Chapter 3 Get wasted

(Get wasted)

I drove my car back home, not knowing what to do at home, I decided to create some free websites in preparation for any contract or online applications. I switched into my PJs and brought out my laptop as I started typing. I created a public website for contracts and then my phone rang, I answered the call and heard my dad's husky deep voice.

"Abby, you should be present here on Thursday, we will be having a family meeting here." He ordered, I sneered. I had always hated this man's guts,he's just so hard to please and hard to be loved

"Okay, time and venue?" I asked in an irritated tone

"1pm at the Jones' family house." He said and ended the call.

*shit* I cursed, how can they even do this to me for goodness sake. I'll be meeting with every member of the Jones family, I hate those people. They only cared about their reputation, they never knew the meaning of love. My so called Dad can't even asked about my health. I scoffed with a grin, who am I kidding? I bet he expects me to be dead by now. I Finally created some new websites and folders... I just can't wait to receive the result concerning my interview. I then walked to the kitchen and prepared noodles and shrimps. I ate my lunch and I can't help but frown recalling how Henry never let me eat alone and sometimes fed me. I'm just heartbroken and it seems so hard to accept the fact that he's not mine anymore. I went to the grocery store to fill our vacant refrigerator. I selected some fruits and beverages, then some frozen fishes and 3 kilograms of meat. I was about heading for the vegetable store when someone bumped into me.

"Sorry... I'm so sorry," I apologized to the young lady and she scoffed

"Long time no see Abby," I looked up to those pair of grey eyes as I knitted my brows in anger. It's no other than the bit*h Tessa of a girl. I glared at her with a disregarding look

"If it's not the boyfriend snatcher." I said with discontent and she smirked

"Oh poor Abby, it's a pity that you've fallen a lot for Henry that you can't get over him." She blabbed

"Well, I'm just here to ask you to stay away from my man, you're his past now and believe me, I pleasure him in different ways you can't." She flaunted with a winning smirk, my heart shattered on hearing her last words, Henry promised to wait for me and he'll pleasure me in ways I can't comprehend... But it's all just a fantasy, never a reality, Tessa cleared her throat

"You know what? He's even irritated by you and hates hearing your name, he's disgusted and whenever your name is being mentioned, you need to see his expression." She said as I tried to hold back my tears, I immediately left the grocery store after paying for the ones I bought. I entered my car and locked it, I let out those years I tried to subdue, but it's hard and complicated.I shouldn't be thinking about that traitor, I assured myself that everything is gonna be fine. I drove home and started unpacking the goods. My phone rang and I beamed with smiles seeing the name, I quickly answered with a smile.

"Hey there sweetheart," Jane called and I smiled at her with enthusiasm and joy

"Hey Jane." I said in a soft tone.

"Guess what?" She stated more like a question

"Oh come on Jane," She knew I'm not that good in guessing yet she kept asking me to guess

"I got promoted!" She screamed and I screamed as well, I'm really happy for her, she's been working day and night all this 3 years to get promoted and now it finally happened

"Oh my God Jane, I'm really happy for you." I said

"So... Got any plans for tonight?" Jane asked me and I shook my head though she can't see me.

"No." I replied sipping a glass of orange juice

"Really that's great, accompany me to Glitters Club and suites." She said and I sighed

"Jane, you know I hate clubbing, does that ring a bell?" I asked her and she chuckled

"Come on Abby, you're a woman, you need to act like one. Please come with me..." She pleaded and I chuckled. She'll surly be the death of me. I grunted 

"What're you going there for?" I asked curiously

"Come on Abby," she said in a whisper

"Let's get wasted, you should drown your pain and sorrow away right?" Jane persuaded, recalling what that bitch said in the grocery, I decided that it's time to live my life how it pleases me, I can't possibly please some people who never cared about my happiness, I won't displease myself again and that's it.

"Okay, agreed." I said to Jane who kept squealing like a child as I rolled my eyes at her childish behavior.

"So... What are your plans?" I asked her

"Meet me at Fashionistas W.B now." She said and hung up. I sighed not knowing if I'm making the rightful decision here or not.

 Fashionistas W.B is one of the best designing boutiques in New York. I took my shower and wore a blue gown, then I decided to take a taxi because Jane is already with her car. The taxi stopped me in front of the boutique and I paid him and then sighted Jane, she's on a phone call, so I decided to wait. Soon she was done and then turned to me with a happy squeal again and pulled me into a hug. She looks so excited and I'm really glad it went that way. 

 We did some shopping and I found a red silk short dress with black heels. Jane collected an exposing white dress with blue heels and then she cleared the bill also sponsored our Lunch
