BOOT STRAPS

Heated Arguments

"So you decided to pick your call! Skai get back home this instant! We are all scared. " Mike could hear his voice from where he sat which made him frown.

"Who's that ?!" Mike sounded so annoyed and he slightly raised his voice.

"Who are you with, whose voice is that ?" I was so angry at the way Drake was raising his voice at me. I ended the call and tossed it on my seat.

"Let me guess, Drake ?" He said with his eyes focused on the road.

"Yes." I let out a heavy sigh as I rested my head on the window.

"Why would he talk to you like that ?" He sounded a little pissed with his as his face evolved into a scowl.

"If you are with me, I would've let him talk to you like that irrespective of the fact he's your boss." He shook his head in a disapproving way as he increased his speed.

"Well he's not going to be my boss for long." I said as I fondled with the end of my jacket.

"What do you mean ?" He asked me with his eyes on the road.

"I'm working for him based on a contract and I have barely two months left." I was expecting myself to feel happy that I would be able to leave Drake's claws soon but I just felt numb.

"That's great then !" He smiled at me and he pat one of my hands with his palm and returned his hand back to the steering wheel.

We drove for some hours and it was already late when we got to the gate leading to Drake's mansion.

The guards let us in when they saw me in the car,as we approached the house I could see Drake, Becky, the twins and Darius standing outside the house.

I opened the door and walked out of it as slowly as I could reserving my energy for the drama that awaited me.

"Get inside !" He ordered the twins, they restrained but Becky urged them to do so as she rushed behind Drake.

Drake paced down to where we were and rushed towards Mike and threw a fist into his face.

"Get this idiot out of my house !" He ordered some cops that were around us.

"What's wrong with you ?! You love hurting people don't you ?!" I snarled at Drake as I rushed to where Mike was.

"Shut up Skai! You don't have the right to say that after what you did today !" He blasted me with his words as I faced him.

"Oh really?! Okay you mind telling me about Angie or the innocent baby you killed uhn ?!" I shoved him backwards forcefully with all the anger I had been nurturing in me.

Drake gripped my arms tightly and I couldn't wiggle my way out of his grip then Mike rushed towards where I was but one of cops refrained him while the other pushed Drake away from me.

"Drake, quit it! Mike I think you should leave." Darius said as he ushered Mike into his car.

"For the love of God can any of you get any more stupid !" Becky shouted at the three of us with so much frustration.

"You're all acting like brainless toddlers, you all don't think about how your actions affects others, you just do what you feel is right at the moment." She walked up to me and gave me and gave me a disappointed look.

"And you Skai, you don't just run out like that and not take anybody calls, we were all worried about you. You didn't even take any guards with you what if Andre attacked you uhn ?!" She shook her head in a disapproving way and walked towards her brother.

"C'mon, let's go home. You've displayed enough. " She put her hands around Mike as they walked towards his car.

I rushed to Becky and Mike, I put my hands on his temple that was bleeding due to Drake's punch,I looked angrily at the injury.
