broken

chapter 15

"How many years have i been off life' I asked Dan and Drew who looked at me like i was dead.

'uhm, 3minutes' Dan replied with a soft laugh

'what happened to you all of a sudden? you fell to the hard floor, I was scared!' Dan looked at me as he awaited answers.

i couldn't cry, i couldn't laugh. i was hurt deep inside. My best friend.

"i need to go home" i said.

"here, let me drive you" Dan offered his hands to pull me up.

"no, I'm good, I'll drive myself"

'but Emma....' Drew said

"I said i am good!" i snapped.

'Here, take Kim's phone and when she wakes up, tell her i know about her secret. i need to go, see you at home Dan' i turned away as i felt four eyes watch me leave.

i wasn't even scared anymore, I was hurt. my body ached, my head ached, my legs were weak. I was weak. Whatever Jason wishes to do, he should. I've endured worse anyway.

i shed tears as i drove Dan's car...i screamed, i shouted, i just wanted to die. what did i do to deserve this?

Money?? money made everybody turn against me, everybody apart from my girls and Mrs potter. at least, not the one i know of.
Was it that bad to be born with a silver spoon and still be with it?

i got to Dan's house, picked from the smallest of my belongings to the biggest- my house remote control.

i drove to my house, locked myself and switched on all the lights...I was done hiding.

i looked for a bat and walked around my house majestically with tears in my eyes...I was going mad and I could feel it. I looked at my glass shelf, and broke it with the bat. everything in the shelf was down too.

I felt relieved and wanted to hit more.

my TV, the one my kids loved so much....i brought it down as well, yelling as i hit all breakables.

The glass table? down too.

I went to my kitchen, broke all the ceramics i could find, the microwave, i smashed it too. i went back to my sitting room, smashed all that was smashable.

i yelled
i cried
i screamed
i pulled my hair
i hurt myself with the broken glass pieces
i wanted to kill myself but then i thought about my girls.

i went to my room and continued wallowing in pain and sorrow.
it was my husband
now, Kim??
who was next in line to betray me? I went to my closet, I looked at that same mirror and smashed it with my already bloody hands...it hurt but betrayal hurt worse.

The devil you know is better than the angel you don't know.

The person i trusted most in the world was sleeping with my husband.
I put one to one and two to two.

i cried as i thought about the little things that i ignored and didn't count.

When Jason hit me and i was in the hospital, she didn't visit.
She gave my number to Dan and wanted me to be with him.
She rushed home that day we got back from pizza palace.
She was late for my divorce party because she said she had work to do.
At the party, after Jason came in with Brittany, she came in with Dan.
she ignored both Jason and Brittany.

i was played for a fool.

i cried till i was tired and i eventually slept off.

••••••••••••••••••••
The next day, i didn't even try to fix a thing. i just walked out of my house to get my car and after getting my car, i retired back to my house. i had food and that was all that mattered.

i switched my phone on for any God damned person and i switched the lights of my house off. I ate and dined in darkness. there was no tv to watch anyway. I cried and ate because that was all i could think of.

Dan called, Drew called, Kimberly called.

THE BITCH.

For two weeks,
i watched as they all called and sent messages. Dan was worried sick, Kim begged for forgiveness, Drew did both.

Did she tell them already and why was Drew supporting her??

i locked myself away from wicked people, from pretense, from life.

There was nothing to enjoy in life if the two people you once loved betrayed you because of money, envy and greed.

They wanted me dead because of money. They all called for two weeks and i ignored them and their calls.

Dan🐯🐯🐯

I watched her as she turned away to leave. i wanted to follow her but Drew pulled me back.

'She's been through so much man, let her cool off" he said.

I knew he was right but her going alone was dangerous and i was scared for her.

'speaking of a secret, what do you think is wrong?' Drew asked

'i think there is something we are missing out here, she got weak after she read a message or so from Kim's phone and after 5minutes she looked angry" i replied

I pressed the phone to read the message and all i could say was:

Oh my God, Emma.

She was no where to be found in the darkness but i was sure to meet her at home so i didn't go after her. .

'What is it man?' Drew asked.

i gave him the phone to read and he was speechless.

"we need to go after here before she does something crazy!!" Drew shouted.

we ran to Drew's car as Emma had taken mine. Drew drove me home and to my surprise, she wasn't there. i screamed her name, Drew looked everywhere. Her things were not there either.

'Her house' i yelled.

Drew drove to her house and it was locked. just as we left it before.

all black.

We gave up finding her as we went to Drew's house to sleep. yeah, we didn't go back to Kim. what more can a person live for? Emma has gone through what a normal woman should go through.

We called work to tell them Drew was terribly sick and he was admitted..we lied actually.
we were given a month leave from work since i wouldn't want to fly a plane without my best pal and they didn't want to lose two of the best.

we didn't go to the hospital until after three days, we were both angry for different reasons but we eventually left for the hospital and it was because the doctor called Drew since he was the one who brought Kim to the hospital.

we got to her room and found her awake.

'hi' i said dryly to her.

'hi guys'

Drew didn't even look at her, i guess he was disgusted.

'Drew, what is wrong and where's Emma? she asked

'for now, we don't know. but she said we should let you know that she knows about your lil secret' i said.

'what?' she asked.

'Don't even dare lie this time'! Drew yelled as his emotions spoke for him.

'we know about your dirty secret with Emma's ex husband, Jason' Drew yelled once more.

she didn't try to talk but instead she burst out tears.

'Kim, what did you do?'
