I walked into Gideon's apartment at about 21:00 pm, I knew he would still be awake so I didn't care about the noise, I wasn't staying here anyway, just came to grab some stuff. I walked into the entrance hall and it was completely dark, all the lights had been switched off, I turned on my flashlight app , too lazy to switch on the lights, and started towards "my room" .
The lights suddenly flicked on and I knew who did it, I turned around to see Gideon in all his glory, he wore his favorite black jeans with a black golfer and black Nike sneakers. I ignored his presence and walked away.
" Don't walk away from me" I could hear the anger and seriousness in his voice.
"I just need my stuff " I say nonchalantly
"Why, where are you going? "
" Away,  until my place is ready" I say bluntly
"Place?  When the fuck did that happen? "
"Watch how you speak to me and it happened today" I say through clenched teeth.
I walked away and went to my room to get my things,  I packed all of my stuff in my Louis Vuitton suitcase and I walked out of the room and turned off the lights...
Gideon was in the entrance  hall
"Please don't leave me I'm sorry for all of this,  I drove a wedge between us,  I need you"
"I'm not leaving you,  I'm still yours,  I just need to get away,  clear my head,  it's so early in our relationship,  we need to get to a good place for us to move forward."
"Did you buy the place?"
"Yes."
"Oh,  I thought you would ask me for my opinion."
"You'll like it..."
"Which hotel are you going to?"
"The usual one"
" I own that one now."
"What?" Oh God No , I thought to myself.
"Yes"
"So no matter where I go,  you will always be there."
"Basically yes"  he smirked.
I couldn't help the smile that creeped onto my face but I stood my ground.
"Gideon this is unhealthy,  I can't be here. I think I'm just going to go home. I'm sorry"
"This is your home Serena, please."
"No Gideon,  let me do this."
Gideon sighed and ran a hand through his hair,  like he always does when he's frustrated, I mean sure I may have been acting  a tad bit melodramatic,  however,  I was pushed into this corner,  I hadn't spoken to Gideon for two months after we broke up,  and for the past 6 months we would text everyday,  and it was beautiful,  I knew we were going to get back together,  but what I  don't get is how he still does the same things that tore us apart in the first place?! What kind of a hold does Corinne  have over him? Who the hell does this basic bitch think she is to tell MY  boyfriend  when to come over,  and how stupid is he to go running?  Ugh!!!!  Just thinking about all of this bullshit  makes me insane!! I didn't sign up for this,  I know when we first started dating back then, I  was so young and naive,  she took advantage  of that, but those days are done.  Gideon used to be my entire existence,  I  was too trusting and loving for my own good,  but that changed when I grew up  , when I saw what non toxic relationships consisted off, I'm not going to allow him to take me down a second time.. I made a decision...  I'm finally going to confront the bitch that caused my sleepless nights,  my heartbreak..  My miscarriage...  She's going to pay for screwing over the wrong female!
