Chapter 37: Pills and portion
I got back home and headed straight to my room, I turned on the phone and recovered my details from the cloud, when I was done, I logged Into my social media and messages began to come in, while they were coming in, I saw I had 43 messages from Jones.
"Baby I'm so sorry,"
"Angie it is not what you think, I don't love her the way I love you,"
"Baby it's not what you think,"
"I was high and I didn't know when I started doing that,"
"You mean more than she means to me,"
"Angie please pick up my calls,"
"Angie it's all your fault, you promised to come over but you didn't so I became lonely and I needed to be with someone,"

I couldn't continue reading his messages so I didn't reply to his text messages.
I was so heartbroken that I couldn't even cry, at some point, I began to wonder why I wasn't even crying but the pains I felt in my chest weren't bearable, I was feeling pains all over. I went down to the living room and found painkillers on top of the table, I took two pills and headed back to my room.
Some minutes after I took the pills, the pain came down a little, it worked like magic, of course, I was still heartbroken but I wasn't feeling pain anymore. I went back downstairs and took the bottle of pills then I headed back to my room, I read the contents of the pills and dropped them inside my drawer, then I laid down on my bed and slept off.
I opened my eyes shortly after and found myself in Jones's room where I saw him having sex with the same girl. While he was having sex with her, he turned and looked at me with a smile on his face, and then I opened my eyes and saw it was a dream.
I couldn't stop thinking about how Jones cheated on me, now I'm dreaming of it.
After an hour, Mom walked into my room and saw me lying on my bed, she walked close to me and sat down on my bed,
"Angie, are you okay? You've been quiet ever since today," Mom said,
"Yes Mom, I'm just tired,"
"Tired? but why, are you having a fever?" Mom asked and placed her hand on my forehead,
"I'm fine Mom, I'm just over-relaxed,"
"Okay," she said and stood to leave but then my phone rang. I picked up the phone and looked at it, it was Jones so I ignored the call.
"Okay did Jones break your heart?" Mom asked
"Break my heart? No one broke my heart Mom I just don't want to talk to him,"
"Why?"
"Nothing, I just need to be left alone, I'm just not in a good mood,"
"Okay darling, but I and your father are always here if you need us okay?" Mom said,
"I know, thanks Mom,"
"You're welcome darling," Mom said and headed out of my room.
Immediately after she left, Jones called me again so I picked up the call and yelled at him,
"Leave me alone Jones, stop calling my fucking phone. Go back to that bitch you were fucking and tell her she's all that you have just like you told me," I yelled with my eyes filled with tears, then I hung up the call and dropped the phone as tears massively rolled out of my eyes.
Meanwhile,
Mom was standing behind my door, she heard everything I said to Jones, she wanted to come in but she couldn't. Mom had never heard me use foul language but now she did, she could tell Jones broke my heart and I was really upset.
One thing about this heartbreak of a thing is that it's so painful, you begin to overthink, and sometimes you cry and all that. I was so heartbroken that I slept four times that day and had similar dreams. I lost my appetite, I couldn't think and I felt there was this last piece of me that was missing. I was hungry but I couldn't eat, I was sleepy but I couldn't sleep, it was like a nightmare. Worse of all, I lost my phone, lost my bag, some of my clothes and my money. I felt stupid losing all these things because of someone who cheated on me.
One of the craziest parts of this whole situation is that I lost my phone, my money and some of my clothes but it wasn't as painful as it was for me when I saw Jones having sex with that girl. I began to overthink and I started feeling pains all over my head, I stood and headed to my drawer then I got the painkillers and took some more. The pain reduced a little but I was still overthinking. It was getting late but I couldn't sleep so I got some money from my drawer and went out to get sleeping pills. I hid it so Mom won't find out. I went back to my room and took the sleeping pills and painkillers together, then I fell asleep without hiding the drugs.
Some hours after I slept off, Mom walked into my room to check up on me, she saw I was sleeping so she headed to the table lamp to turn it off then she found the pills bottle on my bed. Mom picked it up and saw it was painkillers and sleeping pills. She sat on my bed worried that I've started taking drugs, she tried to wake me but I was deeply asleep then she headed out of the room with the pills.
She got to Dad's room and told him that she found pills in my room but Dad didn't believe it until Mom showed him the pills she got from my room, Dad assumed it was just painkillers and sleeping pills, he said Maybe I had a headache and I took the sleeping pills so I could sleep early, Mom doubted Dad's option and tried to convince him that I'm becoming a drug addict but in the end, Dad ended up convincing Mom that it was just a misunderstanding.
