come back to me

chapter 4

Anthony

Never in my wildest dreams have I thought of seeing Jennifer again. i had heard that she's back but i wasn't expecting her to show up here. and my mom was the one to invite her was even bigger of a surprise. i didn't know that mom was in contact with her. and the moment she walked towards me and hugged me, i froze. I didn't know how to react. my first instinct was to push her away i don't know why it just didn't feel right. i know people hug each other as greetings but i just felt that this was wrong. maybe because she was my ex.

but when i held her arms to push her away, my eyes met Evelyn's eyes. i was searching for the pain and i saw it. so i didn't push jenna away.. but hugged her back. it must've hurt her. but it's fine. i wanted that. 8 years ago she decided to drug me and trapped me into this marriage. i would have understand that she liked me and seeing me with her own best friend might've been really difficult.. if she had confessed to me i would have make her understand gently like always. but she decided to trick me. in the worst way possible. that day when i woke up next to her like that i felt like an animal.. when everyone accused Evelyn i couldn't believe it. i know evelyn and my eve would never do anything like that. but when she confirmed that she likes me, and when jenna blamed her that she was jealous and wanted to have me. the accusations made sense.. if it was someone else in my place as the victim then i would have fought against everyone saying evie can't do such things. but it was me. it was me whom she tricked. the evie i knew seemed unfamiliar.. i was disappointed.. i was hurt that she would do such things to me.. the girl I had trusted the most.. i trusted her more than jenna..but she betrayed me..i cried the most that time.that day i lost both. my girlfriend who left me. and my best friend, my partner in crime, my twin flame who betrayed me. i lost my evie that day. and now Evelyn has to pay for that. but there's a problem, after jenna hugged me, I'm suddenly feeling irritated. there's something burning on my skin. i don't know how to fix it. I'm feeling like i need to rub my skin to remove that touch. it has never happened before. so i went to the kitchen to drink some water.. more likely to stay away from the gathering there.

as i was done, Emma and Michael came inside..

emma is my friend and Michael's girlfriend. i was really happy when they got together. it was almost the same time as jenna and i had started dating. I'm happy that they're still together..

"jenna looked even more beautiful, right tony?" emma asked.. tony is my nickname..

even though I frowned at her question, I nodded. no doubt she's become more beautiful. good for her.. i hope she's happy too.. now don't ask me why i frowned. i think emma shouldn't have asked this to me..

"Evelyn was so embarrassed" i was keeping the glass when she said that and i stopped and looked at her.

"i would have asked you to get back with jenna. she's much better next to you" emma continued. and my frown deepened. i slowly walked towards her and stopped at a decent distance.

"what do you mean?" i asked

"come on, i know you still love jenna. look at her, she's still the diva. and then, there's Evelyn.. the boring teacher.. she's nothing compared to jenna. and that b***h-" before she could continue something just snapped inside me and i grabbed her chin between my fingers and thumb. i know i looked scary because her face became pale

"don't ever try to use your stupid brain in my personal matters.. never ever forget your role..and don't ever use that tone when you're talking about my wife.. she's my wife and remember that i won't let you talk s**t about her" i said and she was staring at me as if she was seeing a ghost

"am i understood?" i asked and she nodded so i let go of her chin and looked at my brother who was equally shocked but there was something in his blue eyes as well.... amusement? i don't know..and i don't care. my mind is a mess now. "Ask your girlfriend to behave well around my wife" i said and didn't wait for his response.i walked out of the kitchen..

i maybe stay distant with Evelyn but no one, i mean no one disrespects my woman.. it doesn't matter who it is.. it's a bit confusing why i feel like that for her when she betrayed me but it's my responsibility maybe that's why.. NO ONE GETS TO DISRESPECT MRS. EVELYN ANTHONY SMITH..
