Wrong Injection

CHAPTER 6

"Lately Veronica is acting weird, she doesn't pick my calls, and when I ask her on a date or ask her to spend the weekends at my place she gives me funny excuses. Whenever she's with me, she does not answer her phone calls and it worrisome." I shared my problems with Gabby in my office, I couldn't stand Veronica's changed in attitude.

"Sultan I don't really get you buddy, why stress over a girl you know you don't love. Ain't you being weird? come to think of it, Veronica is a super model and I wonder why she wants to carry your child so bad. For all I know, having a child is the last thing on the mind of a model, but why does Veronica wants to carry a child. Especially when she is so young and beginning to soar higher in her career. Something does not add up, and moreover she is a daughter of a mafia. What is wrong with you Sultan King West?"

Gabby said the hard truth, leaving me speechless and stirring uncomfortably in my seat. I really wanted to make Veronica my woman but something wasn't feeling right. "But I can't seem to let her go."

"And why is that? Are you aware of the fire you are playing with? Her father despises you, you almost got killed by this man, reason up Sultan. Why risking your life for someone you do not have genuine feelings for?"

"I like Vero Gabby." I said knowing well I did not like her that much but I didn't know why I wanted to keep her.

"Why the fuck you lying? If you claim you like her that much, why haven't you officially made her your girlfriend? Why do you see her as a whore when you two are having sex? Why is that?" He asked but I stayed quite because I didn't know what to say to him. "Even your mom dislikes her and that should be enough prove to ask her out of your life, you are playing with your life man."

"Gabby you are making this harder for me, please say no more." I said and leaned back in my swivel chair, wrapping my mind over my situation-ship with Veronica. I just couldn't let go of her and I didn't know why.

"Upon all the beautiful women in New York City, you chose to move with a Mafia's daughter? Who in a normal state of mind would do that?"

"Gabby honestly you are making things even worse for me, can we not talk about this, please?" I said and he scoffed.

"Okay what about the insemination you guys went ahead and do in spite of me telling you not to?" He asked and I huffed before rubbing my face in total frustration.

"It was unsuccessful." I said and he laughed.

"Wait what? You mean even insemination couldn't get her pregnant?" He asked and I nodded.

"This is shocking, you guys tried every shit to have a child but it didn't working, is she some kind of a barren?" He said and I squeezed my face instantly not liking what he said, it was too honestly.

"Enough Gabby, enough. Please say no more." I tried as much as possible not to sound rude and angry even though I was.

"Alright, so what's your next plan? Try another insemination? Or you guys would consider an adoption." He teased and I clenched my jaw.

"Gabby." I called calmly but deadly and he surrendered, then I rolled my eyes. He was just making matters worse for me, and it would be better if we don't talk about it anymore.
