That Bitch..

title of your story

I got back to my apartment around 2 p.m. Sandra was home..I did not have to take care about Roxanna's birthday gift, cause Sandra already took care of it. She had an  idea, so I just gave her some money. The kitchen was a mess..There was wrapping parer everywhere, some ribbons and tape..Sandra was in her room..i could hear her talking to somebody on the phone. By the tone of her voice and her "I'm soo cool altitude, I could tell that se was talking to some guy.

I walked around the table to look what was she trying to create.

"I need you to sign the card for Rox," She came out of her room towards me. "Where did you sleep last night Girl?" She asked as she was trying to find the birthday card in the mess on the table. I did not feel like to answer that question..

"You look really tired..Long night?" She was irresistible.

"Not long enough." I blushed.

"Ohh, I see..who was the lucky one? Here!" She found the card and gave it to me with some pen.

"Matteo." I took the black card with the sparkling skulls on it from her hand. It was a cute card..

"Matteo...that's sound familiar.." She was thinking while I singed the card..I did not read the message above, I just put my signature on it.."Oh, wait the minute..that Romeo?"

"Well..he is not that romantic anymore.." I try to take back all that bad things I told her about him..He was kind of lover boy to me before, and it was really annoying, but he was a different person last night..he was fun.

"Where did you spend the night? At his magic Castle?" Sandra was trying to joke around and make of him..

"Kind of..at Savoy hotel.."

"What?"

I knew it will make her shut up.. not many people can stay in this hotel over night. I could swear by her face expression, that she was not buying it for a second.

"How did he pay for it?"

"He gambled.."

"Where in Vegas? Do you have an idea how much that rooms are?"

I closed the pen and gave her the card back. Matteo's financial situation was not my business and it was hers business either.

"Which time are we leaving? I met Hugo downstairs and he said he can give us a ride.." I wanted to make sure that I have enough time to get ready..

"You know Darren will take us.." She said like its not big deal..Darren? I taught that I will never hear that name again..

"Really? Are two talking?" I tried slowly..

"Yes..of course we do Michaela..why? Is there a problem?" She walked sat at table and started to clean the mess. I could not believe it...I walked to the fridge- not because I was hungry or thirsty, but to have reason to stay in the kitchen..

"I don't know..I taught that you two broke up after that problem."

"Which problem?"  - Did she seriously asked that?

"When he used you as a punching bag.."

She gave me a angry look. "Seriously Michaela? We had an argument that's it..Couples are fighting all the time.."

I closed the fridge still in shock. Oh my God, was she at the same hospital as me? I was ready to say something she would probably not like, but my cell phone started to ring. She was saved..

It was Karmel.. It's been awhile I did not talk to him, so I answered..

"Hey Stranger..I was starting to be worry about you.." He said. "Last week I was regretting to not spending the over your place..cause I was thinking that it is the reason why are you not talking to me anymore."

The memory of that night flashed in my head..I could see myself and Max rolling in the sheets..I shook that image out of my mind.

"I'm sorry I was so busy passed week.." What the lame excuse, but it works every time..

He wanted to get together..

"Sure..Today is my friends birthday party..what about Saturday?"

Saturday worked.

"Oh my..you are not wasting any time, huh?" Sandra appeared in my bedroom's door.

"It was not Matteo..It was Karmel." I winked at her.
