My Retribution

Part 64

Kirk's POV

Freen and I have been traveling from New York to Thailand weekly for 2 months already. My body can't take it anymore from jet lag and the over all stress of flying. I feel so tired and drained. I told Freen to stop just for this week. Grandma might notice that we are not home for consecutive weekend and she might notice the drastic change in Freen's body. We need to stop or our health will be in jeopardy.

Kirk: Just this once, Freen. Let's rest. C'mon Nita has been asking already why she can't be with you during the weekends.

Freen: (annoyed) You stay and I'll go.

She was about to enter the plane and I stopped her.

Kirk: (grabbing Freen in the arm) Stop it Freen! What will you do if Grandma knows?

Freen: She doesn't and I'm going.

I grabbed her arm again and I looked at her with so much contempt.

Kirk: Look at yourself Freen! You totally let go of yourself! Look how skinny you've got! Look at the dark circles under your eyes. You looked tired Freen. You looked sick. Please stop. Let your body rest from the stress, from travelling from all of this.. please.

Freen: (teary eyed) It's the only day that I look forward too Kirk. It's the only day that matters for the hellish week. Let me go.

Kirk: (pleading) If I do that Freen, at this rate. You'll die.

Freen: (crying) What difference does it make Kirk? I'll die anyway if I don't see her. Please just let me go.

I let go of her hand and I watched her enter the plane with a heavy heart. I entered the car and booked a hotel. Grandma will be suspicious if I went home without her. I plan to stay in a hotel and fetch her at the airport when she arrives. I just finished cleaning myself and just sitting on my bed when someone is knocking at my door. "Who could that be? Maybe it's the room service" I opened the door and I was shocked to see Grandma.

Grandma: (smiling) Kirk.

Grandma went inside with 4 men beside her. I got nervous all of a sudden.I clenched my teeth as I strengthened my core in the stomach waiting for a punch or a punishment but nothing.

Grandma: Stop being so tensed Kirk. I'm not here to punish you.

I froze in confusion. "Did I hear it right? She's not going to punish me? Is this a trick?" Grandma went inside and sat on the table. She signaled her hand telling me to sit in front of her which I did.

Grandma: Where is Freen?

Kirk: (poker face) Ahhh. She's with Nita.

Grandma: (smiling) Stop lying Kirk. Nita came to see me. She was asking where Freen is and she asked me permission to let Freen come with her this weekend to Paris. I was surprised. All I know was that 3 of you are going to spend the weekend together. I looked at your credit card and you recently used it here in a hotel.

Grandma knows. Grandma knows we're not with Nita. When we always use her for a reason just to go to Thailand. Shit! Shit! Shit! Freen has been avoiding Nita. It may be the reason why Nita has to come to our house. What the hell.

Kirk: She's.. Ahhh... She just wanted to unwind Grandma.

Grandma: Where is she Kirk?

If Grandma knows that Freen went to Thailand she might imprison her again. I don't like that to happen. It will suffocate her. I chose to keep quiet and doesn't answer her. I know that she's going to order her man to beat me up so I readied myself.
