Chapter 47: Chapter 47

Two days had past since I locked myself in my room. The food was delivered every time by a maid because I really don't want to go out, I still feel bad for my parents.

I can't marry someone like him because just in case I fall in love with that man I will only be hurt.

I got up from lying down and checked my cellphone that was almost a few percent.

I need to fix myself, I can't just sulk all the time.

I plugged in my cellphone and took a shower. I was fixing my make up when my phone rang.

Only one can call me when I am here at home, Cassandra.

My instinct is right when I see her name at the screen. A small smile crept in my face when I think of her missing me.

"Hello?" my artistic response while looking at my nail.

"I'll pay you 30k for this favor." I don't know if she is serious on what she said on the other line.

"What do you think of me? Poor?" I spat angrily then walked to my vanity mirror to check myself.

"Well, I just heard from auntie that uncle cut your cards yesterday. I just think you'll need it," she stated that made my jaw dropped.

"What ?!" I hysterically and sat on my bed.

"Yeah, I don't know what's going on. Auntie just called me this morning to say don't lend you a money. So? Will you do me a favor?" she asked as if what happened is not a big deal for me.

I slapped my forehead and exhaled.

"What is it?" I surrendered. I took my bag from the side table and prepared to leave.

I need money. I can't live without it.

"Buy me a twin mango, bring it here in my office. Thank you bitch," she said and quickly ended the call.

My brows furrowed as I looked at my phone.

Where the hell can I get that fvcking fruit?

I just closed my eyes and left the house to look for that damn mango. I went to supermarkets and other wet markets but still couldn't find that damn thing.

Is that woman fooling on me? I was pissed.

"Damn! Any mango will do. She can just glue it if she wanted a twin," I whispered and went to the one who sells fruits. I bought a mango and drove straight to his building.

"You fvckin bitch! Who are you to command a goddess like me ?! Be thankful I can't stand you," I immediately said as I entered her office and quickly approached her.

She was like a child who saw candy when I arrived.

"Did you bring it?" she asked excitedly.

I couldn’t help but rolled my eyes and then dropped myself on the chair in front of her.

"I hope you asked me first if I was okay before you asked me your purpose," I said angrily before throwing my purchases in front of her.

Ghad! I'm so sweaty damn it!

She quickly scanned it before looking at me depressed.

I raised my eyebrow. "What?" I asked.

"This is not what I asked for you," she muttered angrily.

Is this woman fooling me for real?

"What the hell? Are you serious? Who else will see a twin mango Cassandra? Are you kidding me ?!" I roared.

"D-did you just raised your voice at me?" she cried and could not believe what I just did.

"Are you making fun of me? Do you know how much thickness of face I have accumulated to find what you are looking for. You are like a preg—"

I stopped as an idea popped up in my mind.

"Tell me I'm wrong." I uttered, watching her seriously.

And I'm right. She's fvcking pregnant.

I asked her about her plans, I wanted to tease her but I could do nothing. Somehow and I understand her point but I also can not force her to do something she can not do.

We are in the middle of being dramatic when her husband came. After some talks I leave the office, it's embarrassing for me to be a third wheel. But still, I give Andrei the benefit of the doubt before I left. I don't know, I just feel that he already knew what's going on.

I sighed when I get in my car.

Only then will I tell her. Especially and she looks very emotionally pregnant.

I tsked and smiled after. "Gonna be a godmother soon." I mumbled and started my engine.

So now where am I going?

I checked my wallet, luckily I still have some cash. I drive my car to the bar that Cassandra and I always went to. I like it here, people are not that rude. I mean there are also people kissing but not the type who will cat call to you.

I sat at the bar counter and ordered tequila. I looked around the place, there were only a few people maybe because it was a bit early compared to the normal time that is crowded here.

I quietly drank the wine and transferred it back to the bartender.

I picked up my cellphone, as I have been doing ever since, I looked at his social media accounts again.

I smiled bitterly when I found nothing new there.

Ivann..

His last post was the same day he broke up with me. It's a picture of him, seriously looking at the camera while his background was the sky. I looked at his caption again.

I'm going to fight so someday I can take you back.

"Hope everyone," laughed but full of my bitter tone before closing all applications.

I put my phone in the bag and quietly drank. It was my 4th shot when someone sit beside me. I stopped spinning the drink when I smelled his familiar smell.

Slowly I looked at my side. He was looking at me blankly.

The annoyance in my chest came to life but I just ignored it and turned my attention back to what I was drinking.

I was tired of looking for that damn mango for a few hours, I could not bear it because my brain would get tired because of thinking about how to kill the person next to me.

He ordered his own drink and quietly accompanied me.

I just took a deep breath and looked at him. My eyes began to glaze over.

Shocks! I need to stop, I do not have Cassandra with me now to find a driver or take me home.

"I'm still confused, why do you want to marry me?" I asked. Maybe alcohol has an effect so that's how I had the courage to talk to him.

I leaned on the counter and looked at him. He drank the wine from the glass before looking at me.

"Guess it," he said simply then stared into my eyes as if he was sending the answer from it.

Instead of answering my question I was just carried away by the admiration in his gray eyes.

I couldn't hold back his gaze so I averted my eyes. I feel like I'm falling into the absence of it.

"You.." I heard him mumbled that made me looked at him again.

Like a while ago, it was a blank stare. "Why do I feel like you had another reason for declining my offer?" he continued while intently looking at me.

I swallowed and looked away. I held the glass of wine tightly and quickly drank its contents.

"Are you afraid of me?" he asked that made me stilled for a bit.

My chest began to make noise with its loud, successive throbbing.

"Why?" he mumbled again when our eyes met.

I was about to say something when a girl came and kissed him in front of me.

I looked away, quickly grabbed my belongings and walked away despite of my dizziness.

Because I knew, you can be the destruction of me.
