Read along to fin...
The sound of my phone ringing woke me up, i picked it from the shelf, Unknown number! Maybe it's Jayden. I picked the phone and answered "Hello?"
"Hello dear." It's a female voice, who's this? "Bella, can we meet up?" Who wants to meet up now? My life is already frustrating
"Hi." She said as she saw me walking over. She was wearing a black long dress and a dark shade, smiling at me, she had a dark Aura, I could never at peace standing close to this woman. "Good morning." I greeted back with a forced smile "Bella, did you attend the uni?" This is the first question she asked as we entered the coffee shop. "No..." I bow my head down, unable to complete my words. "No, i didn't." I replied. She can only take me below her son, I'm not worth him, but i can try to be up to his standard, they just have to give me a chance. "Do you want to go to the uni, i mean if you have a chance, will you complete your schooling?" I nod slightly, i can't pick her a reason for her questions. "What is it?" She asked. "Yes, I will be more than glad to complete schooling."
She dipped her hand in her bag, still smiling at me, brought out an envelope, "for you Bella." I opened it, An admission letter from the national university of Seoul, Korea. "Why are you giving me this? I didn't apply?" I asked with uneasiness, these people can not do anything without gain. "You've gained an admission, you have an opportunity to study, don't ruin this." She smiled.
"And Jayden? does he know about this?" I was staring deeply at her deceiving eyes, she put her hands on mine, "Bella, be more concerned about your future, it's best for you dear." "I don't want to go there, it's too far from everything I have and Jayden, i know he won't agree to this."
"Bella..." She made a frowning face. "Do you know why most weed are removed from the farm? Because they are unwanted. In your case, I want to make you have a bright future, you're ruining my family. Don't get me started on my other son. Both my children can't concentrate, my home is slowly breaking." She started to shed some tears.
"That's a lie, I did not do anything wrong. I don't get so close, how did I make him conflict with his brother. Listen Madam, you know Better than anyone, you sons never agree with each other, why blame it on me?"
"Listen, let me make it clear to you, you can't marry my son, are you not ashamed? Jayden is older than you, a lot of people will think he's accusing a little girl in puberty. Can you go for your age?"
"I've seen fifteen years gap, we're not commiting any sins!"
"You don't want to hear me out right? My son is not of your Age, not of the same class with you, neither of the same background. I would never sit still and watch my child marry a girl without a Family Background, an orphan! Bella, i like you as a person, and want to give you a brighter future so you have something to boast of because I'm a mother, I know what your mother must be feeling up there. If you want a rich man to marry, i will get you suitors, just have your degrees first and cut off every contact you have with my him. He has so much on his shoulder, he should focus on that. He needs a woman who can support him, not a girl who would get into trouble and always need him to drag her out."
"I can't, And i beg you, don't talk of my mother, you know nothing, no one knows!" I uttered fearlessly without making eye contact, her words still tormented me, sinking deeply in my head, i spoke again without reasoning. "No, i will never cut off contact with him. Jayden has promised to stay with me all my life and so will i. I won't deny our relationship for any reason!"
"And what will you tell people? When they see you both incompatible souls together? Huh?!" Her eyes started to brighten with fury in them. "The world can talk as much as they want... They always will, and it won't help, it never did. But i believe it's only people who sees selfish gains in anything at all, only these set of people will take us as wrong." Saying this, i got my bag and left. I know i should have given her the best impression about me, but this is definitely too much for me, she's insulting me right to my face, My father decieved my mother, so where is he now? I can never forgive any injustice against my mother.
"Sadly, you'll have to leave dear, I will make sure of that!" She pushed me from the door and got out. Is this how a Rich noble lady should be?
My phone started to ring with Jayden as the caller, "Hello Bella?" He said why staring deep in his side of the phone. "You look sad why?" It's not some voice call that i can hide my pain in my voice, he sees every expression from my face. "Just so sad you left so soon." I replied, wiping the tears from my Face. He doesn't need to know what his mother is trying to do, just forget it. "Ha! You're becoming clingy and obsessed, more than expected. Wait-" he brought his face more closer, "is that tears i see?" My weak eyes never seize the chance to cry.
"Don't laugh me, bastard!" I wipe my tears and smile for false sake. While still on the line, i boarded a taxi. "How's your Dad?" I changed the topic. "He just started his treatment, what can i say, same" he laughed a bit. This is more than just mere laughter, he's really stressed and i shouldn't be adding to that. "Where did you go Bella, also where are you heading now?" "I went to get some books from the stall. I was feeling bored so-" "Want to go back to school?" He suddenly asked. "No!" It's just these books, nothing else." "OK then, will call you a little later, bye." He kissed his side of the phone, impersonating the phone as me and was about to hang up, "Bella, give me a kiss." He asked in a lustful tone.
"When you get back." I laughed as my mood was already lit up. One minute or more with him was all i needed to forget my reality... The hope he gives me, I'm not sure i can get anywhere. "Ha! Are you playing with my feelings? I called you and now you do this! I won't have mercy on you Bella." I try to hold my mouth from bursting out in laughter, cause i think by now... The taxi man must be taking me for a fool.
In some more minutes, I arrived home, Took of my scarf and crashed on the bed. The same question I ask myself daily. "When will my life stop been a mess?"
