"Why are you crying?" Drake asked, taking my palms in his hands as he shut the car door. Tears continued to roll down my eyes, and I sniffled, while Drake drew me closer to him. With concern on his face, "Tell me what's the problem baby?" I wiped my eyes with my hands, and he inched closer and took out a handkerchief from his pocket which smelt like lavender, and wiped my eyes. "What's wrong? Talk to me" His voice was calm and soothing.Stuttering, I responded, "I'm just crying because I feel like crying." I said with seriousness in my tone, Drake's jaw dropped slightly, first, he let out a sigh which transcended to a chuckle, and lastly an outburst of laughter."Why are you laughing?" I asked him, pouting my lips. He placed his hands on the steering and locked his eyes with mine, with a soft smile on his face as he licked his lower lips unnoticeably, "Now come here, mama"I rested my head on his shoulder and smiled softly but my head was still clouded with thoughts. "Open up!! You

"Hello mum?", I responded picking up the surprising call from my mom. "Why would she call me in the first place?" I asked myself."Who's that?", Drake asked, lifting his head slightly, while I lay on top of him. "My mom", I said out loud before responding to the statement my mom made. "Wait whose voice is that?" My mom interjected, rolling my eyes, I hissed."I am in safe arms mom, I am with my boyfriend. I didn't go back to or with Aiden. I feel scared, really really scared. Mom!! It doesn't feel safe." My mom hesitated for close to a minute before responding to me."But.. anyways!! Do what you like as far as you are safe, I'm fine." My mom responded in a tone I could not really understand and immediately she hung the call on me."This woman's annoying as fuck." I mumbled.****Three days later after the whole scene, I didn't go back home. Aiden had been calling me throughout those days which pissed me off and I didn't even receive them. On the fourth day, my mom decided to take a da

"I'm coming with you!" I yelled, turning to look at Drake and back at my mom who turned her back to look at me. "Come if you want to come," She yelled back, covering her face. She immediately ran and entered into the car.I hugged Drake for a second, "Bye bye" I said and hurriedly ran away with my mom. "Be careful" Drake warned, "Call me if you have any issues" Drake said I was already in earshot.Waving at him, I held the handle of the car, got in, and slammed it hard. "Just stay calm Mom, or maybe I should drive the car". I mumbled and placed my hands on the steering. "Get back in the back", I nodded, and my mom looked shocked at me. "When did you learn how to drive?" My mom asked in surprise."When you stopped." I held back my words, thankfully she didn't ask me to complete my sentence. She was shattered, and I loved it. My reason for following her was to see how she was going to act truly and to see Aiden's deceptive attitude be revealed.Getting on the wheel I drove steadily and

"You can do whatever you want to do. I'll take Drake from you and you get him." My mom said sarcastically, grabbing my nose. "I don't think you wanna do that. By the way, I would never want to see my daughter have or have to do with anyone that cheats." My mom said sternly and I smiled."All men will always cheat, it's kinda inevitable," I said to myself. "But are you really going to sign the divorce papers Mom?" I asked, pouting and giving her the puppy look. "I pray she says yes, say yes, please do", I prayed in my mind. "I won't, I just need more space to recover honey! Look I love him so much " My mom replied, my jaw dropped low and my eyes widened as I turned my face towards the widow. didn't want my mom to see that I was unhappy."Why the fuck will my mom be stupid?!! Just sign the divorce and be free."I screamed in my head. "But why won't you sign the divorce Mom? Anyways it's your choice. I just find it funny because it can never be me! Just like you said" I said in frustrat

Aiden took my mom to the hospital for a checkup. She was made to rest while hurriedly rushed up to class. Entering my Porsche, I hit the pedal and arrived at school. "Finally here" I mumbled as I came out and shut the door, locking it too. Walking majestically like a queen which I am, inside the school, I kept my chin high. I couldn't help but notice the way heads turned as I walked out of the car. With the whispering and all that, I knew people in my school loved to gossip. They hadn't changed for one bit, they still acted like high schoolersWhile in the class, Drake came to me. "Hey baby, how are you doing?" He asked me, brought his lips to my forehead, and gave me a kiss. Smiling, I responded, " I am fine honey, what about you".After the class, at that point, I had the feeling of not talking to anyone anymore as the memories of my mom committing suicide flashed through my head. "You look so down, I was watching you from afar. You seemed bright when you came in but your mood chang
