HEY PUMPKIN

EPISODE SEVENTEEN

I was wide awake till Six o'clock in the morning, thinking about what happened. I still haven't gotten over it all.

Jason been deceiving me all this time; and to think my own cousin, Tony has been an accomplice to his lie all the while.

O Earth! How cruel can you be? Thou hath turned a brother against a sister.....

I wonder if Tina was in on this too. I suspect Mary Joy to be an accessory to this deceit. Neh.... I ain't calling them. They ain't seen the last of me.

Eight o'clock in the morning, I'm awake! Who am I even kidding? I didn't sleep at all.

I walked to the mirror. Standing and looking at the awful reflection of myself feeling defeated, with a sleepless prove of dark circles, bulgy eyes and pale face.

I felt a sharp pain at my lower abdomen. The blade of betrayal cut into my stomach too? I sighed, went and sat on the bed.

Yet the pain continued. It was intense and electrifying.

Probably because I didn't eat anything last night, that's the reason for this pain.

I decided to go take my bath before going to the kitchen, cos I don't want Sara or dad seeing me this miserable. I stood up, only to find out that the side I sat on be flooded with blood.

It's this fucking battle between my insensitive uterus and and die hard ovaries again. Why now? Can't you at least have compassion on my already shattered heart; knowing that without this heart, they will become putrefied. Dumb dumbs.

I sighed and walked into the bathroom. I really needed to shower.

I cleaned myself after I was done washing. I wouldn't say I'm lucky, I'm wise to have bought extra sanitary pads the last time I went shopping. So, I wasn't caught off guard.

I ain't gonna stay in this home today. Not ready for any unnecessary sympathy.

I put on my spring green Henley neck tunic top, and my black leggings. My feet was extra comfortable in my leather espadrille sandals.

It was difficult trying to fit all these hair's in three bands, but I succeeded with the cutest bun hawk style I ever seen on my hair.

Since I'm not going on a date or visiting anyone for any romantic reason, I decided to flaunt my God-given natural beauty today.

For the reason of the discomfort of going out without a bag, I didn't fail to bring along my black micro bag. Off course, that's where my cash and my phone gonna stay.

I slowly walked to the living room, as if expecting someone there (you know who).

I sighed and walked through the door, after seeing my expectation unachieved. I stood at the porch for a while, before plugging in my earphone to my phone and putting it on my ears.

I needed to set this day differently, so I played John Denver's take me home.

I knocked the road as I walked with the song's beat. My volume so high, and take me home be on repeat.

I walked to the mini market three blocks from home and bought me some nice flowers. I took a cab to town cemetery and waltzed in to take me home.

Been long I been here. I sat by mom's grave, and decorated it with them flowers.

Then I removed my earphones from my ear and phone and, played my I need you. I sang along with it, till it ended.
