My Star
Writer
The hurt in Maliah’s eyes made Edward drive silently. He thought of what Maliah’s dad might have said or what he did to her to ruin a perfect day for her.
“How could he?” He questioned no one, in anger, his hands grabbing the sterling with such pressure that his veins popped out.
He knew how nervous she was today, how many times she had to practice her speech in front of him. How she wanted to be perfect today and have a perfect day. He could recall the anxiety almost kicking back when they were almost at the venue. He had to rub her thighs through the ride, reassuring her and letting her know how amazing she was.
Only for all of that fun, that happiness and joy be ripped off her after having such a wonderful day. They should be celebrating now, and he could have rewarded her, but all of that was ruined by the man who had made her cry at times he couldn’t count. He knew Maliah disliked him, he knew she was wounded by him and just today he could have put up a wonderful show for his daughter, he went ahead to bring his baggage with him.
“I want a drink,” Maliah said immediately after they approached a club. Edward didn’t question any of it and came to a halt immediately. He parked the car and before he would come out to open the doors for her, she was out already.
She was inside the bar, before him and she put on a smile as she ordered a tequila. She took three glasses of it and walked straight to the dancing floor swaying her hips.
She lifted her hands, playing with her hair and dancing so hot that Edward restrained himself from joining her.
“Come on, let’s dance,” she said to him, and pulled him to the counter, offered a drink for both of them, and had him take it. She dragged him to the dance floor and started to rock her waist on his torso. She whined her body, twirling at instances while she brushed her butt against his dick smiling cheekily like she didn’t know what she was doing.
“You are drunk,” He whispered to her, trying not to be fazed by her performance but his body said otherwise. He could feel his dick get erect while she bent over him, placing his hands on her back and twerking hard on him.
“Did I do good, Amore,” she laughed and turned around to face him, rubbing her titties to his face, while she plants kisses all over him.
“That’s what you like to call me right?” She smiled at him and kissed his neck while moaning…
“Maliah,” he called and pulled her away from his body, but instead she laughed and had another shot before coming back to him.
She swayed her hips, having his hand rest on her ass, while she danced on him seductively. She brought her lips closer to his and started to kiss him. He tried to resist, as she sucked his lips, but she bit his lower lips making him open up involuntarily as she thrust her tongue into his.
“Mmm,” she moaned. Immediately he squeezed her ass and opened up to the kiss, she started to play with his hair for a bit, as her hands trailed off his chest till his torso kissed him still.
She lifted one of her legs, her eyes closed, still kissing him. The drinks, and the desire she felt made her body burn from wanting to have him right now. She wanted to be touched so badly, she wanted to be fucked by him right now…
“Fuck me,” she whispered in his ears, her hand finding its way to his dick rubbing it and moaning to the kiss when Edward pulled off.
“I won’t have you here. Not now,” he said to her, while she looked at him.
“Why?” She asked, her eyes looking sad…
“Because when I fuck you, I want you to remember and never forget,” he spoke to her, she felt her breathing hitched at that moment as she stare at him unable to say a word.
“Let’s go Maliah, you’re drunk,” he grabbed her hands, dropped a few dollar notes on the counter, and dragged her into the car.
They got home, and he helped her to the bed, taking off her shoes and helping her. She fixed off immediately without saying anything further, while he grabbed himself one more drink before going to bed too.
The next day, Maliah woke up and left for work early. She made breakfast for him and dropped a side note that she was grateful for last night. Edward’s heart beamed in happiness as he got set for the day. But little did he know that things were about to get messed up.
Maliah was in her office when her dad walked into her office. She rose from her seat staring at him surprised to see him here as she thought that he already left…
“Father,” she paused, asking her assistant to leave them alone.
“What are you doing here? I thought you left already?” she asked, going through her shelf and waiting for him to speak.
“You are his white, right?”
“Pardon,” Maliah looked at him confused
“If this isn’t about me, and has nothing to do with me, then you are his whore,” he spat looking at her, almost disgusted.
“Is that why you are here? To call me names. Your daughter’s name,” she said and pointed to herself.
“I just want to understand you Maliah. I want to know what’s going on,” he tried to hold her hands but she moved away and pointed her fingers at him clearly stating he shouldn’t be here.
“You should know it’s too late to get updated on my life. Do you even love me, Father? Have you ever cared for Mom, Junior, or myself,” she asked him almost teary.
