             Chapter 57: Restaurant &
Acts of Jealousy

E M M A: 🌹

I know that there has been a lot of things just happening in my head. I been going to work because I liked seeing Naomi, Tess and Wendy because I hated on my days off. And then I decided on continuing my online classes to earn my degree to graduate fully by June.

    I have been at a wits end with most of my friends because they say I'm with a toxic person. And I know that there is no way in hell that that is true. And I just don't believe that. Even if I wanted to, it would be absolute nonsense. I refuse to pick up calls from my dad. And I associate with my friends who are sticking around. And also, Noah. I feel like Noah is the only person I can trust. There's been a lot of things happening lately.

   I usually come home after my shifts from work and I relax in a warm bath in our bathroom in our penthouse. Well it's more considered a smart house to me. And I had just try to fix myself by disconnecting myself from everyone else. But I say that I can trust Noah. But there are some other things I'm not entirely sure I can trust when it comes to Noah. Recently, he has been a bit decent. And lately he spends a lot of times on his phone or on his emails. And he comes home later than usual. And for three months he's been acting like a husband who comes home late from a work trip. And I just don't get it to be fair. Last week he left for a business trip he said. So for six whole days I been by myself and I still have doubts about why he's blowing me off all the time. And also, I just don't actually get what's going on. I feel like I'm a housewife. The way he treats me. And I can't actually get it through to why everything is so crazy. And he's got locks on everything. His phone. It's like he's trying to hide something. In spite of our arguments, it gets crazy.

     Of course we're arguing like normal couples do. But he just leaves with no reasons sometimes. I see that he texts on his phone a lot. Is he texting Kate? I bring her up a lot. Especially when we're having breakfast or dinner. And he just shrugs it off like I never spoke. And I try not to nag. But I am concerned that he's lying to me. And I actually hate it. But I don't think he'd lie to me after everything that we have been through. And I'm not ready to open that can of worms yet.

When I got home from work, I did the normal routine. I had gone into our bedroom, and I turned on some relaxing music to relieve any kinda stress that I might have. And I had gotten out of my work clothes and I threw my beige silk robe on and I tore my hair out of the ponytail and replaced it into a messy bun. I had gone into our bathroom that is luxury with a oval white bathtub and in the bathroom is the luxury shower with open glass doors to see inside. So much space, and so much room in the shower. It's like a waterfall in there. I had decided to draw myself a bath and I had sat in it. And once I took my robe off, I went into the bath in the nude.

I had just relaxed myself, thinking about a lot of different things. I keep thinking about both of my parents actually hating and not supporting my decisions of dating Noah. They both think that I am making a mistake, which clearly isn't their call to make. I'm sure that everything is fine with Noah and me. We do have some arguments but couples have little fights. It's completely normal. And I think it's entirely up to me.

I can't say that I hate my parents. But they don't like Noah. Or they more don't like him for me. And I guess they all don't actually care about me anymore. And I'm just trying to work here through the hard and good times. There's days when I go to work at the Bean, take online classes for my degree, and I go to the library for quiet. I get coffee with the girls. And I do have my days with Noah. But the past few weeks he's been distant. And I'm not worried, but I do have some suspicion. And I have to trust Noah and obviously not assume anything. Because I definitely don't want to lose Noah. He's really the only person that I have and if I were to lose him... I would definitely lose myself too. I would go crashing down.
