Days and weeks passed and now it's a month. I had been managing to live missing my boyfriend. I can not believe I could miss him like hell. I missed the moments we had spent together alot. He calls every day but that doesn't help when he's not here and now it's a month to go. I sighed and closed my eyes.
"Damn girl, you are thinking about him again aren't you?"Shawn asked. He had come to keep me company in the weekend. He and Andy have been so supportive lately and I love them for that.
"Noo. Why would I be doing that? Tch..."I rolled my eyes to hide the fact that I was lying.
"You think that eye roll is gonna hide the truth. I know you more than your stupid boyfriend."he told me.
"He's not stupid asshole."I defended.
"He's stupid and you are stupid too."he said and I looked at him with wide eyes and mouth. Is he insulting me?
"The fuck are you talking about?"I asked him.
"You obviously love him and he probably knows that but he's still across the damn planet when he can't go even for a day without seeing you. He should be here instead of video calling everyday telling you how much he loves you and misses you."Shawn said and I could not see his logic.
"For your information Shawn, I'm not in love with him yet and he's busy in China" I told him looking at his face smiling.
"Are we gonna discuss this again. You are fucking in love girl and no matter how you deny it, your heart will always talk the truth. I know you in side your heart and out side too. So when I tell you you are in love I know what I'm talking about."Shawn said smiling back at me and we stared at each other in silence till I made a huff sound and I looked away from him.
"You can't know what is in the other person's heart so stop lying."I told him.
"Okay maybe I don't but really your behaviour is really saying it all. You love him Kim. You've changed so much and I don't mean it in a bad way, I am just saying that when someone is in love is probably gonna behave like that. You're a goddamn psychiatrist you should know these things. How about you do what you do to others to yourself. By the way, what exactly do you do?"he asked and I didn't know what to say.
"I've probably told you that answer a hundred times. I will never be telling you again. If you don't remember go google what a psychiatrist does."I spoke in a not too high voice but it was high enough to considered as shouting.
"Chill out tigress. I just want you to do what you do and ask yourself, are you in love. Instead of always denying it just embrace it. It's not like it's a bad thing. Is it?"he asked and I didn't say anything. Why is it so easy to help others but you can't help yourself?" Because you're in denial."he suddenly said and I looked at him.
"How did you know what I was thinking about?"I asked him because he just did answer the question I was having on my mind.
"I could see those wheels turning in your damn eyes baby girl. Do you need a drink?"he asked getting up."this penthouse is so great I could get used to living here. It has a fucking bar. Kimberly, baby girl it's a good thing you are in love with your boyfriend otherwise where would I get to enjoy such expensive drinks. I should probably make a cocktail. What do you think?"he asked excitedly and I smiled following him.
"Do whatever you want. My boyfriend is a billionaire anyway."I replied then Shawn chuckled.
",I know right, now come and let's get drunk."he said. We started drinking for a while before Melissa joined us. She's been like living with me but we've not been that free though. She's been busy with work all time and we had had no time.
"Baby girl, tell me how you feel about Alex now."I heard Shawn ask but I can't really remember what I told him.
********************************Alex*****************************
Alex had just gotten out of a morning meeting and now he thought he should call Kimberly and hear what she's been up to the whole day. He miss her so much but he is surviving anyway. He got in the shower and later he called her after he got dressed.
"Hello baby."he said in the phone.,"wait why the fuck in the world do you have my girls phone?"he asked annoyed when he saw his sister in the screen.
"Because your girl is mad drunk asshole. I think she's going crazy dude."Melissa said.
"What do you mean going crazy? Where is she? Damnit I gave you one job, to watch over her. I want to see her. Now Meli." Alex screamed in the phone.
"Damn, would you stop screaming. I just arrived from work and I found her really drunk with her friend. How was I supposed to tell her to stop. You better come here and stop ordering me around. Kimberly is a grown ass woman who can do whatever she wants." Melissa told him. She went to where Kimberly was blacking out and tilted the screen to her so that Alex can see her. Alex cursed.
"Heey baby. Baby can you see me? It's Alex." He tried his best to wake her up. Kimberly slowly opened her eyes and looked into the screen. Shawn had long blacked out on the next couch.
"Alex, honey."she said in a voice more of a whisper.
"Yeah baby, it's Alex. Melissa go get her a glass of water. Damnit what was Shawn thinking making her drinks like that?"Alex asked annoyed.
"Who's gonna hold the phone for her dummy. Her friend is out of it. Damnit Alex you will have to come here." Melissa said.
"Okay. Now baby girl. Kimberly look at me okay. Can you hear me?"Alex asked her.
"Of course Alex. Are you back?"Kimberly asked.
"No baby I'm not back. I'll come soon okay. Now be good and not try to drink any more alcohol from now on okay?"Alex said frustratedly.
"But I miss you so much. When are you coming back? I miss you so much Alex. I can't stop thinking about you okay. You are always on my mind. I think I'm going crazy Alex. I'm I crazy Alex?" Kimberly asked in a heavy voice because of she was drunk.
"No baby, you are not crazy. You're normal it's just a phase okay. Now you gotta sober up a little I'll be there soon."Alex coaxed his baby girl.
"Wait will come? Oh Alex I miss you so much. I really really miss......."Kimberly blacked out. Alex cursed loudly and Melissa tilted the phone to her face.
"You see, that's what I'm talking about."Melissa said smiling and Alex smiled too nodding. He just heard something he had been waiting to hear from Kimberly and now his heart can't even rest well.
"I'll see what I can do Meli. Just make sure she's fine."Alex finally said.
"It's okay but so you know I have a lot in my plate right now. There are two drunk people here. You will have to pay for this."Melissa said annoyed.
"You are my sister, you are supposed to do this for me without complaining."Alex said.
"Oh really, maybe Lexi would do this without much complaints. This is too much work. You fucking forced me to stay here and you know how much work I have. She's not a kid Alex. I'm tired from office work and now I'm about to get more tired. I'm not Lexi who had same brain with you."Melissa said angrily and then she realised what she said when she saw Alex's face become so dark." Fuck!! I'm sorry Alex. I didn't mean to talk about Lexi. God, I'm just stressed okay. Alex I take that back......."
"No need once something is said it cannot be taken back. I'll see what I can do so you won't have to get tired so much little sister."Alex said and then he hung up.
