The sound of giggling was ringing in Athena's aching ears as the events of last night came to her full force. She hadn't mean to get drunk but she was having a good time being around her family until Jace started calling and texting her from an unknown number sending her into a frenzy where she drank because she didn't want to talk about her feelings.
For once she didn't want the topic to be about her and now that it wasn't, she didn't want it to switch back so she went for a drive to rid herself of her feelings and she ended up taking a bottle behind her. It was only on her way back home that she heard a big pop in the middle of the road and her car wobbling while slowing down which indicated that she had burst a tire.
She had half a mind to just lay back down and go to sleep but the giggling was a clear indication that Remys daughter was here and she didn't want to take the attention away from her or meet her while she's with her father especially since her mother didn't take to her.
That was more of a reason why she needed to get the hell out of here. Throwing the covers from around her body, she sat up on his bed and let her feet dangle off to the side as she stared out in space contemplating life.
Picking up the bottle of water and pill that was on the nightstand, Athena opened the water and plopped the pill in her mouth to soothe her headache before getting up and walking over to his bathroom where she got her morning routine together.
It was Monday and she had plans to go looking at Apartments/Condos because she was ready to give her parents back their space and she was ready to walk around her house naked without feeling like she was being watched or coddled.
Clearing of a throat made her look in the mirror to see that Remy had finally made his way upstairs and just like she expected, he didn't look pleased. Bending down, she rinsed out her mouth with mouthwash and stood back up to face him. "Hey." She whispered.
Remy leaned against the threshold of his bathroom door, "How're you feeling this morning?"
She sighed and crossed her arms over her breast, "Let's not make small talk especially with your daughter here so I can leave, just go ahead and give it to me."
Chuckling, "I don't have anything to give to you, Athena. I just want to make something clear with you real quick and maybe it's a woman thing or maybe it's a what you're used to thing but I'm going to clarify it for you so you can grasp the concept of why I was upset about your behavior last night."
"I'm listening." She leaned against the bathroom counter.
"If my woman can't depend on me to do something as simple as picking up some groceries from the store for her when she's falling short to do so then I take it as that she don't trust me to be the man that's supposed to love, honor, provide and protect her. I want, no, need for you to depend on me. It's not about stroking my ego or making me feel like a man. It's about me being happy to know that whatever you're going through, you have that faith to pick up the phone and call me and no less than two minutes I'm there. God created me to be the head and backbone of my family but he created you to be the neck. I need to always make sure that my neck is being supported for my head and backbone to function correctly. I need you to want me and depend on me just as much as I need and depend on you." He pour out with so many emotions behind his words.
