Chapter 16 Not Fair
Christy heard a knock and rush
to open the door, she was worried
about Bridget because she didn’t
know what to tell her mother if
she ask of her.
"Bridget… you came back".
"Yea.. what do you think? You
thought he will kill me? and you,
what really happen there, and how
did you get hurt?"
Christy didn’t say anything.
"Am I not asking you, how did you
get hurt,? Paul told me you got hurt."
"No, am fine."
"Hmmm, so what happen to him,?
who clamed him down,? because
what I gave you to put in that drink
was drug that will make him want
to have sex, so if he is ok the way
I saw him it means that someone
calmed him down."
"I don’t know what you are talking
about."
"Yea, why will you know always
a pretender, you think I don’t know
he had sex with you.?"
"What? Shee.. don’t shout please,
he was begging me and I didn’t know
what to do."
"Hmmm, look at you, always
enjoying the works of my hands.
You are going to pay me or I will
tell mother."
"No..no..no.. how much do you
want?, I will pay you."
"Did he give you money?"
"Yes,"
"Bring it out now," she ordered and
Christy have no choice but to
bring out everything.
"Wowwww.. this Paul must love
you a lot" she start to think, if I
can’t get him, I will at least get
his money through Christy.
"What do you want to do with
this money.?"
"I don’t know," Christy reply.
"Ok, since you don’t have anything
to do with it, let me make use of it,
I will pay you back when you
need it."
"Ok, but please don’t tell mother
anything."
"Don’t worry about that, just do as
I say and you wouldn’t have a
problem with mother ok."
Christy nods her head.
Bridget want out and start
spending the money.
"Where did you get the money
to buy all this cloths" her mother
ask.
"Well mom, you don’t know that
I have started working part-time
job, because I don’t want to keep
disturbing you of little money that
I can afford for myself."
"Really? This is good news, not
like this good for nothing girl here,"
she pointed at Christy who just
stood there looking at them.
"Christy do you like this one? take it"
she threw one of the dress at her."
"No.. don’t give it to her, she is so
lazy, can’t she go and work part-time
too" the mother said.
"Don’t worry mom, let her have
that one, so people will not say
we are mistreating her."
"Hmmm, shameless girl, take that
thing and get out of my face the
mother said."
Christy took the dress and went
back to her room crying.
Within minutes Bridget enters
Christy's room.
"Why are you crying, you like
crying too much, this little thing
you’ve started crying, I did that
so mother will not question you
were you got the money to buy
the cloths., now take this five
cloths, they will fit you perfectly
well."
Christy took the cloths and wipe
her tears.
"Thank you Bridget."
"You are welcome, if you do as I
say, there will be no problem ok."
"Ok."
Sharon has been waiting for Paul
to reach out to her but he wasn’t
going to do that anytime soon.
So she decided to visit.
"Heyy… Sharon how are you doing?
Is been long since I saw you, I
hope no problem?." Paul's mom ask once Sharon enters the house.
"No, there’s no problem at all."
"Ok how is your mom and
everyone doing?."
"They are doing fine, can I see Paul?
She ask."
Yes, I think he is in the garage.
Ok, let me see him
Ok, always feel free to visit anytime.
Yes ma. She said and went in search of Paul.
Heyy.. there you are, I’ve been looking for you.
What for? Paul ask without looking at her.
Are you not happy to see me?
Why should I? But on a second thought, you brought us home that day at the club right?
Yes.
Good, can you be kind enough to tell me what happened to me, why Patrick found me sleeping inside the restroom?
I don’t know Sharon said, not liking where this conversation is going.
You drugged me, and may I ask why? Paul stood up to face Sharon.
Stop saying things you don’t have proof of.
I know you want me so badly, so drugging me to have your way wouldn’t be much of a problem, am I right?
Paul stop, am going.
You are going no where because if you don’t tell me the truth I will go out there and tell my mom that you do drugs.
What? Are you trying to blackmail me?
Is that what you call it? Paul ask.
If you don’t tell me the truth, your mom will know about it.
Fine, what are you going to do to me if I tell you the truth.
Nothing, I just want to know what happened to me.
Ok, I drugged you and have my way with you, that is what happened.
Paul stood there looking at Sharon like he was not seeing her
Hello Paul, are you ok?
You know what Sharon, leave my house and never come back. If you do, I will report this issues to my mom, and I will make sure to press charges.
Sharon left feeling really bad about what she has done.
What is going on with me? Why are all the girls coming after me with full force. Am I the only handsome guy in town? The only girl I want is Christy and nothing else.
She makes me feel like a real man, not this girls who know everything. How can a woman use drugs more than a man?.
Son are you done with the car? Let’s go we are behind time.
Mom am almost done.
Paul went out for shopping with his mom at the most expensive place in town.
Son take anything you want ok.
Paul don’t really need anything but then he remembered Christy. Yes, I have to buy things for her, so he went shopping for female items.
What are you doing, shopping for who?
My friend, Paul said. I went to get her something.
Ok, his mother said thinking is for Sharon.
What do I buy for her? Ok I know, she needs a phone, and clothes, he saw a very beautiful underwear, then he looked at his mom but she was busy with her own shopping, so he slides it among his stuff.
Mom am done
Let me see what you’ve got.
Just this? Nothing for yourself?
No mom, I don’t need any thing for myself, but do you have any idea of what a girl will like?
Yes, come, she took Paul to the necklace stand and bought a very expensive necklace and hand it to Paul.
This is a gift from me to you, you can give it to her. She said.
Thank you mom, you are the best mom in the world.
You are welcome, anything for my son.
Paul could not wait to see Christy, he wants to give her everything he has bought for her.
How do I get to her? Since she didn’t have a phone? Maybe I will just call that Bridget.
He took out his phone to call Bridget.
Hello Bridget can I speak with Christy
No. Why do you want to speak with her through my phone? You don’t like me right? So stop calling my phone. She wants to press end call when Paul suddenly speak.
Bridget is not like that, I didn’t say that I hate you, ok I promise to take you girls out if you will let me speak with Christy.
Really? Ok wait let me take the phone to Christy.
Ok, thanks.
She ran to Christy’s room to give her the phone.
Christy take is Paul, he wants to speak with you.
Hello, is me Christy.
How are you? Paul ask.
Am fine.
Can you come out, am in front of your house.
Ok, am coming. She hang up the phone.
He wants me to come outside but how do I go outside when am not going to buy something? She ask Bridget.
Wait I know what to do ok, just play along.
Christy nods her head.
Bridget ran out of Christy’s room to the sitting room where their mother was sitting and start shouting.
Christy, come out here.
Christy, What are you doing come out here,
Is she not hearing? The mother ask.
Yes, am coming Christy said walking towards them.
Look at her, do you want to tell me that you didn’t hear me. Bridget yell at her
Am sorry I didn’t hear.
Why will you hear? stupid girl the mother ask.
Please take that money I gave you and rush down town and buy me pad.
And make sure to come back quick. Bridget ordered.
Yes Bridget, she said and hurried out to see Paul.
