Thin lines between love and hate

Chapter 35

Dominique's POV:
After dropping the letter off I decided to go visit my mother, hopefully she could give me some more advice; I really need it. I took out my phone and dialed her number.

Phone convo
Mom: hello
Me: hey mom
Mom: hi sweetie, how are you holding up
Me: I've been better
Mom: trust me sweetie, it will get better
Me: how do you know that
Mom: you got to have faith baby
Me: yeah, I know
Mom: would you like to come over and talk about it
Me: yes I would, that's the reason I called, I needed someone to talk to. You always know how to make me feel better and I really appreciate it
Mom: no problem sweetheart, that's what mothers are for right
Me: yeah, I'll see you later ok
Mom: ok later

After I finished talking to my mother, I quickly collected my things once more and headed to my car, immediately driving off. I needed a breakthrough.

Ray's POV:
I after the discussion with my mother I decided to take a walk and clear my head, or at least try to. Every thought I had was filled with negativity. I wanted to move forward with my life but I don't know how. I never thought that I would have to go through this, now I know how everyone else around me feels when they go through a breakup.
It's like being stabbed in the heart with a dagger. The pain, the struggle, and the hatred is so unreal and unbearable, but I wasn't going to let this stop me from living my life. Our time together was wonderful, but it's time for me to move on and mom was right, I need to talk to her at some point; no matter how much I don't want to.

Simone's POV:
"Have you been able to get I touch with Dominique lately?" Brandon asked "nope" I replied back "what about you, have you gotten in touch with Ray" I returned the question "he talked to me at some point this week but that was it, I haven't heard from him since" Brandon relied back "Oh my gosh, I can't believe this is happening to them" I said in frustration "I can't believe it either, I mean I know they were arguing but I didn't think it would drive her to cheat on him especially with one of his closest friends". Brandon said "do you think they'll ever get back together" I asked "don't know, that's up to them" he replied "you know what, I'm going to go talk to her" I said grabbing my jacket, keys, and purse "are you sure about that, don't you think we should be giving them space" Brandon said "you talked to Ray already so why can't I talk to Dominique" I said putting my hands on my hip. He hated when I became sassy "Yeah but I didn't come to Ray, he came to me wanting to talk" he said "whatever, I'm still going to talk to her whether she likes it not" I said heading towards the door only to be stopped by Brandon again "maybe you should call her first instead, just to make sure she's not busy" he said "fine" I said pulling my phone and dialing her number.

Phone convo:
Dominique: hello
Me: hey Dominique, I was just wondering if we could meet up and talk, if that's ok you
Dominique: sorry I can't, not tonight. I'm going to go visit tomorrow, but we can definitely talk tomorrow. Considering the face that I've been avoiding my best friend
Me: Dominique, it's fine. I know how you feel. And besides, we'll have all day to talk tomorrow
Dominique: cool, so we're good
Me: girl, we're always good
Dominique: alright I'll se you later
Me: ok, later

Text convo over

"Looks like I'm not going anywhere tonight" I said placing my phone in my back pocket and placing my keys in the key bowl and my other things onto the couch "so what do you want to do then" Brandon asked "nothing, now get out" I said, he looked at me as if I was crazy "excuse me" Branson said with an eyebrow raised "babe I'm just kidding. I'm going to take a shower and then I'm going to bed, but seriously though. Get out, I love you but you got to go" I said giving him a kiss and pushing him out the door "rude much" he said turning around to race me "I said I love you" I said giving him another quick peck on the lips "I'll see later baby" I said "alright later" he replied back before I shut the door behind me.

I couldn't wait until tomorrow.

Dominique's POV:
I arrived to my parents house a whole lot later than what I expected, the traffic was terrible, but that's not what's important right now. I grabbed my things and headed towards the and rung the door bell. Patiently waiting for an answer "hey sweetie, how are you" my asked, embracing me into a hug, I immediately felt tears form in my eyes "I've been better" I said releasing myself from the hug "are you sure your ok baby girl" he asked as I walked into the living room "yeah, I'm fine" I said. He came up to me and wiped my tears, I hadn't realized I had cried "sweetie everything happens for a reason and only God knows the reason for it" he told me "that's sound like something mom would say "well I learn a lot from your mother, she's a fantastic women" my father relied, that made me smile "why think you" my mother interrupted as she made her way to me also embracing me into a hug, "how have you been since the last time we talked" she asked "I'm ok" I said "I'll leave you two to talk" my dad Dias heading upstairs "so what would you like to talk about today" my mother asked and we took our seats on the couch " I just feel like I need more advice on what to do" I said "what do you think you need to do" she relied back "I know I definitely need to apologize to him, but what if he doesn't accept it, what if he hates me for all eternity" I said, I feel muscled getting frustrated "trust me sweetie, he is not going to hate you for a eternity" she said as she rolled her eyes at my sarcasm "Ray may not want to talk to you as you right now but one day he'll come around, and I say that because I've seen these things happen. He may be upset on the outside but I know deep down on the inside he loves you and will always love you, no matter what happens, has happened or will happen. He loves you, and I want you to start believing in that" she said "thanks mom" I said giving her a hug "your welcome sweetie, I love you" she said "I love you momma" I said before  releasing and grabbing my things before heading towards the door "and remember sweetie, you are available to come by anytime you like ok, just make sure call and check before you come by though" she said, I chuckled "I will" I said before shutting the door behind me.

There goes my breakthrough.
