Only in my dreams

Women's gut

When your woman intuition kicks in, it is more likely correct. Although I was told that it's not true but only some sort of women's irrational paranoia, something is off.

I was down stair preparing my snack, my dad stood beside me. He was assessing me. "You know for a fact that we don't like that man. You can start dating anyone, we'll support you but not him", dad started. "Dad, didn't we talked about this? Why can't you just give me a break on this?", I answered. "You're going nowhere young lady. Not without my permission, and not without Belle", my dad yelled furiously. "I'm leaving in a week's time but it's not a pass for you to go anywhere with that creature", dad continued. I was stunned that finally he is talking. But I calmed myself down. 'Why would dad say something like that, not just him but also my other friends. They don't like him...No..not that they don't like, they despised him so much', I told myself. Dad went upstairs to prepare his baggage, mom just followed him.

I'm so dead bored, I could not go out because they are really are my parents. They left, yes. But they didn't give me my allowance. Neither my brothers would want to give me money until I cook for them or do the grocery shopping. Alright then, I'll rot here.

At school, "Hey girl!! Where have you been?" Asked Anna, one of my friends and a freshman student. "I am just around, busy in a way. Why? :-D", I answered. She held me by my arms and lead me somewhere unconspicuous, somewhere in the cafeteria, she was searching. "Gotcha!", she said. I was confused. "See that girl facing the entrance door? That short hair and fair?", Anna said. "Yes. Why?", i asked. "She's the new girl of your boyfriend", Anna continued. I was stunned, I didn't know how would I react until I unconsciously uttered "the nerve of that creature!".

'Oh! Goodness..', I gasped. I fell asleep. It was a bad dream though. 'How vivid things are', I told myself.

My phone rang, and a message appeared. It was Maggie, one of my long time friends.

Maggie: Girl, where are you at?

Me: hey! Watssup? Here home, rotting myself. Why?

Maggie: thank God that finally you broke up with him. :-)

Me: whoah! Careful with your words girl. We didn't break up. We're still together. What made you say that?

Maggie: why? What?!

Me: I know you despised him so much, but what made you say that?

Maggie: Girl, sorry to tell you, but he's with someone and I think they are together...as in you know 'together'.

I felt as if cold water splashed all over my body. I could not think. As if my heart suddenly stops to beat. I wanted to kill him together with that girl. 'The nerve of that creature!', I told myself.

Me: Alright then,where are you right now?

Maggie: I'm here at the cafeteria in our college building. :-D
