Mira was sitting in the living room busy with her phone.
Lately we have been drifting further apart.. Since the issue of moving out popped up.. She has been uncomfortable and although she's been pretty good at hiding her reactions but it becoming More obvious lately
I tried to ignore her sacarsm but she's my friend. No matter how things turn out.... I know I would love to know she's doing fine and not just lonely
"Heyyy Mira... How's it going "
"Great.... How are you today "
Beneath the strength and courage, I can see fear.... Why is she covering it up.. I won't stop until I find out what is going on
"Am fine actually...... No work today "
"Nah... I decided to just stay and rest "
"That's good...... Have Juliet called you today "
"No she hasn't.. "
"Better.. I don't want her disturbing you because now you need to rest "
"No... Don't tell her that. If she needs me I can be available "
"But You just said... You needed to rest "
"I know... But... You know how your friend is. She might just stop calling if I say am unavailable one time "
Nice cover... Am getting close, You will have to talk to me eventually Mira.. You know I dont give up. That's my job.... To persuade, convince and abstract
"Look .. She can't say that... She's my good friend and I can assure you that she's not that insensitive "
Well she is quite insensitive but that's not where am driving at
"I understand but.. i just started working for her. I wouldn't want her to think that I'm instable "
"Stop thinking for others Mira .. There's no need to worry.. Your services to Juliet is secured. You have nothing to worry about "
"You're right.... Am getting worked up for nothing besides she hasn't even called..... Has she "
"No she hasn't... But my other friend uhm...a friend of Juliet actually needs a makeup artist for a party tonight "
"Ohhh is that so.... "
"Yes but you won't be available now.... And my car is not even here.. I would have taken you there "
"Where is the place "
"Somewhere far but dont worry about it "
"Lemme worry... It's not everyday you get a new client "
"But You just said... "
"Forget about what I said... This is important... Any source of income is important.... Now how do I get the address "
I just glared at her as she jumped on her feet
"Cmon Genee... Let's not waste any more time... I have to start going.The place is far You said so yourself "
"I haven't even told her.. You are coming "
"Then do so immediately... Place a call across to her now pls before she calls someone else ... Why are you staring at me like that ...... Call her already "
"There's no client ... Anywhere "
"What"
"I just made that up.. Nobody is waiting for you anywhere "
"Wait.. What..... Are you joking right now "
"No am not..... I wanted to see your reaction and I got it"
"So You decided to play pranks for what..... I don't get it.. Do you find this funny coz I don't find it funny "
""I didn't do it for the fun part . I did it so I can know what's going on with you "
"How does this resolve anything "
"When You refused to talk to me I had to find out some other way "
"What are we not talking about.... "
"The mood swings... The silence, The aggressive attitude everything Mira everything "
"Have You taken time to check if you are not the one.... Reading meanings to everything "
"That would be true... If you are not actually acting the way I just described "
"You know what.... I cant deal with this right now... I have enough on my head "
"Why wouldn't you just share with me.... I know if it were me.... You wouldn't stop trying "
"Well this is different..... You don't have to bother about a thing... Why stress yourself over nothing ... Why bother when you are leaving anyway "
With that she picked up her phone and left the room
All through the years I have known Mira.. This is the most angry version of her that I have ever seen.....
She's always sweet.. Cool headed, understanding and loving person
When we first met... And when we stayed together at the shelter, she was the only person that understood my person and respect my privacy.. While others bullied me and tease me around
She would always defend me... At first I thought she was being over nice and pretending to be a good person
But with time I understand that she was just another lonely individual who yearns for affection and family
Her beauty became a tool that people pry on and took advantage of..
She was then used and thrashed by heartless selfish men
when Bobby came.. I was more than happy for her.... Because she has always wanted to be a part of something big and motherhood was it for her
I agreed I didn't keep up with her after she was deported, I was occupied in my own world but I never forgot about her
How can I forget the next person to sisterhood for me..
And maybe I'm absorbed by vengeance and anger of my past but I wouldn't wish her to be unhappy for whatsoever reasons
I thought back and forth about what to do and by evening
My phone rings and it Simon
I don't think I can go anywhere to night am emotionally drained
"Hello.. "
"Hello Angel... How are you feeling today, hope you saw my SMS this morning "
You call that crappy Line from Google ....an sms, I didn't even waste time reading it
"Yeah I did "
"I hope you liked it"
"Yes it's cool and pls don't call me angel. It genesis "
, "yeah it like they are related somehow "
"Only in your head"
"Okay so are you ready "
"Uhmmm actually am occupied with something.. I'll just call you when I'm ready and if you can't wait.... You can go"
"Ohhh... The thing is am actually downstairs now... Do you think you can come downstairs "
"You are outside right now "
"Yeah "
Ohhh Philip would be there
What do I do now.....
This is just an harmless fun.
I think I can get through a night
"Just hold on... Lemme freshen up. Am coming "
"Alright my love "
Who's your love
