I'm Scared Of You.

52

"Good morning, Solomon.", said Margo hugging me from behind.

"Don't wake me up right now...", I was pushing her away with my arm.

" Let's go and eat, yes?", she said hugging me again.

"I said let me sleep."

She's so annoying... And loud... And bright.

"And close the windows darling.", I said slowly.

"Let's go and eat, Solomon."

"I enjoy eating alone, you know that."

"I'll make you that horrendously sweet tea you like to drink."

"No."

She sighed. And slowly moved his arms away and stopped hugging me and got up.

I heard her walking towards the curtains and the room became dark.

She walked across the bed and I heard the door closing.

Peace.

I suddenly heard a scream coming from a room.

I jumped and ran to open the door.

"What is it?", I asked annoyed.

" your snake! Your damn snake! She is in my Burkini bag! Take that out right now!", she said.

I sighed.

"Come here Mephisto...", I said grabbing the snake out of a horrible bag. " I can't believe I got up over this.", I said kissing his head.

Margo suddenly grabbed my other hand with abnormal strength. I looked at her surprised, meeting her eyes.

She looked straight at me. With a straight face. No light of feelings came out of her gaze.

"Next time, I'm killing it. Put your shit where I can't see it.", she said.

I frowned and slowly pulled my hand away.

"Okay, love. I'm sorry...?", I said.

She took a breath and said.

" Eat with me, yes?"

"Okay."

"And open the window, please. We're not Vampires."

"Okay", I said.

She smiled and grabbed my head and planted a kiss on my forehead.

" Brush your hair, yes?"

"Okay."

I turned around and walked to open the window.

This is weird.

I gazed back at her. She was looking for things in the kitchen. She was wearing grey underwear and a sweater.

I rolled my eyes and looked back at the window.

She used to wear laced fancy underwear before.

I thought annoyed.

Hmm. I mean. I did block her card.

How could she buy pretty underwear for me?

"Margo?", I asked.

" hmm?", she said busy.

"Do you want to go to the city today?"

She stopped and looked at me.

"You and me?", she asked.

I gritted my teeth.

" Of course. With whom else?"

"Ow, please love." She said and ran up to me. She placed her arms around my neck and put her nose against mine. "I only want to go out with you, did you know?"

Too close.

I turned my head away. And she grabbed it with her hands and turned again back to her.

I frowned.

"Don't frown so much...", she said whispering against my lips.

I frowned more.

I grabbed her waist and tried pulling her away.

And she quickly wrapped herself around my neck and pulled herself closer, hugging me.

I sighed.

I tried pulling her but of course, I didn't have the energy or the strength.

Damn pills.

" You didn't answer my question, love.", I said.

"Yes, I would like to go. What are we doing?"

"Stuff.", I said.

"What stuff?" She said kissing my cheek and then hugging me again.

"Things you can't understand."

"I do have a degree in business. Have you forgotten?" She said kissing my cheek again.

"And I have three. And I don't forget anything."

"You forget a lot of things.", she said kissing my neck.

How is it that I am against the window and not her?

"You mean, unimportant things.".

"No... Other things too... Like-"

I put my head in her head and stopped her from speaking.

"It's all good, don't worry about such things. Don't worry about anything, at all."

She took a deep breath and moved her hands and hugged me from my torso.

"I love you, Solomon Vernon.", she said and looked up to me.

Her eyes... They were almost dead. She has a smile on but her eyes are only a deep void.

She's changed...

I grabbed her face and replied.

"I've loved you since I meet you. The universe has to be destroyed for the love I feel for you to end. There's nothing. Nothing. I would not do for you."

"Really?", she said excitedly.

"Yes, love."

"That makes me happy, Solomon. Because there's something I want. I really, really want it. "

"I'll give it to you. I'll give you everything. I'll give you the entire world, Margo. Believe me. Please... Do you believe me?", I asked her agitated.

" I believe you. From now on, I'll believe everything you say, and I'll do anything you need me to do. I believe you, okay? Don't worry."

"What do you want, Margo? Please tell me, my love."

She leaned in my ear and whispered mischievously. Almost like a kid.

"I want... The Vernon & Hozeldine Group, Solomon."

I opened my eyes widely and chuckled.

"I'm the right Husband for that.", I said smiling.
