19: Walk of Shame

AURORA

My mom was probably still sleeping. I prayed I wasn’t wrong. I turned to Damon, who was focused on the road, refusing to make eye contact with me.

“You can stop me at that drugstore over there. I need to get an ointment for my wound, and I’ll walk home. My house is just a few walks away from there,” I murmured, fixing my eyes outside the window.

“I’ll take you home. Stay in the car, I’ll get you the drugs, and we can go from there.”

“No! I don’t need your help, and I’d appreciate it if you don’t stress it. With that being said, please stop the car!”

“Okay,” he said immediately, and the car came to a halt.

I was shocked he didn’t press on. He switched off the engine and let me out. Before I could say anything else, he drove off.

“Uhmm… that was quick.” I scoffed. My forehead had stopped bleeding, but I needed ointment for it and maybe pain relief, because my ankle was hurting. I started limping toward the store when I suddenly realized I was walking into a sto

    BRYANI was adjusting my jacket for the third time when I heard screaming, It was coming from inside. .I closed my eyes for a second because I already knew the voice.“BRYAN!”I turned just as Amara stormed out of the room, her eyes red, her hair messy, her hands shaking. She looked unhinged, She was still insisting on coming with me even after mother warned her , even after the drama inside , she was still saying the same thing over and over again , she was determined to come along . “If you step out of this house without me,” she yelled, “I swear I will sing like a bird. Every secret. Every plan. Everything.”My mother paused near the door, calm as ever.I clenched my jaw. “Amara, not now, we are already talked about this !” “You think I will just keep shut because of what your mother said ? what does she know about what we went through in hiding? Now she is the one by your side ? What about me ? Huh !” She screamed “Lower your voice,” I snapped, walking toward her.She stepped

    AURORA The stylist was still fixing my hair when the door opened slightly.“Don’t panic,” Damon said immediately. “I come bearing peace.”I looked up and saw him walk in with a tray, there was water, juice, and light snacks. Emilia lifted her eyes from her tablet and stared at him, then at me.“Look at you,” Emilia said slowly. “Showing up like a concerned husband.”Damon smiled easily. “Concerned landlord.”I laughed before I could stop myself, and I felt his eyes linger on me for a second too long. He set the tray down.“I’ll leave you ladies to it,” he said. “Just wanted to check in.”“Thank you,” I said, my voice softer than I meant it to be.He nodded once and stepped out.The room went quiet again, except for the stylist’s hands moving around my head and my heart beating so much,it was like my thoughts were all having a conversation in my head . “ Why does he look extra handsome today ?”“ He must really care about me “ All of this was going on in my head and I bit my lips sl

    BRYANAmara wouldn’t stop pacing and it was pissing me the fuck off but I ignored her and still , Amara being who she was , I knew what was going on and why she was acting so restless. “ Can you just sit down ?” I scoffed but she didn’t stop pacing. Back and forth. Back and forth.Like the room was too small to contain her.“You’re really going without me? Bryan what the fuck ?” she snapped.I sat on the edge of the bed, adjusting my cufflinks slowly, like I hadn’t heard her. The truth was, I heard every word. I just didn’t want to answer yet.“Bryan,” she said sharply. “Look at me when I’m talking to you! Stop ignoring me !” She screamed this time . I lifted my head. “I heard you and can you keep it down ?”“Then answer me, Am I coming with you to Rora’a event?”“No…you are not coming!” She let out a dry laugh and then she scoffed.. “No?” she repeated. “After everything I did for you? You want to throw me under the bus! You snake!” I stood up. “Lower your voice and stop overreac

    AURORAFriday came faster than I expected.To be honest I didn't want it to come at all and it was because of the uneasy feeling I was getting.I was still crashing at my mom's place. Staying over at Damon’s place wasn't feeling like a great idea anymore, rumors could spread and it felt like old feelings were resurfacing.“ You could just get a new apartment, I don't like the idea of staying with him “ “Mom…you chased me out, Damon and I wouldn't be staying together if you'd just let me stay “ “ I was doing it to expose you to the outside world, you got too comfortable “ “Anyways, I paid off the debt” I smiled at her and she rushed to where I was,her face beaming with both excitement and shock.“How…I mean it's a lot of money ““ The company is making a lot “ I grabbed my key chain trying my best to keep a straight face but my mom's excitement gave me butterflies,I could see that she was so proud of me.As I turned to leave for the event hall,she wrapped me in her arms “ I am so pr

    Chapter 50: BRYAN. The room was quiet except for the sound of the phone. Bryan sat on the edge of the bed with the device in his hand, his eyes fixed on the screen as Aurora’s voice filled the air. “This is Aurora… I know it’s you… Stop hiding. Come and face me like a man. I am not scared of you anymore.” Bryan let out a slow breath and locked the phone. “ I see my wifey has grown these past months “ Across the room, Amara stood with her arms crossed. Her face was tight with anger. “You enjoy this, don’t you?” she snapped. “Listening to her voice. Moving in circles.” Bryan didn’t reply. She stepped closer. “How long are you going to keep doing this, Bryan? You already got what you wanted. Everyone believes you’re dead. The company is rising again. Damon is always with her. What exactly are you waiting for?” Finally, he looked up at her. “You wouldn’t understand,” he said. Amara scoffed. “Don’t make me laugh. I helped you fake your death. I testified against her.

    CHAPTER: STOP HIDINGAURORA “ Are you scared ?” He asked and I smiled . “ Should I be ?” Damon shaked his head and said . “ Guess who is in your corner ?” “ You ! “ “ Perfect …Relax , I can’t let anything happen to my client “ “ Your client huh ?” When we got to my house, he didn’t move immediately to leave. He just sat there for a moment, his hands still on the steering wheel.“Aurora,” he called softly.I turned to him. “Yes?”“ You should relax …Bryan is a coward and that’s why he is still hiding “ “ I am not bothered at all “ I lied.He didn’t argue. Instead, he leaned forward and pulled me into a hug. It was slow and gentle, not rushed. I stiffened at first, then slowly relaxed in his arms.“Breathe,” he whispered. “You’re safe for now.”For now.That part stayed stuck in my head.“ What do you mean , ‘ For now ‘ “ I scoffed and he pulled out from the hug and held my shoulder. “ Slip of the tongue …You are safe my dear client “ He teased and I just rolled my eyes . “I’
