The Affair Revenge

Chapter 14

Eve

“Her name is Cami Bennet”. It was like venom coming out my mouth. Everything at that moment was like slow motion. I barely blinked at that moment. Worried I may miss a second of my newly friendship breaking at the same time, it's building up a trust. I have completely f*** up everything. The moment I said it, I wish I hadn't. I saw the shock of confusion in Cami’s eyes. It’s like I just slapped her right in the face. And at this moment I kind of wish someone would slap me. I mentally shook my head to pull myself back together. Telling myself over and over again that, this is what I came here for. I needed to confront her as much as she needed to know the truth.“Excuse me?” Letting a little gasp out with widened eyes as I just expose my main reason for coming here. The stinging feeling inside only burns more. I hated this! “Cami, my name is Eve Samford and Mark Samford is my husband.” Speaking a bit fast, hoping she would just let me get everything out. She placed her glass on the table beside us a little hard. I was afraid it might break.

I took a quick breath in before continuing.“And I found your card at his office the other day. And I been thinking about it… and I had a feeling Mark was unfaithful..” stuttering as I tried my best to explain my reason.“Wait, wait, wait a minute?” Holding her hand up with a frown approaching over her face. The urge to defrind myself took over. Don't Eve. Don't do it.“I know we just started being friends, Cami but I cant here to see if you been sleeping with my husband, or was a crazy obsess client of his.” I rushed to place my glass down on the table as well.As I quickly tried to explain everything to my friend Cami. I went ahead to place my hands in hers. Hoping she clams down and just let me explain. I mean I’m the one who should be upset here. But yet I am trying to keep my new friendship that I just got in tack. And I hardly ever build a friendship like this. Just the open chatted of trust was like years of knowing each other coming out. After we had been talking like years of friends for hours now. I enjoy her company and I know she did too. But after this, she would never want to talk to me again. If I was her, I wouldn't want to talk to me again either. I'm a terrible person for coming here, in the first place. I shouldn't of acted like a friend when I'm the bad guy here.

You are not the bad guy, Mark is.

Then why does it feel like that then?

It only feels like that because of the trust you just develop with her. But its not real.

It feels real. And now its not.

Just focus on the main reason why we're here. Mark's affair.

As I placed my hands on hers, She quickly pulled away from me and jumped up and around the sofa. Shaking her head in disbelief at my words. “Stop talking, just stop EVE!!” Waving her hands with anger as she made herself look at me. “Cami, Mark is married, to me and..” Standing up slowing.“He said, you we’re crazy. He filed for divorce years ago.” Looking at me with and shock in her face and placing her hands on her hips. “What! No, we have never been divorce.” Shaking my head at her as I straightened my back. “Look, I thought it all out, Mark is lair. And he has been lying to you this whole time.” I tried to take a step or two towards her. But as I take a step, she looked up and backed away. “You’re crazy, no Mark wouldn’t lie to me.” Speaking softly at me. You can hear the pain in her voice. "No, he wouldn't. He can't, he, he said..."

“Think about it Cami, why the long trips? Why am here.?" I said, hoping she can believe me and not him. “I don’t know, you're crazy. He told me you didn’t take the divorce well. And know you.. your trying to ruin my marriage to be.” Her tone raising up as she spoke now. She doesn't believe us, Eve. I shook my head, knowing I just needed to convince her. “No, Cami. Mark is a lying cheating bastard! He's married and he lied about it. He's my husband, and still is my husband.” Holding my hands over my heart. I can feel my heart beating so fast. It just might jump out. Maybe then she will see where I am coming from. “No Eve! You need to leave NO!” Backing away and to the side. She stares at the ground as she can’t even stand to look at me. This hurt more than I thought it would. It wasn't suppose to hurt at all.“Cami, My husband Mark is a lair… our friendship..” I feel my face hot as a cold tear drops down. “FRIENDSHIP.. you are the liar EVE. The only reason you show up to my house BOTH TIMES. It was a lie.” She looks at me and I can see the veins popping out her neck as she yells.

