TWENTY TWO
ELEONORA
I tossed the shirt i was wearing to the ground because it was beginning to have his scent, it was just one stupid hug. I got into the bathroom seeing my Previous clothes were hanged lucky enough it was dried. I took a long cold shower, wearing my clothes, I got out of the room, my hair was still wet but i didn't care about that right now, I wanted to leave, i got down smelling something cooking which got my tummy rumbling, I ignored that getting to the door, i was stopped by him.
Nora where are you going, he should stop shorten my name like that, Suddenly he was behind me, he touched my hand which was on the door knob, i quickly got my hand off
Where are you going, I folded my arms
I'm leaving, I said which made him frown
I thought we have been through this, he said softly
I don't have clothes, i have nothing here, I said with a shrug
Nora, i got clothes for you, he said coming closer to me
Things you would need so you could stay here with me, Don't go.
That's the reason i have to leave, Don't spend on me, I said annoyed, we heard a knock on the door
You don't need to knock dear, we heard a woman say, Maya got in before a elderly woman, maya frowned when she saw me.
You, why are you here, she asked glaring at me
I was about leaving, I said walking passed him, I left the house , he held my wrist stopping me from going any further
Nora, don't go, He said, I signed not looking at him
Axel who is she, the woman asked confused
She's just one of those shameless whores, that won't let Axel go because of his money, Maya said and i scoffed
Could you shut up, Axel snapped angrily, I took my hand away from his walking away
Eleonora, i ignored his calls almost opened the gate but he was quicker shutting it closed
Don't leave, what do you want from me, Please don't go, he said, i glared at him
Don't beg me, what i want from you is to let me be, have fun with your little girlfriend, i said wanting to open the gate but he didn't give me the chance
She isn't my girlfriend, he said standing an inch away from me
You don't understand how you make me feel, just give me a chance, he was about touching my face
Never, i spat with determination, he stopped mid way looking into my eyes
Axel, someone called, he looked at me with a frown, I looked away from him then walked out, I didn't even know where i was heading but i wasn't going to stay in his house. i was walking out of this estate looking at houses getting to the gate i was stopped by the security men
Good morning miss, we have specific orders not to let you out, One of the men said, you have to be fucking kidding me, what the hell is wrong with Axel. i glared at the men who wasn't paying attention to me . I managed to walk out of the gate, speed walking away, i hoped the men weren't following me even if they were calling out to me. I figured i had one place i could go, i hope he welcomes me. I literally had to walk the whole way to Kyler's house, I only came her once which was the day he got it when i was at my first year in college when my life was just Normal. I got to the pouch about knocking it opened revealing Alicia, I frowned now I'm regretting why i came here.
Eleonora, What a surprise, come in, she said moving aside so i could come in, i hesitated but got in when i saw my brother he was looking really great, his house had changed a lot, why was Alicia here, were they married already.
Eleonora, what brings you here, he asked and i shook my head
Nothing, I just came to see you and apologize for that day we argued, i lied looking at him, Now Alicia was here, i didn't feel like staying here
Prepare to be homeless, My inner voice said, my brother came to me giving me a hug which i reciprocated, it felt good been wrapped like this, it made me feel wanted.
I'm sorry about what did, he said pulling away
I'm sorry too, she said, i looked at her, it was more of a glare, she felt uncomfortable
You can stay here as much as you want, he said as he crossed his arm around Alicia shoulder
Those she live here too, I asked softly, They looked at each other
Yeah, Most times not permanently but soon, he said and i nodded
I actually only came to apologize, nothing much, I said and he frowned
Really, where do you stay, he asked worried
Nothing to worry yourself about, I said with a smile
Of course I'm worried, mum is too, You aren't picking your calls, he said with a frown
I'll be fine and I'll contact mum soon, Bye, i said leaving their house
I managed to call Vincent using someone's phone and we decided to meet at the same restaurant we met before, I never thought i was known until now, few were looking at me, while others whispered
Good Morning Miss Eleonora, how are things with you, he asked, i shook my head
I don't want to dwell on that right now, I'm sure the Cohen's may still be importing the drugs secretly right, i said and he nodded
Yes, i have been seeing the series of transfers his company has been getting, he said in a serious tone
Is there any chance Axel Martinelli is part of this, I asked softly, his brows furrowed in confusion
I don't think his involved, why would you think that, he asked curiously
He owns 80% of the Cohen's business, I said boldly is obvious Axel is among this Illegal business, although the Cohens hid it well, he claimed he knew everything going on in his partners companies
I'll find out, maybe you could do the same, he said and i nodded
Definitely, i said more on my company, I knew reopening it may either require the signature of that fool Aaron who shut it down or me going through court to get it back. If i go through a court case it could take years, I couldn't risk that. I was going to get it by force but first the Cohen's ere going to go down.
Vincent left and i stayed in the restaurant for a long while, it became torture for me when my stomach rumbled from the smell of the food they make here. , i left before anyone noticed, I saw myself heading back to Axel's house. Right now i was a complete mess and a confused wreck, This minute i want to me here and the other i don't, i was going to find out if he is really part of the Cohen's business, They imported drugs together with there oil to Mexico and few parts of Italy and they are making huge amounts of money from it. I hesitated for a while before ringing the door bell , I frowned when i saw Maya, she glared at me and i did the same
Why are you pestering Axel, she said and i scoffed, she doesn't know Axel is someone i need right now especially when his willing to help me. I Ignored her comment mostly because i don't talk to people who worth my time.
