The other women

Nineteen.

I could not believe Michael is so cruel, he literally threw me out of his house, I walked out the room and down the stairs, I found Mia and she can see something is wrong she excused herself and then we walked outside. "What happened?" she ask and I shake my head trying to stop myself from crying. "He told me to leave." I say and she frown. "Why?" "I don't know, I was just talking to his daughter and he told me to leave." She nod and hug me. "I'm sorry Ava, do you want me to go with you?" she ask and I shake my head. "No go enjoy, I am just going home." I say and she nods hugging me again. I got in the taxi and on my way to my apartment I got a message from Gabriel.

Gabriel: Hi, are you free, do you want to go have drinks with me and some friends?

I decided fuck it if Michael can have fun with his friends and wife then I can as well.

Me: Sure, where do we meet?

He text me the bar name and that they will wait for me. I told him I was on my way and I told the taxi driver my new destination, I arrive at the bar and Gabriel was waiting outside, he smile looking me up and down. "I know I am overdressed but I was at a dinner party with Mia." I say hugging him and he laugh. "You look good though" he say and I smile as we walk into the bar, his hand was on my lower back guiding me. He introduced me to some his friends and they all seemed really nice. "So Ava, you're a model?" his friend Denise ask and I nod. "Yes I am working for Vogue and Victoria Secret at the moment." I say and she nods impress. "And you?" I ask and she smile, "Not as interesting as you but I am a photographer as well." she say and I nod. "I always wanted to study photography, but I started modelling when I was sixteen and I haven't looked back." I say and she nods.

We had a great time and I laughed a lot, forgetting Michael for a bit was nice, I sat close to Gabriel, I liked him he was a good guy and I can tell he likes me, and the nice thing about him is he is not married. "Come let's take some photos." Denise say and we all took photos, "I will tag you" she say and I nod, not caring if Michael will see it he is the one that told me to leave his house. Just before 2 we decided to call it a night and Gabriel offered to drive home with me, I accepted but I was nervous I hope he does not except me to invite him in. "Thanks for a great evening." I say as we sat in the taxi and he smile. "Are you still with your situation ship?" he ask and I frown. "I don't know" I say and he nods, and then he lean in and kiss me, I was shocked at first but then I kissed him back, he was a good kisser and a good guy. He pull away his hand on my cheek smiling, "I really like you Ava." he say and I nod pulling away from him.

"I really like you too, but for the time being we cannot be anything more than friends, I need to sort out this shit I have going on first." I say and he nods. "I will wait, you are worth waiting for." he say and I smile as he kiss me again. We stopped at my apartment and I thank him again and then I walked into my apartment. I sigh walking to my room and dressed in my PJ's and remove my makeup. I lay in bed thinking about the night. Michael was so rude, and sometimes I think why am I with him, and then there is Gabriel, he is so nice and I can tell he really likes me, but as, long as I have Michael I cannot do that to Gabriel, maybe I should just let Michael go yes it will hurt like hell but will I not be so much more happier with Gabriel?

My phone ping and I look at it, I see Denise has posted the pictures and tagged me in them, and I smile and follow her back. I comment under the post.

Was so nice meeting all of you, thank you for turning my shitty night in an awesome one?

They all liked my comment and then I put my phone down and fell asleep, trying to forget everything that had happened. I woke up from my phone ringing and I was still half asleep when I answer not even looking at the screen. "Hello" "Ava, I am outside open your door." "Michael, what, why are you here?" "Just open the fucking door Ava." he shout in the phone and I pull myself from my bed and walk to the door. I open the door and he looked furious, before I can say anything he push past me walking in. "Well come on in." I say sarcastically closing the door, he turns around his hands in his pockets and he glares at me. "Did you have a good night?" he ask and I sigh, I knew it was going to be about last night, I need coffee for this. "I did actually, after you chased me away." I say walking to the kitchen switching on the kettle.

He follows me and he leans against the kitchen counter, the kitchen feels too small with him in it. "Do you want coffee?" I ask and he just nod. I made coffee for us and then just stood there against the kitchen counter, sipping my coffee. He was angry I can see that, but I was not going to apologise for anything, I did nothing wrong. "What do you want Michael, and where does Olivia think you are on a Sunday morning?" I ask and he sigh. "Are you trying to make me jealous?" he ask not answering me and I frown. "What?" I ask really confuse. "Are you trying to make me jealous with that fucking guy?" he ask and I realize what he is saying. "And why would I do that?" I ask sipping my coffee. "Don't act fucking innocent Ava." he say clearly angry. "What is it you want from me Michael, I would never have gone out with a friend, by the way that is all he is a friend if you did not chase me out of your fucking house like a DOG." I shout losing my cool with him.

He was taken aback, I have never raised my voice to him, but right now I am really losing it with him. "Ava, it was awkward and finding you in our room, that I share with my wife, just pushed me over the edge." he say more calmly and I nod. "I know that Michael, don't you think I was feeling out of place as well, seeing you with her, touching her, kissing her knowing you had your dick in me not even 24 hours before that." I say putting my cup in the sink. I turn around looking at him folding my arms. "I was wrong to tell you to leave I understand that and I am sorry for that, but you going out with that guy for revenge I will not tolerate that." he say and I could not believe him. "You know what Michael, please leave you are pissing me off." I say walking to the door, I open it waiting for him to leave. He sigh and walk out the door, "Enjoy Mexico." I say and then I close the door before he can say anything else.