My mouth dropped open and then closed as I didn’t had a respond for her. I mean she right. I did lie to her. I made her thought I came to talk about girl stuff. And instead I’m here in her home, her sofa, drinking her wine and telling her that her fiancé was not who he says he is. I was fraud. "Yeah, thats what I thought. I need you to leave now Eve please.” I saw no reaction on her face, besides tears. And she wipes them away as they fall.“Cami, please let..” I try so hard to speak without a crack but all you hear was that. “LEAVE EVE NOW!!!” Yelling at the top of her lungs. Now I see the vein on her forehead, neck and showing on her collar bone. She was wearing a thin tank top. There was nothing left for me to say, she wouldn't hear me out anyways. She just wanted me gone.

I don’t try to speak, as I know she won’t hear me out. I can see the pain in her eyes more. As I walked past her, she moves away from me. She didn't even look up, she seemed to be disgusted with me. I did too. I saw a notepad on her island and I wrote my name, number and address on it. Maybe she just needed time. And when she is ready, we can come back to this topic. And I can tell her everything. I went ahead and placed the note on the table next to her.“Incase you decided to hear me out better.” I place it down and tried to look at her. But she kept her eyes on the ground and shook her head.“Just leave Eve.” Her voice sounded hush now. “Don’t let him see the note.”And just like that I walked out of the house, got into my car and drove off. I thought I would feel better or something after this. But instead I just feel like s***. Wow, I did not think it would end up like that. I just wish she would let me explain. But I know I hurt her. I can’t stop the tears from falling down my face. I feel so so hurt for hurting her.

Hey, why didn’t you jump in and help me!

What did you want me to do?! Mind connect with her and force her to listen to us.

No but you could of help me get her to listen to me just a few more minutes and just maybe she wouldn’t kick us out.

Yeah, just blame me for not speaking up. Everyone is always so quick at blaming their mind for everything. Like we are in control.

Everything goes through you first! So, yes. you are in control.!

Yeah yeah, next time I'll just punch yourself.

Hey, don’t get mad at me. I did my best without your help. No wonder I couldn’t get the right words out fast enough.

Okay look, next time I see you struggling, I’ll jump in and help. I’ll even kick you.

Just a little help would have been fine.

Fine, sorry I didn’t help you with Cami.

*BBEEPP* A car honks at me as I turn my wheel a little too much. I didn't even know I was driving on the road, little long the highway. I thought I had driven out the neighborhood and that all. F*** where was I.?I try to wipe my face clean. I didn't know I was crying.

Hey relax, don’t kill us.

Sorry sorry.

Look what it is at right now. How about we find a place to park up. And let you clear your head. That way you don’t kill us.

*breathing hard*

Ugh okay, I guess so.

I take a familiar exit and pull into the parking lot.I turn off the engine and I wipe away all the snort and tear away. I don't need to walk in looking gross. I just need a drink maybe.

*bbeep*

I grabbed my phone quickly, hoping Cami didn’t throw away my note. Ugh god d*** Verizon and their spam text.I placed my phone down and lay my head back for a bit. I just need a minute.As I calm my body and mind down. I grab my bag and pull out a travel size mascara. Ladies always keep one in your bag along with lipstick, chapstick and eyebrow pencil. And make-up wipes of course. It always comes in handy. I finish fixing myself up. Looking as close to normal as I can. You can still see picky red, under circles on my face. But only if you stares close to me.I grab my phone and take just one more look.“Nope, nothing.” I let out a big sigh. Let's just forget what just happened 5 minutes ago.Okay, umm, let's get a drink. Ohh now you speaking girl. I got out of the Cara and walk inside. Seeing as today is Thursday, a band was on stage performing.

Like last time I took an empty seat by the stage. The place was just a bit more packed than last time. I guess the locals over here, knows what day it is. Looking around, you could see a few people were dancing or standing by the stage to hear the band.“Well, well, well nice to see you again, would you like the same?” Lotto speaks in a husky voice as he remembered me from last time.“Yes Lotto. That be great, thank you.” Smiling as I let a small laugh out from his welcoming face. Out of everyone her, I wouldn't think he remember the one stranger from the other night. Lets just enjoy some drinks and then go home. I nodded at the thought, wishing I had stayed home today. At least I'm here to listen to good music and drink some good stuff from the cute bartender. Agree.
