And here I was, having dinner with these two, sitting across from them in Olive garden. Munching on bread sticks and sipping water.
'Why did I ask to go to dinner again?'
'Oh yeah, to steal Olivia's best friend from right under her nose.'
Felix wouldn't shut up about his art projects and wanting to go to Paris some day, and Olivia kept glancing at me.
'Intimidated much.'
'Oh Felix, shut up!'
"Maybe I could introduce you to a friend, he owns an art exhibit, and is always scouting for new talent. I am sure that you two will hit it off, maybe even learn a thing or two from each other.''
'Why did I just do that?'
'I only wanted you to shut up, but instead this might get you to talk more.'
"You would really do that for me?" Felix flushed, smiled widely, then grabbed my hands from across the table and held onto them.
"Why not?" I returned his smile, slightly pulling my hands so he would let them go.
'W
The few days leading up to the Christmas party, I gave Felix the time of his life.I took him to so many new places, introduced him to my people. Even got him a passport so that we can fly to Paris for the New Year.I also updated his style and his bank account.I didn't care that Olivia tagged along. I wanted her to watch as I take everything from her, even though it's not that much. I swear, if I knew anything about her family, I would take them under my wing as well.She was now in the back seat, no pun intended.'Soon you will be forgotten.'"Come on, tell me where we are off to today. You know I get gassy when nervous.'''Which I learnt the hard way and from standing behind Felix.'''You and I are just going to celebrate your success of having your first piece displaced. Nothing too big.''"Nothing too big? Hello, you always said 'go big or die'. You made all my dreams come through. You are like a fairy godmot
Felix came to my house to get ready, but I knew better. Even though the two of us were becoming fast friends, I knew that he came to snoop and relay everything back to that sneaking Olivia. But I'll let him. Olivia needs to see and understand that she has nothing on me, and Russell is mine. He was made for me, and I will make sure that I get him. "There is no way." Felix spawn around, admiring the place. His eyes sparkled as he admired from my chandelier, to the marble floors and even the paintings on the wall. "You either have a sugar daddy, or you're a trust fund baby." He pointed an accusing finger at my face. I laughed, but said nothing. 'I bet that was Olivia's thoery of me, she was trying so hard to figure me out. I know it must drive her nuts to not know what I am about.' "Well, lets get ready then.'' I pointed to one of my many spear rooms Felix could use to change. "What is going on between you and Russel
A problem, that's what you are, Olivia. A thorn in our fu*king side. Even Felix was getting annoyed with you. Russell was more than over you and I am pissed. I swear you are a dark cloud. You know just how to make a good day bad. You ruined our wonderful day, more like days. You showed up high as a kite at Russell's place when we were having a lovely movie night. You sat right in the middle of us, throw up and fell asleep in it. Then you had the nerve to just show up at the park and step all over our picnic. Ate our food, and complained saying that you didn't like the wine, simply because you have no taste in good things. You even created a scene at my cousin's restaurant, saying I'm a man stealer. Broke some really expensive chin
Not even a day after, and news broke about the dead body of a young woman in the alley behind an appliance store. I turned my radio down as the news reporter rant on about how disgusting the person who did it was, how they needed to be found and dealt with. 'If only they knew the type of person you were, Olivia. A worthless druggy who went around sleeping with men for money and drugs.' I did what I did for a reason; I did it to be with the one I loved, so that we can be together with no interruptions. As I drove around the corner, I spotted Felix sitting on the side of the road, with his head between his legs and an empty bottle by his side. 'Damn this kid, I completely forgot about him and how the death of this bi*ch would affect him.' 'Of course, I was the first person he would run to.' I wind the window down to get a better look at the sad little thing that was sobbing outside of my gate. "Hey there, Fe, what's
Two days, two whole days. That's how long I haven't seen you for. I know you can't be this divested about Olivia's death. She is a thing of the past. You are to make way for our future, which was why you left her. So where are you now? What have you been up to these past two days? A stop by your house, you aren't there. You called in sick. Even your phone is off. So where are you? At your friends? I don't even know who to call. Did you die? No, I can't allow my thoughts to go there. I doubt you would commit suicide over a girl like that. Then where have you gone? As I waited outside your place of residence, watching the old lady allowing her rat looking dog to shit on your step. I see a black SUV pulling up, when it drove off, there you were. With a backpack over your shoulders and a brown paper bag in hand. You looked around, as if you could feel my eyes on you, the
What do you even wear to your enemy's funeral? I mean, she is a dead bitch now. Does it even matter? I had no respect for her in life, so why should I when she is dead?I gave a heavy sigh, then pulled out an old ensemble, which was just a plain black dress with long sleeves, an oversized hat, and black heels.And even though I was dressing down, I still looked better than Olivia on even her best day."Well then, this is tragic.'' I said to my reflection, then watched the cigarette burn down to my fingers and felt a red mark.''Even in death, this bitch still finds a way to take you from me. Still find a way to weasel yourself in my life."This truly is tragic, I squeezed eye drops in my eyes so that when I get to the burial ground, fake tears will flow.I didn't want to attend Olivia's funeral, but Felix made me and then there was you. Sounding pitiful on a 1 am call. I know that you are hiding something, I won't stop until I find out what
I guess it is safe to say that now that Olivia was finally buried and put to rest; I am now Felix's best friend. I can't seem to shake the kid. He was over at my house more, visiting me at work and telling me all about his conquests. Well, more like the men that have conquested him. ''So yeah, I'm going out on this date tonight. The guy isn't so good looking, but he works for Apple, so I guess, you know.'' Felix said, as he applied lip gloss to his already shiny lips. "You mean Janio? With the weird cut hair and glasses?'' "Yeah.'' He laughed. I gave him a look. ''What not my type?'' Far from it, I think I should say something, no matter if it hurts his feelings or not. ''Don't you think you are moving a little too fast? I mean, this is your fourth guys this week. And Janoi? Well, I don't think you should even go there.'' Felix gave a sigh, rolling his eyes. 'I know you don't want to hear it, but I think y
I must admit, even though I haven't seen or heard from Felix in three days. It is quite refreshing. Plus, Russell and I have been spending quality time together. It is safe to say we are inseparable.Everything with Russell and me was great. Dad didn't mind our relationship, spoke business with my man and even call him son occasionally.Despite the talks around the office, Daddy Walker would threaten to get rid of anyone that bad mouths his little girl or her man.When will people understand that this is my world and they were just living in it?But not for long, because with the love I have for you, the place will implode and they will need to find somewhere else.For now, we will enjoy each other's company, like just yesterday. We went on a road trip just to go fishing. Two days before that; we flew to France for the film festival. We had sex on the private jet, in the elevator and the hotel's pool.And now, you are at my place, watc
