CIARA'S POV.
“common, get spilling, I want it all.. All the tea.” flora yelled, then squirmed from excitement as she took her seat right beside me.
“flora…”. I teased as we both turned to look in alfreds direction, he was doing nothing, and stared at us both while he played by himself in his stroller.
“there was nothing… just a little bit of fun, all the previous times, a great night that's all.” I answered easily, although I knew I merely spoke as the tip of the iceberg kinda thing.
“nothing? Seriously?. That was nothing?.” flora asked again.
“Keep it down, he'll hear.” I pleaded with her while a wider smirk formed on her face.
“common, you've got an enormous house like this with all this gigantic furniture, hard walls and you expect him to hear a single thing I say from down here?.” flora asked casually yet again, it was just as if those words passed and by her, she was not really intentional about it and neither was she bothered.
“I'm sorry, did you not just hear me?” i asked, faking an anger but she caught on real quick and erupted into an even louder laughter.
“stop being a maniac, just go on talk, than stalking more , do you know how hard it was for me to keep my lips sealed all fucking night? I was waiting for your call, or your response to my text but I got nothing and guess what when you finally called and I heard from Evans that you both were headed somewhere, I knew instantly, just instantly that something had gone wrong.so start talking now… okay?.” she asked and I nodded feeling somewhat better.
“I don't know flora, I really don't know where to begin there's just a while lot that is happening and maybe, I should get myself wrapped up to free you from my talks.” I admitted to her, I didn't want to seem like a flaunt or talk too much but above all.
I needed someone to call but I was keen to avoid it. Very terrible route down in the end.
“please.. Calm down, talk to me, you should not be scared to talk about your happiness to anyone.. Anyone at all so why on earth are you getting yourself winded up in this way?.” flora asked yet again.
The smile eased up on my lipid and I pulled closer to her.
“Come with me, I have to show you something.” I finally spoke up as she walked on behind me when we headed up to my too..
I pushed open the door and her eyes popped out. As she stared down at the boxes and bags down on the floor all scattered in haste.
“Evans got you all these?.” she asked, sounding more astonished than I had thought she would be.
“yes… he did and..” the words got stuck in my throat midway as I stared around a little bit insecure, it never dawned in me as such until the very moment, what were the chances the fucking chances that he probably had anything rounded beneath his sleeves and cameras stuck up on around.
“and?.” flora asked with a frown, crossed her arms over her chest.
“I'm sorry, I should not have brought you down here, maybe I am taking this too far I'm not so sure, because we drew up a conclusion and I could not let him know I was bothered, this looks way too much.” I finally spoke, although I whispered it out I felt really relieved, knowing I had such a heavy burn from my chest.
“Did you both have an argument over night? Or away from the house? Common talk to me like I said I am here for you.” flora urged me on to speak, but I held on to my silence, said nothing at all.
“We didn't fight, but yes he got me a car yesterday, last night when I went out he got me a Honda jeep… the latest one.”
“a fucking crv.” flora added in at the end of the words.
“I saw the car out earlier when I came for Alfred this morning, and I was like damn… he got another one, by seeing it meant for you my baby girl it makes me even better, you have a brand new fucking car, an expensive one at that… I'm so happy for you my love.” flora chirped happily like some sort of happy bird caught up in the mother's nest
“you don't look so happy?. What is wrong.. You can talk to me, you know, you know that right?.” flora asked slowly as she pulled closer to me.
“I am fine, yes I am happy being with my man him spoiling me with gifts and the likes but I feel really bad about it, he got me so many things, a car, I own a fucking building now flora I've got a chain customised to my name, I've got a leather gucci choker necklace, chokers, a diamond earrings a necklace and even earrings to match.
Teddy bears, flowers, courses, bags.I've got a whole lot of things I do not need and to me it seems too much.” I added in, I was worried sick that this night would sound ungrateful but for me, it's way too much, a whole bunch of unnecessary things, I don't even wear chokers and he got new ones for me.. The earrings, they were way too much flora. I can't keep up with their lifestyle and I know it's only going to get worse.” I argued on.
My words sounded strange to her, I could tell given the baffled look on her face, she certainly had not expected that I was to say anything as such but I always had my days of cutting through things..
“It's good. Bringing you all these shows how much he cares about you.”
“I know flora, I know that much and he knows I already know how much he loved me, but why is he going over the extreme length?.” I asked again, not getting to understand why it was that everyone found it as a very humble and loving thing to do,
Going around having money thrown into their faces.
“I'm very sorry… I don't know what to say this time, he is your man and you should relax, if he's giving you gifts it's intentional, and you are being this way would only make him feel like he's not wanted or not doing enough.
, you just him say or lead him to stop and he would stop, he would not want it to seem kike he's forcing you into accepting his stuffs.” flora explained, and yes she did make sense but I bet that she was merely giving me the logical explanation and that was the piece of information she had been dying to withhold.”
“What do you opinion on the matter? Or is this really what you want to say?.” I asked her, she drew in a long breath and relaxed as I tapped against her shoulder slowly.
“be honest with me , do you think it's way too much and I'm right if you think I'm merely an integrate?.” I asked, drawing all my to her.
“It depends, but if I judge on your personality, then it's only fair to say what comes to my mind. I would not take sides with you or your fiance but I'll be quick and I'll ask you, Ciara, do you want the truth?.” doors asked while I braced myself up for the truth.
“go on… what is wrong?. Tell me the truth, no matter how it sounds, be plain with it.”
