The warm shower felt soothing and nice for a moment she let her emotions and feeling be carried away with the warm trickling water, she had gone ahead to take a shower before leaving the guy she had just met the other night. Her dress was not in a good shape to be re-worn she had to wait for the new ordered clothes for her that were to arrive in a few minutes, for a minute it made her wonder who was this man she was with.

Her mind drifted away from the thoughts of what could have happened but for some reason, she felt something had happened between them, she had tried calling Linda that morning but all her calls were going to voice notes.

A knock was heard at the door several times and she thought her clothes were here finally so she hurried to get done, Justin was on his computer doing some work when he heard the knock.

He got from the bed and walked towards the door, whoever was knocking it sounded angry and he couldn’t understand how someone delivering goods could be angry unless that was not the delivery guy, he hoped not in his heart he knew the only other person who would come knocking angrily would be Sandra.

“Why have you not been picking up my calls?” she asked as soon as the door was opened. 

“Sorry babe I was busy, I didn’t know you are coming,” he said standing at the door trying to stop her from getting in the house.

“you are acting strange is something going on here?” she asked trying to look around the house. That was the time the delivery guy was arriving with the packed clothes. Sandra turned to look at him and back at Justin who was in hot soup at that moment.

“and this is?” she asked taking them. “and let me pass,” she said hitting him as she walked over to the living room.

“those are mine sandy can have them,” he said to her but she was already unboxing it.

“so this dress and underpants are for you?” she asked him very angry.

“I wanted to surprise you with that,” he said fumbling he wasn’t even thinking straight that Stacey was still in the house. She also heard the commotion and out of the shower she could hear Sandra nag how that dress was not her size it was bigger, she knew that must be his girlfriend she got from the shower first and looked around for any clothing she could find.

She went for the sweatpants they were closer to and a big grey shirt that was hanging on the first line. 

“shit I should have left when I woke up! Why in the world did I think such a cute guy was single!” she cursed at herself putting on the clothes and finding any shoes that she could fit in, there was no way she was going to walk in heels wearing sweatpants and a big shirt that would be very humiliating. 

She wore one of the sneakers that were there and took her purse ready to leave like she was never there. She didn’t want drama even though she was in the middle of it already, she went over to the window but she realised just how high the apartment was as she didn’t even know what part of the town she was in. 

“who is she?” Sandra asked Justin after she began moving around the house looking for what was making Justin act so weird. Stacey stood frozen for a moment by the window dressed in Justin's clothes.

I know this looks bad but I should be on my way, so if you don’t mind I will be on my way” she said walking past them but Sandra pulled her back angrily.

“Listen to me you hoe, don’t think you will mess with my boyfriend and let you leave here like its nothing, now listen very carefully,” she said to her as a spark of red came through her eyes and Stacey got distracted wondering if she was again hallucinating before she could say another word Justin interrupted her moving her away from Stacey he knew what she was going to do and he did not want that to happen.  

“sandy let's talk about this let her go,” he said to her standing in front of Stacey.

“no we get to talk, she is the side chick you have been cheating on me with huh?” Sandra said very angrily.

“sandy calm!” he said to her as she tried pushing him away and trying to reach Stacey who was now losing her patience.

“no you let me deal with this piece of shit!!” she said angrily at him.

“okay look here lady I won't stand here and let you keep on insulting me!! I don’t give a damn about you or this who I even don’t know!!!”Stacey said angrily not giving a care.

“See how she is talking to me! now that's it!! am going to make you suffer until you regret ever setting your eyes on my man and I will make sure you feel every pain that comes with it” she said angrily at her but Stacey didn’t even care what threats she was giving her.

“Well, I don’t give a shit about your man!! Stacey said and pushed both of them aside and walked out of that place angrily while Sandra was still yelling her name, Justin stood there frustrated and at his bed stressed.

"Are you going to sit there and act like you also don’t care?”Sandra said angrily at him. 

“look I am so tired okay," he said to her which made her storm out angrily at his house, as soon as she left his brother Andrew walked in.

"I have been staying out there for a long time what is going on? ”he asked him.

“I am tired of being with a  brother can this all just end ! ”he said very frustratedly.

“you know why we are doing this, don’t forget our caus,” he said to him getting him back to his senses.

"couldn't we use another way because honestly, I don't know how long I can take this,” he said at him but that seemed to have upset him he lifted him from his bed with his arms and looked at him angrily.

“you better get back in line and apologise to her, and stop sleeping around with human girls that aren't what we do I am sure you don’t mother hearing about this, do you Justin? ”he asked him angrily.

“no I will do what is required I will apologise to her,” he said to him feeling powerless.
