Revenge (Urban)

Chapter 26

Jasmine POV

"You hungry?" I asked Mario as he entered the kitchen. He walked around the kitchen and grabbed and apple and a water bottle from the fridge before answering me.

"Nah. I'm good." He said.

"What are your plans for today?" I asked him as I turned the stove off and placed the last pancake on the plate with the other pancakes I made.

"I'm about to go work out then I got meetings." He said. He grabbed his stuff then left out the kitchen. I sighed and shook my head.

He's been giving me the cold shoulder for the past couple of days and it's killing me inside honestly. I feel like as if I'm walking on eggshells all the time now and I just want him to not be mad at me anymore. I realize why he's mad but I also want him to see it from my perspective. He can't keep running my life. He has 4 kids and I'm not one of them.

"Jasmine!" I heard Tammy yell. Soon she appeared in the kitchen. She must have arrived when Mario was leaving.

"Good morning." I gave her a hug. "How you doing?"

"I'm chilling. Pregnant as ever.  The real question is, how are you doing?" She said, referring to Mario being pissed.

"I'm alright I guess. Mario is still being cold towards me. I didn't think he would be this mad honestly."

"I told you! You can't get anything past Mario. Homeboy got connects in any way you could imagine. There was no possible way your little adventure was gonna go unnoticed. And picture of you flooded Instagram, looking naked and shit. You gonna make Mario catch a case." She laughed.

"Ugh, I'm so done. How do I even fix this?" I asked.

"You don't. You just have to wait for him to get over it." She shrugged.

"You know that he got so mad that night that he ripped up all my dresses! I was shocked. I never knew he could get so mad about clubbing." I rolled my eyes.

"I believe it. I don't know why you always be trying Mario's big and aggressive loving ass. He looks like he can flick you across the room." She joked.

"Haha, very funny. I don't try Mario on purpose; it just happens and it's like as if everything pisses him off. He's happy when I'm home being a housewife." I said.

"I don't think that. I think he just loves you so much that he wants to know where you are and that you're safe. You're safe in this big ass, guarded house. A few nights ago, he didn't know where you were or if you were even safe. I don't blame him for being mad." Tammy shrugged.

"I get why he's mad but I don't think he should be THIS mad. It's been like 3 days and we haven't even had sex. Shit, if he's not getting it from me, he must be getting it from somebody else."

"No no no Jasmine. Don't go acting crazy and accusing Mario about anything without hard eveidence and proof. He'll get even more mad. Don't do it. Plus, he was just talking about how he wants you to get pregnant again." Tammy brought up.

"I'm not gonna say anything to him but I'm still gonna have my suspicions. And yeah he wants me to be pregnant so that I can just stay in the house more." I rolled my eyes.

"Alright, you're crazy and over dramatic. You being pregnant has nothing to do with you leaving the house or being in the house. Shit, don't you see my big ass stomach and I'm still out and about all the damn time."

"Well Anthony is different than Mario." I mumbled.

"You know just as much as I know that there are some missing screws in your brothers head and that he's crazy as fuck. Shit, Mario is calm compared to Ant." She said which is true.
