Chapter 3 He hated her

Taylor

I struggled to catch my breath as Liam looks at me with eyes blazing with fire, he looked angry and pissed making me wonder what's wrong with him, but he was choking me so badly, I could hardly breathe,

"Liam.... what are you... doing?" I stuttered

"Shit!" He cursed and pulled away, he glared harshly at me before going upstairs, I was coughing so badly, the pains from his strong hands still lingered on my neck. I was confused, what happened? Did I offend him in any way, this is the first time Liam has ever gotten so close to me and the first thing he did was choke me in anger,

I massaged my neck to ease the pain as I went up to my room which was next to Liam's, I walked in and went straight to the bathroom a nice bath is what I needed to cool off, I came out of the bathroom, and dried my body after which I changed into something comfy,

I was drying my hair with a towel when the blaring sound of my phone interrupted me, I walked to the bed and picked up my phone, but then I saw it was an unknown number, I slid on the green icon

"Taylor...!" Kelly's Loud voice blared through the speaker, I took the phone away from my ear as my eardrum almost got damaged

"Kelly, do you want to destroy my ear?" I nagged happily, this is the first time that someone called my line apart from Liam's parents who call from time to time to check up on me, Liam didn't even have my line ID.

"No...no...I'm just excited to hear your voice, I could feel the happiness in his voice too

"Hmmm, me too, but how did you get my number?" I asked, my stomach growled showing how hungry I was, I left my room while I'm still on call with Kelly

"About that? I have my ways getting your number wasn't a big deal"

"Why do I feel like you're smirking while saying this?" I asked as I walked downstairs and entered the kitchen but was surprised to see Liam eating bread and jam, I gulped down nervously and ignored him as I walk straight to the fridge to get something to eat

"Oh my world, I can't believe we've known for just one day and you knew me this much already"

"Of course, you're easy to read"

"Just easy? Don't you think you're missing something?"

"Hmm, what could that be?" I asked and took out two eggs from the fridge

"I'm handsome too, don't you think so?"

"Oouuuuu..., someone is being so proud huh?" I teased

"Of course, your best friend is the most handsome basketball player you should be proud of me"

"Of course I'm proud of you Mr handsome"

"That's more like it," He said laughing over the phone, a loud bang landed on the kitchen table making me flinch back in fear, I turned and saw Liam glaring daggers at me

"Uhm Kelly I'll call you back"

"It's everything okay? What's that sound?"

"Don't worry I'll call you back" I said and ended the call

"If you want to talk so loud and flirt with a guy who's not even your boyfriend why didn't you go back to your dead parent's house and do your dirty thing there!" He screamed right to my face piercing my heart with his words,

Tears rolled down my eyes as I watched Liam say shit about me without even caring if his words hurt my feelings. I wipe my tears, I've promised myself not to ever cry because of Liam again.

"Why do you hate me so much Liam? I know I irritate you and you don't like me and that's why all these years I've done my best to stay away from you, I'm in your parent's house Yes! I know, but that does not give you the right to say trash about my parents, you can insult me all you want Liam but keep my dead parent's name out of your lips and if you hate me so much that you can no longer stand me then go and hit your head on the wall cause you're not your parents that keep me in this house" I glared at him before I left the kitchen, I've lost the appetite.

I got back to my room feeling so hurt but at the same time happy that I talked back to Liam without any fear, honestly I don't know what gave me the courage to talk to him in that way, I guess I was so mad when he mentioned my dead parents,

What did I ever do to him? Why does he hate me so much?

He hates it when I talk to him

He hates when am alone

He hates it when I talk to others, why does he choose to hate me so much yet smile at almost everyone in school, does my presence irritate him that much?

Why can't I be good enough to him? I've loved him all these years yet his hatred for me keeps growing stronger every single day. Even when I chose to make friends with others he still hated me, I can't help my tears as they keep pouring. Is it a crime to love Liam?

Whatd oes he really want from me?
