CHAPTER 44

Chapter 44:

      ★JAYDEN★

  I found myself sleeping on the floor, traces of bleeding under my nose. I looked at the time, its already so late to go to work. Dressing casually, I strode out of my room. My mom was wearing a different face (worried). "Jay, your dad wants to see you."
"Why mom?" I asked, she did not reply, held my hand and followed me to his room.
"You, go out." My father ordered her, he faced the window with his stick in his hand. After my mother left and closed the door, he made his way to me. "Knee down!!" He ordered. What's all these for? I put my one knee on the floor, looking at his face,is he serious? Before putting the other down carefully.
He Raised the stick and laid it heavily on my shoulder. "You're a bastard!" He hit me again. "What sort of a son are you?" He continuously cursed as he hit me. Maybe the fact I missed his important dinner.
I bow my head with respect as he continue to hit me. "You fought your twin? Why? For a mere chaff!!!" He landed another whip on me. "I hate that you're this son I now need." This word sounded more loudly my ears.

     'I HATE YOU'RE THE SON I NOW NEED'
  He never liked me, just Using me, what more do I have to gain for him to like me genuinely.
"How dare you hit your brother for a woman? Who is she!!! You're ready to destroy your family for an outsider???"
Another whip landed on me again.  "Last night, i told you to come home for dinner, what did you do?!!!" He yelled so loud and hoarse.

     "You went out of town to hit your brother for a woman who's only playing you both." His words sounded so bad on me, I can see clearly, Bella doesn't like me, she's just a little gullible fool who follows everything easily.
He turned away with his stick after hitting me for so long. He was really furious. He watched the view outside before speaking: "I never want to hear you leave this side of the country to see that imp. When you do, you should also take flowers along with you for her little burial."
"Father don't threaten me with her life, she is not just anything. I've agreed to do what every you want, no other person should be dragged to this." I said.
He used his stick to hit my laps, I go more down with both palms on the floor. "I didn't let you speak young man! When you do what you want, I do what I want!!! We can both respect ourselves so no one intrudes."
"If i can not be allowed to see her, Brad should not too..." I said. I'm waiting for his reply, he does not reply, he was quuet for a long time before saying: "send the papers. Now go out."
I stood up, starred at him standing close to the window for a while before leaving. My mother was still at the door. I did not bother to look at her. She followed me and held my shoulder to catch up with me.
      "What did your-"
      "Ah mom! Don't touch me." My shoulder really hurts... He hit me so hard, I'm not sure I can recover so quickly.  "Lemme help you, you'll feel better." She said as he led me to her room. "Baby, don't anger your dad, you know how he is. Why did you hit your blood for a girl???" She asked.  "I saw his face was really swollen, sqo you want to kill your brother?" My mother said. She rubbed the cream on me and said. "Stay away from that little girl, she's not your age, and also, she is not worth loosing everything for." She put her hand on my shoulders. "Jay, promise me you will do away with her, you don't need poor people, and you see, you're the one going to disturb her. She doesn't search for you like a mad dog." She brought out so pictures for her drawers in an envelop, handing them to me. "Your father asked someone for these. She's doing well without you, struggling hard. Don't be a problem to both you and her. And again, Iris is waiting for you, you can be nice to go see her downstairs" she lifted my face and dragged my chin, forcing me to smile,  "with such a smiling face, the world is yours, my little Prince." She said.  "Jay is finally here!" Iris said with a wide smile like she had been waiting for Me all her life. She got up and walk to meet me, hugging me...
"Where were you last night? You didn't come for dinner why?"
     "I went-"
"He was busy with work." My father completed, interrupting me. I slowly removed her hands from my waist. "Why are you here?"
"We have to buy my wedding dress, I prefer my groom pick that." She hugged me more tightly.
My face got blacken. This marriage, I'm been forced to marry her even though I can never approve of this.
My Mother dropped tea on the table for both of us... "You both can have it while its hot." She said before leaving. "Jay, can we both speak outside?" Iris whispered. She held me by my wrist and pulled me outside. Sitting on the benches, she started: "do you have a girlfriend?" She asked, widening her eyes, while waiting for answers from me. I can barely reply, I sit more relax and watched her, "what do you think Iris. What if i say I have someone I'm crazy about? Someone i prefer to kill my brother for? What then?" I can't stop smiling, seriously??? She's asking this. "I would say you break up and forget that girl, I don't want to share my man with any mistress and I can never accept illegal relationship. You tell her off." She got up and walked away.
