“I didn’t mean that. I was hurting and I hurt you too, for that I will continue to apologize until you believe me.”
“I believe you; can I leave now?” I get up.
“Jade, Lolade drugged you.” Shock has my feet frozen in place and my mind blazing, that can’t be true. My body drops into the chaise. “Lolade drugged you is the reason you were so out of it. I didn’t watch the video till the end as you probably guessed, I couldn’t, but Rilwan did, and turns out you were calling the guy you were making out with Naseer. She forgot to edit that part out.”
“You are lying Naseer, Lolade would never do that to me,” I shouted at him.
“You told Rilwan you couldn’t remember anything, so he went to the club, sniffed around, paid someone and he got a recording of Lolade putting something in the drink when you and Tito weren’t looking. You refused the drink, and she kept pushing you to have it. The recording Rilwan found showed you completely out of it and calling the guy Naseer. The guy knew you were not yourself and took advantage of you.”
“I can’t believe she would do that to me, doesn’t make any sense.”
“I spoke to Lolade, she found out about you and Bosun. She got upset, felt betrayed, and wanted to destroy us.”
“That’s not fair, I broke up with Bosun before they started dating, and I don’t talk or call him. Why would she drug me?” she exhales, palms her face in exasperation.
“She feels like you lied to her.”
“She didn’t speak to me first, instead she drugs me, what if I’d OD? That’s just too much!”
“Yes, and I’m glad you didn’t overdose.”
“Thank you Naseer, can I have my phone back now? I need to get going before it gets dark.”
“Jade. I can’t let you leave.” He’s now on his knees in front of me, cupping my face so I can look at him.
“Naseer, I’m not upset but maybe this is a sign for us to move on from each other.”
“Your friend tested our love and she failed.”
“Naseer, I do need to leave so I can think. Aunty Lara was right, I need to be on my own for a while.”
“Jade please don’t analyze us; we had a fight and I admit I overreacted. I promise to make it up to you, but I honestly can’t afford to give you a chance to analyze us, that would paralyze us. And your aunty isn’t right about us.”
“You said you never want to see me again.”
“I was upset, remember when you were upset and told me I don’t love you and said we were done? I didn’t get upset because I knew you were angry; can you do the same for me now and not get upset by the things I said in anger.”
“That’s not fair, I had every right to be upset. In your case.” I paused, I wanted to say he didn’t have any right, but there was a recording, and it was clear as day. I probably would have reacted the same way too. I sigh “Fine, I see your point though I didn’t like you kicking me out.”
“I’m sorry my lady.” He smiles and kisses my forehead.
“Naseer, I do need to get back to school.”
“I know, just not today. The plan was Tuesday. Can we continue with that plan?”
“Fine, I do need to shower and I’m hungry.”
“Okay, I’ll order us something while you shower.”
I get up from the chaise and realize I need to speak with Rilwan. He’s my guardian angel. I headed to the door. “Naseer, please unlock the door.”
“Why?” He looks perplexed like I’m about to sprint out the door after agreeing to stay.
“I need to speak with Rilwan, and I hope you aren’t planning on locking me in here till Tuesday.”
“If that’s what it takes to get my apology through, I will” He kissed my cheek and unlock the door and I head to Rilwan.
NASEER.
