Ugh. I have had the worst morning. Although considering it, the day ended up fairly well.
So at roughly...10:00/10:30am, my friend, her mum and the tag-a-long she's obtained come into my workplace. I work with my mother, so after I do the transaction that she wanted, the mother requests to speak with my mother.
Now immediately I have a rough idea of what this is about. For you see last night I was at my boyfriend's place and received a text message from my friend highlighting the lack of return of a DVD. Now a few minutes later I also received a message saying she found it. But we still replied to her first one apologising for not responding sooner as we were "having couple times under the covers" which to us means cuddling under the blanket. But to them obviously means more then that. -sigh-
Anyway, so my friend, the tag-a-long and her mum go into the spare office to talk, and I'm outside for about 2 minutes until mum calls me in too. She puts me on the spot immediately by quickly paraphrasing what they were talking about, and then asking me to explain Paul's side. Now, when I get put on the spot I freeze. And that's exactly what happened. My mind hit pause, I couldn't think, I just couldn't do anything. Then mum went to serve a customer, leaving me alone in there with her mum claiming that they were going to take a court order out against him etc etc.
==discontinued until the morning; it's 2am==
==recontinued at 12:05pm next day==
I needed sleep. I was so tired xD
Anyway where was I? Oh yes. The court order claims and how I froze.
Well, in my panic I offered to ring my boyfriend and let him explain his side of the story. So I did, trying to get to his mobile first, but that just went straight to message bank so I rang his home phone number. His mum answered the phone so I asked to speak to him. The poor bugger was actually still asleep when I rang to talk to him about this. So he said herro and I said herro then mum took the phone off me and started talking to him about how she had an upset mother of my friend here and what was going on. She talked to him about that for a little while, then after saying that the two of them (my friend and my boyfriend) don't have to like each other, but they should act like the grown ups they are and just leave each other alone.
So after that mum hung up the phone and started talking again to my friend, the tag-a-long and her mum. Basically the conversation (although it was more like a monologue cause just mum was talking) went something like this:
"Okay, I've just talked to him and I know that there is a history between these two here, but if they can both just agree to leave each other alone, they don't have to like each other and I do understand that considering their past I doubt that they will. But, if they can both be grown ups and let this go, and just leave it alone, then we'll move on. Now I've told him that if he does do it again I won't be able to stop you calling the cops, by all means do, but I can see that there is instigation on both sides."
Now, you should have seen my friends face when mum said that she knew that there was history between the two of them (and there has been). Now up to this point her face was like "yessss Paul's getting into trouble". It immediately changed to "oh fuck please dont say anything more". So this lead both my mother and I to believe that her mother actually didnt know the entire story. Which is fine, if my friend decides to only tell her mum the half story, unlike my mother who I tell the whole story to, it's her choice.
The other thing that was great was how my friend's mother was going off over the notion of me having sex (implied by the message we meant cuddles by), and then she turns around and claims to know of a certain set of risque pictures that my friend sent my now boyfriend before I even met him. For you see she actually did want to get with him at one point. But I digress. I laugh at how her mother dared to be so high and mighty about me when her daughter is just as bad. Honestly it is just so laughable.
Anyway, after mum had her monologue I had to go out to serve customers so I don't know what else was said, but I didn't really want to go back in there. But of course mum called me back in to go say bye. I had to hug them. A task which at the time was a chore to me cause I couldn't believe they had the audacity to come into my work place and shoot us up with this crap.
But anyway, it's all sorted now, I just needed to vent a little. Get it off my chest. Again. I've already talked to two people about this including my boyfriend, but I've decided I'd love a record of this in case it flares up in future. And I am honestly expecting it to. I have told Paul though that if he does receive any more messages/emails/facebook messages that are nasty in any way, to pass them onto me and I will go deal with it. He's promised me he'll leave it up to me. This could be a big responsibility. Let's see how I go with it if anything should happen shall we?
