Chapter 22: Chapter 22

I am having goosebumps while looking at him. His eyes are filled with desire. It seems like he transformed into a monster. A nympho monster. I am scared to death. I can't stop him, I can't ask for help, and that will not be a good idea to jump on a running car to get away. Well I can escape from him but I might not escape death if I jump and might get hit from another car or have terrible injury from jumping as his car is running furiously just like him. I silently utter a prayer. I will wait for him to reach his destination. It's either he will take me forcefully to his apartment or will pull over the car into a dark and deserted area. I will cross the bridge when I get there. I calm myself down and stayed alert.

"Don't worry, babe. You will definitely like it. Don't be such a feeling conservative virgin. I know you are the other way around. I know you, I have been following you secretly and I have been waiting for this for a long time so now is the perfect timing." he said.

"Really, well I am flattered that I have a stalker." I sarcastically said.

"It's admirer babe not stalker. A handsome guy like me who is obsessed with a woman is called admirer." he conceitedly said.

Even though I am scared at the moment it did not stop me from rolling my eyes from his arrogance. I am as well offended with what he just said. It is like he's saying that I am a wanton woman. I will not deny that I am one of those liberated modern women but I am not the type of woman who will just make out with someone I barely know. I never say a word. I just anticipated what will happen next and my first guess was right he did take me to his apartment because we are now in front of a building.

"You better behave and act like there's nothing wrong if you love your life." he warned.

"Yes. Don't worry I will not do something that you will not like." I said and I thank myself secretly that I did not stutter.

He smirk and went out of his car. He opened the door for me and act normally. I did the same. I smiled at him so he will not doubt or think that I am planning something. As we left the parking area I saw a familiar car. My ex-boyfriend's car. I stopped for a while to confirm and I am right I know his plate number and it is really his. The car is heavily tinted so you will not see whose inside but I am really sure that it is his car as it has the same plate number and model.

"What are you up to, don't just stand there. Move!" I bounced a bit hearing Max yell and it brought me back to my senses.

I gulped and celebrate as I can see a little spark of hope. So I continued walking but still looking at the car. I am sure that it's Derick thought I cannot see the person inside the car, but why is he here? Is he following me and why would he do that? Does he still love me?

"You are really testing my patience, you b*tch. Well I changed my mind let me just f*ck you here, you like it right since you are a wh*re disguising as a teacher." I was caught off guard when Max suddenly grabbed my hand and kissed me with full force.

Kissing me senselessly hurts but the words full of insults and he even include my profession hurts more. I feel like my heart was being punched a million times. Nobody taunt and insulted me like he did.

"How dare you to talk about me like that? You don't know me you b*st*rd. You don't have the right to say such things to me." I said between his kisses.

I was trying to get away by punching and hitting his chest but it is no use. He was so strong and it has no match with mine. I continued pushing him but he is like a very hard and strong great wall that there is no chance for me to destroy.

My hopes are raised up when I saw Derick came out of the car. I can see so much anger in his face while looking at Max. He walk fast and attacked Max. The latter did not notice the raging anger that is about to hit him. Derick was so furious and it is shown on the impact of his punch to Max. I shout when I saw Max flew with just one punch from my ex-boyfriend.

"You a**h*le!" he yelled. Max landed on the wall barely conscious.

Derick was not satisfied he walk towards Max and grab his collar and punch him over and over again. I was terrified with what I saw. I never saw Derick this angry. I was just standing there shocked with my both hands covered on my mouth.

"Stop, please! I won't fight, please stop hurting me." Max begged and fear is written all over his face. That coward. I want to laugh and taunt him.

"Stay away from my girlfriend, you understand!" Derick shouted on Max's face. With full of anxiety Max nod a lot of times.

"Yes, yes I will just let me go please." Max once again begged.

After hearing those words Derick let go of Max with force so he hit his back on the wall which earned a groan from the latter.

"Let's go." Derick said and he then grabbed my right hand.

He walk so fast toward his car so I was struggling catching up since he was holding my hand.

"Can you please slow down? I'm having a hard time walking here." I complained.

I still feel weak from the tragedy that was about to happen if he did not came to rescue me. He turned to face me.

"Are you that desperate to forget me, you just go out with someone you don't even know?" Derick angrily said while gritting his teeth.

I looked down, as tears fell from my eyes. This is what I get from being so desperate to get over him. I want to forget him, I want to ease the pain that he had caused me. Though deep inside I still love him so much and at the same time I loathe him.
