"I love you a whole lot and I am certain you are aware of this and also the fact that I would do anything for you. But for the first ti I will have to disobey you," Alia replied. She strolled to the centre table with the first aid kit in her hands.
"They said the truth is bitter and today I must tell her the truth," Alia said.
Knowing very well that Amos must be signalling her not to talk, she chooses not to look at his face.
She diverted her attention to the fuming Joanna after dropping the first aid kit on the table.
"In the past, Amos was always around you. Auntie told that he would stay with you in the cafe from the resumption of work to closing and follows you around like a handbag…,"
"I can tolerate your insults but don't you ever insult him…,"
"Everyone in the universe might insult and belittle him including you but I am the only person on Earth who would never do that so, let talk," Alia spoke angrily.
"Alia…,"
"Please let talk, Amos. You can scold however you want later, I can tolerate that but right now I must tell her a piece of my mind," Alia shunned Amos.
He was stunned to witness this. If only he knew that things would get to this extent he wouldn't have let her into the house.
"Like I was saying. In the past, he was around you every single ti of the day but did you ever pay him attention? Did you ever accord importance to him or his feelings?" Alia challenged fiercely.
Joanna carried the clutches from the table and with it helped stood up from the couch.
"That is between and him, you have no right to ddle in it…,"
"Who says I don't have the right huh?" Alia argued not willing to yield to Joanna.
"Aren't you acting so obsessive and clinging to him like glue because he is attracted to and has no ti for you now?" Alia asked.
"Alia, stop it right there…,"
"You are suddenly treating him like the apple of your eye because you are scared that he will no longer be at your beck and call, am I not right?" Alia demanded.
"Tell yourself the truth. Do you even love him or you are just using him…,"
"Shut the hell up or else I will be forced to rip that mouth off," Joanna yelled angrily.
"Tsk tsk tsk… you can't even stand by yourself and you want to rip off my mouth?" Alia sneered.
"Don't you think you are overestimating yourself…,"
"That is enough Alia," Amos' cold voice caused Alia to shiver. She kept quiet in an instant.
"I can see that you are not in your right mind so I suggest you leave," Amos reached out his hand and grabbed Alia.
"You want to throw out because of her?" Alia asked with a bewildered expression. She didn't have the chance to get over the shock before Amos pulled her out of his apartnt.
Joanna was too broken by Alia's words to care about what they were doing outside even when Amos didn't return imdiately.
He returned five minutes later but couldn't find Joanna in the sitting room where he left her.
Amos went to the bedroom door. He held the door's knob and tried to pull it open but to his dismay, the door was locked.
"Joan, open up," Amos knocked on the door and waited to hear footsteps but no movents could be heard inside the bedroom two minutes after knocking on the door.
"Joan, you didn't eat anything today. You need to eat to regain your energy. And you are aware that you can't have your drugs without eating right?" Amos asked. He banged on the door for the fifth ti but no movents could still be felt inside.
"It's ok if you don't have an appetite but you are know that your injuries will get infected if we don't get them treated imdiately right?" Amos quizzed.
He tried to use all the thods he knew to get her to open up the door for him but none of the thods worked.
"I can treat my wound just fine so you don't have to worry about that?" She replied.
Her voice he wanted to hear finally ca on but Amos could sense changes in her voice.
Joanna's voice sounded jerky and muffled like she has been crying in there.
Listening to her sniff confird his doubts.
"Joan, are you crying?" Amos asked worriedly. "Is it perhaps because of what Alia said?".
Inside the bedroom, a figure laying on the bed covered with bedsheets from head to toe could be seen moving slightly.
Underneath the bedsheets, her eyes weren't only swollen but her face was reddened from crying so much.
[I never knew that it is this painful to hear the truth]
Joanna sniffed once again. This movent was accompanied by the vibration of her entire body.
"Joan, I was the one who insisted on following you despite knowing that you didn't feel the sa way for . Although she was saying the truth earlier, you are not to be blad for anything ok?" said Amos as he raised his hand and placed it on the door.
"I have never blad you for anything neither have I ever thought in the manner she did…,"
"Just leave alone," Joanna shouted angrily.
"Joan, I know her words might have hurt you so I apologized on her behalf. I am sorry for everything so will you please open the door?" Amos begged as he caressed the door affectionately.
[Is my love for him a sham like she said? Do I really love Kay or is this part of my obsession?]
Joanna covered her mouth and sobbed silently. With no one around to confide in, she had no other thod to relieve her pains other than crying.
Amos stayed in front of the door pleading with her for hours. He didn't care one bit about himself or that it was night already. All that was on his mind was Joanna and her health.
The fear that her condition might worsen if she kept this up didn't make him move a muscle away from the door.
The only ti he left the door was when the doorbell rang.
