Chapter 19: Chapter 19
BRUCE
Simoune had already left, so I asked Lucy if she wanted to get home. Lucy was asking what was going on as soon as we got in the car.
“What did you discover about Vince, Bruce?” Lucy asked
"Lucy, not now! If you find out about that, it will only hurt you for Simoune" I said
"I can understand that Bruce!! Just tell me, I want to know why you are so angry" Lucy said angrily
"Just! Not now!!!!!!!! I'll just hide what I know, one day Simoune will also know Vince's secret" I said
Even when Lucy is extremely naughty, I don't want to mention it first. Lucy stopped speaking during the journey because she might have sensed my distress as a result of what was happening. We got to her place and she said goodbye to me
"I'm about to enter the house! Whatever secret you say Vince has, I'll find out too!" Lucy said
After he said that, he closed the car door I can't explain to Lucy because I know that she will be shocked by what I say about Vince
— FLASH BACK —
“How are you, Buddy?" Tony asked
"I'm fine, how about you? Why are you suddenly calling?” I said to Tony
“Hmmmm, I had a question to you” Tony said to me
"What is that buddy?” I said
"Do you know Vince Ramos? Did you hear that he transferred to your school?" Tony said
"Yes, why?" I said
"My friend is hunting for him, and I told him I know you who attend the same school," stated Tony.
"What's wrong with him?" I asked
"Does he have a girlfriend at your school?" Tony asked
“Indeed, Simoune is also a buddy of mine.” I said
“Vince already has a family, and the man he became pregnant with is a property owner at the university he previously attended.” Tony said
“What? He already has a family?” I yell because I’m very shock
"Yeah, buddy, they are hunting for him now that he is not talking with the woman with whom he became pregnant; the woman's father is angry," Tony said.
“Then why was he expelled from school if the girl's father is also willing to defend her daughter?” I said
“Of course, it depends, as Vince was expelled due to the school's prefix.” Tony said
"Buddy, please just keep Simoune away while it's still early because his father is strong man, maybe Simoune will sympathize" Tony said
“After all, Vince is simple to find; all you have to do is report his name.” I said confidently
“Matter of fact, his name is Charles Garcia; browse through his Facebook and Instagram to find images of him with the girl.” Tony said
"Charles Garcia!? He's a fool!!!!” I said
— END OF FLASH BACK —
Because everything is difficult, I'm not sure how to tell Simoune. Simoune is difficult to convince that this is true because I know it will hurt her. I was right when I claimed Vince will only use her.
Instead of returning home because I couldn't be bothered to think, I headed right to the bar. I couldn't stop thinking about Vince while on the trip. He's a complete moron.
The bartender greeted me right away when I walked up to the bar
"Long time no see Bruce! It's too early to drink alcohol” Bartender said
“Certainly, there are many issues, and I just want to get away.” I said
‘You can be happy now because you drank alcohol, but the problem will still be there when you wake up tomorrow, despite the fact that I know it's good to drink alcohol.” Bartender said to me seriously
"I can't say it, which is why I want to flee." I said to him
"If you can't say it now, wait until the right time to say it." Bartender said
In the end, he is correct; all I need is the appropriate moment to tell Simoune everything. I punched Vince because I was just stunned, but I was also thrilled to do so. I drank all the alcohol I could find in the bar until it got dark because it was late and I kept drinking.
I went to the bartender right away and requested a bottle of alcohol when I realized I couldn't possibly drink more alcohol. So I left the bar because it was getting louder and louder and more people were coming in. I hopped in my vehicle and headed to Tagaytay. Due to my drunkenness, I nearly hit a tree. Fortunately, I still had my foot on the brake because my dad would kill be If I hit this car.As soon as I reached the top, I retrieved the alcohol I had purchased at the bar and got drunk. I remembered what Tony told me was Vince's real name
I thus instantly searched for him on Facebook and Instagram, and it is true that he is well-known. I wanted to choke him to death because I was so furious with him. I drank more and more as I followed him on Facebook and Instagram. I only drank booze nonstop until I passed out and dozed off on the hill.
SIMOUNE
I took him to the living room as soon as we arrived home and applied ice to his face. I'm still in shock about what Bruce did to Vince! Why did he treat Vince in that manner?
