Pierced Rose - Episode 62

 

Things had begun going well for Reginah...
She couldn't have believed anyone let alone the angels themselves if they had told her four years later things would get better...

For the first time in her life, she didn't have to worry about what to eat, how to pay the bills... She had the luxury to sit down and fulfill her dreams....

Although she wasn't working anymore, she had alot on her plate... Exams, practice and motorcycle training...
She needed a licence and so it was compulsory to go through the training no matter the expertise....

Carlos had moved in with her and Diana after  renting out their mansion...

Diana was happy to have him stay with them, he was like a son she never had.. . They both had a connection only they understood as they seem to be more close than her and Reginah...

He would help her cook, do dishes, drive her to the shopping mall and many more...Diana was like a mother figure to him since his mother had decided to only focus on travelling around the world with her little boyfriend...

Reginah at times felt left out but she was happy that they found happiness in each other's company....

Mary also came to their house frequently and sometimes even slept over....

I know what your question will be, are they dating???? yes her and Carlos are dating and she was probably one of the reasons Carlos didn't wanna go back to Italy.. He had finally found the happiness he had been looking for all his life....

Everyone seemed happy apart from Brad

. Off late all him and his  chocolate girl did was argue about everything....She rarely replied his texts or called back...She was always busy with everything apart from spending time with him.

So today he was going to pick her up from Jayson's house where apparently she recently spends all her time at....

Brad felt simply frightened,scared of what might happen in the future....

. Reginah and Jayson shared a chemistry with bikes whereas him on the other hand wasn't sure what they had in common apart from their love....

Brad walked towards Jayson's apartment and could hear people laughing from the other side of the wall...

The music was playing  and it was certain there was a party which he wasn't invited to...
He tried to keep his insides in check but couldn't...

He slammed the door wide open only to find Jayson and Reginah dancing their time away....Their faces were lit up brighter than a toothpaste commercial...

"So is dancing still a part of your training????I wait for you like a damn fool and here you are dancing..."Brad thundered walking towards them...

"Baby, it's not what you thinking..."Reginah retorted blocking him from Jayson..
"Go to the car now!!!I will be there shortly..."Brad ordered  handing her the car keys...

Reginah hugged Jayson,took her bag pack and walked away...

Brad walked to Jayson almost nose to nose and sent him a stare that could have frozen the spoken...

"Why don't you leave me and my baby alone???Just go back to Italy.. Stop trying to win her back..."Brad snarled..

"Stop being a crying baby and trust your girl..."Jayson replied making Brad more furious...

"How dare you call me a baby???"Brad held him by the collar...
"Dude if you continue acting up, there will be no need to fight for her... She will just come back crawling to me...Nobody wants a boy for a boyfriend..."Jayson dropped his hands from his collar...

Brad pushed him back but he only staggered.
"We will see about that...."

In the car, there was a weird silence among the lovebirds... Brad attempt to keep things light had already begun waning whereas Reginah wanted to confront him for earlier....

But they were patient enough to wait till after dinner to talk their issues out...

"I will go prepare dinner for us,"Reginah mumbled dropping her bag on the couch...
"Baby, wait???" Brad held her hand,"We need to talk..."

"Okay, about what???"
Brad's insecurities were getting hungry by the day and needed to be fed...

"Do you still love me???" Brad whispered....
"What kind of a question is that???"

"A simple question that needs an answer...Do you still love me????"

"Oooh my God,"Reginah gasped dramatically,"I can't believe we are doing this again.."

Reginah dropped his hand from his wrist and begun walking to the kitchen when Brad provoked her,"You walking away means you don't love me..You are guilty to even face me...

Reginah snapped and walked right back to him,"I am sick and tired of your insecurities. Is it hard for you to trust me???"

"Yes, it is hard for me to trust you... Nowadays you spend most of your time with your ex boyfriend. You have no time for me...I wanna know where I stand in your life..."

"Brad I have to be a daughter, sister, student, biker and above all a girlfriend...My priority now is to win the upcoming race and pass my motorcycle training.. Instead of whining, you should support me like Jayson does..."Reginah lashed out...

"Wow!!!"Brad clapped his hands,"I should support you like Jayson does..Wow!!!You have the guts to say that on my face..Just wow!!!"
Brad held his breath behind his pursed lips to steel himself from doing the worst...

" We have to practice, he helps me with my training practicals and exams...We just talk about motorbikes nothing more nothing less.. He is aware that I love you..." Reginah whispered cupping his face,"It's not what you think..."

"You are lying....Today I found you guys dancing and exes don't just forget each other...."

Reginah just shook her head shockingly... She couldn't believe how immature Brad was acting...

"I will be done with school in a week's time..All I wanna know is will you be my side???I have a future to plan. Are you in or out???"

"All I know is we need a break...I am done with explaining myself every now and then.."Reginah lashed out ,reaching out for her bagpack but Brad took it...

"Now we need a break....I knew this is what you wanted to be with your lover because you are  rich now....You have money now right...Reginah you have really changed since your father came back...It's like I don't know you...Now that you have money, I don't matter...You want to be your ex."He raged throwing the bag at her..

"Amazing....Okay take him and go with him to Italy because in Nairobi I won't let you date in peace.."

"I would rather go back home, I can't deal with this...You are so childish..."Reginah said sadly..

"So you are leaving????Go to your lover..."

Reginah rolled her eyes at him and walked out of the apartment...

"And I am not a baby..." She heard Brad say....

Brad felt like he was choking up...He didn't want her to leave, he only wanted to fed his insecurities but it seemed he had crossed the limits...

He wanted to go after her but it was like his feet were stuck in the floor....
