Chapter 7-Meeting Marisol

I rang the bell when I arrived at the house and this stunning woman answered the door.  I had never seen anyone so flawless except on TV.  Her skin looked like porcelain, her make up look as if she had it professionally done that morning and she didn't have a single stray hair. 
"Amari, how nice to finally meet you.  I have heard so much about you that feel like I know you already."  the way she spoke was a bit eery. 
"Nice to meet you as well." I replied suddenly feeling very uneasy. "You said you got my number from a friend?"
She guided me into the house as she continued talking. "Yes, a mutual friend." She had a smile on her face but it wasn't friendly.  "Can I offer you something to drink?"
"No...no I'm fine.  You said on the phone you needed a painting."  I was trying to get to the point so I could get out of there as fast as possible.
"Yes I did, but we will get to that shortly.  So how are you enjoying the city?"  Although she was speaking to me, her eyes were focused on my growing belly.  She reached out and touched me.
"He just couldn't resist."  This time when she spoke she looked me right in the eye.  There was sort of hatred I could see burning.  I stepped back.
"I don't know what you are talking about." I said "The father of my child is of no concern to you!"
I was getting a little more frightened now and tried to leave but she stopped me with her next words.
"Mulo IS of my concern."  The way she said his name, the fact that she knew he was the father.  I was more scared than ever.
"How...I don't even..."
She let out a fiendish laugh.
"He hasn't told you."  I couldn't tell if that was a question or a statement.
"Told me what?"
"Foolish girl, he really has done quite the mind trick on you hasn't he?"
"Look" I said trying not to let the fear come through in my voice "I don't know who you are or what you are talking about."  She just stood there with this smirk on her face.
"If you have something you would like to tell me, then say it otherwise I am leaving."  I tried to sound firm, but I don't think it worked.  She let out another laugh.
"This is going to be most entertaining."  She said through her laughter.  As I was walking out I heard her ask me "How do you like the new house?"  I didn't answer and just got out of there as quickly as possible.  As I was closing the door I could hear her still laughing.

  1. It's clear that Marisol feels that she has a claim on Mulo, and that she is very jealous of Amari!

  2. I don't like Marisol and yeah she gave me the creeps too! If Mulo called her then why was she so bitchy? Because you weren't the "chosen" one? If you want this guy that much then...try being kinder to his friends, may win you some points!

    I hope she doesn't cause trouble for Amari! She seems like the type that would though :(
