Obsessive

Chapter 7

In the quiet confines of their dorm room's living room, Beyoncé and Onika sat facing each other, ready to open up their hearts and confront the emotional turmoil that had plagued their relationship for so long.

Onika began to speak, her voice trembling with emotion. "Beyoncé, I need you to understand why I did the things I did,why I was so obsessed with you. *she let out a deep breath* You were my escape you know, my first love, my first sexual partner,my first girlfriend,the first person to ever treat me right and spoil me, the first person to wait for me to wanna have sec and not try to force me into it,the one person who truly understood me and believed in me when no one else did not even myself. You helped me break free from my parents and their abuse,you helped me escape them and a the life I despised. You were my only source of happiness, the reason I could smile every day."

Tears welled up in Onika's eyes as she continued, "I felt like I needed you physically, mentally, emotionally, I felt like I had to hear your voice telling me everything was going to be ok just to get through each day. You were the only reason I smiled. And I couldn't bear the thought of anyone taking you away from me so When I woke up that day and saw you had left, it felt like my world crumbled, and everything turned to chaos."

Beyoncé listened intently, her heart heavy with the weight of Onika's words. She took a deep breath and began to share her own feelings.

"Onika," Beyoncé confessed, her voice filled with vulnerability, "I felt like I was a doll being controlled by you. I felt like I couldn't do anything without you getting mad I couldn't smile,I couldn't wave,I couldnt even blink at someone without you getting mad, I also wanted to marry you and move in with you, but I wanted it to be on terms where we were bother ready not just you , not to be forced into anything. I wanted to stay, but I was so afraid of making one wrong move and you hurting me. I felt like if I had stayed, I would have lost myself, like I would have died."

Onika's eyes widened with the realization of the pain she had inadvertently caused. "Beyoncé, I never meant to make you feel that way," she whispered, her voice full of regret. "I just wanted you to love me more than anyone else, so I knew you wouldn't leave. I guess it didn't go as planned."

Beyoncé reached out, gently holding Onika's hand. "Onika, i loved you more than you know. You helped me mentally more than you can imagine. I would have stayed, but it became too overwhelming."

Onika took a deep breath, tears still glistening in her eyes. "I'm so sorry, Beyoncé. I never wanted to hurt you like that but I'm starting therapy in 2 days so yeah."

Beyoncé offered a warm smile. "Onika, I'm proud of you for seeking therapy. I hope it helps you heal and find the happiness you deserve."

Onika's shoulders relaxed slightly as she let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Beyoncé. I just want to be a better person, for myself and maybe even for us."

As they sat there, the burdens of the past slowly lifting, they both recognized that they had taken the first step toward understanding and forgiveness. The path to rebuilding trust and potentially rekindling their relationship would be challenging, but it was a path they were now willing to explore, armed with newfound self-awareness and the hope of a brighter future together.
