I'll Show You

Chapter twenty-six

I quietly walk downstairs and over hear Justin and Hailey in the kitchen. Justin was cooking the breakfast and I heard him speaking about me.

"I'm sorry for Christina, I didn't expect that." He said softly.

"It's okay, I didn't either really. She seemed so nice and then she just turned into this mean person." She replied back.

Ha, I think she is talking about herself because that's literally what she did.

"That doesn't sound like her, I don't know why she would be like that." Justin said.

"I think she is just jealous of what you and I once had or maybe... What we still have." She responded.

I just want to deck her in the mouth. She makes me sick.

"You think?" He replies.

I made my way down to steps and find Hailey next to Justin at the stove with her hand resting on his back. Her head was resting on his shoulder as he flipped the bacon.

I made it known that I was in the room. I open the fridge and all conversations went silent. Justin looked my way and then clenched his jaw, turning his back to me.

Hailey looked over at me and rolled her eyes and then exited the room, leaving me and Justin alone.

I slam the cup on the table and pour me some soda into it.

"What's your fucking problem?" He raised his voice, turning around facing me.

"My problem? What's your problem Justin? You are the one not believing anything I say over her. I'm your girlfriend, you're supposed to believe me and trust me." I said raising my voice back.

"I do, but I heard you myself saying that stuff to her." He said defending Hailey.

"Okay, maybe because she was the one being rude to me first. You just believed her over me and she even told me you would. That's the sad part." I said pausing.

"You know, I thought I was more important to you than that. I thought I meant something to you, but I'm obviously not more important than your friends, or excuse me your "best friend" who is trying to break us up so she can get you back."

Justin clenched his jaw and looked away from me. His veins protruded out of his arms.

"I know Hailey, and I know she would never do that." He said looking me in the eyes.

My heart is really hurting at this point.

"You're so fucking naive and blind. Believe what you want, I don't care anymore, I'm leaving." I said storming out of the room.

Justin raced in front of me.

"No, stop. Why are you leaving?" He said stopping me in place.

"Just leave me alone." I said pushing pass him to get my car keys from upstairs. He followed behind me as I did so.

"Christina, you're exaggerating. Stop it. This is really so stupid of you to leave me over." He said raising his voice once again.

"Let her leave Justin, a girl knows what's best for herself." Hailey said joining in on the conversation.

Fuck you, ugh, can someone please just...

I grabbed my keys and then exited out of the bedroom after I slipped on a pair of pants.

I made my way to the front door and then opened it without turning back.

I haven't drove my car in so long.
