Behind Her Silence

Chapter Five

I overslept, it's 11 am. Gladly it's also Saturday, layed on my bed and stared at the ceiling for a while. I started planning in my head what I should do till Monday, I really don't have another life apart from my work. The word "work" made me remember what happened yesterday, but my head was hurting a lot which made me not to think much about it.

I forced my body to get up and take a shower, then I went downstairs to eat. "Good afternoon, how was your night? Did you eat last night? How is work going? What will you do today?" Eddy smiled while asking me questions that gave me more head aches, he is an inquisitive person, most times it annoys me but that's what makes him who he is.

I obviously didn't respond to his questions not because I didn't want to but because I couldn't remember one or any question he asked. "Good morning" I said while getting some ingredients to cook.

All through that, his very protective girlfriend or partner as I call her just sat there giving me the "I'm watching you" eyes. To most people it's intimidating but to me it was normal. Me and her aren't in good terms for many reasons which I don't seem to care about, pretty sure me not caring is going to be her number one reason. I can't blame her.

Eddy who should notice how my presence upsets his partner always just tries to not intervene, smart of him but annoying for me. I really don't like her following him everywhere we go, especially coming along with him to my house.

Some would think I have feelings for him but he's just the guy who never left me to sink in a pool full of my crazy thoughts. " I should imagine life without her in it sometimes like the old days" I said to myself and smiled while holding a knife. She looked at me and tried to understand what was happening, I'm very sure she thought i was thinking of harming her. So cute.

We all spent the day doing what we wanted to do, I did nothing other than scroll through posts, sleep, eat snacks, and check for any work related issues. By the time it got dark, Eddy and his partner had left, I suppose they went for a date or an evening walk. I was finally alone, I sighed.

I continued watching my movie and by the time they got back, i had slept.

"Wow, she has slept. So early" Prisca said while staring. " Tomorrow is Sunday, she sleeps early on Saturdays" Eddy replied which for sure didn't make her happy.
