Dinner was over and they were sitting in the living room sipping shakes when Maya enter the house shouting for Caleb at the top of her lungs. Mrs. Melissa frowns in frustration as she stands up, her hands crossed.
"That son-of-a-bitch! Where is he?" Maya shouts. "Calm down child, I do not tolerate such language in my house." Mrs. Melissa said with authority.
Maya was crying so hard she was literally shaking and Fabian could see the rage, the hurt, and definitely the pain; the pain was blindingly obvious in her eyes and voice.
"Really? You don't tolerate such language but you tolerate your whoring son with a slap on the wrist, bad boy, bad boy, don't do it again, go to your room, with his video games, and everything for his comfort!" She screams.
"You're the reason he's like this, you let him get away with everything, everything! I've never met a more lying, disgusting, deceiving, conniving person in my life!" She screams crying even harder.
"Let me guess, he's still sleeping with Latoya, isn't he?" Anna asks in a sympathetic tone. "La….Latoya?" Maya half laughs through her blinding rage. "This is who your disgusting brother is," Maya said taking out the photos and throwing one at each person in the room.
"Not only is he sleeping with Latoya, he's also sleeping with….. you know what, to hell with sleeping because he isn't sleeping with them, these are the women he's currently having sex with!" Angry tears ran down her face as she points to the photos.
"I know they're very graphic but your son has a way of talking his way out of things. Not only is he having sex with Latoya, he's also intimate with these two, this one." She said pointing at one of the photos with shaking fingers. "This one works for Latoya, I don't know who she is." She cried pointing to the other photo.
"And my sister, the disgusting asshole is having sex with my sister, see I knew something was going on between them, I knew it! I knew there was no way she could afford all those things on her own, I knew it!" She screams.
"Out of the millions of women in this world and he had to walk into my life, my life! And I fell for him, I fell hard, all I wanted was to be his wife. You know, I knew he wasn't a saint but I thought I could make him a better person, damn, I was so stupid!" She groans Mrs Melissa went over to hug her but she shrugged out of her hands.
"Don't touch me, this's all your fault, you spoiled your son and harbor disgusting gays in your house, no wonder he's like this." She screams in a hostile tone.
Fabian quietly ushered Amara and his twins up the stairs as Maya continues to scream at the top of her lungs. "He said he loved me, that he wanted to marry me, be the man of my dreams. He promised that he wouldn't hurt me again and I been the idiot that I am, I believed him!" She cried pulling her hair like a crazy person.
"This's the kind of pain Amara's dad was trying to protect her from, yes he went about it the wrong way but the thought of his daughter going through something this horrible was enough to drive any father to madness."
"Come and sit down my child, remember your pressure, you shouldn't be upsetting yourself like this, please come and sit, and calm down, please, and Anna, please get her some water." Mrs. Melissa said in concern as she once again tried to approach a distraught Maya.
"Don't touch me! And I don't want any damn water. He was my first, my only, I loved him, I love him, I still do, why? Why wasn't I enough for him? What, because I don't look like Janice, that bitch! What does she have that I don't? I hate him, I hate her!"
Fabian came back downstairs in time to see Maya sway and grab the back of the sofa. He rushed towards her but she collapses before he could reach her. "Good heavens." Mrs Melissa gasps rushing over to Maya.
"Call an ambulance, now!" Fabian shouts as he began assessing Maya, then realizing that she wasn't breathing he began doing CPR on her chest. "Mom get the A E D (Automated external defibrillator) from the first aid kit, just in case and someone call Dad," he shouts as his hands continue to move.
"When I get my hands on Caleb ….Oh man…I'm going to beat him to a pulp." Fabian swears. "Get in line," Anna adds. "What's the point." His mother said In a defeated tone as she placed the A E D beside him.
"It's not like we didn't know, ever since he told us about these women we knew this was coming. We knew she would find out and we knew she would be furious. This's why your dad was so angry at him because we knew this was coming. I'm so disappointed in that boy." His mother said with a heavy sigh.
