From Squalor To Splendor

“Why are you spying on me? What do you want from me? And who sent you?” Justin bombarded Isabella with numerous questions within one breath as she jerked off his hand from her grasp.

“I’m not spying on you, Justin. My mom isn't feeling well, so I decided to come to the pharmacy to get her some drugs.” she rolled her eyes. “ That reminds me, you haven't answered my question. What are you doing? And who was that you were shouting at on the phone?”

“That’s none of your business, woman. Leave me alone,” Justin smacked and attempted to leave, but Isabella sidestepped and stood in his way, robbing him of the opportunity to move.

“No, Justin. It's my business. Whatever concerns you, concerns me.” she smirked.

“Oh, really?” Justin chuckled. “ Get out of my way, you hypocrite.”

He pushed her out of the way and began walking away from the coffee shop.

Isabella couldn't help but follow him, eager to convince Justin that she was a changed lady. She considered that moment as the opportunity to dis
