Apart

Daisy

Everything is happening so quickly when I look back now these are just little yet important milestones for me, few months ago I would have never imagined getting with Paul, I used to have mental breakdowns about my exams, then I gave an interview in a big company and all of a sudden I am with Paul, I passed my exams and got selected for the job and today here I am living the day I waited for all my life I am going to move in my dream apartment. "For the last time when you want to meet just call and I will come to you" My family has been bugging me about my passcode but I have made up my mind not to share it with anyone except Paul, instead of a code if I would have gotten a key they would not pursue me as much as they are doing it right now I guess I made a mistake taking my sister with me that day, ever since she back all she can talk about is my house and my mom is dying to see where I am going to live I will them in sometime soon but not today I am sure I am going to tired with all of the moving. "You are going to show us your place right?" my mom asked I could see on her face she was a little worried about me and why wouldn't she be I have been living with her all my life it is natural she would want to inspect the place if it is good enough for her little girl I look her in the eye and say "Of course, I want to settle in first" I gently hold her cheeks with my palm and saw a drop of tear rolling down I hugged her tightly "You don't have to worry about me anymore" I never had such heart to heart moment with her before "You are always going to be my little baby girl" I chuckled and so did she "Oh my god she is going live in 20 minutes far away from here not leaving the country" we both looked at my sister and instead of any snarky come back with both opened our arms to let her join us and she did after hesitating for few second. "You have packed everything you need right?" my mom asked me, she knows that the apartment comes with a fully furnished scale so all I need is my clothes there "Yes" I checked her phone apparently I could not take all the boxes with me in my car she booked a moving service which is going to be here in any minute.

I locked the behind me when I came into my room I called Paul, it was ringing but no response I tried him again and again but no reaction from the other side I took a deep breath and dialed him again for the last time as the process goes it is ringing but he is not picking up I was just about to hang up I hear a voice from his end "Hello?" it is a woman who answered, why would a woman would answer his phone? I cannot dive into my imagination right I responded right away "Hello, Paul?" I don't want to ask a question I already know the answer to, my heart is cracking inside then she said "Daisy you have been with Paul all this time, you have no time for me" Oh my effing god it is Sally I have never been happy to hear her voice in my entire life "Sorry Sal, do you know where Paul is?" I asked her I know I have been missing some girl time "I don't know where he is frankly, he kept everything to himself about his company I guess the stress is getting him" I was worried about this only but I know my man can handle everything that comes on his way but right now I want someone to be with me then I thought I will ask her hopefully she is available at this moment "Sal, are you free right now?" everything depends on her answer or else I would have to take these two monkeys with me "Yes, what's up" Ohhh yesss "Actually today I am moving so can you meet me at my new apartment ?" I can take my car over there and sort the parking situation if there is one but tonight I don't want to be alone "Sure I'll be there" We both hung up and I opened the door there were my two house monkeys up in my neck "Are you going alone?" my mom asked me, I was about was say no when my sister said, "Your boyfriend is not going with you?". Time froze at that moment, I did not tell anyone about my dating life anyone then how did she come to know about this I looked at her she casually slipped "I saw you both at the fair" My hand went on my forehead in a second pinching the nose bridge a second after, Where are the god damn movers when I need them the most I think there is no escape now. 

I took my mom and we both sat on the couch facing each other "When did all of this happen?" she asked me I spoke but before that, I stared at my sister with a warning "Mom, it all happened a few months ago before my finals" she kept tapping her legs, is she going to get anxiety because of this? I know what I am going to do after I settle in my place I will kill my sister "Mom, calm down he is very rich, in fact, Daisy is working for his sister" How on earth is she getting all this information? Although it is accurate still and who spills the tea like that, especially to a mom our mom who has never let her daughters out of her sight? She stooped up and left but before she went she said "Stay here Daisy, don't leave until I come back" I nodded "What the hell is wrong with you" I yelled at her I saw she was least bothered by that "I though you told her, I mean you don't share things to me but I figured.." I cut her off "You figured nothing okay I did not tell anyone about me and Paul and you just sprung it over her and on the day I am moving into an apartment whose passcode I am not giving to any of you guys" Yup I am going to kill her I know it is illegal but I am damn sure I am not letting her in my house not now not ever. "And if you knew about us then you could have come and said something to me and how did you know about the sister?" I asked, in the moment it feels like we both are screaming "When I saw him I knew he looked familiar then it clicked he used to hangout with Usher after that it was simple I stalked Usher's Instagram and saw Paul tagged in some photos from there I googled him for more information and got to know about her sister too when you went for the interview I knew I saw something that has been on news for a long time and it was the new company launch from the William's and Gale's" this bitch has researched about everything "Don't you have your own life?" why is she up mine anyway "Mine does not involve millionaire boyfriend" aahhh I am going to strangle here, it is fine my mother can live with me if this brat is dead "Who would have thought Ms. Daisy is going to be the first millionaire in our family" she is right about that but I am not taking his money to prove any point but I am going work hard and become the rich guy she is praising so much. We were about to continue our argument when our mom came inside with a bag she is carrying she stood in front of me and said "You are going to live your life now but forget protection is important" she hands me the bag when I looked inside there were condoms "Oh my god mom" she put a finger on my lips "I know I know you guys must your resouces too but you should be careful okay" Honestly I would prefer one hour lecture of not keeping a boyfriend over this, my mom handing me condom is not what I imagined my last day here would be "Mom, hope she gets pregnant at least that way it would be confirm that she get half of his money" I am going to sew her lips once and for all "You need to shut your mouth" she laughs when I am speaking to her I turn to mom and she says "I don't know how rich he is or anything but if he making you happy I would want you guys to continue and also I would like to meet him soon" I gave the fakest smile possible and said "NO, I don't want this wild child to be all over him" at the end of our conversation we all laughed.
