled with dusk. I


    could only wish the best for her, to change that mindset of hers. But with the way things were going, it


    was quite clear that we would soon be parting ways.


    And I never wanted any of that. This wasn’t my intention in the first ce. She saved me, and I wanted


    to give her all the respect. If it wasn’t for this woman, I wouldn’t be standing right here. She helped me,


    bringing my soul back to life, when I thought all hope was gone.


    The n for vengeance was a decision which was agreed by the both of us. But back then, I wasn’t


    thinking straight. Now I kept on asking myself, what the hell was wrong with me at that moment, that I


    was just a fool to easily believe some goddamn lie, false words, piece of crap?


    Lie was s


    my fault. Day and night, I kept on filling her head with bitterness concerning Luke. Now look a the


    situation at the moment. Take a good look at it. Things were fucked up. Divisions were about to take


    ce. I could sense the malice, anger, rancor, all creeping in. And I genuinely wanted none of this to


    happen between us. But we’d just have to see


    what the future has installed for the both of us.


    “Laura, I get the fact that you’re angry at me. But you’re not actually going to let this ruin this business


    deal, are you?”


    “Nothing is going to be ruined, Ariel. I will go for that meeting.”


    “Don’t you want me to help you? Like,e along? Trust me, I’m good at these things.”


    “You don’t have to worry about anything. I’ll handle things all by myself.”


    was expecting


    I couldn’t believe what she was saying now. Well, I did believe because I was something’s like this. But


    come on, she couldn’t just make rash decisions. I believed I could help if I was present there. Perhaps I


    could bring new suggestions that would make the people want to work with her, that would make them


    want to team with herpany. This was something I was good at, all thanks to the Vitality Group for


    giving me great opportunities. I had full confidence in myself in this one.


    “That’s it? You’re just going to start a dispute, now?” Perhaps my question could at least


    206 THE CRAP


    talk some senses into her.


    “The dispute already began when you went back to that man, disobeying me.”


    “I’ve already told you everything. I really appreciate everything you did for me.”


    “No, you don’t. Because if you do, you won’t be following through with this nonsense.


    “I can see how this anger has blinded your heart. You’re not the sweet Laura I used to know.


    “And you’re not the Ariel I know.”

    “I’m only standing up for what is right. For my job.”


    “Then good luck standing up for that. Because from now on, I do not want you handling anything


    rting to my business.”


    She stormed off after that My face had transfigured, the joy had been disappeared. First, Luke hang up


    on me. Now this? Sometimes, these moments were really terrible.


    LUKE’S POV


    “What was that for?” I asked my great–aunt fiercely. She hade to my room, this early to


    do shit, huh?


    This woman so so annoying, like so so annoying. Harsh, cruel, not giving a fuck, I totally understood


    that. Same characteristics with my grandfather, but the thing here was that this old woman was fucked


    up in the head, doing things that made this anger for herpound more and more.


    The respect had disappeared. It was nothing but hatred for her around here. When peace. was


    something I wanted, this woman craved chaos. She thirst for disunity, and that was why she had


    returned.


    She was like a good–for–nothing witch. Unfolding to cause trouble, materialize to leave souls broken,


    terminate the happiness, and make the people ufortable.


    I was just letting her live in this house because there was still some little respect left for her. Well,


    something like that. Should have thrown her old dirty ass out but that dark Luke Reynold was no more.


    Changed to a certain degree. Transformed in different ways, the vile section had been thrown out, lifted


    out. Gates of love were opened. Now I had this passion, mix of emotions, morepassionate. This


    was me looking forward to the future. There were days ahead, and this canon ball standing in front of


    me wasn’t going to make those. moments look like hell.


    204 THE CRAP


    Could you believe the motherfucking nerve? The audacity, the boldness this woman had, to snatch my


    phone from me just when I was making an important call. A lovely call with Ariel, but this great–aunt of


    mine really had her way of doing things, and shit was carried out when she ended the call. Like, she


    hanged up on Ariel, and I could just imagine what my wife was thinking at the moment.


    “Give it back,” I stated coldly, with my voice above a whisper, a bitter one. Intense


    bitterness, and if any one asks me, I wouldy more emphasis on that. Because this great-


    aunt of mine could make me do crazy things. Things that I didn’t thought I would do.


    Starting now.


    “Who were you talking to? That slut?”


    “That is none of your business,” I retorted.


    And like seriously, it wasn’t. If I was talking to a whore or not. If I was discussing with at ghost on the


    phone or not. None of that was her goddamn business.


    And cut the crap! What the hell was she doing at my room? Shouldn’t even be asking that, because it


    was obvious. It was really clear. Like, crystal clear.


    The ancient serpent who happened to be present at the time of Adam and Eve, had shown. up. Shown


    up to do what now? To send the surge of pain right in me. To insert the venom


    and to let it spread across my body.


    She wanted the mood ruined. So guess what? It was already ruined the moment she stepped foot


    inside this room. Not to talk of the fact that she went ahead to snatch my phone from me, putting an


    end to an important call. Because I nned on apologizing to Ariel aboutst night. Now this canon ball


    was about to make things dyed.


    “That is actually my business, Luke. Because as you can see, this is my house.” A fake smile spread


    across her face. She tried aeback. Quite fucked up. And with her words,


    I couldn’t help but chuckle.


    “Why do you keep on saying that? Like,e on. You don’t have to keep on lying to yourself every


    single day. Your thoughts are worthless, and your threats are useless.”


    “Oh Luke, Aren’t you just so full of yourself?”


    “No, no, don’t be misled. Those words should be thrown at you. And I don’t have to give, you an


    exnation, but if you want one, I’ll be really really d to spit it all out.”


    “This generation is fucked up. It’s the youngsters acting like the


    know it all.”


    “It’s not that. It’s just that you people are the ones doing shit to yourselves. And yes, we


    know it all because we worked hard for this. You just popped out of nowhere and came to


    do shit”


    “Enough!” She snarled, pping me in the face.
