Chapter 77: Devastated
While I was in class, I wasn't concentrated at all, the only thing on my mind was Jones and how he broke my heart. I wasn't hearing anything our teacher was saying, I was in class but my mind wasn't.
For the rest of the day, I wasn't paying attention in class, even while the teacher was teaching, she called my name and asked if I was okay but I didn't even hear her until she touched me. I was so devastated that I couldn't even think properly, I wish I could just die and the sad part of this is that I knew this is how heartbreak feels and this is why I never wanted to date anyone but now I did, I'm now a victim of heartbreak and I can't even use words to explain how sad I am right now, it's like a bullet was pulled out of my chest because I could feel the burn. After school, I went to meet Jones. While I was heading to him he looked at me and sighed, and immediately I got to him, he looked away,
"Jones, are you going to leave me after all I've done for you?"
"Angie, I don't love you like I used to, okay, I've told you how I feel about you so why still bothering me?"
"Jones come on, please don't leave, I can't do without you," I said but he walked out on me without saying anything.
Betty once told me, it's possible to break up with someone without leaving the person heartbroken. Sometimes you could get tired of someone and end a relationship with the person but you could still be there for the person Jones doesn't even want to hear me or talk to me, he's acting like he used me or something.
When I got home, I cried, I cried so much that my eyes began to swell. I checked my whats app and Jones posted a status update, his posts alone made me believe that he had always wanted to break up with me because he didn't seem to be worried at all. I texted him on what's app and he replied to me normally, and when I spoke of our relationship he didn't answer me.
I kept crying until I became tired, and then I laid my head on my bed and slept off. A few minutes after I slept off, I opened my eyes and found myself in school, Jones was the only one in class so I walked to him and stood in his front without saying anything,
"Angie, it's over between us," he said, I begged him to come back to me but he didn't say a word.
After about an hour, I found myself kissing Jones, while we were kissing, he pulled back his lips and looked at me,
"I'm sorry Angie, I would never leave you again," he said and we continued to kiss.
After another hour, I found myself having sex with Jones, and I seemed to be enjoying it more.
Shortly after, I opened my eyes and saw it was all a dream. When I saw it was a dream, I began to hope his ending our relationship was also a dream but when I checked my Whats app, it wasn't a dream. I stood up from bed and figured I was wet because I had sex with him in the dream. I walked into the bathroom and cleaned up, and later on, I took a shower. And went down for dinner. Dad and Mom were having dinner when I went down.
"Hi Angie, when we came back you were sleeping so we didn't want to disturb you," Mom said,
"Hi Mom, hi Dad,"
"How are you doing Angie, you look terrible, are you okay?" Dad asked,
"Yes Dad, I was just tired when I got back from school,"
"Aww, come on, seat down and eat," Mom said,
I walked to one of the chairs in the dining and sat down, we were having spaghetti and meatball, normally I could finish two plates of spaghetti because it was my favourite food but this time, I wasn't even hungry. I served myself a little spaghetti and began to eat, I was so quiet at the dining and I ate my food slowly. While I was eating, Dad and Mom noticed I wasn't happy,
"So, what did Jones do this time?" Dad asked,
I looked at Dad curiously,
"Nothing, why did you ask?"
"Because you are always sick especially when Jones hurt you," Mom said,
I sighed,
"It's nothing Mom, I and Jones are good,"
"Are you sure?" Mom asked,
"Of course, I'm just tired. The school was stressful today,"
"Okay, that reminds me, how about Betty, is she still in a coma?" Dad asked,
"Yes, Dad,"
Dad and Mom sighed,
"I can imagine how Mr Rollins would be feeling right now," Mom said,
"He called me the other day to ask why I haven't been calling or checking up on Betty,"
"Really? But why haven't you been checking up on Betty?" Mom asked,
"I have but maybe he didn't know, I'm sure I do check up on Betty"
"Okay, I just pray she recovers soon," said Dad.
After dinner, I went back to my room and lay in bed but it was almost impossible to sleep. I stayed awake until 1:30 AM thinking about Jones, he stopped replying to my text messages, and he kept posting on his status. I cried from 1 AM till 2:38 AM, I needed to get some sleep because I have school tomorrow but it wasn't just easy to get a short eye. While I was in the bed, I remembered that I once had sleeping pills so I checked the drawer for the pills and luckily, it was still there with the painkillers. I took some painkillers and sleeping pills but it didn't work, so I pulled out my phone and played a game on it hoping I could get some sleep.
