Love Comes With Agony

chapter 14

Axel's POV

"Per favore, stai zitto Sophia ... mi stai annoiando a morte" I said... She has been going on and on about a stupid topic, whether she should go for manicure and pedicure.... I don't even understand why does she even need my opinion on this.... But although I spoke in Italian and asked her to shut up... But I spoke in a calm manner so that she doesn't start a battle with me... Honestly I was tired of her...
"What did you say?" She asked crossing her hands over her chest...
"Nothing just that you look pretty" I said with a fake smirk plastered on my face...
"Awww you are so adorable... I love you... You know you are the best boyfriend in the world..." She said and kissed me on the cheeks..
With that she went away and I genuinely felt sooooo happy....
I was smiling about the fact that she finally left me alone when I saw Emmanuel walking in...
"What are you smiling about?" He asked me walking towards me... He sat down on the couch beside me and rested
his hand on my shoulder...
"Nothing just happy that Sophia finally left me to my peace..."
"What you guys broke up seriously... Finally I am so happy for you man... Never in my entire life have I felt so much better about someone breaking up..." He said and literally stood up from the couch clapping his hands together...
I laughed at his response...
"No she has been annoying me the whole morning and then finally she went up to the room..." I said and in instance his his shoulders slouched, a sad look took over that giddy face and he rolled his eyes...
"Yeah whatever" he said and went and sat down in the couch...
"Axyyy baby how do I look.." Sophia said coming down the stairs ...
"tu sophia assomigli merda assoluta ... solo per favore vattene da qui ... tutta la tua presenza mi sta facendo star male e l'intero ambiente di questa casa sta diventando tossico .. vai via già ... e risparmia il mio migliore amico Qui" Emmanuel said
"per favore, cazzo, stai zitto, non voglio una rivolta in casa mia ..." I said...
"Sono assolutamente fottutamente onesto su quello che sto dicendo".. He said, got up and walked towards the kitchen...
"Axel what's going on??" Sophia asked
"Please babe just don't worry... He is just having a rough day... I mean he recently had a break up so please don't take his words into account..." I said trying to calm her down...
"Okay you take care and I will come back in a couple of hours..." She said and left...
"What the hel bro what's wrong with you??" I asked him while walking into the kitchen...
"You know I don't like her so don't tell me anything infact I loathe her..." He said and opened the refrigerator to see what he could eat...
"But still do t have to make it so evident..."
"That's why I spoke in Italian... And she doesn't understand..."
"Yeah whatever but she is not dumb..."
"Oh please cut me some slack... Okay but by the way something is seriously wrong with you... I can sense it so would you mind telling me what it is..."
This was something I admired in Emmanuel he always knew if something was up with me... I don't know how he did that but he did... Even if I try to mask it... But he'll still catch me... No wonder he was my brother from another mother... And I loved him for being there for him in the highest of highs and lowest of lows... But it was not something I was going or even planning to tell him...
"Nothing is up with me and can you please move away from there..." I said trying to change the topic...
"Yeah right... Tell me... Before I do something very serious...". He said threatening me...
"Yeah what will you do??"
"I will um wait... Yeah I will go and tell Sophia that you are blatantly cheating on her..."
"Try her she is never going to believe you... "
"Are you sure about that Axel.... You know better than challenging me...."
"Nothing happened"
" Then why are you lying" he said blocking my way...
"Who said I am lying"
"Okay you want me to get on my knees and beg to you??"
"Listen Nuel nothing's going on and I am fine..." I said and tried to move him but he wouldn't barge...
"Please Axel I am really starting to get concerned about you... I don't want you to end up like.... You know what I mean... I can't bare to see you in a hospital all over again... It hurts bro it fucking hurts... You have no idea what I went through... Each day seeing you lying there with bandages and tubes was so fucking difficult... I didn't know what I would do...
"Pensavo che fossi morto che non saresti mai tornato dal coma ... Ho pregato e pregato Dio per la tua guarigione ... in modo che ti tenesse lontano dalla strada del pericolo ... e tu cazzo non farlo la mente mi sta dicendo che cosa sta succedendo con te ... pensi che non capisco niente .. allora mi dispiace rompere la tua bolla capisco cose che non sono stupide come la tua ragazza" He said and stopped... Breathing heavily... After sometime he came and hugged... I hugged back then gave me a glass of water to drink then motioned for him to sit down... We both sat down on the kitchen floor with beer bottles in our hands... I told him everything that had happened... Starting from Claire showing up in my office to the encounter I had with Chelsea several times... I didn't leave out any detail... He listened to me with utmost sincerity and interest... After finishing my story I felt relieved like a burden was raised from my shoulders... I looked at him.... His eyebrows were creased and he was looking straight ahead...
"What do you think Axel??" He asked still not looking at me..
"About what..." I asked
"How do you feel about all this...??"
"Honestly I don't know I mean I don't know what I should do... That day when I met Chelsea in the street I hated her sight.... But then I didn't miss the different emotions that flashed in her eyes.... When she saw it was me she was happy but then in an instant it changed to pure regret and guilt then when I yelled at her she was hurt more than anything... I have never seen her like that...!! But still I hate her and I am not willing to give her a chance cause I can't risk my heart being broken again....
"How long will you lie to yourself Axel?? Do something before it's too late... You both deserve the best.... I know what she did was wrong but just give her a chance and I can vouch on my life that you won't regret it.. and please get out of that little cloud that says that you hate her... Trust me when I say you don't, not even a bit... Maybe you don't like her cause of what she did but hate is too strong of a word for this whole thing.... Just know that whatever you decide I am there..."
"Thanks man really appreciate it..." I said, but his words were still ringing in my head... Did I really hate her???
