-Jade-
As I heard the song end I was relieved with a melancholic aftertaste. I hate how good it felt having his arms around my waist spinning me around in the huge ballroom full of strangers. Usually, my introverted self would never do a thing like this, I would nicely turn his invitation down and disappear into a dark hidden corner where nobody can see me, I can't even explain why I didn't do this time. But I have to give Jay one thing he is an incredible dancer.
I slightly pull myself away from his strong arms around me
"thank you again"
I softly smile and wave disappear into the crowd behind me shooting him a last glance I see him waving back.
everywhere you turn you see either people chatting and sipping their champagne or couples making out like crazy, enjoying their lives on the dance floor.
'' AH, mom there-'' I hold my hands in front of my mouth making sure each word that shoots up to my brain stays unspoken.
I expected everything but that of what I see in front of myself right now. My mom sitting on the counter being in the middle of a steamy makeout session with James Sinclair one of the most successful CEOs.
The two straps of her dress hanging down her arms now, and his left hand traveling up her thigh making its way under her dress.
I take a step back and do a quick turn on my way to the entrance hall. hopefully, they have been so caught up with each other so they didn't notice me.
''this evening was too fucking much'' I complain to Ari which I called immediately after I got out. And honestly, I was just too scared to be in the dark streets alone after what happened because now there's no one in sight to save me.
and added to that I needed to tell someone what I saw or I would go crazy before I would even arrive at home.
''so I got this right the tongue of this Sinclair guy down your mum's throat?'' she said in a confused and surprised tone ''But honestly he seems like a nice guy, he comes to our shop for groceries sometimes, I am happy for your mom maybe she finally found someone?''
My mind went blank at this point I never expected my mom to find someone again after my dad, it's not that I am not happy or wanted her to be lonely it's just a weird feeling. I mean it could be a meaningless fling but what if it's serious.
My mom always has been a wanted woman she is drop-dead gorgeous. I've got my blonde hair and blue eyes from her, trust me it's every man's weakness. and many women would kill for her body, perfectly shaped curves and a tiny waist, still, she turned each man down till now...what changed?.
''JADE'' I hear ari screaming through the phone.
''oh yes sorry I drifted off a bit'' I say as I get in my uber.
''arent you happy for her ?'' Ari asks me.
" I am...I guess it's just a lot to digest but let's change the topic now hm what did your mom say to the picture you drew for her"
Ari respected my will and started to talk about the painting she drew for her mum's 40 birthday.
"Okay cherry, I just arrived home ill have to hang up on you I love you"
''Sleep well I Love you'' she says before hanging up the phone I pull our house keys out of my purse unlocking the door and locking it again after I enter.
out of all of a sudden, my body goes limp and the memories of my dad start flashing into my mind again I feel my eyes getting watery and my breaths start to get heavier.
I try to count to ten and focus on my breathing preventing myself from having a panic attack. Minutes go by and I get calmer with each of them, It's not my first panic attack I struggle with them ever since my dad started to act aggressively towards us.
I walk into my room on the end of the hallway throwing myself on the bed in the middle of the room, I should be asleep by now I mumble into my pillow.
I pull myself up discovering a stain of my black mascara that ran down my cheeks with the tears.
I grab it and take it with me to my bathroom.
I take the dress off exposing the black lingerie that I had on under it. I take it off as well and walk into the shower turning on the water. I first let the water run down my face and hair and then I massage some shampoo into my hair, and some vanilla cinnamon lotion onto my body. I slide my hands down my body washing everything off. I grab a towel from the shelf next to my shower and wrap it around my body.
looking into the mirror I spread some creme over my face. I turn off the light rapidly when I hear my mum storming in with James by her side. I hear them still making out.
Guess she didn't expect me to be home that early, surprise surprise mom your daughter isn't a normal young adult and prefers home then huge celebrations.
His deep voice fades, I think he left now peeking out of the bathroom checking the air is clear I rush into the kitchen surprising my mum.
''You and Sinclair huh?'' she jumps hearing my voice.
''Ah y-yea'' she whispers looking at the ground as her face turns all red, she matches now the lipstick that's smudged all over her lips.
''Is something serious going on between you two or is it just a fling?'' not knowing which answer would make me feel better.
'' I think so, I feel good with him I finally got the butterflies back that I thought died with your fathers and my love''
I walk over to her and hug her tightly '' I am so happy for you, but mom please be careful Oh, and tell him if he's gonna fuck it up I will come for him'' she laughs as I say so hugging me back.
''You can tell it to him by yourself he comes over tomorrow to eat dinner with us, we wanted to tell you there, but that didn't go as planned''
''will do'' I nod with my head kissing her on the cheek and heading towards my room to sleep.