“Don’t bring that up, I have changed. I am working legally, I haven’t done gambling for a very long time and you know how it is,” he defended truthfully…
“Well changing doesn’t involve stopping gambling alone. You’ve got to change your mentality too, you have to change this narcissistic behavior of yours,” she said in the last sentence in a yell, while he scoffed at her.
“narcissistic! You think I’m the one behaving like a narcissistic,” he laughed evilly and took a step forward staring at her.
“You are the one that went out your way to be the whore of a man who almost killed me,” he said in disgust and she looked at him as tears dropped from her eyes.
“He is my boyfriend,” she yelled, and for the first time since that night, she said those words and claimed him.
“And you think someone as powerful as that would have something to do with you,” he paused…
“You think with your newly found status, you deserve someone so powerful like him. You are just feeding your delusions Maliah, cause a person like that would not have anything to do with a person like you. Cause all you are to him is just a dirty whore,” he looked at her in disgust and turned around to leave.
“Grow up child,” he said and left her office, while she managed to drag her legs back to her desk, crying her eyes out.
She felt sad, self bitter, she felt unworthy as the words not deserving of him continued to repeat themselves in her head. She wasn’t like him, she knew that already, she didn’t have all that fame and wealth yet even though she was doing great. But she wasn’t elite like him, and the thought of it being true made her shudder in fear.
Two days after the incident Maliah completely ignored him, and on the third day, she decided it was time to take him off the picture of her life completely.
Edward
This wasn’t what I had in mind when I decided to stay at Maliah’s place. I had thought about the fun and amazing things we would do together. But since the event she’s been weird with me, with us. I tried taking her on a date and throughout the date she just ate in silence without saying a thing and whenever I tried to strike up a conversation she replied with one word or two.
I can’t really say what’s going on as she wouldn’t let me in. But he’ll. I was worried about her. I gave her a little space and stayed in silence as she had wanted.
I could feel her slowly drifting off as the day passed, it was like she was pushing me away or was on a self-destructive mission and trying to do things that would make me snap at her.
“Edward,” she called my name for the first time today and walked downstairs to the kitchen where I was working on my phone while snacking.
“Yes love,” I responded
“How long are you staying for?” She asked me and grabbed an apple from the bowl of fruit.
“What do you mean?” I asked back, looking over at my phone.
“I don’t know. I just wanted to know when you’re leaving,” she smiled at me, and I nodded my head and dropped my phone on the counter.
“Are you chasing me away?” I asked calmly, foreseeing the turn the conversation was taking.
“I’m just saying you might not be comfortable here, and thought you would be leaving sooner,” she breath out
“Well, I’m fine. I’m staying,” I said and picked up my phone, while she took in a deep breath.
“Well you should leave, ’cause I have a trip to go to,” she lied. I knew her schedule before coming here. And I knew she wouldn’t be tightly occupied with work.

“Amore, what’s going on?” I dropped the phone again and walked to the other side where she was.
“Talk to me,” I told her calmly and touched her hands.
“Just go,” she yelled and retaliated to my touch.
“Why?” I asked calmly standing in front of her.
“I don’t want you here. You don’t want me, I don’t deserve your patience,” Her voice broke down while I hugged her tightly and patted her back gently.
“I’m sorry,” I said softly…
“Why? You didn’t do anything.” She paused.
” I have been the one trying to push you away,” she sniffed.
“I have been the one trying to prove to myself that I don’t deserve you and that you don’t really want me,” she mumbled but I heard it all.
“I want you,” I breathe on her neck
“I want you so badly,” I kissed her ears…
“I’ll always want you,” I looked into her eyes and said that meaning every word I said before kissing her lightly on the cheeks.
“I’m so sorry,” she said as I used my thumb to clean her eyes.
“Don’t apologize,” I shushed her…
“I’m so sorry for letting it happen. For not being there to stop it,” I said truthfully…
“I’m the one who doesn’t deserve you. You’re so beautiful and hard-working, and celestial, and so caring even when it hurts you the most,” I looked her in the eyes, staring deeply at her as I pointed out the way I saw her truthfully.
“You are the most genuine person I know, you are an angel, you are a star,” I said as words couldn’t comprehend who Maliah was.
“My star,” I said lastly, and she smiled brightly giving me the warmest hug I had ever received.
“I love you,” I heard her whisper, crying softly on my shoulders, as we stayed in each other’s embrace.
“I Love you Maliah,” my words were inaudible as they came out softly, with my eyes shut. I released a deep breath realizing I had completely fallen for her…
