Chapter 15: Chapter 15
Justin POV
I barge in my room in anger meeting Stephen on a chair studying.
Well he is not my roommate, he just came here to do my homework
I don't even have time to talk to him, I have a lot of things on my mind right now
I just kept pacing thinking of what to do.
"Whoa, bro calms down, what's the matter, did you find Jenny? did you talk to her? what did she say?"
he asked randomly
"Will you stop with questions, I can't think straight"
I yelled
"Okay, sorry, but I still need answers to my questions"
"I met Jenny in the room, and I talked to her"
"Okay, what happened, did she tell you why she hate you"
"Yes, she did"
"Okay, why are you so angry? what did she say?"
"She said the reason why she hates me is because of my father"
I clenched my fist in anger
"Your father? how is he involved in this"
"I don't know Stephen, that's why am so confused, what did my father do to her, did he perhaps offend her, or her family"
I sat down angrily on my bed and dipping my hands into my hair
"Relax Justin, all you have to do is just ask your father the same question
I thought for a while
"I need to tell Jessica about this"
I picked up my phone, dialled her number and she picked at the first ring
"Hey Justin, what's up," she said
"Jessica we have a serious problem"
"Really? what happened, why do you sound so hard"
she said it in a serious tone
"I went to talk to Jenny"
"Ok, what happened?"
"She told me that the reason why she hates me is because of what dad did to her"
"What!, did dad perhaps know her somewhere?"
"That's the same question I asked myself, I'm so confused right now"
"Relax Justin, am also confused about this, there are lots of questions that need to be answered"
"Look I don't know what to do right now," I said
"Okay, why don't you just call Dad and ask him the question"
"That's was what I was thinking, so I want you to do it"
"Justin you can't need my help for everything, look.... just call dad and maybe he will explain things to you"
I sighed exasperatedly
"Alright, I will call him"
"Awesome, whatever he says, just accept it okay"
"Alright sis, I'll get back to you later"
"Ok Justin bye"
I ended the call and went straight to my dad contact, maybe it was high time I had called him now
He picked at the third ring
finally
" Hello father"
"Hello son, it's indeed a surprise to see you calling me
" Yeah I know"
I don't mainly call my dad, only on important occasions as I need money, I guess that is why he is really surprised
"How is your sister?"
," She's a good father. Dad, I need to ask you a question and I want an honest answer"
"Okay, can we make it quick, I'll be having a meeting in a few minutes"
(Of course, he does)
"Dad, do you perhaps know who Jeffrey Maxwell is?
After the question, there was silence, was dad thinking of what to say or...
"Hello, dad are you there?
" Yes son, I heard your question"
"Ok, I need answers dad"
" Why did you ask?
"
"Dad please answer me"
" Fine, Jeffrey and I used to be best friends"
I can't believe what am hearing, so dad does know jenny's family
" Yes dad, Go on"
"We are always close, we graduated together, and got a job at the same time, we shared everything, our money, our apartment......., but there was one thing we didn't share
"And that is? I asked curiously
" The same woman"
What? what does he mean by a woman
" What happened?
I asked curiously
" After we both agreed on who we want to become, he chose to become a military man, and I chose to become a businessman, we both agreed on our decision
Until.......
" Until when?
" Until he fell in love with a woman in his military base, he approached her and she agreed to be his girlfriend, and they become future life partners
But when he told me about it, I was happy then, then I decided to pay him a surprise visit
I entered his military base and I was directed to his room but unfortunately, I met a lady on his bed"
Retrospect (flashback)
Hank (Justin's dad) went to Jeffrey (jenny's dad) room, but unfortunately, he saw a lady on his bed
"Hello, may I help you?" she asked
"I am looking for Jeffrey Maxwell, the owner of this room"
"Ok, who are you?"
"I am Hank, his best friend"
"Oh Hank timbermind, it's so nice to see you"
"Am sorry, I don't think I remember this face"
"Well you don't know me, am Jeffrey's girlfriend, nice to meet you"
"Oh, you are Catherine right?"
"Yeah"
"It's so nice to meet you, I heard so much about you"
"And also you"
We both shook hands
"Be careful, there is oil on the floor"
"Oh ok, is Jeffrey home?"
"No, he will be back anytime from now"
"Alright, you are quite very beautiful"
"Thank you," she said smiling
He then decided to take a walk through his room, the room was breathtaking, it has an AC, and many others
Then before he wanted to turn back, he has forgotten that Catherine was behind, he accidentally bumped into her and they both landed on the bed, Hank on top of her
And then Hank entered the room at the wrong time
He couldn't believe his eyes, his best friend was trying to rape his girlfriend.
Hank sighted at Jeffery and saw the angry look on his face, he quickly stood up from Catherine
"Jeffrey, it's not what it looks like"
Jeffrey remained speechless, he knew what he saw.
"I can't believe you Hank, my best friend trying to rape my girlfriend"
"What!, I would never try......
"Enough, I know what I saw, and you were forcing yourself on her"
"Jeffrey you are mistaken"
"Mistaken?" he didn't even listen to whatever he has to say, he just started hitting him on his face
"Jeffrey?"Catherine called
"Jeffrey stop, you might kill him"
"Keep quiet you" he yelled to her, but she had no choice but to remain silent
"Jeffrey stop, "Hank said and release himself from his bondage
"You disgust me, Hank, I regretted the day I because friends with you, I trusted you"
"Jeffrey just listen to me"
"I don't want to hear it" he yelled
"Just leave and never show your face here ever again, I despise you"
"Listen to me?"
Jeffrey dragged him by the shirt and threw him out of his base
Jeffrey is more dominant and powerful than Hank, he is a military man.
End of retrospect (flashback)...
"And then I realized that he became a successful military man, and he still married that lady, and after four years, I heard that they divorced for some reason"
Divorced?
So that's why Jenny hate so much, I think my dad is the reason why her parent got divorced
"But Dad, you said both of you didn't share the same woman, did you perhaps have feelings for her or something"
"Not, I just found her attractive, that's all"
" Alright dad"
" Why did you ask me that question"
"I was just curious"
"Alright, take care, my son"
" Alright bye"
I ended the call and threw my phone on the bed angrily
Stephen heard about it, cause my phone was on the speaker
"Am sorry Justin"
"I need to rest for a bit"
"Alright"
I laid down heavily on my bed and closed my eyes immediately hoping to get some sleep
