A WIFE FOR THE PRINCE CHARMING

I ALSO WAITED

Chapter 4

Romano Karma

I opened my eyes slowly with an heavy headache. " You are finally awake" Davis come close, checking my temperature. I look around to see both of my friends, they have this worried look on.

"You are burning up, let me get something for you"

He went out, leaving me with Alena, Who now is now giving me a wired look..... I wonder what is going on. Alena is not the gentle type. Davis came back, with a bowl and towel.

"Use this, it pain relief" He help me sit upright as he finish using the boiled water and towel to suppress my high temperature..., Alena passed me a glass of water.., I took the medicine and he help me lay back..

"What happened, how did I get here" I remember vividly I was at home through out yesterday, even though I was not under house arrest, I just wish to be home, I didn't even attend class..

"That should be our question to you, how do you get to the country side yesterday night all drunk"

Alena snapped. I look at her trying to recall what happen last night...

________Last Night________

"You can't tell me that" I heard mum yell... Oh, that's my mom's voice. My mum?.., Yelling? How...

My mum would never yell at someone..., If you make her really angry, she either walk away or stay silent.. She's a very composed and easy going woman, she doesn't shout or yell..., What could have make mum lost her composure...

I left my room to check on what's going on..., Another surprise the noise was coming from, her and Old man's room. Who could mum possibly be yelling at... She would never yell at Old man, she respect that man so much. Could another person be in the room with her. Old man and James were not around since morning, and I don't think they've come back... I was at home all day, I don't feel like going anywhere, I just stay home enjoying, to even think that I and mum was in the living room, like an hour ago talking..

It's being Two weeks I came back home, since then I haven't sneak out, cause, I think I now have little freedom. Old man is not after my where about this two week, which am still kind of still feeling wired, but it good. After school yesterday I went to meet Davis and Alena at there company. which has been my routine since a week now..

But since Old man and James is not around, and no one is allow to enter there room, expect from I and James though, it impossible for someone else to be in that room with mum. Maybe she's on call..

"I won't accept any form of disrespect from you Lorain" A deep dangerous masculine voice snapped.

That's f*****g Old man's voice. When did he comes back. What the f**k is going on.. I lean to the door to gossip, I must know what the f**k is going on. "Oh! please spare me that Jordan" mum yell his name. "Holy f**k" I gasps, clamping my both hand on my mouth, to prevent making a sound, for them not to notice my present... Interesting.. Mum has never address Old man by his name. I love this. I don't give a f**k about you' character, mum is playing right now, I love it. For mum to loose her s**t, like this, then it must be a very hearten matter..

"Mum" So he's also inside, I guess I didn't notice when they both came back. But James sound kind of calm, than James I've always known..

What am I missing, why are they keeping me out of this s**t going on.

"Stay out of this James, this is between I and your father" She sounds very angry. "So you've decided to start showing some character Lorain" Old man questioned. How I wish I could see there expression in this heated argument.

"Yes Jordan, Yes, you've push too hard, you've push to to all I can take, I can't take this anymore, all this..., all this years I've try to endure, I've to put up with everything, but now am choked, I've had enough" Her voice break, I can imagine tears in her eyes...

Gosh!! I hate that man, see what he did to my mum, he makes my mum cry, poor mum., she really endure.

"Jordan, He's my son, my only son...,, I birth him for you..., you're his father, he's your son, your heir, He's the future of Romano..... No.. No, Jordan, I won't sit and watch you throw my son in hell" Mum choked on her tears, now crying loudly.. This is all about James. I wonder what is going on that could make mum cry this loud not minding anyone.

"Mum don't do this, I will go, it's my right has the Romano Heir" What a jerk, how I wish I could just go in there and punch his face. Is he that daft to see mum is trying to get Old man to change his mind. I don't know what is going on, but I get mum's motive on this matter

"What right, you just shut up there, you are going no where" Mum disagree..

I hissed silently, Mum is just fighting for nothing. That f*****g jerk will always do what Old man says, such a daddy's Boi. It getting dark, they should keep there voice down, I want to sleep... I was about walking away, when Old man says something that almost makes me loose my breath.. "I am the head of this house, I have the final say.., James is going to Tokyo and that's final"

I bang in immediately. "What.. what do you just say Old man" I whimpered slowly. Mum look up at me, her eyes was red, tears keep rolling down. Old man was expressionless, James looked away from me. "It's a joke right" I ask no one in particular.. "James tell me it a prank, that you guys are just trying to grab my attention" I stutter, looking between the two Romano men. "Tell my all this, is a f*****g joke" I yell almost In tears. "Karma Stay out of this, it has nothing to do with you" He sound so cold. Mum break down in tears. "Old man why?" I turn to him. "Why is everything always about you, why are you so selfish, James is your son, you wanna send your son to hell.. Tokyo?.. You know the war happening between you and the Mafia there, you know the out come of him going there" I yell still controlling my tears.

" f**k this s**t, f**k all this Romano Heir Right, James has no right to clear your mess" I was burning in anger.

"Karma please just shut up, shut the f**k up" James yell at me angrily, now standing in front of me. His eyes met with mine slowly, all I see in his eyes is pain, raw pain that can't be faked. The last time he yell angrily at me with this expression was years ago, we were still very young, when I got injured due to my clumsiness.

"Don't even act as if you care, it too late, it f*****g too late to show your concern, it too late to show you cared" James voice break as his eyes glaze over. "When I needed you the most where were you....., when I needed your attention, where were you......, when I needed my sister, where was she....., when I needed a sister to lean on where the f**k were you....., when I needed someone to tell my pain, someone to cry to, when the hell were you then" He yell.

The tears I've been trying to control finally fall....

" I waited for you, I waited for you to forgive me, I waited for you so we can solve this... all this s**t, so we could together, I waited for my sister, for her to finally look at me, and forgive me, Karma I waited for years, but all you do is push me away" he pause then exhale. "All this has nothing to do with you, don't fake concern, I will go and no one will stop me, not even you, it's my life not yours" on saying that he walks away.. It took me a while to finally regain myself, and I ran after him.

I caught up with him in the hall way... "I... I... I also waited. I couldn't control my tears, he look away from me fighting his tears. "You weren't the only one that waited, I f*****g waited you you wanker, I waited for my brother, for him to always run to me no matter how much I pushed him away, I waited for you to lean on me, I also waited" I ran out in tears....

James is right, I didn't give him listen ear, I pushed him away, he looked forward to my forgiveness, but I was blinded with anger, thinking Old man finally succeed in manipulating him...

I don't think calling Alena or Davis will help right now, I need time alone, space to think, I need my head cleared. I need something stronger than water right now.

Someone bump into me, as I staggered back to my sit, with another bottle of Tequila with me. I look up, only to see the parking lot guy. "Hey Monkey Face, are you now stalking me" Clearly annoyed with him, why the hell is he here. "I have more thing to do, than to stalk you crazy squirrel" He sound annoyed.

" What the f**k do you just call me... Squirrel?, really" I drag him back by his collar as he wanted to walk away. I empty the bottle of Vodka on his head.... Don't mess with me....
