"Sometimes I doubt if you love me at all, because...not once have you stood up for me... it's not like I'm asking you to disrespect her but at least make me know that you don't agree with her conclusions about me" She wiped her tears in attempt to l...
A week has passed and Michelle hasn't seen Nathan. She was worried because he left without her notice. She didn't even get to say goodbye and he hasn't called ever since. She remembered that Derek came home really angry the day he told her he was with Nathan at his new home. When she asked him why he was so angry, he didn't say anything, he just held her close to himself and she didn't want to pressure him, so, she didn't question him any further. She wondered what may have transpired between them. Maybe he argued with his mom, but if that were the case, Nathan wouldn't be avoiding her like he was doing right now.
Michelle then decided to give Nathan a call to find out if he was okay and to know why he didn't tell her he was moving out.
"Hello, Michelle?" Nathan said as soon as he picked up the call.
"Yes, it's me, Michelle... Were you expecting someone else?"
"No, it's just... Just forget it... How have you been?" He asked.
"I've been worried... Did I do something wrong?" She asked in a low and sad tone.
"No, Michelle, please don't think that way."
"Then why didn't you tell me you were moving out?... I only noticed that you had moved out a few days ago. You didn't let me say a proper goodbye."
"I didn't want to bother you... You've done more than enough already."
"Helping a friend isn't a bother to me."
"Okay, my bad. I'll make it up to you."
"And, how do you intend on doing that?" She asked with a slight chuckle.
"Name what you want, my lady."
Michelle couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Okay... I want you to visit me tomorrow."
"Just that?"
"Yeah, just that."
"Consider it done."
"I'll be expecting you tomorrow then. Bye,"
"Bye, beautiful."
Michelle blushed at the pet name. She was grateful he wasn't here to see her because that would've been more embarrassing.

It was a Saturday morning, Derek was in the living room watching TV, they had just finished having breakfast. Michelle was upstairs taking a shower. The doorbell rang and Derek wondered who it was since he wasn't expecting anyone. He went to get the door and to his annoyance, it was Nathan.
"What are you doing here? I thought I told you not to come here?" He angrily asked.
"I'm not here for you, Derek... I'm here to see Michelle." Nathan replied with a bored look on his face.
"I told you never to come close to her. It seems you didn't understand a word I said," Derek said through gritted teeth, he was already irritated with Nathan's presence.
"It seems she doesn't know that since she invited me over...so, what are we going to do about that?"
"Derek, who's at the door?"
They both turned towards Michelle who just walked into the living room. She was wearing a grey ripped cold shoulder mini sweater dress.
