WHY DOES IT HURT SO MUCH?
Monday, September
Manchester City, 11:00pm
That same night
I hate my life right now,
I hate seeing him like this.
Rayan is currently at my penthouse, crying his eyes out on my living room's carpet.
I just want to go there and tell him it will be alright, but the truth is I don't know if it will.
Everything seems so surreal, and I know this isn't supposed to be affecting me like it's affecting him.
It's just... me and Rayan have known each other for 18 years, basically since I was 2 years old and I have never seen him this down bad.
We met in school in our home country, Nigeria.
I was living with my parents until I got tired of all the wicked schemes my stepmother was pulling.
What made it even more agonizing was that my Dad didn't even notice. Life was unbearable, that's why I left and started staying with Rayan and his mom.
After some months of me living in Rayan's house his mom later decide that they are going to move to Europe and I follow.
My parents are rich people, or at least my dad is.
So when he found out I was leaving he funded my trip abroad.
At the same time Rayan's Mom's company started to get more successful. So Rayan, his mom and I all moved to Europe. Of course Rayan's mom suggested I stay with her, but I declined because I wanted to live on my own and have more time to think.
Then later on because of the bad person my dad had become, I decided to disown him.
At that time I thought it was an impulsive decision to make. But today surprisingly it has proven to be the only decision that I made in my life that I do not regret.
Rayan is a hard working person that somehow manages to juggle his school life with helping his mom, he is a family person and always makes time for the people he loves. Although he may seem like a bad boy because of the character he shows to outsiders, he's actually a kind soul and he is also very funny. He grew up middle class so he is a very humble person.
"Rayan, I can't assure you she will be okay because everything is in the hands of Allah, but I can tell you she wouldn't like to see you like this. What if something worse were to happen? Is this how you would take care of her? Look at the state you're in." I said to him,
"Nadia, can I stay here?" He saw his voice cracking and coming out in barely a whisper.
I look into his eyes and he looks into mine.
"Of course this is also your house and I can do anything for u Rayan, so what do you want to eat?" I ask
"Anything," he says.
I enter the kitchen, and start arranging all the ingredients of the kitchen island. I put the water on the fire to boil when Rayan comes in and asks;
"Can I help?"
"Sure if you're up for it."
