"Stop your idiocy, Paris!" I acted like I didn't hear anything and stared blankly at my phone. My boyfriend is nowhere to be found. Tsk.
"When are you going stop expecting him to change?! Yes, it's your 3rd year anniversary but he's probably with another woman!" That's the time I raised my head to face my friend, Kisses.
Yes, I'm so pissed right now because I haven't received a single message from Hugo, but she don't need to rub it on my face. I stared at her with irritation. "Will you please stop interfering? It's my own love story, okay?" She just pouted.
"You're hurting, Paris. Hugo is not the only man in the world. You're incredibly beautiful, sexy and smart, many guys would die for you. I just don't get why you are putting up with Hugo when there's a lot of man better than him." I bit my lip to stop my tears from falling and hugged Kisses.
"Beautiful? Sexy? Then, why is he not contented with me?" My tears cascaded down my cheeks as I remembered Hugo's uncountable affairs.
"It's because he's an idiot. It's not you, it's him. Anyway, you're originally together because of your manipulative father, right?"
I dried my tears and look at her in the eye, "But I didn't expect to be too attached. We are together for three long years but all of it was fake affection to gain my father's trust, and I believe that I deserve more than that. More than just tool for success." I said with determination. She then smiled wickedly and I shivered. I think she's planning something. "Hmmm...First,break up with him.Second,go and find another guy!Easy as 1,2,3!" I sighed at her suggestion.
Like ,really? Easy thing to say but hard to do!"Can we take things slow? How about going to his condominium to see what he's up to? Maybe he has accepta-" But she didn't let me finish. "What?! I thought you are now sobered up from being too blind?!" I averted my gaze. "We'll just visit him..." She just rolled her eyes but in the end,"Ugh,fine!Let's go." My sweat gathered on my temple as we reached his unit.
I don't know why I'm so nervous. "Uhm, can we not go?" I'm backing out but Kisses pushed me to open the door, tsk. "You're the who insisted in coming here! So, go and get that spare key and open the goddamn door!" Convinced enough, I fished out the spare key of his condo from my bag.
My hands are shaking while turning the knob. The moment I opened the door, I froze. Clothes are scattered on the floor. I felt Kisses' tight hug from behind. "He is not deserving,Paris...Let's just go home." She pulled me to go outside but I remained unfazed. "What-" "I want to confirm it,Kisses. I want to wake up and face reality." She stared at me for a long time and sighed before she let go, "Okay...I'll wait for you outside..." I went infront of his room and slightly opened the door, and that's enough to confirm everything, "Ohh...Yeah.Faster,Hugo!" "Ugh, fuck!" I shut my eyes. Fuck you, Hugo. I ran outside with tears streaming down and hugged Kisses tightly.
"Forget about him and move on,Paris. Tonight, let's get wasted."
