SOME WHERE IN ITALY
Anny quickly rush to Donald's house immediately she received Ricky's call. She has been busy lately that she don't have time to check on Donald, but when Ricky call her to go to Donald's apartment, she quickly left what she was doing and went there. She enter into Donald's apartment, since she knew the password, she open the door to the room. There, she meet Donald her boyfriend with Drisha her cousin. Anny's face instantly turn ugly, she look shocked, immediate anger fills her looking at their position.
"Who is she?" Anny ask Donald sternly as if she could not recognize Drisha.
She breathe threateningly looking so angry, Drisha's hand interlock with that of Donald's.They are both half naked on the bed, Drisha rest her head on Donald's chest.
"Can't you see who she is?" Donald reply Anny nonchalantly.
"Did you want me to spell it for you?" Donald adds hissing.
Anny's face turns black like the back of a pot, she could not believe Donald saying that to her.
"When you see a man and a woman like this, don't you know what it means?" Donald said to Anny again looking at her as if she is a fool.
"Did Donald just said that to me?" Anny ask with disbelief.
Donald is her boyfriend for two years, she has always do whatever he wants, she wash his clothes, clean his apartment, she do everything he ask of her, she even borrow him the two hundred thousand dollars she saved for his family's house rent, but right now, Donald is with her own cousin, half naked on the bed and still telling her nonesense. Anny's head start to spin as of she will faint.
"So, all these years he always tells me he loves her, was it all lie? Did he forget those words and now telling me trash?" Anny did not know how exactly she should describe what she is seeing or hearing right now.
"What did you mean by man and woman?" Anny ask Donald with an angry voice.
"Is it this thing you call a woman?" Anny glance at Drisha disgustingly.
"Pah!" a dirty slap suddenly land on Anny's face before she could finish her statement.
Drisha gave her a hot slap across her face, Anny's face turns red from the slap. She hold her face that gets slapped painfully.
"Who did you think you are to call me this thing?" Drisha stand up to Anny ready to beat her up.
"You are the trash here" Drisha breathe murderously.
"None of your boyfriends ever last for three months, only my Donald stay with your pathetic self. He has been with you for two years now without you giving him what he wants" Drisha did not give Anny any chance to react as she lash at her.
"Hasn't he wasted enough time on something like you?" Drisha ask sizing Anny up.
"Donald his mine now" Drisha point to Donald and move closer to him trying to claim her right over him.
"Who did you think you are to have Donald as boyfriend?" Drisha eye Anny badly and hissed.
"You don't worth him" Drisha mocks Anny.
"I, the rightful owner is here to claim him" Drisha continue to talk without allowing Anny speak.
Donald just look at Drisha display for Anny and did not utter any word to defend Anny who has been with him for two years.
"Did you dare give him what I gave him? So, you have no right to fight over him" Drisha smirk and plant a soft kiss on Donald's lips right before Anny, Donald also response to the kiss, the two trying to make out right in the presence of Anny.
Anny look stunned hearing everything Drisha says to her, she look to Donald disappointedly. Drisha slap her and Donald did not say anything, Anny hold her face that got slapped by Drisha, she almost cry.
Not because of the slap, but realizing that Donald left her for a slut like Drisha makes her wants to cry, but she decides not to cry.
"Even if I will cry, not in the presence of Drisha" Anny swallow the saliva that got stock in her throat slowly.
If she cries that means she accept defeat. Anny holds her tears but her eyes are so red.
"So you mean you left me for this whore?" Anny face Donald because she has nothing to say to Drisha.
"You call me a whore!" Drisha almost slap Anny again but Donald quickly pull her back.
"Just leave her babe" Donald tells Drisha but she still wants to slap Anny, if not for Donald, she will have really beat Anny up.
Anny sneered angrily when she hears Donald call Drisha babe, she smile bitterly.
"I could not believe it when Ricky told me you are having an affair with her" Anny point to Drisha who eye her badly.
