Turning Table

Part 109

***Cutting Ties ***

🌹Liyana 🌹

I don't know what the heck
k possessed Mangalisa to take me to the very same hospital I work in,
My personal life is now every one business,
Whoever did not know that I'm dating  Ntsika sure do know now.

Do I hate the looks I'm getting, the questions I'm getting, the phony smiles, and the extra being nice attitude? hell yeh, I hate it!!!... I'm still the old broke-ass Liya... Ok not so broke anymore but hay you get my point.

" Liya are you going to look at your food or are you going to start eating?"
My mind was brought back by Ntsika forcing me to eat Greek salad
Me: all I see is green staff here "
I frowned and pushed the plate away,
Ntiska: you carrying my seed feed my baby, proper food women"
Me: I rather starve to death, go get me my kind of proper food "
He laughed and called Key his driver to order food.
I wish he gave me space but he all up in my face not even giving me time to think, worst part this ' you my world... You my Queen attitude '  is done in front of my colleagues, Lord I wish I can tell him to stop fussing about me.

Him: want to talk about it?"
Me: mmm?"
Him: you pulling up your nose, it's the look you give me when you pissed "
Me: I'm pregnant and this im pregnant face"
He laughed " or you just avoiding talking about your mother, brother, or how uncomfortable you are being here ?"

Me: urg  don't remind me "
Him:Cutting ties with your family is difficult and not what most people want. But sometimes it’s the only way to save your sanity and heal the emotional pain caused by a “toxic* or abusive family."
Me: cutting ties you say...don't you think I tried doing that ever since I realized what kind of a person my mother is?"

Him: I'm here now and will do it my way, "
He placed his hands on my stomach, 
Him: she hurt you, put you in this place I don't know what I would have done if I lost you "
Me: I'm a fine baby... You blowing this out of proportion "
Him:it could have been worst, you could have had a miscarriage, or died,  that is why I say stay away from your family"
Me: Ntsika!"
Him: just think of it as an act of self-care. Not something you do because you’re mean or spiteful. It’s something you have to do to protect your physical and mental health. And our precious cargo "
He kissed my forehead and I looked down

Him: Liya what your mother did or what she has been doing rather is disgusting, no one deserves to be abused. So, why do you always give her a free pass? And why would you think I  should tolerate such hurtful behavior from her?... I'm your man and part of my role to play is to protect you, trust me won't be easy to cut her out of your life. Especially since she is the only family you know, I know that it's hard to accept that your mother is creating so much stress, anxiety, and pain that you can’t continue to have a relationship with them but enough is enough!."
Me: I'm just tired of fighting "
Him: good it's time for me to fight for you"
Me: Nts... "

He just got off the bed, to him this topic is over, he is no longer wants to talk about it, I still wonder what does he mean by fight for me, all I know is that the man that I love hates my mothers gut, not what I pictured when I was drawing my family tree in elementary school, but hay no one can predict the future.
I don't know how our relationship will work especially now that I am pregnant and this pink elephant is hanging over us of marriage that is  not yet properly addresses

" so how and when did you make yourself my emergency contact? "
He laughed, as I set up
Him:the day we went to Italy"
Me: How did you get into my medical records?"
Him: what makes you think it was only your medical records I was able to get into?"
Me: Ntsika that just..."
Him: wrong? yah I know... Sorry"
Me: you could have just asked "
Him: and you most probably would have lied... Or said no"
Me: mmm you got that right..."
We chuckled

Me: so they call you my fiance?"
Him: we are kind of engaged"
I looked at him
Me: most probably in your head cause I don't have a ring on"
Him: that can be arranged "
Me: Ntsika...."
Him:Liyama I was not joking when I said I see my future in you, "
Me: that why you knocked me up so I can agree to marry you??"
Him: it takes two to tango " he  winked at me while I bust out and laughed

Me: ye ye ye... Mr. I can't get enough of you "
Him: yeyeye Mrs yes yes right there...uuh uh "
He mimic my voice and started moaning, I threw a pillow at him
Me: shut up!"
Him: mmmm the things you do to me under the sheets" He said biting his lip and packing his staff,  I blushed and placed hands on my face.

Key walked in with my food, finally, I can eat
Ntsika: thanks Key but will eat on the road get the car ready and tell the guards to clear up the whole floor..."
Key nodded and walked out
Me: the Dr has not discharged me "
Him: you hate this place so I'm taking you out of here "
Me: Ntsika you can't do that?  "
He laughed and took a bag, taking my clothes out,

Him: get dress baby... "
I just looked at him...
Him: you know if I do it, I won't stop there "
He said running his hands on my arms,
Me: ooh lord no..."
I said jumping off the bed and dressing up,
Him: how is the headache?"
He said fixing my hair, as he looked at me dead in the eyes,
Me: it's mild now "
Him: mmm"  he lowered his head to kiss me, but the knock on the door made us stop,

" sir the floor is clear, the elevator and the ground floor, "his bodyguard said walking into the room
Him: ok "
Ntsika pointed at his laptop bag and my bag, with his eyes for the bodyguard to pick it up,
Him: there is Mr. Mangalisa outside who request to speak to Ms. Liyana "
Ntsika: get the begs and let's go "
I looked at him I have no say or whatsoever that my only brother is standing outside and wanted to speak to me,

He's on his phone and holding my hand with the other, we make out way to the car, 
Him: Key is the jet ready?"
Key: yes sir "
Him: good then drive us to the airport "
Me: where are we going?"
Him: home "
He runs his hands on my thigh,  and gives me my food,
As I was busy unwrapping my food about to eat, I hear him curse

" Fuck!!!!"
Me: what's wrong?"
Him: your mother just made our relationship public "
Me: what?!!!"
Just as I was asking, his phone started ringing...
Him: damn it! Now my mother is calling me shit!"
