Chapter 62 ANN PAST(14): GOODBYE
The alarm clock rang from a distance, it sounded so loud that Ann found it hard to sleep so she reached over to it on the nightstand and slammed the snooze. She groaned and pulled the blanket up to cover her face immediately the harsh sunlight reflected towards her on the bed.
“Wake up Ann”. Silver threw a pillow at her after she had parted the curtains open then pulled the blanket out from her body.
Ann squinted her eyes as sat up with her back settled on the soft pillow behind her then rubbed her eyes till she had regained her sight due to the sunlight before she looked by the side and saw Silver, dragging out her luggage’s from her wardrobe. She was surprised because she had thought that Silver was joking last night when she said she was going to leave this place with her and on seeing this she realized Silver was indeed serious.
“We have no time to waste Ann”. Silver flicked her hair behind her back then walked to the table where she had dropped a tray that had a cup of hot tea and waffle on top then took it to the bed and dropped it on Ann’s lap.
“Here, have this and go freshen up, we are leaving this morning”. She said then walked to her wardrobe and pulled out her clothes then arranged it in her bag. “First we go to the station to pay Lorenzo one last visit and then…”. She closed the bag and zipped it. “I’ll find a new place to stay”.
“You don’t have to do this Silver”. Ann said as she steered the spoon around the cup. Her gaze was focused on the cup as she steered.
“Well maybe if you weren’t so dumb and told me all what have being going on between you and Lorenzo maybe all this bullshit wouldn’t have happened”. Silver said angrily as she was pissed that Ann kept on repeating the same statement that she hated. She sighed when Ann didn’t respond while she continued to steer the spoon in the cup.
Ann knew that the only way to calm Silver down was not to talk back at her because that’s when she gets angry and screamed aloud just to release her anger on her.
Silver leaned closer and sat on the bed then reached forward and stroked Ann cheek gently,”You know I just wish we could go back in time and change all the bad things that have happened to you in the past ”. She said, calm and gentle. “But that’s impossible and I can’t help it whenever you say such a thing like that, it makes me feel that you don’t need me”. She said honestly and Ann felt bad about it.
Ann looked up to face her then dropped the tray on the bed and pulled her in for a tight hug,”I’m sorry”. She whispered into Silver ear. “I just feel bad that all this is happening because of me”.
“No, it’s not Ann”. Silver said and disengaged from the hug. “And besides, I was never gonna stay here forever in my mom’s house”. She said and Ann chuckled as it sounded funny to her. “Now drink your tea so you can have your drug this morning”. She then stood up from the bed and entered the bathroom.
Ann drank the tea and ate the waffles before Silver was done in the bathroom.
Silver came out of the bathroom and smiled at her when she noticed Ann was done with the food. She walked to her wardrobe and brought out her purse then dipped her hand inside to bring out the drug. She collected a glass cup of water from the table then gave it to Ann with the drug in her hand.
“Now drink your medicine”. Silver ordered as she watched Ann take a sip from the water then swallowed the drug. “Perfect”. She said with a grin.
Ann placed her hand on her head as she began to feel dizzy. “I don’t feel good Silver”. She said.
“Just freshen up and you will feel better within a sec”. Silver assured her then assisted Ann into the bathroom.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Ann took off her clothes then turned on the shower. She refreshed herself before she turned it off and tried her body with a towel. Silver was right, She did really feel better after the cold shower. She wrapped the towel around her body and came out of the bathroom. Silver was fully prepared in a red dress and a red shoe.
“Wear this”. Silver said and threw a blue dress at Ann then slid a black shoe towards her direction. “We don’t have any time to waste please”. She said and fell back on the bed as she waited for Ann to dress up.
“I’m ready now”. Ann said after she had worn the dress and put on the shoes.
“Alright let’s go”. Silver stood up then rolled her luggage’s out of the room while Ann followed her from behind. “Mom goodbye, I might come back for the reunion this year”. She said immediately they got down from the stairs.
“Silver”. Her mom called aloud from the room, trying to stop them from leaving.
“Enjoy your life mom”. Silver said as they both walked out of the house then slammed the door shut. She called a uber driver when they got to the road and they zoomed off to the police headquarters at once.
