In The Heart Of Her Mind.

Just A Taste.

       

"Are you sure you guys don't want anymore cake Micah?" My mother asked for the billionth time.

"No mamma, were fine." I waved her off.

"The cake is very delicious Mrs. Delgado, thank you." Bella smiled at her and accepted the cake anyway turning my mothers frown into a small smile before she walked off to the kitchen.

"Your mother is sweet but can be a pain sometimes." Bella rolled her eyes before pushing the cake away and snuggling closer to me.

"Tell me about it." I agreed.

We were at the family house. My mom always threw some get together twice a year for whatever reason she had. I for one have always been forced to witness these parties since birth and today was just one of those days. The only reason why I wasn't already dead from the painful cringe worthy atmosphere of my family members all in one room, making a shit load of noise, was my girlfriend under my arm.

"So, Isabella. What are your plans after uni?" My little sister Ava asked as she chomped down a sandwich.

"I was actually thinking of working at the firm along side your brother when John gets it all settled for him." Bella turned to smile at me.

"Oh, thats nice. I kinda expected you to say you were gonna work at a crack house or something-" Mia nudged Ava with her elbow before shooting her a glare, leaving Bella confused and I, Desperately wanting to wipe the stupid smirk Ava held.

"I don't know what game your playing or what your implying but at least i'll have a job. What was it that happened to you again? yes you got kicked out of two colleges you attended. its nice that your showing everyone pieces of you that got you sent away." Ava spilt the nearest glass of water on Isabella causing everyone to focus on the matter at hand.

"Thats just a taste bitch." she smiled. Bella stood there, still and drenched and I the same, but I wasn't drenched, only silently asking God to give the the patience to not assassinate my sister in front of my entire blood line.

"Take her upstairs." I say each word carefully to Mia and she quickly takes Bella away.

As soon as they leave the room i pulled Ava into a separate one.

"loosen up your grip next time, will ya? I don't wanna loose an arm-"

"What the fuck is wrong with you Ava?! Of all the days that you could possibly be a fucking idiot you chose today? Bella was humiliated in front of our entire family!" I yelled in her face.

"Oh and i wasn't the one humiliated? i only asked what she was going to do with her miserable life with you and she had to take a low blow and talk about me getting kicked out of college." she equally yelled back.

"maybe it only hurt cause everything she said was true. your a disgrace with no plans for the future and you have the audacity to question what someone wants to do with their life?" i glare at her.

"Micah." I turned back to face Mia with a look of disbelief.

"How can you say-"

"No Mia, thats how he is. i'll be gone in the morning so you guys don't have to see me." Ava brushed past me and left the room with Mia calling after her but in return no response.

"I came here to tell you your girlfriends in dry clothes. You can go see her."

•••

"Here we go." i say as i stand in front of the door to the room before opening it slowly.

"Ah, Micah how are you?" This man, Elijah, smiled at me.
