Chapter 36
My whole patient and upbringing ran out through the window and I was almost standing to land on Jojo but Melinda was ahead of me.
She fling the napkin to her face and went straight at Jojo who seemed to be prepared for the moment.
A serious fight broke out, Melinda was fighting with annoyance and anger at the way Jojo was not remorseful for all her deeds.
They threw each other at every corner of the house, Joe tries to separate but I told him not to intervene. Joe did not listen, he we went pulling Melinda who has intertwined herself with Jojo on the floor.
Jojo try to turn her over and that moment Joe was pulling Melinda which gave Jojo the gap to hit and turn Melinda over to the ground.
Jojo sat on Melinda, blowing and hitting her hard while calling her nasty names. Melinda felt helplessly as Jojo hit her.
I was not going to let Jojo take the trophy of a winner. It was obvious that she was going to beat up Melinda.
I can see that Jojo was stronger and sitting on Melinda gave her more edge.
I quickly intervened. I pulled off Jojo with force from Melinda.
This was going to be my fight and I will show Jojo that she messed up with the wrong person. I may be calm and collected but that doesn’t make me a weak person.
After pulling her off, I asked Melinda to stay away and I told Joe not to try to separate us.
Jojo charged at me but she was an easy kill because I wasn’t fighting like my life depends on it, just like she was doing. I was going to beat her up without much effort. I don’t care her little experience at the gym or whatever fighting tactics she had, I’m not Melinda. I’m not an easy meat to roll over and chew which was why I hate trouble and avoid all extreme but today Jojo need to be taught a lesson. Her cup of offence was overflowing.
With just two heavy blow, one to her mouth and the other came right to her nose which made her nose to start bleeding immediately, I felt that was enough for her but the small witch did not want to give up.
She was ready to fight with all her strength. My third and fourth blow sent her crashing on the floor, she almost landed her head on my television but was lucky that Joe caught her mid-way before she will hit her head and suffer internal bleeding or brain damage.
Jojo try to stand but felt dizzy, her legs couldn’t carry her. She lay helplessly on the ground panting like a dog on a marathon race.
Joe was angry that none of his sisters listened to him. He brought cold water to Jojo and poured some on her head and her bleeding nose.
Melinda was cheering, she danced and kicked at Jojo who was too tired to stand from the ground.
Melinda was rejoicing as if she was declared a winner from a world war.
I asked Jojo to leave my house, she tried to get up but fell back to the ground. Joe volunteered to drop her off to her destination but I and Melinda refused him going anywhere.
I pulled Jojo up from the ground by her hair and was pushing her out when there was another knock on the door. The whole house was scattered and turned upside down. I hate the fact that my brother watched the event but I warned him and he decided to stay.
Melinda was at the door, she whispered back to me that it was Ohio after looking through the security hole.
Something was burning, Melinda pot of food has been burning since and was almost turned into charcoal before she rushed to put off the cooking gas.
Everywhere smells of smoke and burnt food. She opened up the window, put on the fan and the air condition.
Joe opened the door and stepped outside fuming angrily at us.
Ohio was surprise to see a man come out looking all worked up, then Melinda stepped out and greeted Ohio cheerfully.
She even hugged him and Ohio returned the hug.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
He wanted to go inside but I was at the door already with Jojo who I was still pulling by the hair.
Immediately Jojo saw Ohio she began to cry out.
“Ohio help me…. please help me. Becca and all her family members gathered to beat me up. They beat me up and broke my nose. Both her brother and that her stupid younger sister standing beside you…yes, they all joined hand to do this to me. Because they knew that if they come at me one after the other I would have dealt with them mercilessly and…
She was still talking when I slapped her mouth harder than the first. It was swollen within seconds. She screamed out in pain, Ohio hushed me not to hit her again. Melinda jumped up excitedly, clapping her hand and mocking Jojo.
I told Ohio to stay away from it because he won’t understand the gravity of Jojo’s offense.
I pushed her outside the gate and straight to her car. i asked her to drive out and I never want to see her near my gate ever again. She can go ahead and mingle with Silas, I don’t care. all that matters to me is that she should keep her distance from me and mine because she may not survive my wrath next time.
Jojo’s face was swollen, she took tissues from her car and cleaned her bloody nose. Her mouth was the size of a tangerine. I did not pity her one bit because she doesn’t deserve any mercy at all.
She wind up her car glass, pulled up her middle finger at me before driving off immediately.
Ohio and Melinda followed us outside, they stood watching. While Melinda was chanting up and down with the way I dealt with Jojo.
Joe was sitting in one of my Dad’s car that him and Melinda came with, watching in silence. I went to meet him.
He was angry with me and did not hide it.
he started voicing out his anger.
“You and Melinda did not even listen to me…or respect my presence. Even if your friend is crazy does it mean you and Melinda should also be crazy at same time? I know Melinda used to be the mad one but Becca, you were always quiet, forgiving, tolerance and hardly take offence. What happened to you? I don’t like this new you at all, I came to spend good time with my sisters but here I am in the middle of a crazy drama. I was speechless and confuse at the whole saga…. i watch you fight with fire in your eyes. The girl is not to your match Becca and you shouldn’t allow her word to get into you. I know you to be better and very accommodating…. Melinda is the aggressive one, and Jojo could have beaten her to stupor if we were not there but your friend is never an equal to you. Did you know that Jojo could have hit her head on the television or hard object and there will be more trouble for everyone? Melinda left her cooking without putting off the gas to come and fight even when she knows that her strength lies only in her unbridled tongue. The whole house would have go up in flames…jeeez! I hate to imagine the worst. Dad and Mom will be so disappointed in you girls. You need to control your anger Becca, it would have being better to send Jojo out of your house than to engage her into a fight…
“I’m sorry Joe, really sorry if you feel disrespected. But I asked you to leave and you refused. Jojo deserve whatever she got and even more but this will be the last time she will smell close to me again. Me and Melinda are sorry…. hope you are not still angry at your sisters that you have not seen for so long? I want you to meet somebody…please come…. pleaseeeeeee
Joe tickled my ear just as he usual do when we were younger, he smile as we walked towards Ohio.
Melinda was standing, laughing, displaying and talking with Ohio who looks confused at Melinda’s dramatic display.
She was telling Ohio how she beat up Jojo and broke her nose.
I laughed out even Joe joined in laughing after hearing Melinda say she beat up Jojo. It was going to be the opposite if not that I intervened and that was what Joe said to her.
