Love The Way You Lie

chapter 9

My night has become a sunny dawn because of you

Recap:- I opened the door and exclaimed, "jack"

"What the hell are you doing here?"

Before my little brother could answer my question, Adonis walked past me and gave jack a huge hug.

"Good to see you, man."

I wondered how did Adonis know my brother, so I asked Adonis, "How do you know him?"

"He is my sister's best friend and he often visits my house, so we got along really well and we are good friends"

Adonis asked me, "By the way how do you know him?"

"He is my brother."

Jack was confused and shocked both at the same time, so he neglected our conversation and asked: "where is Suzanne?"

As soon as Jack asked this question, something clicked inside my head and all the events started to fall in its place.

I spoke to myself," Suzanne?, is she that girl for whom he ditched me? He said he went on a date with her and Adonis say's they are best friends for quite a long time...Hmm interesting."

I did all the permutations and combinations and decided to interrogate my little brother.

Adonis asked jack to close the door and be seated on the couch, As Suzanne went to buy some pastries and would return in a few minutes.

Adonis went back to the kitchen and I started to give a glare to my brother.

"What happened piggy? Why are you staring at me like I have done some crime?"

"I will ask a few questions to you my little brother and answer them honestly or I will crack your nuts."

Sweat started to drip from Jack's head as he became extremely nervous.

"The first question is, when did you start to date, Suzanne?"

"Em... I think about a month ago."

"Oh I see, you had your break up last weekend, that means you were dating your ex when you were with Suzanne."

"The second question is, why did you act in front of me post break up? so that you get support from your family if she takes a severe step?"

"Absolutely not...what the fuck are you talking about?"

I was about to smack my brother in his face but suddenly the bell rang.
Jack quickly got up from the couch and opened the door, Surprise! Surprise! You guessed it right it was Suzanne.

"Oh, baby! Welcome back come on join us on the couch."

"Who is she?"

"Oh! She is my sister, piggy... I mean Priyanka."

She warmly greeted me, hugged me and then the two of them sat on the couch, but I stood stunned because I have never seen a girl so friendly.

Adonis brought tea and a few biscuits. Our conversation consisted of a few laughs and a lot of sarcasm.

We left the house at dawn and I started to search for a cab, on the other side my brother brought a bike which Adonis lent him to take me home safely.

I was annoyed by my brother's action and I wasn't being able to forgive him. I didn't speak to my brother for the whole ride, so he tried to break the silence but I ignored him. He parked the bike in our backyard and kept the keys in his pocket.

I started to walk straight into our home, but I was held by jack, as soon as I turned I saw tears in his eyes and my heart started to melt.

I tried to control my emotions and this time I was hard on him. I didn't fall into his trap and glared at him with anger.

This time I could see a genuine apology from his side but I decided to not let go easily, so I replied him "Trust takes years to build, seconds to break, and forever to repair."

The Guilt inside him reached his limit and he hugged me tight and exclaimed sorry. I stroked his head and dragged him to the entrance of the house.

I rang the doorbell for a couple of times but no one responded it was quite strange because my mom returns from her work before dawn.

"She might have been in some kind of work piggy, so she will return soon," Jack replied in a soft voice.

I removed the spare keys from my purse and unlocked the door, the room was pitch dark so I turned on my phone's flashlight and started to find the switch to turn the lights on.

As we started to move inside the house a pungent smell started to reach our nostrils, "Is that alcohol?"

"Don't be silly jack, who the hell will drink alcohol at our house?"

As soon as I switched on the lights I saw a women lying on the floor, face first and she held a bottle of whiskey in her hand.

She looked like our mom but I didn't believe it cause that lady held alcohol in her hand and my mom hates alcohol.

I went over and turned the body, I was shocked to see that it was my mom.

She was unconscious so I started to panic and commanded jack to call the ambulance. The ambulance came within no time and my mom was taken to the hospital.

I knelt down in the ambulance and caught her hand as she laid on the stretcher.

We reached the hospital, filled the registration process and then she was admitted to the hospital.

We waited in the waiting room for the update, soon the doctor approached us and gave us the good news, " Don't worry child, she is out of danger."

I jumped off my seat in joy, thanked the doctor and asked him, "when can i meet my mother?"

He said, " she needs to rest for a couple of hours, till then you go back to your house, freshen up and let your younger brother stay here for a while."

Jack agreed with the idea and I gave a nod to the doctor and started to walk towards the exit of the hospital.

Jack handed me the keys of the bike that was given by Adonis, I rode the bike and reached home within minutes.

I entered the house and went straight to my room, I sat on my bed and started to think," why the hell did mom have the need to start drinking alcohol?"

I started to think hard and the detective side of mine told me to raid mom's bedroom.

I swiftly went to my mom's bedroom and found the place in a total mess, the clothes were out of the wardrobe and a few bottles of alcohol lied on the floor.

I started to keep the clothes back in the wardrobe and found a small diary that laid near the alcohol bottles.

I was about to read the diary but at that moment I got a call from a random number, I picked up the phone and it was Suzanne.

I wondered how did she know about the incident, then I realized obviously jack would have told her about the situation. I liked suzanne very much, she was very sweet.

I decided to clean up all the mess and then read the diary patiently. I completed my work, took the diary to my room and sat on the bed.

I opened the diary and the first page of the diary took me by a surprise

" We accept the love we think we deserve. - Samantha baker"
