*My Muse*♥️☺
*_Chapter 30_*
*Natasha's POV*
"Mabel?" I said, surprised.
"You look so familiar", she said trying to recall who I was.
"Yeah, I remember. You were the doctor who attended to me in the hospital sometime ago".
"Yeah", I said, forcing a smile.
"Oh come in", she said, stepping aside for me to come in.
"You can have a seat", she said to me and I got annoyed.
I'm not the visitor or stranger here. I don't know what she's doing here, but I'm not going to get paranoid. I have to put her in her place.
I walked to the dinning and placed the basket which contained the food I prepared for Oscar, down.
"Uh what are you doing here?" I asked her and she looked at me surprised.
"Uhm, I don't think it's your business".
"Well, if my boyfriend's ex fianceè shows up at his house, then it's my business", I said and she looked at me confused.
I was going to keep quiet and be the old Natasha that I was when I was with June. I'm not letting anyone tamper with my happiness and my relationship. Not this time.
She was about to speak and Oscar walked in with a bra in his hand. His eyes widened when he saw me.
"Thank you darling", Mabel said and she took the bra and left.
I stood there really confused and hurt.
"What's the meaning of this, Oscar?" I asked him.
"It's not what you think, Nat. I was home and she came asking for a bra that she claimed she left here. So I had to look for it, to give it back", he said.
"She clearly didn't need that bra. She just came here to seduce you and if I wasn't here, I don't know what would have happened".
"Oh c'mon Nat. I'm over her and..."
"Are you? For all I know, I could be a rebound", I said.
"Wow, I can say the same about you too".
"Please. You know I'm over June".
"Do I? You're in the same youth group with him and you always meet everyweek and I don't know what goes on. I feel like you're using the youth group thing too much as an excuse to see him and talk to him", he said and I was really hurt on hearing that.
"Really? Is that what you think of me? What about you Oscar. You still work for Mabel's dad and now she even works there too. How am I supposed to know what goes on over there. And you were even intimate with her! ! and I know she's trying to get you back and I don't know what you'll do when she seduces you".
"So the fact that you were not intimate with June, makes it okay for you to talk to him and be around him a lot".
"I didn't say that!! What's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong with me? I should be asking you that".
"You know what, I'm not doing this with you, when you're ready to talk like a civil person, you know where to find me", I said turning around to leave.
"Wow nice, you just going to leave. Alright you can go", he said and I ignored him and left.
*******
That evening, I sat on my bed, eating ice cream and watching a movie on my laptop.
I wanted to distract myself from thinking about the argument I had with Oscar. This was our first argument and it was really hurting me.
I continued watching the movie and it wasn't helping. I can't sit with this hurt. I have to talk to him so that we work things out.
I know it's late but I really needed to speak to him.
I changed into something appropriate and stepped out.
I was about to walk and look for a taxi and I saw Oscar's car parked in our drive way.
I was really surprised. I walked to the car and knocked on the window.
His head was on the steering wheel and when I knocked on the window, he lifted his head.
I went to the other side and got in.
"Hey", I said.
"Hey", he said, forcing a smile.
"How long have you been out here?"
"Not too long ".
"Why didn't you let me know that you were here?"
"I was still trying to gather courage to walk up to your door and press the bell", he said and I nodded.
"I'm sorry Nat(Oscar)", we said in unison.
"I'm the one who started the argument", I continued.
"No, I caused it", he said.
"No, it's not your fault that Mabel showed up at your place to ask for her bra".
"Yeah, it's not my fault. But when you were asking questions, I should have calmed down and not stir up a fight", he said.
"I was just being paranoid. It's not easy for me Oscar. You're too good to be true, so sometimes I feel you're just messing with me by being with me. And you were intimate with her, so I always feel that you're still attracted to her".
"C'mon Nat. I love just you and I'm attracted to just you. The first time we met and spoke, I had a feeling that we were not going to be just a doctor and a patient. I saw something in you that caught my eye that day and now I see more. I wish you could see what I'm feeling. You're also too good to be true. I can't find the words to describe you, but all I can say is that, I love you so much and nothing and no one can change that. If Mabel makes you feel insecured, I'm going to cut her off entirely and make sure that she'll find it so uncomfortable to be around me even if it means changing my work place. This relationship means a lot to me, I'm willing to cut loose anything that will affect it negatively. I don't want to argue with you again, Nat. It really hurt me that I had hurt you, please forgive me", he said and I was speechless.
His words really touched me and I was screaming in my head.
"I love you too, Oscar. You have no idea how much. And if June is going to be a problem, I'll....."
"June ain't my problem. I was just being paranoid. I get that you're with him for God's work, I can't come in between that. I trust you Nat, don't worry. Just be you and do whatever you have to do for God", he said and I couldn't take it anymore, I just had to hug him and he hugged me back.
We remained in that position for a long while, not saying anything but just listening to our heartbeats.
God, I thank you for bringing Oscar to my life.
Indeed you know best and your plans are also the best.
After a while, Oscar released his grip off me.
"If we continue to be in that position, I don't think I'll be able to control what I do next", he said and I laughed.
"And uhm thank you for the food. It really tasted great😌😌" he said.
"So you are it?" I asked laughing.
"Oh yeah. I saw it on the table and at first I thought it was Mabel who left it there. But then I knew she couldn't package it like that. So I knew it was you😌😌 and when I ate it, I confirmed it. It really tasted great. You're becoming better☺", he said and I smiled.
We spoke for sometime and then he had to leave because it was getting really late. I didn't want him to go but he had to. We've both got work tomorrow.
We said our goodnights and he left.
*Oscar's POV*
I got home in a very good mood but my mood changed when I saw Mabel sitting on front of my door.
She should be ready for what it's coming to her!!!🤨😐😑
