Unwrapping The Throne

CHAPTER SEVEN

'You cannot be serious Dylan, you mean Javice is in the same class as you are?' She asked her twin brother.

'Yes, he is and the guy doesn't talk to nobody in the class mehn, I'm surprised he even talks at all, all he does is sit down, take notes and leaves', teasing her about being in love with a bad boy, she giggled to herself .

'You have no shame bro, you're happy you're in love now right, wait till Dad finds out' Dylan said

'Brother dearest, I don't care what you say and I'll tell Dad when I want, you decide to tell him, I'll tell him how you ruined his drone'

'You wouldn't'

'Oh I so would' and like this their banter continued before Amber's phone rang

'Shut up now D, it's him' and with that, Dylan shut up while commanding his sister to put the call on speaker which she did to avoid him ruining her conversation.

*****************************************************

Jave just got off the phone with his sister who had apparently being slapped by their mother and was having a hard time controlling her tears and with the conversation he just had, he regretted ever leaving them alone by themselves and promised to visit during the weekend and this made his siblings happy. Working the steam off in the gym would not do and being a little addicted to the voice of his shy amber, he decided to give her a call.

'Hello Javice' Amber greeted, for about two months of ongoing friendship, she has refused to call him anything but his full name and this somewhat made him happy and also made him remember Alvin who had always called him by that before he passed on.

'Hey Amber' he responded and it was with him calling her by her full name that she knew something was wrong, he always called her by anything but her full name.

'Is everything okay Javice?, where you at?' asked Amber.

'I'm home, everything is fine' and with this question going on over and over again

'What's your home address Javice?' this question in itself surprised Javice and Dylan as well as Amber herself but she wanted to be sure he was really good.

'Why you asking for my address shy girl?' he asked jokingly.

'Because I know you're not fine and I want to check on you' chewing her lips while saying this made her twin aware she was nervous and he decided to tease her on and on especially on his way to drop her off at Javice's house about how his sister was now all grown up, parked in Javice's house drive way, she couldn't help but reexamine her decision to go see a guy and seeing a car parked over 8minutes in his driveway made Javice so sure of her timidity and fears, all he needed now was the back story to what had really shaped these fears, he was willing to wait for her to open up though since he also had a lot he was keeping from her.

'Hey,hey look at me baby girl, I've seen the way Javice acts around you and I know he can't hurt you and look on the brighter side, you have your protection kit with you and you can always call me when you feel uncomfortable, okay?' Dylan assured.

'I'm sick of feeling afraid alone with guys D, I know he's a good guy but what if bro?' she asked him afraid of the 'what ifs'. Pulling her into a hug, Dylan assured her everything will be okay and opened the door for her, making sure she went into the house, he drove off calling his girlfriend to meet him out for lunch since he was sure Javice would be good to his sister, however, in the back of his mind, he hoped he wasn't like their Uncle Dave.

After having watched her stand on the front pouch for about five minutes without making a move to knock on the door, Javice reclined on the couch angry at her timidity and him debating if to spit in her face about how she could trust him, deciding against it, he turned the TV on while secretly hoping she knocks on the door and stop standing their like a mannequin.

'Okay, I can do this, just get in and get out, can't be so difficult' was all she was thinking before she finally had the courage to knock on the door.

Acting like he hadn't known anyone was there before, Javice answered, 'who's that?' and got a small, 'it's me, Amber' back.

Opening the door, he found her there standing like a doll while chewing her bottom lips and knew right then and there it was a bad idea agreeing to her coming.

'Come on in, woman' was his response before he shut the door and with the door closed, her anxiety level skyrocketed.

'Do you want anything to drink or eat?' he added after offering her a sit and with that she shook her head no.

'Sit down right mehn, I don't bite and feel at home', he insisted but instead noticed how she continued to look around for unknown danger. After radio silence for about an twenty minutes, Javice moved closer to pick up his phone from the chair she was sitting on and with this little action, she spiraled from the sit like someone had whopped her ass, with this movement, Jave's anger flew out and he lashed out on her.

'Now, what the hell is wrong with you Amber, I didn't ask for you to come here and sit down looking stupid, you wanted to come yourself and I tried my best to make you feel at home, didn't sit next to you, gave you time to maybe talk but no I go about to pick my phone and you flash stand on me like what the actual f**k Amber, do i look like I'm a r****t or some s**t, what the hell is wrong with you mehn?' he yelled at her.

'Javice, please stop yelling, I'm sorry, it's just a reflex' she said

'f**k you and your f*****g reflex, I'm not out to hurt you but on phone you're good and now you're shaking in your shoes, for what?' he said again

'I'm sorry' Amber responded.

'You know what Amber, leave my house, as a matter of fact, I'll call you the f*****g uber, just go, I thought you was coming to make me feel happy with your presence and maybe talk about us but you can't even trust me?' He kept going and going.

'I'll explain, Javice just please calm down' but he wouldn't couple with the fact that he didn't want her to explain because he was angry, turning his back on her, 'leave Amber' he said with finality and with a sad heart and anger towards the one who had ruined her jolly life, she put her driver on speed dial.

The moment she left, frustrated with the way he handled things, Jave prepared for the gym and worked out till he could no longer feel his bones and reclined to bed hoping he had it in him to act like an actual man if such situation ever repeats itself.
