You Were Warned
Camile I pulled up into my parking spot at my tiny apartment building. It was not a run down shit hole, but it was modest enough. Amy and I moved in here together shortly after we met each other at the bar. I know total Cliche! But the second my eyes landed on my Amy, I was starstruck! I knew I would be protected forever from my hateful family, I would find love in the arms of another! I work in my father's firm, it is decent pay for what I do. While Amy works two part time jobs. Between both of our incomes, we have been saving to leave Canada and go to the States to live with Amy’s mother while we get back on our feet! The plan had been made, everything was set … All we had to do was wait for Amy’s four brothers to drive here and get our belongings. I slammed the door as I walked into our apartment, still replaying what my father had ordered me to do. "You are not going to believe this?" I tossed my purse on the table as I spotted Amy in the kitchen packing more boxes. Finishing with tapping up the box, "What?" Her bright smile made everything better. Amy always kept her light brown hair short. Perfectly shaping her oval face. I did not view her as fat like others. Amy just had more curves and a lot more to love. Huffing, I remembered what I had to tell her, "Father told me that I have to go on a business trip this weekend." "That is bull ... Cam! We are moving this weekend!" She yelled. I understood Amy's frustration! The whole time we have been together I could not tell anyone of our relationship. If I did, my father would cut me off all funds. And considering he pays me more than any other company would ever ... I had to keep everything a secret. "I know!" I pulled my hair out of my single pony, "I have to just get through this weekend ... Florida here we come!" "Why did you not tell your father no?" Amy had her hands on her hips, her face was starting to turn red. I knew that this was going to blow up into a huge fight when the topic of my father came up, it always did. "I did! He then told me that he would not give me my allowance until Monday!" I tossed my hands up in the air, "that money was the down deposit on our new life!" Amy came over to me, placing her arms around me, understanding what I was getting at. I made double the amount that she made, meaning that most of the funding was on my part. I just wanted so badly to make everything perfect!"My family will help us as long as it takes!" She kissed my forehead. Pointing to the purse, "I took out as much money as I could today and sent the rest to your bank account." I placed my hands on the side of Amy's head, "One more thing ... and I am free to be who I really am!" "Fine!" Amy huffed with frustration, "What is this business trip about?" I knew the second I said his name, Amy was going to pull a fit! "Markous ..." I was not wrong, "If there is anyone who deserves a brick to the head that would be him! What the hell is he up to this time?" "Aperintaly he has a business proposal that involves cabins, the wilderness and da.d.e wants me to make sure this is not a waste of his time!" Amy snorted, "you should have told your father that you did not need to go to know it was a waste of his time." I exhaled, "I did! You know Markous!" "He exhausted your father with his nagging, to the point that he is now sending you!" Amy pointed out the obvious. “I wish you would stop being a pushover!” She growled! I sighed, for as long as we have been together, Amy has been working on my self- confidence and standing up for myself. This works for everyone but my father. "Yeap!" I went to the fridge to get a bottle of water. "I have no idea why he is sending me as if I can say no to Markous! No one is able to say no to him!" Amy smiled, "it is because you are not capable of lying." She came up behind me, placing her arms around my stomach. "If you tell your father something positive, he will go along with the plan. If you tell your father something negative," Amy started to laugh, "there is nothing Markous will be able to say to make your father spend his money on his ideas." Twisting myself, "at least there are cabins!" I kissed her nose, "I will not be on the ground sleeping!" Amy started to think, “My brothers will be here Saturday morning or Friday night! When will you be back?” “I will be back Sunday around dinner!” I drank some water, “If I take the 401 highway, the drive will be fast! I was thinking that you could leave with your brothers after everything is packed. I will text you when I get back here. Spend the night here and then drive to your mom’s place!” Amy thought about my plan, “I will talk to my brothers, if they are cool with things we will leave when you get here.” I peaked Amy on the lips, “That sounds like a plan! Do you want me to cook dinner or help with the packing?” Slapping me on the ass, “You start dinner and I will continue packing!” I spun around the place, boxes were lining the wall everywhere. Besides the last minute items that would need to be packed. I would have guessed that ninety five percent of the place was finished. Opening the fridge I truly saw how little we had for food. Opening the cupboard I saw noodles and spaghetti sauce. Grabbing those items, I got to work on our dinner.
