Brandon

It was really good to have Monica back. My mother was excited as she thought Monica's presence will knock sense to my head. I helped her with the bag and take it to my room. All she did was to rest. I don't think I will be able to cope with Gabriella. I should just end things with her because ignoring her it's not working. she is unable to read between the lines. I texted her.

Brandon: Hey Gabriella it will be wrong if I keep this to my self.
Gabriella: What is going on?
Brandon: Monica is pregnant, she is expecting my child
Gabriella: I hope it won't affect us ever since you are done with her
Brandon: I thought I am done with her until this pregnancy, I want to be there for my baby
Gabriella: Being there for her doesn't mean you are forced to get back with Monica
Brandon: I am sorry but I have no choice but to go back to her, I am cutting this thing of us off I am sorry that I just did it again
Gabriella: Why do you always have to hurt me?
Brandon: I am feeling bad for what I did to you, just know that I loved you but warning never came in time. I didn't mean to hurt you
Gabriella: We both know that you have other options but your option was to hurt me, do not apologize to me for what you choose, I wouldn't be surprised you always choose her over me because you see her through rose-colored glasses
Brandon: You are one unique special soul don't ever doubt yourself
Gabriella: I can't be good enough for you(She was staring at the mirror. She captures her reflection then she throws the mirror to the floor. Her image is distorted screaming, "Is it worth it anymore?")
Brandon: I love you but I can't be with you I am sorry

The movement made by Monica took me out of my thoughts.

Monica: Are you okay?
Brandon: Yes, you are awake? ( She said that in her sleepy voice) How are you feeling, are you still tired?
Monica: I am starving
Brandon: I will get you something to eat
Monica: I will do it myself thank you, I don't know what I want I will have to select
Brandon: If we have enough food for selection ( I could see the disappointment on her face)
Monica: ( for seconds I thought I was still in that mansion but no) I will see what to eat
Brandon: Go on go and help yourself then

She dragged her feet as she goes to the kitchen. I still find it hard to accept that she's living with me. Few minutes after she departed I heard a knock on the window. I forgot about Clara damn, I went to the window.

Clara: Open up
Brandon: No you are not getting in, I am coming!!
Clara: Open the window, I don't hear you
Brandon: You are making noise Clara, you want everyone to know that you are here
Clara: You want me to scream?
Brandon: Fuck okay fine( I opened the window she got in, at least today it didn't hurt like last time) I told you that I am coming you didn't have to go in
Clara: I know my way to your room and this luggage?
Brandon: A friend is here, please keep your voice low!!
Clara: Who is a friend Brandon, I mean a female friend!!
Brandon: How did you know it's a female
Clara: This bag is pink for fuck sake, what is going on Brandon!
Brandon: Are you jealous? that's cute
Clara: Are you cheating on me?
Brandon: You are making unnecessary noise Clara, I told you it's for a friend
Clara: fuck that, I don't care who could be hearing this conversation, my interest is to know who this bag belongs to
Brandon: Stay calm I will tell you....shit somebody is coming hide
Clara: who could it be I am not hiding!!
Brandon: shut up and hide stupid!!
Clara: Where am I going to hide?
Brandon: The closet ( she stopped in her tracks and stare at me confused)
Clara: What about it?
Brandon: Hide in the closet dummy( she quickly ran to the closet and create a spot for herself and got in, I went to lock the closet. After a minute Monica got in, I pretended like I was talking through the phone call while cussing)

Monica

Monica: I was in the kitchen eating when I hear noises from his room. It was like two people talking or fighting because their voices were loud enough to reach to me, I swear I heard a female voice. I went to the room I found Brandon in the middle of the room pressing his phone, he was a bit distorted.

