Get Me Married

Chapter 58: Chaos arose

JORDAN

“She left, mom,” I said into the phone with a heavy heart. I didn’t know what else to do nor did I know where I was supposed to begin from. My heart was filled with worry and anxiety, I could no longer think straight. I knew it was my fault, it was all my fault, I had lied to her, I had cheated her of the justice she truly deserved, I had acted like I shouldn’t and I had thrown my uprightness away without a second thought because I wanted to save Samantha and correct the mistake she had made.

“What do you mean by she left?” The sleepy tone my mom started with disappeared almost immediately and panic replaced it. I sighed heavily and ran my hands through my hair in agitation.

“Genesis left the house,” I said calmly knowing she wouldn’t understand what I was saying if I just keep blurting out things. I have never been so messed up or worried.

“What do you mean by she left the house?” She yelled.

“She found out everything and found out that I knew. She was so angry, she left” I said with pained feelings inside my chest.

It was strange, she was the same woman I wanted out of my house and out of my life a few weeks ago. I would have done almost anything to send her away, but I didn’t because she was married to me with or without chasing her away, and my mother would have killed me for sending her.

Then my dad would have blabbed about how I destroyed his name and image. But now that she had left, I felt terrible and wanted her back.

“Ain’t you a fool, Jordan?” My mom suddenly said in a calmer tone.

“I didn’t know what to do. I couldn’t let Sam go to prison for such a mistake”I expressed vividly.

“Well….y’all made your choices, live with it,” my mom said dryly and unaffected. She was saying something entirely different. Something I didn’t want to hear or listen to especially because I knew she could change everything.

“Is that the only thing you have to say?” I questioned her.

“What else do you want me to say Jordan?”

“She is your daughter-in-law, shouldn’t you tell her to return home” I snapped feeling like she was enjoying what was happening to me.

“And she is your wife ” she entered immediately and I went quiet knowing she was my right, it was my fault, it was and I needed to sort it out myself.
