IMADE AND JAMAL

Chapter 5: Drunk in love

Imade.

  Anger is an understatement to describe exactly how I feel right now. I wasn't angry at Jamal or at that stupid wench that kissed him, I was angry at myself.

I was angry at myself for being a fool, I was angry at myself for being easy, for being trusting and for waiting for a man like an idiot and depriving myself of the love that I rightfully deserved. Honestly, I wouldn't blame Jamal completely because at the end of the day, it was my decision and my choice and I chose to wait for him and like a fool, I got dropped in the worst way possible.

  "Hey, are you okay?" A familiar voice asks and I look up to see Joseph looking back at me with a concerned expression.

"Uh... Yeah, sure. I'm fine. Do you need something?" I ask.

  "You don't look fine though. Your eyes are a little swollen and reddish and your face looks slightly swollen as well. Did something happen?" He persists.

"It's nothing too serious Joseph, just another bad day." I reply him tiredly, hoping he'd realise that I wasn't in the mood to talk. 

  "Does it have anything to do with what I told you earlier? And please don't lie to me cause it was after I told you that you suddenly left and now since you got back, you've been in a sour mood. Should I have kept my mouth shut? I'm guessing I should have but believe me I honestly had no bad intentions and I'm sorry if it caused you any trouble." He blurts nonstop and I mentally rolled my eyes at how talkative he was being.

  "I should actually be thanking you for telling me. It was exactly what I needed to wake up from a long dream." I reply him and I meant every word I said. If it wasn't for him, I would have continued fooling myself and hiding behind the false hope that Jamal probably had amnesia and that one day he'd eventually remember me. What a joke! I mentally scoff at my foolishness.

"Well then, I guess I'm not to blame. If you need anything, anything at all, you can always call on me. I'll be happy to help you." He says assuringly and I offer him the most genuine smile my face and my mood could muster.

  "Thanks a lot Joseph." I say to him and watched him walk away before placing my head on my table.

I really blame you anyways. I blame the corrupt nature of this country that allows good for nothings like you to get undeserved opportunities. I'm pretty sure you're one hundred percent certain about getting hired and that is why you're not even afraid to sleep at work when you only started to work here yesterday."
