When The Tide Of The Heart Changes

Episode 7

CHAOS

The shattering sound of a breaking glass is heard hard and loud as something breakable and made of glass shatters in the background.
Johnny’s heart thumped and skipped as he heard the destructive havoc onyinye was causing all over the house, breaking things, shouting at the top of her voice shrieking like a whipped dog.

Johnny sat on a lone chair in the bar, carrying his face in his palms with a bold bottle of whisky in front of him. “must she do this all the time, must she flare up whenever she sees another woman around me? Johnny lamented as he was taken aback to an incident that happened a month ago at the abuja shopping mall, they went to shop and onyinye was busy picking things and he was checking out the wine section when he bumped into an old friend, they greeted warmly and was still in the middle of exchamging numbers when onyinye jumped in, before anyone could say “I” the poor girl’s phone was already tiny bits as onyinye sent it to hades with a thunderous shattering sound, slapped the living daylight out her eyes, dropped the items she picked and walked out of the mall shouting at the peak of her voice at no one in particular leaving johnny bewildered.

Jessy was clutched just a few steps from him with a little amount of blood tickling down her face. her face was swollen and blank now, lost those sparkling beauty and life it use to beam with.

Johnny’s heart sank and he watched jessy. he could av sent onyinye sprawling on the floor with slap but jessy have stopped him… the way it starts is always like a flash.

“What dah f–k is going on here”[b] Onyinye shouted, as she walked in looking at johnny and jessy dragging one pillow to hit each other with.[b] “John i said what is going on here?” her voiced thundered again as he was moving closer dropping her golden gucci designed bag on the floor.

Johnny and jessy just mopped at her, with their hands still subconsciously grabbing the white pillow at the two opposing ends.

“So Johnny just because i left barely 5hrs ago you already brought some w—e into this house?” she ranted.

“Excuss me i am not a ………………..” tawwaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiii jessy was interrupted as a very angry thunderous slap sent her sprawling on the flour clutching her face with her palms in pains.

“Onyinye have u gone mad?” Johnny barked in surprise as he pulled her to himself which she reacted by sending a hot slap from sambisa squarely across his face with a cracking sound “So u thought i had gone back to my house” she barked back.

Before he could recover from wave of shock the slap sent through him, onyinye was already hurling tons of breakable things at him and Jessy, it was total CHAOS. a glass flower vase she threw hit the wall and shattered sending tiny debris flying everywhere, one of them hit jenny just beside her eye brow with a piercing certainty.

blood tickled as johnny rushed to her side, onyinye changed her tactics as she left the room breaking anything her hands touches as she cursed and swore..

Onyinye left minutes later but the damage she left behind would take days to fix.

Johnny boiled some hot water and cleaned Jessy’s wound with it, gave her some medicine.

he could care and concern in her eyes hidden deep within the pain that surged through her.

Johnny clasped her in his arms and she surrendered herself fully into the fleshy wall.

his arms sweetly wrapped around her back caressing them.

Johnny knew in his mind that He needed peace.