"Why do you think the reason why Bruce was able to punch you?" I asked Vince
"Maybe he's simply extremely furious at me since he didn't want me for you." Vince said
“Maybe he didn’t support in our relationship that’s why he acted like that” I said
But I also wonder why he is so angry with Vince. I'd never seen Bruce angry so I was surprised but more annoyed because of course he punched my boyfriend
After I put ice on his eyes, he invited me to go with him. So I immediately went up to the room to take a shower and apply some make up on my face. When I felt fine, I went downstairs to the living room and politely asked that Vince leave.
Nanny Lily got in the kitchen as I bid her farewell and informed her that we were leaving. After that, Vince and I went outside, and he put my helmet on right away. We then drove to his house. When we got to Vince's place, he turned on the TV right away and invited me to watch a movie.
“It's still early, so let's watch a movie first,” Vince said to me
“That’s a nice idea, I like it!” I said
"Let's eat outside so you can unwind after we watch," Vince said.
"Well, That’s okay with me. thank you." I said
We just watched in their living room while munching on appetizers and drinking beer.
VINCE
What Bruce knows about me is a mystery to me. Bruce, however, is certainly aware of my intentions.
"Why do you think the reason why Bruce was able to punch you?" Simoune asked
"Maybe he's simply extremely furious at me since he didn't want me for you." I said
“Maybe he didn’t support in our relationship that’s why he acted like that” Simoune said
Luckily, Simoune believes in me even if I have no idea what to say to her. She most likely believes what I say since she loves me so much and to help her forget what happened, I just invited her to watch a movie, and then we will eat outside. But how could she possibly ignore Bruce's punch's power? That's why I have a black eye; it appears that all of his strength is directed at punching me.
“It's still early, so let's watch a movie first,” I said to Simoune
“That’s a nice idea, I like it!” She said
"Let's eat outside so you can unwind after we watch," I said
"Well, That’s okay with me. thank you." She said
After watching, we fixed the food and left the house. Simoune was concerned about me and curious as to why Bruce had done that, so I gave her a helmet. Simoune gripped me closely while we were driving, but I could see she was thinking a lot. When we got to the restaurant, I made her sit down right away and placed our order.
“Hello, may I please get two iced teas, one burger steak, and one beef steak?” I said to the waiter
"Please take one burger steak, one beef steak, and two iced teas. That's it? " Crew said
“Yes, please” I said
After completing my payment, I went to the table where Simoune was seated.
"You're still thinking a lot," I said to Simoune
"Yes, I still can't believe what Bruce did to you" Simoune said
"Leave it, and forget the problem" I said to her
"I can't help but assume he punched you in front of a lot of people." Simoune said
“He might have been upset because I was being slandered and someone told him about it.” I said
"Maybe so," Simoune said
Simoune was upset, but I didn't explain what was going on. I don't want all my falsehoods to come out to her. She didn't know anything. We finished our meal, and I requested her to leave the table right away.
There is a lot of wind outdoors, and city lights are visible. I gave Simoune a hug and said that.
"Forget what happened" I said while hugging her
"Yes so I can avoid stress" Simoune said
After a while, we made the decision to return home. While we were on the trip, I felt her hug. Her embrace was full of doubts and inquiries.
I gave her a kiss on the lips when we reached our house and bid her farewell. Even as I hopped on the motorcycle, it waved at me.
I was thinking about possible outcomes while on the trip. Couldn't Mila's father be looking for me?! I am aware that Mila and I have committed a serious sin, and I know that her father will be furious with me.
When I got home a short while later, I sat down on the sofa. I don't feel like exploring early in the morning, so I need to something to help me to fall asleep
My phone rang, and Simoune's text came right away.
“Are you at home,” Simone texted
"Yeah, I know you're exhausted. Don't worry. Go to sleep." I replied
"Yeah you too, good night, I love you." Simoune texted
"I also love you." I replied to her
Simoune didn't respond after I finished speaking; perhaps she was too absorbed with what had happened this morning. To help me fall asleep more easily, I grabbed a drink from the refrigerator. I got drowsy after three bottles of beer, so I dozed out right away.
