Please, Call Me Auntie

her eyes at me, "Don't tell me you went back to that bastard, SORAYA?!" Laughing, I placed the cup in front of her. " Not in a million years. I've dealt with him, but not how you think." I took a few minutes to explain to her what's been happening. " But what will you do if his uncle won't let the wedding be canceled?" She asked with a frown on her face. Smiling sweetly, I hold the cup over my mouth while thinking about the night before, and I swear I feel a slight tingle down there. Clearing my throat, I say, "I'll marry his uncle." It's the first time I've said that out loud, and it feels right and wrong at the same time. " WHAT? Are you crazy?" she asks. Shaking my head, I took a deep breath. " No, im not crazy, I gave my all to a man who just discarded me the first chance he got, im not just going to let that slide." " But marriage, Soraya, is a big deal; you can't just go through it for revenge," she says. I know she was worried about me, but I had to do what I had to; Joy and Jasper would not get away with what they did. She was staring at me intensely. " What?" " Something happened, didn't it?" She asks curiously. " Whaaaattt? Why would you think something happened?" I grabbed my coffee and walked out of the kitchen. Weaving her finger in my face, she says, "Yes, something happened.

" Girl, I forgive you for being radio silent in those two weeks." She sipped her drink. " You were doing grown things," she said, wiggling her brows at me. " I tried, I tried," I pat myself on the back. Getting serious, Sky asks, " What are you going to do with this place? Sell it? Or rent it?" I look around the place, and I feel a bit of sorrow. I hate to say this is the first place that Jasper and I got together, even if I was the one who paid for everything. This house holds good and bad memories, and because of that, I've been struggling to figure out if selling it was the best option. " I don't know; I haven't decided what I want to do with it yet," I told her. I've been trying not to think about it, but it's something that I can't avoid forever. " You have to decide what to do, it's not like your new husband can move in here with you," She reminded. "By the way, doesn't he live in the family house with everyone else?" " Yeah, he does, but I'm sure once we go through with the wedding, he will move out," I explain to her. At least that's what I hope for. I don't want to be living under the same roof as those two. Pointing a finger at my face, Sky, " This is something you and he need to talk about." I had a big grin on my face when I thought about going to see him and talking about things in o
