*Winter
I grabbed the food and left to go home. I took my time getting there cuz I really didn't wanna go in. I left before they came and did a lil stress shopping for myself. I haven't been back home since. So, this is my first time seeing them since they came.
I finally pulled up and pulled myself out of the car. I grabbed the food and headed into the house. I walked in.
"CLARK!!" I yelled
"Yes baby..." he said speeding around the corner
"Don't call me that..." I said looking at him
"Anyways here's the food..."
I gave it to him and was about to walk upstairs but he grabbed my arm.
"Come speak, don't be rude..." he said looking at me
"Clark..." I said
"Please..." he said
I groaned before walking down the stairs. I walked into the kitchen with him behind me. I took a deep breath before I put on a smile and walked in.
"Heyyyyy..." I said looking at them
"Winter. How you doing sweetie??" Catherine asked standing up
See she's a sweetheart but she can be too much for me.
"I'm doing fine, Momma..." I said hugging her
"How you doing??"
"I'm making it Sweetie..." she said
"That's all we can do..." I said
"Calvin..."
He looked up at me.
"How are you??" I asked
"Good..." he said keeping it short
I nodded
"I'm sorry bout him, he's being an asshole today..." she said lowly only for me to hear
"I see where his son gets it from..." I said lowly for her to hear and she laughed
I looked at Clark. He bit his top lip and looked away.
"Excuse me, I need to get out of these heels..." I said before walking off
I headed upstairs and sat on the bed. While taking the heels off, Clark came in and closed the door. I looked up at him.
"What is it??" I asked
"You smell like sex..." he said
"Of course I do..." I said and he looked at me with disbelief
"Who is he??" He asked
"The he you're referring to is in my armrest..." I said
"What??" He asked
"I was pleasuring myself..." I said
"Why not come home and let me??" He asked
I laughed while looking into his face.
"You fucking with me right??" I asked looking at him amused
"No, I'm serious..." he said
"The one in my car has only been inside me. Yours have been inside another bitch or other bitches..." I said a bit louder
"Keep your voice down..." he said
"You don't tell me what the hell to do. What? You don't your parents to know their 5'4, peanut-headed ass son is a cheater..." I said standing up
"I thought we were going to be cordial??" I asked
"Well leave me alone and we can be. You came all the way up here to tell me what I smell like. You don't want me to tell you what you smell like..." I said
"For us to have a good night, let me be..."
"Winter, I wanna fix us..." he said
"Oh, you do??" I asked
"Yes..." he said before tryna grab me but I moved back
"Why??" I asked
"Cuz I love you. I know I fucked up. I know it was fucked up how I treated you. It was fucked up how I ran to another woman when something traumatic happened to us. I should've stayed here and been here for you. That was a bitch ass move and I know that now. I'm sorry, I truly am. I just want your forgiveness. I want you to wanna fix our marriage. I want to build that trust back. I hate this and how we are. I just want us back..." he said looking into my eyes
I was silent for a while tryna collect myself. He looks genuinely sorry, but I don't want this.
"Clark you fucked up and fucked ova me. I can't forget how you did me and what you did. It's no way for me to look at you the same. You broke me and I had to put myself back together. You took me to a place that I can't come from with you. I treated you with respect. I made excuses for you. I dimmed my light for you. I sacrificed so much for you and that's how you do me..." I said as tears filled my eyes
"I lost MY child. During that time you never ask me how I was feeling or if was I okay. You didn't check on me, see about me, and barely talked to me. I told you I wanted to try again and you couldn't even do that for me. You knew I wanted to have a child and you couldn't do that for me. That hurt me the most..."
"Winter please..." he said grabbing my arm
"Don't..." I said as tears continually roll down my face
"Don't touch me..."
"Whatever happens from here on out, it's your doing..." I said before walking off and going into the bathroom
My back rested on the door as I broke down. I'm still hurt. I still had that feeling. I still think about it. I can't get past it.
I slid to the floor as I sobbed.
_____________
After an hour of sitting on the floor crying, I finally got up and cut on the shower. I stripped outta my clothes and got it. I stood under the water and it ran ova my head down my body. I let out a deep sigh and closed my eyes.
I moved from under and threw my hair back. I cut the cold water down some and let the hot water relax my body. I enjoyed the water as I took deep breaths to clear my mind from everything.
I was in for like 30 minutes before I bathe and got out. I grabbed my drying-off towel and wrapped it around myself. I wrapped my hair up in the microfiber hair towel. I started doing my skincare and put on some lip balm. I opened the bathroom door and walked out. I grabbed my phone and opened it. Kassidy had called and texted. I sat my phone down and sighed. I picked it back up and called her. She answered on the 4th ring.
"Hello..." she answered
"Hey..." I said
"Hey..." she said
"I was trying to see did you make it home
safe..." she said
"I did, Thanks..." I said
"You're welcome..." she said
It was silent before she broke it.
"Are you okay??" She asked
"I'm fine..." I said before sighing
"You sure??" She asked
"Yes..." I said softly
"Meet me on 54th Avenue at Walmart..." she said
"Kassidy I'm fine..." I said
"Do you want me to come to your house??" She asked
"Kassidy..." I said
"Exactly, so get yo ass up and meet me..." she said before hanging up
I sat my phone down and smiled.
I got up, dried off, and moisturized myself. Then, I put on a set and some slides. I sprayed on some perfume and left my hair in that wet look. I grabbed my purse and headed downstairs.
"Where you going, sweetie??" Catherine asked making Clark and Calvin look up
"For a drive. I need to clear my mind..." I said before heading out the door
I started my car and headed to meet Kassidy.