"But confirming it right now, I feel that I have wasted my time with a fool like you" Anny look at Donald furious.
"Since the fool and the slut have comes together, I will like to excuse you. And as for the money you own me, I give you two as a gift for the begin of your wretched life" Anny said to them and stormed out of the room.
Anny could not hold her tears anymore after she left Donald's apartment, she burst out crying.
It is true that her previous relationships only last for three months, but Donald was different, he was understanding and patient, Anny thought that their relationship is good when they celebrate their second year anniversary, but she did not know that it was all a lie.
"A lie from the pit of hell!" Anny let out and cry more.
If Ricky, her best friend did not tell her about Donald and Drisha, she will still remain the fool who loves Donald.
"Am too gulible and unlucky" Anny cries as she bend down on the road.
When Ricky told her about Drisha and Donald, she did not believe it at first. But now, it dawn on her that she just wasted two years of her life with the wrong person. Anny feels broken, she just sit down on the road where she bends.
She did not expect that Donald could do that to her because of sex. She only told him to wait till they get married, but now, Donald left her for Drisha, Anny hold her chest crying bitterly, then her phone start to ring.
Anny sniff and slowly look at her phone, she sees Ricky's number and pick up.
"Hello" Ricky said as soon as Anny pick the call.
Anny sniffed sadly. Ricky instantly knows that Anny is crying but she is surprised to hear Anny cry on the phone.
"Anny, are you okay?" Ricky ask her but Anny did not reply.
"Why are you crying?" Ricky ask worriedly.
"Did Donald do anything to you?" Ricky knows that Anny went to Donald's apartment after she told her about him and Drisha, but she did not expect that Anny will cry after meeting Donald because she always warn her that Donald is a play boy but she will not listen.
"Where are you right now?" Ricky ask but Anny still not did reply.
"Donald cheat me" Anny only said that.
"Just stay there, I will come and get you" Ricky quickly ends the call.
Ricky quickly drive to Donald's apartment, she knows that Anny will just be around the place.
As she drives towards Donald's apartment, she sees Anny sitting on the road at a corner crying. Rickly stop the car and went to meet her.
"Anny! Why are you like this?" Ricky ask when she sees how Anny just sit on the road crying.
"You should stand up from the road" Ricky tell her but Anny did not answer and keep crying.
"Did you break up with Donald?" Ricky ask her.
Anny clean her tears and sniff, she look at Ricky's face and cry aloud, Ricky sigh then hug her.
"You don't need to cry because of a loser, he did not worth your tears" Ricky tell Anny petting her.
"Don't i already told you?" Ricky continue to hug Anny.
After sometimes, Ricky let go of Anny and look at her face, when she sees that Anny already stop crying, she look relieved.
"Let's talk about this somewhere else, you are sitting on the road" Ricky helps Anny up and they left in her car.
Ricky look at Anny's sorrowful state as she drives, her friend has never been lucky with her relationships, she was always cheated on.
First, it was Mike then Felix, now Donald. She will even give them money and do everything she could do to make them stay, but whenever they ask for sex and she refuse, they will cheat on her and break up with her, Ricky sigh at her helpless girlfriend.
That night Anny cried so much, though she was use to break ups, but she just feel so disappointed because she never expected that Donald will also cheat on her like the others.
Ever since she become of age, her life have been so difficult, it just seems as if no one wants her, her mother died when she was young, she have a brother and a sister who barely loves her. Her father hate the sight of her, her father will use all the family saving to drink alcohol and expect her to work to take care of the family expenses
Anny is the one who takes care of her brother and sister all by herself. Life is not fair to her at all, it is only her best friend Ricky, who has always been supportive.
After she left college, she could not get a proper job, she apply to so many companies but they always reject her. Anny sigh thinking about her life, as she clean her tears, she suddenly remembers she has another interview soon.
"I have to be strong" she said trying to look okay.
"I hope she could get the job this time" she sigh and lay on her bed staring at the space.
