This was my first night sleeping in my apartment since the birth of our daughter and I hated it. As much as I hated the arguments we had, hated the way she smiled around the house while talking to that darned Alexis, hated that w slept in separate rooms, I missed being home with waking up to us being under the same roof and having dinner together even though we never spoke much. I thought that being under the same roof as he would help us become closer and I believe it was but now that she kicked me out, I will never get the chance again.
" Evening ma'am, what would a beautiful woman like you like to drink?"
" Anything that will make me forget my problems."
" I've got just the thing."
She went on to mix a concoction of drinks then handed it ove to me with the advice to drink slowly but my life was too fucked up for me to drink slowly. I chugged it and gave her the glass to refill. As I texted Oli to let her know where I was.
" I never knew famous rich athletes to have problems that would require damaging one's liver."
" Since you know who I am, you must know how much I've fucked up my life and marriage."
" Seem a few blogs about that but I heard you and said wife were back together after the birth of your daughter."
" They were wrong, we were just living under the same roof for the sake of me helping her out with our daughter."
Our conversation was cut short by a beautiful woman in an outfit that left nothing to the imagination, sat next to me. She had long blonde tresses that complimented her oval shaped face so well. By the red lipstick she had on, I knew she was nothing but trouble.
" Saw you drinking alone and thought I could join you."
" I don't mind the company if you're buying for yourself."
" Don't tell me a pro basketball player like you can't afford a simple drink for a lady. I heard you're very generous."
" I'm sure you you heard where that generosity landed me."
" Well there are plenty women our here who'll appreciate your generosity."
" There was a time that that was what I wanted, plenty women but today all I want is my wife."
She turned to face me and I could not help starring at her breasts. One slip of her silk dress, all her business would be out. I turned back to my now empty fourth glass and signalled to the bartender to fill it up.
" Out of curiosity, do you want your wife back because you love her and realize you did her wrong or because she was there and now there's no one to go home to. No one's love you can use and abuse."
" I have never abused my wife and I loved her too."
" Nobody said you didn't love her and you did abuse her, not physically but emotionally. You abused her love for you.-"
I did not come here to hear the same accusations I keep taking from Nandi.
" I came here to forget my problems not to add to them."
I almost tripped on my feet as I got off my chair, pushed it roughly back then stumbled to the nearest empty vip couch.
" Fancy seeing you in such a place at this time of the night."
" Scarlett?."
Got away from one annoying woman to the next, can this day get any worse?.
" I didn't see you today?"
" Scarlett no offense but I would like to be left alone."
I heard her gasp but I did not care, I needed silence.
