UNTIL I MET YOU : CHAPTER 131 – 140
Leslie doesn’t look okay. She looks like she’s been crying. Her knees her pull up to her chest with her arms around her knees.
” Why don’t you mind your business.” Leslie says through gritted teeth.
” Damn , you’re already famous on Snapchat.”
” You uploaded that ?” Hazel asks.
” Yeah. You have issues with that ?” Alexa asks.
” You’re so annoying. I mean why would you do that ?”
” I don’t know. Maybe I just thought it’s a nice idea to let the world laugh at you.” Alexa says calmly. She points at Leslie and burst into squeals of laughter. This is so embarrassing.
” Why are you here in the first place ?” Leslie asks.
” f**k you.” Alexa spits and pick up the TV remote. She cross her legs and tune the television.
I sigh and go to my room. I’m really exhausted right now and what I want is a good sleep and maybe a massage. I quickly shower and clean myself off the water. I open my closet and decide against skirt and dress. I put on a black flay dress with sleeves and white collar. It drop on top of my knees as I step inside my flats. I brush my hair and curl it. I stare at my reflection and sigh. I comb the curls and it turns to waves. I smile at my reflection and pick up my bag. I walk back to the living room and stop in my track. Alexa is exchanging words with Leslie.
” Jesus , Alexa. Let’s get out of here.” I grab Alexa’s elbow and drag her out of the apartment.
She breathes in once we step inside the elevator and brush her black hair off her face.
” What was that all about ?” I ask.
” She’s a hoe.” Alexa replies and scoffs.
” She’s so f**kin lucky. If not for this stupid bullet wound , I would have beat her up so bad.” She sighs.
Blue whimpers on the floor. I bent down and pick her up as I caress her.
“I’m really sorry about that.” I say. She nods and tuck her loose strands behind her ear. We walk out of the elevator and slide into my car.
I drop her off at the hospital and she ask me to leave that she’ll be fine and she’ll hail a cab. I give her Blue and leave. I ignite the engine and start driving. 10 minutes later , I arrive at Sterling Corp. Now I’m nervous. What am I supposed to tell him ? I remember his coffee and drive back to the Cafe to get it. Thank God , there’s no que. I paid for his espresso and walk back to my car.
I pull my car close to other cars and step out. I rush into the building and greet the lady at the reception. She reply as I walk past her. Most workers stare at me for some awkward reasons but I’m sure it’s because of my outfit.
” Hey , there.” The manager greets as she stands in front of me.
” Hi. Good afternoon.”
She smiles weirdly and nod.
” I like your dress. Where did you get it ?” She ask.
” At the store.”
” What store ?” I roll my eyes at her ridiculous question as i walk past her.
“Sleeping with Gray Carter shouldn’t make you feel special. You’re still a slut.” I hear the manager mutters.
I bite my tongue and breathe in. I’m not gonna reply that. I take the elevator and press Theo’s floor button. I lean against the wall and wait till it ascend. It stops and the doors slide open. I drop my bag on my desk and knock on his door.
” Who’s there ? Whatever just come in.” He says from inside.
I open the door slowly and walk inside. I shut the door and turn to face him. He has a visitor and they seems to notice my presence cause they stop talking. Both men turn around as I stare at Freddie. What’s he doing here ?
” Miss Peterson.” Theo looks down at me. I gulp and shift my gaze to Freddie who won’t stop looking at me.
” I’m sorry.” That’s the first word that escape from my mouth.
” Wait outside.” Theo says and dismiss me. I nod and drop the coffee on his desk.
