The Deal (GXG) -Completed/Re-Editing-

Chapter Six

ERICKA :

So , to recap ..

Seemingly, my psycho ex-girlfriend was after me, for whatever her motive was , Tamara was stuck with me in the cabin because of her parents who were crazy to get her married, and recently, another person joined the squad, my lovely girlfriend, Zoe , who convinced me - although she didn't give me much of a  choice - to move in with me for my " own protection " ; As I expected , it looks like my breakdown that day made her feel " protective " of me or something , and so now I was officially , as they say:
" under her wing " ...

***

I'll be honest, the cabin has defenitetly become more chaotic now.

[FEW DAYS LATER AFTER THE " INCIDENT" ]

-" Good morning sweetheart . I made us breakfast"

We exchange a peek on the lips and I wrap my arms around her in a back hug.

I hum . " Hm. You are so sweet "

She giggles and our attention shifts to the ear shattering sound of a tray clashing on the ground.

Tamara .

-" If we are going to share this place , you might as well spare me the PDA when I don't have to see it !"

Her toothbrush still inside her mouth as she spoke, I look at Tamara with astonishement, not that I was that surprised anymore. In fact, for the past couple of days, I have come to some few conclusions:

Tamara hates it when she sees me and Zoe touching each other.

-" Then go the other way or go blindfolded "

Zoe doesn't just take it.

-" I beg your pardon , did I speak to you ?"

and Tamara cannot stand my girlfriend's guts.

-" You didn't speak to my girlfriend either"

As if there wasn't enough drama in my life already ..

-" She is my bestfriend before she is your girlfriend "

Zoe brutally throws the flowery napkin on the counter with a thud. " You didn't just say that!-"

-" Okay, as much as I'm flattered you are fighting over me, can you both please , just , for one day, live quietly without wanting to tear each other apart ?"

-" She started it " they speak simeoultaneouly .

(Brief time skip)

Later in the morning, Tamara leaves to look for other jobs, and I get ready to leave as well; I thought I could do some digging on what - you know who - has been up to.

It has been like this for the past few days :

I rarely go out, and I stay with Zoe or Tamara unless I really had to be at the company. Then, Tamara leaves to look for a job and attend her interviews, Zoe manages her food blog and youtube channel from the cabin (She really had a lot going on, unlike how her mother made her sound) Plus, she has recently auditioned for a small casual wear company that wants to recruit her as their model representative, and she was waiting for their reply.

Sometimes, she'd ask me things like : how would I feel to have a " famous " girlfriend, or whether or not I mind it if she becomes a known figure, to which I'd laugh and shrug away; I really had way more complicated things to worry about than my girlfriend going viral.
