GENESIS
"Jordan...." I called out to him and he snapped his attention to me almost immediately.
"Is something wrong?" I asked sensing the fear in him as I had never before. He wasn't the kind of man to get frightened, neither had he done anything that would warrant him to get scared except it was something I didn't know.
"No...." He replied and forced a smile. I stared at him, his smile didn't convince me and my uncertainty rose. I couldn't help but ask myself if he was as innocent as he claimed, especially when it concerned my case. I knew Samantha was part of it and had caused all that happened to me. But how sure was I that Jordan wasn't a part of all this too?
I sighed heavily at that thought, here we were again going back and forth concerning something that should have been done, closed, and over a long time ago. I turned to the door and back to Jordan.
"Well...let's go" I turne
JORDAN"What did I just do?" I questioned myself, annoyed at myself."What was I thinking lying to her like that?" I sighed heavily and looked up at her from where Ii sat at the dinning table, her eyes met mine with nothing but suspicion written all over her, and just like I had been doing for days, I looked away.There was something about those blue eyes of hers, they looked so pure, it expressed her deepest emotions. If you look closely enough, you would know what she feels while looking at those eyes of hers, and just like they mirror her feelings, it feels like they also pierce into the soul of whoever she is staring at.For over some days, guilt had been the only thing eating me up. I found out my girlfriend had indeed kidnapped her as she had been saying all along and I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to send Samantha to jail, and I also wanted justice for Genesis. But m
GENESISTears came running down my cheeks and I didn't even realize it till I had to wipe my cheeks. Being there was breaking every fiber I had and destroying everything I had thought I had one by one. I realized that I only had myself, no one else cared about me, none loved me, neither was anyone truly concerned. I was on my own without a true friend in that house. I still didn't understand how my life took such a drastic turn. From Genesis who was loved by her friends and family and even Nate to Genesis who was married to a man who didn't care about me but that of his mistress. Jordan didn't only cheat, he had lied and deceived me, he had played me and hurt me so deeply.To think I was going to help him see Samantha for who she truly was, I had forgiven all the terrible things he did to me like they were nothing and had tolerated all he had been doing because I wanted to be strong for my parents and Ava and myself
JORDAN"She left, mom," I said into the phone with a heavy heart. I didn't know what else to do nor did I know where I was supposed to begin from. My heart was filled with worry and anxiety, I could no longer think straight. I knew it was my fault, it was all my fault, I had lied to her, I had cheated her of the justice she truly deserved, I had acted like I shouldn't and I had thrown my uprightness away without a second thought because I wanted to save Samantha and correct the mistake she had made."What do you mean by she left?" The sleepy tone my mom started with disappeared almost immediately and panic replaced it. I sighed heavily and ran my hands through my hair in agitation."Genesis left the house," I said calmly knowing she wouldn't understand what I was saying if I just keep blurting out things. I have never been so messed up or worried."What do you mean by she left the h
A FEW DAYS LATERJORDANMy father was saying lots of things that sounded like bullshits to my ears. They were the only things he was good at, saying tons of bullshit about his name, his wealth, and the reputation he had built for himself. I have been hearing that for a long time and it became worse when Genesis left. It turned out that someone saw us and made a video. It was going viral and my name, my character, and that of Genesis were being questioned none stop. I have not been able to leave my house in peace and my father was not making things easier.I didn't wait for him to finish the last sentence he was about to make, my ears were just beginning to ache and I hung up on him and smashed my phone against whatever it was I smashed it against because his words were all too annoying and it was painful to just hear them.My head was still hurting and no matte
JORDAN"Jordan...." I heard Samantha's voice from the door of our bedroom and looked away from my phone, I turned to the door. She was poking her head through the door like she was scared of coming in. I sighed heavily, I couldn't stay angry at her for such a long time though this had more momentum. With my head, I nudged and urged her to come. She came in skeptically and stared at me nervously. But she stood some distance away from me like she was scared I would hurt her. I didn't blame her, I had been doing that for a while because she had been getting me really upset. I remembered the way she had spoken to the Connors, I also remembered the way they stared at me and the things my mother-in-law had said.Their daughter was living in my house and making everyone believe that her life was perfect. Everyone thought she was happy and I believed she would have preferred it that way because she wouldn't ha
GENESISMy heart skipped at the words that came out from Jordan but what was more shocking was the way he glared at his father and his father, back at him. I never realized that they both never had a good father and son relationship."Get your hands off me, you dimwit" Liam, his father pulled his hands away from Jordan's grip and turned his attention to me. My heart skipped at the intensity of his gaze, and I had to turn away again and lower my gaze."Don't say anything to her and just leave" I heard Jordan speak up and immediately lifted my gaze. He was staring at his father with so much anger, it was evident that the slap his father gave to me was not the only reason. Not like he had ever cared that much for me anyway. Mr. Liam turned to his son and just like before, they glared at each other once more."The both of you should stop this now" Mom Leona yelled from where she stood b
GENESISMy eyes snapped back to Jordan, utterly shocked that he would say something like that. His knees were still on the floor, and this time, he had the boldness and guts to finally look at me in my face. And a serious look on his face that almost made me believe that he could do it. But my heart knew better than to not trust a word that comes out of his mouth. My shock was instantly replaced by amusement, dark amusement and a burst of laughter erupted from my throat. I laughed at his face and did that so loud, tears quickly formed in my eyes. I wished he could do what he said, but I knew it was simply a wish, a dream, a tiny spark of hope in the deepest part of my heart and that was exactly what hurt more.When I was done laughing, I wiped my tears and stared at him."You can do that and more," I repeated his words."Tell me, can you do that and more?" I asked and
JORDANI frowned and stared at the woman who seemed shocked at what I said."I can make you happy, and I would do that because you deserve it. I can make a good husband, I will give you all you want and treat you better""And Samantha?" She asked me and I smiled."I might not be able to send her to prison but I would send her away. She would no longer live in our house and you would not have to put up with her. And I promise, she would not be able to hurt you as well" I said with relief in my heart. But for some reason, Genesis still had a frown on her face. It seemed like she wasn't satisfied with all I was willing to do and that bothered me."You don't look happy" I simply said to her."Of course I am not happy, what makes you think I want to return to you?" She said and I frowned."But you said.....""I said what I said but th
