"I thought we were going to talk to Mama?" Liah asks when Anthony stops the car at Jody's gate. "We are, Mama is here, I thought it would be safer for you to meet her here rather than at our house." "Is Jody here too?"
"Yes, she is, and I know a lot of shit went down between you two, but you need to fix that and fast because we need her," Anthony says, stepping from the car. "Can I at least talk to mama first?" "Whatever, come on."
As soon as Liah entered the house, her mother ran towards her, hugging her tightly. "Oh, honey, I'm so sorry. If only I hadn't forced you to be with him, and here I was thinking that he was a good person. Oh god, I'm so sorry, my sweetheart, look what he did to you." Her mother cried as she looked at Liah's wrists.
"There's no way I'm going to allow him to get away with what he did. I bet his mother knows where he is. I have a few choice words to say to that woman." Her mother huffs.
"Mama..." "No, Liah, they always act so damn high and mighty, yet her son goes and does something like this, they will pay, I swear they will." Her mother growls. "Mama, they can't know that I am pregnant; no one in this community can know."
"Don't worry, honey, that's one thing I won't let slip, but trust me, they won't be able to hold their heads up in this community. I'll make sure of it." "What about not rendering evil for evil and all that?" Liah asks with a snort.
"That was before her son tried to kill my daughter." Her mother says through clenched teeth. "I don't want revenge, mama, I just want to leave this place and never look back." Liah cries. "And we will, but are you feeling well enough to travel? Are you still in pain?" Her mother asked, her voice filled with concern.
"I'm fine, Mama, and it's no use blaming yourself. David fooled all of us, but thank God I survived." "Yes, yes, thank God and Tony for that, I'm so glad you're okay, there's a lot we need to talk about, but we don't have the time right now, and I'm still a little upset with you for lying to me and committing fornication with Michael under my roof." Her mother says, slapping Liah's upper arm.
"I'm sorry mama." "Oh well, at least with Michael gone, you now have time to repent of your sins, so you will at least have a chance to see God's face." Her mother sighs. "I've already begun to repent, mama." "Okay, good."
"Have you seen or spoken to Zoey since Anthony took her to Razor's base?" Liah asks. "No, and I don't know if I want to, I mean, I know she's also a victim of David's lies but for her to go that far and do all she did, the extent of her deceit, its just too much for me to digest right now....but are you sure that Tony got Michael's identity right?" her mother ask.
"Oh, he's sure." Liah nods. "So Michael is really the crown prince of Saudi Arabia?" "Yep, he is.' "The crown prince of Saudi-Arabia was in my house? Sleeping in my son's bed? And eating from my dishes?" "Yep." "And you're all a hundred percent sure about that?" "Yes, we are."
"Christ of Daniels, and you're now carrying his heir or heiress in your stomach?" "Yes, I am." "Then you're right, we need to leave this place, right now." Her mother says, grabs her by the hand, and with her other hand grabs a suitcase and heads towards the door.
"Not before I say a few words to her," Jody says, blocking their path, her arms folded across her breasts. "Jody...I'm...." "What?" Jody snaps, then continues. "Sorry? Of course you are, you're also a sorry excuse for a friend, but on the other hand, I too am glad that you're okay and David will get what's coming to him, no matter where he hides, but you, I can't believe that you didn't believe me when I told you that Zoey was lying...
Yes, I know she's your little sister, Liah, but come on, for crying out loud, it was so obvious that she was lying, just one look at Michael, the sincerity in his voice, how could you not see his innocence? I can't believe you, of all people, couldn't see that, and then you had the nerve to accuse me of wanting to sleep with him....?
well you weren't wrong there, but..." "So you did want to sleep with him," Liah states, cutting her off. "Of course I did, what hot-blooded woman wouldn't want a piece of that action, but that was only a fantasy for me because he was your man and that's a line I would never cross..
And even if I was stupid enough to try and cross it, that would've destroyed my relationship with Joseph, not to mention Michael would have shut me down in a hot second because he was still so in love with you. Ugh, I can't believe you, jackass." Jody fumes, glaring at Liah.
