Chapter 21→Aaliyah

"Dinner is served" I said setting the takeout in front of Zion
"Take out. Again" Zion groaned
"You try having a job. And taking care of a grown ass man all while slaying" I said flipping my hair
"OOp. Sorry" Zion laughed

I took a seat before closing my eyes to say a quick prayer. I opened my eyes to see Zion opening his pill bottle. He took 4 out making my eyes go wide

"Uhh. What happened to 2 every 6 hours?" I asked
"Oh, he upped my dosage" Zion said referring to his doctor
"Zion, I don't think they would up your dosage. Your shoulder is fine" I resorted
"Oh so now you're a doctor" Zion snapped
"No, but I am your wife" I said back

I saw Zion's eyes flash anger making me cower inside. But there was no backing down from this one

"So that automatically gives you some sort of leash on my life!" Zion yelled standing up
"Look I don't know who the fuck you're yelling at but I care about you Zion" I said in a calming tone
"If you "cared" you wouldn't be asking me about things that are aimed to make me better" Zion said
"Zion that pill contains a highly addictive substance" I resorted
"Says who?" He asked

I pulled my phone out. Opening Photos and scrolling to the screenshot I took earlier. I slid it towards Zion who took a good look before chuckling and sliding it back to me

"When you're done with your tomfoolery. Give me a call" he said before grabbing his duffel that sat at the door and exiting. Completely ignoring my pleas.

*6 hours later

Zion's been gone a good 6 hours and I was beginning to become worried, this drug was something to be reckoned with and I was determined to make sure Zion wouldn't fall victim to it.

I had begun a through search of the house and recovered 2 full bottles in his underwear. 1 in the medicine cabinate. 3 under the bed and 2 hiding in the kitchen. I was beyond shocked that Zion would be able to get this many bottles for his shoulder.

Upon further investigation I realised they were all prescribed from different doctors to Zion.

There was a loud bang at the door. Making me shove all the pills into my bag before making my way downstairs. I opened the door to reveal a police officer.

"May I help you?" I asked slightly worried
"We're looking for a Mrs Aaliyah Kuwonu" He said reading off his note pad
"Speaking" I said now worried
"I believe this is yours" he said stepping aside.

Behind him stood a handcuffed Zion, they uncuffed him. Warning him that they'd arrest him and take him to the station next time he was caught in possession of drugs before releasing him. I thanked the officers before closing the door

"Drug possession!?" I questioned turning to face Zion "Really now Zion!"
"I'm not in the-
"Oh you'll be in the mood when I'm done with you!" I snapped cutting him off
"Look Aaliyah. I had a long day. Can I just go to bed" he yawned

I huffed, already tired of his bullshit

"I'll take the guest room" I mumbled before switching the lights off. Leaving Zion in the dark.

Well well well

Trouble in paradise.

I really don't know an addictive drug. Someone needs to research this for me cause I'm lazy
