Dreaded Love

Chapter Six

"No you can't" I replied and walked out of the room.How the hell will I survive in this house with only him.He is so rude and demanding.
The next morning when I woke up,I finished my house chores and prepared some food.Eric came downstairs early that morning.
I was watching movie when he came"Soultie,please you need to clean up my room"He said from my back
"Okay"This is the first time he has used please when demanding something by the way.
I quickly cleaned his room and left.Eric was sitting at exactly where I sat before leaving.I walked past him and entered my room.He wasn't saying a word to me and I'm used to that by the way.I forgot to call my friend and ask about our school's murder issues.
"Hello,Soultie"she shouted into the phone.Her name is Lizzy."Hello dear,how are you doing??I heard there was a murder in our school yesterday."
"Yeah there was.But I don't think the investigations will end now"We talked for sometime and I hanged up .
"Soultieeee???"I heard Eric shouting from downstairs.I quickly descended the stairs and saw him holding the telephone.
When he saw me, he frown."Sit down!!"He commanded.

I sat down quietly."Soultie I understand you're pretty but it doesn't mean you need to get carried away with it."
I'm confused.What is he trying to say??I opened my mouth to talk but he signaled me to keep quiet.He continued looking at me straight in the eye.
"If you think I'm not handsome enough for you,I understand that.Yesterday,you expressed your love for me and I was confused.Soultie,you're too beautiful to date that asshole!!"
I looked at him."Which asshole are you talking about??"
"That school bully that ure dating.Do you think he is perfect for you??
"Eric,I'm not dating him.He has been pesturing me but ive not accepted him"
"Then how come he called our house number this morning??
"I don't know "I replied.He looked at me so deep in the eye.
