Apologize? For what? I already told you I didn't do anything wrong. I just did what I thought was good for this family. So what should I apologize for? I will never allow that foolish girl to be part of our family. Never!!!" Fresho's mum emphasizes the 'never'.
She looks back at Fresho as soon as she finishes talking and her eyes meet mine. She moves closer, not believing her eyes that I am actually in the room. When she is sure I am the one, she becomes angrier.
"What is this girl doing here?" Fresho's mum points at me. Her eyes are darting in anger.
The moment the question comes out of Fresho's mum's mouth, Fresho flinches, shifts to my face, and covers me. My heartbeat increases and I begin to panic.
"What she is doing here is none of your business mum. Leave!!!" Fresho shouts at his mum. I pull his clothes, trying to tell him not to shout at his mother.
"It is my business. She is the one that turned you against me. She is the reason you are not listening to me." Fresho's mum says. Her voice is controlling the whole room. Loud and frightened.
As soon as she finishes her statement, She takes steps towards me, raises her hand to slap me and I bend backward, panicking, expecting the slap to land on my cheeks.
Fresho jumps down instantly, moving to my front to shield me but the drip hanger draws him back. He looks down on his hand and within seconds he forcefully rips the needle out of his hand and stands in front of me with his arms stretched widely.
"If you touch a strand of hair in her body- I will bite my tongue and kill myself right now, right here!!!" Fresho says to his mum and I dilate my eyes in shock.
His voice is loud and tense like he meant what he just said. It happened so fast that I almost don't know how it happened. My heart is thumping swiftly and my hands and body are shaking.
Everyone in the room looks so shocked too, Including Fresho's mum. She hangs her hand in the air as her eyes widened in shock
My heart literally stops the moment Fresho flies to my front, thinking the slap will land on his cheek. I sigh with relief when I do not hear any slapping sound. Because I can't imagine Fresho taking a slap for me in his present situation.
"Ayo, blood....." Tunde says, rushing to Fresho.
My gaze moves to Fresho's hand and I see blood dripping down from the hand that he just ripped out the drip's needle from. He obviously didn't know until Tunde talked. He looks at the hand briefly and looks back to his mum again, not minding the blood and still doesn't put down the hand. He seems like he doesn't care, like stopping his mum from hurting me is his only priority. He looks desperate and determined.
Tunde tries to take the hand that is dropping blood but Fresho jerks it away from him and faces me.
"Are you okay?" He asks me in terror, holding my shoulders. His eyes are flickering in fear.
Oh God, why is he asking me that when he is the one dripping blood? He is still worried about me, even in this situation?
