Conflicts And Regrets

Neal's House 

Making my way downstairs to meet the familiar voice that has been screaming in my house, 

I didn't like the sight and the terrorized look on Sofia, the help's face,

As this intruder was screaming in her face and almost tearing her apart.

"What do you think you're doing!?" I shouted at her 

My voice echoed in the room and there was an instant silence. 

I've already made it down to the sitting room where they were 

"Sofia please leave us" I told her, but  she tried to apologize maybe for letting this intruder in.

But I just gave her a dismissal look which she obliged.

"What the hell are you doing in my house Diane? And who told you that you could come here without my permission!?" I screamed at her; giving her a disdainful look.

"I've been trying to locate you. Why have you decided to ignore me for this past month? I thought you had forgiven me?" she said 

"Forgiveness?, you must be crazy or your brain is rotten that it stopped to function" I said

"Please take me back Neal, I'm truly sorry" she said tearing up 

I knew she was faking it but I was repelled by her tears

"Do not waste your talent crying, they're worthless to me" I said

She came closer trying to force a kiss

I gave her a push which made her land on the floor, she looked petrified.

"Get out while you still can" I sneered at her.

"All I need is a second chance, please Neal I made a mistake and am sorry, have you not done something in your life that you regret?" she asked 

This time I was already fuming with rage 

"You, you do not have the right to question or judge me whatever we had was over; I don't remember asking you or even giving you my home address, so how the hell did you locate me!?" I shouted at her

My voice was so loud that even the deaf could hear.

"You're not that difficult to find, locating you was easy because I was too determined to find you" she said in a quivering tone. 

"get out of my house before I do something unimaginable to you, you know I hate it when a person invades my privacy…..," 

I was shouting at her but she was so determined to achieve her quest she was being stubborn.

 I mean who was I kidding Diane has always been clingy, I used to adore that about her

 but now she is the most selfish and thoughtless human being I've ever met in my life.

 She had even set me up one time. 

All the anger and hatred I felt for came rushing in before I could take control over my temper I was already 

dragging her by the hand to throw her out of the house  But she clung to my leg.

 Who even let this sneaky  and treacherous woman into my home? they will have me to deal with

Looking at her conniving face, the urge to unleash my anger on her surged but I refused to act on it.

Who in hell does she think she is?, she don't know who she was dealing with, 

I had always been kind to her because we used to be a thing. 

"You're scum and my worst regret," I said to her, giving her a murderous glare.

 As I continued to drag her, I was already at the door, unlocking the door and making a move to push her outside 

"Who the hell is she!?" I heard Olivia's voice 

I looked up and she was standing on the stairs.

Has she been watching the whole time? I thought to myself

"Who is this woman? And why are you dragging her out?…" she asked 

As she stood where she was. 

"….And why is she at our home anyway?" she kept asking. 

I turned my head giving more attention to Olivia before Diane apparently loosen herself from my grip. 

"Isn't it obvious that I've been asking your brother to have mercy on me?..." Diane spoke 

"….but he's so adamant and he has chosen not to, could you please beg him on my behalf? " she told Olivia

But I only gave her a disdainful glare.  Which made her shut her mouth. 

"Why are you at our house uninvited? Stranger!" Olivia spoke up 

looking at me as if I had something to do with this crazy woman coming to the house.

Before Diane could explain I spoke up 

"Olive, please go back to your room, I'll  explain later," I cautioned her.

"and as for you your greatest mistake was coming here" I told her before pushing her outside.

I ordered the security that if they ever see her near the house again without hesitation make sure she leaves in a body bag.

Before I slammed the door. 

She had set me up one time and I'm never giving her the chance to try again. 

I went back inside meeting Olivia  there halfway, she folded her hands under her breast,

Her face stared at me with too many questions. 

"Olivia, not now, I'll answer your questions later, right now I'm in no mood please…" I pleaded with her 

"….I will explain later but please not now okay?"

I was glad she didn't insist so I just made my way to my office which was in the house. 

 I sat down as the image of my previous encounter with Diane lingers in my mind,

She used to be my girlfriend but I still wondered what's change that made her so brutal and almost ruined my business and my reputation. 

When I first met Diane, she was this sweet woman you wouldn't imagine that she could hurt a fly,

She was so kind and considerate that I could have without a doubt given up my life for her, but damn was I wrong.

I Had introduced her to  my friends and I've always made her feel belonged.

I even gave her a job at my company, to work as the assistant director of information in the department.

 I never knew I was digging my own grave, everything was going well. I was even having this idea in my head of maybe having a family with her because I mean she was so nice. 

Initially I was just using her to distract myself from whatever intimate feelings I was developing for Olivia, before I started feeling something genuine for her.

But along the line she just showed herself to be a vulture that only feast on corpses

She stole valuable information from the company and tried to sell them to our  competitors, at first I thought she was being blackmailed,

Not until I got to find out that she did it on her own Accord. 

As if that was not enough I never knew she had a record of us where we were both having sex,

  Her face was hidden in the video but Mine clearly showed and she had other pictures of I and Olivia, so that if she had given them to the press they would mistake Olivia to be the one in the video. 

Part of it was my fault because I've always clung to Olivia whenever we go out or on vacation that one can easily mistake us as lovers. 

She blackmailed me with it that if I involved the authorities and not let her go for stealing the information from the company that she would release it to the press. 

 I couldn't care less, I mean who doesn't fuck around once in a while but the treachery was coming from somebody that I have genuinely come to trust someone I was even considering to make a part of my life.

And she had to involve Olivia in her scheme.

I wanted to know where it all went wrong. 

Yes, I must have been seen as a terrible person, a terror or a womanizer you name it but I've never made a woman cry, I  only got their panties wet while giving them pleasure.

For Diane I was willing to change, In all my wrong doing I've never forced myself on any woman not even her.

 Rather they benefited from me, I  gave them lavish lifestyle, vacations, to wherever they could think of. 

I have always given them a luxurious living that none of them could complain and they were grateful but yet again the heart always want what it wants, 

this time it wanted someone that was poison to my soul.
