"I went down a road of depression once" Odell spoke as I sipped on the wine that he brung up from his basement bar "But I dealt with it in a different way, I wasn't sad every night"

"I went down a road of depression once" Odell spoke as I sipped on the wine that he brung up from his basement bar "But I dealt with it in a different way, I wasn't sad every night"

I slowly nodded and bit down on my bottom lip "What made you that way?" I asked worried since I knew stuff like that was hard to go through.

He sighed and shrugged a shoulder "I was once with this girl name Paulette" He began "She was with me a few months before I made it in the NFL and I really loved her but the love wasn't mutual, she fooled me" He looked down and I rubbed his arm "There I was giving this woman any and everything only for her to go and cheat on me"

My eyebrows knitted together as I shook my head. She must've been insane sneaking around when she had a man like this at home.

"I specifically remember coming back home when I was away for business and she had another man in the house, in my bed!" He semi yelled and closed his eyes trying to calm himself down from getting too upset "I was mad enough to catch a case that day but I knew it wasn't worth it" He chuckled darkly "I just had a feeling she would do something like that to me I was just too blind to see it, she used me for my fame and money"

"She didn't deserve you" I said low but honestly.

"You right and that wasn't the end of it" He scratched his beard "I really wasn't myself for two months"

I side eyed him "What did you do?

He looked up at me with a unreadable expression "Promise not to look at me different?"

"I promise"

He twisted his lips and nodded before speaking "After we broke up I became so disrespectful to every female I came into contact with but afterwards" He paused "We would have sex and they wouldn't care, they liked that aggressive shit" He chuckled but I didn't even crack a smile.

"I wanted to make myself think I didn't need Paulette, I would fuck a random girl just to get all that pint up anger out she made me have" He sighed "But when I was alone I would regret it and be sad that it wasn't her I was in bed with" We both shook our heads "Overall I really hated myself for disrespecting women like that, calling them out they names and all cause my parents ain't raise me that way"

I sighed "Odell I'm sure it was something else that could've helped you get over her besides fucking different girls" I said and he looked down looking like a kid who was in trouble "Did anyone help you out?"

"Yeah I had a talk with my mother after she slapped the hell out me a few times for taking that route" That part made me snicker a little bit "She told me not to walk around with that kind of attitude because some chick that didn't even love me left, it was plenty of women that would've genuinely loved to be with me for me"
