i was thinking how Mary will feel about the little drama we just displayed till i drop Treasure off in her apartment

Mary’s Pov
Sometimes the things we thought is the right thing to do makes us look like a fool and irresponsible

That was how i saw myself when i accept to hangout with Esther that evening
i didn’t have any where to go so i was laying on my bed that evening chatting with Mike my Ex nw friend, when Esther call came into my small phone, i wonder why she is calling after the way she left the previous day
i didn’t picked up, it rang and end by itself, 30minute later a message appear “I’M SORRY MARY FOR LEAVING LIKE THAT YESTERDAY, PLS CAN YOU MEET ME AT TINAPA?”
i drop the phone after i read the message lay back for some minutes before i lazily stood up to go shower before going to were she(esther) is
i type a message back to her before i entered the bathroom “OK I’M COMING, HOPE YOUR BROTHER ISN’T THERE?”

Went i came in from the bathroom to the room she drop a message “NOPES HE ISN’T HERE”

i rob my lotion went to my closet to select what to wear, i settled with a tight faded jeans trouser and s pink flay top and a pink wallet and sandals to match, i check myself and smiled satisfied

When i entered where Esther direct me i saw Esther and her brother with a lady although the lady was backing my direction,
i all of a sudden became uncomfortable with how i dress, i summoned courage and walked up to them

Me: hey
i said smiling in all i could

Esther: babe have a seat
She draw a seat for me to sitting on

Lady: hey girl

Me: hi
i tried to avoid Jerry’s stared he aske me

Jerry: Mary! How are you doing?

Me: i’m fine
i simply reply him and glance at him

Esther: i’m sorry for the way i left yesterday

Me: it’s okay Esty, i understand okay
i smiled at Esther but what i heard from the lady i later found out is Treasure broke my heart that i instantly became dumb

Treasure:: baby can we checked some where we can have privacy?
Jerry replied her in a calm way which made me glance at him

Jerry:please Treasure not now

Treasure: Jerry I’m not comfortable here and i demand we leave

Esther: what’s wrong with you Tee?
i sat there watching the drama, the guy that just confess that he loves me is with someone else just in a period 2days we couldn’t try one more time
i kept staring at him with teary eye unfortunately he didn’t glance at my direction which confirm that it true

Treasure: Esther please stay out of this!
She warned Esther

Esther: Mary let leave here, i don’t know why mum want my brother to marry that rude and arrogant b*tch
Esther took my hands and we left to another place still in the resort, all Esther was saying i either reply with “hmmmm” or i nod, she tried to explained to me that her mother choose Treasure for her brother, i didn’t want to know all i want was to go home and clear my head which didn’t take long before we left i took a taxi home while Esther did same
