Chapter 46: Jordan’s surprise
Believing that I was safe was the last thing in my thoughts. Samantha was still free and living in the same house as me. Somehow, a criminal had sneaked into the house and had been killed before he could tell the truth. I didn’t feel safe, I felt like she had more things that were up to her sleeves and wouldn’t stop till I was dead or out of the house. How could I feel safe with such a woman in my house?
I rolled over on the bed, groaning loudly because I had tried sleeping but couldn’t. I had this fear inside of me that was stopping me from sleeping and it was slowly eating me up. Though I wanted to believe that I was safe, I felt I wasn’t safe at all. I couldn’t help it.
After a long time of rolling on the bed, I realized that I couldn’t sleep so I decided to go down and have something to eat. It had slowly become a normal routine for me and soon enough, I was getting up from my bed and walking towards the door.
When I opened the door and stepped out, a scream escaped my mouth and my heart skipped by a thousand miles.
“Ma’am” one of the men outside my door called out, shocked and confused as he turned to me. But I quickly recognized one and stared at him. He was the guard I had ordered to call the other guards earlier. I felt a little relief at seeing him.
“What are you doing here?” I asked breathlessly with my hands in my chest and they immediately bowed their head, taking their eyes off me and placing them on the floor.
“Guarding…. You” one said hesitantly and I calmed down just for a little bit. I stared at the two of them, they were all dressed in the normal guards’ uniform.
“Why? I didn’t ask for you” I took a deep breath at that point to reduce my stress.
“The boss did” they chorused and my heart skipped.
“Ohh…” Was the next best thing I could say. It was shocking to know that Jordan could have asked them to watch me from the door of my room. I didn’t understand why he was acting like he cared, I didn’t want him to act like he cared. It broke most of the walls and iciness I had in my heart for himand I didn’t want that. I wanted to remain strong and tough enough and knew I wouldn’t be able to do that if he began acting so caring.
I came out of my room and strolled down to the kitchen. Footsteps were loudly behind me and when I turned, the guards from my door were following me. I guessed they were ordered to do that so I let them. Having them around me settled some uneasiness in my heart and made me feel safe just by a little.
I took some cookies and milk out of the refrigerator and started eating. While listening to absolutely nothing. The house was silent and quiet at that time and I felt like an intruder myself for being up so early. But it wasn’t my fault anymore that I couldn’t sleep, it was draining but I couldn’t help it.
I was halfway through my midnight snack when someone pulled up and sat beside me. I didn’t
turn around to see who it was because I perceived his cologne and my heart skipped. Swallowing the cookie in my mouth suddenly became so hard, it wouldn’t pass down and the air around me felt different.
Jordan handed me my glass of milk when he noticed my uneasiness and I took it. I drank a mouthful and allowed it to help me.
