Tina's POV
"Congrats bro bro," a tall man looking a lot like Olivia but he's much darker. He has hair like Oshane, Olivia and Omar so I'm guessing he's one of his brothers.
"Thanks Owen," he says, hugging and patting his back.
I stand there staring at Oshane as he embraces who I assume is his brother.
"Miles? Man buff yuh fuck," he says hugging the same man.
Miles?? Nuh Owen him just name??
Another man comes shortly after Owen or Miles or anything his name is. They greet him practically the same way. They're all relatively the same height. Close complexion and hair type. Omar looks a lot like Oshane tho, I'm guessing they look like their dad but the other two look identical to Olivia and Olivia looks like Miss Eined. Olivia had joined them after a little while.
"Christine," Oshane calls and I walk over to him.
"Yes," is my simple response.
"These are all my siblings, Omar, Owen, Orlando and Olivia," he introduces, pointing to each person respectively.
"Hi," I smile shyly and they wave.
"Guys this is Christine, my now girlfriend," he continues and I forget I'm upset.
We all gathered inside where I met some of his family members. I'm about to meet his dad for the first time and I don't know how to feel. Goosebumps are washing my arms.
He senses my discomfort and takes my hand into his. We walk over to this older looking white man standing with his hands folded across his chest. I'm not sure why he's dressed in a black jacket suit at a baby shower but who am I to ask questions??
"Pops come here deh a second," Shane calls and the absolute unit of a man walks over to us.
Look pon Oshane twin.
"Yah dealid big man?" he asks and his accent catches me off guard.
"You look surprised," he points out. I wear my emotions on my face when I'm comfortable so I understand how he knows.
"I am sir," I say and I want to face palm.
"And you are? I've never seen you before," he says sternly with no emotions written on his slightly wrinkled face and I want to curl up into a ball and disappear.
"Oye meds nuh daddy yah frighten har fah?" Shane asks, hugging me. I smile internally as he stands up for me because I'm weak in the knees!!
We love a protector!!
"Christine meet the man that contributed to my existence," he said almost sarcastically.
"Nice to meet you sir," I smile with an outstretched arm.
"Mr. Simmonds meet Christine," he continued.
"So you're Christine," he says firmly, gripping my hand. He's strong as hell I can tell by the unintentional strength he just gripped my hand with.
"Yes sir;" I nod.
His aura is like Nester's, just darker. He hasn't smiled not once since I've been standing here. But then, he does…he's smiling??
I looked around to see what suddenly changed his mood.
"Hey Christine," she says, hugging me.
"Hi Ms Inny," I smile into the embrace.
"I see you met my husband," she says and I chuckle nervously.
"He's stern," I say shyly, itching the back of my neck.
She swats his shoulder and he smiles down at her. The look in his eyes isn't blank anymore. The way he looks at her is so much different than him looking at anybody else. The love in his eyes is genuine, it's obvious.
They start talking and Oshane and I take the opportunity to find our room. Omar had asked his siblings to stay over.
*phone rings*
"Where's the bathroom?" I ask and he stops his conversation to direct me. I follow those directions and find my way into the bathroom before entering and locking the door behind me.
"Yes Xavier?" I whisper into the phone.
"The clock is ticking, as a matter of fact I need what I should get in the next two weeks," he demands and my heart sinks.
"You can't do that you-you you said three months I should have two more," I stutter and my breath hitches in my throat. I start getting dizzy as my mind races.
"That's where you're wrong. I can do whatever I please," he laughs hysterically before hanging up.
Tears stream down my face as I sob into my hands. I don't know how to feel. Coming here was supposed to be simple. No feelings attached. Now I'm his girlfriend, I know I should've said no but I couldn't do that to him.
"Hey babe, yuh good??" I can hear the innocence of his voice ask me through the bathroom door that separates us.
"Yeah I'm okay I'll be out in a minute," I say trying my best to conceal the fact that I'm crying.
My phone proceeds to ring again and I hesitate to answer as the number is unknown.
Wah this now God??
"Hello," I say shakily.
"Hola Tina," a friendly voice greets me and I smile.
"Omg hi Malie, what happened to you?" I ask with surprise, lacing my voice. It's been forever since I've heard from her.
"Girl you know how Izan gets, perhaps I lost my phone," she says. Her tongue rolls as her thick Spanish accent is evident.
"When the fuck are you coming home babe I miss you!!!" she pouts and I smile for a split second.
"Who the fuck are you calling babe?" her controlling boyfriend Izan yells in the background.
"It's Tina," she sighs and I face palm.
Why won't she leave him??
"I'll be home in a few days," I sigh once more and my heart sinks as I think about it. Tears well up in my eyes and I take a deep long breath.
"How come?"
"They shortened my time," I began to explain.
"I'm in love with him and Xavier knows this," I continue and I can hear her sigh.
"Love always finds a way," she comforted and that's ironic coming from her. No matter how low he makes her feel she just won't leave.
"Yeah, I'll call you tomorrow," I say and she says okay and hangs up.
I come out of the bathroom where I'm greeted with a sad looking Oshane.
"Weh yuh mean yah guh home in a few days??"
