Sugar baby by Mariam León (feel good fiction books .TXT) 📕

Chapter 15

Just when I'm getting my things, the mobile rings indicating that I have a menage, I look at the number and I know it's Samuel

<< something important came up go home alone, the driver is waiting>>

I reread the message once and I curse at the lack of affection in the message, I put the phone once more in my bag and sigh at the end this was a kind of convention so I couldn't claim anything from him.

The driver takes me to his building and I smile at the doorman before going straight to his appearance. The place is dark except for the light that enters through the huge window, I get rid of my backpack and take a shower before seeing what we have in the fridge.

I made myself some pasta and honestly this felt weird.

I felt alone sitting in his huge kitchen while he was around without even calling me, after taking a shower and watching some television the clock told me that it was twelve o'clock at night

Where was Samuel?

I picked up the phone and bit my lip as I decided whether or not to call him, I dialed twice by hanging up on the second before letting him ring.

I stand up and he strokes my hair while I wait for him to answer, after the fifth ring he answered

"what do you need?

His voice was cold and flat, I could hear music in the background accompanied by laughter and the sound of glasses

"Where are you?

I asked sitting on the edge of the sofa

“At a dinner with a friend” she answers without further ado “you should go to sleep, it's late and I'm not coming back yet

My heart aches when I hear the girl on the other end of the line ask him to hang up.

“I have to go Vannesa, see you in the morning

I open my eyes wide

“Samuel, are you really coming to sleep?

He is silent for a moment and then answers

"Maybe goodbye Vannesa

I hear the click when he hangs up and I freeze on the arm of the sofa.

What was with a friend? Wasn't waiting for him awake? That maybe he wouldn't come back until tomorrow?

What kind of world have I gotten myself into, he said that it would be his to please him and that he would take care of me but the truth is that he didn't mention that he would be mine alone.

I look at my phone one more time and let the pain wash over me, it's true that I started this relationship because he was the man that has had me spellbound since I got to college but this was fucking different. I felt like a whore, being a sugar baby was shit if I had to put up with him hanging out with other women and that if I couldn't put up with it, I dialed Thalia's number and she answered on the second ring

"My God Vanny it's half past twelve you need at this damn time

“Can I stay at your house?

I ask without further ado and I hear her stand up

“Of course you can, darling, but I don't understand what's going on?

I walk to the room and take some of my things to take to Thal's house.

“Samuel is out with some friends” she tried not to sound hurt “it seems that she is looking for new company so after all I am not good for this

“Ho my life” she whispers “give me ten minutes and I will look for you

"No" I tell her walking out the door "don't worry, I'll go on the bus and then we can talk a little more

"I'll be waiting for you Vanny, Samuel is a fool after all

“No silly, I thought she was a civil servant.

After hanging up the call, I walked down the street to the bus station and waited almost an hour to get on the bus, I walked down the street to Thal's building and called her on the intercom, my watch said two and since I didn't have not a single call I assumed that Samuel hadn't come home or just didn't care that I was gone.

Thal received me in pajamas and with a bottle of juice while he looked at me, I threw the backpack with my things aside and hugged her without being able to contain it anymore

"My girl" says hugging me back "don't be sad Vanny, let's go inside

He closes the door and accompanies me to the kitchen, pours me some juice and I start to tell him everything about the menage until I do nothing but cry, after twenty minutes of pure crying while he hugs me we go to sleep

“Tomorrow is going to be a shitty morning” she smiles at me looking at the clock on her goal at night “we have three hours to sleep Vanny

I lay down next to her and she sighed turning around

“See you tomorrow Thal.

I sigh hoping that fatigue will make me sleep

“Wanny!

Thalia screams next to me while she rubs my shoulder

"Maybe leave me alone I'm not going to go to university" I snort "I'm too tired

“Shit Vanny you don't understand look at your mobile!

She yells and I open my eyes to look at the main screen of my cell phone

Samuel❤️

112 missed calls

30 text messages

"shit

I say standing up and my friend looks at me

“shit no Vanny” spreads his hands wide “this is a lot of shit A lot!

I flop down on the bed once more and place my cell phone next to me.

"Go to class Thal" sigh "Samuel can go to hell, let him stay with whoever was with him last night

"I don't know Vanny, I think you should answer

“no Thal it's over” I shrug my shoulders “can I stay here until I find a new apartment?
