5 C4- Demon from my past

I'll be telling you the truth, it got me a minute to think before asking mom why she was acting riled up. Pray for me guys and hope I don't get it back on my face.

"What happened mom you look pissed." I asked carefully.

"Nothing, it's just that annoying neighbor back there. She's been keeping me up on my feet because her mouth refuses shut up! And my feet hurt so bad." Mom whined. I nod to agree, she is right about that neighbour. I just hope she doesn't live across.

"I agree she talks too much mom. I checked on you twice and there she was, still talking." I added.

"Do you know the frustrating part? When I tried giving her a sign my feet hurt from standing so much she just always have another conversation to begin with, gosh I hate her already." mom kept on ranting while walking around the house aimlessly.

I let her rant till she is contented, I am not going to interfere with this, huh-uh. I have seen way too many things her hormones make her do. She can be insane, but still, I am surprised the neighbor didn't receive a single wrath coming from her hormones.

"Yes mom I wonder how we're gonna survive here with that big-mouthed neighbor." I told her while I devise a plan on keeping that woman away from us or worse, it is us that have to keep away from her.

"Forget it, she ruined my morning. I don't feel like doing anything anymore." Mom huffed and made her way to the stairs and that's why I come into the picture.

"Soo... what can I make us for breakfast?" I asked trying to lighten the mood. "We cannot let that bimbo ruin our stomach right?"

"Yeah like what!" She returns with sarcasm.

"Something simple but delicious." I suggested even though I have no idea what to cook.

"Anything you cook is great as long as it doesn't contain eggs, alcohol and mints, then I'm cool." Mom said and made her way upstairs, her mood seems to lighten up a bit, thank God for that.

"Hey! Mom I don't do that and you know it!" I complained.

"Whatever you say chica." She sassed. I can see a visible smirk on her lips, I could not get mad instead I was happy all her anger and worries vanished.

Great! Just great, everything seem to be in the right place. The last thing I want is to feed a crying cranky pregnant woman. Not that I thought about the mood swings to follow.

I walked into the kitchen to get cooking. The first thing I did was peel the Irish potatoes, mom loves potatoes in every of her diet. After I boiled them all in a saucepan for twenty minutes, I drain them aside then mashed them until they looked smooth enough to swallow before preparing my second recipe.

I made the sauce and kebab the previous day, they were kept inside the freezer to save time and energy for me 'a good idea' I am able to finish breakfast and head out on time. After I was done cooking, I served mom her portion and took it up to her room. A few moments later I walked back to the kitchen to have my breakfast.

I was about to put a spoon of potatoes in my mouth when I heard a knock on our door. It shouldn't be an issue for me since I am the only one down here but I can't help feeling angry. I made a groaning sound and took slacking step to the door. When I opened it there wasn't anyone there. Confused and weird I shrugged it off and closed the door.

I haven't taken a step from the door when another knock came in. No more jokes this time, I took my steel bat from a corner. Balancing it professionally on my shoulder, I walked back to the door so I can hit whoever it is playing tricks on me this early morning. I opened the door without caution preparing to attack but froze instead.

To say I was surprised will be an understatement, I am very shocked to see him outside my door 'how in the world did he get here?' I nearly dropped the bat on my foot in shock. The one person I once trusted, the one who betrayed me and the one who took everything from me, he stole my heart and dumped it into a canal, like my feelings were nothing than mere sewage, and he was the same person who humiliated and disrespected me in front of the whole world.

That one person I detest the most in this world is  no other inhuman than that bastard

Noel Eugene

I just stared at him blankly. No thought, no emotion ran through my system as I stared at him. It was like a bucket of ice water had been poured all over me. I was glaring at this man and the idiot felt comfortable smiling at me 'does he have a death wish, cause I would gladly give him one'

Son of a flipping bull!

"What do you want?" I growled out making his smile drop. Oh was he expecting I will be happy to see his jerk face? Oh man, he something else coming.

"Can I at least come in?" He asked in hopes I will accept him back 'well hell no will I let that happen!' I gave him a disgusted look, my mind was already prepared to lash out at him.

"Hell no! You prick, if you came all the way to Spain for me to accept you then you are dead wrong. If you think I will welcome you with open arms then-" And that's when something hits me. "Wait a minute, how did you know I left the country and how did you get my address?" I folded my hands under my breasts waiting for him to answer while he scratched the back of his neck.

'busted!'

"I- um... Sadie told me." He said.

I mentally slapped myself for being stupid. I should have known from the start, Sadie Hathaway, my busybody cousin who can't stay out of people's business, I could have sworn she was not around when we discussed our travel at her parent's house. Anyways she's a Hathaway news tends to get in their hands first and they spread widely. Luckily the whole country knows we are in Spain.

"That doesn't explain your extemporaneous visit." I tried to stay calm so as not to attract nearby neighbors, especially the one in front of us.

"I wanted to say I'm sorry, and I know you are very mad. You have the right to be, everything that happened shouldn't have. I take full responsibility for it, can you forgive me?" He asked.

"It's good to know you've gone past being on diapers."

"I don't care, insult me all you can but I need to know that you forgive me." He pleaded. The old side of me would have accepted him but I am a changed person and I will not let him manipulate me anymore.

"I will think about it." I told him flatly thus ending the conversation. I tried closing the door but he put his foot at the edge of the door preventing me from doing so.

"Please." He begged, making me feel irritated.

"Whatever, I need time." I grumbled and with that I stepped hard on his foot with my boot heels making him wince, he toppled over resulting in the door slamming straight on his head when I closed it.

I heard a faint thud followed by a painful groan coming from Noel. It made me satisfied knowing I got back at him at last. Now nothing can ruin my day and he better be out of my door before I return.

I went back to the kitchen to finish my food then I realized it must have been cold. I sighed in frustration 'it won't have been cold if that jerk hadn't shown up, I didn't think an unpremeditated fool would appear today' it was a good thing I was able to get rid of him.

Jay stop cussing!

"One day just one day I will hurt that piece of shit." I grit and went to microwave my cold food since mom hates food wastage then ate silently on the island with my phone in hand. After I was done I washed the  dishes and clean up the house before taking my bag and keys for my day at the grocery shop.
