PIZZA GIRL
DIANA
“My mother did all that?” I asked as tears heat my eyes.
“Yes she did. She was such a pu**y to my mom.” He said and I sighed cleaning my eyes.
“So your mother told Isaac this?” I asked and he nodded.
“She did. But I guess he wanted to keep it from you.” He said.
“Why would he do that?” I asked and he shrugged his shoulders.
“Sometimes, the people we trust, aren’t the one we should put our trust in.” He said and I looked away.
“Isaac would have his reasons for keeping it from me.” I said produly.
“It doesn’t justify the fact that he is keeping secrets from you, not especially now your life is at stake. You need to know everything.” He said and I nodded standing up.
“Why are you telling me all this?” I asked looking at him.
“Because you deserve to know the truth.” He said standing up.
“And don’t you think I could use this against your mother? Since my mother did all these bad things to your mother, taking her son, she would want revenge.” I said and he smiled.
“My mother didn’t do it. If at all she wanted to take Revenge she would never take it out on you. Your own mother abandoned you almost your whole living life, why would my mother go for you?” He asked and I sighed.
“You should leave now. Thanks for the information.” I said looking away and he smiled.
“Anytime friend. I did this because I really want to show you how much I care.” He said.
“I can’t still believe these things you said.” I said and he nodded.
“I know you don’t. But throw the question to Issac and hear what he has to say about it. If you don’t trust me, it’s fine. But know that telling you this is, this time is taking a risk.” He said heading to the door.
“What risk?” I asked making his stop.
“Putting my innocent mother in the position of a suspect. Because all these I told you, all fingers are pointing to her. But take it from me,if you suspect her, you are wasting your time. She would never hurt Isaac.” He said.
“What do you mean by that?” I asked walking close to him.
“Your mother took her first son. My brother, for this, she has been nice to all the street children she meets. She knows who you are to Isaac, she would never hurt him.” He said and I nodded.
“Okay. Thank you Enoch.” I said trying to smile.
“I put you first, in front of everyone including my mother. Don’t use it against me, she is innocent.” He said smiling and I nodded smiling.
“Thank you.” I added again.
“You are welcome friend.” He said walking close to me and kissing me on my forehead.
“You will be safe.” He said and I smiled.
“Thank you.” I said and he walked out of the house, waving me goodbye before finally going out of sight.
I walked into the house after shutting the door. I sat on the couch ruminating over all what Enoch told me.
“My mother is such a b**ch.” I said letting the tears roll down freely.
So Mrs Danielle’s son is out there somewhere,if not dead all because of the selfish interest of my mother?
I hate mother so much!
The door opened and I looked up to see Isaac walking in, he shut the door and approached me smiling.
He noticed I was in tears and he rushed to me bowing in front of me.
“Diana, are you okay? Did anyone come in? Are you hurt?” I asked fearfully and I looked at him.
“Isaac you lied to me.” I said and he furrowed his brows.
“What? I wouldn’t do that.” He said and I rose my head.
“You wouldn’t? Seriously?” I asked standing up.
“Diana who was here? What’s going on?” He asked fearfully.
“I will ask one last time, and don’t you dare lie to me.”
“Do you know what happened between my mother and Mrs Danielle?” I asked and his contenance changed.
He sighed and wanted to reach for my hand.
“Don’t you dare Isaac. Isaac I trusted you with my whole life, and now you keep such an huge secret from me?” I asked as more tears rolled down my eyes.
“I was asked not to, and I promised not to.” He said sadly.
“Why? I don’t deserve to know my mother is a b**ch? So I wouldn’t feel bad? Is that it?!” I yelled and he shut his eyes.
“Isaac I was dying! I need to know everything! What if I didn’t survive? I would die knowing you were keeping secrets?” I asked and tears rolled down his eyes.
“I am sorry. I was trying not to destroy the reunion of your mother and you. Telling you this will make you hate her more, that’s why Danielle said I shouldn’t say.” He explained and I shook my head moving around.
“I hate her! Because of her Mrs Danielle’s child is not with her right now! Maybe he is one of your kind, or is even dead! I will never forgive her for what she did to that woman.” I said walking to my room.
“Diana.” He called and I stopped with my back turned against him.
“How did you know this?” He asked and I looked at him through my side.
“I got to know this from someone who finally gained my trust.” I said reaching for the door.
“Diana I am sorry.” He said.
“Yes you are. I know you are, but right now I need some time alone.” I said slamming the door in anger and rage.
