"Hey, are they around?" I asked as I sat at the reception holding their favourite foods . I know they asked me not to but it has been almost 2 months already and now I feel like everything is going south. I don't know where I stand now. I barely see them.
"No, they are in a meeting now that would take around 3-4 hours." I can wait for that long. "Jaime asked me to ask you to go home. We have another meeting too." I sighed. I should have been used to this.
"Okay." I turned ready to leave but hid and waited as she left and went into the office and guess what was the shock of my life. "Jaime?"
"Dennis? What are you doing here?" He asked standing up fast. I looked at the still sleeping Alex.
"What is going on?" I asked and that's when Alex stirred. "I was told.... you... wait."
"Dennis, calm down." I moved back as he took a step forward.
"Dennis?" Alex called cutely still sleepy.
"Hi loves. I'm back. How are you doing babe." She went to Alex giving him a kiss on the cheek then to Jaime doing the same. "I brought lunch from a better restaurant better than yesterday and you need to eat. I'm not saying no." I looked at the bag in my hands. I was here yesterday.
"Dennis. Wait." I turned to leave but Jaime stopped me. I get it.
"Let me go Jaime." I gritted my teeth. I am not angry. I'm not angry.
"Listen to me first." Jaime said and and Alex came next to me holding my other hand.
"Please listen first." He looked close to tears.
"I'll leave you first."she left and closed the door.
"Its isn't what it seems please..." Alex said.
"Oh, really okay. I came to drop these. Don't worry I'll pretend everything is okay and get out of your skin if that's what you wanted me to do. You should have just asked me nicely. I'm not an idiot you know."
"Dennis."
"Fuck off." I pushed him away and Jaime was at his side. "I get it, you didn't have to pretend to like me. And to think I fell in love you the minute I saw you. You wanted Jaime in the long run right?" What am I saying?
"Its not like that Pappi. Please listen to me." He sobbed and Jaime was rubbing his back.
"If you guys were tired of me you should have said instead of sneaking around to fuck. What, I'm adding up everything here. I guess I was stupid. My dad was right. You wouldn't love me. What did I do to you Alex? Wasn't I satisfying enough? What haven't I done for you Jaime. Why was I such an idiot. Fuck! This hurts. It hurts a lot." I grabbed my chest but didn't let a single tear drop.
"Dennis you are misunderstanding things." Jaime said helping Alex sit. I only pushed him, he didn't break a bone.
"What do you want me to do? Turn into a red head, high heeled. Tall, grow boobs? I can't do that. Stop trying to explain things. I've had enough, I asked you, you had many chances to explain to me. You know how much I hate lies." I shouted the last part. The first year dropped and I cleaned it fast. "You know, it's okay. You can go on, 'meeting around' as you put it. You don't need me. I understand. I'm out."
"Don't go if we haven't resolved this. Please." Alex said standing up and Jaime was running to him again. To say I felt alone was an understatement.
"Shut the fuck up. I don't want to be played a fool again. What resolution do you want? I forgive you? What for? Whoring behind my back? Sleeping with every bitch and laughing at me your husband behind your back. See a bitch deliver food when you refuse mine? What, I feel great don't worry as you look. You can go to your bitch in peace." I held my cheek which stung. Did Jaime just slap me? I lifted my eyes to his which showed regret. I moved back.