Monica: I swear I heard a female voice in here
Brandon: A female voice in here, I was on a phone call and I had a loudspeaker on
Monica: So you were talking with a female?
Brandon: Just a lady from my work
Monica: What work? I didn't know you have a work
Brandon: Baby I was about to tell you about it all
Clara: What!! Baby? open up this Closet Brandon
Monica: What the fuck is going on here Brandon, who is in the closet?
Brandon: Nobody, you are just imagining things, are you done eating?
Monica: You think I am crazy, or you saying I am crazy?
Clara: Brandon open this closet a want to get out
Monica: Where are the keys?
Brandon: I don't know
Monica: Brandon where are the fucken keys!!
Brandon: Baby I can explain
Monica: What are you explaining? I need the keys for your closet!! ( He hand me the keys, I went to the closet and found a little girl that they were fighting over the other day)
Clara: What the fuck is this?
Brandon: I told you, Clara, she's just a friend so she had a disagreement with her parents that's why she is here
Clara: I am sorry and congratulations on your pregnancy, oh by the way nice to finally meet you Monica, my boyfriend always talks about your friendship with him
Monica: Oh so your boyfriend told you in how he screwed up his friend and impregnate her? Did he tell you that now her friend is homeless because of the pregnancy?
Clara: She is lying right?
Brandon: Yes she is lying, Monica how could you do this to me, why will you lie about me? I knew you were always jealous but I never thought it would come to this extent. After what I have put myself through to help you and you only do this to me?
Monica: Then if I am lying why did you have to hide in the closet?
Clara: Now this is confusing, why did you make me hide? and again you called her baby are you dating her?
Brandon: I...
Monica: Now he can't talk, ha ha ha that's funny I really enjoy this
Brandon: I am sorry I...
Monica: Let me go out, and give the two of you some space

I went out, I was truly broken I can't lie. I called William but I tried to compose myself to prevent him to hear that I am breaking down.

William: Hey Monica I was about to call you to notify you that I had a safe journey and I reached home
Monica: Okay, I was just thinking of you
William: Are you okay?
Monica: Yes I am good thanks
William: Are you sure you good, I am not convinced. There is something wrong with you
Monica: I made a decision to take your offer William
William: What offer?
Monica: To accept you and let you play the fathering part to my baby
William: Wow plus my father insisted that we should pay damages. So when should I send my family?
Monica: I still have to talk with my parents about this
William: I believe such change will make your parents accept your pregnancy, knowing that you have a reasonable partner beside you, I am telling you they will accept our baby
Monica: Let me go and talk with them right now
William: Isn't it a bit late?
Monica: It's now or never and right now there is nothing that is keeping me here
William: Okay good luck, if they chase you out notify me so that I come to collect you
Monica: Okay I will get back to you
William: Okay I love you Monica
Monica: I love you too
Brandon: Who are you talking with?
Monica: It doesn't matter to you Brandon who do you think you are to be asking me that question after what you have done to me?
Brandon: I am sorry Monica, I just...
Monica: Do not try to explain yourself, the message was clear to me, you choose her over me, You denied me in front of her. I just felt stupid and worthless before that kid. They always talk about disrespect but what you did is humiliation. So don't come before be apologize while you just played me for a fool and about the accommodation do not worry about me I will be leaving before the end of today
Brandon: She dumped me because of you I can't let you leave me
Monica: Let me see, well I am no longer in a confusion, you lied to me, you betrayed me, you cheated on me so go on leave I just want to see you exiting my life
Brandon: Monica, I am sorry for all the things I did to you I wasn't thinking straight I don't know what has gotten into my head
Monica: Go on keep on lying ( he was trying to get closer) Stay where you are don't come any closer. Why don't you care? I gave my all to you, my heart, my tears but I was never enough to you. I was there for you when no one was. It doesn't matter anyways you will see all my effort while I am gone
Brandon: Is there anything I could do to make you dry your eyes?
Monica: Well these tears, they are just there to show how badly I have been hurt you don't know how torn I am from the inside but anyways I believe I was blinded by love as I couldn't see all your true colors but I am glad I did, even though it's too late
Brandon: I am sorry please forgive me
Monica: I will try to forgive you someday

I couldn't stand to see him because his presence breaks me apart. I just went home, I had enough for a day and I know going home is another drama but I will rather face my demons than having to spend the night with Brandon
