The Love From Vengeance

5 STUCK IN NEGATIVITY

LUKE’S POV

I sat on the floor with a dolesome countenance and tons of cigarettes on the floor, and the room was partly covered with smoke. My phone had been ringing; different people were calling me, but I decided to ignore each and every one of them.

My phone was far from me, so I couldn’t actually tell the people who were calling, but one thing was for sure: my grandfather was included in that list of callers. I didn’t know how I was going to reply to him. What was I going to tell him concerning this Ariel situation?

It had been an hour, and I was just sitting here like a helpless man, like someone who was completely broken and could never be fixed back.

I heard a knock on my door, but I didn’t say anything. I was not in the mood to talk to anyone. But I sighed in annoyance the moment the knocks got louder. “Who’s there?” I groaned.

The person replied, “It’s Bridget, sir.‘

“What is it now?” I queried in tiredness.

“You have a visitor,” she let me know.

“Tell that person to go back; I don’t want to speak with anyone right now.”

“Uhmm, sir, I told him that you weren’t in the mood to talk to anyone, but he said he must speak with you.”

“What does he want to talk about?” I leisurely got up from the ground, tuckered, and then I went to open the door.

I looked at Bridget, scanning her from up to down, and she did the same.

“What?” I asked her immediately.

“It’s nothing,” she said, shaking her head and starting to walk away.

“I never said you could leave!” I vocalized, and she paused immediately, I bowed to her, looked her in the eyes, and walked away. I could tell she was frightened at that very moment.
